Numbers are on the edge of being plausible, but PPP is absolute garbage.

A Holocaust denier is now officially the Republican nominee in a Chicago-area House race after running unopposed in Tuesday's primary. The GOP couldn't find 1 person that they liked better to run against him?!?! Illinois nazis. I hate Illinois nazis.

Are they worse than other nazis?



My favorite part from the article:
In a campaign ad, Wolf smoked marijuana in front of an image of the American flag. That ad ran on Pornhub, among other places, making him the first US politician to advertise on a porn site.

I'm confused. Why is it bad that Obama is watching basketball? He's not president anymore, you orange ass.

Well, he was in 2014 when Trump made the tweet. Not that it makes it any less stupid of a tweet.

Saudi Crown Prince bragged that he had Jared Kushner in his pocket

n late October, Jared Kushner made an unannounced trip to Riyadh, catching some intelligence officials off guard. “The two princes are said to have stayed up until nearly 4 a.m. several nights, swapping stories and planning strategy,” the Washington Post’s David Ignatius reported at the time.

What exactly Kushner and the Saudi royal talked about in Riyadh may be known only to them, but after the meeting, Crown Prince Mohammed told confidants that Kushner had discussed the names of Saudis disloyal to the crown prince, according to three sources who have been in contact with members of the Saudi and Emirati royal families since the crackdown. Kushner, through his attorney’s spokesperson, denies having done so.

Tidbits:

1. Trump promised wall is not completely funded in the omnibus, and he has threaten to let the government shut down over it.

2. His quip about seeing Putin soon was a total surprise to asvisors and senior officials alike.
