I can’t imagine what sort of chemical wizardry it would take to make it fair for Lasha Talakhadze to compete against female weightlifters. He can throw 580 lbs over his head.

It’s the anti-war thing mostly. The Democratic Party converted or purged 99% of its anti-war crowd during the Obama years, so those of us who stayed anti-war have a soft spot for Tulsi.

Testosterone is a thing, whether you want it to be or not. Compare weightlifting records for biological men and women. The differences are vast, especially in drug-tested competition. Making cis women compete against trans women in weightlifting would be embarrassing for everyone involved, athletes included.

You’re arguing on behalf of Wall Street.

the mistake in Libya, as Obama pointed out, was not intervention, but a lack of follow-up

I don’t give a shit, specifically because this was briefing about Afghanistan — a failed war that should have ended more than a decade ago. The U.S. intelligence community has a long well-documented history of spewing optimistic bullshit about Afghanistan to keep the war going indefinitely. I’d give Trump major props…

I don’t suppose the people who worship the turds that fall from Obama’s ass have developed any curiosity about why his Department of Justice put no Wall Street executives in jail for nearly destroying the world economy back in 2008.

Ridiculous. Obama was President of the United States for eight years and didn’t get jack shit done on police reform, but somehow he feels qualified to advise professional athletes on how to do it. If NBA players are dumb enough to listen to Obama, they deserve what they get.

the right seems so much more loyal to Republicans than the left to Democrats.

Can anyone make heads or tails of what Angela Davis stands for anymore? She’s an adoring fan of Barack Obama, AND she claims to be an ideological comrade of Occupy. It’s incoherence. Obama and Occupy are as ideologically far apart as you can get. Obama would probably even tell you that. Ta-Nehisi Coates suffers from…

I watched the whole series twice when it came out and eagerly anticipated more episodes. Still bummed that it got cancelled.

Does anyone really believe the AOC thing was just an innocent misunderstanding? I mean, c’mon man! This was a learning experience for her. She now knows the Democratic Establishment plays dirty and she’d better watch her back..

The DNC got 5 or 6 Republicans to speak, meanwhile the left wing of the Democratic Party had one member speak for 60 seconds, and the DNC tried to ratfuck that person!  Clearly the DNC values Republicans more than its own left wing.

NBC was “confused?” Dude. Don’t be so naive. AOC is a major threat to the Democratic establishment. She could run for President as soon as 2024. Frankly I’m disappointed in her that she couldn’t see this ratfucking coming her way. She was set up to look like a troublemaker and a loose cannon. I hope she learned…

It seems lots of people have misinterpreted the Anthony quote over the years. I’d never seen it before today. I thought the meaning was unclear, though admittedly it does sound racist at first glance.

I think the quote is out of context. The formulation sounded vague to me, so I googled and found this:

As usual, the elephant in the room is Kamala’s disastrous 2020 presidential run. Everyone on the Democratic side acts like it never happened.  There are multiple theories that could explain what went wrong, and none of them are pleasant to think about. So nobody goes there.

The Washington Post says Kamala has “genuine star power.” I guess we’re supposed to forget that her presidential campaign went over like the Hindenburg.

He’s slowed down and he misspeaks, that’s for sure, but he’s not an i-cant-walk-down-a-ramp, or get-my-golf-cart kind of decrepit yet.

Harris will not be an ordinary VP. Biden is tired and senile and everyone knows he won’t be fit enough to run for a 2nd term. I fully expect Biden to resign not long after the 2022 midterms, so Harris will get some time as the official President, after having performed the role unofficially while Joe napped and drooled…
