The National Association of Hispanic Journalists tells "Doctor" Jill Biden: No somos tacos.

Screenshot (2513).png

By the way, the Hill did not report that Jill Biden called Mexicans tacos.

No, they thought the real story was: Republicans pounce.

Right rips Jill Biden for saying Hispanic community as unique as 'breakfast tacos'

The rule that when Republicans screw up, the story is Republicans screwing up, but when Democrats screw up, the story is Republicans underhandedly scoring cheap political points over it, is literally never violated. The media follows this rule every single time, with a 100% compliance rate.

I love Japanese people. They are unique like Bento Boxes.

Hard to believe, but huge if true:

CNN's poll analyst Harry Enten says the January 6th hearings have not changed Democrats' prospects and the public still mostly cares about, get this, inflation.

Tapper noted Democrats are polling "poorly" in a generic House ballot, and asked Enten, "Have these hearings changed that outlook at all?"

"Not really, no," Enten said....


Enten concluded the hearings are not a "top issue for Americans at this point," and said polling shows voters trust Republicans more than Democrats on the economy.

"The top issue for Americans at this point is not the Jan. 6 committee hearings, it is not Donald Trump," Enten said. "It's inflation!"

Sounds like AllahPundit's favorite TV show won't be renewed past January. Sad!

I wonder what new obsession he'll spend all of his time and emotion on?

The New York Times found that there has never been a president whose party was so determined to abandon as their standard-bearer:

turn-the-page-e1657643635877.jpg

Via John Sexton, the Times finds the only president who the party was almost as sour on was (wait for it...) Jimmy Carter, and Jimmy Carter had a live, announced challenger (Ted Kennedy, tanned, rested, and towel-dried from Chappaquiddick).

About the closest we've come to significant numbers of a president's base wanting to turn the page came in early 1995, shortly after President Bill Clinton's Democratic Party got drubbed in the 1994 midterm elections. A CBS News poll in January 1995 showed 37 percent of Democrats preferred "someone else," but 56 percent still wanted to renominate Clinton. But that's still nowhere near Biden's numbers...

About the closest analog to where Biden is right now is a June 1979 CBS News/New York Times poll that showed Democrats favored Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) over President Jimmy Carter 52-23. Another candidate got 8 percent. Carter went on to win renomination over Kennedy, anyway.

Commenters point out "But they have no one else!" and I agree, which is why I believe we'll have a billionaire ride in -- Mark Cuban, Howard Shorr, or even Michael Bloomberg again. I realize that the Democrat Party doesn't like these people, but they didn't like Biden much either, but rallied around him because they needed someone who could plausibly win.

There's also the possibility that I don't even like talking about that Duane Johnson will run.

People talk about Michelle Obama, but I think the Obamas just want to grift money from leftwing media companies and have brunch with celebrities and enjoy same-sex affairs without much scrutiny.

Speaking of useless wannabe royals:

I should have included this in the last post:

APdarkconspiracies.jpg

Omni Cerem responds, using a term I started using some time back, and which I think needs to be used much, much more: "Legitimacy crisis."

omrilegitimacycrisis.jpg

Legitimacy is created by professionalism, objectivity, sobriety, accuracy, and competence.

The professional classes have almost entirely abandoned these five necessary prerequisites for legitimacy -- but then still demand the legitimacy that flow only when those five prerequisites are present, and begin suggesting fascist controls on the population in order to require the public act as if the professional classes still possessed legitimacy.

This will lead, obviously, to... very bad things.


Elon Musk has damaged Twitter and I'm sure he's all busted up about that.

"His engagement with Twitter took a severe toll on the company," said Jason Goldman, a member of Twitter's founding team who has also served on its board of directors. "Employees, advertisers and the market at large cannot have conviction in a company whose path is unknowable and which will now go to court to complete a transaction with a bad-faith actor."


The precarious situation underscores why Twitter is set to sue Mr. Musk as soon as this week to force a completion of the deal. The court battle is likely to be protracted and immense, involving months of expensive litigation and high-stakes negotiations by elite lawyers. A resolution is far from certain -- Twitter might win, but, if it loses, Mr. Musk could walk away by paying a breakup fee. Or the two sides could renegotiate or settle.

On Monday, the damage that Mr. Musk, 51, has inflicted was evident. Twitter's stock plunged more than 11 percent to one of its lowest points since 2020 as investors anticipated the coming legal battle. Since Twitter accepted Mr. Musk's acquisition offer, on April 25, its stock has lost over a third of its value as investors have grown increasingly skeptical that the deal would get done on the agreed terms. (In contrast, the tech-heavy Nasdaq index was down about 12.5 percent in the same period.)

OUT: "Women Hardest Hit"

IN: "Trans Women Hardest Hit"

transhardesthit.jpg

It's terrific that we've shifted our military's priority from waging war to waging wokeness.

"How am I supposed to wake up every day and put on a freaking uniform that says United States army when the United States doesn't even give a rat's a** about me? It gives more of a rat's a** about the guns they're allowed to buy that kill the children that I’m forced to give birth to."

The neocons are culpable in building this Woke Non-Military, and yet they still want to pretend its fit to fight all the wars they're determined to fight.

How about the neocons first gain the courage to stand up to their wives and girlfriends and fight the non-war in the bureaucracy and in public policy and push back firmly against wokeness and trans surgeries and gender equality mania and the rest of it? Here's the problem, neocons: This might make you a little unpopular with the urban liberal crowds you consider your kith and kin.

But before we talk about any of the endless wars you're rarin' to send other people to fight again, we're going to insist you enlist to fight this non-war pencil-pusher action first.

But you won't even do that.

Chickenhawk cowards.

Remember: freedom exists for the asking. America exists for the asking. When King George III was presented with the Declaration of Independence, he simply said "Oh OK".

If an increasing number of citizens of a "democracy" have lost faith, isn't *that* a function of "democracy"?!!!!!!

Isn't a "democracy" rather agnostic about what *should* be the popular opinion, just based on the preference for a "democracy" and whatever prevailing opinion is?

To me, this situation is hilarious. First the proles got educated, then they got control of information through the internet. And as soon as that happened the proles realized that the anointed were a bunch of snake oil salesmen behind a curtain pulling levers.

So now the anointed want control of information and further destruction of education. Hell, they would rather have the whole country poor ("you will own nothing!) than to lose their undeserved power.

I'm sure the crazy left will find all sorts of skeletons in his closet (sexual harassment claims, bad tweets, etc.) that will prevent his nomination. Although he'd probably do much better in the general election -- you have to win the party nomination first.

Looks like Gov. Pritzker from Illinois is vying for the job. He at least has governing experience which Democrats care about more than Republicans do. And he's loaded, from one of the wealthiest, and most politically active, families in America. His family's long involvement in far-left circles gives him a lot of red with the Dem base.

The deal was in the works for a year when they announced they wanted to pull out. Tiffany sued, claiming it's a ploy to lower the price of the initial deal. Long story short , they had ...meeting of the minds and the deal went through.

It's not the advertisers - advertising is always a gamble and if you get bad results you try another platform. Advertisers understand that there is no easy way to accurately measure how effective a platform is other than trying and looking at results.

The people they ripped off are the investors. Investors like to sue over fraud.

Everyone with two brain cells is dumping twitter stock. And those that aren't are working on the fiduciary lawsuit against the board of directors of twitter.


Something is going on because twatter stock has went from $70 a share to $34 a share in the last 12 months. Losing almost 50% of your companies value in less than a year is never good. Remember musk offered to buy the company for $54 a share and twatter has lost $20 a share since his offer. I am beginning to think some people on here were correct, musk never intended to buy the company, he just wanted to destroy it.

237 Insty called Trump the Stay-Puffd Marshmallow Man, that the liberal elite willed into being as a nemesis.

Someone in the last thread made that comparison and it is true. You see people with a knack for creating enemies out of nice or reclusive people, and then you find yourself becoming that nemesis. And extremely annoyed at any resemblance to the previous scarecrows.

239 I think the only way you swap an incumbent out is they go willingly without a fight. Like LBJ.

I'm not sure Biden (Jill and Joe) are going to do that.

I think Trump possibly running again keeps Joe there. If say Trump drops dead, I think it would be almost certain Biden drops out for his reelection bid.

Even a billionaire would have trouble knocking off an incumbent Democrat President. And what are they going to run on to appease the Left? More stimulus?

They really have painted themselves into a corner.

I've heard the chess theory that Elon wants Twitter to take him to court where discovery will provide him the information that he's asked for, and he will buy Twitter at a much-discounted rate after he confirms the suspected percentage of bots that Twitter has lied about for a long time.

The theory suggests that Elon knew that Twitter was not going to let him walk away. In order to show adherence to their side of the agreement (because they are alleging that only Musk has violated the agreement), they have to *prove* that they have been honest about the numbers.

Musk suspects that he's going to win, prove that he should get a discounted rate out of Twitter, and walk away with Twitter ownership anyway.

That's the theory.

Most of what I've sat through is nonsense.

HOWEVER, I recently completed a graduate-level course on cross-cultural understanding in the classroom. I grew up in and previously taught in predominantly Euro-heritage (that's my own phrase!) districts. Thanks to this class and having taught several students of Hispanic-heritage this past year, I've learned how each country's culture is unique, from slang to gestures--just as people from European, Asian, and African countries differ from each other.

May we please go back to the concept of universality, looking for and building on our similarities? "Diversity," by definition, is DIVISIVE.

Lizzy is the Ultimate Karen. Everything she dislikes or isn't run exactly as she would run it, she brands as illegal, immoral, racist, misogynist, transphobic or just pure evil. During her run for the Dem candidacy in 2020 she claimed she had a plan for everything. I'm sure she did. In reality, her plans for everything are the same as Joe's plans: My way or the highway, bub. No discussion, no debate. Submit or else!

312 the State Republican Executive Committee bowed to pressure from Gov. Greg Abbott and RPT Vice Chair Cat Parks, and deleted the party’s Gab account due to accusations of it hosting hate speech

While these battles are raging, Cat Parks, the vice-chair of the Texas GOP, is upset that an LGBT group is not being allowed to advance their agenda at the GOP state convention. She has even vowed to not enter the convention hall since there will not be a pro-LGBT group represented.

I would be okay with Musk "over paying" for twitter to have at least one platform that had something approaching free speech.

There's no question though, Twitter is committing massive fraud saying only 5% are bots. Its more like 20%+ easy.

388 Would Musk be on the hook for that if he acquires Twitter?
Posted by: davidt at July 12, 2022 06:01 PM (oTZbj)
=================
yes.

Unless he can motivate a class action suit beforehand and then force Twitter to pay the eventual settlement cost.

Which might not be a bad strategy for Musk.

It would put Twitter in a no-win position: Fight the suit and risk losing big time (because they represented one number of bots to advertisers and different numbers to Musk), or settle the suit...and lose big time, because they showed different numbers to different people.

the reason being, he is buying stock and not assets.

If you buy all the shares of stock, you own the "old company" assets and liabilities, known or unknown.

If, on the other hand, you buy assets, you leave liabilities behind for the old owner to pay off. Public companies are always stock purchases, for obviouos reasons, and private company purchases (partucuarly smaller companies) are almost always asset purchases.

What's the opposite of TDS?

You really think Elon did all of this with Twitter to sabotage Trump's Truth platform?

Trump sabotaged that all by himself.

I think Elon has major issues, not the hero we're looking for, but he's not the enemy either. Musk could have lived a pretty comfortable life being a safe liberal that "saved the world" with his electric cars and been adored by the glitterati.

482 > Bell peppers, cut in half lengthwise, take a spoon and scrape out the seeds. Rinse.
Remove the stem.

I prefer to stand the pepper up and cut just inside the walls. You don't end up with the seeds and center pith attached. If you want a really nice bell pepper, cut a thin layer off the inside of the pepper, removing even more of the pith. Pith is bitter or at least less flavorful.
