McConnell, now nearing his 82nd birthday, is determined to fund the Ukrainian war effort, a push his allies have depicted as legacy-defining.

Sorry, Mitch, but that ship has sailed. Your legacy as "Trump's penis butler" is cemented for all time. Nothing else you do, or did, counts. Nothing you accomplished matters. If you're remembered at all it will be as a craven traitor.

In making the announcement on the Tony Kinnett show, livestreamed on YouTube, Rokita stated that investigators would pore over submissions and post any they believed to be credible onto a publicly viewable database.

In other words, they're not going to act on the ones that don't align with their own political ideology.

I'd like to see Tucker interview Jon Stewart again.

As if US history began in 1945. /s

We've been deeper in debt, less literate, less equal, less patriotic, and the political system has been more broken. None of items the article brings up are actually new or unprecedented.

This popped up over the weekend on my work PC. It was an emergency and I absolutely needed to get to my desktop ASAP.

Nope. Full screen advertisement for Windows 11 demanding my immediate and undivided attention. Blocking all other functions, commands, and inputs. I must interact with this ad or else I cannot use my computer.

Fuck. That.

I am never installing Windows 11. I am never buying another Microsoft operating system. Specifically because of this sort of heavy-handed dark patterned bullshit. Not to mention the fact that Windows 10 is dog shit.

It was never about the border. It was never about Ukraine aid. It's about hurting Americans in hopes that they'll blame Biden.

Wings down is battle stance. I want to see warp drive stance.

Because no one would want to loan them money after that.

Kind of OT, but it's funny they liken it to straightening the Tower of Pisa. The Tower's tilt was partially reversed and stabilized about 20 years ago.

Fucking spam has ruined another communications medium.

I wonder if she realizes that would include revoking her right to vote.

The Bible condones slavery. And many slave holders invoked the Bible to justify slavery.

From Frederick Douglas' first autobiography:

Were I to be again reduced to the chains of slavery, next to that enslavement, I should regard being the slave of a religious master the greatest calamity that could befall me. For of all slaveholders with whom I have ever met, religious slaveholders are the worst. I have ever found them the meanest and basest, the most cruel and cowardly, of all others.

What you would say with irony, I say with conviction.

Full blown de jure chattel slavery? Yes, I would be surprised.

Slavery didn't end because people realized it was bad. They always knew that. It ended because of the industrial revolution.

A decent person would be ashamed of themselves.

(Hint: he's not)

Of course it's a Republican. Really scraping the bottom of the culture war barrel now.
