A family member of mine used to go to a bible study group. They said their takeaway was that if this all happened today we would be the Pharisees, and the point is to not be that.
If you say âI donât know Lev Parnasâ out loud, his lawyer will tweet a photo of you with him
Much like Bloody Mary when I was a child, Iâm not brave enough to actually try this.
Well, it is a nice drink when you come in from the cold.
Coffee, sugar, liberal amounts of brown rum, whipped cream on top.
Well. hell, with that going for them, why did they seem to be grumpy all the time? That would make me VERY happy!
Kinda surprises me, given that the countryâs current leader is basically a Nazi.
Always cracks me up about the âculture of victimhoodâ that conservatives talk about.
Fundies love to be victims and martyrs. They love to be persecuted, any way they can claim to be*, because it makes them feel like Jesus. Christian Martyrdom is a pretty central theme in Christianity.
*Except for real religious persecution, like the Jews have had to deal with. The kind that doesnât actually harm them is what they prefer.
So youâre saying you donât allow people around you to say âMerry Christmasâ? Hmmph!
/s, obvs
All holidays matter!
(also /s)
Just read the whole thing. Itâs pretty lulzy
Yeah, but thatâs in the gospel of John, so not like itâs an important section for Christians or anything.

A little bit of an followup to that moment
Grrrr, must I click through to see her colorful remark?
âAre you fucking kidding me?â
Heh.
And thanks!
Monica Lewinsky speaks for us all today.
Alan D quote:
The defendant wants to hide the truth because heâs generally guilty.
From the general to the specific in this caseâŚ
Edit:
From DKos Laura Clawson:
" Alan Dershowitz was one of sex predator Jeffrey Epsteinâs lawyers and also a friend of Epstein. Dershowitz has said that yes, he got a massage at Epsteinâs mansion, but âI kept my underwear on during the massage.â He has been a prominent Trump defender on television.
Ken Starr is obviously most famous from spending the 1990s turning an investigation into a real estate transaction into impeaching Bill Clinton for a sexual relationship. As CNNâs Elie Honig tweeted, âNow House Managers can point across the well and say: âThereâs the same guy who interviewed @MonicaLewinskyâs ex-boyfriends, WH window washers and Kathleen Willeyâs dentist. Now he doesnât want us to hear from Bolton and Mulvaney.ââ
During that time, Trump had some strong feelings about Starr, telling Matt Lauer that âI think Ken Starrâs a lunatic. I really think that Ken Starr is a disaster.â But Starr has been ⌠wait for it ⌠a prominent Trump defender on television.
True story: Starr was also one of sex predator Jeffrey Epsteinâs lawyers. Oh, and he lost his job as president of Baylor University after accusations that he mishandled sexual assault allegations against football players."

This is from Jan 2016 so, not quite trumpian* but expressing the same my dick is bigger than yours US mentality around the worldâŚ
âThe US Embassy in ReykjavĂk is currently preparing its relocation from its current location in downtown ReykjavĂk to a new site by Engjateigur street just east of downtown. But before the move can be completed two crucial things must be taken care of. A tall security fence must be built to ensure security and a giant flagpole erected to ensure the Stars and Stripes.â
*I doubt he even knew what an embassy was at that point in time.
No way⌠he actually said that???
