The number of abortions in this country has gone up, not down. Take that, Supreme Court and forced birthers.

Pointless from a local politics POV, since nobody who would vote for Bobes in the first place has the mental acuity to understand “vote democratic” -> “good things for me.” However it is always entertaining to get the chance to see her humiliated on a national stage…so it must have been a Wednesday.

Boebert won her last election in our district by a mere 500 votes out of a few hundred thousand votes. There are people in our district who can be reached.

Hell, all we have to do is inspire them to get off their asses and vote. Nearly 60% of the voters in our district voted, which, though record breaking, is pitiful.

There are plenty of people who think "I don't know anything about politics and politicians all seem like selfish dicks anyway, so I will vote for the one with boobies, because I like seeing boobies on TV." But who can be convinced by arguments why one is better than the other.

La Boebert wouldn't be comfortable attending the meeting anyhow, as Joe has a strict rule against public handies at his events.

This, btw, is how you make America great and energy independent.

Ol' Handsome Joe also gave Bobo the business for taking credit for stuff she voted against (which is the one tradition, old-school GOP practice in which Bobo engages on a regular basis).

Pueblo is bibble belt central. They will gladly take the money and then vote GOP. It's their entire raison d'etre.

You're thinking Pueblo neighbor Colorado Springs, home of the Dobson Focus on the Family. I was there last fall and it's a dump of a city. They are cutting the budget because of a shortfall in sales tax right now.

Expand full comment

Yes, Colorado Springs thought taxes are awful and stopped collecting them. Then the street lights started to burn out.

Well then let "the government" fix them!

Yes as it turns out Pueblo County actually voted for Frisch.

Journalists: Is Bidenomics really working if people don’t “feel” like it’s working?

TW: Hey Journalists, when Trump throws you in jail do you think you’ll be writing about how it doesn’t “feel” like you’re in jail?

I will bever forgive NPR for asking Kansans how they felt about Obama and the economy when the Republican governor was pretty openly trying to destroy the state.

This is a normal thing for attorneys to do, right?

"An attorney had been suspended by the Ohio Supreme Court after he defecated into a Pringles can and tossed it into the parking lot of a crime victim advocacy center, The Cincinnati Enquirer reported."

I guess we now know who Trump will appoint as his new Attorney General come 2025.

Were there any Pringles in the can?

The good people at PringlesCorp ought to bring suit against him, too.

Crapping in a Pringles can shows steadiness and good aim. I applaud his feat, but not what he did with it afterward.

Expand full comment

It's a skill. You start with a sock and graduate up to the Pringle's can.
