  1. Yep. The working class cheering on billionaires as they suck the lifeblood out of the country, all so they can grab the satisfaction of being mean to Mexican landscaping crews, is amazing to watch. I never imagined anything that stupid, but here we are.
  2. Flying out of LAX tomorrow. Wife and I are flying SWA to Vegas, daughter is on AA to London. We’ve flown in and out of there before. It’s big and a bit of a pain, so we just allow time.
  3. He was making the “tu quoque” logical fallacy, in one of its most classic forms. It’s like the people who deflect our criticism of the cops by arguing “why aren’t you criticizing the criminals???” Well, because the criminals aren’t supposed to be the good guys…cops are. The criminals don’t work for me, and aren’t paid by my tax dollars…the cops are. So, yeah…maybe hold Israel, purportedly a democratic, law-abiding state, with a military heavily funded by my neighbors and me, to a slightly higher standard than, say, the criminal, Russian-backed Assad regime in Syria. That would be the intellectually honest, non-logically fallacious thing to do.
  4. Yeah, when either of the kiddos has to move via an airport (so far, LHR and FRA), we count on a cab or Uber, as they are schlepping literally all of their stuff, so public transport is a challenge. It’s part of the moving cost.
  5. No, it is plainly illegal. The Supreme Court will straighten this right out. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Yes, racial profiling is 100% legal. And more than that; it is a per se good faith belief by law enforcement and the courts that any proof of citizenship or legal status by a brown person is fake/forged, and they should be deported immediately anyway. Sure, you could try to present alternate proof, after challenging the government holding you via a writ of habeas corpus…but yeah, those are gone too. Being brown is a deportable offense, and you have no legal recourse. Comprende, you dirty spics? Why don’t yall just save us all some time and “self-deport,” and don’t give me that “but I’m an American, where would I deport myself to?” bullshit.
  6. You could have w just typed your last two words. These people are incapable of any logic or reasoning. Truly, it is as beyond them as flapping their arms and flying.
  7. Me too. Genuinely and truly. I thought it was a fake satire account.
  8. True. And a perfect encapsulation of this state’s priorities that are fucked up to the point of being pure evil.
  9. Excellent summary of how and why it matters…and how we’re totally fucked.
  10. Understand that when accusing a Republican of association with coke-dealing Latina prostitutes, the only damning part of that is “Latina.” Oh, and from what I understand, it wasn’t the prostitute part of their resume that attracted this particular patron’s attention.
  11. Duh. Thats because the target is not “illegals.” It is “dirty Hispanics.” All of us. The admin is beginning its campaign of extermination (that’s what you do with “vermin,” that’s why they repeatedly use that term) against all Hispanics in the US. We are going to have to shoot our way out of this one. Y’all know that, right? Oh, and don’t worry about the lost farm labor. They will be replaced by the massive population of now-imprisoned Hispanics, who will be forced to pick produce for convict wages (see that out-clause in the 13th Amendment). That’s the openly stated plan. We are literally going to Make Slavery Great Again.
  12. Yeah….you’re just now getting that memo?
  13. I love that he’s afraid of something that hasn’t ever happened and never will happen here (people being thrown in a gulag for owning a bible) instead of…people being thrown in a gulag because they are a disfavored ethnicity (law enforcement is openly admitting that “being Hispanic” is their sole basis for stopping and arresting people for immigration violations). These fucksticks LOVE gulags and concentration camps. They are literally selling merch for them.

    Only good wishes for BV and his recovery…but it’s not like his absence is going to cost us many goals. I’m curious to see more from Taylor, he’s looked good in limited time, and we desperately need a spark up there.
  15. Yeah…love the “recent discoveries” angle. Him fucking an aide was a centerpiece of his impeachment and related lawsuit, from YEARS ago. It’s all about political expediency. But, you know, the party of Christian family values. There is no less Christian, less pro-family group on earth than the GQP, yet here we are.
  16. There’s no emergency like a “we need to do everything we can to overly skew this state’s Republican delegation” emergency. Fuck them kids.
  17. Nope. To redistricting. See, this wouldn’t have happened if we’d eliminated all democratic Congress people from Texas.
  18. Man, quotes the whole sequence, but this is the answer. Start asking questions now. If you don’t know the answer, “we’re looking into it” is a fine answer. But you start NOW. Competent failure analysis is the #1 way to avoid future failures. There isn’t even a close second. Failure analysis, in detail, asking hard questions, is non-negotiable. But let’s be honest, this is what Texas Fight is lobbying for: avoid full accountability, because his “team” is the only one in the crosshairs (because they’re the team that’s been in charge of literally everything in Texas for over a generation). Avoiding responsibility is a religious rite for them, and they won’t be denied that holy privilege. Thankfully, we still have SOME actual press that says “fuck your feelings” and will dog and get some truth: Texas Tribune, etc. Texas Fight doesn’t want that. He’ll rage against it for as long and hard as he can. But this one is too big to duck. But don’t worry, even when we find that the failures are because of total political and cultural rot, nothing will change. The party in charge will GAIN votes, and we’ll get more of the same, for at least another generation.
  19. So….there are some non-updated stories about attacks on CBP facilities in the past few days in McAllen and Alvarado. Like, armed assaults on them. There are the initial stories, then….nothing. No names, no examination of the circumstances, nada. WTF?
  20. Because….and this is importantly….the dead Texans are what tells us the policies are working.
  21. All the intercessional prayer bullshit is just that: bullshit. I prayed for my kid to survive, and he did. You prayed for your kid to survive, and she was swept away to her death. I guess I’m a better pray-er than you. Or God loves me more than you. Or god works in mysterious ways. Or any number of utter fucking cop outs. If god decided to “call all these kids home,” fuck your god. I choose anyone who fights against such a “god,” so “team Satan” for me. If god says “Brisket’s prayer was better, so his kid lives, but you didn’t have enough prayer warriors on your side, so your kid dies,” fuck that god all the way to hell. The “god” created by modern Christianity is a genuinely evil construct, and the world’s greatest enabler of human evil.
  22. Thankfully, we won’t have to worry about such scum infecting our great country any more. CLOSE THE BORDER!!! We are seeing a formerly functioning society self-immolate. Life-saving equipment, there for the common good, turned down - rejected with authority - because “Biden and all government is evil.” We will commit literal suicide before choosing ANYTHING that might be of interest and help to society as a whole, because that’s EVIL COMMUNISTSOCIALISM. I’m well past the tearing my hair out stage. This is mass insanity.
  23. The most vocal…and also completely in charge of the Texas and US government. That part’s really important.
  24. That is such a cop out and such shitty theology. If all that matters is the great beyond - and that’s EXACTLY the structure that theology builds - then it excuses all manner of evil here, and absolves you of all responsibility to build “the kingdom here on earth.” When someone suffers and dies, a response of “it’s for the best, they’re in a better place” enables more suffering. I hate that image Derka posted: it excuses all manner of evil. I hate the “nothing matters, because what really matters is our heavenly reward” because it allows you to check out on your duty to give yourself in service of your fellow man.
  25. Mo-Ranch is hosting the TXSAR crew. They have functioning places to sleep on site, which are in short supply. I’m glad they are able to help.
