Joe Biden brags about "teaching" the class his now Secretary of State paid him $800K for, from, BTW, funds from the same Chinese nationals who funded the Penn/Biden Foundation, where classified documents he illegally (He was never President) took from his time as VP were kept, and where those same Chinese nationals had their own keys to the offices.
It's called money laundering. I would love to see him present documentation that he actually showed up for work.
According to Mitt Romney, at yesterday's press conference, he's seen nothing that Biden has done that has "risen to the level of a high crime or misdemenour (sic)"
This from a man who voted to convict Trump twice on partisan, made-up "crimes", that were rushed through the house and passed on an almost completely partisan vote.
Never forget that Mittens was a Democrat till age 45, and voted for Paul Tsongas and Bill clinton in 92. Who he voted for in 1996 or 2000, is anyone's guess.
Notice that the White House didn't implore the press to scrutinize the accusations against Biden, to show that they were somehow obviously baseless, but rather to scrutinize those bringing the accusations. A whole different thing.
"You guys go out and shoot the messengers." - White House
There's no evidence of bribes for Joe "China owns me!" Biden. Except for all of the bank records, Hunter's $83,000 stipend from Burisma, their joint bank accounts, Joe's brag about firing Ukrainian prosecutor Slokin, Hunter's trips on AF2, Chinese "investments" in Hunter's hedgefunds, etc. Nothing to see here, move along peasants.
The Mushroom Media Conspiracy is doing its best to protect Joe COM! Biden from these bribery charges. No one believes them except progressive dupes.
So when Dorothy Malone did that extremely funny and sexy switcheroo in the Big Sleep, which someone referenced very tangentially in the Dylan Mulvaney thread here today, Malone was playing a rare book store owner. The credit identifies her as Rare Book Store Proprietress, and the person who referenced this extremely sexy scene in The Big Sleep called her a mousy clerk, and I was incorrect about that. She was no clerk, and Bogart had to wrestle the information he needed from Malone when a private eye was not going to impress someone whose clients buy rare books. He was not in her league.
So he does a great impersonation of a hyper, nerdy, distracted rare book buyer. He goes on about some book he's looking for, and how it's not the first edition, no no no no, it's the third, the third, the third edition, from 1860, the one with the erratum on page 116. And Dorothy Malone knows that there was no such rare edition of that book, which is when she first bothers to give Humphrey Bogart a look of some slight interest. Which leads to, etc., etc., a lot of fun.
There is a point to this comment. I referenced that scene today because of some passing side comment Jamie had made that caught my eye and brought all that to mind.
I sit down this evening for a brief dip into TV, via Sneaky Pete, one of the best acted and best written shows I have ever seen, but rather anxiety-producing, and there is Margo Martindale, playing clunky dowdy grandmother Audrey in this family in which everyone is partly crooked and Pete is the ultimate con man, and when Audrey needs to find out where a certain hard-to-locate bookstore owner is, she asks the person at the store if she has a rare Ben Hur edition, no not the first, the third edition from 1860, the one with the erratum on page 116.
"Where did you get all that?" her surprised granddaughter asks her after they've left.
Audrey looks at the young girl with one of those little you-had-to-be-there looks, and says, "From a movie."
Of course, it was the very scene Bogart had played, and which ended up in Dorothy Malone's marvelous transformation, and the fact that I had cited it in a comment here, and then sat down and happened to be watching season 2, episode 9 of Sneaky Pete, and those great writers did that wonderful little throwaway reference to the very same scene -- well it seemed very unusual even for a strange degree of coincidence.
The VIX volatility index reached its lowest point in over 3 1/2 years today. When it is low, like this, VIX is a measure of confidence that options-based insurance against a big slide in stocks can be priced at very modest premiums -- because demand for "insurance" against a slide in stock prices is very low and no one is pushing up those options premiums, they are sagging with minimal demand. Traders are happy as clams; complacent, even, you might say. VIX 12.87 at the closing bell and slipping to 12.79 in those 10 minutes after the close.
Last time the VIX was here, around July 27, the SPX made its rally high for this move up from last October. The VIX has just matched and slightly exceeded its low point but the stock indexes have not reached their rally highs from July this time around. FYI, FWIW, YMMV, LGBTQ.
Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy "Today’s indictment of Hunter Biden is a smokescreen. Don’t fall for it. This is a fig leaf designed to deflect attention away from the real problem: the Biden family is selling out U.S. foreign policy for their own family’s private financial gain. That’s really what’s wrong, and we must hold politicians in both major political parties when they use our foreign policy to enrich their family members.
The impeachment inquiry initiated by the House against President Biden is a step in the right direction, but the public shouldn’t fall for the trick of diverting attention away from the true problem. It’s also no accident that today’s indictment comes at a moment when President Biden’s own popularity within the Democratic Party is cratering. I predict this is the first step for the Democrat Party managerial class to pressure Joe Biden out of the race. Biden will become a sacrificial pawn in service to the deep state that wants to keep power at all costs."

Total sickness, tim. Biden is the elected president. Trump, aka TFG, was found guilty, several times, of money laundering for the Russians and the Mafia back when he owned and operated his casinos, but let's not go there. As for classwork, there is the question as to whether Trump really attended classes at Wharton, a school within UPenn. Only 6 former classmates responded (out of 269 contacted) that they even remember Trump. Trump told the world that he finished "first in his class" at Wharton but he did not - no such a record exists.
Never forget that Mittens was a Democrat till age 45, and voted for Paul Tsongas and Bill Clinton in 92. Who he voted for in 1996 or 2000, is anyone's guess.
That is a lie. According to Buzzfeed, when Mitt registered to vote in Massachusetts in 1976. he did not declare a party of choice which made him an "unenrolled" voter. But under state law, when Romney legally voted for Democrat Paul Tsongas in the 1992 Primary, that single vote formally enrolled him in the Democratic Party. But when Teddy Kennedy sought re-election in 1994, Romney challenged him as a Republican.
I thought that there was a more charitable reading of Biden's remarks with his enumeration of various economic deplorables. I could have punctuated a transcript to fix it, but his lack of proper emphasis at the proper points to reflect that, made it sound like he was reading a teleprompter while coming out of a deep sleep.

Type your email... Subscribe So much of what we’ve seen that we’ve all found so disgusting has been at least tried to be kept under wraps to some degree or another.
But this? This is telling.
How bad has it gotten? Worse than you think.
It’s so bad, the Biden White House has no qualms or hesitation sending a letter to news outlets instructing them on how to respond to the opening of an impeachment investigation against the president.
A normal person would be hesitant to write such a letter for fear it might cause a re-doubling of the efforts to investigate the allegations themselves, but those efforts can’t be doubled because if you multiply anything by zero you get zero. Only if you are fully confident that the media is on your team, on your side, can you draft such a letter without any concern for blowback or embarrassment if it went public.
CNN (of all places) reports, “The White House plans to send a letter to top US news executives on Wednesday, urging them to intensify their scrutiny of House Republicans after Speaker Kevin McCarthy launched an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, despite having found no evidence of a crime.”
Not surprisingly, the CNN story (written by their “media reporter”) expresses no opinion about how this administration could feel comfortable enough with media executives to write a letter declaring, “It’s time for the media to ramp up its scrutiny of House Republicans for opening an impeachment inquiry based on lies.”
The letter continues, giving orders to media to not report on any investigation objectively. “Covering impeachment as a process story – Republicans say X, but the White House says Y – is a disservice to the American public who relies on the independent press to hold those in power accountable,” it reads.
See, this is the story for most people. That’s the big thing and that’s about it for them.
For me, though, it’s more than that. It’s a sign of just how little the White House thinks of people like you or me.
We simply don’t count, so who cares if they anger us? Who cares if it seems like the White House is now trying to coordinate news like they tried to coordinate exposure to the news by pressuring social media companies to block or downplay certain stories?"
Hunter Biden should just declare he’s running for the Republican nomination, which as I understand it requires that all charges against him be immediately dropped.
Mutaman: "Aaron Rodgers, another young, athletic man with previously healthy achilles tendons, goes down shortly after taking Ivermectin. How long will the mainstream media remain silent?"
Normally I would read something like this from someone else and think sarcasm, but since it tracks with much of what he normally spews I need to ask Mutaman: "really?"
Joe Smith said... Love Chandler...just got done reading 'Lady in the Lake' and 'The High Window' for about the tenth time
I Love Chandler (his writing, that is!) too.. He makes SoCal seem so wicked, that i WANT to be there. 1930-40's SoCal seems to be EVERYTHING that a person would want, in a Gomorrah. Modern SoCal should pay attention, and Quit wasting it's time with the Stupid things it's wasting it's time on. Let's bring back murdering beautiful women, and hiding them in lakes, and taking their identities!
"New York Times and Washington Post BOTH run op-eds branding Biden, 80, too old for office with NYT raising specter of him dying before retiring like Ruth Bader Ginsburg"
Both the NYT and WaPoo hate the elderly. There's no reason a doddering old racist like Joe Biden can't run and serve two terms as President. He has Dr. Jill to keep him laser focused on his job. Just because he mumbles his way through his speeches and spends 40% of his time is no reason he can't have a second term!
Joe "China owns me!" Biden's latest racist statement:
"...particularly for African Americans and Hispanic workers and veterans — you know, the workers without high school diplomas"
Mutaman: '"Aaron Rodgers, another young, athletic man with previously healthy achilles tendons, goes down shortly after taking Ivermectin. How long will the mainstream media remain silent?"' 9/14/23, 9:19 PM
Mutaman simply reposted, without a link, what some other lefty created by copying the Babylon Bee joke (Rodgers tendon tear was due to lack of Covid fake-vaccination) and reversing the logic.
But the Babylon Bee joke actually IS funny because of how the entire left lied for years in actually blaming Covid for everything!!
So yes, Mutaman and the lefties took time out from insulting the Babylon Bee and its readers to pretend they came up with the joke....that doesn't work for them at all!
LOL
But having Alhouse readers know where the failed lefty knockoff came from would be too embarrassing for the "Can't Meme"-lefties...so no attribution or link because everyone would see it!
How perfectly Mutaman-ian!
But only perfectly...because it fails on every level.
Modern SoCal should pay attention, and Quit wasting its time with the Stupid things it's wasting its time on. Let's bring back murdering beautiful women, and hiding them in lakes, and taking their identities!
@gilbar, you really think they ever stopped doing that? I think they just stopped writing books about it.
@Aggie -- I could almost believe it. Weird feeling to have two of my time threads jump. While watching TV.... : )
@Joe Smith -- Chandler's books made several good movies, as you know, of which The Big Sleep is my favorite. IIRC, the scriptwriters, which included Faulkner (a very ineffectual scriptwriter overall, apparently) were sufficiently puzzled by the plot twists that they finally asked Chandler to explain some of the threads. Which I believe brought a "Damnded if I know" reply.
" I understand it requires that all charges against him be immediately dropped."
Better to be a Democratic pol, so that the charges are never brought. There is a large stack of crimes, most notably FARA violations right up front that don't require any further proof than is in the public domain, that are not being prosecuted, in fact, Weiss attempted to include FARA violations in the immunity he tried to hide in the plea deal he concocted for Hunter.
There is also Huma Abadin's deposition under oath to the fact that Hillary destroyed Federal records of meetings that she held as Secretary of State with foreigners who contributed hundreds of millions of dollars to her foundation, the primary reason for the existence of which was to allow her to hand out cushy, small time investment, jobs to grease palms.
Notice that the headline makes it look like it's about "burn bags" but the story makes it clear that she destroyed records of meetings as Secretary of State. Per the law, if convicted of what her trusted assistant swore she did under oath, she is disqualified from holding "any office" in the United States government.
It's probably why Putin gave her "foundation" hundred of millions of dollars, so that she could grease the needed palms to get his Uranium One deal done. But sure. Let's pretend that Republicans always get the charges dropped, and Democrats are hunted relentlessly. Why not?
'Let's bring back murdering beautiful women, and hiding them in lakes, and taking their identities!'
Spoiler tag needed!
Just kidding. I figured that part out in lightning speed...
Imho Hammett pales in comparison. Chandler does sleaze and atmosphere very well.

Not surprisingly, the CNN story (written by their “media reporter”) expresses no opinion about how this administration could feel comfortable enough with media executives to write a letter declaring, “It’s time for the media to ramp up its scrutiny of House Republicans for opening an impeachment inquiry based on lies.”
The letter continues, giving orders to media to not report on any investigation objectively. “Covering impeachment as a process story – Republicans say X, but the White House says Y – is a disservice to the American public who relies on the independent press to hold those in power accountable,” it reads.
See, this is the story for most people. That’s the big thing and that’s about it for them.
For me, though, it’s more than that. It’s a sign of just how little the White House thinks of people like you or me.
We simply don’t count, so who cares if they anger us? Who cares if it seems like the White House is now trying to coordinate news like they tried to coordinate exposure to the news by pressuring social media companies to block or downplay certain stories?"

Hunter Biden should just declare he’s running for the Republican nomination, which as I understand it requires that all charges against him be immediately dropped.
@ Mutaman. Amusing you did not include Novak Djokovic (GOAT) in your mocking of athletes who refused to follow CDC/ Commie vax mandates.
Mutaman: "Aaron Rodgers, another young, athletic man with previously healthy achilles tendons, goes down shortly after taking Ivermectin. How long will the mainstream media remain silent?"
Normally I would read something like this from someone else and think sarcasm, but since it tracks with much of what he normally spews I need to ask Mutaman: "really?"

Love Chandler...just got done reading 'Lady in the Lake' and 'The High Window' for about the tenth time
I Love Chandler (his writing, that is!) too.. He makes SoCal seem so wicked, that i WANT to be there.
1930-40's SoCal seems to be EVERYTHING that a person would want, in a Gomorrah.
Modern SoCal should pay attention, and Quit wasting it's time with the Stupid things it's wasting it's time on. Let's bring back murdering beautiful women, and hiding them in lakes, and taking their identities!
"New York Times and Washington Post BOTH run op-eds branding Biden, 80, too old for office with NYT raising specter of him dying before retiring like Ruth Bader Ginsburg"

Both the NYT and WaPoo hate the elderly. There's no reason a doddering old racist like Joe Biden can't run and serve two terms as President. He has Dr. Jill to keep him laser focused on his job. Just because he mumbles his way through his speeches and spends 40% of his time is no reason he can't have a second term!
Joe "China owns me!" Biden's latest racist statement:
"...particularly for African Americans and Hispanic workers and veterans — you know, the workers without high school diplomas"

Mutaman simply reposted, without a link, what some other lefty created by copying the Babylon Bee joke (Rodgers tendon tear was due to lack of Covid fake-vaccination) and reversing the logic.
But the Babylon Bee joke actually IS funny because of how the entire left lied for years in actually blaming Covid for everything!!
So yes, Mutaman and the lefties took time out from insulting the Babylon Bee and its readers to pretend they came up with the joke....that doesn't work for them at all!
LOL
But having Alhouse readers know where the failed lefty knockoff came from would be too embarrassing for the "Can't Meme"-lefties...so no attribution or link because everyone would see it!
How perfectly Mutaman-ian!
But only perfectly...because it fails on every level.
But only on every level.
Both the NYT and WaPoo hate the elderly.
@Mike of Snoqualmie, the entire Democrat Party hates the elderly.

@gilbar, you really think they ever stopped doing that? I think they just stopped writing books about it.
@Aggie -- I could almost believe it. Weird feeling to have two of my time threads jump. While watching TV.... : )
@Joe Smith -- Chandler's books made several good movies, as you know, of which The Big Sleep is my favorite. IIRC, the scriptwriters, which included Faulkner (a very ineffectual scriptwriter overall, apparently) were sufficiently puzzled by the plot twists that they finally asked Chandler to explain some of the threads. Which I believe brought a "Damnded if I know" reply.
RIP Fernando Botero.
Now where will I go to replenish my wank bank?

Amuse yourselves: The Conversation, Part II
" I understand it requires that all charges against him be immediately dropped."
Better to be a Democratic pol, so that the charges are never brought. There is a large stack of crimes, most notably FARA violations right up front that don't require any further proof than is in the public domain, that are not being prosecuted, in fact, Weiss attempted to include FARA violations in the immunity he tried to hide in the plea deal he concocted for Hunter.
There is also Huma Abadin's deposition under oath to the fact that Hillary destroyed Federal records of meetings that she held as Secretary of State with foreigners who contributed hundreds of millions of dollars to her foundation, the primary reason for the existence of which was to allow her to hand out cushy, small time investment, jobs to grease palms.
https://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Politics/2016/0705/Did-Hillary-Clinton-violate-protocol-by-using-burn-bags
Notice that the headline makes it look like it's about "burn bags" but the story makes it clear that she destroyed records of meetings as Secretary of State. Per the law, if convicted of what her trusted assistant swore she did under oath, she is disqualified from holding "any office" in the United States government.
It's probably why Putin gave her "foundation" hundred of millions of dollars, so that she could grease the needed palms to get his Uranium One deal done. But sure. Let's pretend that Republicans always get the charges dropped, and Democrats are hunted relentlessly. Why not?
Just watched AOC get shouted down while she was giving a speech in NYC on providing work permits for illegals. Nadler gets his too. How delicious.
'Let's bring back murdering beautiful women, and hiding them in lakes, and taking their identities!'
Spoiler tag needed!
Just kidding. I figured that part out in lightning speed...
Imho Hammett pales in comparison. Chandler does sleaze and atmosphere very well.
“From 30 feet away she looked like a lot of class. From 10 feet away she looked like something made up to be seen from 30 feet away.” -- The High Window
“I needed a drink, I needed a lot of life insurance, I needed a vacation, I needed a home in the country. What I had was a coat, a hat and a gun. I put them on and went out of the room.” -- Farewell, My Lovely
“It seemed like a nice neighborhood to have bad habits in.” -- The Big Sleep
“It was a blonde. A blonde to make a bishop kick a hole in a stained-glass window.” -- Farewell, My Lovely
“The girl gave him a look which ought to have stuck at least four inches out of his back.” -- The Long Goodbye
Seriously, very few American writers of any era or genre are as quotable as Chandler...
"Aaron Rodgers [age: 40], another young, athletic man..."
"op-eds branding Biden, 80, too old for office..."
So I guess 60 is "middle age", now?
