  1. A certain news personality in the US known for her progressive views says there are two questions that should never be asked: - if someone says they just came back from a fishing trip, DO NOT ask them if they caught any fish; - NEVER ask a woman if she's pregnant. I don't understand this at all: why would they ask, and why would it matter. Abortion is not illegal by Federal law (nor California state law). Roe defined abortion as a right, and that right is gone. But do they ask this of all females entering the country? One of the things they do is try to get you to talk (and not just the US): trying to detect foreign accents, and trying to see if you're nervous about something. If we're too nice or too chatty it'll trigger suspicion. Myself, I amp up the NYC accent. Rude and confrontational will make for a memorable experience. While it never happened to me, there have been lots of word-of-mouth stories of guys returning from LOS having their digital cameras, phones, computers, USB drives etc. examined, over the past 20 years or so, agents looking through their photos. Looking for evidence of naughty encounters. Be careful of the female customs agents. Even if you have nothing to hide it's the time and annoyance.
  2. At least Biden didn't do the sword dance. But maybe they save that for the Republicans.
  3. It's good to see there was some kind of watchdog on that monkey business they pulled on Medicare premiums last year. I wouldn't expect a GOP administration to do anything about it. https://www.aarp.org/health/medicare-insurance/info-2022/medicare-keeps-part-b-premium.html
  4. MBS wants to be cool. A fist bump is not new, but out there the times are a few decades behind (by conservative estimate). It's like the high-five with Putin. Should Biden have snubbed the fist bump? The same people criticizing it now would have declared it a diplomatic disaster either way. And how come all these guys have such small hands? [did you notice that yellow-haired head taking it all in?]
  5. That's two (2) DT case-related coincidences reported in one day. And the hits just keep on comin'!
  6. Do you believe in coincidence? Deposition of Trump, 2 children delayed after Ivana’s death Former President Donald Trump and two of his children got their questioning postponed Friday in a New York civil investigation into their business dealings, a delay that follows the death of Trump’s ex-wife Ivana. Hey. I'm just asking!
  7. Their job is to protect POTUS. They did things to keep him from being indicted/convicted, hence protecting him. How's that for a nuanced job description? If the Secret Service did this for a non-Republican POTUS the likes of Fox, OAN and Newsmax would be shouting in unison "fly, monkeys, fly!" At least they got rid of messages in a way that didn't clog the toilets. Trump Clogged White House Toilets By Flushing Documents
  8. Will Lieutenant Columbo investigate?
  9. Stolen erection: the moment you realize the lady you brought home isn't
  10. Blame whoever it was that put the pole there, him no good!
  11. The enemy of my enemy is my friend When that mutual enemy is vanquished is the time to be very, very weary of your "friend." As for Ms Cheney I see her as the force behind the committee, she's going at it GOP style: you did it, we know you did it, and we're gonna nail your _ss. Those addendums she puts at the end of the televised sessions is making an impact that gets their own commentary in the media, with her few sentences making as much news as the rest of the session. That is what I mean by GOP style. Democrat style is wringing of hands and saying "ooo, they're not supposed to do that!" and go back to sitting on their thumbs (don't ask for samples, just look back over the past six years and see for yourself). Like the GOP renegades in the Lincoln Project who took on DT in 2020 put it: we're doing it because the Dems won't. When a Dem emerges with a such a show of spine they are culled by their own party, one way or another. Bring back Al Franken! I do wish Garland would resign and someone who is active becomes AG. I suspect he, too, is afraid of the GOP, just like Comey and Mueller; I am not any sort of insider, but I suspect this cowering is part of the DOJ culture. I suspect that the committee sees it in a similar way, and they are holding back passing info on to the DOJ because it just might get compromised. As for having an understanding of the inner workings of the US Gov't never forget who Liz's father is. No one is afraid of the Democrats. Adam Schiff? Even his dog is not afraid of him, when I hear him speak I anticipate he's going to go into a sales pitch about life insurance. As for the coming GOP presidential primaries expect a first-class dog fight.
  12. I don't know if this product is sold interntionally: WD40 If available it's at least worth a try. It has a reputation for miracles. Also works for removing unremovable glue. https://www.instagram.com/wd40thailand/
  13. Used these guys for a while, all positive. https://www.earthclassmail.com
  14. Hey, give them a break, it's a change from "stolen election" and the other lunacy.
  15. If he was they could force his mom to take his phone away.
  16. Waiting for Fox to tell them what to think. Or give them "whatabouts." The might have to parry with the worn tropes, like cow farts and pizza parlor basements.
  17. Let's not ignore the cherry-bomb at the finale Liz Cheney: Committee informed DOJ that Trump attempted to contact a witness not yet seen in the hearings Oh wait, the DOJ. Nevermind.
  18. But with BoJo's statement that he'll remain in #10 until a new PM takes the position isn't it in his interest to delay that from happening? Of course he would say he'd never do that, that's his style.
  19. This might be a brilliant strategy, but I don't think so.
  20. OK, here it comes, can't have a thread about an Indian tourist without it. Then the wife says "and what has become of your gold chain?"
  21. Y'know how with some dogs the only thing that gets their attention is food? DT is that way when it comes to $$$. The stupid melts away right quick. Trump’s new money-maker: Political speeches to fans Who knows, he could expand it to include jugglers, lion tamers, women sawed in half, etc. Maybe Leon could do a little rocketship thing.
  22. The sick part of these stories is the sucker will still defend DT, claiming it was those slimy grifters who did it, not he. This seems to be the gist of Kellyanne's latest book as well.
  23. Rather than plea I think Rudy would do a "Vinnie the Chin" where he puts on a bats-in-the-belfry performance. (There is an old "Law & Order" episode with a character based on him.) https://mafiahitters.com/vincent-the-chin-gigante-the-oddfather-chronicles/ DT wouldn't do that, too vain. But wouldn't it be a hoot if his kids and his wife of the moment got together and had him committed to the loony bin! Lindsey I can't tell, the Dixie White guys live on their own planet.
