That would be the second best possible outcome.

I was thinking more along these lines.

I think this is different. Trump is unrestrained this time. The election mandate + no more elections + getting away with everything = do whatever in the fuck he wants. He's emboldened. These cabinet picks are a huge indicator that there are no bounds.

Why are y'all not wanting all of these appointees to make it? I want them all to make it. The more dogshit the pick, the better. The one ray of hope I have is that this administration fucks things up so magnificently that even the dumbest of the dumb won't vote for their fuckin' asses for the next 10 years. Dems can't and won't do anything right to win elections. Our best chance for sanity to return is for a ginormous clusterfuck of epic proportions for the next four years.

I would say Omarion or whatever her name was, but you know....

Is she the WWE chick? Has to be, right?

We were scheduled to spend Thanksgiving with my very large extended family on my mother's side. They are small-town, South Texas, blue collar people for the most part. They are 99% Trumpers. As are my parents, who are single issue voters (abortion). I don't discuss politics with them and find it pretty easy to avoid the topic if it comes up. Plus, I'm pretty sure they all think that I think like they do. We have decided to just do Thanksgiving with just our immediate family - me, my wife and our three boys. We rented a cabin on the river in the Hill Country and we're going to spend the week being together, fishing, canoeing, exploring, seeing the sights. We're not doing this to punish my relatives, at all. This is about us and doing what we need to do not to feel totally depressed and isolated. But, there is a small part of me that hopes that some of them notice we're gone and understand why and regret it.

There is no longer any doubt - this is a bit. These picks are for entertainment value only. It turns out Trump actually does have a sense of humor.

Add it to the list of reasons why people were wrong to vote for Trump.

The best people.

Just now?

Now let's salt this bitch away.

The families have $1.4 billion to play with. From my read, none of them care about the money and they don't expect to get pennies on the dollar anyway. So they can bid up to $1.4 billion plus whatever actual cash The Onion is kicking in, which has to be something so that the other creditors can get paid something.

I don't know what specific irregularity they pointed to or what evidence they brought forward, but it was at least enough to cast some doubt on the process. I can tell you this, the bankruptcy bar - bankruptcy judges, trustees and lawyers - run a pretty tight ship. It sounds to me like there is some misunderstanding, or a pretend misunderstanding by the Alex Jones camp, about the auction rules the judge set. The trustee attempted to follow them, but may have misinterpreted those rules if the Jones people are right. It probably don't make a shit because they would just do the auction over again, unless there was some serious malfeasance by the trustee and/or the winning bidders. Short of that, the same group would win it.
