I can’t believe I’ve been sucked back into social media. The whiplash of being amused by posts of librarians, authors, Canadians, and other smart people, to wanting to punch a wall while reading about the great American coup is tough on the body.

Is this higher or lower than “this is extremely troubling and concerning” level?

I hope Newsom keeps up the balls to the wall approach. Fuck ‘em all. And please hold our tax dollars hostage.

Then I want the state to keep my federal tax payments.

For the most part, I ❤️ Kaiser.

They get a pass because they’re not physically standing between the patient and doctor, just refusing to pay?

It’s okay that we refuse to pay for stuff because…
“Reviews occur after the service has been provided to the patient and does not result in any denials of care,” the statement said.

This is heartbreaking. I produced zero (that’s nada, nothing) milk and exclusively formula fed — I can’t imagine how many families/infants are up the creek right now.

I’m not sure one can quit a job one never had. That was the line, right?

He’s not really leaving.

Let’s stop calling them agents. What about “masked men wearing ICE vests similar to those that can be purchased by anyone on Amazon”

Thanks, Captain Obvious. What’s the plan?

His sentiments but there are very few improper nouns capitalized and commas are used correctly… there must be something really big coming if they want us talking about this again.

This made reading the entire article worth it:
“We were almost doing Mario Kart. Then we have to install bits on the car – maybe you can throw bananas around? I don’t know, slippery surface?”

Is it really up for debate?

Competition? More like a preseason, non-conference game where the stronger team ships in a weaker to kick its ass. There’s a possibility the guest could win but it ain’t statistically likely, especially when the guest went on a bender the night before and are hung over and puking in trash cans.

And because it’s impossible to do almost anything and not be told, “if you need to do [essential thing] you must download our app.”

That’s a cheap cup of hypothetical coffee.

“You really should call. We’ll promise to drop the kid off at the hospital before we turn you over to ICE who will then put you on a plane to South Sudan.”

It’s like the meme of the big fish chasing the tiny fishes, then it turns around and a huge school made up of the little fishes is chasing the same big fish. Except with the Dems the huge school has about 15 Nemos at any given time swimming off in fuck knows what direction.

If we can do it, Walmart could feel the pain really fast. Profit margins are thin and they rely on volume + POTUS telling them to eat the tariffs=huge, immediate impact.

Yowza. It would be frightening to have a bunch of J6 that close.

8647? I’m not sure it’s safe for anyone to type 8647. I could give you 8647 reasons why but there’s not enough space.

I read somewhere Walmart’s profit margins are razor thin. “Eating it” combined with a renewed boycott would be very not good.

Did these dummies really not expect Dems to divide and conquer that entire bill as soon as they got it in preparation of these hearings?

My favorite was (paraphrased) “one party of the two is a war criminal but it’s not our job to think about that right now.”

Thank you, NYT. Now in more news from six months ago…

Maybe Bribe Force Not-One because he hates not being in first place.

Because a party that trades in nuance so much it makes it too paralyzed to do anything, paradoxically has decided a mid-intelligence white dude spouting shit on their side will turn things around?

I *think* they’re the same bros who are going to have an “evening of conversation” with Tapper about his new book at one of the stops.

They’ve just got to wait for their federal subsidy socialist bailout check to come in the mail. That’s totally why I pay taxes. To bailout farmers while taking away food and healthcare from people.

That’s an interesting thing to be posting about while there are literal debates going on in your chamber now about whether Congress should kneecap the judiciary (GOP says yes), healthcare and food should be taken away from people (GOP says yes), the rich should get richer (GOP says yes)…

He was the only Dem senator who voted for that criminal jackass. They’re up against a fundamentally amoral group of lemmings AND THEY CAN’T MOUNT A PROPER OFFENSE OR DEFENSE on anything, even a diplomatic post. It’s symptomatic of a larger problem; that’s why we’re mad.

I absolutely cannot imagine how the world would have treated Clinton had she acted like this during the Benghazi farce.
