Remember when Trish Regan was apolitical on Bloomberg? And Lara Logan on CBS? Hell the was a time when Maria bartiromo was sane. It's almost as if political tv is a loving game to make money or something.

Wylie posted:From the Point of Light in a Weary World department, Montgomery, Alabama just elected its first-ever black mayor, Steven Reed, by a 67% vote. He was in a runoff against David Woods, who was running on a platform of Being A White Dude and Not Being Joe Reed's Kid. hey that's nice. My friend in Alabama was volunteering for Reed, seems like a solid guy.

You know that clip basically is twenty seconds to that loving moron because he either stops paying attention or the dementia really kicks into high gear and he loses the ability to perceive time. The fucker is tossing our allies to Turkish and Russian-backed wolves, likely letting ISIS regroup due to apathy of the same, and he is sitting there pissing away on Twitter with Sean Hannity clips. I cannot loving wait until he dies of whatever. Stroke. Aneurysm. His head explodes like the guy in Scanners. I don't give a gently caress. I just cannot wait to get the news notification that this hateful idiot is dead. e: I've hit a pretty new level of mad in the last few weeks and probably need to take a breather.

Louisiana car insurance is some of the highest in the nation, and that's because it's literally full of lovely drivers who file bodily injury claims after every (multiple) accident. No idea why the Orange Skull mentioned it.

Grouchio posted:What was Huey Long's stance towards Axis Germany? His VP pick was super into it quote:On November 20, 1938, two weeks after Kristallnacht (the Nazi attack on German and Austrian Jews, their synagogues, and businesses), Coughlin, referring to the millions of Christians killed by the Communists in Russia, said "Jewish persecution only followed after Christians first were persecuted."[44] After this speech, some radio stations, including those in New York City and Chicago, began refusing to air Coughlin's speeches without subjecting his scripts to prior review and approval. In New York City, his programs were cancelled by WINS and WMCA, and Coughlin broadcast only on the Newark part-time station WHBI.[45] On December 18, 1938 thousands of Coughlin's followers picketed the studios of station WMCA in New York City to protest the station's refusal to carry the priest's broadcasts. A number of protesters yelled anti-semitic statements, such as "Send Jews back where they came from in leaky boats!" and "Wait until Hitler comes over here!" The protests continued for several months.[46] Historian Donald Warren, using information from the FBI and German government archives, has documented that Coughlin received indirect funding from Nazi Germany during this period.[47]

Dapper_Swindler posted:Didn’t Coughlin make some weird jump to being sorta lefty to being a screaming facist much like larouch? Coughlin was very anti-semitic (railing against 'Jewish bankers' from the left) and was being secretly funded by the Nazis. He was always an authoritarian demagogue, just one with socialist leanings. A national socialist, to coin a phrase.

DC Murderverse posted:jimmy carter, easily the best man to ever be president, whatever that means to you: Nah, go watch the CNN documentary series on the modern presidents and Carter's episode. He wasn't bad but he wasn't exactly good either--he had no idea how to work with Congress to get things passed, and that torpedoed his chances of a second term. The hostage crisis was a complete mess under his leadership. IIRC he went through a few complete reboots of his cabinet too in attempts to get things under control. He was a good peanut farmer and nuke boat engineer, but a good president? The best you can say is he wasn't terrible.
