Greed drips off these critters like flop sweat off Ted Striker.

You're right to not "get it," especially if you think "Beverly Hillbillies" is real-life TV.
(Sheesh, these MAGAts ... )
Ever considered switching channels, not watching the show?
Decisions, decisions, life is suuuuuuuch hard werk.
*Sigh*

Morning, Coriolanus ... It's really an international story and the Brits seem to have overcome any worries, if such existed, about breaching a "royal wall" of de facto immunity.

Here, nope, Trump's Epstein Coverup is now a defining feature of the regime and its Republican aiders and abetters.

Meanwhile, in the US not a single one of Epstein pal Trump's lickspittle MAGAts, I.e. Republicans, showed up for Epstein pal Les Werner's deposition about his association with Trump pal Epstein.

Its really time to close this website, there's just so much stupidity here.

Have you considered taking a long walk off a short pier?
No, it's okay, you'll not be missed by a soul.

Imagine this was your name these sad supplicants were uttering. And then imagine you lived in a world so stripped of meaning, so inundated by insecurities, so utterly lacking an unskewed focus that this seems like a dandy idea; indeed, just about the least they could do.

Once you buy into the "alternative facts" line of buffoonish boolsheetery the idea of actual evidence becomes superfluous since the charges themselves are personal/political and require only a person's opposition status to put them into effect.

In The Gulag Archipelago, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn recalled an incident when a Soviet officer inquired of a Stalinist prison camp inmate's offense.

The chief of the convoy guard was curious: "What did you get it for?"

"For nothing at all."

"You're lying. The sentence for nothing at all is ten years."

Idiots! Guns don't kill people.

"While keeping Trump focused on the Iranian missile and nuclear threat " which, though reduced, is still very real and will have to be dealt with diplomatically or militarily " Bibi is fundamentally threatening broader U.S. interests in the Middle East, not to mention the security of Jews all over the world. In what way?" Thomas Friedman asks. "I cannot put it any more succinctly than Ehud Olmert, the former Israeli prime minister, did."

"A violent and criminal effort is underway to ethnically cleanse territories in the West Bank," he wrote in an essay in Haaretz this month. "Gangs of armed settlers persecute, harm, wound and even kill Palestinians living there. The rampages include burning olive groves, houses and cars; breaking into homes; and physically assaulting people." He continued: "The rioters, the Jewish terrorists, storm Palestinians with hate and violence with one objective: to force them to flee from their homes. All this is done in the hopes that the land will then be prepared for Jewish settlement, en route to realizing the dream of annexing all the territories."

You got yerself one a them, whatchamacallem, googler, right?
Use it.

"Last fall, the Trump administration produced a classified legal opinion that justified the lethal strikes against a secret list of at least two dozen cartels and suspected drug traffickers classifying them as enemy combatants, CNN has reported."

Sorry, taking the word of these murderous clowns just isn't possible.

A spoon cant feed you either.

Thanks for your service, Pfc SNAFU.

MAGAt drugstore cowboys, afraid of a dogie's shadow.

My guess is he will be remembered as a transitional figure with the balance on the positive side. Not bad at all, considering some bumps along the way (like all of us). RIP.

CORIOLANUS ... Your Hoffa story reminds me of two episodes from filmdom.

The first is when Tony Soprano orders Tony B and Christopher to hoik on over to Uncle Pat Blundetto's farm in Kinderhook, New York, and remove three bodies. (The Sopranos "Cold Cuts" episode.)

The second occurs in Good Fellas as Henry, Jimmy and Tommy excavate the rotted remains of another gangster. Henry pukes while the others remain unperturbed, Tommy shouting: "Hey, Henry, Henry, hurry up, will you? My mother's gonna make some fried peppers and sausage for us!"
Jimmy Conway: Oh, hey, Henry, Henry! Here's an arm!
Henry Hill: Very funny, guys.
Jimmy Conway: Here's a leg!
Tommy DeVito: Here's a wing!

All that's missing is: "Here's Hoffa!"

What an actor's actor. I'd forgotten how much stage work he did prior to getting into films; it shows, on a good way. And he made it look so simple. A true craftsman in a lonely art. And magnificently done. RIP.

From the NYT obit:

From early on, Mr. Duvall enjoyed the life of a supporting actor. "Somebody once said that the best life in the world is the life of a second leading man," Mr. Duvall told The Times. "You travel, you get a per diem, and you've probably got a better part anyway. And you don't have the weight of the entire movie on your shoulders."

Trump sure is determined to see that those Epstein Files he whipped his mob up about stay largely buried.
If it yawls like a sick old dawg, it's Old Yeller again.
Never heard anything, don't know nuthin, the most ignorant man in the world.
But once, they were very good friends.
" ... and may every day be another wonderful secret."
Indeed

Borrowing the words of Fielding Mellish, spoken in a different context, Trump's Epstein Coverup really is "a travesty. It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of a travesty of two mockeries of a sham."

"Picklebrawl."
Kudos!

The folks living there just a few years before fell victim to "American Exceptionalism."

Good on Beshear.

Until he gets straight on that $50K cash in a bag, Tom Homan's words are just the babbling of another goon who emerged from the Border Patrol cesspit.
