The biggest thing that they cannot really talk about are the Charges. Our Justice System

  • can be torturously slow and 100% corrupt

  • can be torturously slow and 50% corrupt

  • can be torturously slow and 0% corrupt

We know nothing in any event…and that’s why the subjunctive is the ESL of what we are dealing with

OT we were doing cartwheels about Weisselberg and Trump seven days ago…the GOP Bluster Machine cranked up and it and LO!! Weisselberg doesn’t exist and Trump will run for a third term successfully in 2028.

Fuck Larry Summers. A human wrecking ball! And a bully - managed to take over over Harvard’s Endowment $$$ years back and quickly lost about 1.5 Billion $$$. Why is he still important?

Inflation can be like a runaway train but Biden’s economic team and Fed Reserve Powell will do everything in their power to keep it a 2%. Republicans are useless.

Last month, inflation rose at its fastest pace since 2009.

Only because it’s measured year-over year. Prices in April 2020 dropped rather notably due to the pandemic. Gasoline in particular got real cheap.

I remember the R meme, “The POTUS does not affect gas prices” during the W years.

Also too: You should get a cable show, I’d watch it.

Can we do it in a three-ring format? Maybe have pundits come on and compete for talking time by trying to do impossible challenges with ping pong balls?

You say “inflation,” I say “price gouging.”

If price gouging during a crisis is bad, shouldn’t it also be bad after the crisis?
