  1. Well, when all is said and done, this whole media event means nothing. Consider this Tucker's Al Capone's Vault event. Media made a big whoop-dee-doo about it back then.
  2. Is this a setup for a Polish joke? Hey, did you hear about the Polish guy who robbed a supermarket? Instead of robbing the money he took groceries.
  3. Or as Hannity said of himself "I never said I was a journalist." It looks like that would be true of the whole Fox prime time lineup.
  4. State Department should give him a few hours on the hot seat when he returns to the country (private jet? if so who foots the bill?). When he goes on the media to denounce them the response is "just keeping our border safe, sir. An important issue with you, is it not?" Remember James O'Keefe? He went down to the RIo Grande to make a mockery of the border patrol and he got busted. wah-wah
  5. Just what, personally and specifically, does this guy hope to accomplish?
  6. He kept out of politics for a long time, I recall Warren Beatty saying he wanted to get Bruce involved back in the '00 decade. He gave a free concert the day before the 2016 election in Philly (well, that's almost New Jersey) to support Hillary. Can't say he didn't try. John Voight is the one that surprises me, he had some quite sympathetic roles back when (Midnight Cowboy, Conrack, a crippled Viet veteran in Coming Home (contains a rug-munching scene with Jane Fonda)). Maybe he's doing it to spite his daughter.
  7. Since 2015 DT has been looking for big star endorsement. Probably the best he got was John Voigt (who? He's Angelina Jolie's father, and he won an Oscar in the 1970s). A slap in the face for him, even GHW Bush got the 1980s action-movie stars (Bruce Willis, Arnoldt, and others) to do campaign appearances, and he was just an office boy. Fret not Donnie, you'll always have Kid Rock. I wouldn't say Taylor is woke, but she is big on women's causes and seems sympathetic to the idea of treating people decently, which is very un-MAGA. I like the way she handled this: https://www.koimoi.com/hollywood-news/when-taylor-swift-took-a-jibe-at-tina-fey-amy-poehler-for-mocking-her-love-life-theres-a-special-place-in-hell-for/
  8. Yeah, just like he's doddering, near death and can't leave his basement, while at the same time he's a conspiracy mastermind concocting elaborate scenarios against the other party. Hypocrisy or schizophrenia? You decide! To paraphrase that obscure 17th century poet "The fault is not in our adversary, but in ourselves." The U.S. attacked with methods the guys with the gun-carrying pickup trucks couldn't do much about. No doubt the chatter in the halls of gov't in Tehran right now is if they are going to use their fighter jets against US air power. If the answer is yes it is to their own detriment. Personally I prefer small sabotages that make a lot of impact, like sugar in the gas tank or sand in the gearbox of a tank, less chance of civilian or friendly fire casualties . Or things like stuxnet . . .
  9. Well, that's one way to get out of paying.
  10. I gave up on this documents case. This case will be open until Cannon retires 20 years from now, even if DT dies in that time. Same with the Georgia case, them good ol' boys will get rid of Willis and put their own in there, and give the orange a win. With the sedition case in the hands of SCOTUS the outcome is obvious. So much for hope. But I hope I'm wrong.
  11. I want to see her do an in-country tour in summer/fall with facilities to register to vote outside the venues (such will be run local Dem parties, and not part of the show). The Fox employees on television will be cautioning that the plot is to turn the country into Barbieland. It also will give them a place to stand against the threat of "female empowerment" (put that threat in the same category as their battle against Michele Obama's black rage) and it will backfire on them bigly. Also get the female on-air employees to do their alternate-day bs on women's issues: a mother who works is an abomination because a woman's place is in the home, children need their mothers, etc. Next day, stay-at-home moms are blasted for being too lazy to work. This hypocrisy/schizophrenia has been a staple of Fox for decades, and put people like Meghan Kelly in the price range she now occupies. My sentiment for TS is "go get'em, kid!"
  12. First, let me say I don't agree with this, but here it is. In political wonk-land, the heavier the turnout for a vote the more likely the Dems will win. Both parties believe this. I think it was deemed god's truth after the Obama 2008 win. So, a GOP ploy, in addition to gerrymandering, is that the more difficult it is to vote the lower the number of collected votes means better chance for GOP.
  13. Did the snitch have a Samaritan passport?
  14. This is in the same category as that other guy associating candy ads with sex.
  15. I like it. It exposes the craziness. It also throws shade on the sports establishment, openly insinuating the games are fixed -- I'm sure there will be some blowback for that. She's probably rich enough to buy the damned Republican Party!
  16. Back when he was in the WH he wanted new laws that would allow him to shut down/sue/etc anyone who said things he didn't like. It was that babblegats Kellyanne who talked him out of it, pointing out that the same laws could be used against himself. Actually not new. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Daily_Caller He was on CNN before that. If in need of entertainment try to dig up the time he had Jon Stewart on his show.
  17. This might be before your time https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_Say_No When Nixon was president Elvis dropped in for a visit and asked for a DEA badge. The encounter has become the stuff of legend.
  18. Hey, show a little heart! If you spent your life waiting to inherit your father's fortune and then had to witness him squandering it all on legal shenanigans in his declining years you would want to stay as wrecked as this guy too. Looks like Uday and Qusay Jr and Eric are going to have to find jobs when pop dies. At least Ivanka married into money, unless they reel Jared in too. Maybe Jr spent so much time in the WH when dad lived there because of the goodies available. Good pic! About as good as that pic of Johnny Depp passed out on the floor with his head under a radiator. Waiting for Guilfoyle to let slip a d_ck pic of him, don't want him shown up by Hunter B, do we?
  19. The Thais are now allowing farang to run the rackets here?
  20. Remember when the Republicans were the anti-drug party?
  21. They were the middle-ground between Fox and RT. Neither of them are going anywhere: Fox will become a guy at a desk with a microphone if it has to, but will survive in some form. Oh wait . . .
  22. Yeah, that'll teach the population of Israel a lesson!
  23. Another vote for spreadsheet.
