I’ve been watching Trump for 41 minutes longer than I’ve watched any political speech except Bush’ 2002 SOTU and the speech 10/2001, yes, I’ve been watching for 41m 10s.
I saw earlier that Nancy Pelosi told the Dems to not be childish. I was surprised she did it and even more surprised that she meant it. I figured they’d act like little bitches and Trump would be at 75% approval tomorrow.
He’s been trolling the Dems hard. I cannot believe they didn’t explode when he bashed extra-criminal illegal aliens and then Obamacare.
The GOP applauded his call to repeal Obamacare, I wonder if they’re going to be applauding when he starts letting them know he expects them to actually follow through.
“Paid family leave”, he is a Northeast liberal after all.
Now he’s in the pandering section. Have fun! (changed 20 seconds later!)
I wuz wrong, he wasn’t pandering, he was trolling using Dem constituencies. Bwaahahahahhahahahahahahaha
Oh, and this.
Brilliant!
You’ll finally have your pet’s attention when you try to take a picture.
On February 19, 2017, 60 Minutes broadcast a segment about Remington Arms Company, LLC and two tragic incidents which occurred in 2011. In narrating the details related to each incident, 60 Minutes omitted and misrepresented key facts which would have allowed the viewer to have an accurate and complete understanding about each. For example, 60 Minutes knew but did not disclose that both of the rifles in question were examined and tested by forensic scientists employed by each state’s crime lab and were found to be in proper working order. Remington provides this response to offer a more complete record of the relevant facts and a comprehensive overview of the incidents described in the story, and the recall which was at the center of the story.
They’re trying to ‘audi’ Remington. They should understand that Remington is not a EUnuch company.
Back in September, I testified before the House Financial Services Committee on the allegation that the Obama administration had paid Iran a ransom—at the time it was believed to be $400 million but it was later revealed that the figure was more than three times that amount—in cash for the release of American hostages held by Iran.
Like so many ‘revelations’ from the Age of Obama, we all saw this happen. In real time. The only people who didn’t know that are the ones who get their news from Minitrue.
Spanish inflation hit 3 percent in February compared to the same month last year…
Ministers also downplayed any fears for Spain’s economic recovery and believe inflation will be below 2 percent in the second quarter of the year.
“We don’t see it as a threat,” Marisa Poncela, secretary of state for trade, said of the inflation trend in an interview published in Expansion newspaper on Monday.
The funniest part is that they expect their serfs to believe it.
Rosie O’Donnell will lead an anti-Trump protest outside the White House Tuesday just before the president speaks to a joint session of Congress for the first time.
A prediction: when the “Wall” along the southern border begins to be constructed, the left’s professional activists will implement an extensive disruption campaign…
Protestors will stand in the path of construction, just at activists have, in the past, chained themselves to trees in the Northwest to stop logging.
At night, other operatives will target the Wall for destructive sorties. Those may occasionally include the use of light explosives, easily smuggled from Mexico.
It will be the American version of the French Resistance, only this time fighting for fascism against freedom.
Well, true so far as it goes. The backlash will not be pleasant. The funniest part will be when the really thuggish illegal types start raping and murdering the lefties who are “protecting” them.
Protest Is Increasingly Becoming Criminalized In America
Unfortunately, it appears this trend is about to get a lot worse following the DAPL protests and increased activism we’ve seen since Trump’s election. As The Hill reports:
No, the protests are increasingly becoming criminal in America, what with all the masks and molotovs and bricks and the glavin!
See, it’s the Hill, they have to obfuscate and lie. They would never mention that lefty-paid-for protests are just “free-violence” zones, not violence-free zones as lefties like to pretend.
/1000 words
False! replacing True!
Fools are getting tats based on Elizabeth, Fork-ed Tongue, Warren.
Persist We Much!
When I saw the headline on it I was wondering how they were going to change their Bernie tattoos into Fauxcahontas ones but lefty nitwits are getting tatoos based on a fake American Indian instead of a real socialist.
Eh, maybe 2017 just wants the crazy to come at a slower pace than 2016 so we’ll have to wait.
If Mark Cuban doesn’t find it funny, he’s using his influence to try to force you into swallowing your laughter…
Cuban, who has taken offense to the media’s coverage of his team in the past, charged the San Francisco-based company with confusing humor with disrespect, and threatened Bleacher Report until the tweet was gone…
When Levy came to the social media team’s defense in his response, arguing that “sometimes bold tag lines are used” to connect with Millennials, Cuban fired back with another threat.
“This is an issue where if it’s not down immediately, I’ll communicate with the millennials in the way I know how to,” he wrote. “Your choice.”
As soon as Bleacher Report deleted its tweet, which it acknowledged in a separate, cryptic post to Twitter, Cuban recalled his ammunition, deleting all of his own tweets that referenced the feud.
No, you had your hissy fit because you’re a totalitarian thug who doesn’t allow ungood thoughts.
A member of Mayor de Blasio’s transition team was released from jail after a top NYPD official received a phone call from the mayor inquiring about the arrest…
but Sgt. Ed Mullins, president of the Sergeants Benevolent Association, tells the Post: “If a guy has a warrant, you don’t let him go. Period. There is no discretion. What if you release him [and] he drives a block, blows a red light and runs somebody over and kills him? As a [police] supervisor, you have a lot to answer for. If you’re the mayor, I get it, you have friends. Is it supposed to happen? No – but don’t be hypocritical about it. De Blasio condemned the people involved in ticket fix. He passed judgment. You can’t have a double standard.”
You can’t? Where the hell have you been? Their standard standard is their only standard.
I hope he’s reelected. I love to watch smug, superior NYers vote for such a relentlessly, totalitarianly, hypocrat.
HOLIDAY ON THE SUN Nasa to launch Solar Probe Plus mission to the surface of the SUN to protect Earth from ‘huge solar event’
Seriously? My first thought was, “We can’t ‘reach the surface’ of the Earth with current materials tech, it’s sorta hot there.” Apparently the very first paragraph agrees with me.
The Solar Plus Probe will come within four million miles of the sun’s surface,
So 4 million miles is now “on”?
My second thought was that solar flares are bigger than the Earth. How the fuck are we supposed to affect something larger than the world when we can’t reach it?
Scientists hope it will unlock the mysteries of the Sun’s corona,…
And it is a prime spot for producing potentially devastating solar wind, flares and mass “ejections” that can reach Earth’s atmosphere.
So the headline should actual be Nasa is sending a probe most of the way to the Sun and are hoping to get some data on solar activity.
The truth I was talking about? “Journalists” are idiots who think we’re more stupider.
That’s what happens when you keep pretending Joe Biden isn’t an idiot. Sooner or later you become what you believe.
President Trump has invited the family members of those killed by illegal immigrants and the widow of Justice Antonin Scalia to attend his address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday night.
What’s true about that?
Trump is the best troll on or off the ‘tubes. They’re there to counter the lefties “Look at these good immigrants!” message (where the “good immigrants” invariably are either associated with/are terrorists or are associated with/are felons).
‘LACK OF POLITICAL WILL’ SEES ITALY STUCK ON ASSISTED SUICIDE LAWS
Oh, not the stupidity about “political will”, the fact that totally tolerant lefties do not even understand how there can be a differing viewpoint with validity.
If their current Most Important Issue There Is is not enacted, it’s always due to cowardice by the politicians.
They never seem to understand the reason for that “cowardice”. The idea that the people who voted for them do not want that particular lefty fever.
House Speaker Paul Ryan has put his reputation on the line by telling Sean Hannity that the major parts of the Trump agenda will be accomplished in the first two hundred days: “Inside the two hundred day window is the regulatory reforms we talked about, is the repeal and replace Obamacare; it’s the budget; it’s the rebuilding of our military; it’s tax reform… and infrastructure.” Meanwhile, Congressmen Dave Brat and Mark Meadows tell Sean they see no indication any of this will get done;
Exactly as expected. The We’re Better And Smarter Than You party are not going to give up all that sweet, sweet, corruption money easily.
I’ll tell you how funny, Onion-article funny unless Joe Biden and Liawatha also run. By that I mean most of the funny would be in the headline.
Okay, this has to be one of the funniest invites in the history of invitations.
In the new issue of Us Weekly, a Dancing With the Stars source reveals producers asked the 69-year-old politician (Hillary V) if she would be interested in strutting her stuff on season 24 of the ABC ballroom competition
Imagine Hillary trying to act human for the entirety of that program. Imagine Hillary attempting to dance. Imagine the gushing reviews the next day, “Hillary glided across the dance floor in a manner reminiscent of Ginger Rogers.”
I absolutely love that the suckophant wrote”strutting her stuff”.
Four French friends have launched a campaign aimed at getting former US President Barack Obama to become a candidate in the forthcoming French presidential election.
The title should have read, “The truth about the media’s worrisome war on Trump”, which is why I immediately thought ‘Stupid’.
This didn’t help.
In some ways Trump invited such abuse (from our unbiased media V).
Yeah, he went against the Golden Cow!!!!!! That required they start lying about him. It’s just axiomatic, right?
He writes some good stuff like this
Meanwhile, media members who blithely passed along Obama’s serial lies about, among many things, keeping your doctor and health plan under Obamacare, are now on Alpha Alert for Trump untruths, visibly relishing each one.
But fails to mention that many of the Trump’s Untruths!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! are not really untrue, just “accurate but mostly false” according to Snopes or “True but deserving of 3 pinocchios” according to the Lying Liars Who Lie at the Wash Post.
Here’s where he goes off the rails.
The Washington media need to stop whining, get off their high horse and do the jobs they chose,
Yeah, see…most of our fine journolistic betters chose to be ‘journalists’ to Change The World!!!!!!!!!, not to provide information.
Earlier, I had an impression that journalism was meant to mirror exactly what is happening in society, giving people a reflection of what they’re doing. This course has made me realize that there are always solutions … and writing about such stories can make journalism a tool for social change.
They don’t give information, they give affirmation, disinformation and misinformation to promote their agenda. Pretending otherwise is just ignorant.
The father of a US Navy SEAL killed in a raid in Yemen criticized President Donald Trump’s decision to give the go-ahead and called for an investigation in an interview published Sunday.
I am not looking forward to a rerun of Mother Sheehan. It’s so depressing watching the media take advantage of someone going through something that traumatic.
Schrap, the victim, and a group of friends gathered at his home on Aug. 27, 2016, to commemorate the death of an Insane Clown Posse fan — or Juggalo — who died last year…
…allowed Schrap to cut her arm with a machete and to drink her blood as part of the ritual. She then volunteered to have her right pinky amputated…
put the woman’s pinky in his freezer and said “he would cook it and eat it later,”
Since she agreed to it, I do not think you can call her a “victim”.
This is really the only surprising part of the article.
The woman told investigators she wasn’t under the influence of drugs or alcohol during the ritual
So…liar or just a really, really, really stupid person?
I know, it’s so hard to tell anymore.
I saw this utterly 2016 story about a transgender teen wrestler competing against girls and winning and thought, “That’s fucked up. They shouldn’t let a boy wrestle in a girl’s league (unless it’s the Jello-league), but that wasn’t what was happening.
Debates rose up among coaches, parents, and fans about whether Beggs, who is transitioning from female to male, should be able to compete in the Class 6A 110-pound girls division after undergoing testosterone treatments. UIL rules forbid Beggs from competing against boys.
That’s a hate-crime right? I mean, they’re forcing this poor ‘boy’ to pretend he’s a girl! Basing gender on genitalia is a hate crime!
Some people ask me how I do my post so effortlessly, seamlessly and with such good spelling and puntuation so I’ve decided to post a picture of me posting this post. I know, I’m a giver that way.
He should let loose his inner monkey/chucacubra thing
and asked, “What would Howard Stern do?”
Howard won an award that he thought was ridiculous and just a way to get him to come to their award show to up the ratings, so he sent Beetlejuice to accept it.
Trump should have sent someone totally ridiculous that the fine, tolerant, ignorant, hate-filled assholes of our fine media would not be able to get OUTRAGED!!!! over even as (s)he made a mockery of their little circle-jerk. Like some drug-addled, transgender, meth-addicted hooker.
Trump doesn’t miss many opportunities but he surely blew one with that. Oh well. Maybe next year. You don’t want to use your best stuff too early in your term.
I wonder, as they’re sucking their own dicks/”Spotlighting The Best Political Journalism Of The Past Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”, will they highlight Catherine Herridge’s work on uncovering Clinton Corruption?
Sorry, I should warn you when I write something that ridiculous. I’m sure they’ll be too busy applauding some lying asshole who made up one of the fake news stories that wasn’t immediately debunked.
Speaking of fake news, with thanks to Paco
Wash Post hires John Podesta! for that hard-hitting, non-partisan, political commentary we can expect from your average, dishonest, lying, equivocating, bullshit-artist Clintonista. That should go a long way in repairing their reputation!
But this isn’t just about one Minitrue outlet, it’s about two!
From the Hill
Podesta became a household name after emails from his personal account, some of which were critical of Hillary Clinton, were dumped before the election by WikiLeaks. The Trump campaign seized on some of them as evidence of collusion between some members of the media and the Clinton campaign.
The Hill knows that collusion talk is just crazy talk! And they have John Podesta to back them up!
Tools.
I keep seeing this Tucker Carlson quote and people, elite people from elite schools, seem to think it’s “profound” or some other stupid shit like that.
“Look, it’s really simple,” Carlson says. “The SAT 50 years ago pulled a lot of smart people out of every little town in America and funneled them into a small number of elite institutions
Ummmm, no. Those universities have always taken the rich and elite, so people who weren’t so connected did not go to those “elite” schools to be all elitified.
Unless by “small number” he’s talking about a few hundred. Just because someone had a 1300 on their SAT (1400 used to be the max, 700 english/700math) that didn’t mean they were going to Harvard or whatever other ‘elite’ school he’s talking about. Lots of those people ended up at state schools because they couldn’t afford to be ‘elite’, just smart.
Those are the ‘truths’ people from ‘elite’ schools tell themselves, they’re better and smarter than the rest of us.
They don’t get around the hoi polloi much so they don’t risk having a farmer in Upper Nowhere, Flyover Country show them that perhaps they aren’t all that “elite”.
Yeah, I have a chip on my shoulder over smug, superior idiocies like that. I was going to ignore it but I keep seeing it. On blogs of people who went to the “elite” schools Tucker’s talking about.
In conclusion, you can tell Tard Dog is getting old. These birds are fighting over his leftover dry-food. As he sleeps less than 3 feet away on the other side of a palm tree.
Yes, a dove eats his food.
First the bunny rabbits used to just hop on by while he was sleeping and now birds are fighting over his food.
He should be embarrassed, but he isn’t. He’s asleep.
If you could petition the Lord with prayer, we wouldn’t be so screwed.
Or perhaps…. this is the trip. The best part.
That’s kinda scary.
In Sweden, we see the police are just too darn busy to be investigating crimes where there’s no chance of conviction! (Google translation)
A group of men filmed themselves when they raped a woman and then put the movie on Snapchat. Tots that there is film of the assault where the perpetrator’s name is mentioned, and their faces are visible, are not investigated the assault of the police.
– We are not staff of the moment, explains police investigators Therese Ottosson for free times.
Now, I’m gonna bet that rape did not get reported, I know that’s how the Brits lower crime, so maybe this makes more sense.
But as to Sweden being the “Rape Capital of the World” due to recent immigration, I’m not seeing it (chart stolen again from those gullible Swedes):
(this chart, stolen from Geoff who stole it from a helpful Swede)
Yeah, ‘number of reported…’. The one above, with full recording, was not “reported”.
The overnight violence in Les Ulis followed earlier clashes between police and protesters at the weekend, in which several dozen people were detained.
In Les Ulis three police cars were damaged, French media report.
Tension has gripped some Paris suburbs since 2 February, when a man called Theo was allegedly beaten up and raped.
It’s another excuse for the usual car-b-que but with extra firebombs and vandalism. Did the cops really rape some kid? That seems unlikely. It is something the people rioting normally do so convincing them someone else acts the way they do shouldn’t be hard.
Front National leader Marine Le Pen has again surged in the polls in France as she attempts to become the country’s first female president.
As we all know, French armies are victorious only when not led by a Frenchman,but they’re going to be led by a French woman. The last time that happened they kicked the shit out England.
Then they burned her at the stake (for cross-dressing funnily enough). But I figure she has more to worry about being burned at the stake before she takes office.
I’ve been trying to figure out what the hell is going on in Romania. They had their protests that lasted for a couple weeks. The gov’t said, “We’re gonna stop that bill that allows to take bribes!” Much to my surprise they then actually did it! I still think they’re doing a little flim flam, but now people are protesting for the gov’t.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has now demanded that the Portland Police Department stop using riot gear in response to protests and potential riots.
Sarah Armstrong, spokeswoman for the ACLU of Oregon, said that when police show up in riot gear, it escalates the situation and that police policies should aim for de-escalation, according to KGW. These comments come on the tail end of when police showed up in riot helmets to the illegal Portland Resistance protest on Monday. That protest was partially sponsored by Black Lives Matter PDX.
Let Seattleans live in the shit they fling.
At first I wondered why the Lollipop Guild got so militant when someone told me that’s the name for Seattle. Fuck em.
Dams are a relic of the Industrial Age…. They’re particularly ill-suited to the era of extremes—heat waves, floods and droughts—that climate change has brought on.
The Pacific Institute’s Peter Gleick said: “Even if we built a couple of dams, we don’t have water to fill them. We’re tapped out. The traditional answer of building more reservoirs won’t solve our problems.” Building additional reservoirs does little when there’s no snow or rain to fill them.
Indeed, so certain were they of their “facts” that California Governor Moonbeam mocked those who thought the infrastructure should be shored up:
I’ve never heard of such utter ignorance. Building a dam won’t do a damn thing about fires or climate change or the absence of moisture in the air and ground of California. If they want to run for president, they had better do eighth grade science before they made such utterances.
They learned nothing from the 30 Years War. Religious extremism always comes back to bite you on the ass!
Analysts at the Homeland Security Department’s intelligence arm found insufficient evidence that citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries included in President Donald Trump’s travel ban pose a terror threat to the United States.
First, that was Obama’s list. But that’s not important, they want you to believe that this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, thi…(you get the point)never happened.
Our fine social, moral, political and intellectual betters rely on our having no memory.
Why the MSM Is Ignoring Trump’s Sex Trafficking Busts
She could have just written,
“Because they feel their duty is to make him look bad no matter the lies they commit or the deeds they omit.”
Truthfully, I didn’t read it but I’m sure it’s all erudite and learned and shit. Sometimes brevity is the soul of wit.
Via This Ain’t Hell (but we can see them from here), this is all about the fucked up. Some cops went to a 90 year old guy’s home for a ‘welfare check’ at night.
“They went from window to window shining lights in,” Ronnie Roberts said describing what he saw when he arrived at the Craig’s home…
When he arrived, he says he says volunteered to go up to the house and make contact with Eugene Craig whom he told deputies he knew. But Roberts says he was told to stand back by deputies…
Roberts says he was standing on the driveway when he saw four officers try to break down the front door. Fail. Then run around back and Roberts said he heard them kick in the back door to the garage.
The guy heard this and grabbed a gun to see what was happening, when the cops broke in they killed him.
This quote sums up the 21st century pretty well.
“There are certain things that allow us to immediately violate the Fourth Amendment and go into a location. That’s exigency, which is basically a fancy word for emergency,” said Kelly. “In some of those cases it’s better to kind of just walk away and come back and then keep reassessing. Use alternative means to maybe find (information.)”
“Go talk to the neighbors have you seen this person?…
Yeah see, as we saw earlier you told the neighbor to fuck off. They should not have done what they did and now this guy was murdered in his own home because they were tactical operators with a tactical operations order to operate tactically.
I hope they are all fired and whoever was in charge gets criminally charged.
It won’t happen. Sovereign immunity you know.
Which makes me pissed off when some cop claims they’re held to a higher standard than a civilian.
Hundreds of people including Hollywood stars have held a rally in Beverly Hills ahead of the Oscars on Sunday to denounce President Trump’s immigration policies.
I look forward to hearing about all the passion, stupidity, willful ignorance and moral relativism at the Oscars. On Monday.
I’ve never watched the Oscars, but this year I’m not watching it for an entirely different reason!
An 18-stone (250lbs V) jazz fan who sued for compensation after an accident at Ronnie Scott’s was fat, drunk and careless in her high heels, a judge found.
Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) predicted on Tuesday that Republicans will split with President Trump within months unless the administration changes course.
And yet, Trump keeps not doing what the We’re Better and Smarter Than You Party wants!
Their failure theater over Obamacare is going to be interesting. Do Americans actually elect Democrats because the GOP won’t repeal Obamacare?
That would make me laugh my ass off as I cringe in horror.
Bannon claims Trump will do the one thing I really, really, really think would make Trump’s POTUSy a success if it’s all he does.
The reclusive mastermind behind President Trump’s nationalist ideology and combative tactics made his public debut Thursday, delivering a fiery rebuke of the media and declaring that the new administration is in an unending battle for “deconstruction of the administrative state.”
As Trump does that he’ll have both the establishment pricks in the GOP and the Dems arrayed against him with a few Congresscritters and most of non-hate-filled America with him. I hope it’s enough, at least Trump’s peeps know the deal.
Stephen K. Bannon, the White House chief strategist and intellectual force behind Trump’s agenda, used his first speaking appearance since Trump took office to vow that the president would honor all of the hard-line pledges of his campaign. (snip)
“If you think they’re going to give you your country back without a fight, you are sadly mistaken,” Bannon said in reference to the media and opposition forces. (Democrats and much of the GOP V) “Every day, it is going to be a fight.”
Yup, they are not going quietly into that good night. It’s up to us to drag them kicking, screaming and banging their sippy cups on their highchairs out the door.
The leader of the anti-immigration Freedom Party was convicted of discrimination and inciting hatred over a 2014 incident in which he led supporters to chant that they wanted “Fewer! Fewer! Fewer!” Moroccans in the Netherlands.
I can understand, they’re such pillars of the Dutch community what with their tolerance and love of all!
Geert Wilders in hiding because totally tolerant, misunderstood Dutch immigrants want to kill him for his views and they keep trying.
A Dutch secret service agent who was part of the team responsible for protecting Geert Wilders, the frontrunner in next month’s election, has been suspended on suspicion of leaking details to a criminal organization, the secret service said on Wednesday…
Secret Service chief Erik Akerboom said he could not confirm the man’s identity but confirmed media reports he has a “Moroccan background”.
Doesn’t he understand that they only become violent because of him? I mean, he likes his totally intolerant country and they want it to be Islamically tolerant! It’s all his fault!
That law was from back when they believed in Christianity. Now they believe in idiotic leftism so the only religion that you cannot blaspheme is Islam (they call it “hate” when you blaspheme against idiotic leftism).
The imam is also seen advocating an eye-for-an-eye policy and saying: ‘If someone kills a Muslim, then they should be killed.’
He tells his pupils that if anyone abandoned their religion they, too, should be killed.
In July 2014, Ismail again sparked controversy after another video appeared of him calling upon God to ‘destroy the Zionist Jews.’
Important Dutch are “shocked!” there’s hate going on in that mosque.
Social Democrats spokesman Dan Jorgensen told TV2: ‘This is deeply, deeply unacceptable. That there are even people like this that have these kinds of ideas is insane.’
And Marcus Knuth from the ruling Venstre party told the broadcaster: ‘What is so shocking is that there are so many cases involving this mosque and that they just keep coming. That is almost the worst thing – that they haven’t learned anything and still practise these types of things and encourage this Stone Age behaviour.’
They don’t care enough to close the mosque, the Germans charged him with hate crimes, and they fined him! Almost $2000!!!!!! I bet it took 4 Dutch welfare checks to pay that fine!
I love Brave Comics!!!!!!!!! Especially the pic of the totally brave and non-hate-filled erstwhile comediette Sarah Silverman.
Sex, death, race, religion — seemingly nothing’s off-limits to comedians. Only one subject seems taboo, even for the likes of Louis C.K. and Chris Rock: the Holocaust…
People told me I had a great idea and I should let them know when [other] people invested,” she says of her film, which premieres March 3 and focuses on humor in and out of the Nazi concentration camps.
They’re going to make Holocaust jokes now and will revel in the opprobrium heaped on their brave heads!!!! They’re showing the uptights what’s what and who’s who!
Jokes on Islam you ask? That’s not taboo, that’s not funny!
When you can make fun Mohamed (without calling him “The Prophet”) get back to me. Until then, yawn.
Oh, and fuck you you hypocritical, whiny, willfully ignorant bitches with your “bravery” and idiocy.
So a white guy criticized Magic Johnson (without ever mentioning race, just competence)
“What you’ve got here, though, is a testament to the power of fame. And a testament to the power of a modicum of charm,” Le Batard said. “Because Magic Johnson is charming. But Magic Johnson was given a late-night television show because he’s famous and charming. Failed in 11 shows. Magic Johnson was given a head coaching job of the Lakers because he’s famous and charming. Failed in 16 games. Magic Johnson, not interesting as a broadcaster, given broadcasting opportunity after broadcasting opportunity, because he’s famous and charming.
“And now, he gets to run the entire Lakers organization because he’s famous and charming. But he wasn’t good at any of those jobs I just mentioned, and he got all of those jobs, bypassing a whole lot of people who are more qualified, because he’s famous and charming.”
So black guys at ESPN know that “famous and charming” is codeword for “nigger”.
“I’m going to read between the lines, I’m going to read between the lines on this one,” he said. “To me, he saying because he’s a black dude, that’s the way I look at it …”
While fellow host Jorge Sedano countered Keyshawn Johnson’s accusation, repeatedly trying to assure him he knows Le Batard and he’s not a racist, two more sports celebrities chimed in and supported Johnson.
Mychal Thompson, a former teammate of Magic Johnson’s on the Lakers in the late ’80s and early ’90s, called in to the show to shoot down Sedano’s counter-claims.
“Sedano, you’re pissing me off. You gotta stop defending this Le Batard,” Thompson said. “How dare he question Magic’s credentials and qualifications, when this man is a basketball genius. What does he want? … That ticked me off when I heard that, I’m with you, Key, that was some kind of veiled racist comment there.”
I just ignore sports commentary on TV anymore, they’ve gone the “I’m a fucking asshole” route like Jim Rome or Michael something Smith added into the racism and Obama tongue-baths for the last 8 years it just makes for unwatchable TV.
In the never-before-released footage, Chung described how he feared for his life after he publicly admitted to funneling money from Chinese officials to President Bill Clinton’s 1996 reelection campaign.
He also claimed Democrats pressured him to stay silent about his dealings with the Clintons and said the FBI tried to enlist him in a sting against a top Chinese general at a Los Angeles airport.
I just hope Trump and Sessions are paying attention too because we know the Dept. of “Justice” is still uninterested in going after Clintons for their felonious behavior. We watched this happen in real time in the 90s and our fine media betters were totally uninterested so the DO”J” could safely ignore it.
One of the reasons I don’t fit in that often is that I look at what I think is right without worrying about what other people think I should think.
Maxine Waters admits lying to get Social Security card (you can add as many exclamation points as you deem necessary, I had 23 but deleted them)
I saw that and thought, “She’s an illegal alien?”
Waters, one of 13 children, said, “We were all looking for jobs during the summer.
“We would put our ages up. I was about 14 years old and I lied, said I was 16 so I could get a Social Security card.”
She was a hard-working teenager.
I’m not sure what happened to her between then and now (I’m guessing the Democratic Party), but that’s the one thing I would praise that hateful, hate-filled bitch for.
So good for you Maxine Waters, you dishonest, willfully ignorant and stupid fuckhead!
In conclusion, I had no idea Tard Dog was even in Alaska. I thought he was just sleeping on the other side of the cactus.
In his defense, they were really good cupcakes.
{deleted part of the ESPN part above I thought I had deleted before I posted. it was mostly profane. I don’t like racist assholes]
Now, as we’re in our second violent year of violent lefties (BLM and the recent riots for instance) responding to the violent rhetoric that’s been emanating from the left for years, our fine lefty betters know who’s at fault and who are the real violent ones.
The rise in poisonous political rhetoric is threatening to roll back human rights and creating a more dangerous world, Amnesty International has warned.
Singling out President Trump and the leaders of Hungary, Turkey and the Philippines, it said fear mongering is leading to levels of hate and fear not seen since the 1930s, when Adolf Hitler rose to power.
You know, fuck you. Lumping Hitler, Sultan Erdogan and the Philippines in with the others is ridiculous.
Hungary is trying to keep Muslims ‘refugees’ out, they’re enforcing their laws and protecting their border. That’s one of the reasons for a country you know.
Speaking in Paris, Salil Shetty, Secretary-General of Amnesty International, said: “It was a year when a poisonous political rhetoric of ‘us versus them’ surged across the world.
No, it’s the year when people who are replying to the ‘us versus them’ rhetoric of lefties and Islamists are gaining power that the forces of love, tolerance and mostly peace decided we would never get.
Daniel Nunnally Jr. told WRIC-TV that he was in his weight-training class Monday at Dinwiddie (Virginia) High School when the “assistant principal came in and pulled me out of class and told me that I had to go outside to take both flags off my truck so there is no controversy or anything.”
The flags in question? The Gadsden (“Don’t Tread on Me”) flag — and the American flag.
It has a sorta happy ending but nobody was fired, I still have dis belief that people are happy Americans get to fly American flags. That’s not right. They should be celebrating that ass principle being fired. Dis belief is my only belief.
Peter Neumann, an Austrian counter-terrorism official charged with working to combat violent extremism under the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) attracted criticism this week after stating that both the (Muslim) Brotherhood and (Iranian Republican Guard Corps) are not terrorist groups and should not be formally designated as such.
Dat belief just doesn’t make any sense. I’m of dis belief that anybody can say it.
Who has dis belief that China is so brazen in the South China Sea?
China, in an early test of US President Donald Trump, is nearly finished building almost two dozen structures on artificial islands in the South China Sea that appear designed to house long-range surface-to-air missiles, two US officials said.
Yup. They built those islands and are pretending dis belief that people are upset so they have to defend them!
I have dat belief that they are looking to get into a war somewhere.
The United States deployed the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson to the disputed waters of the South China Sea on Saturday as part of maritime “routine operations.”
China better not have dis belief that Mattis will flinch or they will have dis belief when all their new islands tip over from all the Marines on them.
Honcharenko said he was informed by Ukrainian law enforcers that a certain separatist group intended to kidnap him,..”This was a special operation. This morning, my abduction was staged….
The group planned to inflict grievous bodily harm on me,” Honcharenko said. …The MP explained that those were the SBU operatives who “abducted” him earlier this morning, only to send out a message to the “customers” claiming that they could proceed with the next stage of their plan, that is a violent stage.
He added that the perpetrators took the bait and came to an agreed location, bringing acid and various devices for torture. The men were detained at the scene, while searches at various premises are underway.
Seriously? Now, they don’t mention that tsarist forces were involved, but Putin has been upset about his tsarling being deposed since the Maidan Protests (here I have dis belief that Obama sided with the forces of Putin’s tsarling, what can I say, I was young and naive) so you know who was behind it.
Mexico has dat belief that Trump’s America gives un merde what they think. I have dis belief they even had the balls to say this.
A defiant Mexican official on Wednesday said the country “will not accept” a new immigration plan from the White House and will even take the issue to the UN, according to a report.
What’s with dis belief that Mexico can angrily tell America what our immigration laws will be?
I have dis belief that Mexico’s gov’t and citizens are working on Trump’s 2020 reelection team. That’s funny.
I wonder how many people have dis belief that Project Veritas released 119 hours of audio from CNN just to embarrass them for being lefties.
In order to expose media malfeasance within CNN, we need your help transcribing, investigating and connecting the dots on these 200+ hours of audio. Leave comments, upload transcriptions or contact us with your tips below.
I have dat belief that they did it not just to embarrass the fakenewsers for being lefties but also by forcing them to either report on what people find or pretend Breaking News!!! never happened.
I do have dat belief that Foxnews will start having FOXNEWS!!!!! ALERTS!!!!!! every couple minutes.
Remember when Obama and co. wouldn’t let South Korea return Garands and M1 Carbines to the US and I was pissed off?
A House measure introduced last week would override the Obama-era State Department’s embargo on thousands of M1 Carbines and Garands long blocked from import.
A House measure introduced last week would override the Obama-era State Department’s embargo on thousands of M1 Carbines and Garands long blocked from import.
The legislation comes as the latest installment in an effort by Republican lawmakers to change the 2009 decision to block the importation of no less than 87,000 rifles donated to South Korea and now surplus to that country’s needs.
I’m of dat belief that it’s not failure theater. If it is, I’ll be in dis belief and realize GOP pols are just too cynically assholish to not be Democrats.
I’m not sure if it’s me or if the world is themeless. I keep starting with one and then having it fall apart. Oh well. See if you can guess the theme I thought I had.
In our wordcloud below is “drunken chariot racing” but the link has absolutely nothing to do with drunken, chariot or racing. Which made me think that wordcloud is judging us! As if we’re the kind of window-lickers who’d be all into drunken chariot racing so it just threw it in.
Then I realized, a good idea is a good idea so here’s part of the chariot race from The Perils of Gwendolyn.
You can’t tell from that clip, but that movie has the highest boobs/frame ratio of any movie I’ve ever seen. If you’re into that sort of thing.
So… what happened to “The First 100 Days” on Foxnews? It used to be on at 5pm here (7 east coast), but now it’s Tucker Carlson. His first 100 days are not over and that show started in January so it cannot have been 100 days. Every time I flipped over there was Martha and some, acknowledged, Dem operative bashing Trump, so I have to figure the ratings were pretty low because MSNBC and CNN are much sadder and a whole lot funnier.
In the now, apparently Trump is thinking about doing recess appointments to get around the GOP Senate to confirm his appointments.
I’m torn on that one. On the one hand, it’s fucking hilarious he has to do this to get around the slow-rolling of Republicans. On the other hand, that’s a slimy thing that we do not need to have regularized. Which leads us to the gripping hand, Czars! They do not need to be confirmed, I’m not even sure if they’re officially appointed. I think they just show up and start working.
The ‘recess appt’ thing has to be a troll. I prefer the Before! so I’d like a Czar troll.
Having the NYTimesWashPostCNNABCCBSNBCetc. start freaking out about ‘Czars avoiding confirmation are the end of the Republic!!!!!!” so Trump can comment on the 39 Obama sub-Czars wikipedia claims avoided that messy, tax-cheating-finding, confirmation process would be hilarious.
To make sense of this next link, you have to understand Trump is a recent Republican. He thinks more like a Democrat.
WELL, YES: Trump isn’t really campaigning earlier than other recent presidents. He’s just more upfront about it.
The “permanent campaign” was invented by (or maybe “for”) Bill Clinton a quarter century ago, and for better or worse it’s now a permanent part of our political landscape.
WELL, NO: Bush didn’t campaign constantly. He promoted himself, but he didn’t campaign. He was a breath of maturity in the office that Clinton and Obama did their best to ensmallen.
As for “He’s more upfront about it.”… No. The media is more upfront about attacking him for it. He’s not doing anything different from what Clinton and Obama did. Hell, he’s less upfront than Obama who traveled to fundraisers across the country all the freaking time.
While I’m yelling at Instapundit, this always bothers me. Most of the article linked is pretty accurate.
The basic division in American politics today is not over the merits of President Trump. Many of those who voted for him believed that he lacked the moral grounding and gravitas that great Presidents must ultimately draw on. The division is between those who think that before Trump, things were going just fine and the American elite was doing an excellent job, and those who blame the rise of Trump on the failures and blindness of the so-called “meritocratic elite” who, they would argue, have been running the country into the ground.
No argument from me so far. Here’s where we go off the tracks.
In foreign policy, the United States has had two failed presidencies in a row. Our grand strategy of…democratization of the Middle East would and could solve the terrorism problem—and so did their degreed and esteemed advisers and the commentariat.
We had won in Iraq. We were almost done. As anybody with a brain told Obama, he had to fucking leave some dam Marines, A-10s and Apaches there, similar to how we treated Germany. That way, ISIS would have been stain in the desert when they were first chased out of Syria in their Toyota pick-ups instead of getting stronger and taking over much of the region.
Now: Israeli soldier gets 18 months in jail for shooting a wounded, Palestinian terrorist. Palis are all upset it’s only 18 months. Apparently, helping suicide attackers suicide is verboten in their religion. You need to let them blow themselves up I guess.
Before: Palestinians have a different view on successful suicide bombers being killed as they open an exhibit of a suicide bombing from the previous month. After an outcry from people who give the PLO money, the Arafish canceled the exhibit. Yes, it was built less than a month later. Too soon?
Doesn’t really fit, but this is another in a very long series. We’re talking Days of our Lives long.
At UCLA Law School last week, a squad of student “thought police” tried to ban my book, Failing to Confront Islamic Totalitarianism: From George W. Bush to Barack Obama and Beyond. They don’t want you to know the book even exists, let alone what’s inside it. And the UCLA administration enabled them. This ominous episode underlines how students are learning to be contemptuous of intellectual freedom.
And since it’s California, they went the extra mile. It happened at
…a panel discussion at UCLA Law School on the vital importance of freedom of speech and the threats to it.
The funniest part is that this State-Sponsored, Law Fucking School does not see the irony of students learning how to be law talking folks at a gov’t-affiliated Law Fucking School stomping on speech they do not like and not being immediately and humiliatingly slapped down by either the faculty or the admin (both?) at the gov’t-run Law Fucking School. More, they think anybody who does see irony is a hating hater who hates.
Yeah, that bothers me a lot. At least some of these people are likely to be future lawyers, politicians and judges.
Our best hope is if all the different flavors of fascist assholes start killing each other before they start trying to kill the rest of us.
“The Court finds these allegations sufficient to establish that CNN was acting recklessly with regard to the accuracy of its report, i.e., with ‘actual malice,” the order reads.
That could be really horrible with possibly good results.
CNN begged for it. As did Rolling Stone. As are a bunch of others. Expect a slew of these as precedents are set.
I really don’t like the idea of the US have British-style libel laws. US law is an attempt to fix what the Brits got wrong.
On the other hand, maybe they’ll stop being fucking lying sacks of fucking shit.
I’m really of the opinion that it’s a terrible precedent and I really, really, really wish our fine Minitrue betters did not make it nearly a requirement but since they did, I hope it has a salutary effect. Or should that be “salutatory affect” so people can have something easy to make of me for? Besides constantly ending sentences of prepositions, that is.
These might be a good metaphor for the people who supported Trump and/or people who supported Hillary.
The worst of those outbreaks were known as cocoliztli, from the word “pestilence” in the Aztec language Nahuatl.
It’s during one of these cocoliztli, between 1545 and 1550, that up to 80 percentof the native population is believed to have perished…
Now, the Max Planck researchers have presented evidence that the cause of the outbreak could have actually been a primitive and deadly form of salmonella.
The first glaring tell, “up to” and “believed to be…” are codewords for “Yeah, I’m pulling this out of my ass.”
At one point I got really into Aztec history after reading Jennings’ Aztec. It’s a very good book, as are most of his books, I haven’t read the sequels to Aztec, and it’s also, like all his books, surprisingly well researched and accurate.
That salmonella deal is an interesting idea that seem implausible to me. They list the plagues sweeping the area and the theory I’ve always seen is that it was just a cumulative deal with no real “This is the one!!!!”
I figure they just need some cash and global worming is getting tapped out.
Add up these two elements and you get a troubling question: Will the Trump administration’s crackdown on leaks include journalists as well as their sources?
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer cited an Associated Press report that claimed the President Trump’s administration was considering using 100,000 National Guard members to round up illegal immigrants.
I’m gonna go with ‘smug dishonesty’, his is a piece of shit after all.
I think I’m going to run out of Wash Post articles this month, they’ve been very stupid what with all the drama-queening, so let’s look at this bit of probably fake news. Apparently, the Norks are coming to America to have talks with “former officials”.
The State Department has not approved the North Koreans’ visas for the talks, which would take place in New York within the next few weeks.
That’s why I think it’s fake news. But this is the bit that makes me wonder.
The planned talks are being organized by Donald S. Zagoria of the National Committee on American Foreign Policy, who served as a consultant on Asia during the Carter administration…
I can see Trump telling the Norks to go talk to “those assholes”. Then, he gets to get the media to start freaking out, taking the Norks side against Trump. That’ll be funny.
Marine Le Pen gained ground on her rivals for the French election as she benefits from concerns about security while other candidates trained their fire on independent front-runner Emmanuel Macron.
Huh, I wonder why that is. She’s hated by all the right people!
French far-right leader Marine Le Pen has refused to go into a meeting with Lebanon’s grand mufti after being asked to wear a headscarf.
Yeah, “asked”, we’ll go with that. ‘Let’s pretend their religion does not consign women to second-class status.
A team of anti-fraud officers entered the building in Nanterre, the Paris suburb, while the 48-year-old Front National leader was on her first ever official visit abroad, in Lebanon.
She had her bodyguard on her EUnuchstanian payroll. I figure it’s what’s done by all the right (left) people, but she’s upsetting their applecart so…
They think their serfs are stupid.
Speaking of fake news and having low opinions of their serfs, Minitrue and their favored pols!
A Dem rep is suing to get the picture of cops as pigs put back up in the Capitol. Cuz Dems are all about supporting the police!
Rep. Lacy Clay (D-Mo.) will file a federal lawsuit on Tuesday against the Architect of the Capitol for removing a constituent’s painting that depicted police officers as animals from the Capitol complex.
They write “animals” because they’re trying to obfuscate the hate involved in a putting up a picture of cops as pigs in our nation’s capitol building.
Hateful assholes. Both Dem Rep and Minitrue asshole.
Speaking of hateful assholes, let’s take time out for this hate-crime.
A leading girls’ school has drawn up a “gender identity protocol” that allows pupils to be called by boys’ names and to wear boys’ clothes if they request it.
So…they’re letting boys go to their girl’s school? They’re basing gender on genitalia rather than what the person identifies as!
MP had the post yesterday about a moron on a roll (not a kaiser!), I forget where I saw the story, but I scrolled down and got to this post.
The set-up
…a man who had been banging a number of women lamented that every woman he encountered was a Cenobite, one of Clive Barker’s seekers of pain through pleasure. They would say “choke me until I pass out, hit me, spank me until I bleed, cut me…” They would demand ever-greater excesses, because they were unable to feel pleasure if it did not include pain. He didn’t care — all he wanted was to get laid, so he’d do whatever they asked of him — but he didn’t understand why women were this way, or why he could find so few who weren’t like this. He seemed to have a sense that things were not always this way.
In my DJ career, I have spent a great deal of time in communities and scenes that normal folks would regard as underground. For many years, I DJed BDSM parties, Fetish events, and the like. I’ve DJed warehouses and clubs with no names, buried in the wreckage of abandoned industrial parks. The marketplace of sex is one which I know exceedingly well. I’ve been DJing these scenes for the better part of 20 years….
The point
Go on social media, and you will see SJWs telling us that Nazis are everywhere, that they are evil, and foul, and legion. They are in the White House, they are on Youtube, they are on Twitter, they are in Video Games. Nazis, everywhere. And so they march out into the streets, the Black Bloc, Antifascists engaging in what Tom Kratman calls a bit of political theater (not unlike Fascists once did).
But at the end of a long week of fighting the cisnormative heteropatriarchy, they come to be beaten by men dressed as Nazis, to the gritty beats of loud Industrial music in the depths of an Industrial park.
I’d say the only problem I have with his posts is that I have a short attention span, reading posts that long isn’t my gig.
I love this one. It’s talking about our fine “conservative’ betters.
The other day, Bill Kristol took to twitter to announce his support for a coup against President Trump. Kristol has become fond of this sort of thing, leading some to wonder if he has lost his marbles. Alternatively, it could just be a lonely old man looking for attention as no one seems to care about his opinions these days.
We all saw his, “Let’s coup against the elected POTUS!!” tweet.
It is often argued that the appeal of politics is that it allows people to gain power and wealth, without having to invent a better mousetrap or figure out a better way to build a mousetrap. The reality is that the main attraction for guys like Kristol is they see punditry and commentary as fields where there is no right answer. Science, math, business, these are fields with right answers and more important, wrong answers. In the productive world, wrong answers have consequences.
Exactly. They went to the right schools so they don’t need to be correct, they only needto be smugly condescending and act as if they’ve never been wrong.
One of the funniest lines from Futurama was Leela saying the situation was like a fairy tale, the other person said, “Sure, if you think getting drugged and kidnapped is a fairy tale”, Leela said something like, “Well, yes.”
