Cory Booker and Rosario Dawson are dating apparently. If anyone needs to update their rankings please feel free to do so.

Here's some stuff about Beto, actually a lot of stuff:

Teams lie, sometimes for good reasons, sometimes for bad. They do it to get an advantage while they look at the trade market or just because they can

According to wikipedia, she supported Jill Stein in 2016, so no thanks. But maybe it's a way for people to stop talking about how Booker is in the pocket of big pharma and wall street? Regardless, Booker sinks a little further in my estimation. (Is that fair? Probably not.)

turned on the radio in a loaner car and none of the presets were set, so it was on CSPAN radio. That should have sucked bad, but it was the hearing about the census question. I only caught two dems, but Wilbur Ross was playing forgetful old man for them. 'so many questions', 'it confusing'. They should ask from his resignation based on demonstrated incompetency.

Does Beto own another shirt? He had a sweater on today, but still had the blue shirt on underneath.

You also need to remove from your life the day-to-day problems that absorb most people for meaningful parts of their day. “You’ll see I wear only gray or blue suits,” [Obama] said. “I’m trying to pare down decisions. I don’t want to make decisions about what I’m eating or wearing. Because I have too many other decisions to make.” He mentioned research that shows the simple act of making decisions degrades one’s ability to make further decisions.


Connect the dots

12 Republicans voted to block the emergency declaration. Wonder if they can get to enough to block the veto.

It was a surprise.

Huh

The house voted unanimously to publicly release the Mueller report.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
At 1st I thought of saying, “Imagine being told your house of faith isn’t safe anymore.”

But I couldn’t say “imagine.”

Because of Charleston.
Pittsburgh.
Sutherland Springs.

What good are your thoughts & prayers when they don’t even keep the pews safe?

I expect this will be deleted with an explanation of what she "was really trying to say" by the time I wake up, but this is quite poor.

I hope there is a tweet of sorrow to have New Zealand join the mass shooting club.

Was checking cable news to see some stuff about New Zealand. Checked Fox and they were interviewing the lawyer of the MAGA kid who was "victimized" in DC by the Indian man.

Glad you’re focused on the important things.
On a scale of 1 to Chris Brown, how pissed is he?

What's wrong with it?

Are you pissed because she included Pittsburgh? Jews are people too, you know.




(I'm am not serious at all about you being pissed that Pitt was included. I don't think hat you hate Jews. I'm just being dark and inappropriate as my sense of humor dictates.)

I am clearly no AOC fan but I am hoping JH can fill us in on what is so "poor" about what she wrote because I am missing it.


EDIT - Is that the issue with it, JUB?
