I've eaten relatively healthy these past couple days so...time to reward myself with cheesesteak round 2.
You just know a place called "Gooey Looies" is going to make a good cheesesteak.
I wish I was a little more shameless about filming because the color commentary as I eat this outside is just unbelievable. An old italian south philly man & woman (with the most perfectly stereotypical philly accents) just smoking cigarettes, holding court and opining on life.
Now we're on about the (lack of) trash collection. And taking away plastic bags from stores. Riveting.

Just circling back and, yet again, the 'no coup, nothing to see here, don't be hysterical' anti-anti-Trump GG-Tracey-Taibbi axis just straight up ignored the report. That's just what they do whenever something doesn't fit their narrative. Truly the most cowardly people.
And it's not like all these stories (that they keep burying their heads in the sand and pretending don't exist) are just some one off articles from like Newsweek or something....they don't even have plausible deniability to say, 'oh I didn't see that.'
The other thing is that they used to pretend that their opposition to any 'bad' Trump stories (especially when it came to the Russia stuff) was solely due to 'anonymous sources' but increasingly it's named sources, many under oath and...they still just ignore/disregard them.
This is just sick. I've run out of ways to describe how awful (and full of opinions masquerading as facts) the NYT & the political media has been...but this is just on another level. Utterly deranged.
Anddd she deleted. Can't wait to see that vaunted @nytpolitics social media guidelines in action. Any day now, they will do something. Just pretend she mocked a Republican. You can do it.
Sorry, she failed upwards to @washingtonpost. I regret the error.
Help me make a life-altering decision. What should I do for lunch:
(the falafel would be in a pita, just to clarify)
lol you people are just as indecisive as I am.
Since the poll is within the margin of error, think I'm just gonna make an executive decision and do the hoagie today. Save the falafel for next time. Thanks for the feedback.
I mean...yeah. It was totally obvious at the time how dumb all the purity tests were. The majority of the base just had no interest in fighting small differences that would never come close to becoming reality, even more so b/c of Trump.
But you had a super vocal minority that went around screaming about how like supporting Michael Bennett was akin to genocide or w/e. And the awful political media and debate moderators ran with it bc nothing is more thrilling to them than seeing the Dems tear each other apart.
Just a total waste of time.
Also don't think it was a coincidence that the candidate who won was the one who was absolutely the least interested in all of these silly fights.
*Trump partisan sycophant, who Trump nominated to his position does a thing*
Aha, it's clear that this guy is a rogue Deep State saboteur. A principled peace-man like Trump (who I do not support) would never!
Lol even the very article Glem cites explicitly says that Trump was the one who ordered but he is so pathologically wedded to the Trump Innocent narrative, he has to create some laughable 'Deep State' conspiracy.
During the good ol' "Russia Hoax" days, Glem used to knock all the people who took 'thinly sourced' stories like this one as blind partisans who would believe anything.......and in arguing with one of the authors of this piece, no less. But this one is different (confirms biases)
