  1. I agree the continued politicization of the judiciary should have been a bigger story.
  2. Welcome to the deep state. Great time to be a public servant. To the post above in the antitrust case on call admission standards, part of broader effort to turn the antitrust laws--and laws in general--into political weapons.
  3. This guy's pathetic. Again, think about how he would handle a major crisis. Think about it.
  4. So dishonest...and he knows exactly what he's doing. Chew on they for a while.
  5. Never let a good recession threat go to waste, need every opportunity to ensure the transfer of wealth to the rich. These pieces of shit. https://www.realclearmarkets.com/articles/2019/08/29/to_keep_the_economy_growing_index_capital_gains_to_inflation_103886.html
  6. Just came here to post this. Here's the WaPo version. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/as-he-campaigns-for-president-joe-biden-tells-a-moving-but-false-war-story/2019/08/29/b5159676-c9aa-11e9-a1fe-ca46e8d573c0_story.html “He said, ‘Sir, I don’t want the damn thing!’ ” Biden said, his jaw clenched and his voice rising to a shout. “ ‘Do not pin it on me, Sir! Please, Sir. Do not do that! He died. He died!’ ” The room was silent. “This is the God’s truth,” Biden had said as he told the story. “My word as a Biden.” Except almost every detail in the story appears to be incorrect. Based on interviews with more than a dozen U.S. troops, their commanders and Biden campaign officials, it appears as though the former vice president has jumbled elements of at least three actual events into one story of bravery, compassion and regret that never happened. *** Biden absolutely cannot be the nominee. He is too flawed and his flaws make him a poor contrast to Trump.
  7. To be fair he's probably responsible for two of the top 5 all time great cons. (1) that he was a rich, successful businessman and (2) that he gives a shit about anyone but himself, including that he gives a shit about America. Remember who his enablers were.
  8. She's a great storyteller. And comparing her on the stump today versus some of what she did in the lead up to 2016, she's taken things to a new level. Every bit of her heart's in this and it shows.
  9. I'm sorry. It's hard parenting right now. But also I feel like the contrast of the awful man Trump is gives me confidence in what I'm teaching them. This can't be over soon enough. And we need to hold every single person who stood by him accountable for the damage they, not he, they have done.
  10. Yep, plenty of opportunities for former public officials without a shady corporate payoff for peddling their influenced they gained while supposedly serving the public. Some will argue that this would create some kind of chilling effect on talented people entering public service. If slightly more limited ability to cash-in after serving is a reason not to pursue public service, then you have no reason to be in a public office. This is not that hard.
  11. You know what will be a big fucking crowd? Elizabeth Warren's inauguration. Stay focused people.
  12. About time they got around to this. I had signed up for the information list over a year ago. Really excited to see what he comes up with. That prototype looks great. Anyone else interested in one of these? I've learned to cook on a WSM and want to get wood-burning offset for the backyard. I've flirted with the idea of building one but will probably end up doing this or a Klose. I'm in Northern Virginia so getting one of these up here is going to be an issue too.
  13. It seems like if Trump were so clearly compromised with clear evidence of it n the hands of multiple people, that someone would have leaked the tax returns by now. I'm slightly skeptical for that reason but then maybe everyone that has them knows they'll get some polonium tea if they leak. For sake of clarity, all republicans are traitors. Fuck these guys.

    SpaceX

    Incredible footage. Makes me think there's something to their idea of using rockets for routine passenger travel on Earth.
  15. Wait, so he was explicitly financially backed by,and indepted to Russians. How was then not in Muelleer's report? Are these loans still outstanding? Holy shit. If true, what more do you need? And as I've said repeatedly, every single person who has stood by him is a traitor and should be banished from public life.
  16. Eh, just think how bad it would be if they didn't rollback the net neutrality regulation to stimulate all that corporate profit, broadband investment. What a crock of shit. So much of our politics is about the individual versus the corporation. I want Liz fighting that fight for me.
  17. I'm sure he's already writing it but drafting bullshit takes time. Especially when you've got to step away from fucking hogs or whatever the hell it is they do in Arkansas.
  18. Nuking hurricanes, buying Greenland. Ladies and Gentlemen, the President of your United States! Jesus Fucking Christ.
  19. Not sure it this was Hugos point, but I think Hillary 2016 may have been a better candidate than Biden 2020 would be, and Hillary was a god awful candidate who lost to Trump. Biden cannot be the nominee.
  20. Setting up the blame Democrats narrative. Not going to work.
  21. She gets it. I love her. Need to pound home the moral clarity point. That will have broad appeal. An end corruption, bring moral clarity, structural change to save our democracy message wins by a landslide against Trump. She is the best candidate to deliver that message by far.
  22. Heres the point of Seth's thread: Worth reading the whole things. Sounds damning to me. The cover up if the Russian story still blows my mind. They've fully infiltrated our government.
