If you see Died Suddenly trending, it's because some conspiracy nuts have put together a movie about how the Covid vaccine is the correlative cause of all post-vaccination deaths. At this point I expect the Covid vaccine to be accused of shooting JFK and cancelling Firefly.
In footage of a company Zoom call on Saturday obtained by TMZ , Musk revealed that while the council really will be formed, it will be completely powerless. In a shocking twist, he said the crucial decision-making power will ultimately lie solely with him.
“We are going to do a content council, but it’s an advisory council,” Musk said in the call. “It’s not a… They’re not the ones who actually… At the end of the day it will be me deciding, and like any pretense to the contrary is simply not true. Because obviously I could choose who’s on that content council and I don’t need to listen to what they say.”
I have given up on them attempting to Go Big. Perhaps with new leadership. I have been completely under-awed by whatever our ‘cohesive’ national D strategy is. National Ds seem to have handled the last few elections very badly with no strong leadership and messaging. Short-armed Impeachment I Big Time. Never made a deal about Senators who let Chump off on two Impeachments. Did not go after sitting Rs for their involvement and/or complicity in J6, J6C was completely apolitical and only focused on Chump and unelected cronies. This last election had 2 or 3 huge motivators which could have seen us GAIN in Senate and House which Nat. Ds appeared to whiff on spectacularly.
People on this site hate hearing Ds being criticized. I basically have no problem with Ds overall or individually. Mostly fine, fine people doing great work. But as an Org, from the top - strategy, messaging, seizing momentum, kill shots continually escape them.
Back around 1960 dad brought home a sample of honeycomb floor base from the Boeing 707 fabrication to show us. He said it was very strong and lightweight but unfortunately stiletto heels tended to go through the carpeting and puncture it.
I don’t know if it comes from being amoral sociopaths, but the Republicans have a ‘killer instinct’ that is simply missing in Dems since LBJ. When Republicans get power they employ it ruthlessly and dare anyone to complain. Think about it: Mitch McConnell literally stole 2 seats on the SC and what happened to him or the GOP? Indirectly, that action did save the Dems in the midterms, but the Republicans unjustly gained the right to set the tone for major policies for decades. If you put this in a positive light, I suppose you could say that Dems want to work together and Republicans want to destroy their enemies.
McConnell now faces a fight with Scott and other Senate conservatives over whether to block a year-end spending package before Christmas.
The GOP leader wants to pass the omnibus package funding the federal government before the end of December, according to Senate Republican and Democratic sources. But he’s coming under increasing pressure from conservatives who want to freeze federal spending until January, when Republicans will take control of the House.
Scott told The Hill he plans to “actively” press for a stopgap funding measure freezing federal spending levels until next year, something he and Republican Sens. Mike Lee (Utah) and Ted Cruz (Texas) called for in September in a Fox News op-ed.
but here in America we understand recreation, and its pitfalls. See you soon. We hope.
Plus the holidays coming up and all. Plus Black Friday! It’s time to consume and give thanks. Somebody get Jumpin’ Jack a Peloton ASAP! Keep Jack off the roads!
Plus Billionaires want to thank the rubes for their status and also the entire justice system that keeps them untouchable. God bless the Job Creators.

According to Conservatives in Akron borough PA they are trying to cut a line item that gives money to the Ephrata Public Library citing conservative values.
This along with teachers or anyone involved with teaching folks to think, not how to think, will be under attack.
Can anyone give me an example what conservative values Trump has?
