  1. What in your mind should she have done to please the Palestinian Americans? Specifically. Condemn Israel completely? Promise to cut all aid? Had she done that would she have won?
  2. Meh, he’s your standard run of the mill apologist misconstruing actual critical scholarship to fit his particular theological view/agenda. Besting Billy Carson in a debate is the equivalent of high schooler beating a 2nd grader in one on one. For example: claiming that the great Isiah scroll (a Dead Sea scroll) is “word for word” identical to the Masorectic text. No actual scholar would make that claim (in reality well over half of the verses have variance between the two). Huff does it to make an apologetic theological point as to the infallibility and divine transmission of scripture. I.e. “Look how amazing it is that over hundreds and thousands of years that it hasn’t changed even one word!” And it worked, he got a “WOW!” out of Joe.
  3. This describes the non-profit that my wife works for to a tee. They work in education and public health. Every project has been shut down to scrub every mention of anything that could be construed to involve DEI. They received instructions to remove all pronouns from signatures, not to discuss any issues regarding DEI on company email, and to remove from their personal social media any reference to the company as their employer (along with a plea to please consider the effect on the company and their colleagues when they post on social media). They’ve furloughed those who have USAID related projects and placed everything else federally funded on hold (except to change all materials that may offend the new administration).
  4. My favorite part is when the “good” God murders all the innocent kids.
  5. The best part of this is that she straight up lies that she has a warrant and the homeowner calls her on it. If they had really had one they’d be busting the door down, not slinking away.
  6. Could you be anymore of a pussy? Just name one of your “plenty of examples”.
  7. Just dropped off a ballot in AZ. Had to walk through a phalanx of Trump supporters tailgating the parking with flags flying. Fucking sad and pathetic.
  8. He’ll make a mint off of this by hitting the grifter circuit claiming he was “cancelled”.
  9. This tracks with my decidedly unscientific visit to my small, very red hometown in the Kansas Meth Belt a couple of weeks ago. I was very surprised by the lack of enthusiasm for Trump compared to 4 and 8 years ago. He’ll win because of the inertia of life long republicans and the poisoning of the mind against Dems that Fox News has perpetuated in the dominant older population (anybody with ambition/ability leaves and doesn’t come back). Saw more Harris signs than I’ve ever seen for a Dem (including Obama).
  10. Anderson Cooper: “Thanks for joining us Charlamange, and now let’s turn to Scott Jennings. Scott, Donald Trump continues to question VP Harris’s ethnicity, how much do you think the ambiguity around her race is hurting her campaign and why do you think she continues to avoid presenting to voters a plan to deal with? Please take as much time as you need to answer by quoting today’s Republican talking points and I’ll be sure not to correct any falsehoods you may say.”
  11. Don’t forget farm subsidies. Farmers are the biggest welfare queens out there. (More than $30 billion per year).
  12. Multiple campaign events/rallies each day (primarily swing states) plus interviews. He was on Rich Eisen this week, Smartless the week before, the View next week
  13. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/sep/20/israeli-soldiers-filmed-pushing-bodies-of-palestinians-off-west-bank-roof Don’t worry, the IDF is investigating. I’m sure they’ll get to the bottom of it.
  14. This “undecided” women choosing Trump had a whole speech prepared.
  15. Jake Tapper just said he’s trying to “jerk store” his answers.
  16. Fuck Maggie Haberman, she’s complicit in the tragedy that is Trump
  17. Since your dropping knowledge I’ll jump in with my trip (Golf is #1 priority then Castles and Drinking/eating) and appreciate any recommendations: 1st week in September Day 1: arrive Edinburgh (Castle, Royal Mile, etc) Day 2: Pick up rental car, golf at Elie, explore East Neuk, Stay in AirBnB in St. Andrews. Day 3-5: Golf in St. Andrews (18 per Day) plus explore St. Andrews and Fife(Kingsbarns Distillery) Day 6: Stirling (Castle, William Wallace, Bannockburn) and move to Gullane AirBnB, Day 7: Golf at Gullane and possible soccer match (depending on upcoming draw) Day 8: Golf at North Berwick and Glenkitchie Distillery Day 9: Golf at Old Musselburgh and back to Edinburgh Day 10: Fly out I could drop a day of golf IF there was a day trip that was very worthwhile (highlands, Cairngorms) but it feels like I’d need to do a second trip to really do that justice. Thanks for any tips!
  18. After the Tories get destroyed next week they’ll welcome Farange and his band into the party, Rishi will get ousted/ bail to California with a year, and within 2 years Farange will up as the head of the Tories.
  19. Paul didn’t write Ephesians
  20. Yes, according to Israeli military and intelligence officials. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/28/world/middleeast/israel-hamas-weapons-rockets.html#:~:text=One Western military official said,10 Israeli soldiers in December.
  21. Yep, they already have enough signatures to put it (referendum) on the November ballot and will keep going. Should really help Gallegos and Biden x
