Prince, Tom Petty, Steve Winwood, Jeff Lynne and others perform "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" at the 2004 Hall of Fame Inductions.

Shane Ali takes out Fartfisher:

The message is weak from almost any politician if you look at it that way, as almost all are somewhat compromised by the system.

The point is that her policies were much better for America than the Trumper's; they weren't conservative at all, hardly moderate, mostly progressive and or left leaning.

They don't have to be perfect, they only have to be better. Until there is campaign finance reform and the oligarchs don't own the Politian and the Media; as long as money is speech and it talks... there will be no representation in Gov for the People who created it, only for the people who bribe the politicians.

"Looks like the people want to abolish the annoying time changes!" Musk posted on X last week, in response to a poll by X user James Stephenson that found nearly 82 percent of fewer than 38,000 X users would "abolish" the system of changing the clocks forward in the spring and backward in the fall."

It's not clear that the two have seriously considered ending the practice of changing the clocks, but Musk reiterated his intention to "end the semi-annual time changes" in a follow-up post on X.

The U.S. already tried to permanently change to daylight savings time in 1974"a briefly popular decision to manage fuel consumption that ended in disaster as reports rolled in of children being killed by cars as they waited to be picked up by school buses in the dark."

Dude is smarter than the guy that offered him a job.

There is no County Sheriff anywhere qualified for that job, unless from somewhere like LA or NY, maybe.

This guy may be great, but he's basically the County Sheriff in Tampa Bay.
Hillboro County is a million and a half people.

Whataboutismsnaut.

Calling out asserted hypocrisy isn't an argument, it's a logical fallacy.

That's so cool.

Here's an agenda most Dems and a lot of swing voters could agree upon:

"A path to citizenship for millions of immigrants"
"Appoint Supreme Court justices who will get money out of politics and expand voting rights"
"If necessary," a "constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United"
"The minimum wage should be a living wage"
"The right to affordable health care"
"Say no to unfair trade deals"
"Expand Social Security"
"Protect a woman's right to make her own health care decisions"
"Equal pay" (for women)
"Pass the biggest investment in new, good-paying jobs since World War II" and "invest in infrastructure"
"Make college tuition free for the middle class and debt-free for all."
"Wall Street, corporations, and the superrich are going to start paying their fair share of taxes."
"Pass commonsense [gun] reforms and keep guns out of the hands of criminals"
"Put ourselves in the shoes of young black and Latino men and women who face the effects of systemic racism"
"Reform our criminal justice system from end to end"
"Defend all our rights " civil rights, human rights and voting rights, women's rights and workers' rights, LGBT rights, and the rights of people with disabilities"

This is not a moderate agenda."

I miss General Flynn. And the Qanon/Trump Merchandizing Group who at one time operated the websites from a pig farm in the Philippines.

Until they moved to Arizona, I think it was. Good times.

Trump is selling more direct now, so I don't know how they are doing financially.

Way to keep the music thread non-political, Freaky F**K, as is customary here.

But hey, Gomer's gonna gloat.

He did have a great voice, though:

Um, Heffyetta, the reason those two things are not the same is that when applied to Trumpers, what he said is absolutely correct.

When it is applied to Blacks it is non-factual.

Which... and I know facts are pretty foreign to Trumpers, and not really necessary if you own enough media... but they are still facts.

An ars-hol on any kind of thread smells the same.

First freaking sentence should be.... form of gnosis.... I'm still looking to appoint a new Editor to my Cabinet.

Transgenderism is, according to some, a form gnosis:

"Gnosis has multiple meanings, including a Greek word, a medical term, and a religious concept:
Greek word

The Greek word gnosis is a noun that means "knowledge" or "awareness". It was used in Hellenistic religions and philosophies, and is often associated with personal knowledge.

Medical term

In medicine, gnosis is a noun that means "knowledge of spiritual matters" or "mystical knowledge". It can also be used as a combining form to mean "knowledge". For example, the word prognosis uses the combining form -gnosis.

Religious concept

In a religious context, gnosis is mystical or esoteric knowledge based on direct participation with the divine. Gnostics believed that salvation could be achieved through knowledge and not through faith.

Gnostic beliefs resemble dualism, which is the view that the universe is structured by two opposing forces, good and evil.

'
The point being that in gnosis, individual conscious reality is constructed from within, not from without. Or more within than without, at least in certain respects.

In religion, it is knowledge direct from God his own self, not faith in what can be determined from external physical evidence.

Transgenders, or anyone else, who finds reality based on what they feel inside, whatever that might be, rather than what they see outside could be said to be gnostics.

Much like Holy Rollers, who know because they know because they know... not because they have faith in what they can see and know outsides themselves, but because of a strong belief in what they feel inside.

(Am I going to get into trouble for saying that? 8*)

Hitler ran the Third Reich, Donnie runs the soon to be Forth Reich.

It's the last one, btw.

Ultra-conservative billionaires like Marc Andreessen and Elon Musk support Trump for a number of reasons"not all of them financial."

Racket News, lol.

Matt Tiabbi is the equivalent to Seymour Hersh in journalism and Johnny Boy Turley in legal journalism.... people who can only make money by writing hot takes that push against what most writers are reporting, no matter what that is.

It's a profitable, if sadly dubious niche.

Huh? A Trumper calling other people liars?

When their Cult Leader is a Guinness World Book level Lying Champ?

How strange is that.....

Projection is a common psychological occurrence... especially in those who have to things to hide.

Why you would come on a nice little Christmas thread to do some gay bashing being the question answered by your posts.

SO, of course Yoon is the Rwinger who barely won a in 2022, had no experience in politics, and has lost much of his popularity since... even the Leader if his own Party opposes this Declaration of Martial Law.

A term that Americans might want to get used to being used here.

- Doj and the Fbi wasn't weaponized by the left.

Trumpers just keep the lies coming... who prosecuted Hunter? Or the Dem Senator and several other Dems the last few years?

It wasn't Republicans... they were too busy standing outside the Courthouse at Trump's Trial trying to intimidate the DA and the Judge.

Trumpers are just like their Cult Leader, Big Time Liars. They just aren't as accomplished at it as he is.
