US Politics, January 2022 — a pro-God, pro-family, pro-bitcoin state

I guess I also had some notion that the middle would shift on account of personality/temperament/reputation/significance (yet TBD) although strictly by counts no and that there would be accommodation.

I don't care how rude it is to say, but Jim Clyburn is a total asshole

Agreed.

are we taking the month off?

We are all bored apes now.

Complaining about politics right now is like Sterling Hayden at the end of "The Killing:" “Eh, what’s the difference?” Nothing I can do except wait and see if democracy survives, no biggie.

Speaking of which, I thought this was pretty funny:

Find a necromancer to revive Harry Reid IMO

The fuck?

EXCLUSIVE: Rudy Giuliani was last week unmasked as an exiting costumed contestant in the taping of the first episode of #TheMaskedSinger. We hears that as soon as they saw Giuliani, judges Ken Jeong & Robin Thicke quickly left the stage in protest https://t.co/6b1rGi3k2Z

US Politics February 2022: no one in this country knew the name of the last leader of ISIS

one take:

Biden will address the nation later this morning from the White House about the U.S. raid in Syria that killed the leader of the Islamic State group.

In a statement Thursday morning, Biden announced the counterterrorism mission in northwest Syria “to protect the American people and our Allies, and make the world a safer place.”

“Thanks to the skill and bravery of our Armed Forces, we have taken off the battlefield Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurayshi — the leader of ISIS. All Americans have returned safely from the operation,” Biden added.

that's number one, here's two:

Residents in the area of the raid described a thunderous, early morning assault involving multiple helicopters and heavy machine gun fire.

The White Helmets, a Syrian civil defense group that works in areas of Syria not under government control, said they recovered 13 bodies, including those of six children and four women, from a house that appeared to be the target of the operation.

They also said they treated a nearby resident and a young girl who lived in the house, whose entire family they said was killed. UNICEF, in a statement, confirmed that six children were killed.

Two U.S. officials with knowledge of the situation said the civilian casualties were caused by a “terrorist” in the targeted compound who detonated explosives. One of the officials said the explosion killed the man “and members of his own family, including women and children.”

oops, meant to post that on the new one

Thanks, KM.
