I'm visiting LA and the famous garbage Mexican chain restaurant, Del Taco, just fed me some drat fine tacos. Then the manager tried to kick out a homeless guy who had come in before (or so he claimed) and the homeless guy just kept telling him to go back to Mexico. I'm so woke I didn't know what to be more outraged by and my head exploded. Thanks Trump

At a guess, they probably were contentious until video came out. Haven't researched that at all but it seems to be the pattern. Watch Israel get the black lives matter cell phone video treatment. How much that accomplishes in a world where Alex Jones is allowed to continue breathing I couldn't say but they'd deserve it.

Even after video came out, a majority of Israelis said he should walk.

That's the best story I've read in a while and I'm expecting a lot more like it in the next four years. If the nation is determined to run headlong into the brick wall on a motorized scooter, I'll gladly be the person holding the beer.

Smashed before noon
Meanwhile, somewhere in the third world, a judge has resigned after evidence emerged of him demanding sex from female defendants in exchange for favors.

quote:

“The bond or release of these women or their family or friends were done by their request in exchange for sexual favors,” the commission’s statement said.

It said the commission has recorded video statements from more than a dozen women and obtained text messages that supported the allegations. It said there were other undisputed allegations against the judge, including that he sometimes personally showed up at the county jail to order the release without bail of friends, and that he would give them rides home in his personal vehicle.

Telephone calls and an email to Mr. Parker’s law office and to other numbers associated with him were not returned on Wednesday, but he denied the allegations to The Associated Press on Tuesday. Asked why he didn’t contest them, he told The A.P: “I have young children and I don’t want them exposed to that kind of crap.”

Note that this is separate from the other Arkansas judge who was accused of sexual misconduct last year.

That guy was into "ordering male defendants to be spanked, engage in sex acts and bend over for thousands of photographs to fulfill their “community service,”

Donnie lies constantly about things he's said. So printing off his favorite form of communication large is probably the only way to hold his feet to the fire. It's probably not effective because he doesn't live in reality but I don't fault Sanders for trying.

They're kind of forced by circumstance to quote his tweets. What else are they going to do, quote the brain damaged word salad that is his actual speech? Tweets are how President Elect Chucklefuck puts out his policy positions and handles international negotiations.

It hasn't been that newsy of a day, but it has been hilarious to see scattered Republicans suddenly realize the actual consequences of a full Obamacare repeal when they don't have the slightest clue on what to replace it with.

Also, sometimes their social media team does something stupid:

Gitmo isn't entirely on Obama. The level of opposition didn't really make that possible. What Donnie is doing is backing out of all the stuff he promised before even being sworn in.

I get what you're saying, but my point is that he takes "breaking a promise" to a whole new level. There's no pretense of an excuse, and there's no attempt at saving face. He straight up embraces the fact, standing behind a podium, that he said poo poo to get elected with no intention of following through. Ultimately it's a good thing because if we keep pushing this far enough, maybe it will get so stupid that people will start caring again. Maybe?

"Telling it like it is" is exactly what got a poo poo ton of people to vote for him. They're more likely to appreciate his lack of excuses than I think GIP wants to recognize.
