Some of us called elder abuse 4 years ago.
It's literally been 'Weekend at Bernies' for 4 years. People need to be arrested.
posted by Dr Winston O'BoogieAgreed. He’s been out of it all along. But man, there’s nobody home now. He’s got that blank stare I see at my mother-in-law’s assisted living home. In a year, he won’t know he was president.
Nope, he’s perfectly lucid, just ask any democrat or the MSM.
I’m old enough to remember when Biden, his DOJ, and useless ass FBI said that white supremacy was the biggest threat to America.

posted by friendfromlowryI haven’t been able to get into the NBA much this season. I’ve barely watched. I guess I’m apart of the viewership issue they’re having.
It's like the NHL where I can't really watch until the playoffs. 82 game season where over half the teams make the postseason...there's just no real point to watch a never-ending deluge of mostly meaningless games where you don't even know who will play due to "load management" when there are so many other things I could be watching.

Yep.
Fortunately a lot of people are finally waking up it seems.
posted by Ironman92Very interesting. Wonder how much more his thoughts would be 40 years later?

Reagan was theoretically correct in his assertions. His plan, upon being elected, was hobbled in every manner. And not just by Dems, but some Republicans and even himself. The Dems couldn't let him turn out to be right, same with the Republicans who favored other avenues of governance and Reagan himself helped to create new positions in govt that expanded it. And above all of those forces was the war spending, without any declaration of war.
I say all of this as somebody who likes Reagan. He was the best orator president in my lifetime that united so many factions of voters. Better then Bill Clinton, better than Obama. And what he did with Gorbachev, among others, was THE keystone historical event in my lifetime. Hands down. To watch on tv, in real time, people swarming The Wall and tearing it apart - knowing and imagining what that meant to them - was something that I will never forget.
But back to the point. Our govt insists on protecting it's snowball momentum at all costs. It will take a vast shock to the system and a long period of austerity to ever get our corrupt govt to ever return to manageable levels again and I don't have any faith that Trump is the one to do it. He might be able to get things started, only to have the next president/Congress to reverse any advancements.
But yeah, Reagan was cute to have his ideals.

posted by Dr Winston O'BoogieI’d say most any person who cared to knew. The guy is worse off than someone in assisted living. He’s been shielded since before 2020.
Please don’t start in on the doctor thing again. Please.
The fact that the government and the media were complicit in hiding “Weekend at Bernie’s” for 4+ years should be investigated and anyone directly involved shouldn’t be alllowed anywhere near government again.
How’s that for not bringing it up again?

posted by AutomatikWhere is everyone going? And who is lucky enough to not have to deal with traveling?
I'm driving to Nashville Friday. Denver to Topeka is the first leg. 2 week trip with the primarily non-English speaking inlaws. I'm not thrilled about it, but Xmas Eve will be wild. Send T&Ps.
Best wishes.

posted by Dr Winston O'BoogieYou can make it sound as complex and sophisticated as you want. The long and short of it is a huge crowd rioted, broke into the building, ransacked and called for the heads of several people they didn’t like because they wouldn’t accept a legitimate election.
When you can't trust your government, and you can trust the supposed 'watchdog of government', then you have a real problem.
26 FBI plants at J6; imagine that.
Yet another conspiracy theory coming true as the left-wing narratives get shattered.

posted by iclfan2Disagree. It shouldn’t have gone past the grand jury. Having a sham trial and wasting everyone’s time is not how the justice system should work. Glad there wasn’t too much BLM outrage after the acquittal other than a few grifters.
I also found it weird that the jury took almost a week to deliberate, said they couldn’t agree on the higher charge, then when that was thrown out they acquitted on the lesser charge almost immediately. Strange.
This sounds like outrage:
A Black Lives Matter activist called on “black vigilantes” to avenge Jordan Neely’s death immediately following Daniel Penny’s acquittal Monday.
“People want to jump up and choke us and kill us for being loud, how about we do the same when they attempt to oppress us,” Walter ‘Hawk’ Newsome, a BLM leader who describes himself as Jordan Neely’s uncle and was in the courtroom every day of the trial, said outside the Manhattan courthouse.
“Just like everybody else seeks justice on their own. Just like everybody else has vigilantes. We need some black vigilantes,” he told reporters and protesters who had turned out daily in support of Neely during the weekslong trial.
“F—k America. How dare you laugh and cheer when someone gets away with murdering us,” Newsome added, apparently referencing the applause that erupted in the courtroom after the verdict. “Racists: burn in hell.”
