Remember this?
Comedy ensued on MSNBC last night when pundit Tucker Carlson happily admitted that when a guy hit on him in a men’s room in Georgetown, he went back with “someone I knew and grabbed him… and hit him against the stall with his head.” Then the cops came and arrested the gay dude. But not Tucker!
Tucker sees trouble all around him. He should look in the mirror instead.

Honestly, I think he made it up, or at least the time and place.
I love typos or autocorrects that are fun like that, I see the lag as an opportunity to admire them before they go away 
He’s trying to make the paranoia that made him cancel Victory Day celebrations seem like something real and prove there truly are threats. Putin’s the master of false flag explosions. Pity he didn’t actually blow himself up to prove how scary things are. Feh.
Tuck made money for Fox all right. Supposedly viewership is down, but they’ll be back. Where else can they go?
I would think that Russia has upgraded their defense systems since 1987.
How many law enforcement agencies “brought him down” and yet none could get there in time to save anyone. They love standing around with their thumbs in their too-tight belts, ruminating on … what - lunchtime yet?
The part that bugs me, and truly not intended as an attack but disappointment instead, is the shock that reverberates when these cretins say things like this.
Please stop being shocked! This is who they are.
Act accordingly, tossing it back in their faces at every opportunity. With Trumplicans having supermajorities, Florida democrats have no legislative sway in their legislature. But they still have voices.
The Canadian Liberal Party has enjoyed long stretches of majorities in the nation. And yet they were once reduced to holding only two seats (2!).
You know how they clawed themselves back? A group of devoted young, relentless out-of-office opposition leaders went on the news each and every day to counter the government’s actions. They literally rebuilt the party from the ground up, and returned to prominence within a decade.
Exactly, Rupert will install a “Scalise” (David Duke w/o the Baggage) in the nighttime lineu
This new person will bring back more subtle dog whistle approach and Fox will claim its demonstrating moderation.
Smoke and Mirrors.
Do you mean that you don’t see the edit show up right after you make it? I don’t see a change after I make an edit unless I refresh the page manually or a new comment refreshes the page.
But we’re doing our darndest to catch up with them!
I sometimes have to cancel and retype a comment several times before the system actually takes it. Pretty frustrating. Also still getting repeatedly logged out.
yeah, we’ll get back to ya
In college a friend of mine was doubling in Russian and Journalism. I was trying to read some Russian literature in translation (Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamozov, Eugene Onegin) and I couldn’t finish any of them. The Dostoyevsky novels in particular were unrelentingly depressing. He was just back from an exchange semester in Leningrad. I asked him, “This stuff must be better in Russian, right? There is so much misery in the English translations I’m trying to read.” He said, “Actually, they are more depressing in Russian. There are moods in Russian that just don’t have parallels in English.”
Then he went on to add, “Basically any word in Russian for a tool more complex than a hoe is a loan word from French or German. Pushkin was mostly responsible for that, but it says a lot about the impoverished state of Russian technology when the Industrial Revolution was really getting ramped up in Western Europe.”
Mukasey: If I were a district judge and somebody wanted to fly me on his private plane on a vacation with his family, I were friendly with that person, would I have refused and endangered the friendship? I’m not sure that I would’ve.
From this we are to conclude that those who interpret the law and render judgement on others under that law are immune from the law. They can do whatever they want because the law is what they say. If you disagree, take it up with the Supreme Court.
Well, they still have Smartmatic on the horizon. More damage to come, I imagine.
Did he flog him with his bowtie?
Exactly this. And I wouldn’t say “upsetting” as much as “Now he’s a different type of liability.” The laughable plausible deniability of saying it’s just an act can’t fly anymore, and I guess that’s a problem to these amoral assholes.
Endangered the friendship? What kind of a wealthy “friend” would feel so wounded as to end a friendship because their friend had to refuse on grounds of judicial ethics (including the appearance of a conflict of interest)? A real friend would be content with having his judge-friend over for dinner.
But if the judge did decide to travel on his friend’s private jet and enjoy, at their friend’s expense, a lavish vacation, the least the judge could do is report the trip on their disclosure form.
