rusty trumpbone 

A rusty trumpbone is a maneuver in the field of government appointments, where a candidate with hopes of high office rabidly licks the arsehole of a person in power while simultaneously and publicly wanking him off, in the hope of being appointed to a lucrative position in the resulting swamp.
Steven Bannon and Rudy Giuliani both give an impressive rusty trumpbone.

Jingly Keys 

1. A pleasing visual and acoustic distraction.
2. Therefore, metaphorically, an answer that tries to draw attention away from a difficult probing question, as if jingling some keys, especially when employed by a simple person who assumes that the questioner will be easily distracted.
1. I love the sound of jingly keys.
2. "You said last month that all Muslims should be banned from the US? Then you said you thought a Muslim was one of our finest citizens. Now you're saying the ban was a good idea again. Is this entirely consistent?"

"This is typical of people who hate America. We need strong leadership, Obama should resign."
"Nice try with the jingly keys sir, but I'd like an answer."

piss de résistance

The lowest point, or worst feature of something.
I've seen some bad artwork in this museum, but this last item really is the piss de résistance.

greenpeace

The left-wing equivalent of the Daily Mail. Despite their occasionally making a valid point, you have to wade through a mountain of bullshit, scientific illiteracy, alarmism, and extremist lies to find it.
"Despite the fact that nuclear power allows France to have the cleanest air in the world, we at Greenpeace are against it anyway beacuse... well isn't it to do with bombs or missiles or something?"

Appalling crime of forced sexual violence against another person. Except when it happens to a man in prison, in which case, in Western culture, it is apparently highly amusing.
