Queen YLB’s fave senator, the one undergoing his second federal corruption investigation, is in the news yet again today.
Criminal investigation into Sen. Bob Menendez expands with new subpoenas
Follow along here: If this round of subpoenas is unrelated to the investigation that began last Fall but still involves Menendez, it would indicate that a third investigation of this corrupt Democrat POS is beginning.
Queen YLB continues to maintain that, like OJ Simpson, Menendez is innocent.
What an asshole. I bet it’s a Republican. spews:
@1 what happened to the first “investigation”???
I don’t see your “favorite” @1..

Basic truth in advertising.
Whenever anyone votes for any Republican anywhere this is what they are voting for:

Total abortion bans so sweeping that they require the pre-teen, adolescent child victim of incest rape to carry her father’s rape-baby for nine months and deliver it to him, presumably to be raped.
Not theoretical folks. This is an actual scenario the Republicans debated and concluded was the right thing to do.
Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
@4,
Please correct me if I’m wrong, but hasn’t the Shit-lord crybaby posted repeatedly lamenting Lon Horiuchi shooting armed and barricaded illegal weapons dealers engaged in a shootout with federal law enforcement in order to assert their profoundly held belief that “white people” are in all ways entirely superior to all non-white people?
That looks like a tell to me.
Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
I don’t know why timing works the way it does. It’s weird.
But it’s like you are at the movie theater and while buying tickets you think you see a neighbor in the line, but you aren’t sure so you don’t say anything then. Then later while you are grabbing some extra napkins for the popcorn you see them in the concession line and you make brief eye contact but you still don’t say anything, at least not right away because it’s now their turn to order snacks and whatever, and then too much time has passed and somehow saying something now, after waiting, would be “weird” and feel awkward.
So the moment passes and you’ve seen each other and you both know it but you haven’t acknowledged it and now you can’t.
I feel like it’s like this for Republicans and what happened to them on Wednesday night.
I think they waited too long. Now they can’t say anything.
Even our very own trolls have remained pointedly mute about that shit-show. And now they really can’t say anything. It wouldn’t help if they did. And it would be weird.
So they are stuck with it, as it is, and what it means. The ratings were either good or terrible depending on what you compare it to. But the awareness of it, the public conversation about it, and the impact that is will have on the Republican primary electorate is probably profound. The campaigns hoping to challenge Trump for the nomination, and every other Republican who would prefer a different nominee, have now let this moment pass. And with it they pass on the basic notion of challenging his most outrageous lies.
They’ve now conceded this ground to him: “his re-election was stolen”; the Jan 6 sedition conspiracy is “fake”; what happened that day was “a beautiful thing” expressing “an outpouring of love”; the U.S. should abandon Ukraine and Europe to Putin; debt default “would be good”; a president has “the right” to steal anything he wants; “the women lie”; and of course that his presidency was “the greatest success in history”.
Aside from how problematic all these extreme positions are going to be with swing voters the party really, really needs, the even bigger problem is how much this narrows the lane for challengers to Trump. By allowing his outrageous lies to define the terms of debate (a point that will not be lost on Trump) it leaves them with few good avenues for contrasting themselves as alternatives to Trump.
It’s weird that none of them are saying anything. But it really does seem like the kind of weird paralysis of timing I describe above. They all seem to stay silent at first, apparently waiting to see what happens. And then too much time has passed and it’s too late.
Whatever explains this silence, let’s just be clear about it one more time: this is a choice Republicans are making here. A cowardly one, for sure. But a choice just the same. Let him go. Let him say whatever. But he isn’t going away. And ignoring him only empowers him and his lies and the hold they have and will continue to have over Republicans. They are choosing to do this to themselves.

According to the Kaiser Family Foundation in 2022 Texas was 47th in the nation for per capita Health Care Spending.
More people employed and higher health care insurance paid by the employed means less money has to be spent by the government.
42 Counties without any sort of Pediatric ICU seems like a lot.
Four of the 10 largest childrens’ hospitals in the US are in Texas. Including #1 and #3.
Dallas and Fort Worth are in “north Texas”.
And then there is the proximity of Oklahoma pediatric ICU sites to counties in north Texas.
Your spew was incredibly weak.
Vapid "I spread propaganda by not linking to things" Troll spews:
it shows compassion and empathy and a desire to not have these kinds of things happen.
Worth noting this is the first Migrant Child death during the Biden administration. 2019 alone saw 5. Carlos Gregorio Hernandez Vasquez died in may 2019 (Pre Covid)
And HHS didn’t have really much to say about that because a dead brown kid wasn’t seen as a problem or an issue just a few years ago.

Vicious Troll spews:
Let’s go a little further with @ 8, shall we?
42 Counties without any sort of Pediatric ICU seems like a lot.
There are 254 counties in the state of Texas. More than half of them have fewer than 20,000 residents. Nearly 80% of them have fewer than 100,000 residents.
There is an incredible amount of expense and expertise in a pediatric ICU. This requires a certain critical mass of residents to keep it sufficiently busy that it can cover part of the expense.
Amarillo is in way-north Texas. It’s a shorter trip from Amarillo to Oklahoma City or to Albuquerque than it is from Amarillo to Dallas/Fort Worth. I suspect that the hospitals in small counties in north Texas are aware of this.
Excellent Work VT spews:
Houston is not North Texas
Dallas is NOT North East Texas.
Northeast Texas is a known geographic area that does not include Dallas mostly because Dallas considers itself a Thriving Desirable Metropolis whereas North East Texas is largely rural and poor. Folks from Dallas don’t take the Suburban east on I-30 past Lake Hubbard. Only the poors go there. Fort Worth if you bother to pull out a map is WEST of Dallas.
Also, bragging that insurance in TEXAS is more expensive than in other parts of the country is not the flex you think it is.
Why didn’t you want to link again?
If only there was some way you could provide a large pool of funding to pay for Hospitals and Healthcare so that individual families could catch a break on their out of pocket expenses…..

@13
So…in order for our taxes to stay low we intentionally encourage our citizens to avail themselves of the services in neighboring states by making sure it is financially advantageous to do so.
It’s a win/win. We get to have our rural poors get Medical care in Blue New Mexico AND we get to save money on funding hospitals. Any Uncompensated care that takes place in New Mexico, Oklahoma and Louisiana are the responsibility of THEIR Medicaid programs. Can I get a Compassionate Conservative AMEN!
Bragging about NOT providing basic human needs for families is a solid take, dumbfuck.

I’m sure this is all Chris Licht’s doing. Elijah flagged the changes at CNN some time ago. Apart from shrinking the news staff (and it shows; CNN is a much less meaty news source now), Licht promised to make CNN “less political.” What that actually means is more rightwing and Trump-friendly, as we saw Wednesday night.

CNN is turning to greed. The sweet sweet advertising money is in promoting fear to the conservatives and olds.

Republican voters are responsible for Trump.
Whatever else may have happened, CNN improved their weeknight audience by more than 600%. Millions of television viewers, who previously had never heard the name Kaitlin Collins, are now talking about her at backyard barbecue gatherings.
You should not expect a giant company like Warner to even give a shit if any of that is good or bad for democracy or even journalism. That isn’t the business they are in.
Stop watching. But more importantly, stop giving a fuck. Stop caring whether/if television is a wasteland. Making this about CNN serves Trump.
Trump announced a nationwide ban on abortion, called rape victims liars, announced pardons for all the sedition rioters, urged handing Ukraine to Putin, and recommended bankrupting the US Treasury.
