Hey!

i was on a super quick, like 55 min flight today so I just watched the two curb your enthusiasm episodes they had on flight and they were first episodes of season 1.

I finally get where your name is from! Gil Bang! The dinner party and the no shoes and the whole thing!

Yep.  "Porno Gil" was the episode.

I do volunteer work for Beto's campaign (surprise!). I get called a "libtard" on a regular basis and get a lot of responses that are just "#MAGA!" and the like, but I also hear a lot of "who is Beto?"

Photography fail.  Should've taken that pic from facing the front of the statue.  The artist gave her some rude cleavage.  I guarantee that's what Beto's eyes are fixated on.  That's one more way he comes across as the guy who can relate to the everyman.  The guy likes Whataburger, rock music, and titties.

Trying to change the 14th Amendment by EO is insane and my votes today were a rebuke against that attempt. Our Constitution means more and is worth fighting to the death for. Trying to stop illegals by changing one of the bedrock foundations of American Constitutional law through EO and even suggesting it should be grounds for removal and arrest as an enemy on the republic.

Hannity is worried about jail time. He will say whatever he has to to keep trump loving republicans in charge. He knows what’s coming. Makes it more likely he will get off if the republicans somehow manage to stay in charge. 

Oh and you people who love the repubs tax cut in Texas should take a look at how its gonna affect your property tax deduction, mortgage, etc. and other items you used to itemize on your returns. You may not be getting as much of a break as you think, if anything at all. Many will probably just qualify for the standard deduction. But at least your bank and broker will make out so its all good, right?

NYT: River Oaks feeling the Blue Wave

 

 

Quote

“I’m not hearing anything helpful at all,” said Gene DiGirolamo, a moderate Republican state legislator from Bucks County, outside Philadelphia, where Republicans are struggling to hold on to a House seat and hold back Democratic gains in state races.

Besides the obvious ethical (I'll defer tolawyers on the legal implications) issues surrounding infiltration of your opponent's campaign, is this even a good negative ad?

If your idea of digging up dirt on your opponent is infiltrating their campaign and showing that campaign staffers used campaign funds on their own initiative - like you show them straight up brainstorming it and wrestling with the ethics, so it obviously didn't come from the top and didn't have anything to do with OmG mIlLiOnS oF iLlEgAl VoTeS!!!!111 - to buy some food for refugees or help get them transportation, then you are probably a shit stain of a human being.

Also, anyone that would be really outraged about some staffers going out and buying food and first aid kits for migrants was probably not voting for Beto anyway. This is designed to rile up the base. To a neutral observer what is more unethical - feeding those in need or infiltrating your opponent's campaign? Which candidate does that actually say more about? How much does this move the needle?

The people involved are obviously exposed to the consequences of violating campaign finance law, so they will be punished as the law sees fit if the case it pursued. It likely won't be because this is political theater. But again, how exactly does this make Beto look bad outside of the people that were already Cruz locks?

The tweaks to the child tax credit and its phase out  makes it a plus in my tax column. A little bit of smart planning around the standard deduction wrt property taxes and charitable giving is required. But it's a net positive. I don't know a banker or a broker.

So some campaign workers want to help some immigrant/refugees by buying food and clothes.  I would think if it really did violate a law, they would have stated the law and how it was broken, or how they thought it was broken.    

Anybody have anything on Hannity going after Duncan Hunter?   I did a search of Hannity's site for "duncan hunter indicted" and got no results.  Imagine that.

You have to wonder how long that infiltrator has been inside to finally come up with one semi juicy thing.   Will be interesting to see where that leads, the infiltration part of it.

Working the Poll hotline all day tomorrow in Austin. (PS. voted on Tuesday and wife voted today, so add +2 to Beto)

Voter protection?  I’m signed up for a shift on Election Day.  Post or PM your experience, if you could, so I know what to expect.

i guess they'll declare them illegal in the womb

What a completely spineless piece of shit. Anyone who supports him is anti-Texan. You support a Canadian who slurps the balls of a yankee con man who has to pay millions of dollars per hour to fuck a halfway decent- looking pornstar. Pretty sure that's textbook definition of a cuck. Texas doesn't want your kind

Funny.

Was hanging out with a bunch of Cruz voters today in Austin and they were telling me how uninformed and annoying the GOTV volunteers they've encountered are (which is probably just their bias showing). Many of them troll/keep texting them and leading them on for hours or full days for fun it sounds like.

Anyways, is Oak Hill a Cruz bastion? Saw more Cruz signs than Beto only in that 'hood. Saw Beto literally everywhere else en masse.

Geez, you gotta give it to him. The man has had a master plan since he was probably like 10 and has stayed the course. That's pretty interesting.

My interests and goals were more Kavanaugh-esque. I'm a modest man who was interested in playing devil's triangles and booping.
