– Look, if I had my way the iconic Seattle building would be the Smith Tower, not the Space Needle. It’s better located as part of the city and just looks better. But recognizing that that ship has sailed, the new Sounds crest is pretty rad.

– Green Jacket Lady 2025.

– You don’t have to stop biking just because it’s raining.

– Starbucks’s anti labor bullshit was anti labor and bullshit, judge finds.

Anyway, please wash your hands right now and get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

    Yesterday we enjoyed the babbling dipshittery of the Republican Chair of the House Ways and Means impeachment inquiry:

    Today, enjoy Farmer Jim bumbling his way to desperately protecting his committee from a roll call over some of the witnesses they can’t afford to have testify in public:

    Which no doubt gave the other unserious twat a very bad day. Sadly, for our troll today got off to an equally bad start.

    At the ceremony to honor General Milley, when he spoke, he gave very high praise to our nation’s president and vice-president.

    Ouch!

    He did get around to the guy the troll came out for the other day. Speaking of the oath being given solely to our nation’s constitution, at the end of a litany of those to whom the oath is not given he closed with, “dictators and wanna-be dictators“.

    Ouch!

    Well we have our first post second GOP debate pull out and our babbling moron will be forced to tell us that a 51 point lead is similar to 2012.

    Trump 61%
    DeSantis (2nd) 12%
    Everybody else single digits

    So, is everyone resigned to the republicans shutting down the government until President Biden is impeached and LGBTQ people are put in camps?
    How long do you think it will last?

    Watch our greatest US Senator dismantle a nominee Biden never should have put forward:

    https://youtu.be/IFV8hp69EpE?feature=shared

    Hey, I’m sorry this makes Biden look bad. And for all our sakes, I’m sorry that this is happening at a time when his approval numbers are down. But we are Democrats. We are better than this.

    And whichever the fuck one of Biden’s domestic policy team ran this guy’s name to the top of their list should be fired yesterday. And not because the failed to vet the conflicts. But because they pointedly chose to ignore them after the Senator brought them to their attention. This fucker’s nomination should have been withdrawn weeks ago and it never should have been allowed to move forward far enough to produce this video clip.

    You don’t play chicken with a U.S. Senator.

    I’m talking directly to you, Neera Tanden. This is bush league bullshit. You trashed your boss’s bona fides in order to flex. There are better, more nuanced, and more pracitical ways of acheiving desired outcomes. I hope you have to eat a mile of shit on your way to kissing Biden’s ass if you keep your job. But I think he ought to use the excuse to dump the last of the Clinton apologists.

    Sincere congratulations to California’s newest public servant, US Senator Oprah Winfrey!

    Wonder how a government shut down impacts Federal monies to help prevent salt water running up the Mississippi River?

    Hahahahahaha.

    I’m a liberal, right Bob – I take pleasure in knowing that people won’t have drinking water…..if they live in Mississippi.

    Ah yes, the joys of Seattle transit!

    Random hammer attacks, stabbings, junkie warz, human puke and shit, needles, fenty, and the wonderful smell of meth wafting through the air….

    I mean, what’s not to love!! And it only costs billions to do.

    Who was President then? Who dominated Congress? What was done about rising health care premiums?

    2010: $14k
    2012: $16k
    2014: $17k

    Yes, this country spends so much on health care and gets so little in return.. Other well to do countries laugh at us..

    More good news for Bidenclown, RFK Jr. expected to withdraw from Demorat race.
    ——————
    Robert F. Kennedy Jr. plans to run as an Independent, leaving the party synonymous with his last name.
    “Bobby feels that the DNC is changing the rules to exclude his candidacy, so an independent run is the only way to go,” a campaign insider said.
    According to Mediaite, he will first run some ads criticizing the DNC for trying to stop him from competing in the primary with Joe Biden.

    Demorat-Pfizer Party Of Vax Mandates & Chickenhawk Warmongers News –
    Steele dossier ‘23 up Bidenclown’s ass.
    ——————
    In a June 30, 2020, FD-1023 form, a highly-trusted FBI Confidential Human Source revealed Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky believed he could pay Joe Biden and Hunter Biden $5M each for influence.
    Per the FD-1023:
    According to the FBI’s confidential human source, executives for Burisma, a Ukrainian gas company, brought Hunter Biden on the board to “protect us through his dad, from all kinds of problems.” At the time, Burisma was seeking to do business in the United States, but was facing a corruption investigation in Ukraine, led by then-Ukraine Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin. Regarding that investigation’s impact on its ambitions in North America, Burisma CEO Mykola Zlochevsky reportedly said, “Don’t worry Hunter will take care of all of those issues through his dad.” Zlochevsky reportedly stated that he had to pay $5 million to Hunter Biden and $5 million to Joe Biden, an arrangement he described as ‘poluchili,’ which is Russian crime slang for being “forced or coerced to pay,” according to the document.

    Rudy Giuliani.

    Now a disbarred alcoholic facing a half dozen lawsuits and criminal indictments who is even being sued by his own lawyers for defrauding them.

    Quite a “highly trusted” star witness you have.

    They have so much water up north that these dry canals of yours could be filled and you’ll be very happy. We can water your forests so you don’t have these fires.

    So…you’re going to build some kind of canal or pipe system to get water from I don’t know, the Western part of the Pacific Northwest down to southern Southern California and then build some kind of Rainbird sprinkler system to water the nearly 7 million acres of Los Padres, Angeles, Cleveland and San Bernardino National forests?

    Really, that’s a thing you think is doable?
