Pritzker's voters are either too rich to care or too stupid to know about the taxes and effects you mention. People who don't directly pay property taxes (renters, live at homes) have no idea that property taxes are going up. They blame the energy companies when gas prices go up despite the fact that governments (all levels) make more on gas taxes than all the profits of all the providers. Communication fees/taxes and green hoax energy prices are going up due directly to their choices in the election booth yet they are as clueless as they can be. Therefore, Pritzker is wise to spew his filth. Democrat voting everyday people think taxes are paid by The Man and not by them.

Government mandates run amok. In a bid to capitalize on the climate hoax mania the Chinese government mandated, subsidized, and is now reaping one of the biggest industrial catastrophes ever. When physics and consumer demand do not meet your goals make a mandate and everything will work out perfectly. This article by Reuters is a long read for those who tackle it. https://www.reuters.com/investigations/china-is-sending-its-world-beating-auto-industry-into-tailspin-2025-09-17/ Summary: If you make them do it they will make it. Buy you cannot make people want it or buy it at a market price. Then really bad things happen. Like destruction of industries and horrible climate consequences - at least on the local level where these unwanted hunks will rot.

Tonight Kimmel will tell us about the MAGA-ness of the murderer in Dallas who killed a person sitting in a detention van. Dowd will tell us that the victim had to expect it due to his opinions. Many on the left will bemoan the murderer's lack of skill aiming like they did when a man was murdered in Butler, PA, and Trump was wounded.

Babylon Bee delivers again: Unfortunately that article is behind the paywall so I cannot link it here.

Just like abortion is considered health care by the left it seems like assassination is considered by over 50% to be an acceptable debate tactic in dealing with people who annoy you. It is just removing the time limits on abortion. 200th trimester abortion? OK for a leftie if the aborted lump of cells is annoying you by its presence and/or opinions. Further leftie internal conversation: "Assassination is such an ugly term. Stigmatizes the killer. Shall we simply call it Enhanced Reproductive Healthcare? And our insistence on free range eggs still does demonstrate how much more kind (infinitely more kind if we have to put a number on it) we are than lumps of cells with annoying presence and/or opinions." https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/assassination-culture-poll-shows-about-half-of-liberals-believe-killing-trump-musk-justified/ar-AA1CwZDM

Who? The FCC? FCC does not make profit or losses. ABC/Disney made a business decision to de-escalate the situation to avoid backlash from affiliates. Then they made another about how to get through Kimmel’s contract and sponsor’s advertising buys that have already been committed. No first amendment issues involved.

These are great examples of the silliness of a left/right model of the political spectrum. While the Islamists hate America and our freedoms as much as our homegrown lefties they hate us for different reasons and in different ways. But in no way can an Islamist be called "left". And gangs? C'mon. Those are the most apolitical people in the country. I imagine if you were to plot their stances on things they would be all over the map: Anti-tax, anti-regulation, pro death penalty (obviously, they inflict it regularly), anti-family, anti-war on drugs, pro crime, etc. Very tough to place them in a camp. Some smelly French idiot 200 years ago noted that birds of a feather sit together and now everyone is locked into a less than worthless linear, one dimensional mental construct. I find the horseshoe model (introduce by another Frenchman) much more accurate and when you then apply the "who is more violent" concept you find that those who wish to impose their views on others contains almost all of the political violence. Libertarians seldom go around killing people to make a point about now much they want to be left alone - except in self defense or when being raided. Even the horseshoe model would have trouble placing them on the spectrum. If the horseshoe model used "individual freedom" at the top and "coercive government and/or coercive means such as rioting and killing" along the two legs of the horseshoe then it would be more useful. And you would see that all of the killings come from people who think those who disagree with them should be dead. Tyler Robinson and Timothy McVeigh are very very close to each other although both would be aghast to hear that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horseshoe_theory

The most stupefying statement came at the 1:30 point when member of the supreme court states her biggest concern is someone's "view" that the First Amemdment " . . . hamstringing the federal government in significant ways". !!???!!!! WTF civics class and law school did she attend? If her education was subsidized I want my money back. That is EXACTLY what the First Amendment does. "Congress shall make no law . . . " It's right there in the f'ing words!!

Jimmy Kimmel already was advising people on what to do when their main communication venue is cut off. He'll be fine. By the way, Kimmel's stuff on The Man Show was pretty funny. Including the Karl Malone shtick. Dave Chappelle's white face characters are funny. The movie White Chicks is funny. Everyone just STFU about comedy and enjoy it.

All he did was cite facts?!? What a rube! Proves that he is unfit to continue serving the American public. Answering with facts is the worst form of congressional hearing answering technique to make a point about the effectiveness of a federal government department or program. Facts? Sheesh. Patel should have cited his DEI commitment statement and recognized the nearby indian burial ground to be considered at all competent at fighting crime.

Yep. She screwed the pooch on this one. Quite the remarkable unforced error. When the opposition is making him/her/itself look crazy, unhinged, dangerous, etc. the more he talks the best thing to do is shut up and let him. She needs to exercise her right not to speak and shut up.

Oh so very very tolerant they are.

I voted against it. Every time. Yet more on your side voted to keep perpetuating it. 100+ years of democratic rule in Chicago. 18 of 20 largest cities in America run by democratic rule. I guess Jimmy and I could have formed our own private 2 man National Guard unit and offered it to Miriam bowser but I suspect that 3PTTD and all like him would have antifa'd our a**es. Your assertion is rejected.

Whoa. That's an insult I have not heard. I like it. I will begin using it. But it probably will be put off limits soon by your brethren wokesters like all of the good insults - and even just factual descriptions - are. Like Mother, Father, Boy, Girl, Illegal Alien, Retard, Midget, etc.
