Looks like a blah day. But I'm looking forward to the "Big game" tommorrow. Indiana v. Ohio State. I hope the underdog, Indiana wins. I'm tired of the same ol teams winning everything. Good to see Oregon as No. 1 too.
They paid her $20 million a year to lie to everybody?? No wonder why they are going under.

Despite the salary cot she still reportedly makes $25 million per year, well above the point where she would understand the impact of inflation on a household budget.
If you compare the sexual hijinks of Matt Gaetz versus the sexual hijinks of Bobby Kennedy, it's like David vs. Goliath. I don't know anything about anybody, other than rumor and innuendo. But from what I've read, Kennedy is a notorious womanizer, and my understanding is that his wife killed herself over it after she found his diary and read about all his exploits. Clearly she had mental health issues and is responsible for her own actions. But that's a pretty awful sex scandal.
Matt Gaetz is alleged to have had sex with a 17-year-old, which may or may not be a crime, depending on what state you are in. And our corrupt and nefarious FBI has investigated him for a couple of years, and nobody has reprimanded him in the House, let alone charge him with anything.
Why are they investigating him? Well, the House asked them to. That's one of the slimy and corrupt things that bothers me about the FBI. They are thugs that do whatever the federal government tells them to do. There's no independence at FBI. There's no "we only investigate crimes, sir." They'll be glad to do "background checks" and dig up whatever opposition research you need to scuttle an appointment or ruin somebody's career. It doesn't surprise me that Trump is avoiding the FBI and going with private background checks. That's because he wants to avoid any leaks from the sewer.
Why was Gaetz attacked the hardest? Why was the attack so immediate and brutal? Because he and his merry crew of freedom fighters voted with the Democrats to upend the Speaker of the House. That's never happened in almost 250 years of American government. You can bet people in the government don't like that shit. So don't kid yourself about the noble guardians of the Senate. This was a slimy hit job. And you can tell by the kid gloves that Kennedy is getting over his sex life (so far).
Actually, I expect a lot of attacks on the Kennedy nomination. That's because he's the one Trump nominee who promises more regulation, not less. He's the one bringing more government oversight, not less. You think Big Pharma is happy with his nomination? Or Big Food? I'm sure they're spending a lot of money right now trying to scuttle it.
The attack on Gaetz was immediate, because the Senators saw him as a genuine threat to the status quo and their power. The attacks on Kennedy will be delayed. Checks will have to be cashed first. But, I suspect, we will see a lot of attacks on his character. I wonder if anybody in the media will think of him as the son of Bobby Kennedy, and talk about that? Too few.

F**k the Ducks!
How does Oregon allowed a bye week at this time of year? Cheatin' bastards.
Are we (Althouseians) getting our own Ray Epps?
Something to be aware of... if it turns out to be factual: https://granitegrok.com/national/2024/11/cdc-knew-vaccines-caused-autism
"Sebastian Gorka as Senior Director for Counter-Terr*rism."
Gorka's back in the Game? Trump's making heads spin lol. I can hear the simultaneous wailing and gnashing of teeth.
They're still manufacturing votes in California.
