Be careful, Addie. Mexco's not that far away,

If forced to pick someone on this forum who most closely represents my own values I'd pick Addie. She's a treasure.

I think CRJ may be missing the opportunity of a lifetime. Now that he's fully self-ejumacated in landlord-tenant law, he should demand an appointment as Deputy Pooh-Bah and Lord High Legal Adviser to Ben Carson at HUD. I'm sure that the courts would start taking his filings seriously if he held a co...

Aw geez. All my best to the SuesDB.

It didn't take this latest incident to convince me that United has become a terrible airline. It's the pits.

A very good reason indeed.

I say go for it and enjoy!

As for the cost per pound of fish, fuggedaboudit.

I think he means blivet.

Yes, quite.

Stephan Miller is the next one who should be thrown under the bus. But he won't be.

This fucking 31-year-old profoundly ignorant "boy genius" will probably continue to rise for awhile before he goes splat on the ground.

The Shitgibbon's ability to find the worst of the worst is unprecedented.

I have my doubts that it is physically possible for Trump to trip over his own dick.

Think about it. Then again, no don't.

Thanks, Maybenaut.

...So I think Trump might pardon Lakin on his way out the door. I don't think he would do it because of some ideological empathy, but I think he might do it as a fuck you to Obama. I don't disagree in the least. In fact, I'll take "over" in the over/under line. But how would this work? What if Trum...

I voted Flynn because he foams at the mouth and howls at the moon -- all good attributes in a national security advisor. Nevertheless he's too dangerous to be funny. I don't think Spicer will last too much longer either but at least he provides terrific fodder for SNL, Bill Maher and many other comi...

Meanwhile, LL Bean announced plans to reduce its workforce by 10%.

I'm not saying this move is directly related to the company's unfortunate link to the Trump name via Linda Bean. Jes sayin'.

Today's addition to the list of companies with Trump problems is Under Armour. The top executive at Under Armour is a fan of Donald Trump. His top athletes aren’t. Let the fireworks begin. Three of the clothing company’s biggest names spoke out against Chief Executive Officer Kevin Plank after he pu...

Can't he just move the river to our side? Shirley that can be easily accomplished by an executive order.

Reality Check wrote:Wasn't GEN Thomas McInerney one of the ones egging on Lakin too?

Yeah, and I don't get it. Why hasn't LTG McInerney been nominated for a cabinet position? He has all of the requisite qualifications.

Don't let Trump hear that you need a haircut. He'll take your house and car right out from under you and then offer to settle for 10 cents on the dollar.

Nobody loves haircuts more than the Shitgibbon.

But yikes! a Steve Bannon look? Yes, that's distressing.

...In The Price of Admission, Daniel Golden notes that officials at Frisch were "dismayed" when Jared was accepted to Harvard, since, as one former school official put it, "his GPA did not warrant it, his SAT scores did not warrant it." Other students in Jared's class, the official said, were far m...

Remember these gems from the campaign?

The information charged him with communications fraud, forgery and impersonation of officer -- all crimes under Utah state law.

This is one of the few threads these days that is fun to read.

I also like that Gorsuch is skeptical of judicial deference to administrative agencies-- we are going to start seeing some outrageous decisions once Trump gets his people on the FCC/ SEC/ NLRB, and Gorsuch will be better in administrative-review decisions than either Scalia or Garland. :yeah: A mos...
