Do your brown shirts come back from the cleaners on hangers or bo(x)ed?


He said - knowing that if he was in front of the man he'd have his teeth knocked in.

Internet machismo. Such a good look for you, Kid.

If anyone here remembers rbloom, the mets fan, when we had Mets fan on Elba, he would tell you what a great guy kid is, since Rick actually took time to meet kid.

I met Rick at Citi Field at a Mets-Phillies game a few years ago, and then later I met him to play golf somewhere in Westchester County with Lenny (some of you may remember him, too).

They both told me that they'd met Kid and thought very highly of him. They also provided photographic evidence that Kid wouldn't need "internet machismo", if you actually met him. Enough photographic evidence, too, Professor Josh to show that Kid would kick your ass to the curb six ways from Sunday. But only if you gave him reason.

From what I've gathered through the years, he's one of the guys here with whom one would really want to have a beer.



 They were nice folks, those Mets fans Rick especially---but sadly all the Mets fans left for other parts.

House Republican member Rosendale:


“I voted against a bill that would make Juneteenth National Independence Day a federal holiday. One of 14 Republicans to do so.

This legislation is the culmination of decades of efforts by the Left to prevent unashamed celebrations of our national story, heritage, and history.

Their intent is to replace the Fourth of July with this new day, one that will inevitably focus on America's darkest moments.

We're not perfect as a country, but we are a great nation, morally, economically, culturally, and in many other ways besides. I will never support efforts to pull down that legacy and replace it with self-hatred.”

Motherfucking snowflakes... maybe he’s afraid there will be some ‘transfer of wealth.’

McConnell is pushing Manchin into a position where he’ll say he supports suspending the filibuster until republicans replace Mitch and his leadership team with a totally new leadership team that will let Republican Senators do their work.

It will be the wise, sensible, obvious, right of center choice in the face of the ongoing insurrection.

I’ve said the thing about shirts to you on many occasions and if you were standing in front of me I’d say it to your face with both hands on the rollerater I’m using to build back my strength.

You probably could smack me in the teeth.

You’d better have a damn fine lawyer because I have quite a few,

Got any proof of what you claim?

[kidcarter8]

Amazing how triggered motherfuckers get when ever black folks receive even a whiff of recognition.

This is a big deal. The nation is celebrating the end of chattel slavery but let’s scoff and bitch because some one might some how someway get recognized for the sacrifices of the ancestors.

The irony of the day is while the President was signing the law designating the holiday in the Executive Mansion constructed by enslaved laborers the Senate Minority Leader vowed to block any Voting Rights legislation.

White America needs to grow the fuck up.

I am down for anything as long as the highways arent blocked

Seeing that we as a nation are just a day away from a new national holiday that most of us have never celebrated, and as of Saturday we will be, I want to be appropriate and not to offend my drinking buddy the Professor, a distinguished man of color and letters, that usually manages to spell F-U-C-K O-F-F. 

He's a funny and profane SOB. 

So first off is there a traditional greeting? 

Have a good teenth?

Happy 19th?

Happy Holiday?

or?

Once we have the Juneteenth Automobile Sale at your local Toyota Dealer, and you'll know that is really is an American holiday. Until then, Tom Hanks and the rest of us incorrigible white folks need to take a seat in the back of the bus and wait to see what we're allowed to say, wear, eat, and do. I'm sure it will involve some kind of transfer of wealth.

It will be interesting to see how or how long until corporations try and monetize this new national holiday.

Hey Larry will you be offended if Toyota has a Juneteenth, Emancipation from MSRP sale-a-thon?

You mean like Presidents Day, Veterans Day, Memorial Day, July Fourth, Labor Day, MLK Day?

Why would I?

This is America, after all.

I was mostly serious.

And I don't associate MLK Day with special retail sales like President's Day, Memorial Day or the 4th.

Although there is "Black Friday"

Its a joke Larry.

MLK was assassinated, so turning him into a take 25% off or BOGO event seems tacky and wrong. 

Real question-Do you think there would be blowback with the monetization of Juneteenth, or "its what we do"?

Tacky and wrong “is what we do.”

Wake up, Banks

Larry I'm woke enough to understand my asking the question was probably going to offend you.

So first, using my experience as a shopper, and granted I'm not a huge shopper, I do not see or experience MLK Day as the retail event as the other holidays I mentioned.

And then I googled "MLK DAY Sales" and found this

https://deals.usnews.com/articles/best-sales-for-mlk-day-weekend




and according to the article

MLK weekend isn't a major shopping event compared to other long weekends, such as Memorial Day and Labor Day. If you're looking for sales, know that relatively few retailers advertise their sales that weekend as "MLK Day sales."


So as I posted, most retailers do not directly cash in on and monetize the MLK name, as many people might get offended, but as its a long week-end with a day-off, there are sales. 


Happy teenth Larry.

[REDSTATEWARD]

And when they do Fox News will devote hours to the “War on Juneteenth”. Wait.

Why?

I’m not offended. I’m telling you what I know.

Meanwhile the Today Show promoted MLK day sales.

”we've got you covered with some of the best Martin Luther King Jr. day sales happing this weekend. We're talking brands across the board, including Express, Casper, Ulta, The Home Depot and more”.


MLK Day doesn’t go all out with the Stars and Stripes bunting but it is as commercial as any other holiday.

By the way:

When I was coming up it was called “Jubilee Day”

So happy Jubilee!

Wrong again kid.

It is fact not the fiction you wish it was.

And it was reported in March 2020, well before we knew the depths of virus hell that Trump's incompetence and insanity would lead us to.

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-china-cdc-exclusiv/exclusive-u-s-slashed-cdc-staff-inside-china-prior-to-coronavirus-outbreak-idUSKBN21C3N5



WASHINGTON(Reuters) - The Trump administration cut staff by more than two-thirds at a key U.S. public health agency operating inside China, as part of a larger rollback of U.S.-funded health and science experts on the ground there leading up to the coronavirus outbreak, Reuters has learned.

Most of the reductions were made at the Beijing office of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and occurred over the past two years, according to public CDC documents viewed by Reuters and interviews with four people familiar with the drawdown.


The Atlanta-based CDC, America’s preeminent disease fighting agency, provides public health assistance to nations around the world and works with them to help stop outbreaks of contagious diseases from spreading globally. It has worked in China for 30 years.
