Also, the roomie and I are finally watching Bill Maher from last night and shouting at the TV
His comment on Sotomayor "You put a bunch of Boomers on the court and then wonder why they Boomer!"
I don't think Ritchie Torres was prepared for this appearance lol.. he's approaching it like a Sunday morning show appearance and just looking to say the normal Dem talking points and expecting applause
It was precious when he completely glossed over lefty cancel culture to say some hurr-durr shit about Trump's "grasp" on the Republican Party when Bari Weiss is sitting RIGHT FUCKING THERE lol

IMPORTANT: Hunter & Joe Biden's 12/2013 trip to Beijing coincided w/then-Ukraine Pres (and Biden friend) Yanukovych's trip to Beijing. Right after that Biden volunteered to be Obama admin point on "keeping Russia from devouring Ukraine," according to NYT redstate.com/jenvanlaar/202…
Between 12/2013 and the time Yanukovych's government was toppled in Feb 2014, Biden spoke to him nine times, according to an AP report at the time. Hunter was in the process of being added to the board of Burisma, led by a Yanukovych ally nbcnews.com/storyline/ukra…
As we all know, this is also the time that Russia "annexed" Crimea, which Yanukovych half-heartedly decried from his exile in... Russia, where he was reportedly granted citizenship. Yanukovych was tried and convicted of treason in absentia in 2019. nytimes.com/2019/01/24/wor…

UPDATE on the Ted Lieu/proxy vote/Bermuda cruise story. Lieu missed the Build Back Better vote that was held during the time he was heading to the NYC cruise terminal for his luxury Thanksgiving cruise (yea vote cast by proxy), but there's more... redstate.com/jenvanlaar/202…
His campaign spent $8,600 on airfare in one day, August 3, 2021, just a few weeks after this special, limited-time cruise series was announced by Crystal Cruises. That's nearly half of what he spent this yr and 4x what he spent in all of 2020.
For contrast, Adam Schiff's campaign spent $6,000 on travel during the same time period in 2021. fec.gov/data/disbursem…

But I thought that the China Initiative was a racist Trump plot and was really just targeting"ethical violations" that universities and scientific journals should be monitoring (as a cover for racism, of course)? redstate.com/jenvanlaar/202…
This dude had the stones to claim he "forgot" that he brought bags of US cash back FROM China and had $200k in a Chinese bank account, and that he'd lied to his employer abt it all. THEN he sued Harvard for not standing by him, claiming they exploited him. Really. /2
Now his attorney is pulling the "terminally ill" card. Spare me.

Now which other researchers have been traveling back and forth to China with stacks of $100 bills in their bags? And how does the CCP get all this US currency? /3

Seriously living the life today. Writing about corrupt a-holes, good music playing in my headphones, but I can still hear granddaughter playing in the next room. Don't pinch me; I don't want to wake up
Just letting YouTube do its thing...
Aww yeah. In a month I'll be in Cancun listening to @dariusrucker and @HootieTweets

wait... the prosecutor put the drone footage on a thumb drive to send to the state crime lab but didn't think that's how he should provide it to the defense?? WTF? Now he's blaming the software on Ms. Wisco's phone?! This is disturbing. #Rittenhouse
The defense doesn't have an obligation to ask you for the drone video on a thumb drive or compact disk or floppy disk, Mr. Prosecutor! You have an obligation to give them the EXACT EVIDENCE you received - and the way you do that is a portable storage device and checking file size
I love that the captioning on Law & Crime translates ADA Binger as 88 Banger

So, Twitter, is this @GavinNewsom? In the 1st pic, look to the right of the bride, to the couple in the 2nd row I think it is. Gavin and Jen, next to London Breed? In the 2nd pic, look behind the bride's dad. Bride is Ivy Getty. vogue.com/slideshow/insi…
Actually looks like it's third row.
And, if it is him and his wife - and it absolutely looks like it is - why all the secrecy over the last 11 or so days? Why not just say, "I'm going to an event on the anniversary of the French Laundry dinner that makes the French Laundry look positively pedestrian"?
