Chief of biscuits is a slimy old grifter

What does involuntary celibacy have to do with my question?

Why would Biden being old and capable be less important that his just being old?

Again, Pope Francis is old and enfeebled, but that hasn’t stopped him from becoming perhaps the most consequential pontiff since JohnXXIII. Biden’s mental acuity and cognition are fine. His experience on the world stage well positions him for such a time as this.

This guy obviously was not aware that Chief Justice Roberts declared this kind of stuff no longer happens. https://www.yahoo.com/news/white-dad-stops-daughter-shaking-210553499.html A white dad rushed the stage and pushed the Black superintendent out of the way so he couldn’t shake his daughter’s hand during her high school graduation yelling ‘I don’t want her touching him.’ The shocking incident took place Friday at Baraboo High School in Wisconsin - the same school that drew national headlines in 2018 when a photo emergeddepicting several current and former students doing the Nazi salute. Graduation footage from last week shows the man, whose identity has not been reported to protect his daughter, coming onto the stage as his daughter shook school officials’ hands. As she approached Superintendent Rainey Briggs, who is Black and was hired in 2021, the man jumped on stage and grabbed the superintendent by his arm and dragged him away from his daughter. “That’s my daughter,” the man says, according to footage of the ceremony. “You better get up off me man,” Briggs can be heard saying as the two went off camera.

While it might be impolitic to actually say what a lot of people are thinking, I think honesty demands it. Most, if not all of the black people I know are accepting of interracial relationships. What tends to set people are those black conservative politicians, who while living and working outside of the black cultural footprint, have the temerity to lecture black people about the lack of family cohesion. It’s interesting to note that most of the biscuits who fit this description marry or date exclusively outside of the race. I’ve often wondered why that is. I think it’s deeper than acknowledging that people can connect on many levels unrelated to race and culture but the numbers themselves require examination. Byron Donald’s, Clearence Thomas, Mia Long, Candace Owens, Tim Scott, Daniel Cameron, Thomas Sowell, Larry Elder, Wesley Hunt, John James, Harris Faulkner, Hershel Walker, the list goes on. Ben Carson is the notable exception

It must be painful to be as dumb as coach Tuberville.

So true. The new Dems are bad asses.

Well, we’re not called Howdy Arabia for nothing: https://www.yahoo.com/news/nightmare-texas-couple-navigating-miscarriage-121839082.html

Jasmine is coming on strong, but it’s a joy to watch Swalwell drag Gym Jordan for points

Swalwell is the baddest GOP ass dragger in the House.

True and thanks. Sometimes when referring to butter biscuits, we use the abbreviated term with the understanding that the butter part is understood. I’ve known of that biscuit since he tried to hem up a friend of mine in a Project Veritas sting in Dallas several years ago.

The black guy in this shot is a biscuit from Garland.

If this unthinkable happens and felon Trump wins, sadly most, if not all of those countries will create some diplomatic exemption that will allow felon Trump to enter.

Why is it weird?

We have more uniformed DPD officers patrolling our campus on Sundays than most entertainment venues have on weekends. It’s kinda disorienting and comforting at the same time.

Now it seems Rafael Cruz’s favorite news source is in trouble: https://www.thedailybeast.com/feds-accuse-far-right-newspaper-epoch-times-of-being-a-money-laundering-operation The chief financial officer of The Epoch Times has been indicted for his alleged participation in a $67 million money laundering scheme that involves the far-right newspaper. In an indictment that was unsealed by the Southern District of New York on Monday, Bill Guan was charged with one count of conspiring to commit money laundering and two counts of bank fraud. Each count carries at least a 20-year prison sentence. While the SDNY noted that the charges “do not relate to the Media Company’s newsgathering activities,” the indictment makes it clear that Guan’s alleged scheme “benefited a multinational media company” and included a “Make Money Online (MMO)” team that helped pad The Epoch Times’ bottom line. “In or about 2020, the Money Laundering Scheme caused tens of millions of illicit dollars to be transferred into the Media Entities’ bank accounts. In fact, that year, the Media Company’s internal financial accounting reflected an increased annual revenue over the previous year of approximately 410 percent—from approximately $15 million to approximately $62 million,” the indictment reads. “A significant portion of this increase was attributable to the Media Company’s Foreign Office, including the MMO Team, which was managed by WEIDONG GUAN, a/k/a ‘Bill Guan,’ the defendant.”

It will be a damn shame if she tanks what is to me the second most critical of all of his cases. The fact that it is a very real possibility is beyond words.

Gene Getz was a very popular evangelical pastor/author in the 80’s and 90’s. In his best selling book, The Measure of a Man, he tells his evangelical readers the best way to get a true reading or insight into a person is to understand what the people at home (those who know him best) say and think about him. Well… https://www.quora.com/What-was-Donald-Trump-s-reputation-in-New-York-before-he-became-President?top_ans=237672537

Don’t you mean the Senate failed to remove him from office after he was impeached twice? As regards the so called “Russia Hoax”, in this political climate, it is always important to interrupt the lie: https://rollcall.com/2020/08/18/senate-intelligence-committee-russian-interference-2016-election-report/ The Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday released the final report on its investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, finding numerous contacts between the Trump campaign and Moscow posed a “grave” counterintelligence threat. “We found irrefutable evidence of Russian meddling,” Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., acting chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said in a statement, directly refuting President Donald Trump’s repeated assertions that Russian interference was a “hoax” perpetrated by Democrats. The nearly 1,000-page report outlines the “breathtaking level of contacts between Trump officials and Russian government operatives that is a very real counterintelligence threat to our elections,” Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., the committee’s top Democrat, said in a statement. The bipartisan congressional report closes the panel’s three-year probe into the Kremlin-led operation to influence and interfere in the 2016 presidential election. The fifth and final report involved interviewing 200 witnesses and examining more than 1 million documents, the committee said.

Este.

When I was an undergraduate, I was friends with the student legal counsel. He told me a most interesting story that occurred while he was in law school at Ole Miss. It was doing the time that integration was roiling most of the South, that he decided to walk over and observe a campus protest against integration. As a self described liberal, he wanted to see for himself why these segregationists could be so hateful. As the crowd grew, so did the anger, which he called palpable. Then, suddenly, he said he went into some kind of a trance and found himself red faced, yelling obscenities and racial slurs with the crowd that surrounded him. He called it an out of body experience that he didn’t understand. He left the event confused and ashamed. I think about his experience sometimes when trying to make sense of how we can so easily lose our sense of self.

Hillary would have won but for Comey’s eleven day surprise. She got 3 million more votes than Trump. That kind of thing matters in every democracy but ours.

Have we ever seen the programming of Americans on this scale by one man ever before in our history? Even the number of people who are made uncomfortable by felon Trump’s manifold wickedness, they say and do nothing. I suspect that was very much the case in 30’s Germany as well. People with Ivy League pedigrees died in fidelity to a crazy man in Waco. The scale and scope of mental illness in this country is being reflected in our politics and it’s more than worrisome.

Recently I’ve been thinking a lot about why Biden is not up 30 points, but instead finds himself in a dead heat with felon Trump. Then it hit me. We’re witnessing a nationwide sustained manic breakdown the likes of which is normally confined to small groups or individuals. The last time history has recorded something on this scale was during 1930s Germany. Like David Koresh and Jim Jones before him, felon Trump has (for reasons I will never understand) been able to tap into the psyches of millions which has rendered them incapable of rational thought or the ability to think critically. The religious like fervor with which they pay obeisance to a man they know to be deeply flawed is like nothing we’ve seen in American presidential politics. I’ve said it many times in this forum. In order for felon Trump’s adherents to live with the mental and emotional dissonance that uncritical support of him engenders, they reject the knowing of facts and rely instead on what they believe because belief in this environment is invulnerable to disproof. Unless something changes and the fever breaks, the lessons of Waco, Guyana and 30’s Germany will go unheeded with the same disastrous results.
