Shorter TeaBagHag: "That's not funny!" Or "hey guys, this is super cereal!"

All memed out for the day...

Douche Bag Hag -
Now do your corrupt democrap party.

Kakistocracy said...

And the grift continues. Just now they are going to do it directly with tax payer dollars with a "strategic" crypto reserve that just happens to be buying every crypto currency David Sacks is invested in.

TeaBagHag said...

Ok Reachy, if the democraps were pulling this crypto scam, MAGAts’ wailing would be audible from space.

TeaBagHag said...

In fact, MAGAts cried their little eyes out and gnashed their teeth down to nubs when the president’s son CLAIMED he could grant access to JB. And that was without a shred of proof that Joe Biden was complicit in the scheme.

Rusty said...

TBH. You know about Pelosi, right?

TeaBagHag said...

Is Pelosi openly asking for bribes and hosting sinners celebrating that corruption?
Whata whata whata whata bout………..

bagoh20 said...

If the Democrats were doing this they would hide it, and the media would tell us there is no evidence. If you think this is terrible, at least he's open about it, so you can just vote for someone else, anyone else, even a lifelong corrupt candidate with obvious dementia, or a blithering idiot who would lie about their every move, and even who is in charge.
Oh, too late, you already did that.

bagoh20 said...

"Is Pelosi openly asking for bribes...?
They don't do anything openly, except lie about what they are doing privately. If you don't think Pelosi has asked for bribes, huge bribes, many bribes, then you might have a tiny blind spot.

TeaBagHag said...

I accept that obviously all members of congress shill for bribes, under the guise of campaign contributions.
That is wrong and should be corrected but I’m not holding out hope it happens soon.
The answer isn’t to shrug and double down on celebrating corruption in the executive branch.

This is the same thing he is doing with US Steel and selling Boeing Jets in the ME.

He is making people in the US rich. We appreciate that.

Unlike Democrats and GOPe Republicans who make themselves rich and sell us out.

But yes, whata whata whata whata bout _______, has been super successful for MAGAt mental health.

Democrats and DC corruptocrats are zero sum losers. They only understand taking and redistributing.

They just cannot comprehend actual capitalism and free market promotion.

One of the best parts of this administration is watching stupid people crash out.

The TDS can be seen from space today.

TeaBagHag said...

LOL!
TDS = anyone who addresses the fact the the new clothes are not only not impressive, the emperor is, in fact, naked.

T.B. Haggis is steeping onions. Line forms on the far-left

The problem with crypto is it’s not currency. It is not backed by the full faith and credit of a nation state. It is just a digital unit of account with nothing behind it other than the greater fool theory.

Let's not forget that we are talking about the President of the United States here. A grifter the like of which we have never seen before.

TeaBagHag said...

IMAN, the grown ups are talking.
You can’t contest facts, so keep on fantasizing about sucking on balls.

At the 90 IQ lvl this is true.

But anyone with any common sense realizes this is a distinction without a difference.

The Biden Regime using the autopen to fund government grants and stealing taxpayer dollars was not effectively different than a standard meme coin founder stealing hte liquidity.

You haven't posted any facts about anything.

You keep posting your delusions and NYT quotes.

At some point you will realize that when you are caught lying multiple times nobody believes a word you say.

"IMAN, the grown ups are talking."
Then you should probably leave the room. The childrens table is over there.

TeaBagHag said...

Here’s a lie for you A Shill ease, you are well balanced and intelligent. I admire your frequent blood thirsty rants about killing commies.
And yes, taking bribes in the form of crypto is exactly the same as trading in steel, jets or actual, tangible goods.

Iman said...

Haggis is hard to read. How can steeping onions cramp her style.

Iman said...

Perhaps Haggis can explain the nearly $100,000,000,000.00 that was stolen from the taxpayers by the Biden administration during the final few months of his reign of error.

Don’t hold your breath…

Kakistocracy said...

Some greater fool wrote: “But anyone with any common sense realizes this is a distinction without a difference.”

That is the charitable view. Another is that the memecoin is an ideal channel by which foreign governments I(or anyone else) can bribe the President of the United States to adopt any policy they care to pay for.

TeaBagHag said...

Perhaps IMAN will explain exactly why a breitbart, newsmax MAGAt fever dream is in any way reality? If this accusation was even remotely plausible, the lunatics in this administration would trumpet this from on high and maybe provide evidence?
You got nothing but hunches and axes to grind, shitbitd.

"It is not backed by the full faith and credit of a nation state. It is just a digital unit of account with nothing behind it other than the greater fool theory."

"Backed by the full faith and credit"? And how has that turned out? Let's see...

The Federal Reserve was created in 1913. This is what they say their purpose is:

"The Federal Reserve System was created by the Congress to provide the nation with a safer, more flexible, and more stable monetary and financial system."

At one point, a $20 federal reserve note could be freely exchanged for a gold $20 double eagle, one for one. Today, if you want one double eagle, you'll have to hand over 168 $20 federal reserve notes. Since the Fed's creation, the dollar has lost 97% of its value.

Think that's stability? Only if you're a moron. So much for your "greater fool theory"- just look in the mirror, sport. There's your "greater fool", right there.

What a maroon.

narciso said...

those aren't onions iman,

since 1971, the currency is backed by nothing, no it's effectively monopoly money, they just haven't changed the color scheme, as the dollar has lost 90% of its value

Jim at said...

Well, this thread went to shit right from the jump.
Thanks, Tuesday.

Chest Rockwell said...

if you think Bitcoin is only backed by the greater fool theory, you're the fool. But keep collecting dollars, which are at 36 trillion and counting. Some of us are knowledgeable about monetary value and policy. And some people are retarded, or afflicted with TDS.

Gospace said...

There are benefits- and drawbacks- to any monetary scheme. Including gold and silver.

The problem inherent in all of them is- supply. Silver and gold must be dug from the earth, which kind of limits the money supply. Now. During the gold rush in CA- in the gold rush region eggs could be a dollar each- because there was more gold then eggs. The rest of the nation? Didn't suffer from that local inflation.

When Spain was bringing vast amounts of silver from South America they were money rich compared to other nations, and suffered wild internal inflation because the money supply expanded so fast. Spain (and Portugal) didn't invest in building industry as northern Europe and Great Britain did, and it cost them in the end. A lot of their silver went to buying products from elsewhere because they weren't making them.

The targeted inflation rate (that is- stable currency) of the fed, established by Congress, is zero percent. That constitutes a stable dollar. The value of a dollar was extremely stable from founding until the creation of the fed, including through The Civil War. There were a few ups and downs and hiccups- like the Gold Rush, but currency was stable. The fed is run by bankers- Their targeted inflation rate- contrary to law- is 1-2%. Doesn't matter what the inflation rate is if it's above zero- it's eventually makes the basic unit of currency- in our case The Dollar- worthless. The nickel candy bar of my youth is now closer to $2.00. My wife, 2 years younger, doesn't remember the 5¢ candy bar, she remembers the 7¢ candy bar. Two years difference in age... The 5¢ candy bar price dated back to the 1930s according to a quick google search. Why did the candy bar stay there while everything else rose? Shipping costs declined as other costs went up- and they balanced out for that particular product. And in the 1960s- that balancing out ended and candy bar prices started rising. Most everything else already had an inflated price- and was going higher.

I'd say whoever was running the autopen these past few years is an even bigger grifter. But of course, so good no one has yet even seen for sure who he or she is.

Craig Mc said...

I see someone has escaped the Democratic Underground echo chamber.

Kakistocracy said...



@ Mason G: Yep, indicative of the intellectual rigor of the crypto crowd. I suggest you sell your house and put it all into call options on a 3x leveraged “TwentyOne” single stock ETF.

dbp said...

The way bribes normally work, is that you offer money in exchange for something and unlike a normal commercial transaction, it's illegitimate. With crypto, you don't know who purchased a coin, token or whatever. That's the whole point of crypto. Most of the purchasers are likely to be fans who want to show support and have an extremely abstract souvenir.

The predominant investment thesis for Bitcoin is that someone else will take it off your hands at a higher price. That's it.

Your problem is that you are a Biden supporter.

We know you don't actually care about bribery. That just makes everything you say false on it's face.

The other problem is that you don't really understand the core difference between crypto-currency and federal reserve notes.

The real difference between Crypto and fiat is that Crypto is actually ledger technology. You can trace every single transaction on a block chain all of the way back to the genesis block.

Blockchain is actually a really bad way to run any kind of bribery scheme for this reason. But then again Rich is stupid enough to think that Trump issued the 100 or so Trump meme coins.

TeaBagHag said...

Achilles, your problem is you try and explain horseshit as if it were pearls. You’re also a piss poor apologist for an obviously corrupt regime. It’s an impossible job but you volunteered.

Kakistocracy said...

Over 90% of Americans have a negative view of crypto and the crypto-industry. This is despite the fact that the industry has already spent billions of dollars in PR and influence operations. Trump is on the wrong side of public opinion on this issue. Not a matter of "left" or "right" at this point.

That’s the thing about grifting — it’s a team effort until there are consequences to be suffered. Then everyone is on their own, ignored by former compatriots who are putting as much distance between them and the resulting damage as possible.

Some of us are of the opinion that an elected public servant should be held to a higher moral and legal standard than your average guy on the street.

And just like you they don't know why they have that negative view.

I don't really have to defend Trump. There aren't any credible accusations of corruption.

There are just stupid people like you saying stupid things.

It's all about the 50 dollar ice cream in her dedicated Fisher and Paykel freezer. Perhaps if your outrage was more evenly distributed....

Hey Douche Bag Hag - Is everything you hate - illegal?

TeaBagHag said...

Hey Reachy, WTF are you blathering about? You’re about as articulate as your cult leader.

Rusty said...

TBH is angry.

Kakistocracy said...

Most people don’t really understand money fundamentals. I think this creates the susceptibility to falling for the Crypto myth.

mikee said...

I had a negative view of crypto back when Bitcoin dropped from 10k to below 1k, and had I not had that view I'd be much happier today.
