Disparaging Canadian geese does tend to get them riled

American here: genuinely, I would appreciate it if you did.

Tbh it should be an invite-only caucus

Bro a child rapist just got elected to the presidency

He ~~may have~~ definitely resigned to avoid a damning ethics report.

Iirc you can give a nom de guerre and they don’t ask questions, but if you want to move past a certain rank, you have to normalize relations and any open criminal cases with your original country of citizenship (though I’m sure there are exceptions, like if you’re an Afghan national and, you know, don’t want to be executed by the Taliban).

“Merrick Garland’s DOJ cleared Matt Gaetz and didn’t charge him. Are you alleging Garland is part of a cover-up?” a spokesperson for Gaetz said Friday.

I mean… you said it, not me. But now that you mention it, and in the context that Garland also deferred the investigation for two fucking years… yeah, maybe. Who fucking knows at this point?

But to be perfectly honest, I expect this will all be swept under the rug, just like all the Trump cases. So good job slow-walking everything, Garland, you fucking quisling.

This is why I’m holding out hope that Sanders is working on the foundation of a new party. The DNC is clearly not the way forward, and doesn’t look like they’re going to pull themselves out of their death spiral.

Jesus. They’ve learned nothing:

He added, “Trump really kind of ran up numbers everywhere, you know what I mean? There was clearly a strategy not focusing on one place or another. And as a party we have to do that.”

THATS NOT WHAT FUCKING HAPPENED.

Trumps numbers barely moved.

Harris’s numbers PLUMMETED compared to Trump’s 4 years ago. Start there. That’s where you need to start this postmortem.

This is bending the knee

 

Edit: lol yeah, I deserve this, I teed it up rather magnificently.

 

Personal commentary: reading the summary (I did not watch the interview live), I’m not really seeing anything that assuages my concerns about his mental acuity. More importantly, I’m not seeing anything that indicates he’s being anything even close to as pragmatic as Macron is being with the election they’re doing now in France, with regards to just trying to make sure the fascists do not fucking win. I must admit I’m feeling quite pessimistic about things.

 

Surprisingly based from ND, to be completely honest

 

Also available with a roasted crab, which is what they’re famous for, but this version is still delicious, because those noodles are straight crack
