  1. On to more entertaining posts like my one on Saint Greta. Try to keep up.
  2. https://anglican.ink/2023/03/21/faculty-of-theology-of-the-university-of-helsinki-to-confer-honorary-doctorate-on-greta-thunberg/ Saint Greta gets an honorary doctorate in Theology! Not atmospheric science, not public policy, not environmentalism…but THEOLOGY
  3. That is what happens when one starts to get close to the truth.
  4. I could go on but you wouldn’t be happy until I listed twenty million, I have better things to do
  5. What about this? “I’m done with Ana Kasparian. Fuck you. This jab is needless. NEEDLESS. And yes. When you refer to any person that may have a uterus, including trans men, it’s “people with uterus” F*** her and the main show” https://twitter.com/kevingriff18/status/1638299908720435204?ref_src=twsrc^tfw|twcamp^tweetembed|twterm^1638299908720435204|twgr^|twcon^s1_&ref_url= Or… “No worries, we can just call you asshole from now on, since you’ve chosen to pile on the trans community with a taking point you KNOW is rooted in transphobia. So glad you chose to make this SUPER important point in the midst of historic attacks on trans rights!”
  6. She had the temerity to identify as a woman and not a “birthing person” or “person who menstruates” https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11896453/Left-wing-host-Young-Turks-called-pushing-trans-friendly-language.html
  7. Last time I checked Ro Khanna was identifying as a man He was on the Sunday shows last week talking about the nature of SVB’s large depositors. What is even more telling, when Senator James Lankford (R) of Oklahoma (who also identifies as a man) asked Janet Yellen (who identifies as the Treasury Secretary) if regional banks in Oklahoma would receive the same treatment, she said she could not make that assurance.
  8. Let me break this down (in tiny pieces so Olof can follow) 1. The majority of customers w balances greater than $250k are tech companies (at least according to Ro Khanna the Silicon Valley’s representative) 2. Tech companies overwhelmingly contribute to Democrat coffers (as you guys have been bragging about) 3. By using OPM (other people’s money) the administration the administration broke the rules regarding FDIC deposits and covered the exposure of SVB customers and by extension, it’s donors. 4. If anyone doesn’t think there is at least a partial political motive in this bailout, all I can say is…Bless your heart, Pollyanna, aren’t you just adorable.
  9. SVB’s PAC is not the issue, it is the SVB depositors with accounts greater than $250k, who overwhelmingly donated to the Ds. If they took a haircut, the DNC could have lost millions in donations.
  10. I share the fact that the vast majority of political donations from Silicon Valley go to Democrats and you go off the rails invoking the deep state. Obviously you don’t understand what non sequitur means…here’s some help. non se·qui·tur /ˌnän ˈsekwədər/ noun a conclusion or statement that does not logically follow from the previous argument or statement.
  11. I don’t know why you guys are being so defensive. Biden was just protecting the wallets of his wealthy donors using what Trump referred to as OPM. (Other people’s money). Or to use a term you may feel more comfortable with….he socialized the losses.
  12. Jan 6, Trump, FOX, Jan 6, Trump, FOX, Jan 6, Trump, FOX Rinse and repeat
  13. Here’s a percentage for you… “Ninety-eight percent of all political contributions from people who worked at Internet companies went to Democrats in 2020, according to data from the Center for Responsive Politics.”
  14. 35%? Where did the remaining 65% go? Let me help you… “Ninety-eight percent of all political contributions from people who worked at Internet companies went to Democrats in 2020, according to data from the Center for Responsive Politics. Another estimate from a GovPredict analysis of Federal Election Commission data showed that people living in counties considered to be Silicon Valley gave nearly $200 million to Democrats.”
  15. “Becker and the SVB PAC have donated money to a slew of candidates – mostly Democrats – over the years, including President Joe Biden in his 2020 bid for president and Silicon Valley-based Rep. Ro Khanna.”
  16. Or to save the hide of big Democrat donors. The rules were clear deposit over $250k were not covered. The high dollar depositors should have taken the same haircut the stockholders did.
  17. Meaning ice free Arctic in the summer.
  18. “Harvard's James Anderson was quoted by the gritpost.com article as stating: 'The chance that there will be any permanent ice left in the Arctic after 2022 is essentially zero.” Yet another failed prediction
  19. Anyone who uses the term “trickle down” in a discussion about economics has no credibility.
  20. That’s funny because only the Democrats believe there is such a thing as “trickle down economics” BTW tax revenues went UP during the Trump administration even with his tax cuts and the pandemic. $3.27 trillion when he came in $3.42 trillion when he left. (awaiting a demonstration in linguistic contortions)
  21. From keeping title 42 to reinstating family detention at the border to overriding the will of elected officials in DC to approving a massive drilling project in Alaska (what the environmentalist call a “carbon bomb”), Biden’s policies are looking more Trumpian every day.
  22. That is exactly what the Ds say about Trump’s tax cuts.
  23. This thread within a thread was in response to Wendy when she said “If your son's school is focusing on the downfalls of democracy, and highlighting being a republic instead” did you catch that? democracy INSTEAD of a republic in·stead /inˈsted/ adverb as an alternative or substitute. "Our government is a Republic instead of a Democracy”
