Some sort of psychic potion?  How did he see this coming two years ago? ‘Nightmare!’ See why this possible reason for Eric Holder resigning has people terrified Reality check for those threatening to stay home if their GOP candidate doesn't win: Supreme Court Justice Eric Holder. — jon gabriel (@exjon) February 2, 2012 @exjon Prescient. — Temple Beardshaw (@TBeardshaw) September 26, 2014 @exjon nononononononononono. — Benjamin Green (@BGreenAZ) […]

Saudi Arabia’s Shifting Story About Jamal Khashoggi’s Disappearance | The Daily Show

Crime & Justice, CULTURE, NEWS, Politics & Government, Unrest, Conflicts & War

Saudi Arabia. For years, they’ve been known as the superconservative country where women can’t drive, gay people get flogged, and thieves have their hands chopped off. Now, for the thieves, uh, they can’t say they weren’t warned. I mean, Saudi Arabia literally has a sword on their flag, so you know. Yeah. They’re owning that shit. It would be like if the NFL made its logo a sad brain. You know, you… Yeah, in a way, you kind of respect them for their honesty. But, last year, […]

Screenshot: ISIS taunted about plan to take American weapons [pic]

Politics & Government

http://twitter.com/#!/cannoneerfour/status/477234490087989248 Reports and pictures coming out of Iraq this week show ISIS jihadis taking U.S. supplied weapons from Iraqi Security Forces. Was that their aim all along? A screenshot posted by Aaron Zelin would suggest so. http://twitter.com/#!/azelin/status/477229200240148481 The account is now suspended, but if the screenshot is genuine, in a tweet dated March 20, 2014 this Al Janabi character was clearly taunting the U.S. with a plan to take the weapons. http://twitter.com/#!/AmmerTime/status/477234115314339840 Or they were monitoring but no one decided to act?   http://twitter.com/#!/FindingHumanity/status/477229993496305665 What a mess.

Here’s the only thing MSNBC is missing in its ‘rah-rah war coverage’ [pic]

Politics & Government

http://twitter.com/#!/Popehat/status/514453592900927488 It’s not funny, because it’s true. Well, MSNBC totally thinks war is awesome now, guys. But its cheerleading-palooza needs a little something. @ExJon to the rescue! MSNBC's rah-rah war coverage is fun to watch. All they're missing is an animated screaming eagle with blood-soaked talons. — jon gabriel (@exjon) September 23, 2014 Aching. Sides. @exjon the constant "pew, pew, pew" from the anchors, however, is a bit distracting. — mr. big dubya (@mrbigdubya) September 23, 2014 Stop it! No, don’t. Please go on. @exjon Obama's war […]

Heh: Drudge tweet-teases Cruz bill to ban … you fill in the blank

Politics & Government

http://twitter.com/#!/ElaheIzadi/status/466970631784112128 Heh. So, this tweet went out Thursday morning: http://twitter.com/#!/DRUDGE_REPORT/status/466970542050799616 Way to tease, Drudge! The tweet was likely meant to link this Washington Examiner article about Sen. Cruz’s declaration that he will be proposing legislation to “ban the FCC’s latest adventure in ‘net neutrality’.” But Twitter users had some other ideas. http://twitter.com/#!/Matthops82/status/466970904913014785 http://twitter.com/#!/youseenmikehunt/status/466971434682941440 http://twitter.com/#!/AndrewsDisciple/status/466971310174658561 Say it ain’t so … The most delightful idea?

Politics & Government

http://twitter.com/#!/teriobrien/status/522785108852768768 Waxman, DeGette cite research funding lapses. — Jeannie Baumann (@MedResJourno) October 16, 2014 During opening statements at today’s House Energy & Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight & Investigations hearing about the U.S. response to Ebola, Democrats on the committee already seem to have identified one of the culprits: Funding. Democrat Rep. Diana DeGette of Colorado was first: Rep. Degette pushes lack of funding of gov agencies as reason for no #Ebola vaccine. Will be a point pushed by Ds today. — Luke Russert (@LukeRussert) October 16, 2014 […]

Finally! Dutiful NYT lapdog gives Obama a chance to explain his golfing needs

Politics & Government
