I miss Anonymous. It always seemed that that merry band screwed around with the overblown folk, like Musk.

@glynmoody

I've mentioned this before, and agree with you, however...

Musk is more than just Musk, now. The question arises how to handle items he has a US security interest in, and how to divest his wealth and divvie up the parcels to the proper stakeholders. He can't be allowed to just "walk away."

Anyway, that's the news from Flogiston Paradise. Here on Earth 1, I think we've got a fair idea how this ISN'T going down!

stochastic terrorist.

He's out to burn down the world. Time to flush.

I'm bewildered about the Right's interpretation of comedy. What they qualify as a joke has none of the classic elements of joke construction (per O'Shannon). It relies solely on offense or cruelty, which CAN be comedically incorporated, but needs the rest of the structure to actually convey humor.

It comes out as pure mean.

@georgetakei

Not if they work in one of the branch offices.😐

@jeffowski

Franklin was a woke O.G.
He knew. His lovers would have known. It would have been pillow talk of the town.

@jeffowski

He has an interesting story. Wiki doesn't seem to mention it, but my understanding was, he was largely run out of Europe on a rail. That he was up on charges, and Franklin's offer was a mutually acceptable solution for all.

@GottaLaff

Should the public NOT orchestrate a campaign when a judge REFUSES to hold a hearing on a person duly indicted?

Do we really have to resort to the days of threatening lynching, in order to force judges to fulfill their public responsibility of holding a trial, to avoid mob justice? That's why we as a society HAVE judges, and why trials have well established procedures, to avoid such mayhem.

Cannon has already failed at her job. In one of the most important cases this country has seen. She needs removal, to protect the public interest. And the public interest is in maintaining societal peace. If the court's administration cannot do that, then all bets are off.

And he would have been divorced 240 times.😐

That amount might be in negative dollars.

@w7voa

Donnie's soaking up boos like a drunken sailor! And here I thought he was a teetotaler.

@georgetakei

Just a quack. Just open it a quack.

@jeffowski

Of course, this is facially true, but there's a deeper nugget in here.

She went into the taco joint thinking that she was giving money to people who would soon be destroyed...

The same people she later accused of stealing, were the ones she initially thought were the chumps. The ones she was pulling something over, on!

Of course, this is anecdotal, and shows how, within Christianity, a mere 95% of a group can ruin it for the other 5%.

@georgetakei

I'll go with W. C. Fields on the subject.

"I don't drink water. Fish f..k in it."

@GottaLaff

It's operating like a micro-cap. I would suspect those giving it that evaluation are using current bid price, and pretending there's deep enough demand that the market price will stay there.

My initial contention is that demand at the current price is as deep as the Republican gene pool.

Time will flesh out what's happening here. Once the facts start coming in, I reserve the right to update.

@SpaceLifeForm @skykiss

As long as the late nite comics are on tonite, I know we'll be alright.

Maybe still on the rack, a couple of inches longer, but alright, alright, alright.

@skykiss @SpaceLifeForm
With the RNC under Trump, there is only one place for the Republican Party to go...if they don't win, and I give them bad odds. They will have to essentially start anew. Trump will leave a shell of a machine, and still nobody will be able to drive it but for him or his family.

@havvyhh2 @skykiss @SpaceLifeForm

Here's a startling prediction. The new Republicans will be forged from scratch by Cheney and a small cohort coalescing around her. The old party is permanently fractured, and I'd urge whatever sane comes from its ashes to abandon the name Republican. It has become stained beyond repair, as the new White Dominionist Fascist Trump party.

Part of that prediction rests on the fact that a fascist party never dies of its own accord, it must be killed. The Republican Party must, as an org, die. To become as defunct as a Know-Nothing, or a Whig.

@GottaLaff

The unfortunate part of it is, I don't think there's any quick way to separate Trump from any foreign underwriting. I think he'll have access to as much as he can spend as long as there's any significant chance he can win.

The down-ticket candidates on the Republican ballot will take the brunt. Trump's burning it all down, before he's dragged away.

At the end of all this, I half expect the biggest joke of all. If Trump can ever wrap his mind around the damage he's caused the Republican Party, you know he'll claim he did it for the Democrats.

@GottaLaff

Netanyahu knows he can do real damage to Biden's re-election bid.

And eventually, he will. Biden's job is to screw Netti before he screws Joe. I think it's as simple as that.
