It’s the most cognizant thing I think I’ve heard him say. The “fuck” pulls it together and makes him sound almost normal.

Almost.

This makes the most sense.

Why is everyone so hands off and permissive with Israel? Like they can do nothing wrong when they go out of their way to do wrong things?

Didn’t Netflix cover this in a food special 5 years ago? That and Tiger King.

When we do hit 4% warming, it will be a hell on earth scenario.

China calling in our debt.

What’s galling is the standard format response is: why are we feeding people over there when we have hungry kids right here?

While fighting school lunches, cutting SNAP, and gutting American food banks. This government will never spend USAID money to feed the American people.

High odds the feed our own argument will persist regardless.

Sure, but the man’s motives make no sense to me. I’ve ch as liked it up to spite and inertia, but I’d value other perspective.

Pay wall.

Lady Gaga is a girl. Always has been. She simply moved in drag circles and borrowed the showmanship.

Who wants Lady Gaga dead? I’m a bit shocked.

And then the second thought rolls in, identifying her associations with drag queens and I’m thinking it’s a far right individual.

Whenever suicide is mentioned in conjunction with Epstein, the answer is it wasn’t suicide. Even so, it means there will be no justice.

Classic Cluster B like behavior.

You can’t negotiate with a narcissistic personality disorder, not when they’ll deny the shit is from their dog even when captured on camera. Either way, they’ll factor in a way for the occurrence of the shit to be your fault and therefore your problem to clean up.

Not so silently, if you pay attention. There were brief headlines on the No selling to our defense contractors some time ago.

I’m in Trump time dilation so it’s hard to guesstimate when I read that one.

Is this man functioning at full capacity? It took over a year to build a chain grocery store in a nearby town and that’s mostly stuff on shelves, not a production line set-up. Time was spent up front as well, in planning and logistics, that I wasn’t able to see, such that the total time to build a chain grocery store took well over a year, maybe two or even three.

Meanwhile, Trump expects “now” for manufacturing.

Never mind the fact that Americans won’t be able to buy products of that manufacturing due to high costs. What was the estimate, that iPhones manufactured here would cost $2k+? Something like that.

I’m not passionate about bourbon nor am I a real drinker and thus the wrong person to pull into what is intended to be a heated discussion on it.

My original point is some people are and some of those people make policy decisions.

I can’t say I’ve ever enjoyed the taste of a regular whiskey, top shelf or not. There is a difference. Granted, your comment is intended as baiting in this way.

Someone in charge likely has a bourbon cellar. If you’ve ever had good bourbon, you’ll understand. Small amounts of the top shelf bourbon can be like good chocolate.

Or they’re practiced lushes and don’t want any alcohol price increases.

South Korea and France, at least, are getting this part right.
