Please stop by tonight’s edition of the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally for an evening of political pontification over a pint. (And, um…maybe a bit of gloating!)
The Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally meets every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern (2409 10th Ave E, Seattle) starting at 8pm. You’ll find us on the back patio.
Chapters of Living Liberally are all over the place…if you can’t make it to the Seattle chapter, stop by another chapter near you.

Kevin McCarthy now: …Oops

Sometimes I get to comment, and sometimes I don’t. Depends on whether or not I’m being blocked.
Kevin McCarthy spews:
I told you all that I would make history as Speaker.
Roger Rabbit spews:
@5 When I get blocked, it depends on how many links I put in my comment. There seems to be a limit on links per comment.

@2 @3 There are no bigger dumbasses than Trump supporters. Regular Fox viewers are a close second.
Roger Rabbit spews:
I didn’t know tasers could rupture a kidney. I thought you had to kick someone in the gut to do that. And turning a face black and blue with handcuffs, well, I guess if the arrestee is black his face is already that color and the blue rubbed off a cop’s trousers. And charging him with possessing the gun found in someone else’s pocket is nothing short of imaginative. But it’s all good because another suspected drug dealer is off the streets.

Hi, we’re the new GOP and our only guiding principle is to be the biggest bunch of dicks you could possibly imagine. Like twirling mustache 1920s melodrama dicks.
That why our first order of business was telling Nancy Pelosi that her office would be re-keyed and she needed to be out by tomorrow. Yes, of course we know she’s in California for a funeral of some bitch named Dianne but we really can’t wait.
Because….we’re dicks.
It plays great to the ‘FUCK YOUR FEELINGS’ crowd we call our base and you woke pansy snowflake people with an ounce of common sense are just cucks.

Gag order?! I put the ball gag on the underage girls at Epstein’s place. What are you talking about, a ball gag? Can I get the cuffs with that? I’m into the flogging but not the cane.
Why can’t I threaten the lives and livelihoods of members of the court? I’m the greatest mind in history.
Say, did you hear the bit about the electric battery and the man eating shark?
There was this girl I met in Reykjavik. I think she was Latvian. She told me she wasn’t a Russian. What a night. Tied me up and put a dildo in my mouth and then pissed on my chest. Good thing there’s no video of that. I was gagged then too.

The victor will be someone Democrats actively aided and abetted. Jeffries’ statement today made clear that to defeat MAGA, Democrats were instructed to vote with Gaetz & Co.

@20
All that is whistling past the graveyard of the fact that the GOP is going to nominate a felon, rapist, tax cheat that will be running his campaign from a courtroom instead of rallies where people are hired to pretend to support him.
Think on your sins. Wisconsin, gone. Michigan, gone. Arizona, gone. Nevada, gone. Georgia, gone, Minnesota, gone, Pennsylvania, gone, Virginia, gone, Texas….going? Meanwhile y’all have to full court press Kansas (Kansas?) North Carolina and Ohio because the Supreme court fucked you and the kids ain’t having it.

Forbes published its annual rankings, which have Elon Musk in the top slot by a mile, just as Trump was in court in New York for a civil trial that accuses him of overstating his wealth for years.
>> That’s going to make him even more cranky. I hope he doesnt’ get on social media and make threatening posts. That would be awful. Just awful.

In case you ever wondered about the real reason Viktor Shokin was fired:
https://kyivindependent.com/ukraine-completes-investigation-into-killing-of-euromaidan-protesters-indicts-yanukovych-for-murder/
Then President Viktor Yanukovych aided by his internal affairs minister and his deputy, the ex-head of the Security Service of Ukraine, the ex-defense minister, and the ex-commander of the Berkut riot police division, intentionally unleashed a massive wave of violent police attacks upon peaceful EuroMaidan street protesters in Kyiv in the winter of 2013 to 2014 slaughtering more than 100 Ukrainian protesters.
Shokin did nothing.
Now, after all that prolonged delay criminal charges are finally brought.
And to any average Ukraine citizen talk about Burisma or Hunter Biden provokes bewilderment.
Vicious Troll spews:
Congratulations to Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit, whose pitifully small holding in Generac has plunged to nearly break the Benjamin heading in the wrong direction.
After crowing on HA about how big his paper gain was, he has watched his shares fall 10% in the last five days, and now nervously nurses his 2% paper gain on this investment. One reason for his nervousness is that BofA is predicting he’ll be underwater right quick:
Generac is, after all, his one winner for the year.
Another reason for Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit’s nervousness is that it will be one more financial disappointment his family will suffer.
Don’t be a dumbfuck. Don’t invest like Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit does.

Speaking @ 28 of “for the year”, the DJIA is in negative territory for 2023.

@ 27
And to any average Ukraine citizen talk about Burisma or Hunter Biden provokes bewilderment.
Not a surprise, since the investigation into the Burisma/Biden Crime Family corruption was stopped by Shokin’s ouster. And since Ukrainians have other things on their minds these days.
Funny, isn’t it, that the Euromaidan protest violence was never mentioned by Team Biden during the 2020 campaign as a contributor to Shokin’s ouster. After all, it’s not like there wasn’t plenty of analysis already floating around right around the time Biden announced. This 2019 piece from the Brooking’s Institution makes no mention of Shokin.
Exit question for QoS McHillbilly: If Shokin “doing nothing” was helpful to Yanukovych’s efforts to retain power, wouldn’t Shokin have been kept around, rather than ousted?

From the Mississippi Free Press:
Favre has denied knowing the money came from welfare funds, and the text messages do not show anyone directly telling him TANF money was involved.
Unrelatedly, Joe Biden has denied receiving money from CCP-linked sources in China and the wire transfers do not show anyone directly wiring him CCP-sourced money.
Keep it up. So can I.

Typical of Republicans.
Float the idea of putting a guy well known for his aversion to doing actual work, functional illiteracy and inability to give up Golf even though his swing is shit in the speakership.
