News Item

While the establishment media reported Sunday from two confirmed sources that Manchin was resuming negotiations on Biden $1.9 trillion reconciliation package, the West Virginia senior told reporters the massive tax and spend plan was still dead.


Generalissimo Franco is also still dead.

[LarryBnDC]

The Answer  is no one.
Not one democrat.

ROFLMAO

Stop! You are killing me!

HaHaHaHa!

Here you go Bambu, here is some news, the firefighters in Australia have been posing for sexy pictures for a calendar for charity to raise money to help children's hospitals and for other charities, they have raised millions of dollars for charity.

Good for them.

The same thing could happen for the orphans in Mexico, etc, and they can invest the money in the ports in Mexico and then let the money from the ports go to help the orphans, etc. Every time goods go through the port the children can make money. And of course Mexico and others should have tariffs on imports to raise money for schools, hospitals, and to help the orphanages, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

Indeed.

Somehow, "The shifts uncertainty tamoxifen deutschland remanipulating exuberant fissures" makes as much sense as one of Red's posts. Has he adopted another identity?

[Holly Martins]

Exuberant fissures Uber Alles.

Meanwhile, below are some fair points about how EVs need improvement for handling cold weather.  Wonder if Almost EVs, with an emergency IC engine that runs on hydrogen or NG, would help in cold weather emergencies?

One year ago today the voters of Georgia rose up overcoming the suppression tactics of the GOP legislature and elected Democratic Senators Warnoch and Ossof delivering a slim 50/50 majority (with the VP vote deciding) but Democratic Senators Manchin and Sinema immediately dropped trou and pissed and pooped in the celebratory punch bowl.

Tell me how their efforts have helped the nation or empowered the party?

If our democracy survives they will not be remembered kindly.

Democratic MODERATES who went along with their bullshit are SUCKERS who have wasted the efforts of the most vulnerable voters in the nation and damned near killed the opportunity for a transformational moment for society.

[Holly Martins]

Manchin and Sinema (who technically dropped tutu, not trou) will be remembered as phony moralists.   The term virtue signaling is genuinely applicable to their pieties about deficits and inflation. 

RIP Blackberry, BTW. 

[facilitatorn]

They will be remembered as fecal matter similar to Chris Dodd and Joe Lieberman, catastrophic opportunists who set the nation back for personal gain, typical sellouts.

Journalist Dan Froomkin tweeted on Wednesday Not anticipating 1/6 violence wasn't an intelligence failure. It was racism. They couldn't imagine white people as a threat. That's what needs to change. Not more intelligence sharing, AKA adding to the bureaucracy of surveillance.

Manchin and Sinema (who technically dropped tutu, not trou) will be remembered as phony moralists. 

Actually those  two appear to be the only democrats with moral codes.

There is a whole bunch of strong language that was never subject to sunset in the Patriot Act that applies directly to trump, his family, staff, and active defenders.

For instance, you can take their shit and are not obliged to inform them that you did it. The working definition of terrorism therein encoded does not specify foreign or domestic. Contributing to causes actions or groups that use threat of harm to effect public policy or coerce population is funding terrorism. The surveillance provisions have expired, not the legal definitions or financial provisions imposed by the law. Those are still in effect.   

Shrub may have killed trumpism through his failure on 9/11.

This for instance is a group that can be seized and have its board and officers prosecuted under the aforementioned law.

In our battle against starvation...

People need to get back to the basics, instead of sitting around starving, starvation should never be an option. In Africa, wherever, you can grow food. You can use aguaducts like the Romans and you can bring water to where it is needed. And you can build dams, and you can make man-made lakes. The Peace Corps can help with projects to provide water, etc.

And for food, even cactus with scrambled eggs is better than starving, and you can add salsa and tortillas, that is what they eat in Mexico and they love it.

http://www.bhg.com/recipe/eggs/scrambled-eggs-with-cactus/

Chickens provide eggs. Cows provide milk, and you can make cheese. And people can grow cactus, and they can grow a garden, etc.

I tried to join the Peace Corps to go help the poor starving people, but they wanted me to get a Masters Degree before they would accept me, so I did not get to do it. But, I helped the poor and the orphans in Mexico with Youth For Christ, and I worked for the Burbank YMCA at a summer camp.

I know sometimes it is people who are making other people starve, such as was the case with the Potato Famine in Ireland, the British made the Irish starve, people could have sent food and help and seeds, etc, and pigs, and chickens, etc, to Ireland, and they should have never been poor and living on potatos anyway. And Irish cheese is some of the best cheese in the world, it is great on an omelette, all they need is cows and chickens and they can have cheese and eggs. Starvation is bullshit. Starvation is a man-made problem that does not need to happen.

The Peace Corps, and the Catholic Church, and others, the United Nations, and other groups, the YMCA, and others, Kiwanis, and others, can work together as a team to end starvation. And we need to stop any bully who would force people to starve. People need access to food and water and no one should be allowed to prevent people from having food and water.

Salute,

Tony V.
