Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The new republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

Democrats are back in array!

If you thought you’d already seen people saying the stupidest things possible on the internet, prepare yourselves.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

Come on, man.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

Israel is using food as a weapon of war. Unforgivable.

Every day Vance writes another chapter in the book called “Worst VP Pick Ever”.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

White supremacy is terrorism.

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

The problem people have with Biden’s age is the color of the VPs skin.

It’s easier to kill a dangerous animal than a man who just happens to have different thoughts/values than one’s own.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.

It could be worse. Vance could have said “post-menopausal sows.” Waiting for that audiotape to surface.

Somebody needs to explain to DeSantis that nobody needs to do anything to make him look bad.

    The man who married Putin’s daughter and then made a fortune
    By Jack Stubbs, Andrey Kuzmin, Stephen Grey and Roman Anin

    The story of Kirill Shamalov, the celebration of his wedding to the Russian president’s younger daughter, and the loan from a politically well-connected bank that helped make him a billionaire

    IGORA, Russia – The wedding party dominated a ski resort nestled in the hills about an hour’s drive north of St. Petersburg. No expense was spared and everyone was sworn to secrecy. The happy couple rode in a traditional Russian sleigh drawn by three white horses, said one of the workers who described the scene to Reuters.

    The bride wore a long pearl-tinted wedding dress, the groom wore a dark overcoat, said another person who attended. The newlyweds were Katerina, younger daughter of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Kirill Shamalov, son of an old friend of Putin.

    Their wedding celebrations took place in February 2013, at Igora, a small ski resort that combines beauty and discretion, five people who were there told Reuters. Set amid woodland with a picturesque lake, the resort is co-owned by the family of Yuri Kovalchuk, another old friend of Putin, and a Cyprus company with undisclosed shareholders.

    …………………………………………………………………..

    At the time of the wedding, Kirill – a tall, dark-haired man with rimless glasses – was a rising star of Russian business, but still only 31. His fortunes began to skyrocket soon after his wedding to the president’s daughter, a competitive acrobatic dancer who is now helping to oversee a $1.7 billion expansion of Moscow State University.

    Within 18 months, Kirill acquired a large chunk of shares in a major Russian oil and petrochemical processor called Sibur – a stake now worth an estimated $2.85 billion, based on the value of recent share deals. He also quit his job as a business manager and set up a company to run his personal investments.

    How did such a young businessman go so far, so fast? A Reuters examination of Shamalov’s career shows that in the summer of 2013, months after he married Putin’s daughter, Kirill opened discussions about buying shares in Sibur from one of the president’s wealthiest friends.

    A year later, he was able to borrow more than $1 billion, judging by the published accounts of his investment company. The loan came from a bank headed by another longtime associate of Putin, and where Shamalov’s brother holds a senior position. The money was used to make an investment in Sibur that within months proved highly profitable for Kirill.

    Did I not see pix of Cole animals in Steeler gear some time ago?
    Too hard to find old posts now (coincidence, I think not) so, I’m not going to get any evidence.
    But absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. QED. Case closed. Cole: guilty.

    @Rashi:
    Bixby does look like he’s figuring out how to get even in the most proper manner. I’m thinking peeing on the couch is not quite enough.

    One of our neighbors showed us pictures of their cats in a Christmas sweater. Cats don’t do costumes and it showed.
