According to a NPR thing this afternoon, we're currently holding 15,000 migrant children in detention centers across the country, and an average of 175 cross the border each day.

Wow, this is super depressing.

Trump’s latest twitter video in front of the White House is really effective messaging. Clips of prominent Democrats saying they want to build a wall followed by Trump saying they’re hypocrites who don’t want it now only because of him.

Are those democrats actually hypocrites or is there something I’m missing. Because both seem plausible. I assume Trump’s wall proposal is larger in scale, but I don’t know the details and I suspect most don’t.

Ugh, we killed her twice. Our hosed up border policy forces families to make dangerous (and deadly) crossings in the desert to avoid our border patrol. And then that border patrol is grossly negligent in caring for people crossing the desert and you end up with this. She should have never been in danger in the first place, and she sure as gently caress should have been taken care of when in the border patrol’s custody.

The larger scale is the stupid part.

Tossing up some fences in place where crossing keep happening is an affordable deterrent.

More then half of America does not like the idea of people entering our country by just walking in.

Trumps plan:
30 foot concrete wall

I honestly thought we would build it as a jobs project.

Instead our “jobs project” is tents for Mexican kids and huge profits for the people running them and investing in them.

The guy who buys into the George Soros, Perfidious Jew mythos keeps giving the Trump Administration the benefit of the doubt and is concerned about Concerned Trolling shutting them out.

:thunk:

Anyway, my point is that, like immigration, the Trump administration isn't really worthy of the benefit of the doubt when it comes to charity-related grift and fraud. The Trump Foundation is literally under investigation right now, and there have been two years of "shady payment" stories about the inauguration before the criminal investigation was announced.

Hold the gently caress up. Are you calling coffeetable an antisemite based on this post?

coffeetable posted:

like, do you not see the similarities between all this and some of the bullshit levelled at soros? rich, powerful people move money around in dubious - but legal! - ways all the time, and they talk to rich, powerful people world over as they do.

i think trump is corrupt and i think trump is stupid. but ten stories like this doesn't mean much more than one story, because if you're the kind of person who one story like this is written about, you're likely the kind of person who ends up with the other nine too

e: to be clear, the fact the US attorneys are looking into the inaug committee means something dodgy went on. equating the $25m payment with the $25m settlement though is dumb as heck

Because that's such a stupid reading on it's face that I think I must not have understood your meaning. If you're going to throw around accusations of antisemitism you better having something to base it on, that behavior is toxic and should not be tolerated.

Cream of anything is disgusting and can be replaced with a roux and some stock or broth, but I'd imagine this "cook book" contains plenty of the former and none of the latter.

cream of mushroom is a roux with cream and mushroom

buying it in cans is blasphemous not ideal, but understandable

unless you're against putting cream in soup, which, sure?

Macklin, you son of a bitch

So as an aside here, he is part of the 'The Daily Shoah' podcast, which is run by Mike Enoch. A few weeks ago, Mike Enoch's very, sweet, normal, older sister posted this plea for people to take a stance against him and his ilk and to report his Twitter account. He was banned from Twitter just a couple days after she posted it. In this post, she talked about how once he was doxxed her ENTIRE family started to get harassed - the alt-right fucks were posting photos of her kids on Twitter and their forums saying they were going to find her and murder her kids, etc etc. Her family had completely disowned him and none of them speak to him anymore - but that didn't matter. As a result of all the attention he got, it spilled over onto his whole family. They apparently had no idea he had this entire online persona until he was doxxed.

We were talking about James Fields a couple days ago and how his mom was oblivious to his alt-right beliefs. You hear about these loving maniacs and it is easy to forget the damage they leave in their wake cascades out past their overt targets.

Ollie North has been fully rehabilitated as a RW talking head for years now. When the Iranians got their money back that the US Govt had been holding since the 70s, he was on Fox News the same day to say without any sense of irony that it was treasonous to be making any deals at all with Iran.
