When I was a kid I would ask my grandfather why he was doing something and his answer would sometimes be, “It keeps the elephants away”. When I told him that was silly his retort would be “Do you see any elephants?” Noem’s statement is about the same.
A couple of tranya shooters and you’ll be good.
Damn right I did.
They’ve already chosen who gets the money?
Might as well just give her the Medal of Honor while they're at it.
The shooter never entered the building and the doors were locked from the inside.
I pity the flight attendants that have to deal with this crap.
Now report on House Speaker Johnson.
Maybe Duggie should learn how well radar works underwater.
You mean like when a violent mob tries to overturn an election by invading the capitol?
Serious Al Qaeda monkey bar vibe.
Strongly worded letter?
In my state, warrants are used (and generally required) to get into cars.
Is there any data of workplace injuries of union vs non union workers?
Somebody needs to do a cartoon of him as Don Quixote, JD as a little fat Pancho, and a modern windmill.
Overdone?
Stern letter to be written by Jeffries?
Saddamish
Temuesque
Bordello
Did they have tears in their eyes when they told him?
…and inflation is zero.
The formation of NATO was a direct response to Soviet aggression and expansionism.
So they had government computers on an insecure hotel guest public network?
Cream. (lol).
Pixie Styx.
To clarify, I was referring to post CCCP.
They have nobody to blame for their diminished status but themselves.
Which means they had their government computers on an unsecured public network.
The SA loved Germany too.

Who are these factions? I’m curious.
When is the presser about her immigration status that Trump promised? Immigrated on an Einstein visa? About that alleged college degree, too....

The U.S. military has been removing tail numbers from aircraft for some time now. This is nothing new.
“We’ve always been at war with Eurasia”
Dude needs to touch grass.
There aren’t just the costs to fit it out. There’s also costs to “de-mil” the airplane to get all the secret squirrel stuff off before the government gives up the jet. If the Trumps intend to use the jet, it will need a new airworthiness certificate. Who pays for that certification?
“We’ve always been at war with Eastasia.”
This is patently ignorant. When the crew calls for evacuation, get off the damn jet. People die due to delayed evacuations.
There are also secondary effects. If your car needs repair, Japanese parts will become more expensive. This means maintenance becomes more expensive and if insurance funded repairs become more expensive, auto insurance becomes more expensive.
It’s not imposed on Japan. It’s imposed on imported Japanese products upon landing here in the U.S.
Insert ‘benefit managers’ here.
Is vascular dementia a potential effect from this condition?
He is not the owner of Home Depot.
Amazing turn of events. When Michelle Obama tried to encourage healthy eating the Republicans freaked out.
…at Home Depot?
Spotted dick is awesome with some good warm custard.
As we have seen in the report, the switches are available for close examination.
1 second. That about the amount of time it takes to move both switches with one hand sequentially due to the gates inhibiting movement without the switches being pulled over them. Screenshot from the report.
The one second apart activation screams intentional movement of the switches.
After further analysis, the CVR may even catch the sound of the switch movement as they are released after being pulled out to get over the “gate” (my word…I don’t know what its official designation is).
How would the cutoff switches move without human action? Even the sequence of the switches moving sequentially is consistent with a person doing it as one cannot move them both at once with one hand.

Is she advocating biblical punishment?
Billo grasping for relevance.
With no opposable digits, penguins can’t hold cards.
It’s not mounted to the vehicle and if nobody is moving around it will be stable.
Looks to be a sniper rifle, not a machine gun.
This is disgusting.
How many times was he hit?
“Drowning in a flash flood is Freedom Wetness.” - Republicans, probably.
…and of course a selective fire M14 or L1A1 would not be an “assault rifle” as they are not intermediate power cartridge firearms. That also makes the whole definition thing silly by picking at minutia to say what is or is not an assault rifle.
I should say “medium power” not caliber.
It came from the German word “Sturmgewehr” which is what the STG44 of WW2 (medium caliber, selective fire, detachable mag fed) was called. Using that narrow definition, the burst capable (but not full auto) M16/M14 would not be an “assault rifle”.
They have it on line too: blog.ssa.gov/social-secur...
It’s in an SSA blog post. blog.ssa.gov/social-secur...
As has been said in the past, “Hope in one hand, shit in the other and see which one fills up first.
Last I heard, Boeing was to divest itself of all non Boeing work there.
“Modern sporting rifle” is the term that the gun lobby came up with for AK and AR pattern rifles to counter the “assault rifle” moniker.
Internet searches that show people and their possible relatives.
FFS, it used to be part of Boeing!
I went to her FB page and it’s there
Source of that image is here. She refers to her son Wess in a post on her FB page. Internet searches seem to indicate the two are related.
Firefighters said as much on the radio. They said they were drawn in.
“Four score and whatever years ago….”

The truth didn't fit the narrative they were trying to push so the truth had to be suppressed? Sounds about right.
Doesn’t look like a drag queen.
That’s how it’s suppose to work. The fuse plugs in the wheels melt when they get too hot from brake heat, deflating the tires so as to mitigate the possibility of a wheel/tire burst from excessive internal pressure.
…so this happened AFTER arresting day laborers at Home Depot, strawberry pickers, etc?
Blow Reilly still struggling for relevance?
