    Success after success after success! Watch The Great Man work!

      Hysterical! CNN stuck with Stormy Daniels’ lawyer instead of covering the hostage story!

    • Noway2016

      So, will you watch Trump live at 2 am or just DVR it?

    • Benevolus

      That’s good of him, since two of them were detained last year likely because Trump was harassing N.K. at the time, and presumably just for this moment, so N.K. can look good ahead of any possible negotiations to come. The third guy may actually be a spy, or maybe a Christian (frowned upon in N.K.), or both.
      One wonders what N.K. got in return.

    Imitation, even lame imitation, I guess, is the sincerest form of flattery!

  4. Noway2016

    So, who’s the favorite, Kamala, Biden or Warren for the Dems in 2020?

  5. Noway2016

    Or sending them billions on pallets for some payoff!

    • Benevolus

      It. Was. Their. Own. Money.

      • Noway2016

        Sure! The Iranians had pallets of cash sitting in some warehouse in 1979!! Lol!!!

        • Noway2016

          Yes. In account. Not in cash form. The pallets were a separate payoff by Lurch anf Obama!

        • Benevolus

          What are the Iranians going to do with more pallets?
          I just cut up a bunch of pallets with my chainsaw. If I had known they were worth enough to pay off somebody I would have saved them.

          Seriously though, are you saying the money is still in the US bank?

        • Noway2016

          No. They got their old bank account cash back. Plus thr pallets of bribe cash.

    Little girl attacked by MAN in women’s restroom! Who, I say, who could have predicted that?!?!?!?!?! PC crap out of control!!
    https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cbs46.com/story/38145424/police-child-attacked-in-womens-restroom-at-town-center-mall

    • Noway2016

      Why don’t you head to the lockup, Sniv, and offer your legal services, pro-bono, of course, to the piece of shit who held the knife against the girl’s throat? After all, he could have just been feeling like a girl yesterday. People said this would make it eadier for molesters to emter a ladies room unchallenged and damned if they weren’t right!

      • Noway2016

        Andrew. Please go show this response to your wife and any other female family members, too. Show them your PC mindset in defending a knife weilding man, who had entered a woman’s restroon unchallenged and put that knife against the throat of an 11 year old little girl. Get back to all of the people who read this blog with their prideful response.

      • Ellynn

        Had a high school classmate followed in to a women’s restroom and killed right before the Holidays. By a women.

        The idea that a restroom can keep any one from being harmed is as silly as thinking a person in any type of confined dead-end space with ready made hiding spaces would be safe.

      Was at Tech the same time as Smith and Carly and they’ve done a stellar job with Southbound. Always try to support it when I see it anywhere on draft.

      Totally scientific Georgia Beer Rankings:
      1. Scofflaw
      2. Creature Comforts
      3. Wild Heaven
      4. Terrapin (Wake n Bake is the GOAT)
      5. Southbound

      Sweetwater doesn’t need the ranking cause they’re ubiquitous and serve as our Georgia beer ambassadors/educators but shout-out nonetheless. If it weren’t for them, you wouldn’t have CC or Southbound. Is it 5 o’clock yet?

      • Jack Fitz

        Wake n Bake is always at Hop City so I inevitably buy it and have it in the beer fridge. The best.

    • Benevolus

      I’m no beer connoisseur but one of my favorite things to do on the whole planet is a Tybee Island Blonde (Coastal Empire Brewery) with the fried shrimp and hush puppies at Gerald’s Pig and Shrimp on Tybee.
      38 more days and I’ll be doing it again… mmmm.

    Besides giving China complete access to Iran (China doesn’t use the US banking Systems for sanctions to make a dent in them), being able to legally take away Frances’s Total Oil’s $20 Billion investment in Iran’s oilfields, controlling most of the old TT trading grounds, stopping American car imports at ports of entry, cancelling their US soy bean orders, they still have the BRI and a national GD of over 6%.

    Good guns with guys.

    It’s what you’d expect from an admitted liar found guilty of accepting an illegal gratuity, aiding and abetting in the obstruction of a congressional inquiry, and ordering the destruction of documents.

    Perfect choice for the NRA, and a fitting Trump supporter.
