But...olives stuffed with WHAT? Pimento is the obvious if disgusting answer, but the tone of the original suggests some, arguably delicious alternative--some secret stuffing that would redeem the whole wretched mess.
I hate recipes like this. Not ones with mysterious ingredients; I'm used to those from my Southern (on one side) / New England (the other side, the one that couldn't cook) handed down in childhood. No, I hate recipes like THIS: ones signed "Mrs. Rush H. Limbaugh, Sr."
I'm not a big fan of Jesus, but I'm sure he wouldn't have been on board with harassing border crossers. A bit too close to his own experience, that is.
The Trump family tradition says committing crimes in public, and telling everyone you're committing them, assures you will never be accountable for them . . .
Unusual Machines also said Trump Jr, the oldest son of the president-elect, was among its investors. A filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission listed Trump Jr as the second-biggest shareholder.
In a press release that described Trump Jr as “a globally recognized business leader” and “best-selling author”, Evans said he would “bring a wealth of experience”.
The Amish farmstand where we get our eggs raised the price for a dozen from $3.50 to $3.75. I guess they figured if they voted for Trump they should reap the rewards.
I have been thinking about this today. Smithfield Packing Company:
Founded in 1936 as the Smithfield Packing Company by Joseph W. Luter and his son, the company is the largest pig and pork producer in the world. In addition to owning over 500 farms in the US, Smithfield contracts with another 2,000 independent farms around the country to raise Smithfield's pigs. (Wikipedia)
Smithfield has been owned by a Chinese company since 2013.
The company is one of the largest environmental polluters in the country - carbon emission, groundwater contamination, you name it. And, the damage is largely to poor communities (of course).
BTW, the company exports a lot of its goods so it is doing what the US has done for decades, in reverse - exploit cheap labor and the environment to send its goods abroad for sale.
Cheap labor? The company employs mostly immigrant labor (legally through visas and illegally) and has been cited for child labor violations on numerous occasions. Given the department of labor's failures to identify and prosecute companies that use child labor, the practice is probably widespread.
So, is Trump going to deport the labor that supports this company?
“Evil preaches tolerance until it is dominant, then it tries to silence good”.
The trouble is that quote can be used against us. The right insists we're the "evil" preaching tolerance trying to silence the "good," i.e. Trump-voting, Murica-loving, White, male, Christian, "Patriots."
Evil will always say that it is the good. It's only in cartoons that you have the wicked in black suits with black top hats, a moustache to twirl, and a monocle.
Speak no more about dead Rush Limpbow.
He is Satan's problem now.

Am I bad because the first thing I visualized when I read this was demons force feeding this vile concoction to Rush 24/7/365?
Mrs. Rush H. Limbaugh, Sr. is a monster. A bona fide monster.
I'm surprised her jello recipe didn't include canned clams.
First, Crisco doesn't come in a jar.
I grew up on chicken fried in Crisco. I will sign an affidavit under oath to it's goodness. See you in court.
Rush Limbaugh Has Jello, Stuffed Olives, And Miracle Whip In It
My Jello says no pineapples...
My non-comment is #667
Limbaugh was the source of all evil. Without him there would be no Trump nor idiotic wingers,
He's still dead, right?
Yep, and the piss is still seeping into his grave.
We hope Has anyone decapitated him and driven a stake through his heart just to be on the safe side.

The job of Border Patrol is getting tougher, and they're bringing in more agents to serve as chaplains to help
-----
Please feel sorry for them.
There is nothing, absolutely nothing, even of half as much worth as the conservative's belief that they are always being treated unfairly.
Wow. Lay people nominated by their churches attend a 2.5 week academy, and then they are, poof, Border Patrol chaplains.
Forgive me if I have little, er, faith that this will help anyone, especially migrants.
Bet you $2 these are White Christian nationalist "church"es

I wrote this long response about how White people weaponize that feeling and Substack ate it

The true sin of Sodom and Gomorrah was inhospitality to strangers. You know, like "Christian" nationalists practice.
`Wingers would have hated the real Jesus. Would have called him a communist! All that disdain for material wealth and wealth sharing. Forget about it1
The Bible is full of bits about treating foreigners in your land as guests.
It also has literally hundreds of passages advising aid and comfort to the poor, and not a single one of them demands a credit check first.
This made me LOL. 🤣😂😁🤣
US drone firm appoints Trump Jr as adviser and sees stock price soar
It makes me sick, but you have a better attitude.
The Trump family tradition says committing crimes in public, and telling everyone you're committing them, assures you will never be accountable for them . . .
Hasn't been wrong so far . . .
Nope, especially if you just flood the zone with crimes. Then people say, you CANT be guilty of all that crimeing!
Every day, the Trump failsons become more Qusay and Uday in public.
And look how they turned out.
And their dad.
And HIS dad.

Have these people spoken to DJTJ? Let alone seen him? Seriously I would not invest in a company that would describe any Trump that way.
😖😖😖
“a globally recognized business leader” and “best-selling author” – words that now have no meaning.
"So WE'RE gonna USE these things to FIND BLOW, right?"
"...look for drug..."
"RIGHT!? CAN I GET A HIGH FREAKIN' FIVE?!"

Are feed costs projected to go up? They may be frontloading funds.
That's hardly an excuse if they voted for Trump Kakistocracy and their "plan" is to pass the costs on to consumers
I imagine relying on God to protect their chickens against bird flu, and refusing government insurance and aid when it does, raises their costs a bit.
It's Thanksgiving, so these egg yolks needs some thyme.

Not if the CEOs who employ undocumented immigrants PAY him
If they go along with the shakedown Donald and his henchmen grant them an exemption
Except, it is a Chinese company. Puts him kind of a bind, doesn't it?
What a hot mess this will be
Why is my reply box to you pink?
New substack thing I guess. Very annoying.
Yes.
I don’t like it.
Does everyone hate it or just the two of us?
I guess we have to wait to find out!
Also today, by sheer coincidence, https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/nov/27/an-emotional-wrench-smithfield-traders-absorb-news-that-market-is-to-close.
Yes, but we'll still never hold the executives accountable.
Well, at the very least he'll get rid of those pesky inspections.
That will be good for competition. Consumers will have a choice between bird flu and swine flu.
“Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil” is a quote by Thomas Mann
Another quote related to tolerance is from Charles J. Chaput, who said, “Evil preaches tolerance until it is dominant, then it tries to silence good”.
That Karl Popper thing about tolerating intolerance comes to mind.
“Evil preaches tolerance until it is dominant, then it tries to silence good”.

Still easy to identify it by hats.
Can’t wait for Trump’s tariffs to make prices skyrocket.
Media: 60% of Americans approve of his handling of the economy!
This is why you should turn it off. He isn’t even in office yet and they’re asking this stupid fucking question.
I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take this anymore!!
What handling? He's talked about groping, but he's still a jerbless fuck.
"Republican-owned media"
FTFY.
Considering when he's been nowhere near the economy since 2022.
And has failed at every business enterprise he's tried. Treason is the only money-maker he's ever stumbled upon.
Funny how that coincides with the economic recovery.
