  1. What a great play call that Vandy was in OT
  2. For the world sake, I don’t wanna have America become a Nazi Germany with nukes. I want to stop us from turning into that more than anything. You know, a country built on white supremacy and hatred, using the government to politically prosecute political enemies, disabling free elections, and using our military domestically and internationally to fuck over everyone who doesn’t agree with us. The only way I can see is not turning into that is a massive shift in the many people who seem to be heading that way with no problem. I don’t want a child to starve. But if someone said, the poor will always be with us. I’ve stated my case, and I’m sticking with it, but I can certainly understand why people don’t agree with me. Because you don’t know how truly fucking hard it was to get me to agree with me.
  3. This story contains more concentrated abuse of the rule of law and Putin Hitler style use of the government legal machine to prosecute political enemies than any story so far. As always, Trump goes with incompetents and beauty contestants to go after his political enemies. The person appointed federal prosecutor for the eastern district of Virginia has zero prosecutorial experience, and was a defense insurance lawyer when she quit going to beauty pageants.. As a sidenote, she was almost certainly illegally appointed, and in another sideshow, it appears Pam Bondy backdated an appointment to try to make it legal. There is so much shit going on that is it is unfortunate that no one is seeing this story, as it encapsulates the utter unfitness of office for Trump and his entire criminal administration. Like I always say, if they weren’t all incompetent, none of us would have a chance. But because the prime rule is to do what Donald says, they all march into the blades of the giant fan to lose cases and eventually law licenses. I’m sure there was a good podcast on this, but I don’t know how to find it with the volume of YouTube and another videos and podcast that pop up every day click on the link to the 207 page motion to dismiss the indictment and exhibits, because it is a shit pie thrown in the face of Trump that is fresher and more odious than anything I’ve seen recently. When Bondy and Hannigan were ordered by a federal judge to produce any evidence of adversarial prosecution against James, team Trump fired a person who had gathered a bunch of it, and then file a motion saying ‘notice we aren’t gonna give it to you judge’ For you non-lawyers and non-federal practitioners, that’s not really a good idea to tell a federal judge. I have not seen a ”fuck your order” response that has proved successful so far. Because Team Bondi said that there was no evidence of adversarial prosecution, and so no need to follow federal court orders, James filed this motion, setting forth why they should dismiss the indictment. Interestingly, and rather humorously, James points out that by Bondi saying they weren’t gonna turn it over - they had just admitted the existence of requested discovery supporting that the prosecution was adversarial. I think this is a very important matter that more people should know about. Probably only the Surly lawyer Cabal will take a look, but it is definitely worth looking at. The filing has huge amounts of exhibits attached, so it is worth looking at just to see what James easily collected to show what Trump was doing. In a perfect world, I’d love to see the court allow James attorneys to first depose Trump and Bondy and Hannigan. I seriously doubt that could ever happen, but I would still love to see that on the nightly news with Trump begging the Supreme Court to save him from having to testify, as everyone talks about all the exhibits in that filing.

  4. yes. But the key point is that it’s not entirely unbelievable. I mean, how do we know a bunch of those air traffic controllers aren’t DEI hires?
  5. We’re in a war for the soul of America, Jimmy. we are in a war for the institutions of America who have almost failed, we are in a war to try to maintain the rule of law. We are in a war to try to stand for democracy and to protect people like Ukraine, which is been our country’s positionfor so long that that is one of the main reasons why we are respected. Making sure that the people who voted and encouraged and whooped and hollered in favor of the upcoming depression suffer no pain is perhaps a more Christian or kind secular response. And that kindness can lead to the further destruction of the country, the further eradication of the rule in law. As it is, the White House is now Biff’s Pleasure Palace home of grift and hatred - and people fly flags in its honor. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE FIGHTING, NOT PEOPLE WHO CAN’T FIND ENOUGH FOOD BECAUSE OF THOSE ELECTION DECISIONS. When you are in a war, things are different. Sometimes you drop atomic bombs so that 1,000,000 American servicemen won’t die in a Japan homeland invasion. Many of us are saying that the country needs to suffer like Hiroshima, so like Japan, coming out of an authoritarian military controlled culture and government, a new democracy respecting rights and the rule of law can come out of the ashes. I have been vocal about wanting a great depression, because MAGAs need to be on the same soup line with liberals before they all realize that we need unions and we all need healthcare and job security and retirement FOR EVERYONE. We knew that in the 1930s. We realized all the money going to the oligarch’s was obscene and anti-American. We apparently forgot that, so now blue-collar workers cheer for Elon and Trump and his billionaire buddies while they destroy the country, the economy and the lives of people. Ending that mindset is more important than some people starving. If Jimmy could magically put food in everyone’s pantry, we would continue charging ahead on our MAGA path, undeterred by cruelty and harm. Here is what I say. “They should’ve filled their bank accounts and pantries to overflowing before they decorated their porches with the corpse of my beloved American institutions..”
  6. The GOP is the home of family values in Christianity. They have poisoned the brains of Americans with that crap for almost 40 years. Why do you question their authenticity? Surely those wonderful people will take care of their own. Not. My. Problem.
  7. Trump keeps insisting that everyone is doing better since he’s president and the cost of food is going down. He was interviewed by a reporter at the White House after Trump said that the Walmart Thanksgiving meal basket was now 25% less than last year. The reporter advised him that the basket doesn’t contain any of the stuff that were in the previous years basket, and they’ve left out things like marshmallows for the sweet potatoes, eliminated the pecan pie, and took out other parts of a Thanksgiving dinner while they lowered the price As you would expect, he had a toddler tantrum asked her who she worked for and when she said NBC announced NBC that’s all fake news. Don’t listen to her everything she says as a lie. Because Cletus and Mabel, who have purchased the Walmart Thanksgiving basket for years, have an idea what’s in there Donald. And dammit, Cletus always liked the pecan pie. The best chance Democrats have is that they are all idiots, and other than the political message that the brown and black skin others are coming for you, and the trans people want to sex change your children, when they step off those two talking points they have nothing else to say. More importantly, the nation is now fixated on the economy. And by economy, I do not mean the stock market, I mean how much it costs to buy the things everyone needs. The GOP keeps insisting that everything is going well and prices are not going up. I for one, thank them for their magnificent gift to the Democrats. Trump’s coalition always contained a huge amount of people who simply weren’t paying attention. Many of them are paying attention now.

    I laughed at spectral Melania every time.
  9. Brisket, all due respect, but you seem to just gloss over the fact that she was well-aware she was brown at the exact time when she knocked on the door. Seems like there is a willfulness element in there.

  12. just dropped in to say I’m about to quit reading the Ukraine thread because I can’t get through a page without going to Twitter platform and it’s too frustrating to visit the same thread six times before I can get to the end of the page. If the problem is aggressive Twitter embedding, maybe we could ask everybody to just post screenshots, and anyone that desperate to see the original article in X can find the particular post in the app ios18 is current theme.
  13. Nothing matters. The simulation is broken. Neandertoes Marge is complementing Nancy Pelosi on national TV. The Gators are the reigning NCAA basketball champions. Dogs are living with cats and voting across species lines.
