A sight so amazing even the duck is impressed.

Ducks like piers. We are learning that this summer. One daily housekeeping chore is to wash the duck poop off the pier.

Can I get the duck if I say the secret word?

Google Appears To Blacklist Non-Mainstream News Sites, Calls It ‘Technical Issue’

could this be why Althouse wasnt showing up in searches?
considered a 'conservative' site?

they claim the issue is resolved, and it wasnt only conservative sites
the Daily Kos was affected. Is the glitch predominantlyweighted
against conservatives, sorta like Covid, where it mostly spreads at
gatherings like churches, get-back-to-work rallies, etc?

Michigan School Fires Popular Teacher For Saying ‘Trump Is Our President’

Nonapod म्हणाले...

By the way, earlier today I noticed that if you searched Google for "Althouse" or "Ann Althouse", this blog was no longer in the results. Ann Althouse's Wikipedia page was at the top along with a bunch of other somewhat related articles, but the blog itself was gone.

Fortunately, now it seems like it's back to normal with the blog appearing at or near the top of the results.

I suspect this may be an possible explanation. Google is calling it a technical issue that has since been resolved. Sort of funny how it's an issue that only seemed to go one way politically.

What an interesting "small" world the russian coup/Ukrainian hoax plotters inhabit.

We find out today, years after the russia collusion hoax was launched and long, long after the Ukrainian hoax/impeachment was launched, that the star of the Steele hoax dossier (compiled by FusionGPS and handed to Steele to "verify" (launder) the info), primary sub-source Igor Danchenko, was the student of and longtime pal and associate of one of the Ukrainian impeachment hoaxes star witness, Fiona Hill.

No wonder Schiff-ty Schiff spent years burying all information about Fiona Hill and Danchenko as well as hiding the the relationship between his (Schiff's) staff and the hoax whistleblower Eric Ciaramella.

On top of all that, Li'l Miss Fiona had previously worked for the far left radical billionaire Soros' Open Society Institute.

But wait, it gets even better.

Between 2016 and 2018 Danchenko traveled to Ukraine, Moscow, New York and London and even made a joint appearance with his good pal Fiona Hill at the Brookings Institute.

This is why I have bottle rockets always handy. To keep these kinds of creatures away from my dock. I don’t think I have ever had a duck on my dock though, those kind of semi domesticated fat and lazy creatures would be greasing the chin of some local predator or other pretty quick if they ever showed up. The ducks around here are far more wary.

BTW, keep a close eye on the Three Gorges Dam in China.

The Chief Design Engineer for this "10,000 Year Dam" "suddenly died"....after massive shifting of the dam has occurred across the entire span of the dam....and there have been near continuous floods from the panicked release of large amounts of reservoir water....all on top of the ChiCom's blowing up an upriver dam to try and relieve some pressure on the Three Gorges Dam....

.....and they are expecting 12 more inches of rain over the next couple of days...followed by the....(wait for it)....monsoon season.

We are looking at potentially 400 to 600 Million people in direct danger from this dam's imminent collapse.

I fully expect democrats to impeach Trump over the collapse of this dam sometime after Trump's reelection and Biden being placed in a nursing home.

@Drago:

I'm fully expecting the dam to fail, probably before our election. I'm wondering what China's reaction will be? A pull back, or maybe even more sabre rattling? What effect will this have on our election.

(Kind of gruesome how easy it is to overlook the potential death of hundreds of millions of people)

It's a very beautiful picture. It's so beautiful that my eye sends a message to my brain that the reds were a little touched up. If not by the photographer, then by the camera. Is my eye wrong?

I saw the concerns about the Three Gorges Dam, and I watched the news reports from Wuhan during December.

I just don't think you can trust ANY reports out of China.

Drago म्हणाले...

Gahrie: "I'm wondering what China's reaction will be? A pull back, or maybe even more sabre rattling? What effect will this have on our election."

In the case of a Three Gorges Dam failure and mass flooding, I have no doubt the dems will work with the ChiComs to accuse Trump of war crimes and the UN will back them up.

Guaranteed.

Drago म्हणाले...

And because Biden and obama fully weaponized the federal government against domestic republican/conservative political opponents, the dems can now count on the heartfelt support of all FakeCon nevertrumpers....along with Tim in Vermont.

Democrats Worry U.S Improving

“We are about to see the best economic data we’ve seen in the history of this country,” Obama economist Jason Furman warned a group of prominent Democrats in April, spiking fears among those on the call that a comeback economy could bolster President Donald Trump’s chances at re-election.

“This is my big worry,” one former Obama official told Politico, who said the “level of concern” was “high, high, high, high” among party leaders.

I guess the proper term is that is a surreal photograph.
That being said. I have a nuance pertaining to the word 'that' as a Pronoun. Is that a duck ?
That was Kamala Harris, that was not a Drag Queen. Neither of that are food. Improper.
Neither of them are food, but that duck may be.

There are a lot of really, incredibly, stinker movies free on Amazon Prime video. Incredibiity from the need to pay for making it with such an awful script.

Maybe it's the casting couch that drives it all.

False positive covid-19 results artificially lower the death rate, as well as making it seem more widespread, the latter weirdly being what seems to alarm the right.

Howard: "Thank Gaia for Global Warming."

I know it will upset you to hear this, but "Gaia" has nothing to do with typical communist failure in large project design and construction.

Given the astonishing deflections already visibly apparent across the entire dam span I suggest you and ARM and the rest of your pals get going on figuring out a way to blame Trump for the coming catastrophe.

Drago म्हणाले...

Inga: "Today’s sunrise another favorite, beautiful."

Speaking of "sunrises" and things coming to light, we now know that the democrat prosecutors in Missouri setup a corrupted/fake evidence process to railroad the republican war hero Governor Greitens.

All Althousians will recall how Inga went after Greitens as another example of republican corruption (while also calling into question his SEAL qualifications).....when, once again, it turned out to be an example of the democrats corrupting and weaponizing law enforcement and prosecutions against domestic political enemies.

P.S. Inga's attempt to desmantle the appropriation of a systematic approach to a family, house, life, and etc., is aimed at white people. Good diversion, attempt. Those who choose to meet white supremacy liberals and enjoy or endulge in Trumps breast feeding the liberal black supremacy, if not grateful, then wtf. Do something. Create businesses, hire some white people, hire some Mexican refugees for sakes and at the least. Stop re-directing the hate. White people are diecent enough to direct the hate.
Cowards ! Or neutrally put, left leaning freeloaders.
Why must white people brain storm all the 'whatever it is'.

'But seriously', you're fired !

Forget at the least thank that children are not food ?

Too far left. We are relaxing in the sun on beach chairs. Have an American master minded beverage at a lower price than any other nation.

Cotton ? Really ?

So, I'm convinced that the FBI will be dismantled after the next election. If not, then Trump is a fool.

I'm also convinced that the FBI is on a PR campaign, and trying to reign-in corrupt politicians. You know, they investigated Biden in 2008!!

Hey!! What about that Republican fellow in Ohio that was taking bribes!! The FBI was all over that like white-on-rice.

Wink! Wink!

Aah, it's a tease, like Durham and election reform. You go to November with the factset you have. No such good fortune will occur.

But if it does, I suppose we need some kind of contingency planning. Might rumoredly affect pharma supplies, maybe REEs, who knows. Guess we should look to any war scenarios, or civil unrest in China.

Naturally the coverage will rotate over how PDT may be blamed or harmed by the news.

Not to mention a recent fracas between AOC and some R who told her to her face, “You are out of your freaking mind,” and later, not to her face, muttered seemingly at random, "Fucking bitch."

To either or both of those remarks, AOC had the fall to literally I-never.

A woman Hispanic bartender from the Bronx, who stole her colleagues' tips, never heard or was the recipient of such language?

For real? Growing up in my day you could have heard that in Catholic school, Hebrew school, or the Boy Scouts. Let alone Boston College or a bar.

Either she's lying, an utter hypocrite - or she had a more sheltered upbringing than anyone here including the hostess.

The Rep's judgment was as accurate as his diction.

Until global warming, the weather was exactly the same every day. It was Camelot.

It's true! It's true! The crown has made it clear
The climate must be perfect all the year

A law was made a distant moon ago here:
July and August cannot be too hot
And there's a legal limit to the snow here
In Camelot
The winter is forbidden till December
And exits March the second on the dot
By order, summer lingers through September
In Camelot

Camelot! Camelot!
I know it sounds a bit bizarre
But in Camelot, Camelot
That's how conditions are

They won’t. Taking Epstein out in a federal prison to shut him up was pretty brazen, but whoever did it got away with it. I doubt that they can reproduce that assassination. But I expect that she is going to be looking over her shoulder for quite some time. Statutes of limitation have run out on a lot of their nefarious behavior, and the FBI seems to have gone out of their way to screw up the Epstein investigation, letting a lot of critical evidence disappear. It’s almost as high people in the government were helping in the coverup. (Nothing new with the FBI - we still don’t know what happened to the Weiner laptop they seized almost four years ago).
