lots of smoke to this fire

Check out this thesis from JVL of the Bulwark in his daily email... Provocative Tim and Amanda are not persuaded by my argument that Pelosi and Schumer ought to name a building after Pence and then force Republicans to vote on resolutions praising him for his actions on January 6. But I am serious. How many House Republicans do you think would vote in favor of such a resolution? Whatever number you suggest, I’ll take the under. And it would be nice to have such a vote as a live issue that Republican Senate candidates to have to answer for. Ask Herschel Walker and the Thiel puppets if they think Mike Pence did the right thing on January 6. Make them explain why not. As Amanda likes to say: Prosecute the damn case. Mike Pence might be a hostile witness for the prosecution, but he’s a useful one. Democrats shouldn’t let him go to waste. They should hug Mike Pence—no matter how much he tries to wriggle out of their embrace—and use him to wedge the small number of gettable swing voters away from MAGA candidates. Now go ahead and flame me in the comments. I’m ready.

Mike Flynn is such an asshat...can you imagine thinking this is a good endorsement?

HOLY CRAP!

I wonder if he can win? he's endorsed by Jews for the GOP so...

Its convoluted. The guy was apparently appointed by the previous Poroshenko regime in Ukraine (yes, he is a Georgian politician) to be governor of Odessa. He quit because he was not a fan of the corruption the Poroshenko regime. https://americandiplomacy.web.unc.edu/2015/09/saakashvili-as-odessa-governor/ https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-58767420 https://www.state.gov/treatment-of-former-president-of-georgia-mikheil-saakashvili/ https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/11/05/mikheil-saakashvili-georgia-hunger-strike-washington-golden-boy/ I hate posts that run too long. I'll close by saying its interesting that a Desantis person would be tied to this guy who appeared to be the darling of the Neo-cons.

Some headline in the Detnews says that the Dems are staging a media witchhunt. Huh. That seems like a very lucrative position for a guy like Noah Finley to take.

The weird Desantis staffer who was working for a Georgian politician is apparently lobbying for one of the apparently non-putin politicians…fwiw

amused

I understand that the phrase Black Lives Matter are actually a cabal of socialist crooks. So there is that…if we could just legislate phrases.

the local place or the national chain are going to put out some bad pies from time to time. if the guy cooking it is a jerk and has been baking himself and doesn't give a damn. Nothing is more crushingly disappointing from a food perspective than poor pie.

I enjoy some Hungry Howies if its on offer. Papa Johns used to advertise without shame "made with sauce fresh out of the can" which clearly also included them adding Subway bread levels of additional glucose and fructose.

Semi-related: I hear some disregard Dominos but their artisan black box pies are pretty darn good. If only Tom Monohan hadn't destroyed the Detroit Tigers, Dave Brandon hadn't destroyed the Michigan Wolverines and Toys R Us.

Without diverging too far into the swamp of the pizza wars. I have not had the LC or Pizza Hut Detroit Style deep dish yet. Does that come anywhere close to the Buddy's/Buchemis level? Is it sending the wrong message to the kids? I also did not grow up with that as my model for pizza but only started to have it when visiting Michigan in the past 20 years. My model was Primo's and other round NY style which are not classic NY style now that I compare as a grown up. The perfected pizza of my youth was one that had some bite to the sauce and pepperoni. The sort of thing that a Papa Johns loses with their hate crime of a pizza intended for children and sororities.

I drove all over the United States, central Europe and elsewhere in APCs, jeeps, trucks, Hummers, and have had my fill of the road boats. I'm happy to be in something lower and more refined.

I've done the DC to Detroit drive in my family truckster (minivan and SUVs) and it sucks. I do it in my current car and its not a problem at all. The value of having a good car that handles the road seems to have been lost on the consumer who loves the SUV.

well now Very cool if true

Butterfield?

These guys are not good

So, instead of paying for all 162 games with your MLB subscription and your Directv. You have to pay for another service to watch a weekend game. FUCK ROB MANFRED!

is ever thus. It appears that the street fighting favors Ukraine but the Russians have ways of making streets into rubble.

Oh, we already played like shit in New York Shitty today?

When Speaker MTG impeaches President Biden and Manchin and Sinema are part of the 60 voting to remove: —President Harris chooses who for VP? — How long does she have before all that happens to her after the revocation of the 19th Amendment and her Administration is ruled unconstitutional on the grounds of her gender? Which Oddly does not impact MTG because it is revealed that the Supreme court rules she is an honorary male because she supports gun rights.

I wish the Volt were still on the market. My friend has one. Its a good size for passengers (could be a tad bigger), but has very good power and range. The gas engine gets him across country when necessary and he mostly uses the battery when he commutes.

YES
