Has anyone else noticed that #MOSecState #DennyHoskins looks a LOT like Mozzie, the “paranoid con artist” in the series WHITE COLLAR?
Last time I checked that “voice” is supposed to be a vote by Congress (representing the people of the U.S.), not G-d and certainly not #CorruptDementedTrump
Seems a simple choice: Trump could die before the coin is issued, or his toadies will be sued for breaking the law. Regardless, it’s more evidence that this Corrupt Demented Jackass thinks he’s above the law, and is the guy the Founders feared might rise with great wealth corrupting the republic.
“We disagree about many things, but agree that Todd Blanche is a waghid/schmuck who the Senate should reject.”
Spoke with a Guardian reporter yesterday about the #tax on #billionaires and related concerns about #excess #wealth. Link to article in 1st comment.
Is this job match right for me?!?!? Right answers only, and the more acidic and nasty the better.
For anyone curious about the meaning of Yiddish words, here's a good example of what we call a shonda.
Well, THAT is a new interpretation of the witchcraft trials. (Two corrections: they were hung, not burned, and more importantly were not killed because they were abortion providers.)
Perhaps she’s ok with the “right kind” of Jews, and only wants to incarcerate and castrate the “wrong kind.” Yeh, she’s an anti-semite who can fuck off into the sun.
NYTimes reports missed the opportunity to point out the rich irony that the “GW praying at Valley Forge” thing DIDN’T HAPPEN.
Comrades between Worcester and Boston, come hear me talk in Sudbury, Sunday May 31st. That’s the 31st, not the 21st, aaarrggh. But yes the dates in my talk will be correct!
Friends between Boston & Worcester, Sudbury is having an America250 celebration on May 16 & it looks like fun. (BTW, did you know the town's zip code is 01776?). Also, eight days later I'll be giving a talk there on "The Revolution and Native Peoples in Southern New England."
That’s because starting three decades so many universities stopping hiring new professors in place of those who retired.
Or they could just force convicts to listen to a Trump “speech.” Clearly torture barred by the Geneva Convention, so they’ll love it.
Mira, Joshua, and Barbara did this at the community Mimouna celebration.
Glad to see the book finally scheduled for publication, and to be part of a project with so many distinguished scholars. My chapter is on the impact of King Philip's War on New England (no surprise, right?), with a longer view to include the effects of the Glorious Revolution.
“Those big strong Iran diplomats came up to me with tears in their eyes.“ Riiggghhht. It’s a weird world in which the Iranian public statements are more trustworthy than the President, but that’s where we are with the Trump regime.
Did not mean to throw shade on cat videos, sez the guy who regularly posts pics of his felines on Facebook.
It’s increasingly obvious that our President is rapidly spiralling into dementia, making the corruption, ignorance, and narcissism even more of a problem. And now he is using the U.S. military as his toy in this war of his whim.
This year the Corrupt Jackass wants a whole week. If he had any sense of morality, I’d be wondering if he feels particularly guilty about some things.
