The Hall of Fire

Trump and Biden are both getting the best defenses their money can buy. Hunter Biden is also doing himself the favor of behaving himself and staying out of his lawyers' way while they do what they were paid to do. He didn't end up under a gag order, he didn't send flying monkeys after the judge, the...

I'm going to be in Belgrade in a matter of days. I wonder what my in-laws are thinking. Or if they even care. They might be expecting the project to freeze halfway like so many Belgrade construction projects do. More likely, though, the city is going to be losings its collective sh*t over the munici...

Indeed. And it's the lying and corruption that he is now convicted for.

But that's not as much fun to talk about as banging a porn star and buying silence.

Yes, decimation means reducing by 1/10. The Romans used it as a form of military discipline. The term is used more figuratively now.

OMG, that take in that tweet is so out of touch it's hilarious.

That Netanyahu is now getting squirrely about.

You've got twelve people in a room and you've denied them a copy of the rules. I'd say a request for clarification/refresher is a sign that humans are being humans in there. I saw somewhere that if the defendant and the prosecution consent, the jury CAN have a copy of the instructions. Is that corre...

We'll see how it works out, but think about the flex. Oh, you won't let us onto your soil to build a pier? Cool. We'll just do it anyway. It's for humanitarian purposes but there's definitely a message being sent, if you know what I mean.

Trump's got his daughter in-law installed at the top of the RNC. If they want campaign funds and whatever else they get from the RNC, they have to lick his boots and tell him they enjoy the taste.

Well, to be fair, Presidential visits are a huge PITA. They have to shut everything down within a couple miles with POTUS is in the area. It sucked trying to get around Boulder that one time I got blindsided by an Obama campaign stop (I started paying more attention after that). And when Biden came ...

Genocide is defined as the intentional destruction of a particular chunk of the human population. The actual number is immaterial. No one's accusing the US of genocide in Vietnam because our goal there was not to destroy the Vietnamese people. In fact, the belief was we were there to save them. The ...

The public record is the CIA showed him something that made him change his mind. Could've been the geopolitical implications of Ukraine falling. Could've been proof of certain contacts within his caucus or his own office. Could've been both. Could've been something none of us are thinking of. What's...

Got a coworker who dabbles in stocks with mixed results. A week or two ago I asked him how to short Trump's social media company and he told me it was too expensive. But I guess those who were able to afford the stock are making bank right now.

That makes as much sense as MTG's pseudo-religious blather.

1. Since the Last Supper was actually a Passover Seder, why does Easter not coincide with Passover? Eastern Orthodox churches tend to keep their Easter in lock step with Passover. Something I pay attention to because my in-laws celebrate on that calendar. Kinda wish the western churches did that sa...

They think he'll still be alive in 2028? With that waistline? Though given that the national GOP is directing all resources to Trump's legal bills and current campaign, I doubt they have anything left to nurture up fresh blood.

WEF = World Economic Forum. The Davos crowd. Not that that helps make any sense of Moreno's campaign pitch.

Four years ago today I was basically sheltering in place because of a rampant virus. Today I am basically sheltering in place because there's over a foot of snow on the ground. The latter will get plowed within the next 24 hours and either melt or sublimate off in the coming days. The former is stil...

Has anyone checked to see if Bradley's got some sort of vendetta with either Willis or Wade? Or if he was expecting some sort of pay off for all this? I saw something in a reddit thread about Bradley leaving Wade's firm after a sexual assault accusation. I spotted something confirmatory in the local...

I think she needs to step back from national politics and spend some time with her family. Don't mean that to be snarky either. The Boebert household needs tending to.
