The scary thing is that the only purpose of the republican party and several libertarian tech assholes is to destroy the republic. I’m not sure what it is they want to replace it with.

Man o’ man, being male, divorced, mid/late forties and hanging out with wild young women seems exhausting. - says mid 50s guys everywhere while putting down the casting stones.
There’s little to no similarity between Manifort and Capone trials. From the Chicago Tribune:
It’s an attempt to push folks living between Halsted and Austin and Cermak and Lake out of the city so that the new west loop McDonald’s headquarters feels safe for corporate types coming in from the suburbs. That was satire. I really don’t know. There’s Cicero between me and the Holy Land of North Lawndale. That’s a…
Just wait until Hamilton is running the Digital Writers Union NYC local pension fund. DWU org chart: Hamilton Nolan, Boss —— Hamilton Nolan Jr., Boss —- Ms Hamilton Nolan Jr., Boss —- Tina and Timmy Nolan, Bosses overseeing outsourcing of Manpower and Kelly Services, respectively.
The real news will be when McRaven’s tosses his pension over the White House fence like John Kerry tossed his Vietnam medals. Then again, it may not matter much. The University of Texas system is lousy in cash from Permian Basin oil and gas and can afford ex military for honorary administrative positions.
There are free online mapping apps, too. Maps help give a lay of the land. Many arts and letters types don’t appreciate maps. It might be that a picture says a thousand words and would put our chattering class out of business.
Musk picked a bad week to take Tesla private with House of Saud money. Fuck, it’s not like the Silicon Valley fanboys read anything other than spirited green-tech and tech-tech blogs. And the future king is a millennial, too, which is cool to some.
In an effort to take the wind out of democrats’ sails, Trump will appoint Jennifer Pritzker to the position of Assistant to the President and Director of Communications for the Office of Public Liaison, which might still be vacant after Omarosa’s departure. Bedrock solid republican and crony capitalists, Jennifer is.
You know who else loves those sweet, sweet oil checks? Elon Musk.
Here’s what I get.
A loud German beer brewing and swilling anarchist kind of name. We’re talking broad brushing of potential copycats of the Haymarket Square bomb throwers here. Why do you think prohibition took off so successfully?
With a surname like Kessler he’d have had trouble becoming a charter member at Chicago Golf Club. Despite first amendment pleas. That’s when the republican party, of Illinois at least, still had a guy with the last name Lincoln. Charter members being Robert T. Lincoln and all the upstate (Chicago) monied, downstate…
Republicans may just have a problem with women politicians who have two surnames. Especially when republican mayor of Cicero, Illinois Betty Loren Maltese was sent to the big house and lost the support of Illinois republicans by implementing popular social and organized crime fighting programs. Republicans like their…
It’s go time.
Israel and Saudi Arabia are becoming besties. It’s the enemy of my enemy is my friend kind of thing given Iran. Maybe not all Saudis and Israelis, but at least the House of Saud and the likud party types. Also the realpolitik types in the US like the dude selling this blog. Saudi Arabia could stir up about 1.4 billion…
You’re not going to get Chinese, Saudi and Russian capital for starchitect Genie Gang designed two-flats built on abandoned lots near 16th and Pulaski, goddamnit.
It’s all right, we’ll have Vox to explain it all for us. NPR, through post crisis increases in foundations support, will help find common ground and bring understanding to the whole situation. NYT will dedicate an entire Sunday Magazine about it by making it not about republicans, gun manufacturers and gun nuts, like…
Hardly any Catholics read Laudato Si, Pope Francis’ encyclical on the environment and climate change. Hardly any Catholics are going to be persuaded on capital punishment one way or another. As Pope John Paul II once said, “if it wasn’t for jews and protestants, nobody would listen to me.” Francis is probably…
