OK then, on to…the links!
Oh, boo-hoo. What, you don’t like politicians going after you for making a decision based on politics? Then quit, asshole.
A fucking imbecile.
Oh, boo-hoo. This was delightful to see happen. Unless you’re a Texas Tech fan.
We’ve seen this before. And it typically wouldn’t be news. But as crazy as 2020’s been, she might finally kick it and make the election even more insane.
What kind of sick, twisted, sadistic fuck…would dare state facts like this? Doesn’t he know there’s a narrative that’s more important than the truth?
This was gonna happen one way or another. Now they need to get him checked into a loony bin.
That was a short-lived grift.
Shit, this didn’t last long. I don’t feel like it was milked for all it was worth, but them’s the breaks.
How the ever-loving fuck is this constitutional? Answer: it’s not, but nobody cares as much about rights as they do (the appearance of protecting) life.
This probably makes sense. Not a fan of bail-denial, but to be honest, this lady is a huge flight risk and she wouldn’t be safe if she were released.

Grrrrrrl Power! Enjoy!
Now get out there and have a great day, dear friends!
First, because Broccetta
Bro’s chet award really is more of a number 2 kinda guy anyway.
People give him shit, but I’d bet broccoli and pancetta on bruschetta would be really tasty.
bruschetta isn’t that great a bread product, if you have a choice, pick something else.
White Wonder Bread for the win!
Non-joking. Wonder Bread and Kraft slices grilled is one of my favorite comfort foods.
You’re right. Broccoli and pancettea en brochette would be better.
What does texas tech have to do with Jeff Sessions?
His opponent was a sportsball coach.
Tuberville, man. Tuberville.
I had forgotten TT coached at TT. Aubrun, Ole Miss, Cincinnati, those I remember.
I think people from those schools fondly remember. The Tech fans I know certainly do not.
Which is probably why, as an outsider to all of them, I remember the other 3.
I only know the name from the senate race.
I’m just glad that Sessions is done. Now he can retire to his palatial estate and shoot various rodents from the comfort of his porch swing. “There can only be ONE!”
Gnomes live in caves, do caves have porches?
Tuberville lost to Vanderbilt. If I’m an Alabamian, no way I’m voting for that guy.

St. Louis prosecutor investigating couple who brandished guns at protesters says governor and Trump are targeting her
He made a passing comment about the situation, lending moral support to the couple, in a Townhall interview…
So it’s confirmed? We can impeach Trump for obstruction of justice now, right?
Can’t imagine it’s possible to get a fair trail today with a case that is even remotely connected to politics these days. You know how the prosecutor and judge will handle things solely based on party affiliation.
Hawaiian Justices are famously fair and level headed. They even like pineapple on pizza! (I like it too!)
It’s not about a fair or any other kind of trial. The punishment is in the financial burden causes by making you deal with the broken and corrupt legal system. I am sure these rich lawyers can afford to fight them for a while, but in the end the state has unlimited resources while us common people don’t, and that’s what people like the asshole behind this counts on.
Modern marxists/fascists no longer send you to death or reeducation camps: they now destroy you financially and/or prevent you from earning a living. That’s the new way to punish those that dare object to their takeover of power.
She kinda looks like a pile of dirty laundry, too
President Donald Trump’s niece has one word of advice for her uncle: “Resign.”
Mary Trump issued the direct call to her uncle during an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that aired Tuesday, her first time speaking out about her new tell-all book.
“If you’re in the Oval Office today, what would you say to him?” Stephanopoulos asked Trump.
“Resign,” she replied.
——-
When asked by Stephanopoulos what is the single most important thing the country needs to know about her uncle, Trump didn’t mince words.
“He’s utterly incapable of leading this country — and it’s dangerous to allow him to do so,” she said.
The snippet of Mary Trump’s interview, which aired Tuesday night on “World News Tonight with David Muir,” came after a New York Supreme Court judge ruled Monday that the president’s niece was free to discuss her book after being blocked by a temporary restraining order. Robert Trump, the president’s brother, argued that the whole premise of the book violated a confidentiality agreement signed in 2001 to settle a family lawsuit.
Game over, man. We now have irrefutable testimony.
Man, the mainstream media wouldn’t even give an interview to Obama’s brother yet they’re rolling out the red carpet for a disgruntled niece? And the nonpartisan (oops, I mean former Dem presidential press secretary) George Snufalufagus no doubt!
I don’t normally go that low but that chick is pissed because she missed the money train that allows ugly people like Trump to grab themselves some pussy. Weren’t we just talking about the 10th Commandment yesterday?
Why would anyone give a shit about Trump’s niece? Oh, right, OMB.
“Who? Oh, my niece. She’s always been such a loser.”
I refuse to believe that the pillar of morality that is Donald Trump could have said or done anything that Mary Trump alleges. He is simply too virtuous.

The girlfriend’s aunt is upset that the girlfriend and I are taking a vacation (it’s a fucking weekend to Put-In-Bay, where testing the entire island found 66 cases this past weekend). She’s convinced we’re taking too big of a risk, and has said that when the girlfriend comes to visit her (in NOVEMBER) that the girlfriend will need to find a hotel rather then stay with her.
I guess this means a smaller turnout for Thanksgiving this year.

Well the niece and her boyfriend just moved to CA, and will be coming back for Christmas. So I’m on the hook to ship them at least some desserts. My family other then that is in full DGAF mode. Even my parents, who are both in the high risk groups. My sister and brother-in-law hosted a going away cookout for my niece, and the only people there social distancing were the BIL’s family.
On the plus side, it looks like I won’t need a full turkey this year. I’m thinking of trying the Alton Brown turketta recipe.

From the bar article:
The only thing shocking was the fucking line dancing. Businesses are now starting to drop like flies. Q4 is shaping up to be a real shitstorm. I expect (hope?) to see more of this fuck you attitude as the summer goes along. As you say, none of this is constitutional and can’t last much longer.
But I’ve been wrong before.
One thing I’m not wrong about is how fucking awesome Blondie is. I no longer wear suits but if forced it will be skinny ties for me.

When did it become so commonplace to drop all sense of neutrality in straight “news” articles? I mean they’ve always been slanted, but not like this. Opinion pages are what they are, but lately it’s just straight Pravda style one-sided POV news everywhere you turn.
I suppose ultimately that would be fine, but stop pretending like you’re a “news source” instead of a paper with a stated agenda.
“Welcome to Canada! We’ll have to detain dat dirty wrong t’ink ‘ere at da Border, dough… You goes about yer bidness, now. Be nize!”
A Pasadena bar openly defied Gov. Greg Abbott’s order for all bars to remain closed due to skyrocketing COVID-19 cases by hosting a “Texas Bars Fight Back Rally” this weekend.
Good.
Like I mentioned the other day. Our county now has a mask order. I went to a bar last night. People would walk in with a mask, sit down and take it off and leave it off the rest of the night. The bartender told me that everyone needs a drink in front of them at all times, because you’re allowed to have it off when “eating or drinking.” The whole thing is the biggest joke. The people who care are staying home anyways.
As it should be.

New York and New Jersey are also asking visitors from several states from the Carolinas to California to quarantine themselves for two weeks.
That’s more than “several states” unless you count flyover country as one state.
The local news said that there is now a two kilobuck fine in NY for not quarantining. And that there is going to be a “crackdown” (somehow) on people bypassing the “papers please” kiosk at the airport.
If I could find a lawyer ahead of time, I would actually be interested in being a test case for this.

Corey Booker and Elizabeth Warren are going to fix farming
The agricultural industry has an unusual structure: Virtually every node in the industry is highly concentrated around a few megaproducers. That’s true for seeds, for pesticides, for machines, for production. And concentration has been increasing, and fast. In 1980, 34 percent of pigs were slaughtered by the four largest meatpacking companies. By 2015, that had nearly doubled, to 66 percent.
But the food is still grown, and the animals still raised, on family farms. These farms are, in theory, independent, but in practice, they bear the risks of independence without the expected freedoms. The megaproducers they buy from and sell to have all the leverage; farmers are left with little choice save to accept the onerous, binding contracts they’re offered. As the Center for American Progress puts it, “growing corporate power has left relatively small farms and ranches vulnerable to exploitation at the hands of the oligopolies with which they do business.”
——-
In December of 2019, while campaigning in Iowa, Booker unveiled the Farm System Reform Act. It’s sweeping legislation, but at its core it does four things:
Imposes an immediate moratorium on the construction of new CAFOs and phases out the largest existing CAFOs by 2040
Imposes the liabilities and costs of pollutions, accidents, and disasters on the agricultural conglomerates that control the market rather than on the independent farmers who contract with them
Creates a $100 billion fund to help farmers who are currently running CAFOs transition to other agricultural operations
Strengthens the existing Packers and Stockyards Act to prohibit a range of contract terms and structures that let huge meat buyers put farmers in a race for the bottom while denying them political and legal recourse
——-
The question is what Americans really want, and how easy it will be for them to get it. There is a deep ambivalence in our relationship to the food that ends up on our plates: We want food from small farms, where workers and animals are treated well, where the land is respected, and we want it all to be incredibly cheap and absurdly plentiful.
The average American consumed 222 pounds of red meat and poultry in 2018, according to the USDA. Right now, big agribusiness producers try to ease consumer consciences through misdirection: Their packaging and advertising emphasize small farms, their ag-gag laws and contract provisions choke off the flow of actual information, the massive scale and mechanization of their processes hold down prices, and their political contributions repel real oversight.
“The tilt in America in the last 30 years of policy has been toward consumerism,” Khanna says. “We will do everything possible to lower prices. We won’t care about jobs, real wages, or the environment. My argument is that we ought to care enough about farmers [having] a decent livelihood, about environmental consequences, about consequences to communities, so even if this means there’s a slight increase in the price of meat, that’s worth it.”
Blah blah blah evil capitalists have wrecked farming.
To be honest, there is undoubtedly a lot wrong with “industrial” farming, and consolidation hasn’t helped. But I have zero confidence in the qualifications or ability of Warren and Booker to design a better system.
Now do online advertising. Or video hosting. Or…
Warren and Booker will be co-sponsoring the Lysenko Act…
Those stupid fucks. Maybe if property taxes weren’t so confiscatory and death taxes so ridiculous, this wouldn’t be happening.
Nah, it must be capitalism’s fault.
Assholes.
That too.
The fundamental problems are the artificially low interest rates and to a somewhat lesser extent, over-regulation. Same as it is in every industry.
When Wall Street can borrow money at super low rates with abandon, it incentivizes consolidation and artificially inflates the paper worth of the billionaire class while fucking over the small savers and asset holders like farmers.
Low rates…plus high property and death taxes. But mostly the taxes.
Nah, farming is simple you dig a hole, you put a seed in, you put dirt on top, add water, up comes the corn.
Sweet fucking Jesus, did they ever tie themselves in knots in the analysis portion of that fact check.
Maybe try Massie’s PRIME act, fuckos.
We want food from small farms, where workers and animals are treated well, where the land is respected, and we want it all to be incredibly cheap and absurdly plentiful.
You know what solves that contradiction? The free market.
Just like with any good/fast/cheap quandry.
We want food from small farms, where workers and animals are treated well, where the land is respected, and we want it all to be incredibly cheap and absurdly plentiful.
Then you want less food and more starvation, you stupid asshole.
We want food…
What you want doesn’t mean shit, not to me, not to anyone else and certainly not to the cold, heartless universe.
My Mother worked for one of those evil seed supply companies (not Monsanto, the other big one). It was insane how much regulation there is over seeds. Never underestimate how much compliance costs and bureaucracy has forced out the family farmer. Consolidation has a lot to do with these regulatory costs.
Grr, don’t get me started on the patented seed business and the ability to sue for “IP infringement” when said seeds spread naturally.
Their idea of farming is akin to what Chaz tried. Be better, dumbass.
Sounds like they want to make food more expensive.
So the word consumerism apparently means:
Having a wide spectrum of affordable food choices, with high quality and reliable supply.
and the speaker regards that as bad.
and some cake chasing retard believes this person deserves an audience?
Fuckin Cake Chasers.
It would not surprise me that somewhere in that bill is a clause “encouraging” small farms to form collectives, thus increasing their efficiency and bargaining power.
I thought the Antifa crowd had already done that back in CHAZ/CHOP or whatever their little Seattle state experiment? You just drop some top soil on the ground/grass, then stick in some plants and watch burritos or pizza bloom or something…
It was a shocking scene on Sunday at Chuters Dance Hall & Saloon in Pasadena; a dance floor full of patrons – many not wearing masks – danced to a live band as the alcohol flowed, breaking several COVID-19 state health protocols.

Abbott said in TV interviews he regretted not closing down bars again sooner, adding they are major sources of spread for the deadly disease.
“If I could go back and redo anything, it probably would have been to slow down the opening of bars,” Abbott previously told KVIA. “People go to bars to get close and to drink and to socialize, and that’s the kind of thing that stokes the spread of the coronavirus.”
We can’t have the serfs fraternizing. They might get some crazy idea about self-ownership.

What do you mean “nothing meaningful”? Snyder is changing the name of the Redskins and some inanimate objects got torn down. If that’s not meaningful, I don’t know what is. I mean, sure, some people got murdered, there were billions of dollars in property damage in cities across America, rioters and looters took over sections of Seattle. But those statues came down, so it was all worth it!

This was a shrieking panic because of course it was.
This morning though, the NPR affiliate was reporting that the victim has been nothing but a vicious vandal/harasser/general bad guy for the last two years according to the Guyanese neighborhood he lives in, according to interviews that the NPRista were doing. They were much more upset that it took the cops this long to drag the “victim” off. And that the only Guyanese member of the city council is taking the white cop’s side.

Disciplined use of face coverings, social distancing and handwashing can shut down the pandemic that continues to strengthen across the nation, said Robert Redfield, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Masks, he said at a press conference Tuesday in North Carolina, are our “major” defense against the spread of the virus. He also said that President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence should wear masks to set an example.
“If all of us would put on a face covering now for the next four weeks to six weeks, we could drive this epidemic to the ground in this country,” he said.
Sure, Bob. And if we haven’t killed off the virus in six weeks, we’ll just keep wearing the masks in perpetuity. Because you’re not wrong, you just were a little off on the time frame.
How would wearing masks “drive this epidemic to the ground”? If his theory is right, it’ll just pop back up again later.

Like most people here I look at politics as the choice between more freedom versus less. But it’s becoming impossible to notice the racial aspect of what’s going on – the prosecutor who drops all charges against looters who participated in deadly riots, but is going after a white couple who blocked the mob from destroying their home is just the most blatant sign of the two-tier system we now live in.
Ideological fanatics in the 20th Century had no problems throwing various forms of racism in with their crazy socialist agendas. Is anything in this article not true?
Our De Facto Antiwhite Apartheid
Like most people here I look at politics as the choice between more freedom versus less – an optimist, I see
Yeah. My choices appear to be “less freedom” and “a lot less freedom.”
Considering that a not-insignificant number of the rioters let off the hook were white I think it’s more goodthink vs. badthink than purely racial. True that part of being a goodthinker is believing in the “white privilege” nonsense so that adds a racial aspect to it, but as long as you say the right incantations and perform the proper rituals, you’ll be let off the hook regardless of your color.
Yeah you have to remember, when the Left says “white” they mean “white and non leftist”. Bill Clinton, Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, and every other lily white commie SOB are never considered part of “white supremacy”.
How would wearing masks “drive this epidemic to the ground”?
The same way wearing garlic around your neck keeps you safe from vampires.

America really shit the bed on this stuff.
As if electing Senile Joe will bring it to an end. Rewarding behavior ensures you get more of that behavior.

November – either the blue states that broke themselves will expect to get paid off by Joe – or they go fucking nuts when Trump is reelected. Either way, no reason to keep it going past that point.
The amount of people still for this is horrifying. States are seriously talking about clamping down again and people are cheering them on. It’s terrifying.
Fertility rate: ‘Jaw-dropping’ global crash in children being born
https://www.bbc.com/news/health-53409521
I blame capitalism. And no fault divorce. Or something
HORMONZ IN THE WATER!!!!!!
It’s turning the millennials
gaytrans!Jaw-dropping? That trend is as older than me. I was expecting something surprising.
It’s hard (though technically not impossible) to impregnate someone from 6 feet away.
Not if she lies back and opens wide, while you’ve been pumpin’ it for half an hour.
The original story was laughed at here already but here’s some updating and people pointing out that the motto of the NYT is
All the News that Fits, We Print.
But of course….
I don’t wish her ill, personally, but why the fuck hasn’t Ginsberg resigned from the goddam Supreme Court?
It’s absurd to see somebody that frail and ill clinging so desperately to power. And for blatantly politically partisan reasons.
What’s the correct perspective here? I’m always intrigued to read judgment calls on Glibs where someone is found to be enjoying too much freedom, employing too much speech, or when a Constitutional power is being exercised.
When your guy is on the bench, what criteria would you advise he use to decide when he’s too frail and ill to no longer further your preferences?
I’d have a little more faith if the impeachment power was used on the judiciary more frequently.
That’s a question for Tom Brady.

Such as?
Well, the whole “furthering [one’s] preferences” is part of the problem. It defeats the purpose of having a non-elected branch of government if that branch is just doing whatever they think is popular. Popularity is measured by elections not crystal balls. It’s not their job to be popular, it’s their job to apply the law. Ginsberg and the other 8 should resign because they can’t do their jobs regardless of their health, but of course no one appointed to replace them will likely do the job any better. The office has too much power and too little accountability.
Personal opinion: With 9 seats, SCOTUS terms should last 18 years. Every odd year a new one is appointed, so every President would get to nominate 2 in a 4 year term. No second term for SCOTUS. If someone dies/quits early, the President would get a bonus appointment to fill the rest of their term.
Clearly better than a “for life” appointment. 18 years with no 2nd term provides them with the same protection from politics as a life term does.
Much better than what we have.
I think the “protection from politics” argument for lifetime appointments should be dead, because it quite obviously hasn’t achieved its purpose. The court is obviously wholly political.
She doesn’t need to be in good health, she just needs to be strong enough to sign at the bottom of the opinion the very bright proggie clerk writes.
Meh, she is within her rights and making a logical choice from her perspective. If it were Thomas and Hillary were president I’d be keeping a vigil for him to last the term.
Hell, Sandra Day O’Connor is still alive but chose to retire from the court in 2006. She knew when she had reached her limit and set politics aside to leave.
I do. I hope that hateful bitch dies in great pain (Raich) and homeless (Kelo).
Shut up, Jim.
Acosta said, “I’ve never seen a president turn the Rose Garden into a campaign rally the way President Trump did in the last — more than an hour. This is obviously the campaign rally he wanted to have in New Hampshire that his campaign wasn’t able to have last weekend. He instead decided to have it here in the rose garden. You can just go through line by line, section by section of what the president had to say here in almost the same fashion we do with the campaign rallies to debunk, you know, the myths, the lies, the stretching of the truth and so on. That is what took place here in the Rose Garden.”
You and NPCNN know all bout this type of thing.

If nuclear power had taken off in the 1970s, the average person might never even have heard of “global warming”
https://twitter.com/TheEconomist/status/1279801228860575745
where would the graft in that be? But I do remember how optimistic some 60s sf was about how the future will be all the energy you need from nuclear power.
And it was the same leftist watermelon fuckers caterwauling about global warming, I mean climate change, who opposed nuclear power at every turn.
IIRC, statistically, approximately 0.5 people died of cancer from the radiation release from TMI.
Maybe 1 did, maybe none. Possibly even 2 if their luck was bad.
Literally, stress from worrying about the accident killed more than that.
Yep, now look into radiation released by coal plants.
I don’t have to, I have known the numbers for 30 years, it is much higher. They don’t have the strict requirements that Nuke plants do.
Don’t forget, my degree is in Nuke Engineering.

Thomas Sowell: Biden Win Maybe ‘Point Of No Return’ For U.S.; Claims Of ‘Systemic Racism’ Nazi-Like Propaganda
“Well, I must say, even though I’m regarded as pessimistic, I was never pessimistic enough to think that things would degenerate to the point where they are now where adult human beings are talking about getting rid of the police, where they’re talking about reducing the number of police, reducing the resources put into police work at a time when murder rates have been skyrocketing over what they were just a year ago in 2019,” Sowell responded.
“I never dreamed we’d come to this point,” Sowell continued. “It just seems such utter madness, and what is frightening is how many people in responsible positions are caving in to every demand that is made, repeating any kind of nonsense that you’re supposed to repeat.”
“I do believe that we may well be, we may well reach a point of no return. I hope that of course, that will never happen. But there is such a thing as a point of no return,” Sowell said. “The Roman Empire overcame many problems in its long history, but eventually it reached the point where it simply could no longer continue on, and much of that was from within, not just the Barbarians attacking from outside.”
“talking about getting rid of the police, where they’re talking about reducing the number of police, reducing the resources put into police work at a time when murder rates have been skyrocketing”
Libertarians are fucking chopped liver I guess.
But just the messaging is an incoherent mess. One day he talks like a socialist, the next he’s a populist America First. And can’t even convey either in any lucid manner.
I refuse to believe Americans don’t see this. Even the low IQ ones. That’s how blatant it is.
Here’s the one that disturbed me the most: Joe Biden Vows ‘End to the Era of Shareholder Capitalism’
Whoever is handling the old guy let AOC and Bernie write his economic platform, and it’s pure communism.
This morning there was some story about how the banks are evil/stupid/need to be investigated for paying dividends to their shareholders, when the should be hoarding that cash for the next phase of the lockdown instead.
That’s where you are wrong, comrade. It doesn’t go far enough.
Sanders said Biden’s proposals are “not only a significant step forward, but are going to win widespread support from the progressive community.” …
Sanders continued, “But I think it is very hard for anybody to seriously look at these proposals, whether it is on health care, whether it’s on the environment or climate change, whether it’s on education, whether it’s in the economy, and not to see that, if these proposals were to be implemented, Joe Biden would be the most progressive president since FDR. It’s a significant step forward, but, in truth, it’s not all that I would like.”
All I ask is that, as the useful idiots are rounded up, lined against the wall and shot – would somebody please record Sander’s last reactions (facial and/or verbal) in digital as he comes to realize that everything he has done was just a vehicle for those who will actually rule and his corpse will simply rot in a ditch somewhere.
I’d like to apologize for my comments yesterday about the Ford Bronco’s appearance, because i looked last night at the replies and some may have been upset.
If there are any crack addicts in the audience, I didn’t mean to offend you.
Apology accepted
*hits pipe*
Are people still getting addicted to that? It seems so ’80s. Maybe it’s retro now?
I’d assume there’s still crack addiction. Unless Hunter Biden is clean now.
What’s old is new.
I can’t seem to find your comments, but I like the look of the new Bronco. Even the Sport is decent looking.
It actually looks like a modern 60’s Bronco, no crack needed.
If the new Bronco had sex with a Renault.
Lol, that is comically retarded.
That car looks like it has buck teeth and needs glasses.
It’s ugly and the stylists dressed it funny.
Who would have thought that Mask Theory would become a thing during this pandemic?
It’s amazing how a stupid measure like this backed by some (perhaps tenuous) evidence regarding its effectiveness is being embraced by so many people.
A rational society thus concludes. If there’s no empirical evidence but some evidence, then I will adjust and behave accordingly. If someone asks I wear it because, say, they have co-morbidities, I respectfully can consent. Or not.
The only option here is encourage it (although that often becomes bullying) but not mandate it. And the reasons for that are too numerous for me to bring up here because I gotta go the mechanic.

SJWednesday: Enacted Labor Theory of Value
“The reason it’s upsetting is because alt-right people know this about good well-intentioned White folks, and they exploit this weakness by disseminating false information, conspiracy theories, and racist lies.”
Well when you’re position is “we don’t educate you”, don’t be surprised when you find out that people learn about you from your enemies.
Go back to the “we waz Kangz!” please.
“Listen to us!!!”
“Stop asking us to educate you!!!”
Well, pick one or the other.
I think it’s just “Just do what we say and don’t ask questions.”
Yes, it’s a socialization thing wherein you are taught the importance of a) having conversations and b) making room in the conversation for the other person to demonstrate their expertise/competence. By asking someone a question you are giving them a chance to “show off” and be correct about something. You are giving them a chance to establish themselves as a valuable and reliable source.
I suppose that I shouldn’t be surprised at this coming from a group that think “conversation” means “stand there while I scream at you,” but JFC, I write an astrology column for a glibertarian onlinethingy and I have enough social awareness to see what’s going on. Maybe there is something to the idea that autism is the norm among the yoots.
^this.
And astrology is still bunk.
I’m sure you meant “Astrology… I’ll be in my bunk.”

It’s not as ugly as a Nissan.
As someone who has exclusively bought Nissans for the last several years, I wholeheartedly agree.
But it’s a different kind of ugly. Nissans are “plain” ugly. The Bronco, IMO, is “neon tie-dye t-shirt with Wham! on it and acid-wash jean shorts” ugly.
But enough about my high school…..
So you are saying it is a return to the Reagan years?

I don’t think this is ugly.

SJWednesday: I’m Rubber And You’re Glue, It Bounces Off Me And Sticks To You
I’m gonna rise above debating the so-called alt-right and call them chodes instead.
Because I’m a serious person.
I don’t think its been 5 years since i last saw the word chode used.
I don’t know when I first noticed that idea permeating the left. The idea that reality is objectively on their side and it is wrong to even debate it.
Jon Stewart famously said reality has a liberal bias. But at the same time social justice warriors were beginning to say it is not my job to educate you in response to people questioning there policy objectives.
Then, back during the hands up don’t shoot era of BLM, you began hearing the phrase now is not the time for you to speak, now is the time for you to support us and listen.
On the second run through with the BLM crowd, this has become the official position everywhere. NPR has told me that it is my job to shut up and support whatever BLM says. NBC has told me the same thing. So has the New York Times.
Then they came up with the label anti-racist. They began abandoning the color blind Society some 20 years ago. But sometime over the last decade it became racist to even suggest such a thing. Now you are a racist if you are not an anti-racist. And apparently being an anti-racist means acknowledging that white people are inherently evil and stained with racism.
I don’t know how you even discuss anything with that. When it is their official position that you are not allowed to speak you are only allowed to cheer them on, and only people of color are allowed to speak because being white is prima facie evidence of inherited guilt, what is there to discuss? They have immunized themselves against having to listen to reason or even moral arguments that were offered up by giants like Martin Luther King jr.
There is only one logical endpoint to the trend.
We will see serious political violence before this is over.
Gawd I hope so. The alternative is worse.
I agree with the sentiment behind this statement, if not the hope for violence.
But I’m worried that it is a pipe dream. I just don’t see enough people willing to fight back. When faced with a large number of motivated people, it seems that the human thing to do is to shut up and go along with it. My training is an American citizen goes against this, but my observation of the behavior of humans in large groups disagrees.
There have been so many times when a small group of insurgents has used violence against the citizenry to obtain power that I have to accept that this works. I don’t understand how people and turn on their government because an Insurgent group is blowing up people in the marketplace and then install the people who blow up people in the marketplace as their new government. It makes absolutely no sense to me, but it has happened enough times that I must acknowledge that it is a reality for the human response.
There may come a tipping point when “white flight” is no longer an option. You gotta punch the bully eventually.
It may be Seattle that is the proverbial canary.
When the city government refuses to protect the private property and lives of its residents, and then raises taxes on those residents while exempting the city workers from those tax increases, that’s getting very close to creating a permanent ruling class at a local level.
We’ll see what happens next.
I don’t know what the tipping point might be, or who will actually be targeted for violence and by who, but I think we are already at a point where we have political violence – that’s what BLM/antifa are all about. When does it get “serious”? Who says it isn’t already?
What it is, at this point, is one-sided with very few exceptions, and all or nearly all of the exceptions look like self-defense (so, not really political). The real question is, when does the counter-insurgency begin, and will it be the government doing its job, or citizens who are fed up with being targeted for violence in what will be at some level a failed state taking matters into their own hands.
Of course, there is always the possibility that history will look back on 2020 as the year that the hard left moved its takeover of the US out of the genteel institutions, and into the streets, on its way to “revolutionizing” and taking over the government. There may be no counterinsurgency at all, merely a bloated and lazy society conceding to rule by murderous lunatics.
Leftism is a cult. Refusal to allow freedom of speech and open debate is what is dangerous.
anti-racist
In practice this just means anti-white. So I am going to continue to be not racist.
It’s actually worse than you think Black Lives Matters actually encourages ignorance as a point of pride. And says so.
https://youtu.be/QT_mTr0WD14?t=1803
Ok… so bear with me here for a second. The only reason we know that the person is wrong is because you asserted that they were a cult. You then use that to classify anyone you disagree with as a cult, and not worth listening to. If a cult is so convincing that intelliegent people can be convinced by it, maybe you need a better argument than “Don’t listen to them or the thought contagion will get you!”.
She’s projecting. It is she that is in a cult. And the cult has forbidden her to speak to wrongthinkers.
Yup. People in cults will never ever debate or discuss with outsiders.
When your argument is “do not debate the other side because they will convert you,” you have admitted they are in the right.
Yeah, I mean no religion emphasis debate and arguing about things.

Fuck it it I poured some o that Tempelton 6yo Rye over some ice cause it is warm-ish and it aint good enough for neat drinking. I might drop some Peychaud’s bitter in I might not. I am bored depressed so i t is drink o clock
it is still fun how all Romanian stores include all US whiskey in the bourbon category. So I have to go to the bourbon tab in an online store to find rye
The ryes are in the bourbon section at every liquor store I frequent as well. Probably because most distillers who make a rye also make a bourbon.
Here the American (and hte lone example of the Irish) ryes are in their own section, but the Canadian ones are in the Canadian ones arei nthe Canadian section.
Is the Canadian Whiskey section just a garbage can?
/not a fan of Canadian whiskey
Crown is a perfectly cromulent tipple.
In Virginia ABC stores (sigh), there’s just a whiskey section for everything but scotch. Rye, bourbon, Canadian, Irish….it’s all in the same section.
It appears critical thinking is in short supply as evidenced by so many getting their information from social media and not doing due diligence (the people who voted for Trump but are now incredibly disgusted, for example).
So precious.
Like i said above, if you are unwilling to talk to people when they ask you a question, and treat them like retards, they will still seek info on their questions, and be open to people who don’t like you describing you to them. It is just a bad strategy on their end to hold this condecending attitude of “I don’t have to explain my pain to you”. And i think the reason they take the tact is because they know they aren’t convincing to normies, and it’s more effective to try to brow beat normies with: “It’s racial oppression to have to explain my oppression”.
Particularly when it is a wealthy New York writer who lives in Manhattan lecturing some hayseed who is unemployed in Appalachian mining country about how they are the racist oppressor who attained their position and power through racism and the New York writer who makes money off of proclaiming their victimhood is being violently oppressed.
If you open up to an actual debate, then you have to actually respond to the cuts and thrusts of the other side.
Never interrupt the enemy when he is making a mistake.
I know, I know, but i’m i like thinking about strategy, and always like thinking through why a person picks the strategy they pick. One person i can write off as being mistaken. An entire organization sticking to a bad strategy, indicates to me that they have some alternate weak point that they are covering with by using a weak strategy.
In other words, they are so weak in the arguments that they have to resort to acting offended by questions to keep people from getting the answers that they have.
But i might be reading too much into it.
critical thinking means whatever makes my side look good
In their efforts to PC-sanitize the novel, they appear to have completely changed the point of it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNCUBPkkg5w
I was worried about that…
It is just a bad strategy on their end to hold this condecending attitude of “I don’t have to explain my pain to you”.
I find it amusing to see people whose entire world is constructed on a foundation of argument-by-unsupported-assertion crying about a lack of critical thinking in others.
Welcome to critical theory and postmodernism.
This is the poison that has invaded academia.
It has led to an insane world of grievance culture where the most powerful departments in Academia are holy invented philosophical fantasies constructed entirely within their own subculture with their own vocabulary and their own definition of reason.
Do used to be that old saw about arguing about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. Well, we have arrived at a world where the people calling the shots in a large chunk of society are the ones who won the argument about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.
Just a little ironic, don’t ya think?

A trillion here, a trillion there…
Former Vice President Joe Biden released a sprawling plan Tuesday to revamp American infrastructure and energy to both curb climate change and spur economic growth.
The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee’s proposal aims to achieve carbon-free power generation by 2035. As the coronavirus pandemic leaves the U.S. mired in an economic crisis, Biden said he will set out to create “millions” of union jobs that pay at least $15 per hour as the U.S. overhauls its roads, bridges, trains, auto industry and broadband system.
The plan, which comes days after a joint task force formed by the Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders campaigns outlined a climate change agenda, sets out a more ambitious approach to developing clean energy than the Biden campaign did during the Democratic primary. It calls for $2 trillion in spending over four years, more than the $1.7 trillion the campaign previously proposed to spend over a decade.
“Even if we weren’t facing a pandemic and an economic crisis, we should be making these investments anyway,” Biden said of the plan during remarks in Delaware. He called the investments “critical” for the economy and public health.
The Democratic presidential hopeful also aims to use the federal government to reverse years of Trump administration efforts to ease environmental rules, including by setting up an environmental and climate justice division within the Justice Department. The campaign said it would create tools to better monitor and root out pollution that disproportionately leaves communities of color with chronic health issues.
We’ll keep shovelling money into the boiler until the Justice Express goes supersonic.
That wouldn’t be used to extract political donations out of corporations, nosirree…
Biden will, for sure, reimpose the “Justice Department as leftist fundraiser” portion of Obamas legacy. Anyone who things it is crazy that Obama would use the Justice department to go after the people in the incoming admin, were not paying attention to what he had done with the Justice Department.
Justice, Education, State, the military, the IC, the IRS, the BLM, really what part of the federal government didn’t get subverted to serve Obama and the establishment?
I’d like to say I don’t know who the fuck this guy is, but Joe Biden he is not. Then again, 1) he’s only half there if that much and 2) he is a politician after all, his entire past can be rewritten on a whim to become whatever he wants it to be to win.
Fucking unruly hicks
The Gallatin City-County Board of Health was set to vote on Tuesday on whether to require masks in public but postponed the meeting after more than 100 people showed up and refused to listen from another room, in violation of statewide restrictions on large gatherings.
The meeting is now set for 7 a.m. Friday.
“The board really wanted to hear from the public today and tried every way they could to do that,” said health officer Matt Kelley after the meeting. “…It’s sad that we couldn’t do that because some people are more interested in hostility. … It makes me sad when we can’t listen to each other.”
——-
…the proposed rule says that those who do not wear a mask could be charged with a misdemeanor.
“We will be working with law enforcement to enforce the rule if the board decides to enact it,” Kelley said. “The rule allows for criminal penalties, and we’ll have to work with Brian (Gootkin) on that. But, if this passes, we’ll focus on educating the community and helping businesses get PPE (personal protective equipment).”
Why won’t they just do what I tell them? I know what’s best.
” It makes me sad when we can’t listen to each other.”

The lion’s share of the NFL money comes from the TV deal, the licensing, the merchandising, etc.
Ticket sales aren’t nothing, but you have to remember running a gameday stadium experience has costs, its not just pure profit.
Every team gets over 250 million a year from the league, that’s GTD money. Even if you don’t make another penny from stadium name rights, ticket sales, etc, that’s probably 30 or 40 million a year in pure profit after paying player, coach, and staff salaries.
If not for double standards, why they’d have no standards at all.

Doesn’t matter how many tests they run on the guys in that span they can’t do anything for 14 days. One guy gets a false positive during the regular season every guy on the 25 man has to quarantine for 14 days. It’s insanity they won’t grant them a waiver.
I heard the covid tests can test positive for other coronavirus strains (you know the common cold that is mutating constantly…). If that’s true I don’t see the value in any of this. (I mean, I didn’t already, but that would make me even more cynical.)
I heard that too.
Philadelphia is saying no in person attendance allowed for NFL games in 2020.
Dear Season Ticket Holder:
Your refund, in full, is in the mail.

Fifteen days after they announced the cancellation of their 2020 season, I’m still waiting to hear what options our local minor league baseball team is going to offer to us season ticket holders.
Ah, summer. Sun, surf, sand. And flip-flops.

This is the guy with an approval rating north of 70%?
70% Approved by the TNC: Toxicrat National Committee
The other 30% want a racial component added to the double-standard.
HM probably knows the correct term for “people that evaluate a person’s righteousness entirely on their speaking style.” Because honestly, that’s the main difference between Cuomo and Trump.
I call them moral reprobates, but maybe there is a more technical term.
I think Mojeaux has the correct phrasing.
Wait, what? What was my phrasing? I forgot.
I think it’s spelled with an “e” at the end.
“Cunte” FTW. I love archaic spellings.
GT gets it.
Oh! *headdesk*
His core competencies appear to be:
1) He’s not Trump
2) He likes PowerPoint
Honestly, is it any wonder he has won over the entire passive-aggressive office worker voting bloc?
More unruly mobs.
With 3 you have to play zone.
My cat does the same thing.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
That’s not how this works.
Joe Biden’s aides want President Trump to pay back taxpayers for campaigning from the White House’s Rose Garden.
Biden spokeswoman Kate Bedingfield said Trump’s speech Tuesday sounded more like a politician who sees “his re-election slipping away” than that of a president. She added he seemed frustrated he can’t host large, boisterous rallies because of his “botched response” to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The American taxpayer should be reimbursed for the abuse of funds this spectacle represented,” Bedingfield wrote in a statement.
No president ever said anything political from behind the presidential podium. This is just more destruction of norms by Drumpfler. It is known.
Right after Biden and Obama payback the public for all the campaign trips they made in Air Force One and Two.
hard to imagine anyone here defending the Hatch Act in any regard
If it is named after that jackass Orrin Hatch, then thats all i need to know.

re Ghislane Maxwell.
(Aside: I really like the name “Ghislane”.)
In all those movies where there’s a secret cabal, nobody knows about it except a select few people. “If the public knew… [insert bad thing happening here].”
Well, this cabal, everybody knows about. In fact, it’s ALMOST a joke. And nobody can do anything about it.
“Secret” cabal. We’re just so much dirt on the ground.
Aside: I really like the name “Ghislane” – but do you pronounce it right? it is not jizz lane
Few English speakers seem able to pronounce it. Ghee-len.
I also like the name Genevieve pr. jhon-vee-EV.
I guess I just like French names that begin with G.
Guy?
Thank you, Niles Crane.
Mmmm, I should have specified FEMALE French names that begin with G.
I like neither Guy nor Gaston.
“Secret” cabal. We’re just so much dirt on the ground.
Something something shocked. SHOCKED, i say.
“Body of millionaire tech entrepreneur, 33, is found decapitated and dismembered next to electrical saw in his luxury Manhattan apartment after footage showed him sharing elevator with professional killer
Police believe they have surveillance footage of the suspect entering the building on Monday and then using the elevator.
Video reportedly shows the gloved suspect wearing a hat and mask covering his face, and carrying a bag. He waited to enter the elevator with Saleh.
‘The perp had a suitcase. He was very professional,’ one police source told the Daily News.
Sources told the New York Post that as the pair rode up to the seventh floor apartment together, Saleh appeared puzzled.
No sooner had he stepped out of the elevator – which opened directly into his home – the attack began.”

Good thing he was wearing a mask.
Do professional killers usually cut up bodies and leave the pieces behind?
It costs extra I’m sure but, the customer gets what the customer wants.
It’s not unheard of. From the article, it sounds like the triggerman was interrupted mid-disposal. Probably panicked and bailed on the rest of the cleanup.
Never having lived in a NY apartment, I don’t see how an elevator can open directly into someone’s home. Even if you had to punch a code to open the door, anyone in the elevator can apparently push their way directly into your home?
No more shopping at Wal-Mart
From the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, our focus and priority has been and continues to be on the health and safety of our associates, members and customers.
As the number of confirmed cases has spiked in communities across the country recently, so too have the number and types of face covering mandates being implemented. Currently about 65 percent of our more than 5,000 stores and clubs are located in areas where there is some form of government mandate on face coverings. To help bring consistency across stores and clubs, we will require all shoppers to wear a face covering starting Monday, July 20. This will give us time to inform customers and members of the changes, post signage and train associates on the new protocols.
Their store; their rules.
But I can shop other places.
Yep. I will shop elsewhere.
I just decided to suck it up. The counties and cities have mandated it. There’s no getting around it. I’ve got bigger things to worry about.
Yes.
I suspect the recent correlative studies that say mask wearing reduces spread are mostly nonsense because states that implemented them did so in the midst of peak covid.
But we will see. In my own state of Texas we’ve had mask wearing implemented and cases are going up at the same rate as ever. But we will see after a few more weeks.
but enough about Bari Weiss
There are some fundamental mistakes in this article, but he articulates several points about Weiss that exhaust me and have consistently led me to just turn off Fifth Column pretty much every time she’s on.
Not incidentally, hypocrisy is also a central criticism of Weiss. She denounces cancel culture, builds up cancel culture opponents as heroes and martyrs, and tries to cancel people whose expressions she deems antisemitic. And her definition of antisemitic includes things that others would classify as criticism of Israeli government policy rather than bigotry against Jews.
Philosopher Judith Butler . . . while reviewing Weiss’s book How to Fight Anti-Semitism. . . discusses Weiss’s emphasis on “opposition to identity politics,” snarkily adding “which presumably excludes Jewish identity politics.”
I’m anti-antisemitism! but I’m tired of Weiss
Because a person’s home and a place of employment are identical and the same rules governing behavior apply to each. Obviously.
right
and I also wasn’t there and do not presume to judge that incident
but I will say that in my private life I encourage opposing views presented in good faith; if someone shuts down a private conversation because the opponent doesn’t argue in good faith, I wouldn’t criticize that choice.
Good Faith might be a worthy Glib topic some time, especially in these times when buzz words like “science” are thought to be debate enders instead of the question provokers they are.
“her definition of antisemitic includes things that others would classify as criticism of Israeli government policy rather than bigotry against Jews.”
The problem is that Israel get’s criticized for things that no other country gets criticized for.
If Luxembourg was lobbing rockets into France, sponsoring suicide bombers, raiding across the border and murdering French citizens, no one would criticize the French for retaliating militarily, for building walls, for spying on the leaders of Luxembourg, for refusing to negotiate with them until they stopped waging war against France.

But she has to work like a dog.
And since this should be a dead thread momentarily, I’ll say it: bitch had it coming.
