It was a cheeky birthday gift for a hard-charging boss, a 32-page book of one-liners compiled by colleagues at his company. “The Portable Bloomberg: The Wit and Wisdom of Michael Bloomberg,” presented in 1990 to the future mayor of New York City, even featured drawings of its namesake in gladiatorial garb.https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/14/us/politics/michael-bloomberg-women.html
One remark attributed to Mr. Bloomberg went like this: “If women wanted to be appreciated for their brains, they’d go to the library instead of to Bloomingdale’s.” Another line, purportedly Mr. Bloomberg’s sales pitch for his eponymous computer terminal, said the machine will “do everything,” including oral sex, although a cruder term was used.
“I guess,” Mr. Bloomberg was quoted as saying, “that puts a lot of you girls out of business.”
When the pamphlet resurfaced during Mr. Bloomberg’s 2001 mayoral run, he dismissed the comments as “borscht belt jokes” and said he did not recall saying them. The story line receded after the 9/11 terror attacks, and Mr. Bloomberg went on to win election three times over.
Uhuh
So the best take I have seen with regards to the Republican's defense of Trump during impeachment is that they don't believe that attempting a crime is a criminal offense under judicial law. That's their #1 argument. Incredible.
By reilo Go To PostSo the best take I have seen with regards to the Republican's defense of Trump during impeachment is that they don't believe that attempting a crime is a criminal offense under judicial law. That's their #1 argument. Incredible.Don’t forget that hearsay evidence doesn’t matter. The only witnesses that matter are the ones who listened to the call and we are going to stop them from testifying. Well, except Colonel Vindman but for some reason, he doesn’t count
Giuliani has been tweeting things tying himself to trump and everyone has been like “Hahahaha look at the free lawyer hurting his client” and I’ve always maintained his doing this purposefully to protect himself from the Buss. In fact, his defenses in the SDNY case almost require him to turn on Trump. Now he’s just making public threats
Btw ... if you’re wondering how big of a piece of shit Lindsey is, he said he blocked the Armenian genocide bill because he didn’t want to pass it while turkeys dictator is here
Just found out that Matt Gaetz grew up in the house used to film The Truman Show

3 Indiana Judges Suspended After White Castle Brawl That Left 2 Of Them Wounded

3 Indiana Judges Suspended After White Castle Brawl That Left 2 Of Them Wounded
Back in May, three Indiana judges got into a fight. It was the crescendo of an incident brimming with colorful details: a gaggle of judges drinking the night before a judicial conference, a failed attempt to visit a strip club called the Red Garter, a brawl in the parking lot of an Indianapolis White Castle.
The altercation apparently started sometime after 3 a.m., when one of the judges, Sabrina Bell, raised a middle finger at two men yelling from a passing SUV, and ended after one of those men shot two of the judges.
In between, the three judges took a number of actions that "discredited the entire Indiana judiciary," according to an opinion posted by the Indiana Supreme Court this week, suspending the judges.
The court found that the three — Andrew Adams, Bradley Jacobs and Sabrina Bell — had "engaged in judicial misconduct by appearing in public in an intoxicated state and behaving in an injudicious manner and by becoming involved in a verbal altercation." Adams and Jacobs engaged in further judicial misconduct "by becoming involved in a physical altercation for which Judge Adams was criminally charged and convicted."
The document lays out the events as soberly as possible, but the details remain spicy:"While in town to attend a statewide educational conference for judicial
officers, 10 hours before the program convened, Respondents walked the
streets of downtown Indianapolis in a heavily intoxicated state. When
Judge Bell extended her middle finger to a passing vehicle, neither Judge
Adams nor Judge Jacobs discouraged the provocation or removed
themselves from the situation."
The three had ended up at a White Castle after trying to go to a strip club at 3 a.m. and finding it closed. A fourth judge went into the White Castle, while Bell, Adams and Jacobs stood outside.
Two men in the passing vehicle, Alfredo Vazquez and Brandon Kaiser, parked their car after the gesture from Bell.
Bell and Vasquez traded further insults. A physical altercation ensued among the four men, with Adams and Vasquez allegedly hitting and kicking each other as Jacobs and Kaiser wrestled on the ground. Kaiser then allegedly pulled a gun and shot Adams once in the stomach and Jacobs twice in the chest.
Adams and Jacobs were both seriously wounded and required emergency surgeries; Jacobs was hospitalized for two weeks.

Rudy our there doing interviews with the guardian lobbing threats at Trump and then this comes out
I still think there’s a small small chance trump resigns and has Pence pardon him on the way out. It’s safest bet for most of his legal issues
By Fenderputty Go To PostI still think there’s a small small chance trump resigns and has Pence pardon him on the way out. It’s safest bet for most of his legal issuesI could only see that happening if he loses the election next year. If he's going to leave anyway, he may as well absolve himself of his sins while walking out that door.
That is dumb as shit
Good that people are realizing Canada isn’t exactly an easy place to just immigrate to or even visit. That image that has been pushed was always a lie

Apparently Marie Yovanovitch is to blame for Somalia.
Edit: As I type they are reading Trump's live tweets to her to respond

Schiff manuvering into witness intimidation live was amazing.
have to pause at the moment--woman was completely railroaded and it's hard to listen to honestly
certain things get done under the table in that business and people lose jobs, but the degree to which trump has rolled beyond that to intimidation tactics is really disgusting

It's funny cause that phone call he's trying to use to obfuscate away from the actual call at hand, happened before Biden announced. lololololol
By Perfect Blue Go To PostThat is dumb as shitNever got this. Must be some misunderstanding because Canadians tend to be considered as nicer but immigration has always be difficult, way more so than the US.

I imagine they have always been shit. The water smells like shit and the city have been sinking for centuries. That said it was a cool place to visit for the historical value.
By Lunatic Go To PostNever got this. Must be some misunderstanding because Canadians tend to be considered as nicer but immigration has always be difficult, way more so than the US.Our government is really great at PR.
Apparently, the president is free to commit any crime not specifically listed in the US Constitution.
Don JR’s book hit #1 in tbe NYT best sellers list with an asterisk. That asterisk notes bulk buys. Turns out the GOP bull bought his book for him using donations lmfao

She worked hard to say she wasn't fearing for her safety as well.
Jesus the projection. Dude was literally make corrupt personal enrichment deals while inserting the Biden / crowd strike conspiracy into the narrative. We know two of Perry’s buddies got contracts
I really don't understand what Castor is trying to do. His line of questioning is strange and doesn't do much to do defend Trump.
By DY_nasty Go To PostTrump and the GOP reallllllllllly didn't gameplan this at allDamn so you mean to say Trump isn’t some genius puppet master
