Geraldo Rivera: The Voice of Reason
Hey, you takes ’em where you can get ’em:
’50-year-old Palestinians… have never lived in freedom their whole lives,’ Rivera says on Fox, defending Tlaib by Phil Weiss.
It is absolutely outrageous that two sitting members of the Congress of the United States of America, a country that gives Israel over $3 billion a year in aid, were denied entry into the country. I am shocked that the ambassador did not mention 52 years of Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories. These are people who are being denied their human rights. They can’t freely travel. The fact that the congresswoman from Detroit could not go and visit her grandmother– I just think that if it were not Israel and it was not the Jews, if it was any other country that took this action, we would all be outraged.
… Why is it a stunt– a woman wants to see her grandmother in an occupied country? It’s a stunt! There are 50-year old Palestinians that have never lived in freedom their whole lives… I have friends on the West Bank, I see that they cannot travel freely. They can’t even bring their relatives in when they get married. This is an occupied country.
I know, I know, what a horrible anti-Semite he must be. Except, “Rivera called himself ‘a Jewish American and a fervent Zionist,’ said he was comforted by Trump’s support for Israel, and showed off his Star of David tattoo.”
Maybe the thing is that he knows the first thing about it and cares at all about truth and fairness. Or something.
President an Insane Lunatic

Deputy Faked Being Shot by Sniper
Cops lie all the time. Because they’re criminals.
Also:
The [apartment] building, which overlooks the sheriff’s station parking lot and is used by a nonprofit organization to house people with mental illness, is a safety hazard, [Lancaster Mayor R. Rex Parris] said. He said he expected the building’s landlord would “work with us” either to install bulletproof windows that could not open or to erect a barrier blocking the view of the station.
Jesus Christ, these people.
Hong Kong Protestors Might Not Be Smart
We know the CIA is helping the protesters. One. We know China is amassing an army to send into Hong Kong (which will change everything for Hong Kong), and we know what China is willing to do to protesters with tanks. Two. Hong Kong’s protesters have access to technology, and are connected to global finance in a way that they can very effectively leverage soft resistance for soft concessions. Instead, they riot in the streets.
Teddy Gets an Idea and Franklin Loves It
I Think I Just Saved Democracy. You’re Welcome.
My latest hairbrained scheme that just might work. The U.S. Capital used to be in New York City, but became so infested with lobbyists it had to move to Philadelphia, and then again to what is now Washington, D.C. One look at D.C. and obviously we need another move. This is going to keep happening, so how about we have each state take turns running the country each year? This also gives states a balance of power without the Electoral College! Colorado’s turn will legalize weed on a national level, New Hampshire will have a national ban on compulsory auto insurance, and Nevada will legalize everything else. Sure it also means we’ll have to put up with Massachusetts putting cranberries in everything, South Dakota making us build them a city, and then Florida making oranges our national bird, but the things that don’t work out can be quickly overridden by the next state. Who’s with me?!
