Sarah Palin Quits Thing.
Götterdämmer-grift
This July 4th, Sarah Palin celebrated America by announcing that she is quitting the Internet-teevee-channel grift, because quitting is what Sarah Palin does best. In video and text announcements on the Sarah Palin Channel, Governor Quitterface declared that as of August 1, anyone can consume premium, previously paywalled Palin content, because Sarah Palin is getting rid of her paywall for freedom, and not because the Sarah Palin Channel was an economic failure, heavens no.
Palins video announcement tries to strike an upbeat tone, the way your folks did when they first told you that Fluffy would be living at a farm upstate, where he would have all sorts of room to run and chase chickens, doesnt that sound fun for Fluffy? Here is Palins statement in full, annotated with relevant links to the Fartknocker Archives:
Hey, I wanna thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support, and to let you know personally that were making all of my content free now! Its starting August 1st, everythings free, and just to let you know, that it is an honor to have you subscribe, really its been so illuminating and still is so illuminating to read and to respond to many of your insightful comments about current events, about so many things goin on in our world today.

When Yr Wonket first took on the terrible burden of The Fartknocker Report, Presented By Fartknocker, we did not believe this day would ever come. But our day of deliverance has arrived, and Yr Wonket is overjoyed, for not only does the dissolution of the paywall obviate the purpose of the Fartknocker Report, but also it means that Yr Wonket was right, dammit, and that we have made good on our early promise to watch the lights go out in the Sarah Palin Channels eyes.

(111,406 posts)I wonder if her loyal subscribers are going to have the brains to do a class action suit. Probably not, they're the people who thought they understood word salad sprinkled with catch phrases and buzzwords.
It's also after her latest howler, her sure-fire way to fix the California drought: build more reservoirs and "plants" because how could California be dry with all that water on the coastline?
One thing I did notice in her latest effort is that she's had some speech coaching and doesn't tend to screech like she did.
She's still monumentally ignorant and proud uvvit.
