Bernie's cool for making socialism trend again, but if you honestly thought the revolution would be delivered by an 80 year-old man who has spent decades in the political establishment you might be kind of a dumbass.

Im a low level govt employee, i have an office with a door cause the building is like a 60+ year old library archive. It was built to be extremely bomb/tornado/fire resistant so its too expensive to remodel the interior into grey cube farm hell. They got a single interior, non-load-bearing wall taken out 2 years ago and it cost like 80k, lol.

The dispatches from the National Review's traditional Post-Election Cruise back in 2012.
https://nymag.com/news/features/republican-caribbean-cruise-2012-12/

"As Thomas downed the rest of his drink, Duane said the only way out of the current quagmire is a “revolution,” citing the famous Thomas Jefferson line about watering the tree of liberty with blood from “time to time.”

What kind of revolution did he have in mind?

Duane’s eyes crinkled into a big smile. “You ever heard of guns?”

His wife sat up: “How do you like the veal?”

“It’s awful,” Duane growled, poking at it. “I can’t hardly chew it.”"

thinking about that time when SCOTUS torpedoed that ridiculous Texas lawsuit suing other states for their election-handling in 2020.

I used to live in an apartment right next to where he would park his car and I would occasionally see him walk around. He once walked into a bike lane without looking and came thiiiiiis close to getting run over by a cyclist. The left can't be led by someone who doesn't respect bikes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephanie_Grisham

I thought that the trump admin had decided that they didn't want to do press conferences any more because they felt the downsides outweighed the gains. But they actually just hired someone who didn't want to to press conferences, and stuck with it until trump decided to hire kayleigh mcenany because he thought she was hot. Amazing.

quote:

Briefing controversy
Grisham extended to more than a year a period during which there were no formal press briefings, such that there were none during her whole tenure as press secretary.[47][48] However, she appeared on Fox News, Fox Business Network, One America News Network, and the Sinclair Broadcast Group on many occasions during the same period.[49][48][13]

Anderson Cooper 360° devoted two prime-time segments in one week to question whether taxpayers should pay her $183,000 salary,[48] and her hypocrisy.[50] "Miss Grisham has gone from 'we are human beings' to 'they are human scum.' ... It's actually really kind of sad".[51][52][53] Her "unintentionally ironic and deeply hypocritical" social media statements and infrequent televised interviews "appear meant to defend the president but actually point out the president's own failings."[50][54] Margaret Sullivan has commented in the Washington Post that Grisham "may hold the title but she's not doing the job".[49]

Authors Don Winslow and Stephen King pledged to donate $100,000 each to charity if Grisham held a one-hour briefing answering questions from the White House press corps.[49][48] Also, 13 former White House and military press secretaries from three administrations before Trump published a letter calling for the restoration of press briefings.[49][48][55] However, the press briefings never re-started during her tenure.[56]

quote:

Incidents of driving while intoxicated
On January 9, 2013, Grisham was pulled over for speeding in Gilbert, Maricopa County, Arizona. The officer observed Grisham's signs of intoxication, and she failed a field sobriety test. Grisham denied consuming any alcohol, but said she had taken a Xanax 90 minutes earlier and a Zoloft the prior night. A blood test revealed Grisham's blood alcohol content to be .105 percent, which is above the .08 legal limit in Arizona. She also was found to be driving on a suspended license since August 2012 for failure to answer a traffic citation. In August 2014, Grisham accepted a plea bargain agreement that reduced the charge to misdemeanor reckless driving, plus two years of probation.[16][7][61] She returned to court twice for failure to pay the $779 in fines and failure to complete a Mothers Against Drunk Driving program.[16]

Shortly after midnight, December 5, 2015, Grisham was arrested again in Phoenix, Maricopa County, Arizona for driving without her headlights and suspicion of driving under the influence; thus violating her probation.[16] Grisham failed to appear at her court hearing on January 19, 2016,[16] whereupon the judge issued a warrant for her arrest.[61] Afterwards, Grisham pleaded guilty. In July 2016, she was ordered into a treatment program and to pay nearly $1,600 in court costs and fines.[16][7][18][61]
