The first sentence of that article was sufficiently inaccurate as to make not reading the rest of it a quite easy call.

But hell, here's your Tip of the Day: If the person who discovered that 2+2=4 is shown to be lacking in some significant way, you should NOT decide that it DOESN'T equal 4.

That concept is too complicated for Gary to handle. Let's try this first: orange man bad, ok Gary.

Say what you will about the Lincoln Project. This one is spot on:

Lincoln project. People are fed up with weird socialist nonsense. Fortunately your ilk are going to thrown out of office in record numbers. Worst administration in history.

So Steve Schmidt and Rick Wilson are socialists now?

Do you think Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger are also socialists?

Even the hard-core Libs are turning on this clown show...

Sally you're really struggling today. Get your game up kid.

Do American right wingers know they are being manipulated by foreign spy agencies? When they pass around those memes and lies and half truths do they know they come from foreign intelligence agencies and they are being basically traitors for working with those who wish America harm? 

Gary? Joe? Sally? You all aware of this?

Here, spy agencies, probably Chinese and Russian, are trying to get Americans to follow the lead of the right wing Canadian truckers. Who where, no doubt, egged on by Russians and Chinese in disguise. 

Ben Collins@oneunderscore__Scoop, story incoming:Facebook groups tied to American offshoots of Canada’s “Trucker Convoy” are being run by fake accounts tied to content mills from Vietnam, Bangladesh, Romania and several other countries, the company confirmed to NBC News on Friday.

Yes, if you're an old school monarchy that happens to sit on top of a huge oil well, that's not that impressive. But the US energy boom was driven by actual innovations in drilling techniques, not just pure luck.

ok fine but still, most oil and mining regions in the US are not great economic engines. 

texas is an exception - really interesting things going on in that state way from energy. But elsewhere....I mean Wyoming? WV? Alaska? These are backwaters that might not be as backwaterish if they had to come up with better ways to make money. 

I'll go on record saying there is a low probability of Russia invading Ukraine. It's just Putin playing games to cement internal rule, try to split NATO and warn NATO and Ukraine not to get too uppity. 

Putin gets nothing by invading but a guerilla war and crippling sanctions. And a bunch of wheat.

The oligarchs dont' want their foreign bank accounts and yachts taken and russian parents don't want their boys picked off one by one to die in foreign snow. 

and anyway, it's above freezing every day in Ukraine. a war in mud season is a seriously bad idea.

Nearly 60 percent of Americans disapprove of Biden’s job performance: poll

Dillon Davis

Nearly 60 percent of Americans disapprove of President Biden’s job performance as his approval rating sinks even further, according to a new CNN poll released Thursday.

The only thing worse than this fool are the fools who voted for him...

The prime example of someone who managed their natural wealth properly is Norway. Instead of allowing corruption like everyone else, they built up an enormous sovereign wealth fund. Now Norwegians enjoy the highest standard of living in the world. (Pro tip: If you have a kid who wants to get a degree abroad, see if you can get them into a Norwegian university. It's free to all, even foreign students.)

The ironic part is that now Norway kind of feels guilty about all their accumulated wealth through dirty oil. Norway is leading the world in ditching fossil fuels. EV sales are reaching 90% and most of their electricity comes from hydro.

There is no reason that the US could not have built its own sovereign wealth fund. But most Americans believe it's better to have a few super-wealthy people with millions and millions of very poor people.

I hope you are right. But when you mobilize that many troops, it's politically hard to just pull them back. These things have their own inertia.

yeah that's why the West hasn't gone to full mobilization in E Europe. They don't want to start a WW1 scenario where no one has an offramp. They want to give Putin a graceful way to exit without looking weak. Retreating in face of thousands of Nato tanks and troops arrayed against you tends to lead to your scenario, when testosterone and pride get hundreds of thousands killed. 

The Senate’s most vulnerable Democrats are all calling on the Biden administration to do more to address the pain consumers are feeling from the cost of rising goods — and taking steps themselves to show they are in tune with voters’ concerns, whether it’s on the price of gasoline or groceries.

And very few of them say President Joe Biden is doing enough to deal with the fastest pace of inflation in four decades.

I remember a certain president who said we need to cut the tax instead paying down the debt because "it's not government money. It's people's money." So the ideological opposition to the sovereign wealth fund would be fierce from a certain corner.

The 'government crack pipe' story has blown up, but not before RubeMedia made tens of millions of gullible ignoramuses believe it. 

The Free Beacon broke journalism rules to make the claim, essentially fabricating evidence. Then the rubes ate it up.

That means you, Gary and Sally. You ate it up, you gullible fools. 

The path was this:

Free Beacon: Are you handing out 'safe smoking kits?'

Agency: Yes

Free Beacon goes to the interwebz and finds some canadian group that includes glass pipes in 'safe smoking' kits. Free Beacon then claims the US will distribute glass pipes in its 'safe smoking' kits. But no, they won't. 

No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen@NoLieWithBTCThis is Brent Scher, executive editor at the Free Beacon, which started the fake Biden admin “crack pipe” story.He just admitted to @washingtonpost that it was essentially made up: “You are correct that the spokesman did not specifically say pipes in response to our questions.”

You are the fool who keeps on lying, and lying and lying.

This is from the GOVERNMENT dated Dec. 2021. The government can't undo this as much as they want to. Please quit lying Agip. Do you really want to go through life known as a liar? This refers to Safer Smoking Equipment which means CRACK PIPES!

This is from the government and is dated Dec. 21, 2021. It provides "SAFER SMOKING EQUIPMENT." This came out before the public outcry. Again, this came out before the Biden administ. was forced to backtrack.Harm reduction services aim to prevent or minimize adverse outcomes related to substance use, such as fatal and non-fatal overdose and infectious disease transmission. Examples of established harm reduction approaches include naloxone, fentanyl test strips (FTS), safer smoking equipment, and sterile syringes, as well as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and Hepatitis C virus testing. Emerging strategies to make harm reduction services and supplies more accessible include providing them in low/no barrier treatment clinics, placing them in vending machines, and mailing them, among other approaches. Harm reduction policies are also emerging, and include decriminalization of various drugs, police and prosecutor-driven deflection and diversion efforts, and the authorization of safe consumption sites.

do me a favor, rube. 

cut and paste for us where it says the US will hand out free crack pipes. 

Thanks!

Even Joe Manchin knows crack pipes are involved.

WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Senators Roy Blunt (Mo.), Susan Collins (Maine), and Joe Manchin (W.Va.), all of whom serve on the U.S. Senate Committee on Appropriations, sent a letter to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra seeking answers regarding HHS’s recent funding opportunity announcement that could open the door for taxpayer dollars to be used to purchase and distribute drug paraphernalia, such as pipes for using crack cocaine or crystal meth.“On February 7, 2022, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) closed a Notice of Funding Opportunity (No. SP-22-001) for nearly $30 million,” the senators wrote. “The Notice specifically allows grantees to purchase and provide ‘smoking kits/supplies… [and] syringes.’ According to harm reduction organizations Toward the Heart and Interior Health, smoking kits may include ‘glass stem… [and] Meth pipes.’ These organizations state that these supplies are used to ‘smoke crack’ and ‘use crystal meth.’ While we understand some smoking kits may not include this paraphernalia, the SAMHSA Notice of Funding Opportunity does not include specific prohibitions against their inclusion.”
