  1. Does Doug Jones get re-elected in November? You have to wonder
     
  2. The good populism by Victor Davis Hanson

    very possible the single dumbest article ive ever kind of read

    it includes this sentence

    which you guys is just an absolute doozy

    i hope you're sitting down when you read this sentence

    it was written by a professor at stamford university

    in probably the most prestigious conservative paper for literary criticism, philosophy, art, etc

    are you ready

    Ancient American ideas like the right to bear arms and an end to inheritance taxes still reflect Tocqueville’s interest in maintaining the viability of a large middle class suspicious of both rich and poor.



    ancient american ideas

    one more:

    Often, (((urban intellectuals,))) aristocrats, and elites—from the patrician Roman Republican street agitator Publius Clodius Pulcher and the Jacobin Maximilien Robespierre, to present-day billionaires like George Soros and Tom Steyer—have sought to assist the urban protesters.

  16. Ah, the crooked media opportunists are rebranding as in touch Bernie sympathizers huh? Interesting. We'll see how 'willing to make enemies' they continue to be when Lockheed is lobbying the next Dem president to blow up Iran. (They won't be willing at all because they're opportunists)
     
  17. A Souvenir Smuggled Home From Cuba: A Cancer Vaccine

    Bbbbbut Castro bad and the world would be better if Bay of Pigs had succeeded r-right????

    "Stories of patients returning from Cuba are met with keen interest on the online health care social network Inspire, which supports a lung cancer group of about 53,000 members. They share information about how to travel under the radar and which size of refrigerated lunchbox is best.

    “We got a lot of inquiries,” said Judy Gallant, an owner of P&G Travel, which has offices in Ontario and Havana, and is planning trips to Cuba for half a dozen American patients. “We make it clear we are not medical people. We just help them connect with people who are.”"

    being against the Cuban revolution is literally being against the cure for cancer


    and the US needs an underground railroad to smuggle it in

    I had to check the article to see if he actually put the three set of parenthesis for urban intellectuals.

    We stink of desperation.

    Oh no, they're ruining punk for us now.

    Former Trump lawyer Ty Cobb rocks out at the punk show of a band called Copstabber

    "Here’s one way to relieve the stress of defending the president from that pesky Russia investigation: Former Trump lawyer Ty Cobb was spotted pumping his fists to the musical stylings of a punk band called Copstabber at punk/metal venue Slash Run in Petworth on Saturday night.

    Sometime during the band’s set, a group of a dozen or so folks wandered in wearing far more formal dress than the rest of the clientele, according to D.C. photographer Chris Suspect, who was attending the show. Suspect and some other patrons immediately identified the ex-Trump lawyer by his distinctive silvery-white tresses and turned-up mustache, Suspect said, but Suspect asked a member of the party whether Cobb was, in fact, who they thought. “I still thought he might be pulling my leg, so I Googled it to be sure,” he said. Apparently, Suspect was told, they had all attended a wedding nearby and had decided to keep the good times rolling.

    Cobb, Suspect said, stayed seated while others in his group danced, “but he was definitely rocking out — he had his hands in the air.” One particular number the former Russia-probe defender seemed to enjoy? A song titled “I Like Cocaine.”

    Copstabber singer Dave Poole seemed to enjoy his new fan. “I threw beer on him, called him ‘whiskers,’ got a high five from him,” he wrote on Suspect’s Facebook page. “I just thought he was an old wildman but it turns out he is a RICH old wildman!”
