I love him for scoring against Mexico in 2005. Otherwise, he's vanilla ice cream.

 

Lamb is the guy Fetterman beat in the primary in a race where the dividing line was progressive/left Dems vs centrist Dems, and pretty much nothing else. Yawn.

Conor Lamb, who lost to Fetterman in their Senate primary, says he campaigned as a different person than he is today.

“There is a head-spinning quality to it. He seems to be finding common cause with Joe Manchin, or at least acting like it,” Lamb saidhttps://t.co/nxkii5EwkP

During a sidebar about the relevance of Steve Bannon’s requests of Pecker, Steinglass admitted that New York Election Law 17-152, which prohibits conspiracies to promote a candidate’s election through unlawful means, is their “primary” predicate.

As a matter of fact, no, I’m not tired of us winning and them rake stepping.

HOW IT HAPPENED

1. Rs say no foreign aid without border security

2. Ds say nope

3. Rs say then no aid

4. Ds cave, cut a deal for tougher border laws with Lankford and McConnell

5. Trump tells them to kill it

6. Rs kill it

7. Rs pass foreign aid without the border security

Is this plausible?

Because many Republican strategists believe that millions of Russian troll farm comments are the electorate.

Just fixed my washing machine by disassembling its back panel and removing a sock from the water pump.

I now know how my ancestors felt when they killed a woolly mammoth.

Funny, all our former presidents enjoy their golden years of retirement just fine... and they didn't need immunity to do it either. https://t.co/imXX9B9lqy pic.twitter.com/3FeOmN3tyl

Strangely enough, I also have a single paid writing credit and it was also $25. But it was 1986 money, so I could have, I don't know, bought a car or something.

It was a review and strategy guide to the video game "Rescue on Fractalus". What a sweet game.

 

You mean the second most expensive spice coming from an exquisite orchid that must be hand-pollinated and harvested? High praise indeed.

 

Conor Lamb is sounding like a sore loser here...

 

My dad was into computers pretty early, like late 70s. He bought a computer book written by a charlatan. (This wasn’t unusual as it’s not like publishers at the time knew enough about computers to spot bullshit.). It was full of crap. (I’m just relaying the story as told to me.)

One of the terms in the book was “altered variable,” which wasn’t a thing. So in my dad’s published book review (I think in an airline magazine) there was a really funny line. As best I can remember it, he wrote, what is an altered variable? A neutered bisexual?

I don’t know if it’s funny today; I think it is because he’s just making fun of the writer. He wasn’t making fun of bisexuals or trans people.

I have not achieved that level of fame.

They need it so bad. They need anything slightly resembling a left-wing 1/6 to cancel out their guy sending brownshirts to the Capitol. So they can campaign for Trump and still get invited to Brian Grazer's pool party.

I managed to have a career out of writing for eight years. Starting in journalism in 2008, moving into PR in 2011, then transitioning to advertising in 2013.

Maybe now that America's elite institutions have fully embraced antisemitism, our moms will stop giving us shit for never getting into @Harvard, @Columbia or @MIT?

An excellent example of centering the lede.
"This case is about a criminal conspiracy. Trump orchestrated a criminal scheme to corrupt the 2016 presidential election. Then he covered up that criminal conspiracy by lying in his NY business records over and over and over again."

Biden is so old he just got every dime of Ukraine aid and humanitarian relief he asked for despite Republican and Trump resistance and along the way he managed to flip the politics on immigration just for the hell of it.
