But they have enough money to let him commute between his home in Newport Coast and Seattle on a private jet.

Bernie had it right. One party is owned by Russia and the plutocrats, the other by AIPAC and corporate lobbyists.
James Talerico had it right. The only 1% that's a problem are the billionaires.

Fun fact: Warren Zevon's father was a house player at a Gardena cardroom during the California Split timeline.
I've seen almost all of Altman's films (not Popeye). One of the greatest directors of my lifetime. The Player is probably my favorite.

Litmus test for Trump.

Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.

It's wack how often I agree with Doug Ford.

Your Republicaness is showing. He's probably going to be the nominee.

Save me a plate!

Like I posted elsewhere, looks like he found the racetrack in Manchester.

Rudy found the racetrack in Manchester.

It was a feature and not a bug.

Leave Andrew alone. Let him have his one last grifting of the ruling classes (and AIPAC) before he rides into the sunset.

Used to stay at the JW Marriott in BKK back in the day. Franchisee had contracts with every 3 letter US Gov agency.
Can't tell you how many times I saw guys take girls up to the room.
I don't subscribe to WaPo anymore, but I doubt I'd see anything really outrageous.

You not only have to consider the statistic but the statistician as well.
I'm not basing this on what some rando on YouTube or Substack is saying. All I'm saying is, I'm listening.
That was before the Rockland County thingy showed up.

The SO and I have this recurring debate: Was the American public this stupid? SO says yes. My point is, could both of us be right?
There is too much statistically going on not to be suspicious.
It feels like the circumstantial evidence is overwhelming but it could be confirmation bias.

In the coming days, you're going to hear about voting machines made by ES&S. The former name of ES&S? Diebold.

Let this sink in.

Even the Los Angeles Police Chief, Jim McDonnell, made it clear: the people protesting immigration raids were not the ones causing violence.

During a Sunday evening press conference, McDonnell condemned the violence as “disgusting”

Those guys are not only not cops, they wish they could play one on TV.

I wasn't sure what gender he was after either.

Where's his Oakleys?

Agree with most of this. I don't agree with the last sentence though. Many don't want the Wrong People, true, but they're not willing to pay a premium for it.

If you're on Threads, and post, "Who's with me?", or use any form of the verb "terrify" or say, "We are fucked", expect an instablock with extreme prejudice.
I don't have time for your amateurish attempt at rage/doom engagement farming.

I'm going to start spending more time here.
I'm not sure what irritates me most about Threads:
The evil algorithms ✅️
The rage/doom/engagement farming ✅️
The UN of bots replying to you, trying to trigger you ✅️
With a setup like Threads, who needs Russian-style disinformation?

This is probably the best parody account on social media.
It's staggering how often it gets outplayed by the target of the parody.
