The last 5 days have been utterly insane. I try not to look at stuff from Afghanistan but it’s so outrageously unbelievable and continuously adding more unbelievable outrageousness.
Much as I hate to do it, let’s start there.
I’m not posting the picture, but a bunch of goat and little boy fucking savages copied the iconic photo of the US Marines on Iwo Jima raising our flag.
Yes, they’re mocking the United fucking States fucking Marine fucking Corps.
In part thanks to the actions of Marine General “Mad Dog” Mattis and in accordance with his wishes.
I hope that motherfucking, oath-breaking, insurrectionist is fucking happy. It’s not my place, but the rest of the Marine Corps should declare the first ex-Marine.
And not just the Marine Corps, but they’re ordering all US military out of their ‘country’ by 9/11.
They probably want us out before whatever horrible terrorist attacks are going to happen on 9/11 so we’d have to decide to go back, get ready to go back and then actually go back. Which wouldn’t happen for the foreseeable future.
And in the Taliban’s defense, they’re entirely too mockable.
The Brit told him to go fuck himself, hopefully in those words. With other words questioning his manhood, parentage, procreational acumen and equipment. If it was a woman, I hope he made gender proper insults.
Without asking the general’s pronouns.
That shit is just embarrassing.
Of course, as Biden said it’s no problem getting to the airport.
He has a plan to evacuate them.
Well, not so much a plan as a hope that our fine media betters don’t report on the thousands of executions we’re about to not see.
Despicable and embarrassing. This sucks and it’s only going to get worse. A whole lot fucking worse.
The Taliban is showing off the weapons we paid for that they have but We The People don’t.
Helpfully illustrated
In the Glorious Now instead of Funny Cuz It’s True we have Not Funny Cuz It’s True.
And lest you think our fine betters in the State Dept are not on the job,
I wonder if they got absentee ballots. I mean for federal elections, California absentee ballots are a given.
Oh crap, they denied it. Hmmm, as I think about that, I’m actually thinking it really won’t affect their mission in Afghanistan, since they do not currently have a mission to evacuate anybody in Afghanistan. Whew, dodged that bullet!
Afghanistan is about Afghanistan – if you’re Afghan or Pakistani…
Afghanistan is not about Afghanistan, Afghanistan is not a country, it’s a place that no country wants enough to keep it.
Afghanistan to Pakistanis and Afghanis is about their own tribe and which tribes they’re allied with and which tribes they’re fighting.
As for alliances, they are just a convenience, they rarely have anything to do with who each tribe is going to attack.
The People’s Front of Afghanistan will ally with the Afghanistan Front of People against the People of the Front of Afghanistan but when battle starts, the Afghanistan Front of People suddenly join the People’s Front of Afghanistan against the People of the Front of Afghanistan! But wait! Suddenly the Afghanistan Front of People are joined by the People’s Afghanistan of Front against the……..and so on, century after century. They can’t even get together to repel an invader.
It’s like Syria with no central gov’t but with more little boy fucking and better beards.
I was fer going in, not so thrilled with “nation building” where there has never been a nation. I did have a plan for leaving a few years ago, it involved bombing much of the country with fuel air explosives, nuking the Pak border and leaving a few Marines with Ospreys, some of the 10th Mountain and a shitload of A-10s and Apaches.
The nukes were possibly a bit much, but that would have been better than what we have now.
That’s all the Afghanistan I can take, let’s look at something happy!
Whoever’s running the federal gov’t is ignoring the Taliban to focus on the real enemy.
BIDEN PREPARES TO SQUARE OFF WITH TEXAS AND FLORIDA OVER MASK MANDATES
One of the themes of this brave new world is how America might be boned, but the rest of the world is astronimcally more boned.
“These protestors want their freedoms back.”
Watch the whole, short, thing if you ran out of coffee and need an adrenaline fix to get going. I made it about 25 seconds. I had enough coffee this morning.
If you want more of the same, click here. It’s half infuriating, half frustrating and half depressing. Too many halves for me. Australia is going to a scary place.
In more “The People Are Getting What They Voted For Good and Hard” news, Seattle!
Seattle residents fed-up with homeless encampments fined by city for taking back their streets
Seattle residents, tired of their streets being used for homeless encampments and vehicles, blocked off parking spaces with cement blocks only to cited by the city.
According to Vorhies, Google had tweaked its algorithms to ensure that people only saw negative stories from the mainstream media about former president Donald Trump when they used the search engine. He admits that the Big Tech platform altered its news algorithms to harm the president’s reputation, as well as the 2020 presidential election.
Yeah, we saw that, and anybody who wanted to know could have discovered it. Most people don’t want to know and/or are happy it happened.
Leaders’ Debates Commissioner David Johnston has confirmed that leaders of five political parties will be invited to participate in the upcoming election debates — but People’s Party of Canada Leader Maxime Bernier is not among them.
I don’t care enough to find out if they’re commies as their name implies, but I don’t care.
FBI starts to cloud their involvement in January 6th False Flag Operation.
I might have taken a liberty with the end of that quote.
The motive for the FBI to say there is “scant evidence” of any coordinated group activity in the January 6th Capitol Hill events is transparent. The FBI need to cloud their involvement, their coordination, their agents, their planted informants and the FBI direction in the events.
And bingo was his name-o.
The reason for the title and first picture (which caption I saw on a graphic somewhere a few weeks ago, I forget where and couldn’t find it.
Glenn Greenwald — CNN and Lib Media are controlled by the CIA…
A landmark study on how to curb cheating has been retracted after nearly a decade and the prominent professor whose team produced the paper is himself accused of cheating and relying on faked data.
That’s too funny. The Global Worming dept must have had cutbacks at that school.
Bishop caught masturbating on Zoom call replaced by Pope Francis
I’m not sure if that would have been an improvement, I wouldn’t want to see either one beating off.
Let’s end with some graphics.
Sure they didn’t have antibiotics or deodorant, but this makes a good argument.
A coupla current events related ones
actually, this next one is totally not current events related at all. Not at all.
Yup, totally unrelated to anything that happened in November 2020
Speaking of events that didn’t happen, I hope Roberts is happy at what his fecklessness and probable corruption have wrought.
I had a heck of a time getting home the other day.
That’s freaking great.
A little personal business.
I’m pretty darn paranoid (but am I paranoid enough?), the other day I left work at about 12:45 am and got on the highway. I set my cruise for 80 so I don’t get a ticket (I love AZ), and passed a guy as soon as I got on the highway.
He sped up and started following me. I hadn’t come close to piss him off but, eh, I figured he just wanted me to get the ticket.
He got off at my exit, 10 or so miles later. He followed me through 4 lights to the right turn on my street, a major street. I noticed it but thought I was being too paranoid so didn’t worry about it. Much.
He turned into my trailer park. What the fuck? Now I’m really fucking paranoid. I went past my street and just went straight, if he followed me I was going to just pull over and get out to see what his deal was but he turned down my street. WTF? I was glad I didn’t turn that way because that would have freaked me out. I went around a block and saw him go up the next cross street, turn and pull into a driveway.
I figure he saw my car, knew it because he drives by my place a lot and there aren’t a lot of silver Mustang convertibles cruising the greater Phoenix metro area with a devilishly handsome, balding, silver-haired, fat guy driving.
For a second I thought Hayzeus was looking for my new place, good thing it wasn’t. I was gonna put sugar in his tank for a change.
Looking at the news we see a lot that we all saw and knew that is becoming too obvious to ignore and other stuff we saw and thought we knew but were wrong.
Of course, the ‘wrong’ category was usually that we weren’t paranoid enough.
California’s top labor law enforcer wants federal immigration agents to stay away from offices where state investigators weigh claims about underpaid employees and workplace retaliation.
Not technically slavery, but importing low-wage workers from areas with a fairly uniform population is about the same, this time it’s Hispanics instead of blacks, and they make them pay for their own crappy houses and cheap food, but the result is the same. A class of similar looking workers who do what they’re told.
Her directive followed three instances over the past 10 months in which immigration agents sought information about California workers who had filed claims against employers. In two cases, immigration agents attempted to attend hearings where investigators discuss claims with workers and their employers, Su said. In all three cases, the agents left when they were asked, she said.
They screw them cuz they’re illegal and can’t resort to the law against a politically powerful boss (one that gives donations to CA pols). They can’t whip them but this ridiculous century is young and the forces of Tolerance and Mostly Peace can justify a lot of evil in the name of Tolerance and Fairness.
I don’t know if this counts as being wrong, it is very cool though. I’ve been harping on the “Low Unemployment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! with 100,000,000 who’ve given even looking for work that aren’t counted But now we see this.
few hours later, the Labor Department’s Bureau of Labor Statistics said the economy added 209,000 jobs in July; the number of employed people jumped by 345,000 to 153,513,000 in July, setting a third straight monthly record; the number of Americans counted as not in the labor force, meaning they don’t have a job and are not looking for one, dropped for a third straight month to 94,657,000; and the nation’s unemployment rate also dropped a tenth of a point, to 4.3 percent.
That’s Winning!, are sick of it yet? I know someone who is.
Drop in Unemployment Rate: All About the Rounding
“The unemployment rate to three decimals was virtually unchanged at 4.350% versus 4.357% last month, but after rounding fell by one-tenth to 4.3%”
We’ll file that under Stuff That Is Only Written When A Republican (Or Trump) Is POTUS. But then, we all know that shit is just business as usual for our fine media betters.
China likes what the Norks are doing, they are even directing it IMO. How else can the Norks get such impressive hackers? They also seem to keep on keeping on even though there are SANCTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!
A North Korea defector has revealed how the dictatorship manages to bypass international sanctions and fund it’s nuclear weapons programme.
Ri Jong Ho, 59, had been raising money for the regime for decades, but defected in 2014 and now lives in Virginia, U.S.
He says UN sanctions against North Korea is futile as Pyongyang has long been able to work their way around attempts to cut off trade…
A major part of his job was helping to ferry ‘between $50 million and $100 million’ from China to North Korea, he told CNN…
Another thing it shows, that we all knew when we were trying it on Saddam’s Iraq, sanctions don’t hurt murderous dictators, they screw Teh Peepul*
However, he added, the general population never benefit from these money transfers, as the money is used to fund the lavish lives of Kim, his family and the Pyongyang elite.
The other thing that shows that I say I know but others dispute is that there is no such thing as International Law. Chinese companies are owned by the State, pretending they’re like companies in free nations is ridiculous, they do what the gov’t wants.
He said that when a North Korean company is banned from trading with China, the government simply changes the name of the company and the relationship is resumed – and the Chinese companies are only interested in profits.
There can be no law without a credible enforcement mechanism. The ICC in the Hague is about useless. They found against China in the South China Sea a year ago and it changed…not a fucking thing except for people who pretend Internation Law is a thing to say, “See! The system works!!!!”, except it didn’t. If you can’t force murderous dictators to follow International Law, it’s not real law.
*I would not class Cuba’s sanctions in that as other countries can sell to Cuba, that’s an American only sanction.
The problem is: So many executive employees are leaking that any investigation will undoubtedly turn up friends of the investigators. And the investigators themselves may be leakers.
(Does anyone think the leaker James Comey was obeying the president’s order to find the leakers?)
So, I don’t know if you trust anyone currently in the government to aggressively investigate their John McCain-style Good Friends.
What I know is that if there are people, there are factions that don’t like each other.
What Sessions needs to do is get some bureaucratic cliques to go after each other. Get one guy to tell you which assholes he hates are leaking, then they’ll tell you the first asshole was leaking.
Divide and conquer, they’ll supply the division, you supply the conquering. Pretty soon you put all the Obama leftovers in jail where they belong to clear out room for the next set of assholes. Hopefully they’ll hate Americans less.
Okay, I knew this was obstruction of justice, I also knew Debbie Wasserman Schultz was an idiot, I didn’t realize she’d loudly proclaim both things in one sentence.
She threatened “consequences” on May 18 for the chief of the Capitol Police unless the laptop was returned — despite police contending it was needed to help determine whether a staffer may have violated the House’s cybersecurity.
“This was not my laptop. I have never seen that laptop. I don’t know what’s on the laptop,” she said Thursday. She said it was Imran’s laptop but purchased using taxpayer funds from her office.
So it wasn’t hers? That means she inserted herself into a criminal investigation for a third party.
Don’t get me wrong, like you I know we don’t have a rule of law for prominent Dems so she won’t pay for it except possibly electorally, but admitting felony obstruction of justice is still even more stupid than I figured she would be.
Border security agents estimate upwards of 500 migrants a day are now breaching Canada’s border by walking along a dirt crossing into the Quebec town of Saint-Bernard-de-Lacolle.
Once there, they get what they want.
They get arrested, thereby opening the door to claiming refugee status, safe haven, and welfare benefits that will be paid through the property taxes of whatever municipality becomes their home.
Gaming Canada’s system is very easy, if you don’t have identification so they can’t figure out where you’re from, they can’t deport you for instance.
I also knew Trudeau was a lefty fool. But what I didn’t know was exactly how lefty and how foolish. This is the graphic used by Our Light.
Seriously? Canada has a core identity, they’re Not America. Just ask any Canadian in Europe.
Since the election there has been an unprecedented attempt to unwind the election result. Events have accelerated on several fronts lately with attempts from outside and within to paralyze the Trump administration…
All the while, the permanent bureaucracy, particularly in the intelligence community, started an unending and almost daily series of leaks meant to paralyze the administration…
It’s getting too blatant. Our fine betters really seem to think that if they Get Rid Of Trump we’ll all give up and go back to sleep.
Too late, the part of America that makes it work are Woke too.
What we all knew but that Shep Smith and other ignorant and foolish lefties claimed was A Lie By Trump!!!!!!!
Four state Registry of Motor Vehicle clerks along with two other people were arrested Wednesday after authorities say they were making false identifications through the registry and selling them to people living in the country illegally, some of whom had been deported in the past.
Some of those phony licenses and identifications were used to fraudulently register to vote in Boston, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
By ‘some’, I’d bet this “journolist” means, “Most”. The Dems and their media arm were busy encouraging it after all.
But Trump Was Racist And A Liar When He Pointed Out What We All Knew!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The FBI are Hillary’s Bitches! and the media did everything they could to hide Hillary’s feloniosities!
A new email dump from the FBI via a FOIA request by the ACLJ reveals what appears to be collusion between the media and the DOJ to squash the story about the 2016 meeting between Loretta Lynch and Bill Clinton on the tarmac in Phoenix, AZ.
Also Comey reportedly said the FBI had no documents related to this meeting to fill a prior FOIA request. That apparently isn’t true, given this new email dump.
Well, duh. We watched that shit Live! On TV!.
It’s pretty endy and funny that the Dept. of “Justice” was doing everything they could to forestall justice and the media, supposed disseminater of news, was hiding the news. The collusion angle is what gives it that extra ooomph.
Fox News commentator Charles Krauthammer warned Thursday night that members of the political establishment, including some Republicans, are angling to remove President Trump from office.
That’s very Clintonian. Admit as little as is proven but deny what can be implausibly denied.
‘Sure, some Republicans want Trump, but not all or even most!’ when it’s all of the DC set, whether GOP pols or conservative “Thinkers”. Krauthammer is a Never-Trumper in good standing after all.
Okay, this one just makes me laugh. After so long trying to conflate legal and illegal immigration, our fine betters have managed to make Americans accept that they are the same!
Roughly sixty percent of surveyed respondents want to stop all legal and illegal immigration, says a pair of sophisticated polls which allowed people to speak their mind without fear of progressives’ hate.
Mission Accomplished!
It’s funny that these polls implicitly accept that we are no longer allowed free speech by our fine Tolerant and Mostly-Peaceful countryxhim.
A LOCAL council has banned the construction of a synagogue in Bondi because it could be a terrorist target,
But we did know that! As everyone knows, and Australia is entirely peopled with criminals, therefore they would surely be all in on the Felon’s Veto!
I don’t know enough about Australia to know if there will be heavy blowback on this but I hope so. In a free nation you really should give The Bitch the right to Ask Fer It!!!!, don’t you think?
Gun Control Rights, it’s right there in the Constitution! It’s in the Pursuit of Happiness clause.
Today’s Puritans have to pursue our happiness.
I knew that everything we thought was normal as little as a few months ago is now a hate-crime, but I didn’t realize it would get this ridiculous this soon.
…Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) have assigned films a rating (i.e. G, PG, PG-13, etc.) based on their age appropriateness level.
But one group is seeking to add a new criteria to those age-inappropriate themes: gender roles.
As little as 10 years ago it was exactly the opposite. Hell, 50 years ago you could barely talk about that stuff in a non-X-Rated movie.
In theory, the system is quite simple: a film will be awarded the organisation’s seal of approval if it presents characters that defy gender stereotypes. Films designed for early childhood (between the ages of two and six) should depict boys and girls as friends and equals. By the time of early adolescence (between 11 and 13), films must demonstrate that worth is based on more than just physical beauty…
…CSM system increases accountability: “people making these products are sure they’re gender-balanced when they’re profoundly not.”
The problem with this bit of indoctrination is that they’re trying to change human nature by browbeating us.
We need something like Moore’s law that processor speeds for computers will double every two years, except for lefties.
Veeshir’s Nother Law: Lefty ridiculousness will double every time you pay attention to what they’re saying.
I didn’t realize football started last night, it did show me something that we all know but that our fine betters are refusing to know, We Want To Watch Football, We Don’t Want To Be Proselytized At.
I flipped past the game, it was in the middle of the 4th quarter with future truck drives playing against future supermarket workers and the announcers on NBC, Chris Collingsworth and whoever, were talking about how someone really needed to sign Colin Kaepernik because he’s what they need! Whenever a QB is injured, they said, Kaepernik Should Be In The Conversation.
They should be asking exactly the opposite question but they’re still denying that football fans don’t want to listen to your politics, we want to watch fucking football.
Okay, this one just bothers me cuz, while I have a low opinion of NYC people in general, this is just ignorant.
Though of course bread and butter are eaten all over, the buttered roll (or roll with butter, as it is known in parts of New Jersey) is a distinctly local phenomenon. Mention its name outside the New York metropolitan area and you would very likely be met with blank incomprehension.
He says, ‘NY metro area’ cuz he’s parochial and doesn’t get to upstate NY much. James Lileks, who I like, ignorantly responds
A Buttered. Roll.
I’ll grant you this: we didn’t have Buttered Rolls as such in Fargo. We had Rolls, with Butter. Perhaps that’s the difference. But when you went down to coffee in the basement after church, you got some rolls – often the type that split apart into three segments – and you put butter on them. Any holiday dinner, any family meal large enough to require a Relish Tray – rolls, with butter.
Yeah, they do that in NY too, but nowhere outside NYS and the states around NYC are they laid out in the morning at every place that sells coffee.
Heaps of buttered hard rolls ready to pick up with your coffee att every place that sells coffee, except Dunkin Donuts and Krispy Kreme, they’re right next to the self-service coffee station.
I don’t see that anywhere else in the country. Most places that sell coffee don’t even have hard rolls unless they also sell sandwiches and it often takes far too long to explain that I just want a buttered fucking roll for my fucking coffee.
When I first starting traveling outside NY I used to ask all the time and people would look at me as if I was crazy, now I don’t even bother. Especially since it’s usually in the morning before I’ve had my fucking coffee. I have a low tolerance for people before I’ve had my coffee. Okay, lower tolerance.
I buy lots of french and italian bread and rolls so I make them at home but when I’m driving across the country all I want is a fucking buttered fucking roll and it’s fucking too much to fucking ask.
I did something I was loathe loath to do, I figured out what it was going to cost me to get a new body for that engine.
I was going to have to spend probably $8-10k more to own two cars, a running El Camino and an albatross around my neck in the guise of a Caballero with an engine in the bed. Or… I could spend yet another couple grand, I’d hope but probably more knowing that fucking thing, and have a running Caballero worth maybe 3 or 4 grand. So for the low cost of $10-$12k on top of the nearly $10k I’ve already spent I’d have a car and an albatross and a lot less money to buy a house next year. I also have to spend another $1,500 to get the seats reupholstered in my Mustang and fix the BBK throttle body that’s 8 or 9 years old and acting up, I was going to have to put off the seats on the Mustang.
So I decided to keep the albatro….Caballero and, try (wish me luck on this shit) to go the classic car plates route so I don’t have to get emissions. I start school next month and it’ll take a year so next year I’ll move somewhere with no emissions.
I went to the DMV, they said I need Collector Car insurance. My insurance company needs pictures so tomorrow my plan is to register the thing and start driving it. Caballero plans tend to not work, so we’ll see.
The guy who was trying to get it emissioned did a bunch of work on it and it’s finally right. He adjusted the carb and timing, which none of the other people seemed to know how to do correctly, which the first asshole made sure was necessary by taking them off a tuned engine for some inexplicable reason and the 4th or 5th guys screwed up the timing trying to make a top-end car (power band at 5,000+ rpm) into an off-the-line car.
They’re the ones who wanted me to change the carb, I have a brand new Holley 750 4bbl that Blueprint said was right, and distributor, I have new HEI distributor again that Blueprint said was right, to make it faster off the line, which every other mechanic said was not going to work. A bigger, differently geared, rear-end and a manual transmission would be the way to do that according to my buddy in VA.
I might still do that, but if I do then I’d have to relive my teen years and take up power-sliding again… I mean, take up drifting.
I will say that in 1982-84 I did far more exciting ‘drifting’ in my 72 Cutlass Supreme with an Olds 350 4bbl. It was my specialty. I used to give rides. Hell, when I was 16-18 and learning that shit in my 72 Dart with the 196 straight six I did 360s far better than that, on snow and ice cuz a 196 can’t make the tires spin on pavement, but still. I used an egg-timer to track my 0-60 on that Dart.
So my plan is to put the Mustang under a cover and drive the Caballero for the summer and then contrariwise when I can put the top down. I am not looking forward to dealing with the Caballero again, but I hope I found a mechanic HeyZeus has not gotten to. The bastid.
Given the GOP’s campaign against ObamaCare and their failure to repeal it, I would find this encouraging if I were a Democrat…
What is already energizing the Republican vote for 2018 is the prospect for ousting more establishment RINOs in the primaries than at any time in history…
This is what morons like Rags, the MFM and liberals in particular cannot fathom…that people are P1SSED at THIS lot of Republican Democrats!
Get these road blocks to progressed removed and people put in place who will carry out what they said they would!…
Primary season is going to be even more interesting than when Tea Partiers were trying to get rid of them. Tea Partiers were still polite and respectful. Today, those people are sick and tired of being called vicious names by all our fine betters in DC and minitrue, they’re not going to be so polite. Remember when they primaried Murkowski and the GOP closed ranks to get her elected anyway? I do not see that shit working next year. If they pull that shit expect the Dem to win and the GOP to blame their voters.
Bloomberg released a poll Monday in which they gauged Americans’ mood six months into the new presidency. While Trump didn’t fare too well, Americans are quite optimistic about the economy in general and their personal financial health. As part of the study, Bloomberg asked respondents what they think is the top issue facing the country. Here are the results:
Not surprisingly, health care tops the list of concerns, followed by jobs and security issues. These findings are pretty typical, though the collapse of Obamacare and the GOP bills to fix it have caused health care to surge higher than usual. But look toward the center of the list. Russia, the issue that has dominated press coverage since the November election, scores a paltry 6 percent on Americans’ top concerns.
Notice where “taxes” is on that graph. They keep pushing that as if it was a big deal in the election but it was the lawlessness of the former admin, Obamacare and illegal immigration that Trump rode to victory. That stuff is not important to our fine media betters though so they ram their priorities down our throats.
The U.S. special counsel investigating possible ties between the Donald Trump campaign and Russia in last year’s election is examining a broad range of transactions involving Trump’s businesses as well as those of his associates, according to a person familiar with the probe.
They really don’t want to know what happens if they lawlessly ‘fix’ the election we screwed up last year.
Notice that the people who put their money, instead of ours, where their mouths are are worried.
Major U.S. stock indices, which had been trading higher in the morning, fell as traders worried that the probe could derail Trump’s growth agenda.
Yup. Putting Pence and therefore the establishment pricks in the GOP in charge would fuck the whole thing up.
My Leftist friends (as well as many ardent #NeverTrumpers) constantly ask me if I’m not bothered by Donald Trump’s lack of decorum. They ask if I don’t think his tweets are “beneath the dignity of the office.” Here’s my answer:
We Right-thinking people have tried dignity. There could not have been a man of more quiet dignity than George W. Bush as he suffered the outrageous lies and politically motivated hatreds that undermined his presidency. We tried statesmanship. Could there be another human being on this earth who so desperately prized “collegiality” as John McCain? We tried propriety – has there been a nicer human being ever than Mitt Romney? And the results were always the same.
We finally have someone ready to push back against the We’re Better And Smarter Than You Party and the vicious liars in Minitrue and some people seem to think he’s too confrontational. When Mitt fucking Romney is the Next Hitler!!!!!! you know it’s time to start fighting back using their rules.
Something the We’re Better And Smarter Than You Party and the vicious liars in Minitrue refuse to allow to even be said
I don’t find anything “dignified,” “collegial” or “proper” about Barack Obama’s lying about what went down on the streets of Ferguson in order to ramp up racial hatreds because racial hatreds serve the Democratic Party. I don’t see anything “dignified” in lying about the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi and imprisoning an innocent filmmaker to cover your tracks. I don’t see anything “statesman-like” in weaponizing the IRS to be used to destroy your political opponents and any dissent. Yes, Obama was “articulate” and “polished” but in no way was he in the least bit “dignified,” “collegial” or “proper.”
Exactly. RTWT, it’s very smart. You can tell cuz it agrees with stuff I’ve written.
Lest we forget that lefties aren’t just vicious, they’re fascists who refuse to accept that alternate viewpoints are valid and should not be aired.
SOCIAL MEDIA GIANT FACEBOOK BLOCKED MORE THAN TWO DOZEN CONSERVATIVE CATHOLIC PAGES IN A 24-HOUR PERIOD, SOME WITH MILLIONS OF FOLLOWERS, SAYING ONLY THEY WERE “SUSPECTED OF SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITIES.”
Faceblock knows which side of the current war they’re on, and it’s the side of fascist censors.
The head of Iran’s powerful Revolutionary Guard warned the U.S. that it better move its forces away from his country if Washington imposes new sanctions on his paramilitary group.
Good luck with that. Somehow I don’t think Mattis uses the adjective “powerful” when discussing the Revolutionary Guard. He probably uses words like “target”, “killing field” and “pig-skin coffins”.
Do you think that Akbar Britain noticed that Benny Hill and Monty Python are the most popular things about their nation and they’re trying to out-ridiculous them?
Home Secretary Amber Rudd will today propose to make possessing them illegal everywhere, whether in public or at home.
A long list of dangerous weapons that glamorise violence will also be included in the total ban, putting them on the same legal footing as unlicensed firearms.
They include sword sticks, butterfly knives and blowpipes, as well as a range of martial arts weapons such as deathstars (deathstars? throwing stars you arseholes) and handclaws.
Only people having the weapons for bonified ceremonial or religious reasons will be exempt from the ban.
Ms Rudd is also looking at making it compulsory to buy all knives in person rather than ordering for delivery to keep them out of children’s hands.
A new offence could be created of delivering them to private property.
Or are their oligarchs really that stupid? Blowpipes? Are they going to then outlaw copper pipes when people use that?
Banning normal items is what you do When Something Must Be Done!!!!!!! but you’re out of ideas.
The scariest, most ridiculous thing I’ve read in a long time.
But the police are still powerless to confiscate or arrest suspects who keep the large blades with serrated edges at home.
No really. They’re upset it’s legal to have a bread knife in your house.
Have they outlawed the longbow yet? I know most of their flags are haram, but I’m just wondering how much of their history they’re going to erase.
Up next? Neville Chamberlain’s brilliant foreign policy made it possible for the next Prime Minister, Winston someone or other, to fight WWII.
Sergei Paylian was only 14 years old when he was horrified by the death of his young, attractive neighbor in Tbilisi, Georgia. As was the local Soviet custom at the time, her open coffin was carried through the street to the sound of music as a shocked teenage Sergei looked on, confronted for the first time with the issue of his own mortality.
It sparked a lifelong obsession with aging – and how to reverse it.
Now, standing in his neat Florida laboratory that looks more like a dentist’s office, the 66-year-old scientist is explaining how a lifetime of research has culminated in a purified extract he calls bioquantines, ‘combinatorial biologics’ incorporating other species such as frogs and, in the future, sharks that he believes is the key to curing diseases – and even death.
When injected into humans, he claims, the bioquantines find their way to diseased or damaged cells and help restore them to a healthier state.

Sorta short on content so let’s Pic Post at the end.
Et #2 Brute?
I don’t really like this one but
The rest are keeping their mouths shut so we don’t know the percentages but there are obviously enough of those types to kill lots of people.
Although I’d say the caption should read, ” If you are not a Muslim or a sufficiently similar Muslim…”
I don’t look like this, my tits are hairy for instance, but it’s my philosophy.
That’s one thing that many people cannot understand, I treat you the way you treat me. I start nice and polite, but if you call me names I’m all outta fucks so I make sure you know I think you’re a little too dim and full of hate to be taken seriously. It doesn’t accomplish anything but give me a laugh and get fools to leave me alone.
But my favorite part is the end. I can not give a fuck very fucking hard. That was a hard lesson but a useful one.
Can I get a Heh?
Now, while computers and technology hate me (as well as mechanics and GMC’s apparently), that doesn’t mean I’m a luddite but…
Sometimes progress isn’t a good thing.
How awesome would it be if CA was still 3 1/2 months away?
Let’s look at the most prolific deniers of reality.
So the latest story about the Trump Colluding With The Russians!!!!! falls apart as soon as it’s looked at closely. Like all the rest of them.
President Trump’s previously undisclosed conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin occurred because first lady Melania Trump had been assigned a seat beside Putin at an official dinner during the G-20 summit in Hamburg earlier this month, a White House official said Tuesday evening…
“During the course of the dinner, all the leaders circulated throughout the room and spoke with one another freely. President Trump spoke with many leaders during the course of the evening. As the dinner was concluding, President Trump went over to Mrs. Trump, where he spoke briefly with President Putin.” ….
“There was no ‘second meeting’ between President Trump and President Putin, just a brief conversation at the end of a dinner.
So he sat down next to his wife and there was Tsar Putin I, so naturally our fine media betters had to write a story about a ‘secret meeting’. It’s just axiomatic.
With this quote that fits our fine media betters to a T.
The insinuation that the White House has tried to ‘hide’ a second meeting is false, malicious and absurd,
That’s all they have. Malicious, absurd, lies. Like the other current one about how his son-in-law met with a Russian that Obama’s peeps let in the country in suspicious circumstances. Much like every other Russian Collusion!!! story out there.
Now let’s look at the reality that the GOP has been throwing fish at our faces for years.
The GOP was all about repealing Obamacare when it was impossible, now that it’s possible they’re uninterested. As anybody with a clue already knew.
Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) said on Tuesday she cannot support a bill to repeal Obamacare without a replacement, even though she voted to repeal Obamacare in 2015.
I hope every GOP voter who arfed, slapped their fins and honked their squeezy bulb horns is fucking bullshit angry.
The worst part, electing Dems would not solve anything. We’ve tried that and the GOP blamed us for not recognizing their obvious superiority.
We need to primary all these assholes.
Although….that hasn’t always worked well in the past. Remember when we were all wrong about wanting to get rid of Murkowski? There sure is egg on our faces!
Collins, who opposes the current bill, is the only Republican in the Senate who voted against repeal back in 2015. But look at the GOP senators who voted in favor of repeal: Dean Heller, the Nevada senator who’s been very publicly reluctant to support the current effort. Shelley Moore Capito, Lisa Murkowski, Rob Portman, and more. Would they all vote the same way again with a Republican in the White House and a majority of voters opposed to the bill?
Oh wait, that’s GOP spit and fish-slime.
I was wondering how they were going to do their failure theater, McConnell shows me the way.
Look carefully at what McConnell said. First, the Senate will “vote to take up the House bill.” And then, after it votes to take up the House bill…
Gee, if only the Senate majority had a leader who could choose which bills the Senate should take up! Of course, when they vote against taking up the House bill, they’ll try to convince us they Really Tried, Guys!
Fuckhead thinks we’re idiots. Since we keep electing these assholes, it’s hard to argue with that position.
Keeping with how our Elite think we’re subhuman and beneath them, I ignored David Brooks idiotic lie about how a friend was intimidated by a sandwich, but now we see this response.
“David Brooks’ friend doesn’t need him to ‘sensitively’ take her somewhere she already knows while pondering on the social signifiers that keep her from being as enlightened as he is,” Charlie Martin writes. “What she needs is for him to pull his nose down far enough to say ‘it’s salami.’”
Now first, that story was too stupid to be true so treating it as serious is absurd. It was just like another asshole, I forget who cuz I don’t care, who relates conversations with fictional cab-drivers to prove his ‘points’.
But more importantly, when did Italian food become “upper class”? 60 years ago them Wops were rightly kept from the upper strata and their food? Barbaric! Now it’s Upper Class and we proles just can’t understand it.
One of the most interesting and fun parts of these days is figuring out if shit like this is real or a joke.
— Red Nation Rising (@RedNationRising) July 8, 2017
That’s a joke. When I first watched it I was sure she was for real, but then I read the responses and realized it was meant to be funny.
I’m still trying to decide if that makes it funnier or less funny. It certainly is less endy as more and more people begin to notice the absurdity of today.
Let’s keep being a twit. Staten Island used to be the most conservative part of NYC.
The City of London has the highest murder rate in the land. While the authorities launch investigations into pork being left at a mosque or a hijab supposedly being torn off, crime continues to rise.
Gun control has worked so wonderfully well that gun crime in London rose 42%. When gun control advocates insist that we should be more like the UK, London’s 2,544 gun crime offenses probably aren’t what they have in mind…
Those complex social reasons would seem to involve stabbing other people. But like Islamic terrorism, stabbings in London are one of those things that can’t be solved by the police. Unlike people saying mean things about Muslims on Facebook and Twitter which the Met cops are well equipped to solve.
Still the authorities have been doing their best to tackle stabbings with a knife ban. Carry a knife without a “good reason” and you can get four years in prison…
But it’s working well enough that many of the gangs responsible for the violence are turning to acid.
Acid attacks in London rose from 162 in 2012 to 454 last year. There have already been 199 acid attacks this year. Five acid attacks just happened in London in the space of little more than an hour.
And so the obvious new solution is drain cleaner control.
Geez. Now that the people they refuse to allow to assimilate have decided to use vehicles, I have to wonder if EUnuchstanian serfs will have to give a good reason for owning a car.
He does give us this graphic showing acid attacks.
But then he goes off the rails.
There’s more acid in London now than there was in 1968. But this acid isn’t the kind that makes people create awful music and forget basic hygiene.
You know, fuck you. Sure hippies are dirty and smelly but hallucinogens make the best music! Cocaine makes shitty music. Did Jimi Hendrix live and die a tragically early death in vain? Did Jethro Tull do a mountain of acid for nothing?
That guy is tripping his balls off.
I couldn’t find the version I wanted, he spends about a minute catching trails off his waving hand, but he’s tripping hard in almost every video you’ll see.
Saudi Woman Who Wore Mini Skirt On Video Is Arrested By Police For Violating “Islamic Dress Code”
It’s not a miniskirt, it’s more than halfway to her knees. Words have meaning.
Let’s talk about the Muslim World
Is Pakistan worrying about getting drawn into the coming nukular war in the middle east?
There’s little doubt that the Pak-Saudi encounter is the original “all weather” relationship. But this relationship is now coming under strain…
Take his signature defence policy. Salman is said to be the architect of the campaign against Yemen (though he denies this). Except that what was promised as a short, surgical war isn’t quite going to plan. Moreover, two years of relentless aerial bombardment has caused large-scale civilian death and a public health emergency unseen in modern times, according to the World Health Organisation.
Getting sucked into fighting the Islamic Theocracy V the Theocracy of Islam is about as futile and stupid a thing there is.
Things are going as usual in Kashmir so maybe they’re more worried about nukular war with India. You know the oil ticks will not get involved in that, no Jews and few insufficiently similar Muslims to kill there!
Lipstick Under My Burkha will hit screens on Friday, five months after the country’s notoriously prudish and much-maligned censor board refused to certify it for being “lady oriented”. (emphasis me, V)
The movie tells the story of the secret lives and desires of four women — including a college student who wears a burkha, and a 55-year-old who rediscovers a sex life after the death of her husband.
So chick flicks were illegal there? While I deplore the lack of freedom, I understand it.
Some of Pakistan is sick of the 7th century savages savaging their nation, I wonder how they’ll do against the murderous assholes in their version of the Religion of Peace.
No matter how often I see this idiocy I cannot even pretend the assholes who believe it are anything but anti-historical, anti-human-nature, morons.
The visit to Cuba of Virginia B. Dandan, the United Nations “independent” expert on human rights and international solidarity serves as evidence that the argument made by some that having repressive governments on the UN Human Rights Council would lead those regimes to improve their behavior is disastrously false… (emphasis me, V)
Leading to the spectacle of a human rights expert who visits a totalitarian dictatorship and at a press conference states: “I do not know what you mean by opposition. I honestly do not know who is in the opposition.” This led an opposition publication to publish an oped titled: “Virginia Dandan, the expert who does not ask questions.”
Remember when the idiots told us that the Palestinian Death Cult (Hamas) would moderate after being elected to lead their part of the Terrortories?
Yeah, that was less stupid than thinking that putting the thugs that murderous regimes send to the UN are anything but the thugs for murderous dictators.
I do understand it’s hard to find an opposition in Cuba, but that’s not because they’re not there but because they’re dead, in prison or in hiding. Which part of ‘murderous commie dictatorship’ is so hard to understand?
A Friday memo emailed from Washington’s Evergreen State College’s administrators to the student body said that actions taken by the social justice advocates over the last few months — including intimidation and prohibition of egress from school areas — have been illegal, and could result in criminal charges.
Yeah, that’s far too late.
I’m not a lawyer, nor do I play one on the ‘tubes, but wouldn’t their defense be that the college admin gave them the green light to be violent, intolerant, racist and thuggish?
Especially since this is long after the beginning of the thuggish, intolerant, racist violence but only shortly after this
According to The College Fix, Vice President for Student Affairs Wendy Endress wrote in a July 14 memo that recent events by social justice warrior students have tarnished Evergreen State College’s reputation to the point that enrollment at the college has fallen.
Furthermore, Endress noted that Washington legislators had introduced two bills to phase out public funding for Evergreen, turning the college into a private entity.
It’s funny how threatening to stop the flow of other people’s money makes commies show remorse.
I’ve been wondering where to put this graphic, it sorta fits here so you get it.
People as little as 10 years ago would have called you a paranoid loon for saying that was our future. Yet here we are.
To get the most out of your next trip to one of these landmarks, and to stay safe if you’re planning to rough it in the wilderness, we asked Ash Nudd, a former park ranger who worked in three different parks, as well as a National Park Service spokesperson to share some must-have items.
Here are seven items you shouldn’t visit a national park without…
They list some that are not all that obvious like bear spray (I prefer a .500 S&W magnum, I don’t want to be a pile of bear-spray smelling bear shit) but then they list sunscreen and hiking boots or shoes while explicitly saying to not wear high heels.
Yes, they literally need to tell people not to wear high heels in the wilderness.
Every year people die around here because they went hiking in flip-flops with a 20 oz. bottle of water in the summer.
They also tell you to bring a paper map. Why? It’s not really funny, but there are a lot of people who have no idea how to use a map. I love maps but when I ask someone else to figure out where we are they often have no clue. Lots of people do not even know that, unless otherwise noted, the top of every map is north.
Remember the family camping trip? Not any more. That’s so uncool!
So my Societal Observation!!!!!
Many parents today do not teach their kids the stuff that parents used to teach them as a matter of course.
My sister is an awesome cook. Her soups are unbelievable. She even makes sausage and escarole with turkey sausage and it’s still unbelievably good.
Her daughters couldn’t cook a hot dog without directions and a microwave. They’re actually angry with me that I think that’s ridiculous. “I have a phone and people deliver food.” is the politest response I’ve heard.
A few years ago I had some neighbors, a 21 year old couple with a baby. They were clueless about so much normal stuff that people do.
For instance, I lent them my gas grill. The second day I looked outside and saw him by the grill with the flames shooting up a couple feet. I went out to get him to turn down the gas when I saw he had filled the gas grill with charcoal and used lighter fluid to start it. He had thrown out the lava rocks before doing so. The worst part was that he had dragged it to by his apartment so he had to carry the gas tank. He had no idea what a gas grill is. They weren’t tweakers, just people whose parents did not teach them life skills.
Obviously it’s not everybody, but it’s enough to be a very bad trend.
What if we actually do get to the societal collapse our fine betters are demanding? What would happen to these helpless individuals when they’re forced to try to live without people to do for them? It wouldn’t be pretty. It wouldn’t be funny, but I’m sure there will be people enough laughing at them as they die of hunger in a forest full of food or by shitting their lives out from drinking bad water.
Via Paco, we see the most expensive guns out there. I expected it to be all about lame-ass, trendy guns, but I wuz wrong.
The most expensive one
George Washington’s saddle pistols: $1,986,000
Awesome. I’m not a fan of the first one, but I’d surely like to own the rest.
If anybody disputes that Gaia hates Al Gore, I give you the iceberg I’ve titled, Suck This Al Gore!
The (VA) department announced last week that between President Trump’s inauguration and July 3, it had fired 526 employees, demoted another 27, and temporarily suspended another 194 for longer than two weeks…
I’m having a problem thinking of a gov’t department that wouldn’t be best served by firing everybody GS-12 and up and starting over with Americans or at least people who actually like America and the Constitution.
I miss the old days, when Republicans stood for repealing Obamacare. Republicans across the country and every member of my caucus campaigned on repeal – often declaring they would tear out Obamacare “root and branch!”
What happened?
Now too many Republicans are falling all over themselves to stuff hundreds of billions of taxpayers’ dollars into a bill that doesn’t repeal Obamacare and feeds Big Insurance a huge bailout.
Yeah, we’ve been watching that shit for years. They didn’t actually ‘stand for repealing…”, they stood for making us think they stood for that.
It’s funny how as we learn more about each and every Get Trump lie we see that they’ve been set-up by Democrats.
At the heart of the current media Russian narrative du jour is a story about Donald Trump Jr. meeting with a Russian attorney named Natalia Veselnitskaya. That meeting took place on June 9th 2016 in Trump Tower.
Now it is discovered via video and images, that only 5 days later, June 14th 2016, Ms. Veselnitskaya was a guest of former Obama administration Russian Ambassador Michael McFaul in Washington DC for a House of Representatives hearing on U.S. Policy Toward Putin’s Russia.
The media just stayed in full, “Let’s Lie!” mode they were in during the Age Of Obama, but now they lie the other way, making mountains out of moleshit instead of making moleshit out of mountains.
Saudi Arabia has been funding mosques throughout Europe that have become hotbeds of extremism, the former British ambassador to Saudi Arabia Sir William Patey has said.
Yeah, we’ve been watching that shit too.
The obligatory, Islam Means Peace So Let’s Not Rile Them Up, part of any such story
…commissioned report into the funding of extremism in the UK. The full report is not being published for security reasons.
Seattle councilmember Larry Gossett isn’t a fan of one solution to power wash the feces from the sidewalks to tamp down on the smell. Power washing the sidewalks is too reminiscent of civil rights activists being hosed down, he said.
Yeah, it’s exactly the same, if you think of black people as pieces of shit I guess.
I’m more nuanced, I think most people are pieces of shit regardless of race, creed, color or genitalia.
Michael Mann, he of the dishonest hockey stick bullshit, is suing all kinds of people who call him a liar to get them to shut up, but he obviously didn’t think it through.
Mann had refused to produce his data for the court (in support of his own case), claiming that it was “proprietary.” After missing a February 20th deadline, he now finds himself in contempt. Under Canadian law, the court is now required to dismiss the suit.
Green Science is all about hiding your numbers and trying to force people to accept your conclusions. You know, science as if it were run by Torquemada and Ayatollah Komeini.
One redacted exchange reveals a back and forth subpoena response to the FBI from one of Mrs. Clinton’s private attorneys, Katherine Turner, a partner at Washington DC powerhouse firm Williams & Connolly. In the document, Turner agreed to turn over one of Mrs. Clinton’s non-secure Apple iPads and two of her BlackBerrys to the FBI.
But neither smartphone received from the law firm contain SIM cards or Secure Digital (SD) cards, and a total of 13 mobile devices identified by the FBI as potentially using clintonemail.com email addresses were never located by Williams & Connelly…
Mills, who was Clinton’s chief of staff and counselor at State, received immunity for her cooperation into the email investigation was permitted to be in the room while Clinton interviewed by the FBI in July 2016. Comey would later admit publicly that he had never heard of a potential witness representing the subject of an FBI investigation to be present during an interview with investigators.
“We are presuming there are still 13 devices at issue,” Tom Fitton,(of Judicial Watch, V)
Judicial Watch is doing all the investigating in this, the FBI is busily playing Tom Sawyer in Corruption Theater.
Let’s end on the Travails of Florida Man
I gotta say, that raises more questions than it answers.
Of course, I don’t want the answers to those questions so I guess it’s fair.
The Senate Judiciary Committee has opened a probe into former Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s efforts to shape the FBI’s investigation into 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, the committee’s chairman announced Friday.
Isn’t it early to be posturing? The important election is more than a year away, why throw this posturing pander until closer to the election? Oh wait, last week they were praising Trey Gowdy for keeping another Hearing!!!!! going for over a year, maybe they’re competing to see how long they can keep the proles riled up with Hearings!!!!!! and Committees!!!!!!!.
You know who isn’t going to investigate the behavior of the Dept. of “Justice” during the last election?
The Dept. of “Justice” that’s who. The only ones who could actually do any fucking good but would be investigating themselves. While they know who did what to whom, it’s because they’re the who and they’re still doing the what. The whom is us.
All we’re gonna get is fish in the face.
Totally not relatedly, we’re on day 1506 of the IRS ‘Scandal’ that nobody seems to be interested in.
Nonetheless, on March 22, 2016, in the case of United States v. NorCal Tea Party Patriots, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit disagreed with this interpretation and determined that tax exempt application information is not “return information,” and thus not protected from § 6103 disclosure. The Sixth Circuit’s ruling directly contravenes a previous District of Columbia Circuit ruling on the issue and is likely to expose attempts by the IRS to intervene in United States politics via the tax-exemption application process and 26 U.S.C. § 501(c)(3). This Comment discusses the basics of §§ 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4), the attempts by the IRS to engage in politics using § 501(c), the conflicting holdings and United States circuit courts’ various interpretations of § 6013 protection for the IRS, and the future implications of the circuit split created by the Sixth Circuit’s holding in NorCal. …
Wait, the IRS lost a court case! That’s never happened before!!!! That’ll change….abso fucking lutely nothing.
They’ve lost so many court cases and told the court to suck their balls that I just don’t see how the law-enforcement agency that’s been ignoring that is going to suddenly investigate themselves or anyone on ‘their’ team.
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT QUIETLY HELPED AND REWARDED COMPANIES AND UNIVERSITIES WHICH HIRED ROUGHLY 330,000 CHEAP FOREIGN GRADUATES IN 2016 INSTEAD OF HIRING AMERICAN GRADUATES, MANY OF WHOM ARE DEEP IN DEBT.
The little-known “Optional Practical Training” program has grown from 91,140 new foreign job-seekers in 2009 to 329,158 new job-seekers in 2016, according to data provided by the Department of Homeland Security. That is almost a four-fold increase in seven years — and the program is growing even larger in 2017.
Once again, I was not paranoid enough. That’s happened to me more in the last 10 years than in the previous 40.
I can understand at least part of the reason for doing that, hiring angry race-studies majors is not a good idea, but surely there are a few hundred thousand qualified Americans out there they could have hired.
Among fans of the noir crime classic “Pulp Fiction,” there are some wild theories about what was inside the mystical briefcase that Marsellus Wallace dispatched his men to collect. The joke, of course, is on the audience. There’s something unthinkable in there, something that glows and hums, something perhaps supernatural … but we’ll never find out what.
As of this writing, a Senate Republican’s odds of guessing the contents of that briefcase are about as good as his odds of guessing what’s inside this famed Obamacare replacement plan.
No, not even Sen. Mike Lee, who was himself recruited into a working group that he and others thought would “be in charge of writing this bill,” has set eyes on the thing…
Recruiting Mike Lee was just another fish in my face, he’s being used. I hope that pisses him off. You know they knew better than to try that shit on Ted Cruz, he’s already called McConnell a lying bitch.
Repeal And Replace! is “fix”, so neither ‘repeal’ nor ‘replace’. As Obamacare is collapsing before our eyes, as more and more companies are opting out, these assholes are trying to keep the power. Any bill they use to Repeal And ReplaceTM will require vast influxes of our great grandchildren’s money.
At least we aren’t going to have to pay for it. Well, maybe with societal collapse, but at least taxes will be lower for a while. Until the warlords take over I guess. Since I’m hoping for that position myself, my taxes will still be low.
‘It would be a very, very sad day for Republicans’ if Nancy Pelosi steps down, Trump says 5 Hours Ago | 00:54
President Donald Trump said he hopes House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi does not step down from her post.
In an appearance on “Fox & Friends” that aired on Friday, Trump said he would like Pelosi to stay right where she is because she has an “extraordinary record against her.”
“It would be a very, very sad day for Republicans if she steps down. I would be very disappointed if she did,” Trump said.
Without Nancy using her charm to keep the Democrats in lockstep the GOP might have to actually explain why they’re not able to do what they’ve been elected to do.
“We have urged the White House not to replace on-camera briefings with ‘gaggles,’ not-for-broadcast question & answer sessions,” Mason said in a statement.
Yeah, nobody watches them anymore, they’re just a bunch of angry children whining at Spicer.
“We believe strongly that Americans should be able to watch and listen to senior government officials face questions from an independent news media, in keeping with the principles of the First Amendment and the need for transparency at the highest levels of government,”
That ship has sailed. You assholes are not “independent” except in the sense that you’re a herd of assholes who hate Trump. We just got done with the most transparent administration ever and you assholes ignored all the felonies they transparently committed. Pardon us if we don’t give shit one about you angry, Democrat, partisan ignoramuses.
Trump’s been about the best case scenario for me. I knew he’d do northeast GOP stuff, but I’d hoped he cut regulations and screw with all the idiots. Mission Accomplished.
I’d also hoped that, being the CEO type he is, he’d hire really good people and leave them alone to do their jobs.
Trump’s reliance on his generals shows that he values merit over politics.
Donald Trump earned respect from the Washington establishment for appointing three of the nation’s most accomplished generals to direct his national-security policy: James Mattis (secretary of defense), H. R. McMaster (national-security adviser), and John Kelly (secretary of homeland security).
In the first five months of the Trump administration, the three generals — along with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, the former Exxon Mobil CEO — have already recalibrated America’s defenses.
I figure he told Tillerson and Mattis to have fun, just don’t launch nukes without letting him know first.
The deadly collision between a U.S. destroyer and a container ship June 17 took place while the freighter was on autopilot, according to Navy officials…
Investigators so far found no evidence the collision was deliberate.
Nobody’s buying. Especially after all the non-information ‘information’ we’ve been getting.
The “interfaith” movement has reached an important milestone: a mosque has been constructed inside a church in Berlin. Everyone is excited and happy about this significant event, which allows people of all faiths to come together under one roof in peace and harmony and etc blah yak.
Inside their church? How about when an Orthodox priest can have mass in the Hagia Sophia?
I won’t want to laugh, but I might have to when a guy comes out of the mosque and blows himself up in the church.
I haven’t read the article, and I’m not gonna because I’ve read enough stupid shit today and, while this might not be stupid, it surely looks that way, but I love the headline.
BRITAIN ORDERS IMMEDIATE PROBE INTO FRIDGE THAT STARTED DEADLY BLAZE
That headline epitomizes Akbar Britain in a way that nothing I write could. Like when they investigate people who say bad things about Muslims instead of investigating the Muslims who keep murdering their subjects.
Remember when we had citywide units? A few hundred cops that the Department could call out for situations exactly like this? This event isn’t a secret – it’s been going on for years. Units like the old Task Force morphed into Gangs morphed into Special Operations, Targeted Response or Mobile Strike Force. Three-hundred cops who could have days off canceled at a moment’s notice along with District Gang/Tact teams gave the Department a force of 500 or so to deal something like this ..
Now CPD has 25 cars show up? For a crowd numbering 1,000? A crowd that’s been drinking and smoking all night without any interference from authorities? With (we’re betting) a few hundred guns? And nothing has been done for years? In a city that has abandoned the rule of law? What exactly are the police supposed to do?
That can’t end well. Rahm does not understand how to run a crime family like Chicago. He’s spending far too much of their money paying off his buddies while screwing over the city.
He’ll leave soon and everybody will say he failed but he will have siphoned off $billions for himself and his friends. The misery he leaves behind is not his concern. It’s a hallmark of Clintons and their istas after all.
Paying attention to reality is not our fine social, moral, intellectual and political betters’ forte.
…three Little League baseball games on the West Side during an event this week meant to build connections between two Chicago neighborhoods that grapple with violence.
So how did those games go? See those first ellipses?
Gunfire interrupted three Little League baseball games…
Yeah, about how anybody with a clue would expect. I am a little surprised they didn’t beat on each other using the bats.
Sorry, I forgot the score.
at least nine shots were fired around 6:45 p.m. Wednesday. No one was hit, but the fields were cleared.
A shutout! It’s not often Chicago gets a shutout. In gangland, that’s the opposite of a pitcher’s duel. You’d think after last year’s World Series of murder victory they’d be better but that’s what happens when you get cocky.
President Trump fired back at reports Wednesday that he’s being investigated by Special Counsel Robert Mueller for possible obstruction of justice.
“They made up a phony collusion with the Russians story, found zero proof, so now they go for obstruction of justice on the phony story. Nice,” he tweeted Thursday morning.
Rep. Mark Sanford, a Republican from South Carolina, said Thursday morning that President Donald Trump is “partially to blame” for the rhetoric that led to Wednesday’s shooting during the GOP baseball practice in Alexandria, Virginia.
“I would argue that the president is at least in partially — not in any way totally — but partially to blame for demons that have been unleashed
Yes, he ran for office, said stuff that got half the electorate happy and got elected. For that, he can never be forgiven.
Just a few days ago, a woman associated with Antifa attacked a police horse, using a flagpole with nails extending from it. At the same incident in Pennsylvania, other Antifa terrorists had sharpened bamboo poles and baseball bats…
Conservatives and those perceived to be conservatives have been attacked. The weapons have included glitter-filled gel, urine bombs, chains, bicycle locks and baseball bats. As their violence becomes more intense, it is now only a question of when, not if, someone will be killed.
Oh wait, that was just the regular violence against people who disagree with our fine, lefty betters. And it was before that Bernie Bro tried to assassinate a political enemy.
I had figured impeachment would be first, it really ticks me off when I’m too naive and trusting.
Washington Post
Opinion: The baseball shooting wasn’t an attack on the GOP. It was an attack on all of us.
I actually agree with them. Well, sorta kinda. That guy exposed that the Wash Post’s rhetoric encourages political murder. That’s an attack.
Also, as we saw above, the GOP is far more on the side of the Wash Post than mine, so an attack on them is an attack on the Wash Post.
So not “us” so much as “Us Better People!!!!!”.
Here we have the NY Times smearing not just Sarah Palin, but… surrounding a story so you know what’s what and who’s who.
The original “mistake” wasn’t. That’s Holy Writ for leftists. The “correction” won’t be seen in the print edition, which is the point.
I hope Sarah Palin sues the shit out of them and wins $millions.
Also notice the “including a 9-year-old girl”, they never mention Judge John Roll who was killed when that crazy guy who was angry about grammar went on a shooting spree.
They need to mention a lefty gun grabber and a child, they need to grab my guns and show the Right is where the real violence is, mentioning anything that screws up that narrative is verboten.
A Trump Is Pissing Me Off Moment.
The other day when I saw Tillerson had said that the Palestinians were going to stop paying for terrorism I laughed at the very idea.
Palestinian officials stated on Wednesday that they have no intent to stop these terror payments. However, the Trump administration still endorses a budget proposal that would increase aid to the Palestinian government by nearly five percent, bringing the total amount of U.S. aid to around $215 million.
Oh wait, I mean I wuz right.
Of course.
Jeezum. it doesn’t take a rocket surgeon to figure out the middle east. You just have to pay attention to what they do, not what they and our fine media betters say.
I don’t know what the hell they’re doing giving those murderous assholes any money, much less more money. But here we are.
President Trump’s pledge to wipe out the notoriously violent MS-13 gang is gaining traction — at least in the Empire State.
Federal officials have rounded up close to 40 accused members of MS-13 in New York City and Long Island in the 30 days following vows by Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions to crack down on the gang, known for terrorizing immigrant communities.
Of the 45 New York-area gang arrests over the last month by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Homeland Security, 39 were affiliated with MS-13,
Good. We do not need to import vicious, savage, murderous gangs, our fine media betters have been providing quite enough of that. That’s surely not jobs Americans won’t do.
Notice the “At least in NY”, they could have checked to see that he is doing it all over the country, but they have to take shots at him. Never Trumpers to the end!
More Trump doing his job in getting that nitwit back from the Norks. I’m a little surprised by this.
Doctors treating Otto Warmbier, the comatose US student released from North Korean detention this week, said Thursday the 22-year-old had suffered extensive brain damage, the cause of which remains unknown…
The doctors said Warmbier’s severe brain injury was most likely — given his young age — to have been caused by cardiopulmonary arrest cutting the blood supply to the brain…
Kanter added that body scans had revealed no evidence of acute or healing fractures to the chest, abdomen or skull.
I figured there would be all manner of damage to his skull. So instead of beating him, they choked him. I would have expected lots of beatings.
Get out your Bi-Partisan squeezy bulbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (you can use your regular GOP one if that’s all you have)
GOP voters device
Senate Votes To Sanction Russia For Helping Obama In Syria and Hacking Our Election!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and invading Crimea.
The Senate on Wednesday voted overwhelmingly to impose tough sanctions against Russia for meddling in the US election, invading Crimea and backing Syrian strongman Bashar al-Assad.
The bill — which passed by a 97-2 margin — includes language that would prevent President Trump from lifting the sanctions without congressional approval.
I’m not linking it because I care, it’s too idiotic. I’m linking for What The Fuck Happened To The NY Post? reasons.
“Democrats and Republicans are joining together to warn the president he cannot lift sanctions without our approval,” said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (F-NY).
They also have a picture of Chuck Schumer for the story. Why have the Minority Leader? There’s no mention of McConnell. Are they pushing Dems to go with their Never-Trumpism or are they subtly explaining that Chuck Schumer is running the Senate from the Minority position.
I figure it’s the first, We Hate Trump bullshit. Adios NY Post, it was fun while it lasted. We’ll always have Headless Body Found In Topless Bar.
Sens. Mike Lee (R-Utah) and Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) were the no votes.
Bravo. There are plenty of reasons to fuck with Putin, doing it over some idiotic lies is pathetic.
Moldova, a former Soviet state that has long been the focus of a struggle for influence between Russia and the West, expelled the diplomats on May 29. It did not explain the decision, with Prime Minister Pavel Filip saying only that his government had “good reasons”.
According to the sources, who are familiar with the case, the five were ejected because of their alleged activities as undercover officers with the Russian military intelligence agency, the GRU.
They said Moldovan officials believed the Russians were recruiting fighters from Gagauzia, an autonomous southern region home to an ethnic Turkish population that is pro-Russian and opposes closer integration with the European Union.
Like that. Fomenting war around the region so he can rebuild the USSR would be a good reason. But our fine Congressional betters are focused laser-like on fucking us and getting Trump.
Russia can use nuclear weapons in the event of an armed conflict in Northern Europe, according to a report released by Swedish Defense Research Agency…
In particular, Swedish experts noted that the Russian Federation was modernizing and increasing its arsenal of short-range nuclear weapons while the West was reducing nuclear weapons, the agency reports.
According to the experts, the Russian Federation is convinced that it is possible to win a local nuclear war and, therefore, the threat of a nuclear conflict can arise faster than during the Cold War.
That italiced part is more of Obama’s smirt duhplomacy paying off.
I like this blog, I’m not sure why that name though. Should be “Commonsense Is A Wonder” but then, it’s not my blog.
He had just left his office by car and was passing a nearby church when the state security vans swooped in on Wilmer Azuaje.
Put on a military plane hours later on May 3, the 40-year-old regional lawmaker – one of the best-known opposition figures in the rural home state of former Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez – has not been seen since.
“He’s disappeared. They kidnapped him. There is complete silence,” said his mother, Carmen Cordero, who has been traveling between Barinas state and the capital, Caracas, to seek information on him at the headquarters of national intelligence service Sebin.
Murdering their political opponents. Now that’s socialism done right! Right US Democrats?
The “Can the Tax Coalition” is trying to get the word out to warn Cook County residents that they’ll be paying anywhere from 29 percent to 67 percent more for cans, cases, 2-liter containers or gallons of drinks.
I wonder if any of the soda bootleggers will call himself Al Capone.
Eh, no matter what I’m sure it’s going to make violence skyrocket. Well, it’ll increase, I’m not sure if Chicago will still be there if it skyrockets.
The Hearing Protection Act has been attached to the SHARE act, which is a sportsman’s omnibus bill, and what a glorious omnibus it is. Of the important things the SHARE act does:
Eliminates the sporting purposes language from GCA ’68 and the law on armor piercing ammunition. Creates a blanket exception for shotguns to prevent arbitrary reclassification as destructive devices. Moves silencers/suppressors from Title II to Title I (no longer an NFA item). Preempts states from playing games to discourage silencers but does not outright prevent states from banning them. (limited preemption) Enhances the FOPA language to include travel by means other than vehicles. Creates remedies against states that violate the safe travel provisions, including a cause of action and attorneys fees. A bunch of hunting related shit I don’t really care about.
Can you tell I want silencers? I refuse to beg the gov’t if I can get one, they’re safety devices and should be safe, legal and ubiquitous.
The bolded part is the Fuck NJ Act. Those sonsobitches love stealing your guns while you’re legally driving through and making you spend years and $thousands to get your legally owned and transported property back. Cuz Chris Christie is a real conservative!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That was one Chinese man’s reality until doctors removed nearly 30 inches of his swollen large intestine which weighed 13 kilograms, or 28.6 pounds, and was filled with feces which had been collecting there since birth.
Inverse reports that the anonymous man was diagnosed with Hirschsprung’s disease, a congenital condition caused by missing nerve cells in the bowel, which results in, ahem, movement issues
In a rare instance of leaking under the Clinton Administration, a newly published memo authored by F.B.I. Director James Comey proves that he thought that he and President Hillary Rodham Clinton would: “Live in a mansion in Hawaii, have 74 children, and drive a limo,” according to instincts that Comey committed to paper during an epic game of M.A.S.H.
In intelligence circles, “M.A.S.H.” is spy slang for “Mansion, Apartment, Shack, House.”
According to people who have seen the memo, Comey’s ultimate prediction for his occupation is unintelligible: Comey drew a vague, halting and self-referential circle encompassing two seemingly contradictory options:
1) “All-powerful attorney.”
2) “Starbucks barista.”
I find it hard to believe a leftist could be that funny on purpose.
On Wednesday, Senator John McCain told the Washington Post that during the 2016 election, he defied his party to cast a vote for the Democratic nominee, Hillary Rodham Clinton, who he characterized as a “terrific person” and “American hero.”
“I disagree with her about many things. But she’s a great fucking president, and I always knew she would be a credit to our country,” said McCain, citing Clinton’s professionalism and soaring approval rating. “I’m a patriot first and a Republican second. I was never going to vote for that rapist confederate flag, Donald Trump. He appalls me. He would literally be a disaster,” McCain told the Washington Post’s Karen Tumulty.
That, of course, could be in the NY Times or Wash Post. As a matter of fact, did I post that NY Times article here?
“Thank God we dodged that bullet,” McCain laughed.
According to the Senate historian David Blight, it’s the first time in American history that a former presidential nominee voted against a subsequent nominee of the same party. “Ballots are secret, so they may have done it, but they certainly didn’t talk about it,” said Blight.
Yeah, and our GOP can’t shut up about it.
See? Those last two posts are the tell.
So…Satire.
I might change my mind in the future, but I’m going with Funny on Purpose for now.
Going to Vegas for my niece’s wedding tomorrow early.
I won’t be bringing my computer, I’ll have my phone. I don’t usually tube in Vegas, I do read a little but don’t expect to see me here until Sunday or Monday (depending on if I’m out of cash Sun morning)
Election machines in three states were not hacked to give Donald Trump the election.
There was never a serious post-election movement of electors to defy their constitutional duties and vote for Hillary Clinton.
Nor, once Trump was elected, did transgendered people begin killing themselves in alarming numbers.
Nor were there mass resignations at the State Department upon his inauguration.
Nor did Donald Trump seek an order to “ban all Muslims” from entering the U.S. Instead, he temporarily sought a suspension in visas for everyone, regardless of religion, from seven Middle Eastern states that the Obama administration had earlier identified as incapable of properly vetting travelers to the U.S.
The first lady did not work for an elite escort or prostitute service. She never said that she and young Barron Trump would not be moving to the White House. Barron does not have autism.
Trump’s father never ran racist ads as a supposed candidate in a purported political campaign. Kellyanne Conway denies that in a private conversation between segments on MSNBC, she privately remarked to hosts that she had to take a shower after working for Trump.
Donald Trump never suggested to the Mexican president that the U.S. was going to invade Mexico. Nor did Trump plan to mobilize the National Guard to send back illegal aliens.
He did not remove a Martin Luther King bust from the White House.
There was no evidence that he ever promised to ease Russian sanctions (much less that he promised the Russians he would be “flexible” after he was elected). He did not short the FBI of resources to conduct an investigation into supposed Russian collusion. He did not go to Moscow and watch prostitutes in his bed urinate where Barack Obama had previously slept.
His deputy attorney general did not threaten to resign over the Comey firing.
And we have no idea whether Trump really gets two scoops of ice cream while limiting his guests to one, or pads around in a bathrobe in the early evening, or cannot find the light switch in the White house.
Yet all that is what daily we hear and read.
Meanwhile . . . (this is the time when you make with the clicky, V)

The Five Most Important Takeaways from Trump’s Budget
May 23, 2017 by Dan Mitchell
It’s both amusing and frustrating to observe the reaction to President Trump’s budget.
I’m amused that it is generating wild-eyed hysterics from interest groups who want us to believe the world is about to end.
But I’m frustrated because I’m reminded of the terribly dishonest way that budgets are debated and discussed in Washington. Simply stated, almost everyone starts with a “baseline” of big, pre-determined annual spending increases and they whine and wail about “cuts” if spending doesn’t climb as fast as previously assumed.
President Trump asked two of the nation’s top intelligence officials in March to help him push back against an FBI investigation into possible coordination between his campaign and the Russian government, according to current and former officials.
Now, there’s no reason to believe this, the Wash Post lies. they make up sources and even if they have sources, how can “former officials’ know this? Who are the current officials? Is it Clapper and Comey? (the two cs in coup, coup)
So judging by the Wash Post’s track record, it’s probably a lie. But if it isn’t….
Trump was trying to get them to tell the truth. But they didn’t, Clapper and Comey just keep lying, obfuscating and innuendoing and where has that lead us?
More than half of Democrats believe Russians tampered with vote tallies in order to swing the election for President Trump.
I really cannot figure out how lefties think but why aren’t they advocating war with Russia?
If I thought that I’d be up in fucking arms demanding we go to war with Russia. Democrats only want to get Trump.
Are they all lying sacks of shit or do some of them actually believe the lies and hate they spew?
These are the questions that don’t keep me up at night. Who really cares? You treat them like the chubby-fisted, sippy-cup bangers they are either way.
This has never been reported, it was angrily asked back when this shit started, “Do you think Russians changed votes? No? Then shut up.” But since the people in charge of investigating this shit are lying, obfuscating and innuendoing, here we are. In crazy land. With much of America thinking Russia committed an act of war but those people are not mad at Russia, they’re mad at me for voting for Trump. And their daddies. But that’s a whole nother post.
Fox News staffers expressed frustration on Monday that on-air personalities at their network like prime time host Sean Hannity are continuing to peddle a conspiracy theory about the murder of Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich.
“I’m disgusted by it,” one Fox News employee (Hey Shep! V) told CNN.
First, why is Shep Smith talking to CNN instead of reporting on this?
Second, I’m with CNN and Shep on this one. Because there’s no evidence or pattern of Hillary haters being killed conveniently and in odd circumstances! That’s the real crazy talk!
One question, what about all the Dems who believe the fake news that Russians hacked vote totals? Why aren’t you busily exposing that?
I know, they’re fomenting it, but I just like to pretend we’re in a different world sometimes. It’s more restful there. The beer is all European and the sunsets get cool purples almost every night.
Let’s take a break from insanity and focus on the real enemy.
This is the response from the Met Police to the slaughter of our children in Manchester https://t.co/6VwTMk9mew— Katie Hopkins (@KTHopkins) May 23, 2017
It’s a good thing they’re investigating extremists! I mean, just cuz those savages went after a concert filled with young teens at the moment when their parents were there to pick them up doesn’t mean we need to be rude!
Think about that, they blew up their bombs so the children could see their parents blown up and parents could see children blown up and the police are going after someone who doesn’t want it to happen again. She didn’t advocate violence, she said it has to stop.
So to the Brit Police, wanting to stop terrorists is worse than being a terrorist.
It’s a good thing the gov’t took their guns! They need to know their place!
Think my comment on the Brit police and their priorities is harsh? Possibly, doesn’t make it untrue.
Abedi was known to the security services but was not part of any active investigation or regarded as a high risk. He was viewed as a peripheral figure in much the same way as the Westminister attacker, Khalid Masood.
I’m not sure what they’re going to do with that hateful….white-privileged person above, but it surely won’t be less lenient than they treated those two misunderstood youths who were just trying to make a statement about the Crusades! I’d say the police are harsher toward that hateful person. She’s not gonna blow anybody up if they fuck with her after all.
To all the willful idiots in the media who are saying, “We don’t know if he acted alone. Authorities say he detonated it alone.”
So he had a button I’d guess, but I wouldn’t take that statement without a grain of salt. They lie a lot to Prevent The Backlash Against The True Victims Of This Attack, so it could have been a cell phone detonator and this fool thought he was just going to drop it off and then set it off but someone beat him to the boom.
The other idiocy is about acting alone. Where would he get bomb-making materials? Detonators? Know-how?
I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t know how to make a bomb. I’m in America so I could get ammo fairly easily and use that I’d guess but I’d be worried about the detonator. All I know about detonators is that I’d want either a very damn long fuse or a useful idiot to test it out. Over there preferably (points out in the desert).
That shit scares me. I don’t mess with electricity either. A man has to know his limitations.
So I’m gonna go out on a limb and say this guy had help making his bomb at least. So no, he didn’t work alone.
Lest we get too tied up in the media ignoring the murderous dictator in Venezuela, let’s take a look at another, closer, murderous dictator they’re busy ignoring! The one their God-President gave great concessions to and got jack and shit in return (and jack’s out squatting). No, not the Iranians. No, not the Chinese. No, not the fucking Norks, I’m talking about Cuba. Cuba! Geez, I said “closer” than Venezuela. Get a globe.
Cuban officials put a stop to the launch of a new independent magazine after several warnings and threats to island journalists.
Five journalists were warned about starting a magazine called Identidades — or “Identities“ — which drew attention from authorities at the Department of State Security and the National Revolutionary Police May 19 and 20.
Hernandez said he was intimidated by DSE officer Lucas when being subpoenaed at the police station, where an officer insinuated that he could “end up like Mexican journalists: dead” if he continued his work. (emphasis me V, it’s emphasizable cuz our fine media betters ignore it.)
Our journolisters can’t be assed to cover either the murderousness of murderous commie dictatlors or Mexican cartels that supply their drugs, they’re busy making up lies about their real enemies; people who can keep Democrats from being elected.
United Nations experts investigating violations of sanctions on North Korea have suffered a “sustained” cyber attack by unknown hackers with “very detailed insight”into their work, according to an email warning seen by Reuters on Monday.
And in related news…
Symantec says ‘highly likely’ North Korean hacking group behind ransomware attacks
Look at this
Is that picture a good illustration of a place that can educate, train and deploy such uber-competent hackers?
Do you think that maybe, just maybe, there’s another country, possibly bordering the Norks to the north, who could help them with those sorts of things? A country that sent a million troops to keep them commie? A country not named “America” or “Australia”, which countries are the only countries that voluntarily go home after kicking out invaders.
Defense lawyers plan to argue that religious freedom is at the core of the case in which two physicians and one of their wives are charged with subjecting young girls to genital cutting. All three are members of the Dawoodi Bohra, a small Indian-Muslim sect that has a mosque in Farmington Hills.
On the one hand, Muslims are just about the highest group with victimhood for lefties. I mean, they only savage other wogs’ vaginas, so rich, white lefties can safely ignore it, but it’s happening to wymyns who are also children.
I just want to see how they square the irregular polygon that is the idea that refusing to bake a cake for a gay wedding is worthy of loss of all worldly goods and ability to make a living versus the idea that savaging a child’s hoo ha is okay cuz of freedom of religion.
It won’t be funny, but it might just make more people look and say, “You’re fucking crazy. Shut up.”
Probably gonna piss some people off, but what the hell.
I remember vomiting like this.
There’s nothing like projectile vomiting when you’re a little kid and it’s not alcohol related.
I remember my whole body feeling cleaned out after doing that, it’s better than your best dump.
I am going to live in a trailer park. Words I thought I’d never say. No, really. But when they raised my rent I decided to move and found out that I would have to pay $700+ to live some place I’d want to live. So I started looking at trailers, you buy the trailer and lease the spot it’s on, or move the trailer for $10k I guess. So I found one in Tempe for $10k with new appliances and in very good shape in a nice park near 101, 202, the Cubs spring training and Mesa Riverwalk park, it’s $500+/month. I took care of the paperwork for a background check for the park today so I just tubed shortly this morning.
Current and former U.S. officials, supposedly concerned that President Trump had shared some “highly classified information” with the Russian foreign minister and ambassador to the U.S. last week, leaked that information to the Washington Post in an article published Monday.
That raises so many questions. First, what is the Wash Post going to do when this sack of lies falls apart? How about CNN? How about Foxnews?
In addition, his national security adviser, who was at the meeting, told the Post nothing was shared that was not already publicly known…
McMaster later told reporters at the White House, “Other senior officials who were present, including the secretary of state, remember the meeting the same way and have said so. Their on-the-record accounts should outweigh those of anonymous sources. I was in the room, it didn’t happen.”
I know who I trust, and I’m pretty sure I’m not alone in that. Anonymous sources haven’t had a good week in DC. Well, except for whoever leaked the HORRIFIC NEWS that Trump gets two scoops of ice cream.
Nother question, notice who is “concerned”, “…former U.S. officials”. How do former U.S. officials know anything about what’s going on now? Was the classified information from when they were still U.S. officials or from after? Isn’t it a felony if they do know anything? Why isn’t there an independent counsel investigating this? We Demand Answers!
More nother questions, Who are the “Current” officials? Why are they anonymous? Why should we trust them? Why should we trust the Wash Post? After the last week of wall-to-wall lies followed by corrections or just memory-holing.
Chicken fucking from the Post article.
One day after dismissing Comey, Trump welcomed Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Ambassador Sergey Kislyak — a key figure in earlier Russia controversies
Squwark!
This is my favorite part
As president, Trump has broad authority to declassify government secrets, making it unlikely that his disclosures broke the law.
You know it killed them to write that even if they did include the weasel phrase about how it’s unlikely he broke the law. If you take out everything between the comma and the period that sentence is accurate, if over-commaed. Fakenewsers gonna fakenews.
Since I’m worked up and the “new post” is right here, might as well do some more links.
Reading it you realize that everything everybody said against it is a lie, distortion or just stupidity. Or all three I guess. Yeah, that’s the way to bet.
It starts out talking about the previous order that a different judge’s politics struck down, then explains he doesn’t want people from terrorist countries, terrorist countries that are our avowed enemies and terrorist countries that do not have anything resembling an even decent central gov’t. Then, he explains he’s going to ” collect and make publicly available the following information: ” on illegal actions of foreign nationals in America.
I figure that was the real sin. Noticing and telling people certain things are very bad in lefto-fascist world.
A few years ago a building in Minneapolis blew up in a suspicious manner. After much searching, I found that the building was full of young Somali men and had a halal grocery and mosque in it. The FBI said “gas”, the gas company said, “not gas”, they razed the building immediately so there was no investigation. I figured it looked like a work accident and everybody involved acted as if they were covering up a work accident but I couldn’t be sure.
In today’s exciting episode, we see that it might not have been a work-accident, but it’s not for not trying.
Minneapolis police uncovered an arsenal of guns and bomb-making devices during a routine arrest last week…
nside, the officers found a hand grenade, handgun, assault rifles and magazines and a large quantity of ammunition, the complaint said. They also found cellphones, computers and electronics equipment, including drone parts.
Bomb squad personnel called to the scene noted that the large amount of ammunition and electronic devices could be used for bomb-making, the complaint said.
It’s a good thing those judges are protecting us from Trump!
This scares me though.
Abdullah N. Alrifahe, 27, of Minneapolis, was charged with a gross misdemeanor for carrying a pistol in public without a permit. In December, he was convicted of the same offense.
It could not be determined whether the FBI or another federal agency is investigating.
He had a hand grenade and they charged him with a misdeameanor.
I can’t even get a dam hand grenade and this guy can. Sonomabatch.
Sometimes I hate being a, generally, law-abiding person.
There are people, influential people, who nod and agree. People who think I’m anti-science because I don’t believe in global worming.
Gender is a social construct. I actually had plans to explain why that’s so stupid, but I don’t want to insult anybody unnecessarily and if I have to explain it to you then perhaps you are on the wrong blog. Balloon Juice is right over there (points left).
A man covered in blood, holding a knife and carrying his mother’s severed head walked into an Estacada grocery store and stabbed an employee Sunday
Now, it’s not funny at all but I am a little twisted so…if your mom is upset you didn’t get her the right flowers yesterday you can tell her at least you didn’t chop off her head before going to the supermarket to look for cheap flowers. Puts things in perspective.
I am so sick of all the Concerned and Alarmed idiocies about how firing Comey is the End of the Republic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let’s see if I can ignore Comey for this post.
There’s something about this vid that I really like.
I’m not sure what it is, but I just like watching that.
Victor Davis Hanson wonders if Trump can successfully remodel the GOP. Trump has some help in that, but as we’ve seen, the voters have very limited power to change the gov’t in our particular form of republic. We can change the names of our ‘leaders’, but we apparently have little more power to change the policies than residents of a People’s Republic or even a Democratic People’s Republic.
And this is why
Republicans concentrate on what they like in the Trump agenda — military spending increases, energy expansion, deterrence abroad, tax and regulatory reform, and the repeal and replacement of the Affordable Care Act — and they ignore the inherent contradictions between Trumpism and their own political creed…
In this mainstream Republican view, the role of a superpower is to endure trade deficits to help its less powerful allies and keep the global order prosperous and stable. But Trump’s idea of “fair” trade trumps “free” trade.
Trump is not willing to accept a permanent Midwest Rust Belt as the price of globalization.
Yup. They think that people who want to revitalize American manufacturing are parochial and just not that bright. If we have to pay for their vision of how the world works, well, that’s what welfare is for!
At first he seemed to be defending our fine political betters, but then he noticed reality in a way that’s very intelligent (i.e. agrees with what I think)
More
Unlike doctrinaire Republicans, Trump believes that illegal immigration is a big — and bad — deal.
The Republican establishment’s employer argument is that illegal immigration ensures that the sort of work “Americans won’t do” is actually done. Or, some establishment Republicans believe that undocumented migrants who cross the southern border will one day become conservative, “family values” voters.
Not so Trumpism. It seeks to help the working class by stopping the importation of cheap labor. It believes that secure borders will restore the sanctity of law, and that the end of illegal immigration will lead to greater integration and assimilation of Latino minority groups.
Exactly. The way we integrated immigrants for 200 years is just so simplisme! The Melting Pot is racist and cannot be taught anymore! Diversity is our strength!
While having diverse opinions can be strengthening, we are balkanizing. Immigrants from previous generations are only different in the food they eat and the booze they drink in general. That includes many (most?) Mexicans, although that numbers was a higher percentage of the whole a few decades ago.
Trumpism has no illusions that there will ever be a world of liberal democracies. It seeks instead only to make sure enemies understand that any future aggression will not be worth the anticipated benefits.
Nuke The Moon! baby. We don’t need our enemies to like us, they won’t, we just need them to respect and fear us. Or just fear us. But respect makes it easier to intimidate.
As for dictators such as those in the Philippines or Egypt, Trumpism argues that it makes little sense to snub autocratic friends while cutting deals with autocratic enemies like those in Iran or Cuba.
That’s a great point, why should we be nice to the murderous dictators in China and Iran and mean to non- or less-murderous assholes elsewhere? The asshole in the Philippines isn’t killing his opposition (yet?) and the assholes in Egypt are killing their natural enemies (Christians and insufficiently similar Muslims) but leaving the rest of the world alone. Even Israel mostly.
Obama and Hillary got rid of Mubarak without a plan, Trump shouldn’t do the same. Especially as a sane plan would include us getting involved there after deposing the current dictators. We are done Nation-Building for the foreseeable future. We just don’t have the balls to do it the way we did with Japan and Germany, “Here’s your constitution and gov’t. Meet your new military governor. He’ll be leaving when we can trust you not to be murderous assholes and can trust your neighbors not to invade you and make you differently murderous assholes.”
Now we run away.
On matters of identity politics, Republicans have often sought to play down but not actively oppose racial, ethnic, and gender pressure groups. The strategy has been to not antagonize the ethnic and race industries in hopes of receiving a greater share of the minority vote.
Trump is politically incorrect.
And it’s been hilarious.
Trump just keeps making end runs around Minitrue’s Narrative and the entire We’re Better And Smarter Than You Party is just freaking out. Their weapons are useless!
That would be Trump’s Twitter account. The one that gives our fine social, moral, political and intellectual betters such agita.
President Trump’s impulsive social media habit does little to advance his agenda, it pulls both his fans and critics into endless fights and it has created several major headaches for top White House staffers, including Sean Spicer and Kellyanne Conway.
That’s funny. Our fine betters in Minitrue, their entertainment arm, the rest of the Democratic party and most of the GOP are forced to change their actions because of Trump’s tweets. He got more action out of the country using social media than anyone since Sarah Palin put out her “Death Panel” deal.
It’s no small thing for a sitting president to appear to threaten a former FBI director. (shit, I thought I’d make it without Comeying V)
It’s even worse when that same director formerly headed an investigation into the role hostile foreign agents played in the election that swept said president into power.
Still fucking that Russia Hacked The Election!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! chicken I see. Once you see that you can safely assume that the idiot who wrote it is not processing reality. And even if it was 100% Russian Hacking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what did they do? The Job Americans Won’t Do, i.e. report accurately on Democrat perfidy and felonyizing. Above we saw that the GOP is all about foreigners doing the Jobs Americans Won’t Do but now they’re against it. Why…. it’s almost as if they use situational ethics where who is on the receiving end decides the morality and ethics of a position!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Assholes.
A non-exhaustive recap of the past week’s crop of Comey Fake News!!!!! that was breathlessly and shriekingly reported and (occasionally) quietlycorrected.
If you care. I skimmed it, I don’t really need a reminder of the lies, distortions, contortions and “anonymous” liars they have and are trotting out. The only use for it is that I think Americans are actually watching with dropped jaw as our betters freak out over something they had all, each and every fucking one, called for as little as a week ago.
Speaking of assholes from the We’re Better And Smarter Than You Party, John, I hate Veeshir, McCain!
Rep. Adam Schiff (Calif.), the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, offered high praise for Sen. John McCain on Friday, saying the Arizona Republican’s vocal criticism of President Trump marks his “finest hour.”
“I think frankly this is John McCain’s finest hour,” Schiff said on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher.”
The senior Arizona senator has also been critical of Trump’s “America first” approach to foreign policy,
Exactly. We gave the GOP victories in the last few elections because we didn’t like what the Dems were doing to our nation so what do the big shit sheep…grand poo bahs of the GOP do? Stuff that gets praise from Democrats. Asshole Democrats like Schiff.
Speaking of the entertainment arm of the Democratic media/entertainment political complex, The Last (conservative) Man Standing isn’t.
The cancellation by ABC of Tim Allen’s hit comedy “Last Man Standing”…
Allen’s biting and genuinely funny witticisms poking fun at all things liberal. Its humor is balanced, with the show featuring a Canadian liberal son-in-law who gets his points across…
the blue-collar sitcom was ABC’s second most watched comedy this season with 8.1 million viewers in Live +7, only behind flagship Modern Family (8,7 million). It was the third most watched ABC scripted series overall behind Grey’s Anatomy and Modern Family….(emphasis me V)
So they canceled one of the shows that people actually want to watch for their religion. Someone should tell them that tithing only requires 10%, not bankruptcy. Via Commonsense and Wonder.
The NY Post plays Name That Party! about a DA stepping back as he’s being criminally investigated.
allegations he took part in a police coverup involving former Suffolk Police Chief James Burke, who pleaded guilty in February 2016 to federal charges that he beat a man who stole a stash of porn and a sex toy from Burke’s official vehicle.
I don’t get the problem, misuse of gov’t property is a right and Dems covering up their accomplices in graft is how NY works! He looks sorta old, maybe the ass’t DA wasn’t interested in waiting for him to retire.
Nothing story about a Republican running for election has “irregularities” in his past, I’d say his mistake is he wasn’t high enough up in the hierarchy of the We’re Better And Smarter Than You Party to have the necessary degree of impunity.
Former South Carolina state senator Ralph Norman, who is running as the conservative candidate in the state’s fifth congressional district, sat on the board of a bank that accepted millions of dollars from the Obama administration’s 2008 bailout.
But I’m linking for the part I bolded. In 2008 Obama was not POTUS, that was Bush’ 2008 bailout.
Norman served on South Carolina Bank and Trust Financial Corporation’s board of directors in January 2009 when the bank sold $64.8 million in preferred stock and a 10-year warrant to the Treasury Department under its Capital Purchase Program, which was created as part of the federal government’s $700 billion bailout.
January, 2009 was when Obama ascended, that was Bush’s bailout. The one he rammed down the financial world’s throat.
The chief executives of the country’s nine largest banks had no choice but to accept capital infusions from the Treasury Department in October, government documents released Wednesday have confirmed.
Obtained and released by Judicial Watch, a nonpartisan educational foundation, the documents reveal “talking points” used by then-Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson during the Oct. 13 meeting between federal officials and the executives that stressed the investments would be required “in any circumstance,” whether the banks found them appealing or not.
Notice that in 2009 to that member in good standing of our fine media betters Judicial watch was “non-partisan”. (I know I missed a couple commas in there but I’m not sure where so here are a few you can insert ,,,)
But why is the Free Beacon obfuscating the issue of who started stimuluzing and bailouting while attacking this man as a Friend Of Obama? Is the “journalist” just an idiot or is there some sort of agenda in play?
Ralph Norman, who is running as the conservative candidate in the state’s fifth congressional district,
Are they joining the We’re Better And Smarter Than You Party or is it just that opinionator or are they angry that he’s not a conservative or some other, undisclosed, reason?
Because I’ll tell you what, taking money you’re forced to take by the POTUS from your party is not necessarily a sign that you’re not conservative.
Just something that confused me.
This is very messed up. In a story about a Gorsuch dissent (he was against the arrest), we see this.
The New Mexico incident began in 2011 when the student, known only as F.M. in court papers, kept interrupting his physical education class with fake burps. The teacher sent him into the hallway, where he continued burping and laughing as he leaned into the classroom entrance. (emphasis me V)
The teacher called for assistance on her school radio, and soon Arthur Acosta, a police officer assigned to the school, arrived in the hallway, according to court documents.
Acosta took the boy to the school’s office, then placed him under arrest for violating a New Mexico law that prohibits anyone from disrupting the education process. Acosta handcuffed the student and took him to the juvenile detention center, where the boy stayed about an hour until he was picked up…
I think it’s ridiculous that the kid was arrested, expel him if he’s that disrespectfully disruptive, but notice a few things.
There were cops patrolling the school, that’s not often done in schools where it’s not necessary. Maybe the cop knew the kid from previous interactions. Judging from what happened, I’m gonna assume this choir boy/orphanage-volunteer had previously had such disrespectful and disruptive episodes.
Also think about what he was doing.
Acosta’s lawyer says the criminal act was the boy’s “interference with the educational process, not the act of burping.”
Sure, it was burping and laughing, but he was showing a complete lack of respect for the teacher, the other students and the whole concept of school. Further, his actions showed that he was utterly unafraid of any repercussions. From my experience, I’m gonna assume calling the parents would not be a useful exercise.
There are a lot of kids like that, I’m not just saying that just from my teaching experience but from relatives’ kids and their friends.
School cannot work unless there’s respect flowing both ways. Respect for others is sorely lacking in today’s culture.
A Detroit-area high school is holding an all-girls prom
That’s not a prom. Jebus. How can you have a prom without prom-dates? Here’s the Tolerance part.
to create a comfortable and safe environment for girls who cannot attend the traditional co-ed prom for cultural reasons.
So in other words, the girls’ owners (male relatives) would beat them, honor-kill them, cut off their noses or just throw acid in their faces if they act like American girls.
I hate people sometimes. You really should not cater to that shit.
Now, for a little palate-washer, let’s look at the State of American Heavy Metal! They’re bad ass, they won’t cave to intolerant religious assholes who are intolerant!
Megadeth agreed to cut songs that were potentially “offensive” to Muslims after the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS) Youth group voiced its objection to them touring the country.
Oh.
I wish to offend no one here. We cut songs for China.”
Chinese authorities have hardened their line on foreign musicians, after Elton John infuriated them by dedicating a performance to outspoken artist and activist Ai Weiwei, according to industry sources. Police arrived to interview the singer shortly after he announced that the performance, which took place in Beijing last November, was dedicated “to the spirit and talent of Ai Weiwei”
So sad.
When people try to censor your art, you tell them to fuck off or you just do your deal.
However, he (Jeff Dunham V) was informed by the Ministry of Information, Communication and Culture that Achmed should not be mentioned or brought on to the show..
Dunham cleverly side-stepped the issue by introducing a new character; “Who knew that Achmed had a French cousin — Jacques, the dead French terrorist?” he says. “It was Achmed with a beret and mustache, and the audience loved it, thankfully. But I was a bit frightened there, too. I thought, ‘Will they drag me off the stage and make an example of me?’ I honestly thought that was a possibility, as you never know how strict and real these laws are.”
So in other words, a flamingly flamboyent homosexual musician, second only to Liberace in his flamboyence, flaming and homosexuality, and a guy who plays with dolls have more balls than Megadeth!
Still say 80s music has heart and soul?
This made me laugh when I saw it. I’d like to see the entire show, but even his specials only show bits and pieces.
That’s how you do it.
Relatedly, Trump appoints a Frenchman, Vladimierre Poutin, as head of the FBI!
Islanders goalie Thomas Greiss has apologized after he reportedly caused an outrage in Germany when it was discovered that he “liked” an Instagram post comparing Hillary Clinton to Adolf Hitler.
Although the way they’ve been trying to Stop Hockey’s Ultra-Violent Ways!!!!!!!!!!!! I should have figured SJW’s were paying attention.
One thing, I wonder if Hillary shaves anything like a Hitler mustache.
*smack*
Sorry, but if I had warned you you wouldn’t have read that and cringed.
The funniest thing I’ve heard hockey announcers say was when Montreal made Pierre Turgeon captain cuz he’s French-Canadian and a NY Islanders announcer said, “That’s ridiculous. If that were the case, the Islanders would have to have a Jew as captain!”
The next day I waited to see but nobody freaked out. I figured they were still exempt, but apparently the forces of Tolerance And Love have decided that every aspect of our lives needs to be Toleranced, Loved and Mostly-Peaced.
I found an inside look at one of the top journalists at the Wash Post!
They’re obviously very busy, that must be why their lies and Fake News are so pathetic.
but now I see that it wasn’t.
Oops, wrong scoop(s).
