2 days agoI just say that Trump is now claiming he was directing operations at Ground Zero on the day.
This is what he was actually doing on the day, calling into a radio show. No mention of being there.

Now you’re just splitting hairs.
Or maybe you’re extremely naïve.
If you look at anyone who has actually made a change in the world, they did it by knowing the rules and knowing how to play the game.
Getting mad at calling Mamdani a smart politician is like getting mad at MLK for choosing Rosa Parks for the bus boycott symbol instead of the first woman who refused to give up her seat.

Imagine 1967. A young science fiction fan was restricted to the occasional ‘Twilight Zone’ rerun on TV and ‘War Of The Worlds’ at the school library. And then…
Keeping people away from the Financial District would have hurt a lot of big companies.
Letting people work the pile without respirators wouldn’t cost them for decades.
Rudy recently got sick and decided to claim ‘9/11 disease’ benefits.
Rudy hasn’t been to one funeral for any of the Ground Zero heroes and rescuers who got sick working the Pit.

I suggest this book to anyone who is laid off or going through any kind of job change.
“Discover What You Are Best At”
It gives you some self tests to find out what your skill set is, and then shows you jobs that use those skills. Nurses and hair stylists both need to have good people skills and be dexterous. Totally different jobs with a similar skill set.
If nothing else, it’ll give you some ideas about what to look for in your next job.
And start the unemployment process right away!
Exactly, you can pick your priorities.
They aren’t in the content business, they are in the gambling business.
At best ‘Spidey,’ will double it’s audience.
A new GOT will give them ten times as many watchers, and generate spin-offs.

Trump is insane and will do what he wants, with no idea or the consequences
One thing I’ve noticed is that movies and TV shows don’t use exact amounts of money anymore.
‘The Rockford Files’ always talked about Jim’s $200.00 a day fee, and characters would say things like ‘Hey, this is a fifty dollar jacket’ or ‘That house must have cost $100,000.’
The $5.00 milkshake was a big plot point in ‘Pulp Fiction.’
Prices are going up so fast that what was unreasonably expensive when the script was written will be the norm by the time the show gets aired.

You wanted a reason why you should ally yourself with others.
I showed you twice that an imperfect ally who can get things done is better than a perfect ally who can’t do anything.
But yes, take the W if it means that much to you.
Congratulations, you won an interwebs argument with a stranger. You’ve done so much for your cause I can’t even imagine it.
You used ‘be’ instead of ‘me’
Were you trying to be funny?
We’ll never know how much she was handled, and what she was doing behind the scenes.
Bella Abzug and Shirley Chisholm were her ‘allies’ at the time. What could have happened if they’d gone further?
I would never give a CIA asset the benefit of the doubt.
Good bye

I don’t think that word means what you think it means.
And I consider myself extremely mature and thoughtful in not using a meme.
Thanks. Sill me, I should have added the link myself.
She also kept the feminists from actually talking about things like the class struggle.
Was the USSR sleazy and underhanded? Yes. Did the CIA do everything the Soviets did? Also yes.

So, go nuts!
