Now I have a terrible earworm. Just a few lines, “… The evening headlines read, Richard Cory went home last night …”. I think it signifies something, just not sure what.
“Some or all”? That really helps. :dubious:
Apparently the briefers find it necessary to use exactly the same techniques commonly used with small children:
Maybe they need to go farther down the food chain and use techniques designed to hold the attention of… I dunno… goldfish?
Including bribes of candy and ice cream.
FWIW I went berserk and started babbling about the Illuminati in response to our new Doper viakix. He’s posted twice, each time a brief question:
Who has more business smarts: Trump or Obama?
If Donald Trump were a Democrat, would he be treated differently by the media?
Sincere seeker of truth? Maybe, if there even is such a thing these days. I took him for a low-IQ Trumpist “just asking questions” and chose to play with him a bit.
His contact info, BTW, leads to a same-named website: “Viakix is an American footwear company”
This line, which I thought was the give-away, was serious …
“Just read the comments on the page I linked to. It will make you sick.”
That is a null statement. It is like saying “water is wet”.
Don’t forget: Two scoops!
What the ever-loving fuck does this mean
… When I took over Syria it was infested with ISIS. It was all over the place. And now you have very little ISIS and you have the caliphate almost knocked out. We will be announcing in the not too distant future 100 percent of the caliphate which is the area- the land- the area- 100. We’re at 99 percent right now, we’ll be at 100. When I took it over it was a disaster. …
What is this “caliphate”?
The real estate controlled by ISIS, which they claimed as the new caliphate. Trump actually kinda used the word correctly.
So now he’s openly identifying as Russian?
Russian-american.
Ok, how about this exchange, from the same link,
MARGARET BRENNAN: Cause you have an acting AG until you get Barr confirmed–
(individual-1): [COLOR=“darkorange”]Yes.
BRENNAN: An acting defense secretary. An acting chief of staff. An acting interior secretary.
(Individual-1): OK. It’s easier to make moves when they’re acting.[/COLOR]
What does that mean?
It means they’re keeping the chairs warm and shutting up while he does whatever the fuck he wants.
And it means the Senate becomes even more irrelevant. (No need to confirm.)
Any bets on the words Mitch McConnell will use to shrug off this latest power-grab?
In my view, they fit in anywhere, any time. I’m a greaseball from NYC and I’m onboard with bangers and mash.
Yes.
Neither. Jack Daniels Tennessee Rye.
Yum.
That works too.
He can just call them “acting” and leave them there forever, bypassing Congress and confirmation. McConnell will go along because they are BOTH paid by Russia.
