It’s amazing that John Fogerty still does all these songs in the original key, and doesn’t shy away from the high notes.

Never got the hang of Princess Bride, I mostly watched it just because it seems so heavily referenced.
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads and father-figures out there.

This morning, the Nashville @Tennessean — the largest newspaper in the state — published a full-page ad from a far-right client warning “Islam is going to detonate a nuclear device in Nashville, Tennessee.” It’s accompanied by photos of Donald Trump and Pope Francis. pic.twitter.com/9vvUbteSIh

This will be the ultimate downfall of Trump: not his inherent evil but the blundering ham-handedness of the operation.
Any organization that knew how to delegate jobs to people actually capable of doing them would not have let a dilettante’s error like this slip by.

re: #43 Teddy’s Person
If you do decide to watch Downton Abbey it will be from either a DVD or video download. One of the reasons why I am watching it now is that this will be one of the last times it will be shown on TV. They might decide to show it again sometime in the future but for right now PBS is putting the series in the vault.

And of course now the latest is that she was the murdered man’s girlfriend.

They also named her as A suspect, not sure if they are looking for others. Local media is just getting their claws into things, we’ll see I guess.

I think they think they will get the GOP back. They won’t; it belongs to the fascists now. Today you have 3 choices in American politics: Democrat, fascist, or irrelevant.
It would only take a dozen Republican Senators/Representatives breaking with Trump to upset the whole crime gang. They’re sticking with him and they own every decision.

I’d guess that kids in cages is not something they’re cool with, but looting health care and social programs to give tax cuts to the rich is A-OK. With the possible exception of Jennifer Rubin, they’re going to be crapping on President Biden right out of the box.
re: #65 GlutenFreeJesus

Trump is the inevitable outcome of GOP politics. When you have nothing to offer voters except culture wars because the only legislation you want to pass is tax cuts for rich people, you have to keep getting more extreme in your rhetoric to fire up the base until you finally sound like Adolf Hitler.

Except for foreign policy. They really hate Trump’s alliance with Putin. And neocons like Bolton are not fond of our drawing back from foreign policy commitments. Many are on board with his domestic policy — though some probably object strongly toward his immigration stance.

Or the Teddy Roosevelt version. National Parks, Panama Canal, trust-busting, FDA, and balanced the budget.
Or even the Eisenhower version. Interstate highways, public school expansion, supported unions, took the space program away from the military, followed through on the Marshall Plan, Earl Warren, 1957 Civil Rights Act (majority leader LBJ blocked it), sent the 101st Airborne to enforce civil rights decisions in states that refused to do it themselves, protected Social Security, showed the world how to Democracy properly… and kept taxes high enough to balance the budget.

Trade is another.
For “I’m not involved” Trump was pretty quick to nominate someone for the SDNY attorney position. So we get a better idea who was lying more yesterday.
The spin regarding Trump I’m seeing in other circles is about how he is charismatic without touching much on the underlying hate and racism that is his true calling card. (And I suspect the lukewarm defenders don’t want to touch that.)
The police viewing “Black Lives Matter” as an insult or challenge that must be painted over repeatedly are showing further that they just don’t get it. And convincing a lot of others that reform of police departments and union contracts is going to have to go all the way to the foundations and require complete rebuilding.
And the apologetics around the pathetic Tulsa fail rally are simply that; pathetic. The picture of Trump coming off AF1 with the tie loose and that expression is a campaign ad unto itself.
A reminder that Bolton is every bit the colossal fucking monstrously idiotic asshole you know and loathe.
Bolton: 150 dead or a war, it is “all conjectural” so why not do it? He is not even aware how events since then make his logic even more absurd. Cherry on top: stopping a war whose consequenes no one could predict was “the most irrational thing he ever witnessed a president do”

I see no future for the fascists except to either sieze power and end American democracy, or shrivel into irrelevance. Then there could be room on the political spectrum for a new major party. Either on the right if the Democrats move to the left, or a progressive party if the Democrats move right to pursue former Republicans.

The president paused for dramatic effect before he walked onstage at his Tulsa rally. He was silhouetted under a blue and white “Make America Great Again” banner and against an American flag. And in the few seconds that he stood basking in adulation, he resembled a giant black rectangle. A massive, inanimate void.

And here’s an another, excruciatingly important factor to consider: the sociopathic policies are exactly what endear Mango Mussolini to his base, so while those types of ads motivate Dems, they can have a backfire effect of encouraging the durr hurr owned teh libz crowd (one reason I think such ads are better when they target the GOP as a whole, in order to remind low-info/apathetic non-voters that downballot races count too).
The beauty of ads that mock and demean trump for being weak is that they make him (and therefore anyone who supports him) look and feel like a loser as well (in fact, the only thing that could make the cultists desert him is something humiliating enough to forever destroy his alpha-bully image).

President Trump has declared an emergency and called up the National Guard, joined by regular Army scouts and topographers from Fort Sill, to locate and rescue the thousands of confused Trump followers who are still roaming the Oklahoma back country looking for Tulas. Efforts by locals to convince them there is no such place have been met with disbelief, dismissal, threats and gunfire, since Eric Trump himself said it so it has to be true.
Good points in this thread, except I’m not sure this really wrecks their whole data gathering op. If they had backups and version control in place it wouldn’t be difficult to just roll back to before all the bad data came in.

From 2016:
For starters, like Trump, he’s a political novice who has built a professional reputation for himself in Texas but has never worked in Washington…
He began by cold-calling local clients but soon graduated to major contracts with the likes of the Trump Organization, which led to gigs building websites for Trump Winery and the Eric Trump Foundation.
The presumptive Republican presidential nominee hired Parscale in 2012 to build a website for Trump International Realty. Parscale went on to work on sites for Trump Winery, the Eric Trump Foundation and a site for Trump’s wife, Melania.

Here’s another person I think has some good points and apparently knows what she’s talking about, but is overstating the damage to the Trump campaign’s data mining operation. They’ve been collecting this data for years now. Even if they have to filter out everything from Tulsa or roll back to an earlier version, they’d still have years’ worth of data collected.
This doesn’t wreck their whole op.
These are good points! But again, wouldn’t the problems only be with the data collected for this last event? if they have backups or version control, couldn’t they simply roll back to before they started taking reservations for Tulsa? Still plenty of data left.

Fresh polling intentions data especially on the run-up to the election is worth a lot more in dollar terms and applicability than last year’s mailing and email contact lists. The Trump campaign spent a lot of dollars, time and effort on this Tulsa rally to get those emails and addresses… they’re worthless, hopelessly contaminated. The best they could hope for is to get cards or something filled in by actual butts-in-seats attendees but again they’re looking at a stale audience, some of whom were boasting that Tulsa was the 36th Trump rally they’d attended, not fresh supporters which are the real harvest for this sort of operation.
This failure has cost them millions of dollars and thousands of man-hours, it will provide no significant upswing in voting intentions for the incumbent and there can be no ongoing engagement with new prospective voters and donors. Expect heads to be rolling out of the Trump campaign offices this week.

Which they might, knowing this bunch.
Tulsa also gets this. A bill for a couple of hundred thousand dollars that the Trump Campaign probably won’t pay. And a lawsuit for false arrest from the woman with a ticket who was arrested for “trespassing” due to the shirt (and mask?) she was wearing.

Yeah, I’m That Woman who can throw on clothes, make a sign and be out the door in less than 10 minutes. I got to the church (33 miles away) in less than 40 minutes.
And you know why I went? Because I rolled back on Luke Barnett’s sermon and caught this (sorry, it’s from the YT transcript and not cleaned up very much):
Some of you know that this coming Tuesday our entire campus is being leased out by an organization called turning-point USA and I learned just about a week ago that they had invited President Trump to speak at their event on this campus and so I knew that that would be a just a political nightmare for a pastor because we are not political we’re not a political organization but we did lease out our campus and so I begin to feel the firestorm a pressure from the mob out there saying things like you got to cancel this event you got it but I gave my word and all you really have the
other day is your integrity and if you don’t stand your integrity you don’t have anything left and I gave my word so I’m gonna stand I’m gonna practice what my dad has taught me now the mob will come and go the mob will you know be gone in a few in a few days but at least I still have my integrity that’s still intact. That may not mean much to people these days anymore but it means a lot to me because my dad taught me that integrity is a very important value.
I can tell you this is complete and utter horseshit. Luke Barnett knew long before a week ago that they’d rented out to Turning Point USA. When I heard that, I was like, HELL NO, got my sign and took off.
I let them know I was coming, so I was greated with a hearty, “Hello, Donna” (the name is Deana) when the police drove down from the campus in their golf cart.
I pay more taxes than Dream City Church does and it infuriates the hell out of me that “Dr.” Luke Barnett (he has a fake doctorate) would talk about “integrity” like this. It’s complete and utter horseshit.
And, as we all know, I am THAT WOMAN who can teach these numbnuts a lesson, Sunday after Sunday after Sunday about lying. They’re on the list.

Yeah, CA 37—he came in second in the primary with 7.6% of the vote vs. Karen Bass—D/Incumbent, who had 88.1%. He might be running, but I think he’s running in place.
I might be mistaken but I thought when we switched to the “Top 2” primaries here in California, if anyone gets more than 50% in those they win outright and there is no General. The general acts as a “run off”.
If that’s the case this guy already lost.

According to the SoS site:
If a candidate receives a majority of the vote (50 percent+1) in the primary election, will there still be a general election?
Yes. The top two vote-getters move on to the general election regardless of party preference or whether one candidate receives a majority of all votes cast in the primary election. Only candidates running for State Superintendent of Public Instruction or candidates for voter-nominated offices in special elections can win outright by getting a majority of the vote (50 percent + 1) in the primary election.

re: #40 Charles Johnson
I’m pretty skeptical that the Kpop kids really affected the turnout very much. They were giving out tickets to everyone who wanted one.
It’s far more likely that even a lot of Trump cultists are afraid of the coronavirus. Which they should be.
The kids just embarrassed Trump, and made the campaign look stupid and waste a lot of time and money doing things like setting up the outdoor stage and getting extra security.
The real takeaway from this should be: Trump couldn’t even sellout a 19k arena in an extremely red Red State when the tickets were free.

re: #440 Eric The Fruit Bat
He claims to have filtered out bogus phone numbers - problem is that there are millions upon millions of valid and active phone numbers that are used by remote sensing equipment, smart gluocometers, fall-detection pendants, etc.
Our village wells have a telephone number though unlisted (and a physical telephone).
That would be another thing: How’s he checking to see if an unlisted telephone number is valid or not without calling it?
