Yep. But he’s a republican politician - he still to be publicly racist even if it means insulting his partner’s heritage. That’s the job.

that the uninformed would mistake for an AK

I’m guessing the report about the type of rifle came from secret service who saw it.

According to that NYP article someone was a few holes ahead of trump with an ak47, secret service shot at them and they fled, dropping the gun. The suspect was then arrested in a traffic stop a 50 minute drive away from the golf course. I’ll believe it when I hear it from a credible source.

This article is bullshit from a disinfo website:

Alaska has been part of a push by Outside dark money coming from groups like UniteUs.org and FairVote.org to get ranked-choice voting in place in every state.

Republican voters, many of whom are not inclined to rank candidates. Ranked-choice voting favors the more malleable Democrat voters

This makes absolutely no sense. Not inclined to rank candidates? What the fuck does that mean? Humans rank things. We have preferences. Malleable voters is also absolute nonsense.

Ranked choice favors the candidate that the majority of voters support. Republicans oppose it because they want to win seats where the majority of voters don’t want their candidates or policies.

If it were only a handful of people this wouldn’t be happening. It usually takes an appreciative audience for people to feel emboldened to leap from rhetoric to calling in a threat or actually committing racist violence.

Given trump’s persistent support, it could be that 40% of the country see this and think, like Lucille Bluth, good on her. Or that’s what I worry about anyway.

Having thoughts of suicide is not the same thing as committing to an act of protest that may take your life.

Our town…

Do you mean Babylon, Marduk?

He’s taking a principled stand in favor of the rule of law. It’s important to our nation’s soul that there’s a legal memo written before we brutalize and torture people.

Lynch’s business partner who was also involved in defrauding HP was killed in a hit and run while jogging 2 days before Lynch’s yacht went down.

Those are easy:

A grifter.

The true Roman way.

Plato’s Republic.

Increasingly complex chemical interactions around thermal vents.

Some rich guy.

Nope.

”pre-emptive" now means brutal and unnecessary violence designed to save the political career of a tyrant?

Even CNN felt the need to scare-quote the term in the headline and the article, since it’s obviously a lie.

A friend of mine had his phone snatched on the bus, so he had me call his phone and pretend to be the phone company, telling the thief that he’d won a new phone and I just needed his address.

The police were very happy that we’d done their job for them, and they got his phone back.

“It went down, not in one minute as some scientists have said. It went down in 16 minutes,” Costantino told the Financial Times. “You can see it from the charts, from the [Automatic Identification System] tracking chart.”

Business Insider could not independently verify his statement.

The yacht maker offered no proof, so we’ll have to wait and see if it’s yet another rich person lying.

Speaking of rich people lying, Mike Lynch and his VP of finance, Stephen Chamberlain, were accused of using fraud to overvalue their company before selling it to HP, who wanted $5b in damages.

They were acquitted last month. Chamberlain was killed by a car while jogging, two days before Lynch’s yacht went down.
