I thought I had read something along the lines of a "definition of 'is'" thing going on, something about HB having last used drugs 10 or 11 days before that purchase, so he could with a straight face say that he was not at that time a user of illegal drugs since his use was in the past an...

Counting squares, I literally fell in the same box as Foggy. I'm too just-awoke and under-caffeinated to copy-pasta the picture. But just awake enough to wonder if Foggy and I should both be worried.

Is it wrong that reading those quotes, I kinda want to see if the genius who set some of Jones' previous rants to a Bon Iver-like music track will do a sequel?

Jen Psaki has James Comey on her show today. She did ask him his thoughts on difficulty housing tfg in a prison.

The thing that struck me is that Donnie wanted to be their candidate as well as the Republican one. I think he wanted to be able to say "I won the greatest vote total of any Libertarian Party candidate in history!!!" And, I think deep down he is not confident of his vote, so he was trying...
