I dreamt that someone using a Speedy Gonzales-style exaggerated accent recorded an otherwise note-for-note cover of Dire Strait's "Sultans of Swing" and now I keep hearing it that way in my head. We arre zee Sooltans of Sweeeng.

I suspect Ron will suddenly "find the money" once Don asks him to. (and thereby, briefly, become an MMT adherent)
BASH: This is a sitting president suing American taxpayers for $10 billon. Are you comfortable with that?
RON JOHNSON: I don't doubt the federal government deserves to be sued. The problem is we don't have $10 billion.

Area GOP man vehemently opposes 4th Amendment.
BASH: Wouldn't ICE wearing body cameras help with what you're describing?
RON JOHNSON: I don't have a problem with that personally, but that's not what I heard what Democrats were demanding. Their primary demand was judicial warrants, which is completely unacceptable.

We've reach a new level or Orwellianism where allowing "men"* and women equal access to facilties is considered denying women equal access to facilities.
*leaving aside that these "men" are trans women. Even if it were men, how can having a coed facility be denying "equal" access to men and women?

“She came from Slovenia, and married Slovenly. Melania! In theaters Friday.”
I'm only mildly joking when I say that if America were already a fascist state, the theaters would be full coast-to-coast for the opening of MELANIA. Because they'd have to be.

i guess I am going to have to figure out if I really do have Peacock free via my Xfinity internet, since Mixed Doubles Curling starts Feb 4.
Feb 4 is also the 43rd anniversary of my self-coronation as HRE.

Calling the Gestapo “the Gestapo” is causing the Gestapo to act like the Gestapo.
Homan: "I begged for the last two months on TV for the rhetoric to stop. I said in March -- if the rhetoric doesn't stop, there is gonna be bloodshed. And there has been. I wish I wasn't right. I don't want to see anybody die."

George Gervin, asked about how he'd do in today's NBA, basically said:
1. He'd score 0 points because current players are crazy athletic.
2. Essentially laughed off the question with "I had my time to shine a long tome ago, give the current players the spotlight."
Love you, Iceman.

If any journalists are interested in speaking to my friend Rory, let me know. He has a truly incredible story -- a conscientious objector, he walked across the United States for the Pat Tillman Foundation following two deployments to Afghanistan with the 2nd Army Ranger Battalion.
