So with Santos expelled,seems some GOP want Gaetz to join him. Wonder if the GOP have tge votes for that?
@ 2
You know it’s not as simple as a censure, right?
McCarthy lost his speakership pursuant to a new rule. Gaetz insisted on the rule and then used it. Gaetz alone could not have brought down McCarthy. McCarthy agreed to the rule because he wanted the speakership.
You don’t get a 2/3 House majority for orchestrating an action that QoS McHillbilly spent several months telling us was coming.
C’mon, man.. Musing about a Congressional expulsion is as silly as when Queen YLB mused about the banning of an HA commenter that she did not favor.
A mention of eggplant by Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit is just another of his racial slurs.
Worse than Clinton, actually.
‘Bunch of Lies’: Biden’s Clintonesque Denial Before a House Impeachment Inquiry Vote
Bill Clinton was a slave to the needs of his dick. Because of the corrupt and illegal behavior of his son, Joe Biden is a slave to the needs of Ukraine and China.
“SPD. KKK. IDF, you’re all the same.”
Of course, they have no shame to hide, so the only thing worth exposing is their identity.
HA resident silly twat Queen YLB is proud that both of her children bear sheepskins proving indoctrination at this POS university.
I’ll be kicked off of HA before Gaetz is kicked out of Congress.
And when that happens, Queen YLB can unseriously mangle whatever relationship between state and federal political entities she pleases, and Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit can slur whichever minority group and incite whatever liberal violence he pleases.
It’s not because he agrees with what I have to share that Darryl keeps me around.
A corrupt president who knows he will never face the electorate, ever again.
My corrupt, incompetent, senile fossil of a president. Whose demise is Momala’s only path to the presidency.
We can all hope the profoundly stupid troll is as accurate here as he was about Brave Kevin, or The Pain, or the rate of federal tax filing violations, or TSLA, or nearly anything else.
Even Puddy was never this consistently wrong about everything, and that motherfucker was insane.
But personally, I’d like to see Gaetz stick around. He’s good for Democrats and otherwise fairly ineffective and harmless. He’s only really effective at promoting himself, creating disunity among Republicans, turning away millions of unaligned voters, and slipping Rohypnol into pre-teen girl’s sodas.
Eight year moratorium on family separation means Matt Gaetz may have to leave Congress in order to earn enough money to buy sexual partners from refugee families seeking assylum.
I wonder if Farmer Jim and other remarkably stupid Republicans realize that AI can unblur the faces?
I’m just kidding.
I know Republicans are too stupid to realize something so obvious.
After all, it was Republicans who filmed themselves committing violent insurrection (and Tazing themselves to death in the balls) in the first place.
@ 10
…realize that AI can unblur the faces?
AI can also confirm Queen YLB’s XX chromosome status.
In another few months the app will be able to detect G-clown’s circumanal monkeypox ulcerations under his clothing, even in the dim light of the greasy alley behind the bar on a Saturday night.
Too bad for G-clown, who must rely on anonymity and blindness to get buttfucked.
No word, yet, on how much POS Hunter had to pay to fuck Jill that one time.
From the chart, it doesn’t seem that Hunter slept much in 2018.
Republicans should ask themselves why the more the media focuses on the consequences of another Trump presidency, the more Nikki Haley polls better head-to-head against President Biden than Trump does.
Especially they are 100% guaranteed to nominate Trump.

Every single voter who took part in the 2020 election knew exactly how sleazy Hunter Biden’s life was while he was in addiction.
I’m sure it must have had some effect on some number of voters.
But whatever it was, that effect was not enough to prevent an incumbent utilizing the full resources of the Executive Branch, DOJ, and Department of Homeland Security to promote his re-election from being beaten into humiliation by a retired guy campaigning from his basement.
Four years and 15 million new jobs later it won’t even be an after thought.
Trump’s only path lies in a big economic recession that Republicans and the profoundly stupid troll have been ardently praying for every day for the last three years. And it won’t happen. So LAPTOP is all they have left. And it’s not working.
@ 20
Every single voter who took part in the 2020 election knew exactly how sleazy Hunter Biden’s life was while he was in addiction.
No. Voters who read NY Post knew. Voters who relied on other sources – NYT, NBC News are good examples – were not informed of the laptop contents. NY Post was de-platformed by Twitter for reporting on its pages.
There’s personal sleaze and there is political corruption. They are two different things. Bill Clinton’s personal sleaze is less important than Joe Biden’s allegiance to China and to the people in Ukraine who know how much The Biden Crime Family took from special interests there.
Had Hunter Biden’s personal sleaze been the only item revealed by the laptop, 51 former intel types wouldn’t have gotten together at Blinken’s request to issue a denial that the laptop was real.
You’re full of shit, McHillbilly. Historical revisionism is beneath you.
I’ve read through Dean Phillips website twice now, one month apart. I’ve seen him speak remotely in town halls twice. I’ve endured two lengthy recorded media interviews. I’m done offering the guy the benefit of the doubt.
Here’s what I come away with.
He has a compelling personal narrative (that we have absolutely no clue if any of it is true or verified*) that he delivers with incredible emotion and charisma. He has a very well honed campaign message that he is very effective at delivering in a media setting.
His primary rationales for challenging the President is that he personally considers the President to be too old and he is convinced that some early polling showing Trump with a lead over Biden is unfallably predictive and guaranteed to result in another Trump presidency. In support of this he offers only his personal opinion and the polls themselves.
Since announcing his entry into the primary campaign he has repeatedly argued that he has big policy differences to offer in contrast to President Biden. And he has also offered big criticisms of the Biden administration performance. But he has yet to unveil any specifics or draw any specific contrasts with his opponent on legislation or policy.
He was born into great wealth and enjoyed a predictably privileged early life and career. He leveraged some of that wealth and privilege into a fortunate early investment into an ice cream brand that he and his partners sold for a reported huge windfall. With a lifestyle secured by his family distilling business he used a portion of that windfall to self-fund his first campaign, which made him very attractive to the Democratic Party of Minnesotta struggling to rebuild during the Trump/George Floyd years. He’s won three elections in Minnesotta’s 3rd district in an 80% all-white suburb to the west of Minneapolis, defeating a five-term Republican in a district that voted for Democrats in every statewide election since 2004.
His capacity to turnout and persuade key unaligned, and decisive groups of voters in battleground electoral states like Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin is almost entirely untested. And I conclude it will depend mostly upon his ability to articulate a domestic policy agenda in contrast to President Biden and to Donald Trump. And that domestic policy agenda remains undisclosed. He is a “Problem Solver” Democrat who aligns himself with Third Way, DLC messaging. To my mind that means that specifics of any domestic policy agenda will remain undisclosed as a matter of campaign messaging strategy, since the real agenda will be to mostly cater to big business and finance.
For that reason I believe he would and will run a campaign that should be very familiar to us already. We saw that movie in 2016 when it starred Hillary Clinton. And we already know how that ended.
Given that Phillips’ main argument in favor of his candidacy is that he would be more likely to defeat Donald Trump in a general election, I’ve concluded now that there’s no longer any point in paying any attention to him. I don’t really think he’s running as a stalking horse for Trump. He’s just high on his own supply. And like a lot of Third Way Democrats he’s out of touch with the party and with voters in general. In a general election pitted against Donald Trump he would focus his messaging on Trump, playing directly into Trump’s overall strategy.
*Nobody is doing any deep research into most of his life story or narrative. There is no reason to assume that all of it isn’t true. But we should all be aware that campaign personal bios are vulnerabilities in modern politics. Claims that sound like virtues can be turned into fatal liabilities in an instant.
Why make my point for me?
We know that readers of political scandal reportage in publications like Breitbart or Huffpost don’t decide election outcomes. “Readers” probably not at all.
It’s Tik Tok voters who decide. Unaligned, disengaged voters who encounter splashyTik Tok tabloid memes in between “knockout” videos and Taylor Swift.
@ 22
I’d be interested in a reappraisal of Dean Phillips written with the assumption that Joe Biden will not be the DNC candidate by November.
And so far all ultra-MAGA Republicans have come up with is the personal sleaze of a close relative of the President. And it’s all personal sleaze that unaligned, disengaged voters have been aware of since before 2020.
By and large most of those unaligned, disengaged voters reached their conclusions about Hunter Biden’s sleazy drug addict existence long before the 2020 election. And many reached those conclusions while he may have still been actively using. They concluded then that it didn’t matter. That’s probably because addiction in American families is quite a bit more common than we might want to admit. And most people are personally familiar already with stories of redemption as well as with failure. And while they may not celebrate them, they also are not nearly so afraid of them as Republican hypocrites might prefer.
So the challenge facing Republicans hoping to use that is to convnce those unaligned, disengaged voters to reconsider their earlier conclusions and decide that now it does matter. Delving into the details of that sleazy existence is unlikely to do so, since Hunter Biden himself laid all that out pretty starkly in his obligatory drug addiction memoir published in 2021. Despite public mockery, humiliation, financial ruin, incredibly prolonged criminal persecution, and persistent public hounding by ultra-MAGA House Republicans, Hunter Biden has not yet relapsed or killed himself, no doubt a great source of disappointment to Republicans everywhere.
So Republicans have mostly already failed at this gambit, probably in no small part due to the fact that they never really understood what they were doing in the first place. After all, they hired Rudy Giuliani to launch the whole thing way back in 2017. And just look how well that turned out.
Why do Trump’s supporters continue to hold up their greatest abject failures and display them to us like threats?
These things don’t give me cause for concern. They offer me encouragement.
CNN clowning again to make it seem close.
More than 30% of the people living in this largely rural part of Central Louisiana are currently below the poverty line ‘And they blame Biden.” Cool cool CNN. Did you bother to push back on why this part of Louisiana has had a rate of between 28-34% since the George Bush Sr. administration and possibly push back?
And the tone, like all the ‘Biden in trouble’ pieces of late is that Biden could lose these voters. Yeah, a district that since it was last redrawn in 2000 has never elected a Democrat to any office. A District that went 64% Trump (twice) 61% Romney, 62% McCain.
These are ‘swing’ voters apparently. Rednecks having a parade of MAGA flags have abandoned the Democrats because Biden kept them on the better end of the poverty rate they’ve been in for two generations.
Excellent journalism.

Did I not already say as much in that post?
He would run a Third Way “Problem Solvers” bullshit campaign very similar to the campaign run for Hillary Clinton in 2016.
He would focus his messaging on his opponent, particularly his opponent’s flawed character and contrast his own “inspiring” personal narrative. Beyond that his messaging agenda would contain little more than vague platitudes and no specifics, precisely as it does today. In this way he would make the campaign “about Trump” instead of making it about the voters, just the way Hillary did. And he would leave a significant percentage of those voters feeling overlooked and forgotten. Out of the frustration born of that feeling a significant number of voters would decline to turnout. And another significant number of voters would vote for Trump to “demonstrate their frustration”.
So he would lose key battlegroud states where he could not afford to lose. And Trump would win.
By and large most of those unaligned, disengaged voters reached their conclusions about Hunter Biden’s sleazy drug addict existence..
Yes, drug addiction is not particularly becoming..
Just look at our dying troll, its drugs are always wrong wing bullshit, misogyny, inchoate hate and bourbon. Mix in ED meds, xiaflex, xanax, rogaine, viviscal, propecia.. too fucked up for words.
26,
Biden could lose these voters, or rather voters like these in places where he can’t afford to lose them. And he could lose them for reasons very like the way I describe Dean Phillips losing these voters. And those are also the reasons media companies like CNN run this kind of bullshit story.
People are no longer content to passivly consume news of important events. They increasingly demand that their own lives and existence be centered in that news. Smart political campaigns understand this and ground their messaging in that imperitive daily, even hourly.
Campaigns must not be for “our candidate”.
They must be for “the people”. And to do this the campaigns must constantly center their messaging on the people they will serve and not on the ego of the candidate.
Trump, despite his very obviously grandiose and honestly delusional ego, has some kind of natural talent for this. Pay attention and you’ll see it coming through. His people are at the center of his messaging. Biden is very good at it too, partly because, while he may have just as gradiose of an ego, his sufficiently self-aware to have created a personal style that focuses on humility. But more importantly, at least so far as I know, the messaging strategy intended for Biden campaign is built around centering the interests, needs, and value of the voters the campaign seeks to engage and persuade.
That’s why the campaign mostly declines to talk about Trump or any other opponent except when that opponent has taken a position directly hostile to those voters.
But it also creates a big challenge for the campaign to figure out how to introduce voters to all the acheivements of the Biden Economic Miracle without making it “all about Biden” or “all about Democrats”. The preferred communication strategy, and the one being briefed in trainings this winter, focuses campaigns on making the story about “the incredible acheivements of the American worker” and “the incredible acheivements of the American family” in coming back from the horrific adversity and darkness of the Trump/COVID disaster.

For weeks my lawyers and I pleaded with Republicans in the House to accept my cooperation with their subpoena and allow me to come and testify before them in Congress and answer all their questions. And for weeks the Republicans in the House dithered and evaded and then went on television on December 6th to announce that they would not allow me to testify and that instead they would hold a vote to find me in contempt.
Less than 24 hours later the Special Counsel convened his previously seated grand jury in the Central District of California to vote a bill of indictment against me on criminal charges that the Special Counsel had previously agreed to settle in May of this year. That indictment was filed at the close of business that day so that it could be reported in the major media by Friday morning ahead of the weekend.
Now, because of that criminal indictment I am barred from answering Repiublicans’ questions until after a trial is held or the charges are dropped.
This timing is not coincidental.
And the planned, careful coordination of these events between the Special Counsel prosecuting me and the House Republicans investigating me because they oppose my father is a violation of my legal rights to due process and likely also involves criminal fraud.

Headline today on KING 5 News website: “Israel presses ahead with bombarding Gaza, including areas it told Palestinians to evacuate to”

His leaflets say, “This is the Americans. We’re going to flatten this city with a new superweapon. For your safety, evacuate immediately to Nagasaki.”
FINISH THEM.
This is fucking wild:
https://www.cbsnews.com/sanfrancisco/news/update-police-standoff-in-pleasant-hill-with-former-detective-resumes/
I’m very glad the suspect was able to be taken into custody without any further injury.
At the same time I’m overwhelmed with skepticism about the decision by Pleasant Hill police to disengage from the barricaded and armed suspect at around 2 am Friday morning and leave the area for a “little cooling off period”, before returning to set up a command post in a nearby shopping center on Friday evening and eventually aprehend the shooter who earlier had wounded his wife and fired at an armored police tactical vehicle.
But let me be clear: I’m not skeptical that allowing the suspect time to cool off and accept communications efforts was bad police tactics. Not at all. I suspect that the reason this incident ended without any further risk to officer safety and without any further injury to anyone was entirely because of the decision to disengage.
I’m just skeptical that this particular de-escalation tactic will ever be used again, or at least not until the next time a retired police officer with relationships to local police happens to decide to exercise his 2A rights.
Guess what kids? De-escalation actually works a lot better than Killology™ and gratuitous pet shooting.
Cops just dont normally find de-escalation to be as much fun as playing super-soldier. But they’ll obviously make an exception for one of their own.
I was initially sympathetic to Israel, and I’m more accepting of their military tactics than most HA posters (because I’m familiar with the realities of war), but at some point Israel will lose its few remaining friends (including a majority of the U.S. public) if civilian bodies keep piling up. Biden has been a staunch Israel supporter all his life, but to get him reelected, someone in his party needs to convince him that his unwavering support of Israel may need to waver if this operation continues to look like a calculated genocide.
Sure Jan.

@4 “The evidence is overwhelming that the president surely knew of his family’s influence peddling and foreign interests.”
There’s also overwhelming evidence, shown by study after study, and confirmed by the real-life experience of millions of individuals, that parents can’t tell their forty-something children what to do.
Now suppose an 81-year-old guy knows his 53-year-old son hangs out with bad people, engages in shady business dealings, and has even been indicted on tax evasion and gun charges. That knowledge makes Pops guilty of — ??
Intelligent people and forestland creatures know there’s nothing there to take to a jury of peers, but dumbfucks are gonna dumbfuck, and Republicans are gonna spin. It’s what they do.
@4 “Knowledge that your family has engaged in such corruption is all the more serious when you facilitate or enable these efforts through meetings, dinners and calls.”
You mean calling Prodigal Son on his birthday and saying over the phone (with his shady associates listening in), “Happy birthday, son”?
Dumbfucks gotta dumbfuck. It’s like heroin to an addict. They can’t live without their fix.
@4 “Because of the corrupt and illegal behavior of his son, Joe Biden is a slave to the needs of Ukraine and China.”
People not living in a cloud of Republican fantasies have yet to see a line connecting those two dots. By all outward appearances, they’re just random specks on the paper Farmer Jim wipes his ass with.
50,
Congress is preparing to appropriate another $10 billion in entirely unaccounted for military assistance dollars to the IDF. As far as the United States taxpayer is concerned, the IDF is free to use every penny of that crushing the testicles of chldren struggling to live without food, water, or shelter in Gaza.
While at the same time additional, carefully detailed and highly restricted defense funding assistance desperately needed by Ukraine is being stalled at Putin’s request by House and Senate Republicans.
I think it’s reasonable to have assumed that President Biden was optimistically hoping that these two unrelated spending packages could have been tied together into a single piece of legislation. Naive perhaps. But reasonable. And there may still exist some hope that something like that kind of agreement can be acheived.
But in the mean time that puts President Biden in a difficult bind when it comes to putting pressure on Israel to stop the repulsive infant testicle crushing. Perhaps no other defense appratus on earth, other than our own DOD, has as much direct, regular engagement with and access to Congress as the IDF. Nothing that is happening to either of those two spending packages is opaque to the IDF. And thus it is perhaps less than ironic that when it comes to defense support for Ukraine, the interests of Putin and the IDF are now almost perfectly aligned, at least for a time.
While Ukraine funding is in limbo, Biden may not openly exert real pressure on Israel to refrain from genocide – not while he still hopes to get Reublican support for Ukraine. And as soon as Ukraine funding is secured, Biden will have a free hand. So we get this grotesque dance, for at least a time.
Israel hopes that they can continue to use their exceptional influence in Congress to stall Ukraine assistance long enough to have created an irreversible humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza from which the Palestinian population can never recover. But Putin will not stay his hand forever. And before winter has progressed much farther in Ukraine there is reason to believe that Putin will use the suspension of assistance as an opportunity to recapture territory and further entrench Russia’s invasion forces in an attempt to break Ukraine and force them to negotiate terms for the surrender of its sovereign territory to Russia.
It’s a fairly dismal interregnum we find ourselves in, where the normal security interests of the US are being subverted by a Republican minority. And whichever outcome events tip in favor of, there will be enormous cost to US security, prestige, and standing, and much gratitude (and 2024 campaign assistance) flowing to Republicans from whichever murderous despot regime happens to win the contest of timing.
If I had to predict, I put my money on Israel. By the look of things, they are already pretty close to having reduced Gaza to an unliveable hell. They may only need a few more weeks. And Putin’s military is just not as capable as we once believed. I doubt they can actually get their shit together in time to mount any kind of effective winter counter offensive in Ukraine. Certainly not when you take into account the remarkable creativity and resourcefullness that Ukraine has demonstrated up to this point.

@5 According to more objective reporting than rants on rightwing radio and Elon’s soapbox, or by HA’s dumbfuck troll, they were chanting, “Free Palestine within our lifetime.” No mention of Hamas, or anything to suggest they support Hamas; to the contrary, their chants criticized several known perpetrators of violence. But dumbfucks are gonna dumbfuck, and liars are gonna lie, amirite?
Palestine, of course, is unfree. It’s a place where the colonizing power dispossesses the indigenous people, allows its settlers to murder them, and arbitrarily arrests and imprisons them for such “crimes” as criticizing the occupying power on social media. It operates a system of gulags it calls “refugee camps” and engages in resettlement operations. And our government subsidizes all of this.
When a rightwing hack posts on Elon’s blog (now with a market value of $44) that if a group of students gather in a public place and demand this stop they’re “antisemites in support of Hamas,” the dumbfuck doctor laps it up.
People who don’t like Palestinian freedom are so obnoxious, dishonest, and coercive they almost force you to dislike anybody who sticks up for Israel, but I won’t take that bait. On the other hand, I don’t consider Israel above criticism, and I regard people like the above who try to suppress valid criticism of Israel as bullies, thugs, and tyrants.
As the dumbfuck doctor himself would say, let the chips fall wherever they land.

@12 Go ahead and use that chart for options trading purposes. It’s about economics, isn’t it? So why not?
@14 “this POS university.”
Oh, I glossed over that. The UW is a world-class university, but I can understand why someone who couldn’t get in would call it a “POS university.” Joe the Plumber. Doctor Dumbfuck. Every wannabe on grade probation at a small rural community college. People who get medical degrees from online for-profit schools, then are hired as assistant x-ray readers by hospitals desperate for personnel.
What I’m getting at is that calling the UW a “POS university” tells you a lot more about the caller than the university. You can describe them all, though, with one phrase: “Couldn’t get in.”
(Now let’s wait and see if the dumbfuck is stupid enough to post a claim that I didn’t get into the UW, where I was selected from a field of 2,200 applicants for 140 seats in the law school.)
@16 “the banning of an HA commenter”
I glossed over that, too. Dumbfuck must be really paranoid to think he’s in danger of being kicked off HA. Oh, it’s happened, but it takes far more work than he’d ever be willing to put out.
However, if doc really wants to get kicked off HA, he should get together with Mark Adams to get pointers. I understand Mark is his real name and IIRC he told us he lives in Bellingham, not far from doc’s stomping grounds. One piece of advice Mark could give doc is sue Goldy to find out who Roger Rabbit is. That might work to get him kicked off HA. It did for Mark. Goldy doesn’t like responding to frivolous lawsuits any more than anyone else does.

Interesting sale of Iowa Northern to Canadian National Railway.(Which by owning Illinois Central is in Iowa already). Didn’t say for how much, but definitely much more than the $50(1972 dollars, btw) he cost a Chicago waitress when he ruined her day early in his career. Mr Sabin, INR Chair, started in railroading as an operator for Rock Island in Manly, Iowa while in High School. A few years, as a full fledged dispatcher, was working a tower in Joliet when he made a rookie mistake that caused almost all Rock Island commuter trains to be late. Tge story he told in a magazine article was that a late freight train asked to cross the mainline, and figured it would be clear before the first commuter train ran. Even though he had been told, whatever he did, don’t delay the commuter train. The coupler broke ion the locomotive, and thanks to him, all the RI commuter trains were very late He even thought he was out of a job when called to see the boss at LaSalle Street Station. Before seeing him, the boss sent him to tge diner down the street, told him to order a meal, and then ask the waitress how her day was going. She chewed him out, because those were her regular customers, and normally netted $50 in tips. When his boss was ready to see him, he said he got the message.

Been wanting Spokane Transit to get these for a long time. STA Plaza zones, only a few can accommodate boarding an articulated bus, a Double Decker is around 42 to 45ft. They will be working Rts 6 and 66. Have seen some suggestions that the STA should have bought the Double Deckers Community Transit is retiring, but those, since they were used on Commuter Routes are probably high-mileage. Both Double Deckers and Articulated buses have their uses, even with the same agency.
Wished the manufacturer brought over the whole range of this model, plus the Enviro 100 and Enviro 200 series single deckers, but those may conflict with their North American owners other company offerings.

Funny how a black guy found changing a flat tire on the side of an Alabama road was arrested for obstructing governmental operations, resisting arrest, marijuana possession, trafficking fentanyl, and ex-felon in possession of a firearm, with bail set at $500,000; but the fentanyl trafficking charge was dropped because the drug test for fentanyl came back negative, the ex-felon in possession of firearm charge was dropped because he isn’t an ex-felon, and his bail was reduced to $5,000 on the obstruction and resisting charges of yelling he couldn’t breathe with the cop’s foot on his back.

I think it would be best to let White Alabama wallow in their ignorance and poverty. You can’t reform those folks. They’re a basket case. Just take more money from them in federal court every time they do this. And tell their ex-football coach senator to STFU.*
* Actually, I think the GOP Senate caucus just did.
I suspect the little white female cop was scared shitless because the big black guy had a gun, and that’s why this went down the way it did (tasered, foot on back, etc.). But open carry is legal in Alabama, so he not only wasn’t breaking any law, but had a right to have the gun. Obviously it creates additional problems for cops during traffic stops to allow motorists to go around armed. But that’s a Republican law.

0.00008 %
That is the percentage of US undergraduate students enrolled each year who attend either Harvard or Penn.
Given what a remarkably tiny impact these undergraduates have in actuality on the workforce, the population, our culture, and our society it’s very impressive indeed how largely the institutions they attend figure in our national psyche. Even if you are a “doctor” and you are reading these words, chances are you don’t even know anyone personally who gradiated from Harvard. And you never will. Maybe Daryl does. Maybe. I doubt he reads this.
Obviously, as institutions, these schools and the people who operate them, rely on much more than their undergraduates for their impact on society. And I’m sure as such, they look to recruit and employ leaders who have an astute sense of that impact, where it comes from, and how best to protect it. I think it was a mistake for these leaders to have agreed to appear at these show trial ambush hearings under these circumstances. And while I’m certainly not paid to see these obvious culture wars ambushes that way, they are. By showing up in the first place, presumably to stroke their own egos, they needlessly imperiled the reputations of the institutions they serve. And if a few largely unimportant undergrads experience five seconds of butt hurtz in their otherwise incredibly privileged lives because of their terminations, so what?
Neither these leaders, their dipshit undergrads, nor these institutions, represent constituencies that Democrats ought to be concerned about. They do not represent “undergraduate education” in the United States. They do not represent “college”. The do not represent “higher education”. Honestly, what they represent is a fairly silly aspiration.
Moreover, this isn’t going to have any impact on a single persuadable voter. They don’t know anyone from Harvard either.
Yet astonishingly, this non-event fully occupied with great significant one of the last Saturday nights that profoundly stupid troll will ever get to know. If it were anyone else it would be tragic.

Facts left out by Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit:
1.
2. The in-shape 24 year-old man is at least a foot taller than the diminutive police officer. Look at the photo. Does this look like a dude who might be “having trouble breathing” because a much smaller woman places her foot on his body while he’s recumbent?
3. The claim was that the officer found a baggie with 7 grams of cocaine laced with fentanyl. Turns out it was only cocaine. Oh, and he also had marijuana.
Lazy Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit failed to look elsewhere for more information. Had he done so
https://www.al.com/news/2023/12/handcuffed-man-hit-with-stun-gun-by-alabama-police-after-stopping-to-change-tire-freed-from-jail.html
he would have found that the “victim” also was recording, prior to his arrest, and yet that recording didn’t make it into the ABC News article.
He would also have found that there was a positive field test for fentanyl, which was not confirmed with subsequent testing.
His real crimes were drug possession and resisting arrest. Yet to be seen by the public are the additional video by the “victim” and the officer’s body camera video.
Some humor: During the altercation he called her “bro”. She told him to “shut your bitch ass up”. Maybe they should each be arrested for intentional misgendering.

Perhaps, McHillbilly, you might look beyond mere undergraduate data, and concentrate for a bit on how professional school graduates from these institutions shape “our culture and society”.
And then there’s John Huntsman, former Ambassador to China in the Obama administration, who is a Penn graduate.
And I do recall that our 45th and quite-possibly 47th president is a Wharton School graduate. Penn as well.
The above examples are just ones off the top of my head. Shall I look for others, or is my point made?
It’s because of this obvious relationship between the universities in question and how their professional school graduates influence the direction our nation takes that QoS McHillbilly chooses instead to compare Harvard’s undergrad degree-holders to the national pool of human chattel like Queen YLB’s fucked kids and their cosmetology degrees from Suck-Dick-For-A-Living U.
I agree, McHillbilly. This was fun.

Because neither the president of the university nor its student conduct policies have any authority at all over professional school graduates.

This is the trap door that I alluded to yesterday in a reply to Roger.
President Biden clearly has it in his authority to condition additional military assistance to Israel on specific human rights and humanitarian performance. Even after Congress approves a funding package the President may at his sole discretion granted by the Constitution, withold some or all of that assistance.
But for now he is prevented from doing so by Trump/Putin controlled Republicans in the House and Senate blocking further assistance to Ukraine to resist the Russian invasion.
For now.
@ 104
Huntsman never attended any graduate professional school.
Please show me where I wrote that he did.
Trump by all accounts paid people to take his classes and tests.
And Biden rewarded Blinken with SoS for soliciting a letter signed by 51 people who falsely claimed that the POS Hunter Biden laptop looked exactly like every other Russian misinformation effort they had ever seen.
If you’re going to make the point that dishonesty in the office of the president is wrong, McHillbilly, you’re going to have to wait at least until January 20, 2025 to avoid hypocrisy in doing so.

Nearly everyday when I post here it includes another example of this profoundly stupid troll stomping on rakes, spreading easily disprovable lies, and diving headlong into anuses of distraction. And as I’ve also demonstrated many, many times this performance of his is in perfect comportment with well understood propoganda techniques developed initially by Joseph Goebbels and perhaps perfected by Russian disinformation.
I think it’s enough to make the effort once or twice a day in regards to whichever bullshit the profoundly stupid troll is spraying around with his Firehose of Falsehood. Yesterday I debunked his bullshit claim that 63% of tax cheats are sent to prison. Today I’ve debunked his bullshit claim that Elise Stefaniek is “winning” something other than attention from hand-wringing media elites. What’s next?
Having previously debunked the profoundly stupid troll’s bullshit claim that US retailers are suffering catastrophic losses due to organized retail theft, today I also got him to acknowledge that he was full of shit and that he routinely posts lies.
That actually does not comport with the Firehose of Falsehood model, as George Santos can attest. The profoundly stupid troll does actually once in a while acknowledge it when his bullshit is exposed with irrefutable evidence. As in this case, when he does so it is very quietly done, without comment or remorse. And if anyone cares to study the record you’ll see that it’s a lot more common and frequent than that lack of volume or commentary might suggest. The majority of what the profoundly stupid troll ever posts is ultimately proven to be pure FB friends in CO bullshit. Sometimes he embarassingly sticks to the lies and humiliates himself before simply dropping it. Other times he very quietly owns it. I guess he thinks this gives him credibility?
I find that laughable. Admitting to being a lying bullshitter makes someone a lying bullshitter.

Well technically George Santos is a seriously lying bullshitter. Because no matter what, and as Florida GOP Chairman, rapist, and amateur pornographer Christian Ziegler recently shared at a candidate training event, a serious Firehose of Falsehood professional never admits being wrong.
The profoundly stupid troll is merely an unserious amateur.
And speaking of Florida GOP Chairman, and close family friend of the DeSantis family (wink – wink) Christian Ziegler, Sarasota police have recoverd the amateur pornographic video Ziegler made with his cell phone on the day of the rape. And some portions have been “shared” by sources with the Sarasota police (media where art thou?).
The video of the sex act is brief in duration and the victim can be heard telling Ziegler to climax in her mouth rather than on her new shirt. Sources would neither confirm nor deny if Ziegler complied with the request. To follow up requests about whether or not the victim swallowed, there was no further comment.

and there’s more.. same link:
Mr. Trump’s campaign on Saturday accused the DeSantis campaign of spreading misinformation about the caucuses, which will be held on Jan. 15. It suggested that the move was part of a broader scheme to change the outcome in the state, where polls show that Mr. Trump, the Republican front-runner, has a significant lead.
“The Trump campaign strongly condemns their dirty and illegal tactics and implores all Trump supporters to be aware of the DeSantises’ openly stated plot to rig the caucus through fraud,” the campaign said in a statement.
There will be consequences indeed… kon-klown will lose…
…claim a set-up by opponents.
I can’t see how.
So far he only disputes that the sex was non-consensual.
Both he and his wife, a founder of Moms for Liberty, have admitted that they engage in three-way sexual relationships and that Ziegler makes amateur pornographic films of the encounters.
As for the day of the rape, the arranged meet up for sex was to have included Mrs. Ziegler but she canceled at the last minute – they are both very important, very busy Republicans and coordinating schedules for three-ways is really tough. So Mrs. Ziegler would therefore have to have been taking part in any alleged “set up” of Mr. Ziegler for the rape. Which seems very unlikely.
As part of their investigation, with the assistance of the victim, police arranged a series of follow up texts and recorded phone calls in an attempt to get Mr. Ziegler to admit to rape. He would not. Which is actually not even remotely uncommon for date rapists. Most date rapists sincerely believe that they are engaging in consensual sex, even when they are raping an unconscious victim, and even when that victim is unconscious because they have been drugged by their perpetrator.
However, the amateur pornographic video in which the victim requests that her perpetrator deposit his semen inside of her mouth rather than on her new blouse is likely to prevent the case from proceding to trial or even to result in an arrest, imho. It’s impossible to convince a jury to convict on a charge of forcible rape when the victim is recorded negotiating an agreement with her perpetrator like that. Jurors tend to interpret that as an expression of consent.
A local prosecutor might dangle the threat of pubic humiliation from a trial in which that pornographic tape becomes a key element of the defense as leverage. So it might be possible to obtain a plea to a lesser offense from Mr. Ziegler. But such a plea would probably be accompanied by his removal from his position of leadership in the Republican Party. And he seems to be aiming to keep that job.
So I guess swinging amateur pornographers are now going to just become a normal part of the Republican Party, “traditional conservative family values” and the Don’t Say Gay movement. Or at least, that seems to be the plan. I don’t see why not, really. After all, they’ve already managed to incorporate child rape, weed cruises, Dildo Navys, ball gags, zipper masks, and sex dungeons into all that bullshit.
I don’t have children. But I must assume that any half way responsible parent would by now have concluded that their school age child is far safer attending a drag queen story hour than any gathering of GOP officials.

https://www.rawstory.com/rudy-giuliani-obama-racism/
I don’t totally disagree with him. America definitely is more racist after a black guy was elected president (twice). But I don’t think it’s provable that Obama’s election made America more racist; more likely his election brought the racists we already have out of the closet and made them noisier.

So you’ll just fill in the blank space with your lively imagination.
“Does this look like a dude who might be ‘having trouble breathing’ because a much smaller woman places her foot on his body while he’s recumbent?”
Yes. With all the tactical gear she’s wearing, she probably weighs almost as much as she does. And anyway, you should sometime try breathing with a 15-lb. cat sleeping on top of you.
“The claim was …”
Which is always good enough for you.

@92 Don’t have to make up “obstructing” and “resisting” charges on that one.
By the way, if someone actually has fentanyl and/or cocaine in their possession, why bother charging him with “obstructing” and “resisting”? Most cops keep those charges in reserve for situations where they’ve got nothing else.
@93 “Just as you don’t understand that a change in the composition of a single state’s legislature means nothing to the US Senate Majority Leader, whether he be Cocaine Mitch, Chuck Schumer, or whomever.”
Unless, of course, the gerrymandered legislature elects the state’s U.S. Senators, an aspiration today’s conservatives.
Which brings up this: No matter how frustrated today’s young voters may be with Biden and the Democrats, they need to remember that once the camel gets into the tent it’s nearly impossible to get the camel out of the tent.
The ultimate goal of today’s conservatives is minority dictatorship, pure and simple. That has to be stopped at the ballot box before they get in. Once they’re in, it’s too late, because they’ll change the rules so you can’t vote them out. See Wisconsin as an example.
@96 “that’s a new one from kreepshit”
He’s trying to change the topic from a black guy changing a tire to an arsonist dousing a house with gasoline. There’s nothing new about that. It’s SOP for him.
@99 “Senile Joe” is now “Genocide Joe”? That surely gives him a big boost in your esteem.
@100 “Heard it on NPR last week when I was driving, but conveniently forgot to post it.”
ftfy
@102 “Because neither the president of the university nor its student conduct policies have any authority at all over professional school graduates.”
Say it isn’t so! I refuse to believe they can’t revoke DeSantis’s degrees for profoundly embarrassing them.
@105 Do you think it’s appropriate for Congress to dictate who private universities can hire, who they can admit, and what they can teach? If MAGA Mike got his way, UPenn’s next president would be Ken Ham.
@106 If young people stay home from the polls in 2024 because Biden was thwarted by SCOTUS, they and their children could possibly look forward to free studies in Christianist-run re-education camps.
Doc @108: “Huntsman never attended any graduate professional school. Please show me where I wrote that he did.”
Now let’s back up:
Doc @90: “Perhaps, McHillbilly, you might look beyond mere undergraduate data, and concentrate for a bit on how professional school graduates from these institutions shape ‘our culture and society’. … And then there’s John Huntsman, former Ambassador to China in the Obama administration, who is a Penn graduate.”
Well played, doc.
Elijah @110: ” What’s next?”
Another shell game, of course.
Until you show us those graduates calling for Genocide for all Jews you have not redeemed your already degraded conditions. And that still leaves you helplessly struggling to explain how and university’s president or student policy controls that you sad pathetic fuck.
Any current Penn undergrads feeling wounded butt hurtz because their crazed, sophomoric takes on world events are not being ratified or embraced by either their own admin or by leading Democrats are a popcorn fart in a class 5 hurricane.
@118 “Mr. Trump’s campaign on Saturday accused the DeSantis campaign of spreading misinformation about the caucuses, …”
He’s actually shocked that a Republican would do that?
@119 “I don’t have children. But I must assume that any half way responsible parent would by now have concluded that their school age child is far safer attending a drag queen story hour than any gathering of GOP officials.”
This has got to be the very best comment you’ve ever posted, and it deserves a Pulitzer Prize.
“Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) said Sunday that the United States needs to accept that Ukraine will likely need to ‘cede some territory’ to Russia to end the fighting.”
https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/4352409-senate-republican-says-us-needs-to-accept-that-ukraine-will-cede-some-territory-to-russia/
His opinion, their territory. If he’d been a senator in the 1940s, I wonder how much (and whose) territory he would’ve ceded to Germany and Japan to end WW2?
JD is a POS.
136,
My understanding is that Wharton is undergoing an alumni driven transformation for which they can thank graduate Trump. Suddenly those assholes care about admissions. Amazeballs!
But I should confess that I don’t happen to consider “business” degrees to be professional degrees. An architecture practice can employ an MBA. A medical practice can employ an MBA. A law firm can employ an MBA. They are not “professionals” in those practices. They are employees.
142,
Well thanks for that Roger.
At this point I guess I thought it was fairly obvious, really. I sure hope more voters figure it out soon. We’ll just have to keep reminding them.
119)Then will probably take any deal to avoid having to register.
I still can’t breathe.
What little is left of the dumbfuck Nazi coward’s mind is disintegrating.
FINISH HIM!!!
Before he becomes an even bigger fucking bore.
Naturally an academic who debunks misinformation gets attacked by conservatives, because misinformation is conservatives’ stock-in-trade.

Did Trump actually say this?
“Letitia James, in a much-watched legal battle, the end result was that Exxon moved out of New York. How do you think that’s a good idea? ExxonMobil, one of the biggest companies in the world, left New York, and they went to Dallas. Great job, Letitia. And that’s what’s happening right now. Businesses are fleeing our country.”
Yes he did!

Answer: To sell to drug criminals!
Bernie brings it.
In short: Finish them.
Finish them.
The dumbfuck Nazi coward, a bore for the ages, is becoming increasingly impatient to get back to…
JEWS WILL NOT REPLACE US!!!
But first he wants Israel to kill as many Palestinians as possible.
The thing about anti-semites like the dumbfuck Nazi coward is they want them all dead, both Jews and Muslims.
The dumbfuck Nazi is too much the coward to ever admit it.
Quick reminder:
This troll is opposed to any humanitarian pause that would prevent or delay the roasting alive of Muslim infants.
Imagine what Raskin would have to say about our dumbfuck Nazi coward.
“Where does Elise Stefanik get off lecturing anybody about antisemitism when she’s a huge supporter of Donald Trump who traffics in antisemitism all the time?” Raskin exclaimed.
“She didn’t utter a peep of protest when he had Kanye West and Nick Fuentes over for dinner — Nick Fuentes, who doubts whether October 7th even took place because he thinks it was some kind of suspicious propaganda move by the Israelis,” he pointed out.
“The Republican party is filled with people who are entangled with antisemitism like that and yet, somehow, she gets on her high horse and lectures a Jewish college president from MIT,” he added.
Degenerate disbarred drunk Confidential Human Source at the heart of that profoundly stupid troll’s baseless claims about Biden corruption begins trial this morning in a case that will leave him and his backers bankrupted and permanently in debt to two Black women.
😃👍❤️😃👍❤️😃👍❤️😃👍❤️
To briefly recap, the federal judge has already ruled that Confidential Human Source is financially liable for twelve specific individual defamatory statements that he issued on television and published about the two Black women in the fall of 2020 right after his client Donald J. Trump was humiliated in losing to President Joe Biden.
For more than a year, with no police protection or intervention of any kind, the mother and daughter and the daughters teenage son faced daily routine death threats, lost their home and jobs, moved homes twelve times, and the son fell behind in school. All three family members developed chronic stress related illness and severe depression requiring treatment and medication. They lost contact with extended family, friends, neighbors and church. They canceled vacations and spent holidays alone, afraid to venture out or put others at risk. Loss of employment resulted in the daughter and her son both losing employment provided health insurance resulting in extended periods of untreated illness and injury including untreated chronic illness.
Confidential Human Source has already previously been ordered to pay over $230,000 to compensate for attorney fees and for defying civil discovery orders in the case. The judge, having found that Confidential Human Source acted deliberately and with malice in defaming the plaintiffs and intentionally inflicted emotional distress, has ordered punitive damages in the case, in addition to non-economic damages.
The Republican nominee recently held a $100,000 per ticket fund raiser at his private Florida sex club to benefit Confidential Human Source.
@ 156
Imagine what Raskin would have to say about our dumbfuck Nazi coward.
He would say, “I wish that guy would stop reminding everyone that my family is so fucked up that my son ended up committing suicide.”
’cause they are. And he did.
“’cause they are. And he did.
Because you’re a dumbfuck Nazi coward, I already knew that you’re fucked up in the head. No need for you to provide yet more evidence of that.
