  1. Wonder if the $250 bill would actually be used? More and more transactions are cashlesshese days.

  5. Da Bears raise a long overdue middle finger to the rapidly deteriorating city of Chicago.

    One less entity for Windy City pols to tax.

  6. the rapidly deteriorating city of..

  9. @6

    Chicago, Chicago, Chicago!

    But No Man Kills Wife, Man Kills Wife, Man Kills Wife.

    I wonder why? Hmmm, so hard to figure out.

  10. Ashley St. Clair is the elmo baby momma and former magat influencer who turned down the “gdp of a small nation” to refuse to be silent about elmo and the MAGAt cult she was a member of for nearly a decade.

    yeah she checks all the boxes: turning point, drumpf world consulting outfits..

    Here she is dishing over elmo texts with Hasan Piker:

    and revealing some cringe sh/sa shit about Madison Cawthorn:

    and lambastes kreepfuck herozero, shitforbrains Crowder:

    https://youtu.be/dKTE8vGtF_g?si=5lxe9V1Gyx7jetUu

    which contains juicy vid of Crowder abusing his ex wife. low-life..

    elmo is suing her for full custody of their son and claiming she is trying to “transition” him.. He’s maybe one year old.

    Now wait for it..

  20. One of Ashley St Clair’s vids recounts her relationship with a mid thirties magat low life when she was 20. He was a former Cali entertainment attorney but found it more fun to be a magat influencer on instagram.

    Also cheated on St Clair and a host of other girlfriends with a married w/ kids Congresswoman. I’ve seen either Boebert or Luna mentioned.

    Accused it of masquerading as a Jew and with its soft lawyer hands decorating its truck with mud to look more magat.

    Asswipe goes by dc_draino online. And guess who here has reposted its shit.

  27. Oh look, liddle assiwipe @ 26 names one of its 3 dog obedience schools after its fav gay tv talk show host.

    And a repuke of course.

    What a bidness, a passion really – for training “bitches”…

    yawwwn.. goes with the popgun stroking.

  29. 28,

    What a loon. Violent and misguided. Typical.

    My older brother was caught up in WTO just like the asswipe troll imagined. He was exiting the U.S. District Courthouse (pleadings) and trying to get to his car lugging three boxes of files.

    He got pepper sprayed by SPD.

    Oh, and the pleadings he was responding to were as defense council for SPD cops. I laughed in his face when he told me.
    Lay down with dogs…

  32. It’s 17 years later liddle maxiwipe and you’re still the silly junior high level shit poster..

    Remember when you couldn’t stop babbling “free stuff” after Obama won his second term?

    Gimme Gimme Gimme (2012-11-19)

    There it is in total. Never got over being expelled from its middle school for being an interminable shithead.

  33. And you’re still the silly cheapskate that can’t pay his bills without charging his own kids rent and renting out portions of his home to strangers. Father of the year move for sure…

    Hey, maybe McDotcom can rent out half your upstairs level…..after all, them bills gotta get paid!

  34. There are net takers in our society, and there are net givers

    We have established without a doubt that YLB and her family are without a doubt the former.

  35. Fat Hitler intends to attend game three at the garden.

    I’m not normally a big spectator of sport ball events. I’m actually organizing a watch party to enjoy and record the epic booing.

  36. Shorter: I don’t have much a life, so I’m gonna throw a party just to watch the prez at a basketball game. I’m not much of a host, so everyone will need to BYOB and food.

    Jesus Christ dude, can you be any more pathetic?

  37. For the sixth straight month the only asylum refugees accepted into the U.S. have been white, South African Afrikaners fleeing racial integration.

    One of the reasons for the booing this Monday night.

    Republicans elected themselves the white supremacist government they’ve been dreaming of since the the 1960s. And now everyone can see it.

  38. BYOB and food.

    Trigger warning: We’ll be taking over a large, fairly popular taproom with screens. Why the trigger warning? It’s trans owned – at least one of the partners. A very successful small hospitality group that also owns a popular craft brewery and a few boutique hotels. Beer isn’t my thing, really. But I’ll manage if I get to watch racist Nazis squirm.

    My tv isn’t nearly big enough for a spectacle like this. Cheers! I’ll try to remember to think about you too!

  40. Shorter: I don’t like sports, and I don’t like beer, but I’m hosting a party at a taphouse just to watch the prez at the NBA game. My life really is that lame and devoid of anything entertaining.

    Even more fucking pathetic. Nice own goal McD. Keep going, maybe you can own-goal a hat-trick.

    And no, not triggered. I don’t care if someone is trans, gay, or straight. Makes no difference to me. See, projection is all ya got.

    You want triggered? See what YLBs does when Asians move in next door….

  46. 40,

    It’s a school night for a slave like me.
    So I’ll try not to enjoy myself too much, if that helps you any. I can’t make any promises about the rest of the crowd. Someone is planning a Livestream. Would you like a link?
    You do seem a little lonely and grasping for attention here. Can you make it to Monday night?

  47. I don’t like sports

    Now see, that actually isn’t what I said. I really enjoy quite a few sports, and even one or two that involve balls. I’m just not into watching.

    Unlike you, I guess.

  48. lol.

    3 years playing Division 1 “sporty ball” trumps(!) your twice a week Pickleball(insert laughter here) “hobby”

    I’m gonna pass on your offer for the livestream. I will leave that to you losers. I’m sure you all gonna be rubbing one out with every boo for the prez(ya, fuck that guy too).

  49. @33 looks damn triggered. Yawwwn.. Again (for 17 years at least) it’s hung up on “takers”. When so many people on public assistance voted for both Romney and orange pants shitter.

    See what YLBs does when Asians move in next door….

    Spoken yet again like a junior high cheap shot puke.

    Have had Asian neighbors as long as I can remember. Nothing against neighbors of any ethnicity. My only objection was to absentee landlords and speculators.

    And it distinguishes itself yet again as a doormat for its adult children.

    And it looks down its nose at all dadus in Sedona. What a miserable asswipe.

  51. Talk about “takers”. What are tariffs but “taking” from importers so that those businesses pass on those “takings” to consumers?

    pants shitter wants to shovel 700 million toward coal plant operators for more coal electricity. That’s “taking” from liddle asswipe the taxpayer.

    pants shitter bought stakes in Intel and 4 other companies. That’s the government taking from liddle assiwipe to own “the means of production”.. Does assiwipe want to hang pants shitter?

    Now pants shitter is thinking of doing the same for AI outfits. Taking from liddle maxiwipe to make the few running the AI outfits rich beyond liddle assiwipes imagination.

    Does liddle assiwipe like elmo? He’s fucking rich, why not? Elmo’s IPO of SpaceX is a thinly disguised looting of index funds which workers buy into for their retirement. He’s gamed most of indexes to relax their profitability requirement. Fast tracking SpaceX into the indices expose retirement savers to way more risk as SpaceX is currently a money loser. Only holdout is S&P 500 for right now.

    Elmo has its own AI scam that is jonesing for pants shitter’s whim to use tax payer munee for yet more subsidy.

    Such an angry little pissant is liddle assiwipe. The perfect Dori Monson fan boi. yet another example of Dunning Kruger syndrome.

  53. 3 years playing Division 1 “sporty ball”

    No kidding?
    A or AA (assuming your playing was before 2006)?
    How many snaps? No injuries I hope. Did you juice? If you played in A you had to. Did your nuts shrink? What did you do about the acne? That would have been before Retin-A I think. Was there much scarring? Geez. That also would have been before the rule changes and the Snell standards for helmets. Headaches? Impulse control? Sleeping okay? Intrusive thoughts about suicide?

    Cool story, bro.

  54. Can’t wait for the sniping between Maddow and new co-host Pelley to begin.

    MAHER: “But I’ve seen ones that are not very favorable to the president… I don’t know if I would have noticed anything different if I hadn’t been reading about it.”

    “Companies change hands all the time… ‘Oh my God. 60 Minutes has a new cast!’ So does Saturday Night Live.”

  55. Father of the year move for sure…

    YLB and her family

    Triggered and addled by hate. Pour yourself another shot liddle inebriate.

  57. @34 workers are givers. They put far more into the economy than they take out. Workers create all the wealth. I, on the other hand, am a capitalist. In other words, a taker. I do no work, add no value, and contribute nothing to the economy; I just sit on my bunny ass watching my stocks go up, and cash dividend checks.

    Under our capitalist system, it’s much better to be a capitalist than a worker, which should be obvious from the fact they call it “capitalism.” Not only do capitalists get more of the money, but we also get lower tax rates! Nobody should work. Doing honest work for a living is a fool’s errand. Everyone should be a capitalist!

    It’s wrong, and full of moral hazard, but it’s the system we have.

  58. Double OT tonight with Vegas and Carolina.

    Stanley Cup hockey is the best thing ever.

  61. liddle maxiwipe @ 59 Everyone here laughs at your butt ignorance and your shit takes on everything..

    For 17 years we’ve been laughing at you. 17 years, same lame shit, different day.

    Centrist? “I don’t hate anybody?” What a joke.

  62. 60,
    Dude, I’m sorry. Seriously.

    I didn’t mean to trigger you and my questions were sincerely out of concern and not meant to belittle.

    Nothing but respect for you guys from that era. Y’all did what you had to do to play. No shame in that. You paid a steep price for a chance to compete. Legends who sacrificed for the game. I hope you are doing well.

  63. 57

    Capitalism has been the best economic system ever attempted. It has done more to lift us out of poverty than any other system.

  64. @61 He sounds jealous. It’s not my fault he’s stuck in a deadend minimum-wage job. He should’ve made better choices, starting with being born to rich parents.

  65. @63 Well, it’s certainly been good for me and lots of other undeserving folks, not so good for a lot of hardworking folks, and in the USA it’s been badly corrupted but still better than (1) feudalism, (2) socialism, and (3) communism. Plenty of room for improvement, though. America is a rich country and there’s no need for anyone to go hungry or be denied basic shelter and essential health care. We can afford to take care of our neighbors, so Republican meanness and selfishness is just that, a character flaw not driven by economic pressures.

    By the way, capitalism didn’t lift black people out of slavery. Slavery was a feature of early American capitalism. And today it’s not doing much for minimum-wage workers or people being kicked off Medicaid and food stamps so Republicans can spend that money on wars, tax cuts for themselves, and paying off Jan. 6 rioters.

  67. I get that Palestinians are a conquered people, and historically it’s been SOP for conquerors to seize conquered people’s lands, enslave them, exterminate them, etc. After all, we did it to Native Americans and Africans in our own history. But this is the 21st century, and modern nations shouldn’t behave like Vikings or Genghis Khan’s Mongols.

  72. If you want to drive conservatives insane, post more about the heterosexual Neanderthal virus. You’ll be doing the ladies in your life a big favor, and the rest of the ladies in the world a big favor.

    They desperately don’t want you talking about the HNV

  73. @70 You do the same man. Your work is too underappreciated here. Your time has definitely arrived.

  79. Good day people. Don’t forget to go to church today, all the White Christian Nationalists are there praying for you.

  80. Why did the Nazi Republican Party choose religion as their wedge? Because they don’t like the teachings of the Catholic church, so they decided to hijack religion and rob the banks of their constituents. Keeping them poor and dumb is all they have,

    They don’t like the Pope.

  81. In a civil war you kill your own kind. Just think of the good that will come from taking up the fight against the Heterosexual Neanderthal Virus. It’s not like you are attacking yourself because you’re a heterosexual, you will be attacking the enemy Neanderthal. This is a civil war. Use all the weapons in your tool belt.

    Tell The Fascist Mom’s against Freedom about the HNV. Don’t waste your time telling them that they are bad, mean hypocrites. Tell them that they are schilling for the Heterosexual Neanderthals in their lives. They want you to debate a book ban, a pride flag ban… don’t waste your time on the debate, flood them with how they protect pedophile Neanderthal heterosexuals.

    This is a fight, not a high school debate. Don’t go with the idiocy that is Pars.

  82. I’m shocked teh kreepfuck isn’t here to babble about its fugue state hallucination: that, TODAY, Joe is POTUS and Jill is first lady.

    At times halting and hard to understand, at other times yelling clearly at the top of his voice, he tore into the current occupant of the Oval Office and his “appalling vanity projects.”

    “My god,” Mr. Biden scoffed, “tearing down the East Room of the White House to make room for a ballroom more fitting of Versailles?”

    The crowd booed.

    http://archive.today/2026.06.0.....trump.html

    Yes, kreepfuck, Joe has lost it completely.

    Versailles? That’s a slap in the face to Versailles.

    Fitting of Doral is more like it. Give it up Joe.

    Take it away kreepfuck.

  83. Don’t fight with debate, turn the debate against them.

    Tell Nick Shirley, and the dude that recently burnt the pride flags, about the HNV. Fighting them with words about how they are bad isn’t productive, tell the hetero Neanderthal how his kind are violent women killers and rapists, and cop killers. It will shut him up and shut him down in a mere second, versus the non stop hours, and days of debating what he wants you to be debating. Debate him on what he doesn’t want to debate. Shut him the fuck up right away, if you want to be effective. He’ll be speechless and run back to his mommy.

  84. Guess what was the last day kreepfuck used “Welfare Queen”?

    yep..

    10/4/2025..

    That was some fucking spanking the next day..

  86. Mark your calendars, June 14th, UFC at my house. It’s going to be explosive!

    Grand slam of I need a Ballroom for security, staged event.

    We have top notch security, nothing can go wrong!

  87. In today’s news feeds I learned that Todd Blanche is not going to release the remaining 2.5 million pages of Epstein files, Trump told NBC’s Kristen Welker that Jan. 6 rioters should be paid with taxpayer funds, and DOJ has other ways to do it. There was also a suggestion that the $1.8 billion so-called “weaponization fund” might go entirely to Trump, his family, and his business entities.

  88. @79 Don’t forget to go to church today, all the White Christian Nationalists are there praying for you.

    No they’re not. They’re staking out plots in Heaven for themselves. And like the Israelis in Gaza and the West Bank, they’re taking the whole place for themselves. They don’t think there’s room for anybody else.

  89. @86 This is the most vulgar presidency in American history, surpassing even the vulgarity of the Nixon presidency.

    Looks like it’s in the doghouse again. SAD!

  102. 90 – And many, many people like this:

    “In Dandridge, Tenn., around 10 p.m. on June 4, a man watched as a Ford F150 pickup stopped on the street outside his home and backed up. A man then reportedly exited the vehicle carrying a sword and threatening to kill the homeowner. The homeowner grabbed a firearm he kept in his vehicle and shot the assailant dead.”

    Police said the suspect still had the sword in hand when they arrived and took possession of the body for an autopsy. (standardbanner.com; Jefferson City, Tenn.; 6/4/26)”

  106. @102,

    It was a machete instead of a sword.

    He was a landscaper trimming brush.

    The landscaper was a brown guy.

    The homeowner was white.

  109. Since when does an FCC chair insert himself into regulated entities’ personnel decisions?

    Brendan Carr, the chair of the Federal Communications Commission, slammed former CBS News correspondent Scott Pelley on Sunday for saying he did not expect his longtime employer to fire him.

    https://thehill.com/homenews/media/5914770-brendan-carr-scott-pelley-60-minutes/

    Since Trump, whose administration makes violating norms of acceptable conduct its standard operating procedure.

  110. Even a lawyer who defended Ken Paxton against impeachment thinks he’s a POS unfit for office.

    A lawyer who helped defend Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) during his 2023 impeachment trial has endorsed his opponent, state Rep. James Talarico (D), in Texas’s high-profile Senate race.

    https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5914758-paxton-talarico-texas-senate-race/

    That’s a no-brainer you don’t need a law degree to understand, though many Texas voters are still too stupid to understand it.

  112. Shorter MAGA Mike Jesus Johnson

    The evidence for rotor fraud is that we’ve been looking into it hard-core for 10 years and haven’t found a thing and that’s proof

    I’m not saying it’s rigged. Look, some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream it’s impossible to prove. But I think everybody knows instinctively that something is wrong here. And that’s a concern we need people to believe in the integrity of our election system (and that’s why I’m standing here talking to you about how there is no integrity even though I have no evidence)

  113. And that’s a concern we need people to believe

    He said a true thing without notes.

    They are so planning to overturn the results.

  114. The same Byron Allen who’s career highlight is helping host Real People circa 1979……lol, ya, wise choice network execs….

  115. @110

    They don’t actually care. the Byron Allen deal is basically an infomercial. That’s been his business model with this show when it was being aired on smaller local stations. He pays for the airtime and exchange car revenues go back to him. Because it’s an extraordinarily cheap show to produce so he makes money. CBS makes not nearly as much as they did with Colbert, but they still make something.

    From a broadcasting standpoint, a big three “Tiffany network” broadcaster is now selling their time for infomercials.

  116. so what other place in the world takes weeks-n-weeks-n-weeks to count votes?

    easy answer to all the voting BS: 1) ALL US citizens are given a voter ID card at no cost. 2)Create a national holiday for federal elections – everybody gets the day off to mosey on down to their local election center can cast a ballot. 3) Everyoen presents their voter ID card when casting a vote.

    If you are to lazy to do that, you dont deserve to vote anyway.
    Vote by mail ONLY for people who can demonstrate they cannot vote in person, IE overseas military, etc….

    Paper ballot ONLY – no computers.

    Its not fucking rocket science.

    Even if the current system has very little voter fraud, it lends itself to giving the appearance that crookery takes place. In this arena, appearances mean a lot. If the electorate is doubting the legitimacy of elections, even just due to appearances, then we have a problem as a nation.

  117. Never trust salesmen wearing bowties. And yes, MAGA Mike is a salesman. He’s peddling a false voting fraud narrative.

  118. Unserious People.

    ALL US citizens are given a voter ID card at no cost.

    And of course you can get this without taking any of your personal time and or paid time to do so. What are the odds Alabama and the like put the office to get one in white Republican neighborhoods AND as far as possible from public transit?

    Create a national holiday for federal elections – everybody gets the day off to mosey on down to their local election center can cast a ballot

    Do let us know when the Republican Party will tell the CEOs of Kroger, Starbucks, the Cheescake Factory, McDonald’s, Rite Aid, Madison Square Garden, Newsmax, CBS that they need to shut down every couple years for an entire day. Then let me know how that works with people in the hospital. Sorry you’ve gone into A fib we are all taking the day off to vote.

    If you are to lazy to do that, you dont deserve to vote anyway.

    If you’re too lazy to take an in-depth certification course for safety and marksmanship you don’t deserve the second amendment

    Vote by mail ONLY for people who can demonstrate they cannot vote in person, IE overseas military

    Sadly for you, the constitution also has something to say about this. It’s up to the legislatures of each individual state. In Washington and California and Oregon we proved beyond a doubt that mail in voting is 100% secure and greatly increases participation so we’re sticking with it. Thanks for trying. We traded instant results, which can’t be done with paper ballots either, for accuracy and participation.

    Quite literally advocating for any federal policy to govern elections is unconstitutional, but that’s never stood the way of Republicans.

  119. Even if the current system has very little voter fraud, it lends itself to giving the appearance that crookery takes place. In this arena, appearances mean a lot. If the electorate is doubting the legitimacy of elections, even just due to appearances, then we have a problem as a nation.

    Now do Clarence Thomas and Alito’s son.

    It’s a banger.

  120. How do you keep Manhattan and the other Burroughs loving you?

    When Donnie cancels the Knicks outdoor watch party commandeer the city’s Summer Outdoor Movies equipment and set up one in Bryant Park.

  121. @ 111

    How’s the CBS Late Show doing after replacing Stephen Colbert?

    Well, instead of the $40 million/year it was losing with Colbert, the new arrangement pays it $15 million/year for the time slot.

    So for CBS, it’s a $55 million flip. Do you want to hear the math again?

  122. Almost as if there has always been a plan:

    New details from Iran’s top diplomat about the strike that killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei provide some of the clearest evidence yet of the precision and strategy behind the joint U.S.-Israeli operation that launched Operation Epic Fury, counterterrorism experts said Sunday.

    The account, revealed by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in a new television interview, also highlights what analysts describe as a defining feature of President Donald Trump’s national security doctrine: using a decapitation strike against a hostile regime while simultaneously creating an off-ramp to end the conflict.

    “Well, the building we were sitting in was targeted, but the wing we were in remained intact while the other wing of the building was destroyed,” Araghchi said in an interview that aired June 4 on the Lebanon-based, Hezbollah-backed Al Mayadeen television network.
    …
    Mohammed, director of the Antisemitism Research Initiative at the Program on Extremism at George Washington University, added that if Araghchi’s account is accurate, this was Iran’s glaring acknowledgment of U.S. strategic capabilities.

    “They did not flatten a building; they took one wing and left the one next to it standing. That is President Trump’s whole doctrine in a single strike — he does not want a war of occupation, he wants to show the United States can reach the center of a hostile regime with precision and then offer it a way out,” Mohammed said.

    29 seconds https://x.com/greg_price11/status/2064057475863544005 of video, ending with Mussberger interviewing The Donald about the risks of courtside seats. “I know him, so, it’s OK.”

  127. Hakeem alleging that The Donald isn’t a Knicks fan requires a photo montage of The Donald’s changing hair style during his many attendances at Knicks games over the years.

    Schumer is weak, but he has been around long enough to know to leave this one alone.

  128. Over the weekend, there were no construction related motorizations of King County Metro Trolleybus routes, except for long term ones like the 2,12, and some 13 runs(some OCS improvements needed following completion of RapidRide G), 49(SR520 lid construction), and 70(RapidRide J construction). Usually the 1, 3, 4, 7, 10, 13(it’s through routed with the 2, and 4), 14, 36, 43, and 44 are replaced on weekends, and if it’s not a public entity requiring it, the construction company has to put up a $1000 deposit de-energizing a decentralized power distribution isn’t easy), plus there are some administrative oddities involved.(The routes are assigned out of Atlantic, but the Diesels are at Ryerson). Would like to see Metro suspend the dieselizations until the gas price volatility ends, but it would only be performative. Metro’s own fuel prices are locked in under the current procurement contract.

  129. @ 128

    Would like to see Metro suspend the dieselizations until the gas price volatility ends, but it would only be performative.

    Spewed with a straight face by a guy so in the tank for public transportation that he does not realize that the entire concept of public transportation is performative to the 85% of Seattleites who find it useless but get taxed to subsidize it nonetheless.

  130. @119

    Zero Hedge is also not source.

    In July 2025, as some critics of CBS’s decision to cancel “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” questioned the network’s motives, social media posts claimed the popular late-night show was losing at least $40 million per year.

    The claim appeared to stem from reports published by a media outlet called Puck and the New York Post on July 18. However, Snopes could not corroborate the reporting because it relied on information from anonymous sources.

    This whaddabout is 15 years old. Mamdani wasn’t old enough to drink in a bar then

    Solid post.

    1 – Nice excuse – people can take off for a dentist appt, but you think they cant do it once every decade for a voter card? Fuck, it can be taken care of when THEY GET THEIR DAMN DRIVERS LICENCE! Fuck off with that excuse.

    2 – Guy – even Boeing shuts down its operations for a week every year – pretty sure other companies can figure it out. Accommodations can be made for people with critical occupations. Fuck off again with that excuse

    3 – Completely unrelated – so fuck off for a 3rd time with that excuse.

    Cool, lets do nothing, and watch as voters on both sides of the aisle trust the system less and less. Lets see how that works out over the next few elections.

  133. Good job on those.

    Charles Oakley last played for the Knicks in 1998.

    Sitting with Marla could not have been betond 1999.

    That ‘fan’ allegedly with connections and cash to sit courtside has not been seen at a game in this millennium.

    Good Post

    However, Snopes could not corroborate the reporting because it relied on information from anonymous sources.

    Why in the hell would you need to ask Snopes about it when CBS itself just put out a statement confirming the $40M Colbert loss and the $15M Byron Allen payment for the time slot?:

    “We’re proud to partner with Byron Allen on a new business and programming model for late night that proactively addresses a network daypart that was cost prohibitive to continue,” the company said in a statement Thursday. “With this ‘time buy’ model, we have shifted an hour that was losing roughly $40 million annually to $15 million in profit — a $55 million swing.”

    Is there something about what CBS tells you that you don’t believe? Since Pelley’s not around now to be the one telling it, I mean.

    I haven’t been to Chávez Ravine in this millenium. Doesn’t mean I stopped bleeding Dodger Blue.

    Another strong ‘whaddabout’.

    Live roughly 1200 miles from dodger Stadium.

    Donnie Famously owns a building which was his primary residence until he called the city of New York a shit hole a distance of what normal people say is walking from Madison Square Garden.

    Good post

    The Dodgers play in a shithole city.

    They are still the Dodgers.

    I do not doubt that to The Donald the Knicks are still the Knicks, even as NYC chooses to drown in its own shit.

  141. @138 Sez the troll who lives in a shithole town on a shithole island and fucks an old nag in a shithole barn.

  142. @ 139

    Hops celebrates what he thinks is a win.

    Of course, his tranny Cop City terrorist is still dead and deserved to get shot in the balls by LE, but …

    Hops knows nothing but weakness.

  144. @140

    For about two decades, Donnie Next-door to the Knicks. Never attended a game. that’s not a fan.

    Unless you’re making an argument that had you lived in Echo Park for 20 more years you would have never gone to dodger Stadium.

  145. So, this booing of Donald Trump has staying power, amirite? People will chant it at SEC games for years to come, amirite?

  147. @118 Voting by mail also saves Washington taxpayers millions of dollars, because we don’t have to pay thousands of pollworkers.

  148. @135

    Broke that down for you when they made the claim.

    Owned the building since the Ed Sullivan show was on the air No rent. There was probably a line item in the show’s budget where a CBS show was paying CBS rent on the theater strictly as a means of making it look like the show is not profitable.

    The tech was installed and (digital) during the Letterman years so only minor upkeep and occasional replacement of parts. Have been no “makes you need to replace the cameras” innovations since digital and HD in the early to mid 2000s

    Advertising rates are public.

    It is nearly impossible for that show to lose money unless half the slots are PSAs and network programming promos which it wasn’t.

    Funny how during the sale and negotiations for sale that information was not part of the public and required SEC filings .

    To put it in terms, you might be able to understand. Fox the corporation always claimed that the Dodgers lost money. That was highly dubious, but MLB doesn’t release that kind of information. At the time the Dodgers were one of the few teams that owned their Spring Training, stadium, parking lots in famously transit lacking part of the city, and concessions.

    the Dodgers, as the flagship programming of Fox Sports West (later Fox Sports One then just Fox Sports) and with the share of the TV revenue that MLB was paying to Fox to air their own team, no, the Dodgers were not losing money.

    If the Dodgers, as a solo entity were losing money, it was merely because they were paying those losses directly to their corporate ownership.l in a tax avoidance scheme.

    Also worth noting for a transphobe. ‘Harry Potter, and the order of the Phoenix’ is thought to be the all time champ of fake accounting in the entertainment business. The film had a production and advertising budget of $167 million and took in almost $1,000,000,000 at the box office. It shows up on Warner Bros. tax information as an operating loss. And that’s not even touching the merchandise

  149. @119 It would help if Republicans stopped lying about voting fraud and rigged elections.

  150. @121 In other words some fool is paying $15 million to CBS to air an infomercial nobody watches. That doesn’t sound like a sustainable business model to me.

  151. @122 I don’t suppose it occurred to Trump that when you make war personal by targeting foreign leaders, they may reciprocate.

    So far two of Trump’s followers have attempted decapitation strikes, but that was purely domestic.

  152. @129 Said with a straight face by a troll who’s ignoring ridership data like this:

    Seattle’s regional light rail line recorded an unprecedented 155,000 daily boardings, the highest recorded anywhere in the United States, according to an article in Streamline.

    https://www.planetizen.com/news/2026/06/137746-seattle-light-rail-shatters-national-ridership-records-155000-daily-rides

    And living on a lonely island, the dumbfuck troll doesn’t realize that Seattleites who drive benefit from others riding because that’s less traffic congestion.

  154. @150

    It’s a national broadcast. You can get dick pills, structured settlements and local auto body shops to pay $100/30 secs and clear $100m a year.

    But it devalues the CBS brand in the process.

  155. How do you turn Missouri Blue by November.

    Go after national treasure Dolly Parton, education and children’s literacy all at the same time.

    The Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education recently announced it would freeze enrollment in Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, a literacy initiative that offers one free book per month for children from birth until five years old. More than 20 states provide full or partial funding for the program, which claims to have donated over 300 million books to kids in the U.S. and elsewhere. The beneficiaries includes 170,000 Missouri children, but the state’s Republican-dominated legislature decided to cut the program’s funding from $6 million to $2 million.

    Q: Have you been able to tour around Los Angeles?

    A: Yes.. this is a phenomenal state and this is such a beautiful city.

    The last time Donnie accepted a $25k place to. Sleep for an hour Jeffrey Epstein set it up.

  160. File under ‘Don’t Comply in Advance’

    Plaintiffs file suit and seek class certification against Todd Blanche, DOJ and Stanford Hospital for HIPAA violations related to the release of their medical records on the demand of the Trump Administration.

    These include but are not limited to gender care patients.

    Seems Stanford coughed up more patient records than previously assumed.

  161. Cool. It’s all over the interwebs now. Fox News chose to ‘enhance’ the audio of Trump on the Jumbotron with chants of “USA!”

    Sounds not heard by anyone in the arena. Sounds not caught on the live broadcast. Sounds not heard on any of the thousands of live streams and social media posts from people in attendance.

    You know why I got that? Because you have no credibility. Your elections are crooked and you’re crooked, and Meet the Press is crooked. And so is ABC and CBS and CNN. You’re a one-sided crooked network.”

  162. Not even remotely how filing with the court works.

    Trump’s lawyers in his BBC suit just told the court they didn’t file their response to the BBC’s motion to dismiss on June 5 when it was due b/c the protective order and the court’s sealing rules were too complicated for them. But, they say they did get it to the BBC’s lawyers on June 5.

  163. Even more court fun…

    Donnie has refiled his case against WSJ that was previously dismissed over the ‘defamation’ on reporting that he penned a love note boob and pussy doodle to Jeff Epstein for his birthday.

    Thus assuring that several more news cycles of ‘Donald Trump wrote a love note boob and Pussy doodle’ to Jeffrey Epstein for his birthday’ stories between now and November.

  164. @130 & 135

    I call your attention to the very same people now agreeing with the unsourced claims approving the spiking of a vetted, research’ed ready to air story about…

    1. CECOT
    2. Minneapolis

    Or are you thinking Bari doesn’t have to get sign off from higher up?

    Let’s play two lies and a truth.

    Dumbfuck

  167. The boos were deafening.

    Hearty cries of “Fuck Trump” filled the air.

    The grampa napping was hillarious.

    The ketchup stains ran down gilded wallpaper like MAGA tears.

    It was glorious.

  168. Fat Hitler publicly rebuked Bibi.

    While behind the scenes he was secretly groveling and acquiescing to Bibi’s demands that he order “boots on the ground”.

    Now 600 elite paratroopers are poised to be tossed into an Israeli incinerator to advance Israel’s demands for imperial conquest. And here at home gas climbs past $5 a gallon and America has to shop for Great Value brand wieners made with pork bung and floor sweepings.

  169. Fox News text version.

    President Donald Trump received a massive reaction from a sold-out crowd at Madison Square Garden for Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs on Monday night.

  171. Speaking of Israel, yesterday was an important anniversary that went unobserved by the Fat Hitler klown kar.

    Yesterday, June 8, marked the 59 year anniversary that the state of Israel launched Mirage and Super Mystères jet sneak attack on the mostly unarmed USS Liberty, a technical research and electronic surveillance vessel sailing in international waters north of the Sinai peninsula. The attack lasted for nearly half an hour and included dropping napalm bombs on the superstructure of the unarmed vessel and a follow up attack by torpedo boats that fired torpedoes, cannons, and machine guns. Of the 358 crew compliment, 34 sailors were killed and 171 sailors were wounded. After breaching the hull with torpedoes the Israeli aircraft fired upon and sank the life boats as the crew attempted to deploy them.

    The chief council to the subsequent naval board of inquiry swore an affidavit stating that the board was ordered by President Johnson and Sec Def Robert McNamara to rule the attack “accidental”. Israel has never accepted responsibility for the attack itself nor the obvious war crimes it committed during the attack.

  172. And the answer is: “37”

    “What is the number of times that Sleepy Fat Hitler has announced that he had reached a peace deal with Iran since he inexplicably launched a war with them over three months ago.”

  173. @ 171

    Yesterday, June 8, marked the 59 year anniversary that the state of Israel launched Mirage and Super Mystères jet sneak attack on the mostly unarmed USS Liberty, a technical research and electronic surveillance vessel sailing in international waters north of the Sinai peninsula.

    An honest spew would also point out that June 8 was roughly the midpoint of the Six Day War. And that at the time Israel was in the middle of a war against Egypt, Syria, and Jordan. And that while in conflict against three nations sworn to its annhilation, IAD misidentified a US vessel – a US spy vessel – as Egyptian, which resulted in its attack.

    Israel has never accepted responsibility for the attack …

    Israel apologized soon after and made three payments, totaling around $12 million, as compensation for the families of the dead and injured, and for the damage to the Liberty.

    Other than that, Elijah …

  174. @ 169

    President Donald Trump received a massive reaction from a sold-out crowd …

    And the NASCAR fans surely were chanting, “Lets Go Brandon!”, as told to us by a reporter from NBC.

  176. @ 172

    … has announced that he had reached a peace deal with Iran …

    No word yet on how much Iranian land DJT47 has offered to hand Israel in order to cease hostilities and “avoid a protracted war”:

    Joe Biden Offered Vladimir Putin 20 Percent of Ukraine to End War: Report

    According to the newspaper, the proposal offered “around 20 percent of Ukraine’s territory”—approximately the size of Ukraine’s eastern Donbas region.
    …
    According to the news outlet the German politicians said Biden wanted to avoid a protracted war in Ukraine, and so, offered the territory as part of the peace plan.

    I’m thinking handing off the 20% that includes the land bordering the Strait of Hormuz would work. If only Biden was still in office to make the offer.

  177. SPLC under the microscope in the House today:

    MLK Jr.’s Niece, Dr. Alveda King, just EVISCERATED the Democrat scheme to prop up fake race hoaxes through the SPLC’s funding of hate groups!

    “I am troubled by the conduct and messaging of organizations that claim to fight hatred while profiteering from division…serious questions about the Southern Poverty Law Center.”

    “We do not need more lists that place citizens under suspicion because they hold sincere beliefs about faith, family life, or public policy.”

    Libbies love it when they can trot out a King relative to speak before the cameras.
