I wonder if anyone on the left will strap on an AR and take a Rittenhouse, I mean a stroll, through the fascist protesters? You know, just to protect property and help the police.

Also. They’re “secret investors”; so it’s just as likely to be more bullshit from Trump.

Also it’s a special purpose acquisition company so it’s already a con.

Sounds like Russian money laundering.

Although these folks are idiots, we can not repeat the mistake of underestimating them.

Hm. What kind of tech startup needs a billion dollars to get off the ground? Usually that kind of money isn’t involved until the founders are setting up to get big rich or are selling out.
They mainly need a building, good pipes, hard contracts to keep them connected, working software and hardware that can scale up, bodies in the shop… Even super fancy office chairs can only suck up so much.
The company will be a sideshow for the stock ponzi machine.

By the way, i’m working on something um… interesting with regards to Dr. Oz. Maybe i’ll have it done by the end of the week and it’ll be in the BBS. I want to give this to the site as a holiday gift. A gift that’s a story about a grifter.

The article implies that the major push behind Nunes’ decision to quit congress is that an independent commission will will be redrawing California’s congressional district lines in a way that doesn’t favor him, but I suspect that there could also be another scandal or two ready to break and he wants to make the switch before that happens.
Nunes is the GOP House member famous for humiliating himself in such ways as attempting to sue a fictional cow.

Honestly I’m a little mixed on this news because the sheer ugliness of the statue probably turned more people away from the idea of white supremacy than it attracted to the cause.

The photos of the downed statue seemed to show that it was actually made of foam, and an old NPR interview with the racist landowner confirmed it:
The attempted vandals who had shot it with bullets in the past could have just sprayed it with acetone-filled super soakers and watched it melt.

It really does look like something someone would put up in mockery, though. But no, the idiots surely love it. You it are correct.

So I’m actually kind of fond of the statue and how it depicts Forrest as a madman who was made by animating a pile of mashed potato, but I think this works out to the best of both worlds. Racists put it up, but instead of making him look good it left us some pictures to mock his legacy for all time, and now it has been taken down, because murderers don’t deserve monuments. A+ outcome all around.
