A REAL Commercial I Saw On TV JUST NOW!
I will say no more about it. Just watch. You will not be disappointed:
Trump is done, and that’s ok
I get that we’re nervous about declaring Trump political dead after he having declared him dead so many times in the past. But, trust me. I’m the one person who was right about his chances of beating Hillary Clinton, so I have some standing. He is politically dead. Or if you don’t trust me, trust […]
Comment Rescue – Does the Democratic Party Ever Lead on Anything?
This is a question from a new commenter – John D Sykes. It is a good one and one that we forget to ask: (O)utside of registration and voting, do the Party leaders activate our rank and file to take public stands on issues such as the state’s climate action plan? I’m thinking of instances […]
Inflation Hawk Logic
We still need to raise interest rates to curb the demand for houses and cars, in order to slow overall economic growth, and increases unemployment. That will in turn reduce demand across the economy, and potentially lower prices on household staples. And if raising rates doesn’t accomplish that it will at least impoverish people and […]
I’d say Trump’s campaign for Pres is going pretty good
Trying to come up with something that is utterly worthless but can be sold to suckers for $99.00 is no small feat. It takes a campaign/business genius to pull that off.
The Best Sam Bankman-Fried/FTX Explainer Ever
If you need the Sam Bankman-Fried/FTX crimes explained, Atrios has the best explainer. He (Sam Bankman-Fried) took something that was nothing but fraud to begin with (crypto) and then just stole all the money! It was all fraud! Really the entire thing was: 1) Get rich VC guys who high on their own farts and […]
Musk’s Twitter Debacle Spreads to Tesla – Who could have predicted this?
People in the market for a $60,000 battery-powered MAGA hat should wait a few more months when the price drops another $10k or so. Take a look at this chart comparing the cost of a used Tesla to other luxury car brands. The decline in the car’s value could be attributed to a number of […]
Trump-y Minnesota Town Discovers Socialism – End of World Nigh
City leaders in the small town of Warren knew they needed to do something when the number of in-home day cares dwindled to three, and the only day care center in town was full and still struggling financially. “So as community leaders we said, ‘OK, we need to sit down and we need to dig […]
Not Exactly Breaking News – Texts Show GOP Efforts To Overturn 2020 Results!!
It looks like the media is breathlessly covering this story as if nobody knew that the entire GOP (except for VP Mike Pence and two other Republicans) was engaging in trying to overturn the 2020 election and install Trump as Lord Protector. Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows texted with at least 34 […]
DL Open Thread Wednesday December 14 2022
McCarthy can be speaker only if he promises the Freedom Caucus that he will perform his duties with a cocked gun pressed to his temple.
Kevin McCarthy Still Wants to Be Speaker for Some Reason
The House Republican Conference is still entrenched in an internal war over whether to reinstate an arcane rule that would empower any member to bring up a vote to oust a speaker at any time.
The bitter divide is only heating up and has emerged center stage in House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy’s quest for 218 votes to win the position. For McCarthy’s backers, the so-called motion to vacate is seen as little more than a promise of hostage taking, a tool that could be used by the right flank to hamstring McCarthy’s ability to lead the conference and effectively govern.
Good. Now Do Roe v Wade & Gun Safety
WASHINGTON (AP) — A celebratory crowd of thousands bundled up on a chilly Tuesday afternoon to watch President Joe Biden sign gay marriage legislation into law, a joyful ceremony that was tempered by the backdrop of an ongoing conservative backlash over gender issues.
“This law and the love it defends strike a blow against hate in all its forms,” Biden said on the South Lawn of the White House. “And that’s why this law matters to every single American.”
American Business Fundamentals in 2022
Rule 1: Borrow so much money that your creditors have no choice but to become co-conspirators. Rule 2: Fuck people over with abandon, Nice Framing Elon is “cutting costs” the same away a shoplifter is “cutting costs” but that doesn’t get covered in precisely that way.
