  1. He gave himself cover to contradict her because he appointed an incompetent moron to DNI.
  2. Narcissist gonna narcissist.
  3. That technology would befuddle him.
  4. Is it also true that there aren’t any protests going on right now and the curfew was lifted?
  5. I’m on a phone. Why could I fix your links? Maybe it’s not your phone. Maybe it’s you.
  6. France was right.
  7. Nailed the blue points. I’ve heard of misty points. Not the others. I’m guessing most of the oysters I’ve had were Wellfleets but I have no way of knowing for sure.
  8. Which are which? I’ve seen this a lot on r/seafood where people will post a pic of a spread of oysters and say what all oysters they have. I have no idea which are which and it does me no good to know what oysters they have if I can’t tell one from another. My only guess is that the blue points are the four on the bottom row of the pic on the left and the one farthest to the right on the row above that. Is that correct?
  9. Jim Jordan — full of shit or totally believable?
  10. Will you still attach them to your fingertips and make claws out of them? Everybody else does that, right?
  11. It was probably irresponsible of my dad to take my brother, sister, and me to see that movie in the theater. Just a few years after the divorce, maybe he thought he was being the cool dad. Maybe it was okay for my older siblings but it scared the bejeezus out of me. And for some reason I had to sleep on an old military cot next to the bed that my brother had all to himself and I had nightmares about a big shark underneath me.
  12. Your AI overview doesn’t support your assertion. It just says we gave them money. When don’t we? It doesn’t say anything about Israel needing to be persuaded to support the invasion. Can you find any evidence to support that claim? I posted a video of Benjamin Netanyahu addressing congress and enthusiastically advocating the Bush administration’s position that Iraq had WMD’s and was on the verge of producing nuclear weapons. Sound familiar? (And Jesus, how the fuck is Netanyahu still around? He’s like Putin.)
  13. Can’t blame them for milking the U.S. for whatever they can get, especially when an unqualified evangelical dumbfuck like George W. Bush was president. But they never had the power to stop the invasion. And Netanyahu openly campaigned for it. Israel having to be bought off in order for the invasion to proceed wasn’t a thing.
  14. In the first Gulf War, George HW Bush convinced Israel not to respond to SCUD missile attacks launched by Saddam, trying to draw them into the conflict, for fear that it would fracture the coalition that included other Muslim countries. Israel complied. They were never, ever opposed to the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003. Not really a forgive and forget culture over there. (Anywhere in the region.) Great. The U.S. gave a bunch of money to Israel. That’s business as usual. Israel was never opposed to the war but they’re always happy to take our money. In 2003 the U.S. was more than happy to go it alone. Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld didn’t care much about coalition building. Even if Israel wanted to prevent the invasion, which I think the video I posted of Netanyahu addressing the U.S. congress and explicitly supporting it should pretty conclusively demonstrate that they never did, it wouldn’t have changed anything. They didn’t need to be bought off in order for the invasion to proceed.
  15. Huh? I recall Israel being an enthusiastic supporter of the invasion. Their prime minister, at least.
  16. Why do you say Hakeem Jeffries is a “fucking moron?”
  17. It’s real and that guy on the right is now the Secretary of Defense.
  18. But the staff had all been Doge’d.
  19. Here we go.
  20. Pravda for Republicans.
  21. That depends. Which Mexico are we talking about?
  22. “We don’t want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud.”
  23. You’d learn a valuable lesson from the latter, not so much from the former.
  24. Trump demonstrated that America is not to be trusted.
