Hey Hoyt, One question for you. How do you manage to be first in the comments?

Expand full comment

I organize my comments typically by 9am after reading several hours each morning and am always on my computer between 5am and noon, as soon as Jeff pops up on my email feed I drop paste one or two comments, and then read jeffs column. Then I typically stay another hour or so to chat.👍

There’s an ad on line for a well organized person to help a newly formed organization,they need someone who can spell two syllable words,and be proficient in unarmed robbery. They call themselves the R.N.C. the compensation package is what ever the court awards you 25 years from your sign on date . Interested ?

Just as likely will be the eventual ruination of the successful candidate's career, then years of litigation with prison time without a dime's worth of support from Herr Agolf.

As a bonus, they'll receive sheet music with lyrics and guitar tab to the song, "It won't happen to me... well fuck, it did." as sung by the 1/6 choir prison band, P. Navarro conducting.

So...you write your comments before you read the posts? Hm

Expand full comment

Absolutely ...and another thing, if you read everyone's comments like I do, only a very small portion are related to Jeffs post that day. My comments are well thought out and written to educate, entertain, and create conversation. Jeffs is not a monolithic column, so conversation is where the five hundred or so participants decide where the conversation goes. Each subscriber brings his or her special knowledge and skills to the site. If you go back through Jeffs daily post and read my prepared comments as well as spontaneous replies to others comments you will see that based on community discussion I always do that. I invite you and everyone else on the site to fulfill your own personal goals in your participation in this community. Bottom line, we all want to maintain our democracy and re-elect Joe Biden as President. How each of us decides to go about that is up to each of us as individuals. Cheers.

Chris, your comment made a really cool buzzing sound as it went right over my head.

If it's particular to Rush Limbaugh, I always pictured him, along with Alex Jones, as the type who ate paint chips back in the lead paint days. Their mothers encouraged them to eat the paint chips as it was the only thing that would get them to shut the hell up for once.

The problem is that the voters have defeated Drumph-ism in every election since 2020 ...and it hasn't worked.

Not only are they representing a minority, the MAGAs are apparently incapable of learning any lesson from it, and as proof, the clown is set to be nominated again.

NO WAY JOE BIDEN CAN CATCH UP WITH tRUMP!

For Joe to catch up with trump, he would have to:

• Get rid of the 20 million jobs Biden added

• Crash the stock market, driving it down by a quarter

• Sell out to Putin and cultivate relationships with dictators

• Increase the deficit more than any other president

• Get rid of a woman’s right to choose and ROE

• Launch an assault aimed at killing members of Congress

• Ruin our relationship with NATO

• Lose a billion dollars in one year – An all time record!

• Go bankrupt 6 times

• Ignore a plague that killed over a million Americans

• Sexually assault multiple women and brag about it

Expand full comment

Man, the Uber wealthy and the Uber mouthy do things strangely. Did someone warn Tuckums about the probability of being maimed, scarred, suffering loss of body parts or death? That laser is powerful enough to start forest fires, if Marge is correct. I heard it is the same one from the great movie, Real Genius. Spoilers ahead, but come on, it's from 1985. Val Kilmer stars as Chris Knight, a brilliant but unfocused student at a generic Cal Tech clone, who is having his brilliance exploited by Dr. Jerry Hathaway. Hathaway has a large military contract to build a laser than can kill a single person from space. While Chris Knight seeks a breakthrough, Hathaway is having his house completely renovated, or perhaps it's a new home. He's obviously using the military contract money on his house. Chris's research is stuck at too low a power output. Fearing prison, Hathaway decides to shake things up. Perhaps to help or replace Chris, Doctor Hathaway recruits a brilliant kid, Mitch Taylor, who is working with lasers in high school. Mitch enters Cal Tech and begins to work with Chris Knight. After many hijinks and shenanigans, a breakthrough is achieved. Chris and Mitch then discover Dr. Hathaway's betrayal and exact revenge.

What I don't understand, though, is how Marge believes that George Soros got his hands on a number of these fictional lasers. Perhaps Marge is conflating Real Genius (one of my favorite movies, BTW) with the closing scenes shown after Mel Brooks' History of the World, Part I. The segment portrays Jews in Space, flying in a ship shaped like a Star of David. Given her expressed ideas regarding Christian Nationalism, etc., Marge may just believe that all Jews are the same people. Who knows where she gets her more imaginative ideas?

Sorry - 8 days is the traditional time that the bris milah is held. The mohel performs the circumcision at that time. It can also be within a few weeks of birth.

Yes, it hurts at any age. I had mine as a baby. It hurt so much that I couldn't walk for 8 or 9 months.

We can only hope that all of these excellent points get spelled out front and center. There's a GOP group, Republican Voters Against Trump that has launched a $50 million campaign that will show former Trump voters stating their reasons for not voting for his assholiness in November. There will be more than 100 former Trump voters featured in video testimonials that sounds it could have an impact on keeping the felonious fuckface from winning that much feared, dangerous second term.

Oooh, I like that! I'm going to get one although I don't get solicitors. One of my dogs goes ballistic whenever anyone is remotely near my front door. He gets in the bay window and growls, snarls, slobbers and body-slams himself into the glass. Fortunately it's tempered glass and hasn't broken (yet). He's quite intimidating, he's not a small dog, only the mail-ppl and delivery ppl get close, and they're very quick about it. I once got a "Welcome" sign as a gift and told the giver thanks but I don't want to give ppl the wrong idea. So the witchcraft sign is really good. I'm wishing that karen gets kids pounding on her front door and dashing all day and night long. White kids, that are residents of her gated elite community.

Righr below my "No Soliciting" sign I have what has so far been another very effective sign on my door:

"This household charges $50 per minute to listen to political spiels, sales pitches, fund-raising stories, and religious proselytizing.

This charge is payable in advance!

By knocking on this door or ringing this doorbell, you signal your agreement with the terms above.

HAVE CASH IN HAND!"

I have watched several people walk up to the door, read the sign, and walk away. I printed the sign on plain letter-size paper on my computer's printer for $0.00.

Let’s gather some photos of young women raped and killed by white guys. Then we can talk about crimes against women with this opening question: As a woman would I rather be raped and killed by a migrant or by a white dude with truck balls and guns in his pickup? Oh, definitely by the white dude?! Kinda speechless about the exploitation of the death of this woman. And it makes me sick that he’s written his name on her photo, sorta like pissing all over the fact of her.

Not to mention the fact that any time Trump uses the words "love" or "beautiful," it's an obscenity.

Thank you Jeff -interesting how when there's a mass shooting of school children, MAGA is out in force either screaming that it didn't really happen, or if it did ... DON'T POLITICIZE IT!

And yet, here we are. Any violent death at the hands of another is a tragedy. However the Trumputin/MAGA party has worked diligently to corner the market on hypocrisy. (They've already corned it on lying, corruption -in spite of Menendez' gallant attempts, and vacuous incompetence -hi Marge!)

No American with decent education, who is well-informed, and sane has ever uttered the words: "These are challenging global times. We really need Marjorie Taylor Greene, James Comer, Ron Johnson, Jim Jordan, 'Speedy Josh Hawley' Lauren Boebert, and some religious zealots to lead us into the future."

I live 16 miles from the border in San Diego,the only 'invasion' going on is migrant workers building affordable housing, running businesses,and generally working their asses off to fulfill their American Dream,and undocumented workers paid $7 billion in taxes last year,while GE and Amazon paid ZERO. Meanwhile the Bible-belt Nazi incel basement dwellers are bellowing for Mom to bring them some more Hot Pockets,the keyboard warriors,and right-wing media watchers. The GOP and church have become nothing more than hate groups,success on that though. Unfortunately for all their constant bitching and whining and grievance,DEMS TURNOUT TO VOTE!! And that's what matters,every 2 to 4 years,and sorry,'polls' don't count,voting does. Despite legacy media and the Russians trying not make them not VOTE. Usually only 60% of Americans actually vote,Repubs know this because they've lost 7 of 8 national elections by the popular vote,their only of winning with their unpopular minority opinions is to try and create voter apathy and disgust,and anti-government rage and hate,while billionaires and corporations try to buy politicians and judges,the actual 'deep-state' they're raging about constantly. Rant complete.

I have so many questions about the Lindell video. Besides that fact he's not even glancing at the road while yakking about free slippers, listen to the audio. Mike's car makes race track sounds with all the gear shifting while moving at a consistent speed. Why is the engine so loud in a posh auto? Why is he wearing winter hunting jacket while in the tropics? Why does his sleeve keep becoming transparent?

Ima thinking it's a green screen thing but that begs the question, why the hell does a video pretending to be in a car? Is he trying to avoid another subpoena in Minnesota?

50 years ago in Arkansas there were lots of retarded or mental defectives running around. They were attracted to smart people because they could tell them some lie and they would listen. Having a smart person listen to their lie made them feel smarter than the smart person. Over the years, they have died or got smarter or have been institutionalized.

8 years ago they started popping up all across America and indeed, all over the world. Donald Trump empowered them. The retarded, disturbed, and mental defectives all love Trump because he is just like them.
