The best comedians I find, are not just funny, they are also very clever. Al Murray fits this remit.

The sillies take him the wrong way in the same way they took Alf Garnett wrong.

What, you mean he isn't really a pub landlord? Next you'll be telling me he is a parody character created by an Oxbridge educated liberal comic......

Jasmin Crockett rips into Trump regarding the pardoning of insurrectionists. She does a brilliant job. If you want to miss the introduction and get to the best bit, ffwd to 4mins 40, though it's worth watching all of it:

For the luddites, here's the transcript:
A lot to cover. So, I'm starting with
0:01
the AG. I want you to tell me whether or
0:04
not it's lawful or lawless. Ignoring
0:06
court orders.
0:07
That's lawless.
0:08
Impounding congressional funds
0:11
violates the law.
0:13
Invoking emergency powers when there is
0:15
no emergency.
0:16
Unlawful.
0:18
Sending troops without an invite.
0:20
Violates the law.
0:22
Covering for pedophiles. I just threw
0:24
that one in there. Okay, I'll move to
0:27
the next one.
0:29
What about revoking birthright
0:31
citizenship?
0:32
Violates the 14th amendment of the
0:34
constitution.
0:34
How about violating due process?
0:37
Violates the fifth and 14th amendment of
0:39
the constitution.
0:40
How about um what we see happening with
0:43
redistricting that would in some way
0:46
minimize if not delete the voices of
0:49
people of color as they are going
0:50
through and illegally um going through
0:52
this process. Is there a constitutional
0:54
amendment that you can think of that is
0:55
associated with that? Um, probably many,
0:58
but it is unlawful and unconstitutional
1:00
and unamerican.
1:02
Thank you. As well as um, can you tell
1:04
me if it is lawful or lawless to violate
1:07
free speech?
1:08
That's lawless.
1:09
Okay, sounds about right cuz you know,
1:11
we had to have a conversation about
1:13
Jimmy Kimmel. So, I'm going to say free
1:14
Jimmy Kimmel um, for sure. And hopefully
1:17
we will deal with the FCC uh, chairman.
1:20
But the reason that I wanted to go
1:22
through that long list, and that was
1:25
actually not even the half of it, is
1:27
because since this administration has
1:28
come in on January 20th, they have
1:30
engaged in some form of every single
1:32
thing that I said on that list, even the
1:34
part about covering for pedophiles. So
1:37
my question is, why are we sitting here
1:39
today? Number one, they already passed
1:41
their bootleg laws. And it's clear that
1:43
even the bill author is not well
1:46
informed about what his bill does
1:49
because as has already been stated, at
1:52
the at the age of 18, you are an adult.
1:56
So this idea that somehow 21 year olds
2:00
were now somehow juveniles under DC law,
2:03
is that accurate or inaccurate?
2:04
It was inac inaccurate. Misunderstood
2:07
the way the law works.
2:08
Correct. could not understand how to
2:10
read the law and decided that they were
2:11
going to rewrite the law and mess up the
2:13
law. And to be clear, we were talking
2:16
about judges being able to have enough
2:18
discretion to decide whether or not they
2:20
were going to give someone an
2:22
opportunity maybe to clean their record,
2:24
such as the bill author was given that
2:27
opportunity under Florida law because
2:30
his second felony was picked up when he
2:32
was 21 to be clear. So, he was older
2:35
than 18. And under this law, if you were
2:38
under what? 25. So 24 or under, then the
2:42
judges had discretion. Correct.
2:45
But only in certain kinds of cases, not
2:47
the most serious cases. And in fact,
2:49
that discretion was, as we know,
2:51
exercised very rarely. And it would have
2:53
been an opportunity had the Congress
2:56
wanted to talk with the folks who are
2:57
involved in applying that law and seeing
2:59
how it works to understand that this is
3:01
not a law that's out of sync with other
3:04
states and it's working.
3:05
Thank you so much. And the reason that
3:07
it matters is because now the gentleman
3:09
from Florida is trying to become a
3:10
governor. And chances are maybe DC once
3:14
they get statethood could have had a
3:15
future governor that had a second
3:17
chance. But since they don't want other
3:19
people to have chances that they've been
3:21
given, they want to just pretend like
3:23
they are bigger and better and better
3:25
than. So I will move on because I am
3:28
frustrated that we are having this
3:30
hearing when we know that this
3:31
administration can't take care of their
3:33
own business. Uh, as we know, they
3:35
recently illegally bombed yet another
3:37
Venezuelan boat and we may be headed for
3:39
a war. We know that uh this particular
3:43
president has decided that he wants to
3:44
shake down people um as relates to the
3:47
First Amendment because he has filed not
3:49
one lawsuit, not two lawsuits, but he
3:52
has filed numerous lawsuits. He filed a
3:55
lawsuit against the New York Times. He
3:57
filed one against the Wall Street
3:58
Journal, against CBS, against ABC,
4:00
against the De Mo Register. He is doing
4:03
all of this because he wants to quash
4:05
any speech that is not appreciative or
4:08
allowing him, which is pretty much
4:11
anything that's factual. So, let's talk
4:13
a few facts about these January 6 felons
4:16
that should still be incarcerated
4:17
because they went through the process.
4:19
But because they were doing things on
4:21
his behalf, of course, he wanted to let
4:23
them go. So they released more than a
4:25
thousand people who participated in the
4:27
insurrection on this government, many of
4:29
whom who had previous criminal records,
4:31
like Mr. Theodore Mindenorf, who was
4:34
convicted of predatory criminal sexual
4:36
assault of a child, or Mr. Peter
4:38
Schwarz, who had 38 prior convictions,
4:40
including one where he beat his wife by
4:42
repeatedly punching and biting her.
4:44
Trump also pardoned Mr. David Daniel,
4:47
who was convicted of production and
4:49
possession of child pornography. Trump
4:52
also pardoned Mr. Daniel Ball, who quote
4:54
threw an explosive device that detonated
4:57
upon at least 25 officers during the
4:59
capital riot. He also had a record for
5:01
quote domestic violence by
5:03
strangulation. I'm not done. Trump also
5:05
pardoned Mr. Andrew Taki, who sent nudes
5:08
to an undercover law enforcement officer
5:10
who was posing as a 15-year-old girl.
5:13
Mr. Casey Hopkins also received a pardon
5:15
from Trump. And Mr. Hopkins was
5:18
convicted of forcible rape. According to
5:20
court records, he quote have forcible
5:21
intercourse with the victim, choked her
5:23
to the point of impairing her vision,
5:25
banged her head into a wall, and
5:27
urinated into the victim's mouth as he
5:30
humiliated her. These are the people
5:32
that he decided to release in the
5:34
streets of DC. So, if anybody does need
5:36
to clean up DC, I would agree it is this
5:39
man because he is the one that is
5:41
causing half the crime that we have. Not
5:43
only is he participating in the crime,
5:45
but we know that he instigated the
5:47
insurrection. And if I did say that I
5:49
had one issue with the Biden Harris
5:51
administration, it is the fact that they
5:53
did not move forward and make sure that
5:55
this man was put where he should have
5:57
been put because the last time I checked
5:59
as a criminal defense attorney and Mr.
6:01
Attorney General, you may have a
6:03
different experience. But I never had a
6:05
defendant that had 34 convictions for
6:08
felonies and did not spend one day in
6:10
jail. Never in my life. And the last
6:13
time I checked, the party of law and
6:15
order is the only one that decided that
6:17
they would be out of order and decided
6:19
to nominate someone who was not only
6:22
indicted, but was actually convicted of
6:25
multiple felonies. That has never
6:26
happened in this country. And it is a
6:28
shame that we are dealing with it now.
6:30
And now he wants to tell y'all how to do
6:32
your jobs. Okay.

Supreme Court continues following the dictator's wishes, by overturning 90 years of precedent and allowing the orange rapist to dismiss congressional appointments.
They have set it for a full hearing, but it is clear the way they are going, both from this interim decision, but also other decisions made by them.
