Lol turns out it wasn't legal and the judge cited these exact words.

SCOTUS will overturn it of course, corrupt bastards.

Didn't go to the Mall but stayed closer to home. Robust turnout in NoVA.

We could have used you out there Jim. Kind of disappointing to hear you didn't make it. Will you be attending the season opener at PIF's house?

[payitforward]

....Will you be attending the season opener at PIF's house?

Sadly, we got flooded out of our National Park Seminary condo some months ago when an idiotic mistake was made while installing a new AC/heatpump; we have been in a furnished 1-bedroom apt in Bethesda since June & don't expect to be home until mid-November .

Otherwise, I'd happily host a meet-up in one of the many great public spaces at NPS -- like, for example, this one: https://nationalparkseminaryapts.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2016/01/nps_afterballroom2-1.jpg

Maybe next year!

On you, this year bud -- look forward to meeting your wife & kids! If she's not Persian, maybe your mom can make the food? Tho, come to think of it, you do brag on your own cooking every once in a while.....

I'd love to attend a meetup. I'd host but my TV, as
per a recent post, is not compatible with MSN app
(I have an LG OLED TV. Great pix). But I am planning
to remedy being stuck in Limbo. Stay tuned.

Mehdi Hassan with the quote of the day pointing
out 2 of Golfy's wives were immigrants, saying it
demonstrates immigrants will take jobs Americans
won't do.

It's appropriate that Trump's response to the No King's protests was to post a video of him crapping himself

I'd say you have to settle for meeting my girlfriend, but she definitely doesn't know that I have 12,000 posts on a wizards forum

I wouldn't argue with this guy.

[dobrojim]

Really easy to understand explanation of the Bolton case as understood by George Conway
in which he doesn't pretend to understand everything but is open about what he does/n't know.

If you don't get the meta context here, TRUMP IS LITERALLY TEARING DOWN THE WHITE HOUSE

Most pro-crime president in US history no matter how
hard some folks work to remain unsure about it. List
of GOP representatives pardoned or sentences commuted
by Don The Con (would be con artist or convict).

It's not hard to imagine them all covering their ears
and stomping their feet and invoking Christ.

Yooooo, this is crazy !

The grift never stops.

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/21/us/politics/trump-justice-department-compensation.html

President Trump is demanding that the Justice Department pay him about $230 million in compensation for the federal investigations into him, according to people familiar with the matter, who added that any settlement might ultimately be approved by senior department officials who defended him or those in his orbit.
...
Asked about the issue at the White House after this article published, the president said, “I was damaged very greatly and any money I would get, I would give to charity.”

He added, “I’m the one that makes the decision and that decision would have to go across my desk and it’s awfully strange to make a decision where I’m paying myself.”

[dobrojim]

^ crazy and is unlikely to help his polling.

[Zonkerbl]

Only a few dozen weeks since "the president will demolish the entire east wing of the white house and replace it with an illegal ballroom paid for by outright bribes extracted from big companies and billionaires" would have made you sound like a lunatic

[dobrojim]

Who voted for this?
