Trump had shattered a porcelain plate against the wall as he erupted in anger after Bill Barr told the AP that there was no widespread fraud in the election.

There was a shattered porcelain plate on the floor. The valet had articulated that the president was extremely angry at the Attorney General's AP interview and had thrown his lunch against the wall.

EVERYONE WHO DISAGREES WITH NANCY IS A ILLEGITIMATE EXTREMIST

Nancy Pelosi is trying to elbow Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas out of the picture.

Her Democrats are repeating the line, “The Supreme Court is “Illegitimate.” Why it is suddenly illegitimate is unclear. Their ruling on Roe V. Wade is perfectly logical and understandable. They’re allowing the decision to be made by people residing in the individual states. How is that a bad thing? Power to the people!

The Democrats don’t like this. They’ve become the party of death. Oh sure, Nancy will claim she loves children (as she elbows them away from a photo shoot), but in reality she supports the murder of millions of unborn children. Nancy and Dementia Joe have even talked about creating abortion clinics on Federal land within states with abortion bans. That way the women there can have their babies killed—probably at taxpayer expense.

If you peruse the headlines, you’ll see the Marxist media are focused on attacking Justice Thomas. They all say he is conducting a ‘radical reign’ at the Supreme Court. Never mind the others that voted to overturn Roe V. Wade. The Democrats and corporate media are conducting a high-tech lynching of Thomas. Why? Because he’s black. They can’t have a powerful black man not agreeing with them, so they hurl racist epithets his way. It’s disgraceful, but not surprising. The Democrats were the party of slavery, KKK, and racial bigotry. They currently celebrate and worship a drug-addled thug named George Floyd, but they mercilessly condemn and harass Thomas, a man of distinction, intellect, and great accomplishments.

Pelosi has even accused Clarence Thomas’ wife, Ginni, for being part of the January 6 protest. Only Nancy calls it a ‘coup.’ She wants Thomas to resign because of it. If anyone should resign, it’s Nancy Pelosi. Not only did she and her husband use insider trading to become fabulously rich, she’s also attacking our third branch of government and calling for the impeachment of Thomas. (Is she impeachment happy or what?)

That looks a little “insurrectiony” to me…

The Democrats have become the party of death, lawfare, corruption, and tyranny. They are the real insurrectionists.

Is it fair to say that the Republicans are conservatives that want to go back to 1950, and the Democrats are conservatives that want to go back to 1990?

Throwing a Big Mac on a porcelain plate against the wall is funny and all but him lunging at his Secret Service driver from the backseat of Cadillac One and trying to physically commandeer the car and then trying to strangle a member of the Secret Service before he was retrained and driven back to the White House while screaming and struggling in a fit of combative rage is probably the more important thing to be highlighting here.

Yeah, I'm pretty jaded on the whole 1/6 stuff but no matter the outcome I'll appreciate the laugh I got from imagining Trump pulling the wheel like a little child.

This is the least damning thing about the testimony and documents today, but I think this text from the head of the office of the first lady to Melania Trump in the middle of the riot is almost as funny as the hamburger:

Yeah lowkey the coverup and witness intimidation is a really loving big deal and it shines an interesting light on the recent direction the doj investigation has taken.

And how did trump do in 2020?

Accubitus posted:

I'm not sure I would attribute any outcome of 2020, regardless of framing, to Mueller's investigation. It seems like COVID, for example, was probably a much bigger motivator of outcome. I don't remember any discussion about Mueller at all during 2020; I don't think it was very front-of-mind for people heading into the voting booth.

Mueller report indicted dozens of people. Most people, even on this board, remember it as a nothingburger.

“I think the district attorney, he has the wrong person that he’s investigating,” Mr. Adams said, during an unrelated media availability in Harlem. “To falsely report a crime is a crime. If that video wasn’t there, then this person would have been charged with punching the former mayor.”

Mr. Adams said he was talking to the police commissioner, Keechant Sewell, about whether Mr. Giuliani’s actions themselves constituted a crime.

“When you look at the video, the guy basically walked by and patted him on the back,” Mr. Adams said. “It was clear that he was not punched in the head. It was clear that it didn’t feel like a bullet. It was clear that he wasn’t about to fall to the ground.”

quote:

Washington (CNN)A Democratic super PAC has made multiple false claims about Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert while pushing unproven allegations that the right-wing Colorado congresswoman has had abortions and formerly worked as an escort, all of which Boebert vehemently denies.

American Muckrakers PAC co-founder David Wheeler acknowledged to CNN that the super PAC had been "sloppy" and had published "inaccuracies" on its anti-Boebert website, though he said it remains confident in the "main points of the story." His comments came after CNN reporting found that the super PAC had made at least five false statements about Boebert, along with a series of uncorroborated assertions that Boebert says are false and that CNN could neither immediately confirm nor immediately debunk.

In emails this week and in a Thursday interview, Wheeler conceded that the super PAC was wrong when it insisted a photo of another woman posing on a bed is a photo of Boebert, was wrong when it claimed Boebert initially failed to disclose a campaign contribution from Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, was wrong to suggest Cruz had made big contributions to Boebert's campaign immediately after she started running in her first primary, was wrong about the date of a Boebert vehicle accident, and was wrong when it published a claim that Boebert had an abortion "in the fall of 2004" -- at most six months before she gave birth to a son in March 2005.

Yes, and that's "nearly" an argument in your favor. You can't say something almost happening, but ultimately not, is evidence on your side.

The saddest part is that it was probably a really nice burger that someone who works in the White House Mess had done a really good job of cooking. "Well I know he likes it well done, but that doesn't mean there can't be flavor," the person said as they made the patty, seasoned it, and cooked it with care. Then it was carried upstairs and what happened happened.
