Twatwaffle. Someone referred to this guy as a twatwaffle. He is that, in spades.
The NYT is going down the tubes and this piece is further evidence of that. I suppose everyone has a right to their opinion, but everyone does not have a right to have their opinion vomited all over the Opinion page of the Times.
“Timothy Loehmann, the son of a bitch who killed 12-year-old Tamir Rice within seconds of rolling up on him in a public park, got hired to do “police” in West Virginia. He resigned like a day after his hiring became public. This is the third time some shithole’s hired him, and the third time he’s had to quit, once before working a single shift.”
He can try in Haines, Alaska! Haines has a well-deserved reputation for hiring shithole cops and other borough officials with heavy reputational backgrounds _and in full secret knowledge, keeping them on staff_ until public exposure and sustained pressure eventually forces their removal.
He’ll fit right in! At least for a good long while.
Missing front black sky future wheel is the scenario where the local cops are all MAGA and the sheriff, who believes he, not the federal government, is the supreme law of the land, orders his deputies to round up everyone in the county who looks gay/muslim/illegal/liberal/not white.
Then the MAGA governor of a purple state orders the national guard to seize all the ballots and voting machines in order to ensure that the vote counting was “fair,” by which they mean, “Trump won.”
The inevitable legal challenges occur and rocket their way to the Supreme Court before December. The six Leonard Leo theocrats quickly pull a Bush v Gore and declare Trump the winner, his convictions null and void, and while they’re at it, Biden’s 2016 election was illegitimate and therefore, Ketanji Brown-Jackson was never legally a member of the court.
They’ll justify this ruling based on the now solid legal precedent of, “because we can.” They will, however, stop short of Thomas and Alito’s demand that Sotomayor and Kagan be burned at the stake for witchcraft and harlotry. That way, the NTY editorial board can say they were being “reasonable.”
Moses Mike Johnson will do his patriotic duty by ordering the House to confirm that no electoral votes for Biden will be counted. Someone will unfreeze McConnell so he can concur. Republicans in every state Joe Biden won will gather at or near the state Capitol to cast their state’s electoral votes for Trump.
Then, when the votes are counted in January, Trump will become the first president since Washington to receive a unanimous vote in the EC. Democrats will try to object but they will be shouted down and then barred from the proceedings.
Kamala Harris and Joe Biden will be arrested, charged, and convicted of treason by the new AG Kash Patel in a bench trial presided over by Supreme Court nominee Aileen Cannon. They will then be publicly hanged on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.
CNN and the NYT will shake their heads sadly as federal agents drag Lawrence O’Donnel, Rachel Maddow, Chris Hayes, and the rest of the staff of MSNBC in front of the cameras in shackles. “This could have been avoided,” says the NYT editorial page, “if only Biden had dropped out of the race.
"Timothy Loehmann, the son of a bitch who killed 12-year-old Tamir Rice within seconds of rolling up on him in a public park, got hired to do “police” in West Virginia. "
YK just one of the things that's "interesting" about this guy ...?
It's that he actually relocated TO the "police" district where he shot & murdered Tamir Rice because he ALREADY HAD a record of violence on unarmed citizens in ANOTHER location in Ohio.
Oh, hey, wait, AP -- he already LEFT the job in West Virginia??
I'd say something about my little theory-ette that American establishments do their best to keep these thugs in "jobs" where they can both do sanctioned violence and keep resources (that would be MONEY) circulating amongst White people at the literal expense of everyone else
Oh my God, seriously? I normally like Cassidy Steele Dale's analysis. Even when I disagree with them, they're good food for thought. But she really shit the bed when it comes to her post about whether or not to replace Biden with Harris.
I,'m not gonna call it an analysis, because it WASN'T.
Let's boil it down, shall we? There are four possible outcomes, each theoretically possible. One of them is that Democrats unite behind Kamala. Then she wins because reasons. Okay, she's done, it's Miller Time!
Cassidy cites two "reasons." One is that Kamala is a "fighter." WTF does that even mean? Hillary was a fighter, she still lost. Trump fought like hell in 2020, he lost. Being a "fighter" guarantees nothing except that there will be a fight. Somebody is still gonna lose. And I'd like to point out that Joe's a fighter too. Nobody really doubts that, the issue is that too many people think he's a bad fighter. Cassidy didn't get into that, BECAUSE SHE NEVER BOTHERS TO ANALYZE ANY OF THE OTHER POSSIBILITIES. That's my big WTF problem with this dog of a post.
The same can be said about her other "reason," that Democrats have been overperforming polling, so of course Kamala would win. Why that wouldn't also apply to Joe, we don't know, because again, SHE NEVER BOTHERS TO ANALYZE ANYTHING BUT ONE OF HER FOUR POSSIBILITIES.
Cassidy does admit that she dashed that post off. Pro-tip: when your bread and butter is detailed analysis of all defined possibilities, dashing off and posting hurried, half-baked bullshit is a temptation to be resisted. Frankly, Cassidy just squandered a lot of hard-won credibility, IMO.
I got part way through the Tractor Supply story and ran into "Squirrelwood Equine" and thought it was someone's name. Then I saw "Sanctuary" and felt MUCH better. 😵💫
I don't like the media consultancy guy, though; "Bothsides" my ASS - nobody's going to be going into the local Tractor Supply and trashing displays and harassing employees, while the other side DID that with Target. Sounds like only one side has corporations caving in to their demands, and it ain't us.
Not that I'm a fan of mobsters, but we could use a few Meyer Lanskys and Micky Cohens these days.
And Fiorello La Guardias as well.
"La Guardia agreed under certain conditions. The Bundists could not wear their uniforms, sing their songs, display the swastika and Nazi flag, and could not march to beating drums. The Bundists agreed to his terms. La Guardia confined their parades to Yorkville [a German neighborhood in Manhattan] and assigned Jewish and African-American policemen to patrol the route. Thereafter, any Nazi dignitary passing through New York was assured of a mixed Jewish and black bodyguard detail."
I should not have read the Incel Choad's NYT op-ed, but I'm procrastinating at work this morning...
If anyone at the Times had a sense of humor it would have been titled "Tell me you're a straight white guy with a decent income and health care without telling me you're a straight white guy with a decent income and health care."
Man, that don’t-vote horseshit. I Could Not Even. What a pompous little fucker. “Tragically, I, a whole 1/330,000,000th of this country, cannot control it more than that.” Good, fuck you.

The Nu Klux Times has conclusively proven they're the enemies of the people even before coming out against voting/democracy.
That is the sweetest photo up top. Kitty-kat wuv!
