No, I think his mind is perpetually stuck in the late 70’s and 80’s. Right around the time when the Muppet Show was big. So he’s really saying she is annoying like Miss Piggy.

But wait, I thought it was a hoax all long?

The main difference between Bush/Cheney-era bastards and Trump-era bastards is discretion. They were both making bank on the Federal dime, but politicians used to be discreet about it.

But I guess that Trump’s superpower. He doesnt think corruption is so something to be embarrassed by or kept on the down low. He shouts his corruption out loud and dares everyone to do something about it.

He does seem well grounded, though

The problem if it gets dismissed this way is that the 40% of the country who are full MAGA can argue “He got off on a technicality”.

I bet one of them will take matters into his own hands, and Trump will pardon him for it.

Thats not what Supply Side Jesus says…

From https://www.beliefnet.com/news/2003/09/the-gospel-of-supply-side-jesus.aspx

The deal with a pocket veto is that the President has ten days to either sign or veto the bill – but a veto is really returning it to Congress, unsigned. Congress can then try to get enough votes to overturn the veto.

If he does nothing with it (sign it or return it to Congress) within 10 days, then that counts as having signed it, and the bill becomes law.

However, that last bit only applies if Congress was able to accept the returned bill that whole time. If the Congress had already adjourned, and could not accept the returned bill, then the bill does not become law.

However, in recent years it has been made clear that Congress never really fully adjourns until early January, but then immediately reestablishes itself, so it is never fully adjourned. Even while the House was not in session during the recent government shutdown, they held short mini-sessions to make sure that the body never actually formally adjourned. Furthermore, Congress has made arrangements to accept returned bills from the President even when they are not in session (but have not formally adjourned for the term). So Congress would have to go of its way to adjourn early for the pocket veto to work.

tldr: a pocket veto won’t work unless Congress shuts itself down.

No, he did not have a single Senator holding it up it passed with unanimous consent.

Yes, I know, she’s a mouthpiece for a horrible administration, and may not deserve any of our empathy (because her political movement devalues it).

But doesn’t anyone see the irony of an article that is written talking about how the job of the press secretary is so difficult, because people dissect every single action you take… In an article which does nothing but dissect her social media posts?

I am imagining that Hitler “Downfall” clip, only in real life

No, I disagree. The reason why ICE can get away with the shit it does is that they go after the powerless, the nobodies. The eyes of the world are on this guy, if he gets illegally diappeared we will all notice.

Besides, if this guy really wants to run NYC, he is going to have to deal with narcissistic, entitled assholes on a daily basis. Why not start with the biggest one?

Technical Analysis is a pseudoscience, but it is not nonsense. It is simply pattern recognition, along with an observation that these patterns tend to repeat… until they don’t.

First of all, don’t try to time the market. You will never time it right.

Second, what you are looking for is called “technical analysis”. That is based on the theory that all the information you need to analyze a stock or crypto token is in the market data (price, volume, etc.), and by analyzing the market data over time you may be able to see a signal as to when to make a market move. There are lots of resources available online to learn the basics.

And finally, let’s say you read up on this, figure out some of your own good signals, and start to trade based on them. There are professional trading firms who do all that, algorithmically, much faster than you can. You may make money, but it will always be after they do.

Still want to do it? Good luck!

The sun did not fail to set, it was just hidden by those clouds over there

He fired all the competent legal advisors, though…

I am sure the President will have an entirely reasonable and prudent reaction to this news.

I find it remarkable how much of this Epstein story is paralleling the Pizzagate narrative. Everything about Pizzagate was a lie, except it turns out there really was a shadowy cabal of rich people who were covering up a pedophilia ring.

Have we heard from Q since August 10, 2019?

My point is that they are all self aware enough to know they can’t just say “I just won’t vote for any woman”, so they will give you any other reason if asked. It doesn’t have to make sense to us, as long as they can justify it in their head.

And that, in our current political climate, there are just enough of these losers, in the right zip codes, to make a difference.

This is part of the reason I so strongly want AOC to take over Schumer’s Senate seat for a term or three. If she runs for President in 2028, she will probably lose. But if she moves to the Senate and is as effective there as she has been in the House, maybe the country will be ready by 2040.

Oh, hard disagree there. There is a certain class of misogynist who likes their women docile. They “dislike” anyone woman who they dont find “agreeable”, and view women who express their own opinions as “aggressive”.

Is it an overly broad generalization? Maybe. But it tracks!

If I read the article property, the real asset is the rackspace and power they are already leasing. They would tear out the existing Bitcoin mining infrastructure and replace it with AI servers.
