Lem the artificially intelligent said...: Tweet video of an internet fight: it's a dog eat dog world

Speaking of the Nathan's hot dog eating contest...

"The Mustard Belt remains around the waist of Joey Chestnut."

"Chestnut prevailed in the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest for the 16th time after eating 62 dogs. While he fell well short of his record-setting tally of 76, he finished comfortably ahead of Geoffrey Esper."

Must've been the record heat that kept him from breaking his own record.; 7/5/23, 5:36 PM

Shaking my head. Why does my sky not look like that? I mean, besides the fact that it happens at 5ish and I wake up at 7?; 7/5/23, 5:43 PM

Yancey Ward said...: The below links describe what true government corruption is. This is your DoJ protecting the Joe Biden's tax evading, coke snorting son- and getting away with it. These reviews of the IRS whistleblower's testimony describe what should be an impeachable offense for, at the very least, Merrick Garland and his first line assistants, if not the President himself. If it were Eric Trump or Donald Trump Jr. rather than Hunter Biden, it would be treated by the mainstream media like Watergate to the nth power.

The haze is nothing like the heavy smoke we had around 2019. Fortunately.; 7/5/23, 7:01 PM

https://consortiumnews.com/2023/07/05/chris-hedges-they-lied-about-afghanistan-now-theyre-lying-about-ukraine/

As for the Zapro Nuke Plant threats by Zelensky, they, in my opinion, were aimed at NATO. "I'm crazy, you know I'm crazy! I'm gonna false flag ZNPP! Right here in Europe!"

Then Europe calls to "lean on him," which really means: "What do we have to give you to call it off?" And suddenly a "hard no" on NATO membership is softened and a joint committee to study the issue is created, presto!; 7/5/23, 8:03 PM

gadfly said...: So, did you know that TFG interfered with the investigation into the Hunter Biden laptop after his lawyer, Rudy Guliani, was provided with a copy of the hard drive by the blind repairman? And Isaacs failed to airgap the computer permitting access from the internet to add files.

Whistleblower X told us in one part of the interview that prosecutors had found something in the email record that led them to worry they could not prosecute this case at all, and then in another part of the interview, he told us that the supervisor for the first year or so of this investigation believed they would have problems prosecuting it down the road because of Trump’s constant badgering for precisely this investigation.

Maybe, just maybe, the reason no US Attorney’s Office wanted to take this to trial is because this investigation was plagued by inappropriate tampering from the other President from the start?; 7/6/23, 12:11 AM

@amuse
There were SEVERAL people who saw Hunter Biden working in the White House Library with his laptop. When the fire department reported the cocaine was found in the Library they put 2+2 together. Once the White House realized this the location of the cocaine was updated to a West Wing 'work area' which could be ANYWHERE in the West Wing. Now the White House is claiming the cocaine was found in an area where guests leave their cell phones. I'm somewhat convinced they're lying...

Weird how WH leaks on where the cocaine was found keep on changing. From the library, to a "work area" to now "near" where "guests leave their cell phones." https://washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/07/05/cocaine-white-house-investigation/

Before the concert the American Flag was brought out and we all thanked all the veterans in the audience and then we all pledged allegiance to the flag. When was the last time that happened at a public venue?
'King88' was the band. A lot of piano rock and roll. Fun time.; 7/6/23, 11:16 AM
MadTownGuy said...: Pa. Gov. Shapiro says he will scrap school vouchers in end-run on Senate Republicans

"This story has been updated to reflect a statement from Gov. Josh Shapiro that confirmed earlier reporting by Spotlight PA.

HARRISBURG — Gov. Josh Shapiro says he plans to scrap his push for private school vouchers in Pennsylvania’s state budget in order to close a deal with the commonwealth’s divided legislature five days after the deadline.

The Democrat issued a statement Wednesday acknowledging that talks had deadlocked over a $100 million voucher program, which he had supported and which state Senate Republicans passed as part of their budget proposal last week. Pennsylvania House Democratic leaders oppose vouchers and had refused to act on the Senate’s bill.

Shapiro’s solution, he said, was to promise state House Democrats that if they pass the Senate’s budget, he will then line-item veto the vouchers from the $45.5 billion spending plan.

“Our Commonwealth should not be plunged into a painful, protracted budget impasse while our communities wait for the help and resources this commonsense budget will deliver,” Shapiro said in a statement."

This makes me wonder if he had this in mind all along.

"Spotlight PA had previously reported the existence of Shapiro’s plan to cut vouchers out of the budget deal.

In his statement, Shapiro said that over the weekend, state House Democrats requested a legal memo from his administration that confirmed that any voucher program passed as part of the budget could not be implemented without separate enabling legislation — legislation that House Democrats might be able to block.

“Knowing that the two chambers will not reach consensus at this time to enact [the voucher program], and unwilling to hold up our entire budget process over this issue, I will line-item veto the full $100 million appropriation and it will not be part of this budget bill,” Shapiro said."; 7/6/23, 2:06 PM

Dr Weevil said...: Since 'tim in vermont' continues to lie (8:03pm) about who is actually thinking of blowing up the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, here's a Russian propagandist on Russian TV breaking the news to his fellow propagandists that the Ukrainians could not in fact blow it up even if they wanted to: link. Nor could they have blown up the Nova Kakhovka dam, as 'tim' continues to pretend: like the nuclear power plant it was far too solidly constructed to be blown up by anything except huge quantities of explosives planted by those who control it and the area around it: the Russians.

As for cluster munitions (6:11am), 'tim in vermont' has never objected to the Russians using them on civilian as well as military targets, including types far nastier than any the US will provide to Ukraine. As Trent Telenko puts it, talking about Human Rights Watch: their "utter silence on Russian thermite & magnesium incendiary cluster munitions that have burned down hundreds of Ukraine's towns and villages marks them as the worst sort of posturing moral hypocrites" (link).

At least 'tim' is smart enough not to pretend that Ukraine (or the US) signed the 2008 convention banning cluster munitions, as 'gilbar' did on the July 4th Sunrise thread. I suspect both have read my refutation there, proving that neither 'gilbar' nor his source (Zero Hedge!) could be bothered to do two minutes of Googling to check the facts. Odd that neither 'gilbar' nor 'tim' has acknowledged that error.; 7/6/23, 10:12 PM
