What the fuck is a Senator going to do in an emergency anyway? If they want one, I'm sure they have grifted enough from the taxpayers to buy one for themselves.

What the fuck is a Senator going to do in an emergency anyway? If they want one, I'm sure they have grifted enough from the taxpayers to buy one for themselves.

Senators can't afford to buy satellite phones, as they only make $174,000/year and that's not enough to live on.

Sincerely,
Paul Ryan



Perhaps if Republicans cut down on the number of cappuccinos they buy they might be able to afford one...

How in the hell does Kissinger make it to 99 with that shape?

Talk about a f-ing anomaly...

How in the hell does Kissinger make it to 99 with that shape?

He didn't merely make it to 99, the man is still making rounds with world leaders, most recently at the Bilderberg conference.

For most who make it to 99, the highlight of their day is eating a cup of pudding, not negotiating geopolitical strategies.

Enjoying your pudding, Wolfman?

President Biden signed the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 into law on Saturday, ending for now the threat of economic calamity from a default on the nation's debt and putting limits on spending for two years.

DoD is taking a two-year cut relative to inflation, that's why all the defense slappies on the Hill are pissing themselves looking for legislative ways to continue showering DoD with cash it doesn't ask for. I.E.---giving it more F-35s than it requested.

Apocalypse Now





CNN — From Maryland to the Canadian capital, a mammoth-size cloud of smoke spewed by Quebec’s wildfires has forced children to stay indoors, grounded flights in New York City and left millions of residents at risk of breathing unhealthy air.

More than 75 million people in the eastern US are under air quality alerts Wednesday due to the smoke, which made iconic skylines disappear behind wafting orange fumes.

The heaviest smoke Wednesday is expected to hit the Northeast through the mid-Atlantic and down to the Carolinas. Smoke conditions in those regions could last through at least Thursday.

As of Wednesday evening, major metro areas such as Philadelphia; Jersey City, New Jersey; and New Haven, Connecticut, had air quality indexes ranging from 200 to 300 – which is considered “very unhealthy,” according to government website AirNow.gov.

New York City had an AQI of 484 at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, which is classified as “hazardous,” Mayor Eric Adams said during a news conference Wednesday. That’s the highest level on record in the city since the 1960s, he said.

Philadelphia issued a “code red” alert Wednesday, warning certain residents should stay indoors...

A section of I-95 in Philadelphia has collapsed after a tanker truck fire


"Today's going to be a long day, and obviously with 95 northbound gone and southbound questionable, it's going to be even
longer than that," OEM director Dominick Mireles said at a news briefing Sunday morning.

Mireles said the city would communicate information about detours and impacts to the community in "the days and weeks that
follow on."

San Francisco dives deeper into the lawless abyss

https://www.wsj.com/articles/hotel-owne ... s-e84c64ef

"San Francisco’s once thriving hotel market is suffering its worst stretch in at least 15 years, pummeled by the same forces that have emptied out the city’s office towers and closed many retail stores."

Anybody with equity there ought to get a plan to get out.

Not to mention the Fecal Avenues.
