"I wonder how many people got this joke."

Hard to say. Most probably thought it was a typo.

I think many Gen Z do not even know the amazing feeling of America electing the first black president either.

I don't smoke tobacco anymore either. But I think the original original Coca Cola recipe would go great with my original recipe of whacky tobacky.

Obama signed the Affordable Care Act.

So Trumpy just signed the Unaffordable Care Act.

Now we finally know what Trumpy's "concept of a plan" was.

To somehow make Healthcare unaffordable again!!

I just don't understand why these shows need to be political.

If you were a "Real American" with a deep understanding of Americans and American politics and American history you would understand completely that political satire existed in the American colonies even before independence, often used to criticize British rule and advocate for independence.

For example: Benjamin Franklin was a satirist and significant figure in early American political satire, using it in his writings, such as "Rules by Which a Great Empire May Be Reduced to a Small One". He is also credited with creating the first American political cartoon, "Join, or Die", in 1754.

And if you had even half a clue you'd know exactly why political satire is so important to Americans today.

Maybe read a book?

CBS/Paramount are one company.
Skydance Media and Paramount Global are merging.
The merger needs approval by trump and his admin.

Been wondering when the revenge and retribution Mad King would bring the hammer down on Steven Colbert.

Release the Colbert files!

No worrues. We have a whole year for the truth to leak out.

I don't drink soft drinks at all any more.

But I would be ok with and prefer the original original recipe.

When they go back to that I might even drink it again!

- the lengths Democrats went to trying to throw Trump in prison.

Because that's where hateful criminals belong?

How dare they!!

Re 13

Even Lewsers get lucky sometimes ... .

(That would make a much better theme song for maga maroons than the Village people song. But being the Lewsers that they are Tom Petty would never give them the rights to use it.)

Perhaps a few more McBurgers.

Several in fact.

Original recipe.

Just like Trumpy.

The autopen is not covered by the ESIGN Act of 2000.

I'm sorry. Remind me why this is an issue again?

New Rulz. You maga maroons made them up. You should freakin know them by now.

Rule#1
If the president does it then it's the law and so is by definition not illegal.
Rule #2
See rule #1 no other rules are necessary.

Or does this new rule only apply to Trumpy?

"NBC is such a complete joke of a news organization."

Unlike fixed news. Who pays good money to lie.

"I am not saying I know the answer"

Duh?

I am saying you don't have a freakin clue.

Trumpy should have thought about the STAGGERING interest costs when he increased the deficit by 3-4 TRILLION dollars.

The noaa tsunami warning program was already underfunded. I can't imagine Trumpy has done anything to improve the programs funding.

Re 42

PG&E offers a different rate for solar users.

I have a Net-Zero plan. I pay only for natural gas until true up time.

If the summer sun is consistent enough I pay zero for electricity for the year.

My first year I ended up paying a couple hundred dollars at true up.

But as I like to say, Global warming has been very very good for the north coast. I haven't paid for electricity in years. Only mostly transportation fees. In addition I get a bonus check every year for the amount of green energy I produce from The Redwood Coast Energy Authority. This year it was $600.

Jail them and find them.

You mean find them and jail them?

After due process I assume? Or is that just too much to ask of America these days?

understandable if you lived in a rural area or under Obamacare.

Blah blah blah ... so remove and replace it! How is that "concept of a plan" (that was going to be done in 2 weeks 8 years ago) coming along?

BTW- The ACA uses the very same insurance companies everyone else uses.

Like Anthem Blue Cross, Aetna, Blue Shield of California Life and Health Insurance Company, Kaiser Permanente, Cigna, etc.

The increased number of people with insurance has lead to higher demand for healthcare services, potentially resulting in longer wait times for appointments for EVERYONE, making it harder to find a doctor who is both in-network and accepting new patients even for those with in-network providers.

When doctors leave the area or retire it is difficult for everyone in rural areas to find a new doctor. I am not in the ACA and it has affected me too. When my doctor left for greener pastures it took nearly a year to get a new primary care physician. My wife is still looking for one for herself.

Re 18 (correction)

Being Woke is -------- nonsense concocted by maga republicans and leveraged against democrats and unsuspecting Americans BY maga maroons and BY our adversaries.

For the new Zelda movie an actual young woman was chosen to play Princess Zelda.

I could give a ----.

Much ado about nothing most likely ginned up by hostile forces (foreign or domestic) just to create more Chaos and Controversy and division in America by ginning up another fake controversy.

Looks like you bought into it hook line and sinker. As usual.

Going woke would kill its chances of success.

Due to the state of politics today (and lots of propaganda from hostile foreign nations being directed by powerful AI algorithms and perpetrated by idiots like you) America is effectively divided against itself.

While some will argue that embracing social justice issues can enhance brand loyalty and attract a wider customer base, others like you suggest it can lead to boycotts, polarization, and financial losses

It seems that anything that pissed off one side or the other now can affect the financial bottom line of many corporations if they cannot weather the backlash from the other side.

Being stupid and short sighted is good!

Calling a bunch of marines standing around a fed building an "occupation" is the word game.

And one arrest. At a cost of HUNDREDS of millions of taxpayer dollars.

There are lots of word games going on here.

FTA

Chief Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell described this action-packed deployment as Task Force 51 supporting "more than 170 missions in over 130 separate locations from nine federal agencies, including the Drug Enforcement Agency, the US Marshal Service, ICE and the Department of Homeland Security" in a briefing in early July.

Seems like It was deterrence. The violence pretty much stopped after troops were deployed. No repeat of spring/summer 2020. Much to the left's chagrin.

#11 | POSTED BY BELLRINGER

GFY lying traitor.

It was the cause of violence. Not a deterrence. Any deterrent to violence was made by the LAPD. And was confined to a 5-10 block area of a 500 square mile city.

Any violence being done was in direct response to the illegal activity by federal officers who were masked and armed and who refused to identify themselves or coordinate with local authorities. And the protests were literally caused by the troops presence. The LAPD literally had to protect the troops and the civilians from each other.

YOU can say whatever you want.

Unless it comes to the attention of and angers the Mad King.

"Per military theorists, it takes 20 troops per 1000 people for an occupation."

Assuming armed resistance. And we are so very lucky so far that Californians have not chosen that option.

Play your word games all you want. There are still armed Marines and national guard troops carrying deadly weapons still occupying land in LA. without permission from the governor of CA. Driving around in military vehicles in an attempt to intimidate and harass and control the civilian population.

Yeah. Uh huh. Of course now that depends on whether the current president is seeking revenge and retribution against your state.

And direct cash payments for essential items such as food, water, and medication in a disaster and $42,500 dollars in direct financial assistance for housing is really nothing when you think about it.
