The killfile feature no longer works properly.  It says "you've chosen to ignore...," and then includes the dreck that I must skip over manually.

I sometimes expect too much from adults. Maybe I'm confused by trolls.

I've been told that it takes all kinds. I too can only marvel in stunned disbelief at the level of stupidity required to hold some of the opinions I see expressed here at times. Yet there they are, often winning elections. So many WTF moments.

I've heard that too often. Not only does it not take all kinds but there are several kinds we can well do without.

Just when you thought this particular deplorable claim was dead - it's baaaack!

Elon Musk is the latest person touting the Pizzagate conspiracy.  If you forgot, Pizzagate was a conspiracy theory that Hilary Clinton operated a pedophile sex / child sacrifice ring in the basement of a pizza place in Washington, DC.  It led deplorable Edgar Maddison to actually go to said pizza place and shoot it up.  (He was a bit deflated when he discovered it didn't have a basement.)

This follows Musk's touting claims that Jewish communities push “hatred against Whites" and also that Paul Pelosi was a criminal/homosexual/using male prostitutes (maybe even all three!) and thus the attack was understandable.

To Bob Iger no less. It's a good thing Disney is woke and probably has characters who can do as Elon is asking.

Damn the Anti Defamation League for making him say that!

I'm sure Brent will be along in a moment to assure us that this was in fact the intended result of another Musk masterstroke.

Musk probably needed to appease his Saudi investors.

Hi folks,

This deplorable is getting his just desserts:  Mr. Bundy’s fleeing and hiding will not deter collection and enforcement of the injunction.

He probably can hide for awhile, but the law has very long arms.

Deplorable George Santos was recently kicked out of Congress by a house that has apparently grown a tiny bit of a spine despite being dominated by grifter-loving republicans.  But Santos will not take this lying down!  No sir!  If they are going to kick him out for the totally-normal level of fraud and embezzlement he displayed, he's going to take other republicans with him.  Specifically his fellow New York area republicans Nicole Malliotakis, Mike Lawler, Nick LaLota and Rob Menendez.   (Rob is from New Jersey but that's practically a suburb of New York.)  He has already started demanding investigations into them from his (non-Congressional) Twitter account.  His charges range from campaign embezzlement to insider trading to misuse of tax money.  And he should know!

Thoughts and prayers.

I was watching a Youtbe pundit this morning talking about this. His summary was:

"Well, I'd normally start looking into these allegations, but...they came from George Santos. So I'll just wait for others to look into them, and wait for their findings."
