Ebola Again
It hasn’t really changed much. About 2 to 21 days after you’re exposed you basically decompose into a puddle of vomit, diarrhea, and goo from internal and external bleeding following fever, sore throat, muscular pain, rash, and headaches.

Socialist Cat Fight!
Because that’s just what you want to hear about during CPac. First of all Socialism is not about Modern Monetary Theory and MMT is not about Socialism. Socialism is about how you spend State Resources and MMT is about what State Resources are. Unlimited except by your imagination incidentally, the same as any fiat money …

Eli Whitney And The Cotton Gin
Look, it’s not like the South didn’t always have Agricultural Slavery because they always did, originally in the Tobacco, Indigo, and Sugar Cane Trade. It’s equally useless to pretend that despite some exceptions the burden of this labor fell overwhelmingly on Kidnapped Black Africans and later by breeding their descendants like cattle. It is what …

Unidicted Co-conspirator Bottomless Pinocchio
I am jaded and cynical. He’s guilty, guilty, guilty you Morans and pretending that he isn’t is to live in the opiod orange haze that envelopes him. Pretty Poppies. Sooo tired Toto.

Bridgegate
The only things wrong with this is that Chris Christie is not in jail and I don’t think Baroni is being sincere in his regret. He only cares that he got caught.
