Good morning to each of you, individually.
- Happy Week Without Driving to all who celebrate. I am glad that I got rid of my car several years ago, now.
- You need a good reason, but more people should throw rocks at Seattle tech bros. Seriously though, what an asshole.
- Report any yellow legged hornets.
- Yay for primary elections.

‘nother!
S&P 500 rises to fresh record, Micron leads Nvidia and chipmakers higher
When Cenk Uyger and Ana Kasparian of “The Young Turks” are saying that Tucker Carlson is more of a journalist than Lulu Garcia-Navarro of “The New York Times,” strange things are afoot at the Circle-K!
(See TYT for 05/05/26 for the segment.)
Desperation shows its ugly face in many ways.

There is certainly precedent for this. After all, the least competent commentary on HA is from its oldest regular, a failed former attorney and perpetual useless, bloviating fool. Imagine how much more relevant HA would be had he been cut off from spews when he was only 54.
@ 2
Tucker Carlson will soon follow Nick Fuentes into the mainstream of the Democrat party. He’s already passed the Democrats’ primary litmus test: hatred of Jews and their mother country.
@1
Mmmmm…this Fidelity statement tastes great and is loaded with fiber.
Marist
80% say gas is squeezing their budgets.
61% disapprove Donald’s handling of economy
63%% the economy is not working for them
63% also blame Donnie for gas prices
What are the macros on beans and rice?
Happy Meal Duce crashing out at his press availability today, maternal health but not black maternal health which is abysmal compared to whites, over the WaPo report that the CIA has found little to no immediate damage to Iran’s economy from the Israeli and US attacks and the claim that they will last a minimum 3-4 more months (Ed’s. note, past all midterm primaries) before Iran starts to feel it and that 70% ish of their missiles are intact.
“Lies! Fake! I decimated Iran. They’re all dining on sand and rubble. Bitch!”
I am glad that I got rid of my car several years ago, now.
You’ll be a lot gladder when fuel rationing kicks in, which an energy investor says is about two weeks away (we’ll see if he’s right).

Meanwhile, now that we know what Iran’s peace terms are, it doesn’t look like Hormuz will reopen anytime soon.

P.S., that doesn’t sound like a regime that’s been obliterated, defeated, subjected, and is begging for mercy.
VT, you just don’t get it: Trump is doing the exact opposite of what he said was going to do during the 2024 campaign. He has embarked on yet another “forever war” with Iran (as the most recent “villain” in Trump’s world), he has set us up for a major recession with all the oil business, and he has to kowtow to Netanyahu because the Zionist Cabal has some serious Epstein dirt on his past behavior.
Trump is not the person for whom you voted, and you’re not savvy enough to see that.
That’s pretty unambiguous language. It looks to me like the Virginia Constitution places no limits or restrictions on this legislative authority, so long as the legislative processes that are also required are similarly adhered to.
Predictably we can now watch in awe and amusement as Republicans, including the lying troll, who have for the last 18 months threatened incessantly with rhetoric emphasizing the exercise of raw political power as a justification unto itself, suddenly switch to complaining about “fairness” and “respect”, and accompanying those complaints with threats of undefined payback “in the future”.
Fuck ’em. This is a war to preserve democracy.
You know if you offer a thing, say a cell phone, and you take deposits for when the thing is ready and then you announce the thing will never be ready and you spent all the deposits developing a thing, that’s a crime.
I can’t believe the very same people who stole the money from a veterans aid charity would do something like this.
But even more, people put down a deposit? Special kind of stupid. I’ll bet Dumbfuck is still checking the mailbox for his.

Is the moron leading our country this stupid? Yes, he is. For starters, I’m pretty sure the folks in Havana are onto his decapitation shtick and are taking precautions accordingly. And apart from the likelihood of getting bogged down in another unwinnable war, even more seriously, his threats against Cuba could lead to a second Cuban Missile Crisis, this time with a different outcome.

This is untrue.
You were just too dumb to pay attention. And like all the other Trump voters, you allowed your bigotry and lust for authority to selectively filter what you heard or read. Trump literally promised all of this shit many, many times. His touring show of outdoor and arena campaign public events featured stump speeches that emphasized all of this, from the occupying armies of federal goons attacking our communities, to the building and operating of huge human torture factories, to the massive explosion of the debt, to the gutting of healthcare, to the unrestricted military support for Israel in their response to the Oct 7 attacks. He repeatedly talked about attacking Iran on many occasions going all the way back to 2016.
Trump is exactly who the lying troll and all the other 77 million of Trump’s voters voted for last November, including the new war of conquest on behalf of Israel in the Persian Gulf.
@3 When you’re losing every argument, censoring your opponent is the last resort.
Given the shit Republicans are trying to pull, the Democrats should take nothing off the table.
@4 Rather more likely is the possibility you’ll be stuck with him as your 2028 nominee.

@12
You’re entitled to your fucked-up opinion.
@8 He gets it, all right. It’s not for nothing that “troll” is half of his screen name. He’s a TROLL, and when he posts, he’s TROLLING.
Trump had a hard-on for Cuba. He doesn’t have to do jack-shit about Cuba. They’re already a fucking commie cancer ward.
