The markets are not doing well, but there is no risk of a liquidity crisis (at least there wasn’t until Mnuchin tweeted). This is equivalent to the Secretary of Defense, out of the blue, saying “I have consulted with NATO, NASA and other relevant international agencies. We are confident in our militaries ability to…

It’s like if we had a Secretary of Defense and he released a statement out of the blue last night saying “After consulting with all of the members of NATO, the UN Security Council, and the leaders of G-20 nations, we are confident we can handle any invasion of extraterrestrial origin.”

Don’t forget all that sweet, sweet lobbying money! Ol’ Paul is about to get P-A-I-D!

Serious policy wonk(tm) Paul Ryan assured us that the tax law was going to put the economy in the stratosphere! I thought this might finally be the year I would make it and could finally afford an upgrade to eating Fancy Feast instead of the cheap Chinese brand which was causing my kidneys to fail. I guess theres…

Donating to single moms at Ricks Cabaret

Does he plan on retiring or in 40 years will he still be teaching GRE classes to climate refugee from the peak of Everest?

Also I call BS, a millennial with no budget for avocado toast?

Customs and Border Patrol can setup border checkpoints anywhere within 100 miles of a port of entry, which includes about 2/3 of US citizens. I never heard this “transporting weapons of war” thing, but I wonder if they can seize your vehicle while traveling with ammo in the center console even if you never left the…

Kind of ironic but the borderline guys who don’t make the Hall become more famous than if they had. Guys like Mike Mussina, Omar Vizquel, or Edgar Martinez (who should be in) will continue to get talked about more than guys who have actually made it into the Hall of Fame

There is a large cohort of middle aged white men in America who view any person of color or woman who has made it to a management position as a product of ‘Affirmative Action’. To them, almost everything that has gone wrong in the country, stagnated wages for example, is then blamed on this group and the affirmative…

It will probably be a joint venture of Gary Busey and Meatloaf:

Funny story is that in the 1990's spy magazine sent out checks for very samll amounts of money to rich New Yorkers to see who would be cheap enough to cash them. They started out at $1.11 and went all the way down to $0.13. Trump was one of two people who cashed every check. The other one, identified in the linked…

He is dumb as a rock for ever going to work for Trump. What else did he expect? Anyone with a firing synapse could see what was coming the moment this clown hopped on the Trump Tower down escalator to announce his candidacy for President. 

Exactly! Bush was Trump with better PR and the ability to get things done. Bush ignored the CIA to start a war in Iraq (and make some money for Cheney), Trump ignores the CIA so he can make some money from the Saudis. Bush had Katrina, Trump had Puerto Rico. Bush nominates an unqualified Harriet Miers to the Supreme…

Wasn’t necessary last night, I don’t think he ever got hit!

The Barr for AG nomination seems out of left field, here is how I think this played out:

The death of George HW Bush led to a lot of recent discussion about his legacy, including the Bush administration handling of the Iran-Contra Scandal. Barr was AG when George HW Bush issued a series of pardons to those involved in…

Thanks for clarifying.

Each time they get one of these threats do they have to evacuate the residences in Time Warner Center as well? It has to be hell to have to leave your house in the middle of the night, standing out in the freezing cold for hours because some boozed up MAGA clown decided to call in a bomb threat.

A very impressive performance. I’m not sure if anyone caught his post-game interview, but he seemed to be a really humble guy too. 

I may be wrong, but I don’t think the ball carrier can be called for a face mask or illegal hands to the face.

Its a spoiler to provide down force allowing for sharper cuts
