Exactly, the difference between the comparison his lawyer is trying to make to Jack Nicholson is that people watch his movies, but with an understanding that he is playing a character. Jones is filling impressionable people’s heads with misinformation that they then use to vote with, or in the case of Pizzagate,…

This also ties with in the tendency people have to blame the victim in these situations, like that Louisville paper that was foolishly trying to push some story the next day day about the doctor’s “troubled past.”
I hadn’t heard of this until now, but thanks, it’s brilliant.
If I were a conspiracy theorist (and I may be becoming one, thanks to this idiot in the WH), I would say they did this as a test run for North Korea, who are rumored to be preparing for an underground nuclear weapon test this weekend.
Rick Wilson is possibly one of the most entertaining people on Twitter.
Weren’t they glued to Fox before Obama was elected though, and after?. I mean, for me personally, I watch Rachel Maddow just about every night, but that’s not new. What is new that I now follow some accounts on Twitter that border on conspiracy theorists (Louise Mensch, John Schindler, th3j3st3r) but they have been…
I know exactly what you mean.
I also recommend John Schindler and th3 j3st3r
I don’t know, if you look at what a lot of IC experts are saying, FBI has the info it needs to prosecute now, but they can’t yet because classified and Top Secret intel is inadmissible in court. I wan to believe the counter intel out is still on this, and this leak about Page seems promising.
To be fair, Perez has a point. We just endured a Presidential election where the Democratic nominee had a primary challenger accusing her of taking too much money from special interests, so at some point the party has to decide what it wants to be: the party who can raise tons of money or the party who tells mega…
Exactly. It should be simple math for them: take all the money you’ve made on overbooking in say, the most recent quarter. Start increasing your offer. Still profitable? Good.
I tend to agree with you, but the cynical part of me wants to say “fuck it, after watching the Republicans act like crybabies for 8 years and running on nothing more than I’m The Most Opposed To Obama, when they have the albatross of an unpopular president hanging off of them, you take advantage of that.”
I have never used Airbnb but have been to Paris several times, and I would say if you can afford it, stick to the hotels. Airbnb just seems too risky to me.
Yeah, I was thinking the same. This is certainly a big story, but I’m having a hard time seeing him get immunity at this point.
And Scooter Libby was even pardoned!
Because by accepting the nomination, she becomes the standard bearer of the party and its platform, which means the question of how she will vote on those issues is settled. Second, the cult of personality we have now, where people believe they are voting for the rock star versus the party, is how we got here. How…
What about Oy?!
The criticism for not visiting certain states enough is ridiculous. I live in New York, and it is an accepted fact among those of us that live here that we will probably never see a Democratic presidential candidate set foot in this state. Why? Because New York is not a contested state, it has won by Democrats in…
Key words there being “she came across as” not she actually was any of those things. If you look at her actual policy proposals, it’s pretty clear she was not the conservative monster Bernie and Jill wanted us to believe she was.
