  1. Even Abbott should know that charity will never trump justice.
  2. I was expecting his announcement as the surprise pick to lead aggy as its new president.
  3. Hopefully, history will be fairer:
  4. True. It’s times like these that require seasoned, skilled diplomats who know what they’re doing, even in the midst of seemingly intractable problems
  5. In a just released statement, Bibi gives special thanks to Brandon for improving the terms of the pause and the fate of the hostages.
  6. If only every man, woman and child in that Walmart had a gun…peace would reign everywhere.
  7. Conservatives are all in on the if you can’t beat ‘em, cheat ‘em strategy for the long haul.
  8. Remember when voting rights security was something that received bipartisan support in the Congress? https://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/21/washington/21vote.html What the hell happened? https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/20/us/politics/voting-rights-act.html A federal appeals court moved on Monday to drastically weaken the Voting Rights Act, issuing a ruling that would effectively bar private citizens and civil rights groups from filing lawsuits under a central provision of the landmark civil rights law. The ruling, made by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, found that only the federal government could bring a legal challenge under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, a crucial part of the law that prohibits election or voting practices that discriminate against Americans based on race. The opinion is almost certain to be appealed to the Supreme Court. The court’s current conservative majority has issued several key decisions in recent years that have weakened the Voting Rights Act. But the justices have upheld the law in other instances, including in a June ruling that found Alabama had drawn a racially discriminatory congressional map.
  9. If Q’Elon doesn’t get his rage and need for vengeance under control, he’s gonna stroke out: https://www.reuters.com/legal/x-sues-media-matters-after-report-about-ads-next-antisemitic-content-2023-11-20/ Nov 20 (Reuters) - Social media company X on Monday sued media watchdog group Media Matters, alleging the organization defamed the platform after it published a report that said ads for major brands had appeared next to posts touting Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party. X, formerly Twitter, has faced growing outrage since Media Matters published the report on Thursday, which led IBM, Comcast and several other advertisers to pull ads from the platform in response.
  10. President Carter is probably humming a Sam and Dave oldie - Hold on I’m Comin’.
  11. I agree with those who believe the hope of any lasting peace in the region exists in a two state solution.
  12. That ol’ booger, Biden gets a lot done before he goes to bed at 6p.
  13. Breaking: Israel, Hamas reach tentative 5-day ceasefire deal for release of hostages: Report Hostages would be released in small batches, every 24 hours, in exchange for a pause in the ongoing ground operation of the Israeli army in Gaza, a news report said. https://www.indiatoday.in/world/story/israel-hamas-ceasefire-release-hostages-report-gaza-us-2464723-2023-11-19
  14. Q’Elon Musk is the clear winner: Musk agreed with a tweet that said Jewish people have been pushing “dialectical hatred” against whites, and later criticized the Anti-Defamation League.
  15. Musk apparently won’t be happy until crypto currency scams and the online Hitler store are the only advertisers left on X: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/11/16/elon-musk-calls-antisemitic-tweet-the-actual-truth.html Musk agreed with a tweet that said Jewish people have been pushing “dialectical hatred” against whites, and later criticized the Anti-Defamation League. “Notorious antisemites are celebrating what they see as Musk’s complete conversion to blatant expressions of Jew hatred,” said one hate crimes expert. “When we saw similar rants from Ye last October, anti-Jewish hate crime spiked across the country,” Musk leads half a dozen companies that collectively employ around 150,000 people worldwide, including SpaceX, Tesla, The Boring Co., Neuralink, X Corp. and his latest venture, xAI.

    Maybe this should go here: I’m confused. Regarding homosexuality, is Murfreesboro banning the noun or the verb? What if one’s hair or dress looks homosexual? https://newrepublic.com/post/176915/tennessee-town-ban-public-homosexuality A city in Tennessee is using a recently passed ordinance essentially prohibiting homosexuality in public to try to ban library books that might violate the new rules. Murfreesboro passed an ordinance in June banning “indecent behavior,” including “indecent exposure, public indecency, lewd behavior, nudity or sexual conduct.” As journalist Erin Reed first reported, this ordinance specifically mentions Section 21-72 of the city code. The city code states that sexual conduct includes homosexuality

  18. He’s the only non college graduate currently serving in the US Senate. You’re doin’ fine Oklahoma…
  19. This interloper acts like all of those resolutions reducing the pay of Biden cabinet members to $1 didn’t take skill and determination.
  20. O’Brien missed a perfect meme moment. He should’ve snickered at Mullin and told him to sit his silly as down.
  21. If one wants to see a complete media created fabrication, check out the hot takes on Dion to aggy. There’s no way he would get along with all of those bigoted billionaires whose self worth is tethered to the [mis]fortunes of aggy football.
  22. Agreed. I can’t imagine them making this move without already having their next stooge in place.
  23. Gaetz makes petty Betty look magnanimous.
