Yeah, I think Lauren worded it poorly. If you can’t watch the video in the tweet it clearly shows he’s handcuffed, detained, and under watch while the reporter is talking to him though. Agree that it seems pretty friggen sloppy, there is a patrol car like ten feet away from where he’s sitting.

Ever since the Univision transition the comment moderation has been absolutely bizarre. I got banned on io9/Giz immediately afterward for reasons I can’t explain and nobody would respond to emails I sent asking why. Meanwhile Loco seems to get to run wild on the social and political oriented sites. It was like they…

The reporter was talking to him after he was handcuffed and being held on the scene by police. The video in the post shows him sitting on the ground with three officers surrounding him while he talks to the reporter. While I’m a little surprised they let them get that close I’m sure the police didn’t really care that…

Aww man, what a bummer. God poor Alonso.

So it’s an alternator on a turbo, we are getting into some really meta Jalopnik territory here...

If I had to guess it’s because they want to control viewing angles for spectator zones. The boat traffic out there is uncontrolled so maybe..? I think it’s a security thing designed to protect the competitors. They hosted the US Open at a local golf course a few years back and they put the same walls up anywhere that…

So this reminded me of a funny story. First time I heard the word, I think I was probably like 5 or so. My parents took us to a baseball game and we had my great grandpa along with us, he’s in his 80s, we’re all lilly white Scandinavian descendants. We ended up sitting up on the top deck in right field in a group with…

McMasters is active duty military and was compelled by congress. He was tapped by Trump, whether or not it was his choice is unknown but he would have had to resign and end his career in order to avoid serving in his current position. This happened after the previous retired Admiral that Trump asked to step in was…

You may be correct!

Oh yeah, Foxtrot Alpha here covered that too. Trump didn’t like him because he disagreed with him too much. The highly decorated general hailed as a brilliant architect of the future Army he conscripted to be his national security adviser and Donny-dumb-dumb would prefer if McMaster sat in the corner and pat him on…

This lady’s definition of “all of a sudden” seems to span vast periods of time. Good lord, I’m a child of the ‘80s and I knew from birth you don’t say that fucking word.

That’s exactly what he would have had to do. The thing is I’m guessing he’s trying to hang in there for a fourth star so resigning would have basically forfeited his career goals. I’ve given him the benefit of the doubt up to this point because his military record has been nothing but stellar, I’m wondering if he’s…

There are points in Doug’s videos where he’ll say something unflattering about a car with the owner riding along and then just keeps talking over them trying to correct him and I wonder if it’s gonna happen.

Watched that a few days ago. Roger Stone is a baffling human being, he seems to have no concept of political consequences, no scruples and is obstinately proud of both of those things.

Mattis did volunteer but McMaster didn’t have a choice in taking the position. This is the first time I’ve read a statement from him that I’ve found troubling, we’ll see how this plays out. I don’t think he has anything to do with the Russia connections but I don’t see any reason why he should offer an opinion like…

Hmm, I’ve defended McMaster a few times with the recent news coming out in the last two weeks but I’m giving him some major side eye here. This is concerning man.

I consider myself to be a relative centerist honestly and I am fucking balls on fire enraged with the Trump apologists who act like it’s NBD and Hillary was just as bad. Idiots, stupid backwards dumb morons, all of ‘em.

I know full well Hillary’s list of bad traits and it’s why I was pretty dismayed when she won the Dem nomination. The Republicans just went full on hold my beer with Trump because he’s demonstrably so much worse. One person is an establishment politician with a 30 year track record of being an establishment…

No joke. I didn’t know they existed until I drove one for a challenge in Forza Horizon 2. I learned about this car because a video game forced me to use it, I guess that counts as marketing sorta?

I feel like I could make that out of a lab coat, a hot glue gun and some art supplies. $51k!
