  1. He’s not crying’ over Biden. He just lost his binky 😒
  2. To prove that the prospective new citizens are smarter than a Fifth-grader?
  3. Not by DJT, he isn’t. Latest side-by-side has Biden trailing by 2 points, well within the margin of error. Against Nikki Haley, however, he’s trailing by 16 points 😳
  4. Rather they were focused on the damage to democracy for preventing the electorate having their say in an election. ironic that, for all their bleating about a DJT presidency destroying democracy, his opponents are the ones trying to circumvent the democratic process. 😒
  5. In a sane world, he wouldn’t. But this is America. 😒
  6. I’d like to see the 49’ers do it just so Mr. Irrelevant can win a Superbowl. 😎 That and Patrick Mahomes has benefitted from other teams self-destructing in the playoffs. This year KC is overrated. Ooh, and Taylor Swift might need new stuff to complain about, rather than dissing her exes 🤣
  7. At the end of the day, it all comes down to gravity. 🙁
  8. I thought Jerry Nadler was still in the House of Representatives? 🤔
  9. I’m including: The state of confusion The state of shock The state of indecision The state of my kid’s bedroom The plasma state of matter The state of the Patriots’ offense … and … The State of Independence (the Jon and Vangelis version)
  10. New Jersey is way too high. 😒 Should be at least 57th, if not lower.
  11. Just 10 degrees? Pah! I would spit on your 10 degrees, but my saliva would freeze in the -7 degree cold, which felt like -25 after factoring in the wind chill 🥶
  12. Good. As soon as they are out of the doors, self-identifying as terrorist sympathisers, lock the doors, shut down their access and hire new people. Problem solved.
  13. I thought Jerry Nadler was still with us? 🤔
  14. And the White House is complaining that Border Patrol can’t do its job, Democrats are complying that Texas is usurping Federal border control, everyone connected with illegal immigration is up in arms. Except the Border Patrol Union. The union for the people on the front line have welcomed the involvement of the Texas National Guard as a force multiplier, helping them do their job. Whimsy be the White House are looking at the wrong job description? 🤔
  15. The basic design is almost 60 years old. Boeing have stretched it and re-engined it twice now, but the original design, especially the ground clearance, has made each upgrade into one giant workaround. Right about now, I bet Boeing wish they had gone for a clean sheet design after the NG series planes.
  16. Bunch of idiots. ”up with liberation, down with occupation” Gaza needed no liberation (from Israel) as they gave it all back in 2005. Now, if they were talking about liberation from Hamas …
  17. The world’s most popular airliner is in trouble again. After Alaska Flight 1282 on Jan 5th lost a “permanently” secured exit hatch on climb out, a number of airlines are grounding the type again due to safety concerns Watch: Inside Alaska Airlines plane after part blows off mid-air https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-67900834 Thankfully this time the flight was still in its initial climb-out, low enough to avoid explosive decompression, with all passengers seated and belted in. Boeing must be thanking their lucky stars this didn’t happen at 38,000 ft. The continuing quality control issues at Boeing must be making the execs at Airbus more than a little happy right now.
  18. As SCOTUS has declined to hear Jack Smith’s motion immediately, his case is almost certain to be delayed, which, in and of itself, is a big win for DJT’s team. The Meese amicus brief (I never knew multiple moose ever went to law school) could be the icing on the cake. If heard directly by SCOTUS, I believe it has a chance to succeed and, if it rules that the Meese argument is correct in its interpretation of the law, not only does Jack Smith’s prosecution fail, but AG Garland’s position would be untenable. Not only that, such a ruling would reinforce the opinion that this was a political hit job. It is likely that every other case against DJT would be tainted by the fallout. A guaranteed outcome would be that DJT’s poll numbers would soar. It’s also possible that the fallout would reach as far as the White House, with Brandon being advised that the writing was on the wall and to withdraw from the 2024 race. The permutations are endless.
  19. I watched 90 seconds of this debate, before reaching my limit or irritation with both of the idiots (idiot is way too kind for the moderator) and changing the channel to re-runs of the X-Files (which make far more sense) 😒
  20. I can’t. I’m allergic to giving politicians credit for anything 🤢
  21. Pick the senator no-one on the D side can go after (sympathy vote) to say the things other vulnerable senators can’t. 😒 Dr.Oz was an idiot, but this guy is unfit for elected office.
  22. Why do the anti-immigration parties have to be labeled as far-right? Because the media need to make you fear the message, and the easiest way to do that is to fear the messenger. What 99% of high-education, low-information voters miss completely, often willfully, is that for all his evil, Hitler was a socialist and that Marxist/Communist/Socialist/Left Wing ideology has resulted in the deaths of far more human beings than Fascism/Right Wing politics. Not that I support the right, being an Independent, but the level of cognitive ignorance in the USA is mind-blowing.
