[matt - deplore me if you must]

Ig, get up, dust yourself off and get back in the saddle. I believe there is a rural/farm based dating site that might help. I think they accept loggers as well. I am confident that you will find the one out there one of these days.

According to the Leftists, they are representing the true will of the people and so the Trumpnazis are clearly in the minority and must die. Now get down on the floor and do the tantrum.....

Diversion, distraction and disinformation.

What's the 4th D?

https://burnaway.org/feature/memorial-drive-the-impact-and-context-of-the-orly-plane-crash/ is also good on just how impactful the crash was. I had never heard that terrible malcolm x quote or that the crash prompted an andy warhol painting.

During the same trip, Torshin and Butina also participated in a private “off the record” discussion at the center about the “Russian financial situation and its impact on Russian politics,” according to people familiar with the meeting and the think tank’s report. That event was moderated by the group’s chairman emeritus, former AIG CEO Maurice “Hank” Greenberg, the report showed. Greenberg did not return calls for comment.

Among the think tank’s board members is David Keene, a former NRA president and former chairman of the American Conservative Union. Keene has previously been photographed alongside Butina at events.

Paul Saunders, the think tank’s executive director, said Torshin spoke at an April 2015 event about the Russian banking system and Butina attended. Saunders said people at the organization cannot recall details of Torshin’s presentation.

“We were unaware of any charges or suspicions of illegal or inappropriate conduct or of any connections to Russian intelligence services,” Saunders said in an email.

Prosecutors said the think tank’s magazine published an article by Butina in June 2015 in which she said “certain U.S. politicians and Russians share many common interests.”

Randy Weber, a Republican U.S. congressman from Texas, also met with Torshin during the April trip, according to the think tank’s documents. A spokeswoman for Weber did not respond to multiple calls or emails seeking comment.

Wonderful Pieces today, Clarice!

Best wishes to Caro & Ed!

Ig, it's better to find out sooner rather than later like I did
I still hate it when good people are gaslighted! This wasn't the one but your second soul mate is out there somewhere and what you deserve will definitely happen - you'll see

So what a month it's been eh? Holy smoke! We have front row seats & get to watch the left treasonous scum squirm & choke & hopefully be carted away in handcuffs as the masses begin to understand why PDJT tweets!
Let's let this pile receive no due process & see how it feels for each of these criminals! I'd like to punch each of them right in the nose!
Have a good week everyone.

Sundance is just as invested in this slo motion pantomime by Sleepy Jeff as anyone so he can build up his army of click monkeys to tell him how brilliant he is to be able to connect more than two dots, unlike McCarthy. Levin has had this laid out for over a year so count me as very unimpressed with everything this cottage industry of new commentariat has breathlessly arrived at.

Rubio is not bright. He thinks he is bright.
He is not bright. Rubio likes Rubio. He likes to hear himself talk. He loves to be on camera.
Rubio is not bright.

Yes, he is McSHITSTAIN LITE.

It really depends on what you grew up with, like Momma's cooking.

True. I grew up in NYC and Gardner's was my first real taste of Eastern NC. I agree the Brunswick stew was mushy, but the buffet was great. Haven't been there in quite a while, unfortunately.

So Ralph knows Rocky Mount. Ever have breakfast at the Benvenue Grill? :-)

Ignazi still has Farmers Dot Com.

Plenty of home schooled dolts to make a man feel intellectually adequate.

Next thing you know the JOMettes will turn up at Iggy's door like Norwegian-Americans in Minnesota and Wisconsin with carloads of casseroles. LOCK YOUR DOOR, Iggy, the matchmakers are assembling!

GUS just trolls JOM for new Male meat.

[Weaker under Trump]

For me, as an outspoken conservative for the last four decades, the experience has been vertiginous. On one issue after another – from Russia and free trade to corruption and the rule of law – Republicans have adjusted their principles to conform with Trumpism, which often means with Trump’s latest glandular impulse.

The biggest Trump resignations and firings so far

I came of age watching Ronald Reagan call on Mikhail Gorbachev to “tear down this wall”, as he reasserted America’s role as leader of the free world. Last week we saw Trump insult our allies, undermine our friends and truckle to the Russian autocrat.

Given a chance to hold Russia accountable for its attacks on the American election, its annexation of Crimea, its aggression in Ukraine, its role as an enabler of Syria’s Bashar al-Assad, or the murder of journalists and political opponents, Trump chose instead to blame “both sides”:

Yes I do. I hold both countries responsible.

I think that the United States has been foolish. I think we’ve all been foolish …

And I think we’re all to blame.

It is impossible to imagine Reagan or, frankly, any other US president, giving that answer, and it is easy to imagine the outrage among conservatives if Barack Obama had uttered those words. This was not an errant tweet, or one of Trump’s random insults, outrages or assaults on the truth. Trump’s behavior risked undermining the global world order, alienating our friends and emboldening our enemies..

Count me as very unimpressed with the old commentariat.
I'm a click monkey for the new guys.

[sbwaters]

Puffery, flummery, and noise.

[Jack is Back!]

Clarice,

If the matchmakers were smart they'd show up at Iggy's door with a Thermomix. Nothing works on snaring a girl like a guy who owns a Thermomix, and knows how to use it.:)

Rubio is making himself irrelevant. He said he wasn't going to run. He ran. Now he's trying to separate himself from the PACK. He has.
He's chosen to be a farce. Congratulations Lil Ricky, Lucy would be very proud.

New thread

[Dr. Weevil]

If you're going to cut and paste something someone else wrote, 'Weaker under Trump', you need to (a) put it in quotation marks and say who wrote it, or (b) cover your tracks by deleting "The biggest Trump resignations and firings so far / Read more", which makes the borrowing obvious. The former would be more honest, the latter would make you a minimally competent plagiarist. Doing neither makes you look crooked and stupid.

I was just about to polish up the old reliable 27 page questionnaire for a potential new Frontier Woman
It sure worked wonders for my 4/5 brothers :D

Words fail, Ig. Thank you, Lord she revealed her true self in time. We'll be praying that God grant you patience and discernment, dear Ig.
