(1) Let’s take a quick dig into government spending to see if that wall makes more sense than some of our other spending habits. #Schumer #SpeakerPelosi #BuildTheDamnWallNow
(2) Washington DC spends $92 billion on corporate welfare compared to $71 billion on homeland security. Interesting....
(3) Washington DC spends $25 billion every year maintaining unused or empty federal properties. Sound like we found a great place to put our homeless population.
(4) I almost didn’t believe this one! Who voted for this? Washington will spend $2.6 million training Chinese prostitutes to drink more responsibly on the job.cnsnews.com/news/article/u…
(5) Washington DC Farm Program Pays $1.3 Billion to People Who Don't Farm

(6) Washington DC spent at least $518,000 in federal grants to study how cocaine affects the sexual behavior of Japanese quails. Where’s Mitch McConnell?

(7) I wonder if Nancy takes classes here? Yoga Classes for Federal Bureaucrats: $150,000

(8) #BillPosey has a great list here. Just one of them Taxpayer Funded Political Ads on MSNBC: $495,000 was spent to air commercials touting the Obama administration “green training” job efforts

(9) @RandPaul is a master of finding wasteful spending. Washington DC providing over $76 million in stipends to soldiers in the Somali National Army, devoting over $650,000 to develop a drama series to air in Afghanistan.
(10) More @RandPaul Washington DC spending up to $1 million on helping support and develop the legislative process in Libya, and setting aside $18 million to support tourism in Egypt.

Chuckles & Nancy didn't want the cameras in, they want another CR so they can pack it with 🐷 AGAIN.
The troops are funded. Shut it down Mr President.
Nancy has lied since 1987. Someone with some mad editing skills should do a loop of all of them saying they'd secure the border
#NationalSecurity is defending our borders. #FundTheWall 🇺🇸

Washington DC is the Septic Drain Field of America, a giant sewage system housing every power hungry, money hungry, blood sucking politician. They will do mostly anything to be apart of the “club” they swear to uphold the constitution, however swear at it. #DC #Swamp
People go there to bring change and in a matter of months are changed! #DC #Swamp
Not just the politicians, the organizations, all hell bent of controlling the system, from think tanks to government agencies, operating outside of the constitution. DC is filled with alphabet agencies, including alphabet news agencies, all under control of the cabal!

My favorite part of the World Cup is becoming the humiliating defeat of mathematical economists of banks and media.
Meanwhile this entirely non-mathematical economist had this to say of Germany's chances:

Just imagine how much security could be added to the bitcoin network if we stopped wasting power on these stupid simulations and used it to mine bitcoin instead!
Won't nobody think of the children? #StopEconomicSimulationsNOW

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full

Almost all of the Road Runner cartoons are available via the @BoomerangToons app.

I subscribed for $5 & decided I'm gonna watch & tweet about 'em all in chronological order, even the later, terrible ones, for which I have an irrational affection.

Here we go.

Boomerang lists them alphabetically not chronologically so Chuck Jones masterpieces sit side-by-side with 1960s atrocities (& later 'revival' attempts.)

I am going to start at the beginning. I will also be including Wile E. Coyote/Bugs Bunny & Ralph Wolf/Sam Sheepdog shorts, FYI
September 17, 1949: "Fast And Furry-ous"

Chuck Jones intended this short to be a parody of cat & mouse "chase" cartoons. Instead, he accidentally created the definitive chase cartoon series of all time.
