A Doll In Every Pot

The AG is not the President's Lawyer.

this is 1,000x more effective than Schumer's earlier videos.

he's finally got someone on his staff who understands production.

Notably, at the time, she was not qualified or remotely serious.

The people voted for endless crises and it will be endless crises until the people choose otherwise.

Leaked audio of what Stephen Miller was hearing:

"STOP TALKING! STOP TALKING! SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU STUPID BASTARD! DO NOT SAY ANOTHER FUCKING WORD JUST STAND THERE AND LOOK LIKE AN IDIOT UNTIL THEY CUT AWAY! OH MY FUCKING GOD!"

They can't say "illegal" unless 6 specific people in robes say it is and they wont ever say anything Trump does is bad because Trump gave them their jobs.

If you exclude all the assholes in politics there's really not going to be a lot of people left.

My knock on Newsom is his political instincts are bad.

That scripted anodyne statement is part of his act?

clearly you need to switch to my 2am-7am schedule.

The key is to always be changing your sleeping patterns. Make your circadian rhythm your problem and all your other problems will disappear*.

*they will not be gone. your brain and body will be so screwed up you wont be able to focus on them.

The Venezuelan fishing boats are bringing the fentanyl to Canada and then smuggling it across the border.

I'm counting on the fact that Newsom is an execrable person with terrible political instincts to quickly sink his national aspirations.

This is personalism. It's the Charles I scenario -- the king rules without the a legislature and simply taxes and spends in whatever way he feels like.

Impeach, remove, disqualify.

The Titanic was thought to be capable of surviving an iceberg strike and might have too had the captain took the iceberg head-on, rather than trying to steer around it.

The engineers of that time weren't idiots. They planned for the worst case. And the real worst case was worse.

very irony

maybe they did and then they came right back.

RMS Titanic has entered the chat.

That probably explains why things went so badly!

I seem mad to you?

Trump was President for the good parts. Biden was President for the bad parts. This is true of every year since 2016.

It is suggestive that the "best case scenario" here is that it will be OK because Google owns everything.

my point, which is also accurate, is that all the klaxons should be going off when people start saying there's no risk to bad decisions.

we can't predict which directions the parts of the car may fly when it crashes into the wall at 100mph. Perhaps some of them will turn up in a useful place. Perhaps they will reassemble themselves spontaneously into a new and better car.

"there are no consequences for horrendously bad decisions" is a weird place to plant your flag.

art of the... what was the name of my book?

Ah yes, illegal drugs. Famously supply limited.

Bonnie and Clyde bucked tradition by robbing banks and shooting people.

Too much of what passes for analysis here is guys saying "There's absolutely no downside to my plan!" and like... yeah... that just means you haven't thought about it.

I think we do have to hope that voters decide (once and for all) that the obvious source of chaos *is* the source of the chaos.

We have to stop letting known assholes and provocateurs get away with "I was just joking!"

Yes. It was a joke. But the joke was that when conservatives say "lower taxes" they always (ALWAYS) mean "bring back slavery."

the Bush-era GOP would not have allowed Stephen Miller to become acting President
