This thing started after Obama got elected, "he's coming for your guns!" So they spent upwards of a week's pay for each gun in their personal arsenal and the only thing they do with them is shoot targets. I think gun owners are getting antsy to put them to some kind of use.

That's quite a career arc.

My 300 lb stepfather used to tell me stuff like that when he was beating me up when I was 7. He would say things about my natural father also while he was doing so, does it mean he loved him too?

Yes. We all do. I asked myself the question "where do I see myself 20 years from now?" and I figured I would need a new bong by then.

It’s a Nightmare for Him He doesn't sleep. He stays up to monitor what the media says about him. Narcissism is a full-time job.

Arrogant would be an understatement! Congrats on today's success, buddy! Glad to hear it went well.

I would prefer if this incident and its likes are not reported on, as it might give ideas to the US's new Nazis to go over there and do similar things. On the other hand those shmucks will probably get arrested en route for being armed, and they'll be locked up for at least a little while.

A few days a US wing-nut politician warned of marijuana zombies in New York City. I had a comment to make on this but I forgot what it was.

The FBI has previously backed down from him and his father. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundy_standoff But there is more to this. The Koch brothers are their sponsors. All this claptrap about God and the US Constitution is their own, the goading from the Kochs is only about corporate greed.

Bear in mind he is THIS guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupation_of_the_Malheur_National_Wildlife_Refuge

So all is well then. And the GOP likes to say the Dems are soft on crime.

Ginger or Maryanne?

When the three SCOTUS justices assigned by DT were in their appointment hearings it became clear they were lying when asked about certain issues, and they all had the same response "I won't respond to hypotheticals." What we saw is what we got. I put the onus on the Democrat senators who let them slide in, three of which tried to run for president in 2020 but didn't get past the primaries (praise Allah for protecting us!), and I think those same three jokers will attempt to run again. The Dems don't have the guts to fight as dirty as the GOP, which The Lincoln Project keeps telling them, and they are correct. Meanwhile vile creatures are crawling out the sewers and swamps and getting elected by the GOP, celebrating the impunity of being in that party.

The smarts and imagination that it takes to create new technologies is a long walk from running a profitable company, particularly one that intends to sell the world new concepts. This guy is out of his league and has had great luck so far, same with Zuckerberg. The guys who started google figured this out and brought somebody in: they did ok while they were getting big, but they knew huge (like being on the stock exchange) was beyond them, and fortunately for them they chose the right guy. Everyone likes to point to Apple, but it was Woz who was the tech genius while Jobs handled the business at the beginning; when they got to huge Jobs did not choose the right guy and it got him fired from his own company (for a few years). Or is he hoping AI will help him to run all those companies? Don't know how many in here recall, or paid attention to the "dot-com bubble." Part of the folly was astronomical evaluations for companies that didn't have a product, and for the products they were expected to create the technology did not yet exist. It looks like that cockamamie mindset is coming back in.

I guess you can say his intelligence regarding this subject is artificial. But fret not, his arrogance will pull him through. Or not. To boil it down, AI is really just a long, complicated if-then-else statement.

Miss Nubile 19 is someone who might be paid to take her blouse off, and for granny it's more likely guys would pay her to keep her clothes on. But don't lose hope, granny might consent to a private show -- "you pay now!"

And this just weeks after the Matt Schlapp groping revelation. Sounds like a bunch of merry lads over there. Aren't they supposed to be conservative bible thumpers? And they can swear to their wives "honey, there is no other woman in my life!" Maybe Madison Madison Cawthorn was trying to tell us something . . .

Metric system?

Stolen erection pics indeed! I never understood what this guy was about. I'd see him on newstalk shows and it was pretty much word salad, Sarah Palin level.

I went home with a gal doing Magenta impersonation once, I guess that's as close as it gets. I would be much more concerned about kids being near congress members in favor of 12 year olds marrying than I would with a drag queen reading a storybook.

Will someone kindly post what the Thai word for galangal is?

It all began here. The man with the very good mind umma-umma-umma'd his response, he apparently hadn't anticipated being asked about it; up until this moment his wash-and-wear response to the subject was "I am pro life." Say what you will about Matthews, but this is where he asked the right question at the right moment and didn't let DT walk away from it. Before this moment abortion hadn't come up in the 2016 campaign. A few days ago 2024 hopeful Tim Scott tried the same thing. Tim Scott gets tripped up on abortion ban questions

It has never been this low since the day of the golden escalator. A good sign. Do realize that it could be within Pence's hands to rid the GOP of this pest: he could be the vanquishing hero or fire up the MAGA lynch mob again. I maintain there is a good chance he'll go into exile, but probably not this year. The Big Stink is going to be the Jack Smith case, which will probably not be on the calendar until next year, and the Federal indictment may could very well involve restricting travel. And then there is the health issue. Back when he occupied the WH, and reporters were out on the lawn doing their segments, there would ALWAYS be an ambulance in the background. Never saw that before. I haven't noticed that since he left, but maybe there is less excitement in the WH with him gone. This health paranoia would be a deciding factor in where he'll park his carcass, he'll want "the best" medical care. NATO countries won't want him, maybe neutral Switzerland? But if a Federal indictment comes down and he flees the US he'll officially be a criminal on the run.

They claim to be innocent but behave like they are guilty.

"Promoting the arming of US citizens" is the NRA cause. Paying pols to promote their cause is a huge part of their strategy. Can they be considered a terrorist organization? The guys who run the racket stuff their pockets well.
