It is pathetic that John Boehners lawsuit exists Solelyin order to provide deranged loser racists with something to be happy about.
The GOP/MSM have surely hit rock-bottom with this move.
A little while ago sports dude on MSNBC said LeBron’s return will mean between $200mil to 500mil boost to Cleveland’s economy! Jobs, business, the works. Whoa! All that due to one basketball player. Amazing.
Immediate impact is the franchise is worth 100 million more. Also they sold out all their season tickets in 8 hrs yesterday, and the 200 million is a little on the high side, but feasible. The Cleveland Indians baseball stadium is a few blocks walk from the Q where the Cavs play….most of the economic impact will be felt downtown due to more patrons…..i.e more jobs etc.
Sorry LL, missed your plea for the score! This actually could be as bad for Brazil as the semi-final if they carry on playing like this. Luiz is comically awful!
Actually, last season he was in decent form. But after the last two performances? He’ll never play well again. It’s almost as if Jose knew something… HE’S A WITCH!
I have this mental image..
How is an accomplished bartender going to sue an accomplished constitutional lawyer…
Let that sink in for a minute… Can’t help but LMAO!!!
One of the worldβs rarest forests, a section of Miami-Dade Countyβs last intact tracts of endangered pine rockland, is getting a new resident: a Walmart.
About 88 acres of rockland, a globally imperiled habitat containing a menagerie of plants, animals and insects found no place else, was sold this month by the University of Miami to a Palm Beach County developer. To secure permission for the 185,000-square-foot box store, plus an LA Fitness, a Chik-fil-A, a Chiliβs and about 900 apartments, the university and the developer, Ram, agreed to set aside 40 acres for a preserve. Ram also plans to develop another 35 adjacent acres still owned by the school.
But with less than 2 percent of the vast savanna that once covered South Floridaβs spiny ridge remaining, the deal has left environmentalists and biologists scratching their heads.
βYou wonder how things end up being endangered? This is how. This is bad policy and bad enforcement. And shame on UM,β said attorney Dennis Olle, a board member of Tropical Audubon and the North American Butterfly Association, who wrote Floridaβs lead federal wildlife agent Friday demanding an investigation.
The university said in a statement it is committed to protecting the forests β only about 2,900 acres of rockland are left outside Everglades National Park β and helped execute plans for the preserve, but would not respond to questions.
The Children of the Drug Wars
A Refugee Crisis, Not an Immigration Crisis
CRISTIAN OMAR REYES, an 11-year-old sixth grader in the neighborhood of Nueva Suyapa, on the outskirts of Tegucigalpa, tells me he has to get out of Honduras soon β βno matter what.β
In March, his father was robbed and murdered by gangs while working as a security guard protecting a pastry truck. His mother used the life insurance payout to hire a smuggler to take her to Florida. She promised to send for him quickly, but she has not.
Three people he knows were murdered this year. Four others were gunned down on a nearby corner in the span of two weeks at the beginning of this year. A girl his age resisted being robbed of $5. She was clubbed over the head and dragged off by two men who cut a hole in her throat, stuffed her panties in it, and left her body in a ravine across the street from Cristianβs house.
βIβm going this year,β he tells me.
Someone here just couldn’t believe these children were coming to America all by themselves. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT CHILDREN HAVE TO ENDURE THIS??? People have lost their everloving minds. These are children that are supposed to depend on adults to keep them safe and give them the childhood they all deserve. I just shake my head in disbelief. We need to do better.
God help us if we can’t take these children in until their country gets a hold of it’s problems. If anyone hears this story or any like it and say, “send them back” needs to rot in HELL because you don’t have a heart.
U.S. Seen as Biggest Oil Producer After Overtaking Saudi Arabia
The U.S. will remain the worldβs biggest oil producer this year after overtaking Saudi Arabia and Russia as extraction of energy from shale rock spurs the nationβs economic recovery, Bank of America Corp. said.
U.S. production of crude oil, along with liquids separated from natural gas, surpassed all other countries this year with daily output exceeding 11 million barrels in the first quarter, the bank said in a report today. The country became the worldβs largest natural gas producer in 2010. The International Energy Agency said in June that the U.S. was the biggest producer of oil and natural gas liquids.

You did! I think she’s working on tomorrow’s Rise and Shine.
Make that WE since Dudette came through the portal with me.
Just a smidge behind you, j! Go ahead, bask in the sun! You earned it! [unlike some who she who shall not be named] π
Back to my usual poor editing display π
Quite a feat π
You totally did Judith, but only because my former friend LL failed to give me a private heads up. π
Congrats Judith!!!
Dudette and I are doing the happy dance. I’m sure she has the perfect dance music for us, or we can just use LL’s Bruno Mars from earlier.
π
Aha! She ADMITS to collusion among the BTs!
A great read from a renowned constitutional lawyer, Laurence Tribe, and why the doofus Boehner’s lawsuit is a non-starter.
Fact is, Speaker Boehner and his fellow #KOCHSTERS have done material harm to the USA.

You’re welcome. I’ve actually started to get my energy back the past couple of days.

Are you on Twitter, Layla? If so, send it! π
Sorry, not on twitter..maybe someone else can send it..

It’s a more acceptable form of “Black Power”!

OMG Brazil.
What what what? I’m on the ref desk! What happened???
The brutal beatings continue. Poor Brazil.
Oh shit, just saw the score.
Sorry LL, missed your plea for the score! This actually could be as bad for Brazil as the semi-final if they carry on playing like this. Luiz is comically awful!
This game is too sad. My balcony garden needs some attention so out I go.BBL
Brazil’s humiliation continues…
And I see it was David Luiz who gifted the second goal. The sheiks at PSG must be cursing Mourinho right about now.
π But I still can’t believe how often Jose played him last season, bizarre!!
Actually, last season he was in decent form. But after the last two performances? He’ll never play well again. It’s almost as if Jose knew something… HE’S A WITCH!
Ha! Cruel!
Can’t catch a break even though the refs are trying to help.
LOL! Boehner should go back at what he does best….

Maybe Knoller should count Boehner’s drinks? aybe he can not count that high.
I’m watching ‘Rhapsody in Blue’. Interesting to see a 1945 movie that does showcase black performers.
