It's a good interview.

That makes a lot of things clear...

Kamala would have done it in front of diners, and served them.

Kamala being interviewed on Rev Al's show on MSNBC right now.

No, we do not. We have a president who's old, and lacks the energy he once had. But he can still hang on to a train of thought, and speak in full sentences.

Your hero Trumpty cannot do that.

Do you remember Donald Sterling? He was the very rich guy in L.A. who owned the Clippers. Back in 2014 he made a number of embarrassingly racist comments to his mistress. In public. And she happened to be black, as I recall.

Within a few weeks, it was announced that Sterling was suffering from increasingly severe dementia. His wife sold the team. He hasn't been heard from since. He's still alive, at the age of 90, and presumably has either been institutionalized, or has private caregivers.

It boggles the mind that his cult just gives him a pass on his bowel/diaper problem.

It boggles the mind that HE isn't embarrassed. Mortally embarrassed. Many people would, if they found that happening to them, never leave home again.

That might be a good idea.

Donald Trump on Saturday appeared to get the day of the week wrong on multiple occasions, including at his rally.

I have a friend who has Alzheimer's. When it began to get bad, one of the first signs was the difficulty she had with concepts involving time. Oddly--at least to me--calendars no longer made sense to her. She had trouble remembering what day it was. Eventually, what month it was and what season it was.

It looks as if that's where he's headed. Rick Wilson is right: Musk, Peter Theil, and the rest of the Bros are just hoping Donnie will win the election and make it through the Inauguration. Then, after a decent but nonetheless brief interlude, they'll push to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove him from office.

Leaving Vance to do whatever they tell him to do.

So what did you think of Trump's lengthy anecdote about Arnold Palmer's junk? Did you think it was "funny"? Or did you realize it was a sign of the kind if disinhibition that so often accompanies dementia?

Will he be able to get through the last two weeks of the campaign without using the N-word to describe Harris?

That seems unexpected to me, and very positive.

Good job by Bernie! And of course he, and specifically his message about wealth concentrated at the top, has always appealed to some of Trump's base.

That's a beautiful time lapse photo...

This looks very good. Easy to make, and it's the kind of thing you'd enjoy. But it makes more than you'd need, so cut it in half.

White Bean and Ham Soup
This creamy, pureed white bean soup is studded with ham and garnished with paprika-dusted croutons.

Blackened Skillet Pork Chops with Beans and Spinach



Again, you'll want to use only two chops. I think it'd be quite tasty:

Give 'em a try...

So sorry you forget 9/11 -- maybe you can give this guy flying lessons -- 2,996 died on that date -- the "deattoamerican' people danced in the streets

And your hero Trump bragged that now he had the tallest building in lower Manhattan:

That’s because on 11 September, 2001, the future US president called into the TV station WWOR to talk about the day’s tragic events. Then, oddly, he turned his attention to the height of one of his properties, which he falsely claimed was now the tallest building in lower Manhattan.

“Well, it was an amazing phone call,” Mr Trump told WWOR. “I mean, 40 Wall Street actually was the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan. And it was actually – before the World Trade Center – was the tallest. And then when they built the World Trade Center, it became known as the second-tallest, and now it’s the tallest.”

And the Trump of 2001 was what he is today: WRONG:

As multiple fact checks later pointed out, this was not true. The Wall Street building had not been the tallest building in lower Manhattan in the 1970s, when the Twin Towers were constructed, nor was it the tallest in the area after 2001.

He is utterly disgusting. Vulgar and classless.

So many Harris signs here in the south, hardly any trump signs.

That's interesting.

2nd tier breakfast effort, and for some reason this goddamn chop is much tougher than the last much more enjoyed.

Have not more appealing recipes been suggested here? And do get an instant read thermometer. So you'll know what whatever you're making is done. Not overdone.

Yes, they've been doing better. Last season was largely not worth watching.

But... didn't you say the Yankees won the pennant? Edit: Oh never mind: now I get it!!

OHHHHHH!! So it's not over!! That's great!! Thanks!! Maybe I'll even watch some of it...

DAMN!! I didn't watch, but I was rooting for the Mets.

You'll like it It's a good one.

I just got off the phone with someone who's "in the know" that told me that his own people purposefully cut him off. They were afraid of where he was going with his rhetoric.

My God. If so, that is... really something. And if Trumpty hears about it, I wonder what he'll do.

Is it me or does it seem orangedonshittypants's own production crew is now constantly sabotaging his rally's?

I've kind of been wondering about that. There always seems to be some kind of glitch now. And it's upsetting him.

Great SNL cold open! Bret Baier can't be happy. They really took him to pieces.

Don't look up!!

You mean the comet's about to hit is?

Did you know that Pope Francis once worked as a bouncer for a night club in Buenos Aires?

It certainly is.

LOLOL!! Yes, I remember the longer version...

Yes, but that's not all:

This woman from Serious Eats must have studied at Kenji Lopez-Alt's knee. She's done a really brilliant job of turning garlic bread into an unnecessarily complicated recipe:

Easy Weeknight Garlic Bread
A combination of garlic powder and fresh garlic give this buttery, crusty bread a wonderfully intense garlic flavor in under 15 minutes.

That’s hysterical Trumps typical humor

Oh yeah. And if you haven't caught it, when asked how he came to be the "Father of IVF", he said he was "just joking", which is what he always says when asked about the many stupid and/or offensive things he says.

He isn't a funny person. Even when he really IS trying to make a joke.

all that's missing is the little one cursing up a blue streak like I would be.

LOLOL!! That would have been VERY funny!

It seems they just told him what to talk about. He's too dumb to understand anything complicated. But he did get a lot of money from them.

LOLOLOLOL!! But s/he'll probably be great by the age of four.

A CNN reporter is talking about it now. She says they show our intelligence people have been "spying on Israel".

Duh. That is the POINT of spying. For everyone to spy on everyone else. It's no doubt averted a lot of potential major disasters. She adds that they aren't going to discuss exactly what was published, but I'm sure it can easily be found online.

Ahhhh. A warning.

but the information could hardly be considered surprising...

It isn't surprising that Israel is planning an attack. But for Iran to have access to the IDF's specific plans would give them quite an advantage.

Israeli media reports Netanyahu BLOCKED every cease fire deal -- and is continuing to do so.

Why?

Because he's made a SECRET DEAL WITH TRUMP to keep the war going, to help Trump get elected -- per PBS.

Dunno about that, but it could be true in the short term. But in the long term, he wants the hostilities to continue to save himself from being jailed on corruption charges.
