Sure explains that excessively sniffy debate performance.   They figured he couldn’t focus long enough to string together complete sentences, so they loaded him up.

Alas, I lack an AOC campaign pin. And I am over 50.  

Even better, the AMI deal states pretty clearly that they worked Cohen and at least one other member of the campaign to accomplish the payments. The only other people with check writing authority besides Trump himself were his kids and the Trump Org CFO. That guy has already bargained for immunity, so you know he’s…

Also just now: Former Apprentice staffer says Trump was a speed freak, snorted crushed up Adderall pills, had a casting couch for Miss Teen USA contestants.   SO MUCH WINNING.      

Wasn’t there just an article about the latest workplace thing being employees ghosting their jobs when they move on?

WHY ARE WE ALL YELLING. IS THIS A BRICK TAMLAND COSPLAY CONVENTION?

This is AWESOME. They withheld the deal until Trump had plenty of opportunity to lie about the whole thing over and over. Which they knew he would in the face of Cohen’s pleading guilty. Trump is just getting completely owned. And he knows it.

This is a false characterization. $35k out of $60 million raised is not in the same solar system as “bought and paid for.”

I don’t disagree about that point.

Oh, he can be right about lots of movies (not always), if you can pull the pretentious threads apart enough to get to his actual point. They run three page reviews from him that could be cut down to two paragraphs. He needs an editor to bind his hands so he can only type with two fingers. He’s the worst. Give me…

Creed 2. Fight me.

That is a PERFECT encapsulation of a typical Richard Brody review — a couple of 40+ word sentences. Of which there are about a hundred more in the review. By the time I get halfway through one of his reviews I want to feed the entire New Yorker issue to a shredder.

It is hilarious that a large percentage of the left electorate, in the face of a midterm election cycle out of which record numbers of women and PoC are heading to Congress, thinks the answer to a potentially strong challenge by a young, charismatic white guy is the oldest, retread-iest white guy possible.

Actually it’s much worse. “Sludge found that there were 24 oil executives who made donations to O’Rourke’s campaign, totaling $35,125.” Presumably this means the rest of the $430k was from rank and file employees. This also means $35k out of $69 million, or about .05%, actually came from executives. Put another way,…

Hey, it’s better than the Times’ headlines!  

At this point, I’m about done with the Times.

I’d be shocked if she agreed to a deal involving deportation. She has to know she’s a dead sparrow walking if she cooperates in the slightest. My wife and I were wondering why in the hell she’d talk, given what Putin’s organization does with exotic botanicals to those who fall out of line. Outside of witness…

It takes a Canadian.  Daniel Dale of the Toronto Star (who is a national treasure), regularly live-tweets Trump’s events and calls Trump’s lies what they are -- lies.      He also provides context, for example, describing how a Trump has modified a particular lie over time (see:  “US steel companies are opening X new…

The kid I played D&D with somehow got his hands on German porn mags, so this checks out.

Not for the reasons the adults taught you, but I’d blame Marilyn Manson for everything.  In a punchable face contest judged by me he’d come in a close second to Senator Blobfish.
