"Bismillah"

No! We will not let you go!

"She'll be a multimillionaire before you know it."

She already is.

Once the NCAA allowed players to be compensated for their NIL (name, image, and likeness), she hit pay dirt.

" Truth Social makes a 13% recovery today."

Dead Baby bounce.

" It's more like my local gun ranges. Less supervision and still somehow less fatalities"

Well sure, if you just count one local gun Range. Now take them all, all across the world.

More accidents on average than a movie set, or less?

Movies haven't had one for decades. You can't say the same for a local gun range, except maybe yours.

"If I had my way I'd have a traveling abortion van driving around with a sign "Free abortions...get yours today...win a prize"."

So...you'd white out "--------" and write in "abortions"?!?

"Should have been 0 months. Playing with guns has well known consequences and everybody on set participated willingly."

I've heard some serious -----------, but this takes the cake.

Film sets are magnitudes safer than, say, oh, the top 100 areas where guns are used daily. Remember the last time someone died from gunfire on a movie set? DECADES AGO, despite the fact guns are fired on sets every day of every month of every year.

This tragedy happened because not one, but two safeguards FAILED. Both pleaded or were found guilty.

For a REAL comparison: what percentage of gun mishaps in America would happen if they had to pass through TWO safety experts before each firing?

YES, it's effing idiotic the person on the set pulling the trigger isn't the last word, but it's WORLD's better than letting Joe Rando-Extra make the safety call.

"What about all the BLM rioting?"

Anyone breaking the law should be prosecuted to the fullest extent.

Now you do J6, or Donald Trump.

On a related topic, do you see any cogent difference between protests due to a painful truth, versus riots based on obvious lies?

"I don't go to protests strictly for the potential of something getting out of hand"

Yeah, but someone on the other side of the crowd, a guy wearing black and gold, throws a Molotov cocktail during an otherwise peaceful gathering. If the MC ends up killing an innocent, should you get the death penalty?

"yeah I believe if you put yourself in a situation where others around you can jeopardize your freedom then maybe just maybe that's on you"

No you don't. And if you do, you're stupid: you've just given over your freedom to whatever rando anarchist has a beef that day. Plus, you've done EXACTLY what the anarchist wants: blame your most convenient political enemy for the RANDOs terrorism.

"It's pretty easy, if you can't behave yourself while protesting; you aren't actually protesting you're rioting."

A friend went to the local protest, and noticed guys in Hawaiian shirts showing up out of nowhere, throwing a projectile, then running away.

Should YOU go to jail for that?

"Good! No more "mostly peaceful" protests."

GREAT idea. Especially since 93% of BLM protests were 100% peaceful.

As opposed to, say, J6, which was 100% violent.*

*(using the same barometer)

"Well, imo, yeah - significantly overpriced."

I've heard similar companies with similar outlooks go in the $2 range.

"Truth Social Backers Baffled"

Here's a hint, morons: IT'S STILL OVERPRICED.

So keep buying!!!

A large part of the IRS funding can't be rescinded, since a chunk is going to the large-scale system overhaul.

And, of course the rhetoric about the "armed agents" is nothing but partisan bullschittt. The majority of "new"
agents are replacing old ones, and the vast majority of those won't be carrying guns. But ultimately, they will be able to focus on some higher-end scofflaws. It's about time.

Well, as the season wraps, I've certainly noticed a huge uptick in responses, and response time.

Call me crazy, but I believe it's incumbent on government to be able to answer how do I pay my taxes correctly?

" Not a single set of commendations, no stripes, no indication of rank in full dress"

So ... cosplay.

"years later, Hunter's Laptop is still a nothingburger."

Doesn't Rudy Colludy have the hard drive? What's he waiting for???

""79 percent of Americans" will believe anything."

As George Washington once warned, "Don't believe everything you read on the internet."

"#171 Tell me how..."

Easy. The answer to every one of your questions is embedded in Article 13.

Here's a hint from the big kids' table: If your central tenet is our genocide, you have de facto forced us into the same stance.

Now...

...enjoy your pudding, and don't stay up past your bedtime.

As I've pointed out multiple times, get ready for sob stories from MAGAts who invested...ahem...let's say more than prudent amounts, and will now commence whining...

...about how bad Biden's economy is on them.

" Do the Palestinians have the same right to resist aggression and oppression"

Tell us how massacring young adults at a music festival is resisting aggression and oppression.

"Evangelicals know he's lying just to get elected. They'll still vote for him."

I'll take Cognitive Dissonance for $1,600, Mr. Jennings.

"they didn't know what the ffck they were talking about when they told you this"

Do you believe they were trying their best with the information they had at the time...

...or were they more like Trump, and willfully lying when they knew better?

"You wouldn't spread COVID to others"

Yeah, that was a terrible claim.

That said, which way did vaccinations turn the Macro dial? I mean for the ones who got vaccines.

And why didn't you mention viral load? Are you pretending viral load doesn't increase severity, or the odds of passing it along?!?

Are you using Vernon's calculator, or just the basic Republican Math, where you either make up the numbers, or the meaning?

"a discussion about whether or not we're setting a precedent on future tax provisions having a pay-for. We have not normally done that, but we've done that in this bill."

Did you catch that? Something Republicans "have not normally done", while they've demanded dollar-for-dollar spending offsets with every new bill from the Dems.

I wonder if that side of the guy's face ever talks to the other side....

"1,634 had attempted to register, but election officials had caught all the applications..."

Okay, this claim doesn't pass the smell test. If they missed one, how would they know unless they proactively proved all others?!?

It reminds me when USAA told me they're "pretty good at security" as I was turning in an embezzler they missed.
