War Room Lounge v147: Boy oh boy this lounge is spicy tonight , any one have some tums ?

I kinda like Rubio as far as Republicans are concerned.

Seemed like one of the few actually concerned about the 100% confirmed fake new Russian hoax.

If Epstein could somehow be tied to it people would immediately do a 180 and start blaming the Clintons. Kind of like that judge who was a victim of a robbery gone wrong - until Epstein was mentioned and then it was definitely a hit.

But China will be engaging in the same behavior this year so I'm guessing Chinese agents working on US soil will simply be dismissed as Facebook trolls. Just kidding, that will be a national security emergency.

I'll give Rubio credit for being the only GOP Senator that tried to get anything for working families in the Tax bill in the form of an expanded/refundable child tax credit.

It's the definition of crumbs but they tried to deny even the crumbs.

I think I’m going to end up caving and just get a subscription already. That paywall is getting frustrating.

Is this the Cancel Culture I hear so much about?

I didn't face a paywall? Maybe entering via Google does the trick.

Isn't that one of the 47 traitors?

WaPo is definitely a subscription service but you get a couple of free articles a month I believe to entice people to subscribe

Ah.

I regularly empty my cookies. And restarting your router is also a good idea every now and then if you are on Wifi.

Cotton?

Cotton is a pure authoritarian and he's smart.

Trump is horrible but a Cotton presidency would likely be worse as he's competent

I was reckless and hit my limit already for the month. I’m usually selective with what I get from the quota. I guess a VPN might work.

What I was referring to. One of the most atrocious and treacherous acts I have witnessed in politics. The careers of everyone signing that letter should have been over at that point, but Cotton initiated it.

Ugh, I’ve been watching my diet really good for about 2.5 months now..... but I just want to have a damn cheat meal of like ramen and gyoza. Gah

If you actually have been watching your diet (and i don't believe that you have been doing so correctly), you can absolutely have a cheat meal of ramen and gyoza. You could do so after a couple weeks if it's just the one meal, and in fact, if it keeps you from going off the reservation you shouldn't feel guilty about it at all.

Lol that would have been almost every GOP Senator

Not all of them. The exceptions are notable.

Dan Coats, for example. He sure knew why he wanted none of that.

@Prokofievian please share your diet wisdom

Also, @Gregolian there is the infamous Palis workout <Lmaoo>

My lunches consist of baby spinach, mozzarella, some protein (grilled chicken, flank steak, or like grilled ham) and Newman’s Own Oil/Vinegar dressing.

Dinner varies but is usually 50% some kind of vegetable with day a small steak and a little rice

Yikes

I normally would assume his family is as disgusting as him, but IIRC his family all despise him. So RIP, comrade.

No but I know a chocolate giant

He was always one of my favorites. A good topic of analysis in re that era would be on the perceived racial identity of The Rock. Because a guy who looked more conspicuously black or Samoan could never have gained his level of widespread popularity. But he more or less passed as white, at least as a cultural symbol, after his time in that pan African stable.

 

[skysolo]

I was thinking it was because he was white. You know white always have the chance to be good unlike the other races.

They also believe that despite previous felonies for trying to stab a baby, that being high on meth and fentanyl passing counterfeit monies is a step in the right direction and earns you martyrdom because you resisted arrest.

Floyd was killed by a stronger man while trying to fight.
I guess Floyd was good at assaulting pregnant women and unborn babies but couldn't handle an old man with knobby knees.
