Friday Open Thread

– Man, close the market to cars. It’s so past time.

– And hey, let’s make the transition levy better for trips that aren’t by car.

– Given what she wants to do with it,, it’s probably a blessing that Ann Davison is bad at her job (second item).

– New parks, new parks, new parks.

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

    From July 2023 to February 2024, the DNC paid $1.05 million to Bob Bauer PLLC — the professional limited liability company for Biden’s lead attorney, Bob Bauer.

    Starting last July, the DNC increased its monthly payments to law firm Hemenway & Barnes from $15,000 to $100,000.

    Hur ultimately declined to pursue charges against Biden.

    Cool. Works for me.

    One is a Congressional investigation political sideshow involving the sitting president being waged between two of the three branches of government.

    The other is trying to get a lying adulterous man slut off from making illegal payments to keep his mistress quiet in a civil court.

    RNC donors deserve to pay for the criminal and civil defense costs for the stealing and selling of classified defense secrets after leaving office, defrauding New York citizens for ten years before taking office, and campaign finance fraud with a porn star before entering office

    Interesting SCOTUS decision.

    Supreme Court Justices Warn People Not to Take Ruling Too Far

    I’ve paid impact fees. They’re OK when they’re specifically targeted, as in “we have a traffic signal going in there in 2 years, and this assessment pays for part of that because your driveway benefits by traffic control allowing your patients to exit without having to wait longer than 90 seconds.”

    They’re not OK when they come off as a shakedown. “We want a $60k traffic mitigation fee. No, we’re not going to mitigate anything with it.”

    Let us be reminded that teh kreepshit troll of widbee, is pulling the lever in November for a bloated, incontinent, oranged-tinted fascist under multiple indictment who off gasses a putrid odor.

    To desperately avoid an IRS audit and for desperate want of another tax cut.

    We throw around the word fascist a lot here. It behooves us to remind ourselves what that means..

    Mussolini was a fascist – coined the word even.. Fascism is extreme nationalism.. Mussolini gained power by calling leftists and centrists “traitors” to Italy. It was easy to do this when Italy gained almost nothing by being on the winning side in WWI.

    When Mussolini gained power he wanted to restore glory to Italy as it had during the Roman Empire by conquering Ethiopia. With American support (being fearful of Italian communists) Italy’s war machine fueled by American oil invaded Ethiopia and conducted an air campaign using chemical weapons.. The following is a quote from a red cross worker in Ethiopia:

    The patients were a shocking sight. The first I examined, an old man, sat moaning on the ground, rocking himself to and from, completely wrapped in a cloth. When I approached he slowly rose and drew aside his cloak. He looked as if someone had tried to skin him, clumsily; he had been horribly burned by “mustard gas” all over the face, the back and the arms. There were many others like him: some more, some less severely affected; some newly burned, others older, there sores already caked with thick brown scabs, men and women alike, all horribly disfigured, and little children, too. And many blinded by the stuff, with blurred crimson apologies for eyes.

    So Mussolini with American support had his conquest of Ethiopia and what did he do? Gloated giving a speech of course:

    Finally, Italy has its empire.. a fascist empire, an empire of civilization and of humanity for all the peoples of Ethiopia.

    I take this from this video about the origins of WWII.

    https://youtu.be/d2uyH6cMNb4?si=BgTc31iwbeuJAnLe

    Why did this youtuber who has done videos about ideologies from Marxism to postmodernism to liberal democracy, why do this video that took him 5 months to produce?

    Easy. It goes into great detail about the rise of Hitler and Mussolini.. What they did and how they did it. The video is a warning about the consequences of unchecked worldwide authoritarianism.

    The parallels with the bloated, orange tinted, flatulent, malodorous wannabe dictator that our kreepshit troll supports for want of a tax cut are too scary.

    According to a report in Axios Friday morning,

    “President Biden used campaign donations to help pay his legal bills last year during the special counsel’s probe into his handling of classified documents.”

    To its credit, Axios noted that the legal bill payments, “made through the Democratic National Committee, are at odds with the Biden campaign’s recent attacks on Donald Trump for spending his campaign funds on legal fees.”

    Just recently, the finance chair for Biden’s re-election bid appeared on MSNBC and pledged

    “every single time” someone donates to Biden 2024, “we’re going straight to talk to voters”

    and

    “not spending money on legal bills or hawking gold sneakers.”

    Don’t be DUMB and dead – forgo the vax. Go ahead and wash your hands . . . and mouth.

    Sea Dragons were Seattle’s spring football team, got erased in the merger of the USFL and the XFL. Although they said if successful this year, might be back next year.

    “Hundreds of armed Israeli settlers stormed a village in the occupied West Bank on Friday, setting fire to several homes and cars in one of the largest attacks by settlers this year, according to Palestinian officials. … The settlers attacked the village, raided homes, and fired guns at residents …. Videos obtained by CNN show parts of the village burning, with smoke billowing over several buildings and settlers lobbing rocks. Houses and cars are seen completely burned up ….”

    When Palestinians do this kind of thing, they’re called terrorists.
