  1. Lol anyone claiming the sock? Woke up to 5 negs and I’m mcnulty-ing over here “wtf did I do?” No clue who this poster is or how I got dragged into all this but the board needs a cleansing...
  2. any backstory to this one? that fall looks painful as fuck.
  3. For the record, Are you claiming immigrants are bringing disease? Link or evidence for the”non-geniuses” and non-racists, please.
  4. And he degraded the rank. Come on. He doesn’t understand tariffs, he shits on POWs, on gold star families, on take your pick of our institutions. At some point we need to accuse the soldier and take back the rank because we believe in ideals and not the people who temporarily degrade them.
  5. Fair points. So then what’s the next option? Just not pay enough to keep the job? Doesn’t seem sustainable (although your critiques sound reasonable and her option doesn’t seem that sustainable either). Raise rates like Australia/nz? How’s that working for them? Not trying to be a dick, just not sure what our options are but I’d hope the politicians take the lesser of two evils, since it seems like there isn’t a good answer either way.
  6. She does make honest errors, she is human. And she has been called out on it by some posters here. But all I’m saying is, we’d have a stronger country if everyone who supported trump was made to defend all the dumbshittery he says. Every. Time. Let all the posters that defend him take their licks after each economically retarded tweet he makes. Same here, if she says some dumb shit, take her to task. For instance yesterday, I think she has a good ideas and I’d listen to some of them on living wages for service industry people but to go support that idea at the one gentrified bar in the middle of 40-50 Latino bars/restaurants is dumb as fuck. Like approaching sell out, coconut level. She lost points with me for that. I’ll try to check back when she posts stuff but in the end, this thread only exists bc Fox News is obsessed with her. And since I’m not all that invested in what she says bc her power is limited, this isn’t really one of the threads I check that much. Hell, my district is adjacent to hers and her views don’t really affect my area. So with that in mind, I think the first few posters were right way back in the beginning of the thread that it’s pretty ridiculous that a freshman rep from nyc has any traction on a UT board. To focus on her and not all the dumb shit much more powerful and UT/Texas relevant politicians say is kinda crazy.
  7. we might have different definitions of "obsession" if this isn't obsession, then what is? and i know this is "but trump" but i'm sorry, no conservative or foxnews can EVER say a politician might have misspoken. ever. that ship is sailed forever after they haven't called out trump for every stupid shit and lie he says multiple times a day.
  8. You disagree that Fox is obsessed with her? Holy shit, what reality do you live in?
  9. Oh I agree opening it would be tough and on the lottery. but still personally disappointed since it sounded like it was open to the people. If it’s closed then don’t announce, just have it be a regular rich folk thing and leak the bartending video later to tmz.
  10. Well I was wrong on the area. But lol at that bar! Lyfted and ubered many times past it, always thought it looked out of place as fuck. Literally looks like the only white bar in an area that has Ecuadorians, Colombians, Peruvians, etc drinking and eating until 5am most nights of the week. Lame.
  11. The dm just got back to us, she said she doesn’t think it is open to the public. Hopefully that isn’t the last word On it, but I think that’d be shitty since it is a fundraiser and she claims to be of the people. So as of now, looks like only rich people will see her serving? Which is a bad optic for a couple reasons but whatever. Thinking of where it’ll be, I’m guessing that since it isn’t open to the public she won’t have the balls or doubts rich folk will head to Roosevelt/Northern/Corona since the decor and neighborhoods are a little too ethnic there. And because most of ASTORIA isn’t her district and there isn’t much east of Steinway, I’d wager it’ll be off ditmars since it’s close to the airport with nice gentrified bars or sunnyside/woodside but I don’t know the bars there real well. Damn would have been fun to at least see the scene but not a fan of rich folk only invites. Gonna call in a sec so crossing fingers that they change their mind.
  12. Agh, it’s frustrating they are releasing last minute. I mean I get it but shit, I really want to go Check it all out. Turns out I know (by way of the gf) her district manager (I think that’s her title) so contacting her since when I met her was a wedding and she was a really fun, charming person. Also gonna call the Jackson heights office in a bit to see if they’ll either say where or at least tell me when/how they’ll announce the location.
  13. They are legit stories that are being pursued and not hoaxes. Don’t think anything I say can be different from what’s out there but ok. Russia “hoax” isn’t a hoax. We can agree to disagree on the extent of their impact but it’s not a hoax. Words have meaning. Didnt click the mocking video but just because he might do it to other people doesn’t mean he isn’t also mocking the reporter. And sure, there is full malice or idiocy being applied to everything trump says. I agree. But it isn’t like that occurred in a vacuum. Trump puts out hate and ignorance, so he gets it in return. I’m okay with that. Was the cnn journo bad at her job? Maybe, Probably, but I think journalists from across the spectrum are just bad at their jobs. From national to local. And yes it is embarrassing.

  15. The golfing pic is about 80lbs ago, right?
  16. She’s throwing drinks this Friday, I’m gonna try to go. I’ll post if it’s not at a bar too deep into queens. I’m hoping for woodside, Astoria area.
  17. if after this: trump lies you still (and this was getting on to almost a year old now!) believe trump over your own ears, reality, the rest of the world, then ..well we don't have much to discuss and there is nothing I can say to convince you of the truth. good luck, have a good night.
  18. Ah, thanks. Clicked but thought it meant there were kids hiding in the stalls Bert style.
  19. supposedly he didn't. somewhere on one of the two threads there was a link of dany saying she read it first, saw him on the plane, and didn't tell him so that she could see his reaction when they do the table read (or something like that).
  20. So did the shit stain sit in a chair or do the right thing and sit on a cushion?... wait just clicked link. God what’s a Fucking embarrassment . Fuck you trumpkins.
  21. Cool, I’ll try to flesh it out a bit more. i’m saying you have multiple posts belittling certain stories that you claim are hoaxes. So first off, in looking at the stories it takes real mental gymnastics to see them rising to your “hoax” viewpoint since every claim is only selecting certain facts, ignoring others, and you’d be hard pressed to qualify them as hoaxes. secondly, when there is an honest to god hoax, aka bullshit story, you not only bought it without further critical analyzation, you posted a new thread on it, and defended it multiple times! In fact, I haven’t looked at that thread in a while, but did you ever admit you were wrong and eat crow in it? So to label it a simple singular “misstatement” is brazenly disingenuous. So to be clear what I’m saying is that much like the pizza gate crowd that thinks there is a child smuggling ring run out of pizza parlor but does nothing about child concentration camps, that freaks out with no gestapo in bastropo but says jack shit when troops are ordered to the border for a fake crisis, I think it is very funny that of course you posted links to dubious stories that are fanciful interpretations of legitimate concerns. in fact, I think that it is such an incongruous and distorted viewpoint of reality that it rises to the level of mockumentary sarcasm, so I’ll ask again, are you trying to be Colbert? Is it all an act? Are you going for a faux conservative that really is pointing out the insanity of trump supporting mental midget charlatans? If so, the execution is lacking but “A” for effort. I’m sorry, do you know what a hoax is? -The president joked (repeatedly! That’s not ok, you can’t say fire in a theater either) about extra terms and is refusing lawful subpoenas. You could reasonably argue the crisis label is hyperbole but then what would you call it? Definitely not a hoax. And as a country I’d hope we could all agree that we definitely cannot allow any presidential actions to ever again jokingly go down that road. Full stop, it should never be okay. - so now you know more about the legal system than hundreds of AGs who said obstruction could be charged? How very “circumstantial” of you.....You are a goddamn Learned Hand, Cardozo, and Thurgood all rolled into one! That doesn’t qualify as a hoax and I think you know that deep down. -that’s debatable but again spin isn’t a hoax and it is troubling how the AG is holding water for the shit stain in chief. - haven’t heard that one but who knows, I’ll leave that for now. If it is like your other assertions it’s is way to premature to label it a hoax.
  22. Lulz, absolutely perfect. Of course you would be the one to rant about hoaxes and dishonest journalism: Whoops! be honest, you’re acting right? This is all a bit?
