Did he get it, though?

If the sub stays wrapped, you weren't attacked.

How do you feel about liabilities = assets - equity?

What are you talking about? Jeffries endorsed.

Also, as caucus leaders, their endorsements can be a bit fraught.

That's just martyrdom, though. A pyrrhic victory. Which is just a better-sounding way of saying you lost.

You're just saying, instead of losing the way we did, we should've lost a different way.

What was the purpose of enacting the new law if they were just going to detain everyone anyway? It's inconsistent in that, if this was the plan all along, why bother to enact the new law at all? It's superfluous.

I don't think you get a different result if Garland is more aggressive. Everything just happens sooner, & you feed the (false) "Biden is weaponizing DOJ" narrative.

GOP needed to convict Trump in his impeachment trial & disqualify him. Absent that, voters needed to reject him.

Neither happened.

They want another Big Billionaire Bailout bill.

Many are assholes, but there's a ton of manipulation out there, too, & it's somewhat unreasonable to expect everyone to be immune from mass, systemic, manipulation.

"We're building huge buildings that will cause mass unemployment, mass hysteria, & drive your water & electric rates through the roof."

She's no genius, but she's not dumb. She's just a liar.

The problem for her is, was she lying before, or is she lying now? And does it matter?

If she sincerely believed what she used to say, that's disqualifying. If she knew it was bullshit & said it anyway, that's also disqualifying.

Hard to convince those who heard him say he was going to deport violent criminals that he's going to do mass deportations of all immigrants.

Not only do they not believe it, but you come across as a deranged liar trying to convince them, like, "who are you going to believe? Me, or your lying eyes?"

I think his constant contradiction makes it hard. Ppl can cherry pick what they want to hear & believe, & then it gets a turbo boost by media & algorithmically driven ads also cherry picking what to show different segments.

Those who want a softer side, see it.

Those who want extremism, see that.

They need to get w/in cheating distance.

They can maybe cheat in one state w a thin margin, like 2000 FL, but can't cheat in multiple states and/or by large margins.

Successful cheating is always marginal. Move a ball, shave a stroke, cork a bat, etc. Those only matter if you're already close.

The only way it could inflict bodily harm is if you eat it.

Has ADL actually done anything in that regard?

But for ADL, would that not be possible?

Trump can & does turn on a dime. He can just change directions & pretend it was always thus.

But the entire USG doesn't turn on a dime, & some things, like the economy, are like trying to turn an ocean liner.

Soybean farmers are just fucked, & can only be saved by bailout, & how many can he do?

two men are talking in front of an open sign and one of them is saying it 's a gift Alt: Animated gif of Adrian Monk saying, "it's a gift... and a curse."

Not having any political beliefs:

He means data centers. And they do exist, and are making everyone's electric rates go up.

While they may employ a lot of people during construction, they employ very few once they're operational.

And they're intended to automate millions of jobs & cause mass unemployment.

Cheney died because he was a precog and saw this coming and it killed him.

Sickos meme, with the sicko looking in through a window, and a speech bubble saying, "yes... Ha ha ha... Yes!"

Carrot cake offers just the right amount of carrot.

Perhaps we've uncovered who paid off his debts.

He ran out of wars to stop, so he has to start a few so he can stop more. It makes perfect sense.

Also, he needs more wars to end so he can try to get a Peace Prize next year.

Wait, so this is someone else? Both the finance director AND the treasurer resigned within days of each other?!

Every accusation is a confession.

I think this is much harder than ppl imagine. US parties are extraordinarily weak. Essentially, every vote is a conscience vote here, & there's basically no remedy for members who don't toe the party line.

"Unpack the Court"

It's already packed, so the remedy it to unpack it.

But also, how are you just not coming around on this?! I was hoping it would be one of the first things Biden would do!
