  1. …clearly it’s going to take me a while to see it any other way than I did yesterday…but…there are sound reasons why a great deal more people pay attention to this lady when she talks than to me when I rattle off at a keyboard

    …besides…it just…sounds less crazy when a reasonable lady says it

    …I mean…the unreasonable parts don’t…but…they don’t sound like they’d be impressed by how tall the stack of flames on top of your head was…because if you can’t put out a fire on top of your own head that speaks to a lack of adequate preparedness on your part that is…unbecoming in a grown up…sort of thing…&…as ever…there’s a few of either of their ever-building catalogue of monologues or dialogues to you, me & the camera that you can do a lot worse than queue up even if youtube might judge you for it…but…on the upside…not only is it a josh week

    …but billboard interviewed him…&…I don’t know what’ll happen if I paste in the share link from a post that isn’t a video but is youtube…but if we find out it’s nothing useful I expect I’ll come back for another pass at wedging the link to that in if only because it might be one of the best answers I’ve ever seen someone give to the “would you consider trying to leverage where you’re at into some kind of run at politics?”

    …ok…so those don’t work but the embed would have looked sort of like this if I can just pull the thumbnail & skip the characteristically self-effacing line that accompanied it

    …& the actual article/interview is

  2. I read several skeets that all basically said, “If you’re thinking the Epstein Files will be the thing that brings Trump down, you’re going to be disappointed.” And honestly, I think that’s true. I think the orange pedo is all through those files, but his worshippers will blame and shame the victims and nothing much will happen. That’s actually what I’m bracing for, the horrible defenses from supposedly moral people.

    BIG NEWS: Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva will finally be sworn in as a member of Congress tomorrow.She is likely to be the 218th vote on the Epstein discharge petition, which would force a full vote to release the Epstein files in their entirety.

    • Also, I have this mental picture of Congressional staff calling the major news outlets and politicians and saying, “Where can we send your copies?” And all of them saying, “Don’t bother, got a copy right here, had it for a year now.”

    • Epstein Files are a tool, not a goal. Lots of people are going to defend a pedophile, but the point is that plenty of others are going to look at an already disliked president and slide into the “fully disgusted” camp.

      Of course the Democrats will likely start running some pedophiles of their own to blunt the message. (Too cynical? I say NO)

      • Old joke, resurfaced in light of current events: If Democrats found a genie that granted them three wishes, they’d negotiate down to one, and then wish for something they *think* Republicans would like.

    • Old Preznit, the hunger for schoolgirl fantasy
      He wants her so badly, knows what she wants to be
      Inside him there’s longing, this pedo’s an open page
      Bookmarking, he’s so gross now
      This girl is 1/3 his age

      Don’t be, don’t be so
      Don’t be so close to me
      Don’t be, don’t be so
      Don’t be so be to me

    • …maybe they have those confused with “of teslas” & “in china”?

      …like…a single model of a single competitiot outsold all tesla models across the board…& people in the US that are still buying them are picking up post-leased 2nd hand stuff not new sticker price stuff…so…if EV=tesla for some people maybe that’s how they get there?
