Jesus, did he ever do anything that wasn't fucking awful? I fully expect if he apologises to Muslims there will be a follow up article saying "Bloomberg apologised to Muslims for spying on them, why won't he do the same for the women he spied on?"

The Village has been hard wired for Rethuglican scum since the time of Reagan. Once the actual journalists were winnowed out in the wake of Nixon's demise, it's been GOP all the way. Which is why I have my nym.

Wipe them out. All of them.

The Biden crime is a standard crime of the political class: get a relative a sinecure on some board. It's not proper, but corporate boards are anything but proper in this respect. Just look at the career of the deserting coward. Hunter isn't any different from him, or from Billy Carter, or from Michael Reagan. Nothing corrupt beyond being a relative selected for a position because of their name.

I remember Rudy's reign as actually promoting acts of terror: Abner Louima and Amadou Diallo weren't aberrations.

Someone in the Ukraine Clown Posse will squeal to save their ass, & my guess is that it'll be Rudy or one of Dolt 45's offspring.
