The funny thing it already exists, just was embargoed so people could read it and write reviews. Which was a total suprise to Barr.
Right. Review copies were sent to the media a few days ago, but warehouse quantities were shipped to places like Amazon *weeks* ago. That's so all the pre-orders can go out the day of official release. Same thing is done for DVDs and other mass media.

Jesus H. Fuck these guys are incapable of everything.

Short of fucking shit up. That's something they excel at.

Since May, the Trump administration has paid a fledgling Texas company $7.3 million for test tubes needed in tracking the spread of the coronavirus nationwide. But, instead of the standard vials, Fillakit LLC has supplied plastic tubes made for bottling soda, which state health officials say are unusable.

The state officials say that these “preforms,” which are designed to be expanded with heat and pressure into 2-liter soda bottles, don’t fit the racks used in laboratory analysis of test samples. Even if the bottles were the right size, experts say, the company’s process likely contaminated the tubes and could yield false test results. Fillakit employees, some not wearing masks, gathered the miniature soda bottles with snow shovels and dumped them into plastic bins before squirting saline into them, all in the open air, according to former employees and ProPublica’s observation of the company’s operations.

Screw that guy all the way down, quite frankly. He had a chance to impact the process and he fought to keep from doing it. So to hell with him and whatever he has to say.
On the plus side, Bolton's and Mary Trump's book (Donald's niece) are coming out close enough to the election to be fresh in people's minds. There are already ads about Bolton's stuff out by the Lincoln Project. They must have gotten an advance copy, to be ready that fast. But also book publishers are filled with liberals. Mary has a doctorate in clinical psychology by the way. Her book comes out July 28th.

Trump says he thinks some Americans are wearing masks to show they disapprove of him and not as a preventive measure during the pandemic

Good lord; the hubris of this man.

President Donald Trump told The Wall Street Journal that he believes that some Americans are wearing masks during the coronavirus pandemic to express their disapproval of him and not as a preventive measure.
He went on to say he thought that "testing is overrated," adding, "I created the greatest testing machine in history."

Democrats are going to riot if Trump wins, they're going to riot if he loses just to celebrate and rub it in. Regarding the recent supreme court decisions, I think we on the right could be more gracious in defeat if the democrats and media would be a little more magnanimous in victory.

Bolton is basically General Hux from the last Star Wars trilogy: the guy who hated Kylo Ren so much that he betrayed the New Order, just so Kylo Ren wouldn't win.


(Maybe I should have added spoilers, but I saw that twist coming from a mile away - also, those films suck anyway.)
Right uniform too. Okay, star wars derail over.

Kara ain't going to be pleased (and I would love to know how Putin replied, given the two countries' history)



You do not have to know much 20th century European history to know they go together like oil and water. What is even more boggling is Finland just had their centennial in 2017 and the president visited him. Which usually implies they are their own country.
