It’s telling me… It wasn’t a block buster story, it was run of the mill gossip mongering; Some people believe it is a real story; Some people think it’s a bogus story; Most people don’t really care and moved on 5 mins after the news broke; Distrust in our media institutions is at an all time high. That’s what it tells me, Sport. Signed, Chief

What’s it telling you, playa?

The silence is deafening?

You have to hop off that pedestal you put yourself on, Fergs, lots of people work with people and get/give hugs. You’re dismissing the words and feelings of the women who made the complaints about Biden touching them inappropriately, not me. It’s you making an absurd argument. You not being a hugger doesn’t preclude you from acknowledging Biden’s behavior, geesh you love to carry water for the guy.

Thank you for providing the link where Biden acknowleged inappropriate touching of females in an attempt to make a human connection in times of comfort by rubbing noses, rubbing the necks of women, running his hands down their backs, and rubbing the thighs of his women because he wanted to. I used “groped” for efficiency. Kudos to you, though, Fergie for going to bat for him. On your worst day, I’d find it hard to believe you would rub the backs, necks, thighs and rub noses with your female patients. Would you defend a colleague who did so? I agree, btw, that on the perfectly acceptable to morally repugnant scale, what Epstein did was worse and I’d think the victims of Biden’s behavior would likely say the same. Still, it’s also a long, long way from acceptable behavior but a non-issue for Biden supporters who are suddenly fixated on a story about a potentially fictional birthday card.

An incredibly high percentage of Americans voted for Joe Biden after he acknowledged groping nearly a dozen women, Andy. Add that to his history of making racially insensitive comments over decades in public life. People care when they care, develop moral amnesia when they don’t.

Look back further, NB. Did he even work the drive through at the McDonald's when running for office? Stunt double, I say….he was off planning for the September visit to Buckingham palace. How he knew about it then is unclear, but Charles may be in on it.

Would you support releasing the Grand Jury testimony? During the Smith affair, one of our resident legal experts made the point that in certain cases, “special rules” apply for “electeds”. Then of course, we saw leaked photos purporting to show classified files designed to influence public opinion, something outside what one would assume was standard operating procedure. Then, we had NYS reimagining legal theory to pursue a political opponent. Oh, and unless I’m mistaken, the Carroll civil suit required the temporary pause on traditional thoughts with respect to statutes of limitations. So, Mup, Bondi decides to steamroll this through and deal with consequences. We see the inside baseball version we typically don’t see. Would you support that?

I wonder if in a post-Mamdani NYC if hot gurl skimpy bikini season will even be a thing. By the time he seizes means of production and distribution, considers the socioeconomic impact with respect to manufacturing, income disparity and impact on climate change, there is a lot to think about. It’s boring af, but we need to think things through. If you and Kay can pull this get together off, document for posterity and I’ll shoot you my email. I’ll back them up on a dvd, or a cloud if I can figure it out. I’d do that for you, yes, I would do that for you both.

I believe Fergie meant disposable emotional income. He heard about it on NPR’s hard hitting community program called “The Happening”. Right now he’s trying to decide between “purely positive vibes” and “love buffins for the late night crew”.

I can only say that as American, I needed to know this show was on the air before worrying about the cancellation. What a stale, old format.

He's done all right on that front in the past, some call him President.

Hot girls for Scelro. Nice

Yeah, ok B, like something called "sclerotherapy"is actually a thing. You're in a cult. A cult of sclerotheravidivists.

You too, Neddy.

That will be of great benefit to some, notably those who believe in the inherent good of a socialist utopia and those who are convinced that the entire clothing/BMI is an integral part of the patriarchy. I learned that my body weight was unrelated to the weight of my clothes early on, like aged 17 or 18. I’m not saying I was a prodigy but certain things I have an affinity for. Outrageous, slanderous and unnecessary. Epstein reflects the worst who walks among us, and that indeed transcends politics. Let’s push this out a couple years and assume your guy Zoloft becomes mayor. I’d take even odds that there will be scandal where he grabbed, touched, fondled or made inappropriate comments about some low level staffer. For goodness sake the sun had not even set on #metoo and #believeall before the people under your tent were trotting about Bill Clinton and not far removed from voting for his perpetually enabling wife. Thank you, you’re right. I view your entire portfolio of commentary as a giant red herring, Kay, well-intended or otherwise. The socialist bent takes a long and winding road to the same conclusion virtually every time. Wealthy wannabe monarchs preaching togetherness and the greater good while availing themselves of everything they can stuff in their pockets while selling you cheap terlet paper. But, regardless, I enjoy most of our dialogue. Your penchant for violent rhetoric can be troubling, but I’m comfortable that should your Revolution come to pass, and you and Z’s comrades come to get my stuff because they were unable or unwilling to put the effort in to get it themselves you’ll intercede and get me a nice cushy job in a local bread line. I think he’s talking about Rosanne Barr.

Potential reasons…Qualifications and reputation. Experience with the case being pursued. Political connections and favoritism. Seniority. The Garland DOJ liked her and/or her work. Privilege. US attorneys are fired or asked to resign for a variety of reasons, including change in administration and leadership in the DOJ. It actually seems pretty common. I would think it was just a matter of time when Trump returned to the White House, beyond any issues we may not know about. But yes, coincidental to all the hubbub around the Epstein case lately.

I’m sure she had some successes as well, I’m just going by what is known. If they were lawfully able to terminate, nit much else to talk about. I’ve mentioned a friend I had at NYS AG office. He said new admin means some people get bounced. Just part of the deal. Barr was one of the hero’s of the day. Spoke passionately and truthfully on the weaponization of govt, spoke passionately in opposition to Trump when he felt it appropriate.

He was convicted, but the feedback is that he was overcharged. I mean, she’s the government with an unlimited budget, no concerns about cost or any personal stake beyond her reputation. She might be a decent enough lawyer who just git caught up in the fame game, but she missed quite badly or so the story goes. Maybe you’re right and she just built the rest of the case for kicks. I believe she also serves at the pleasure of the admin and those folks are often sent packing. . Seems they gave her a chance as a legacy and she dropped the ball. if she can be fired, and they wanted her fired, she’s just another person who got fired.

She was reportedly involved in the Diddy case and it ended up as sort of a debacle. Seems more likely it was just time to go.

Does it even cost anything when climate science is involved? You can't put a price tag on this sort of $10,000,000,000 program, can you?

Cool, Ned. Thoughts on Dr. Stevie Wonder Fergie being completely blindsided by Biden's decline because no one sent him a Fb post telling him what to think (and when to start thinking it!) from 2020 to 2024? It was "inexcusable", he said!

Oh, I was completely uninterested in the minifesto you wrote in defense of your ignorance of Biden's health issues, and focused on that which we agree on--someone should have helped you understand the very complicated relationship the Biden crew had with the truth, and that the humble Biden supporter was caught completely unaware by Biden's cognitive decline prior to the 2024 debate. For the record moving forward, nothing I have shared here today, in this or prior posts, deals with any speech or public appearance made by or referring to Joe Biden from 1968-2018.

This is where I’m at. I recall coverage of Biden’s performance at the debate and thinking “Wow, his stutter is really, really impacting him tonight.”. Then, later, I thought “Man, he’s not making any sense at all. It has to be the common cold!”. I felt badly for you true believers. I think a phone call to each of you, before the debate, would have gone a long way toward relieving anxiety. The cynical among us will point out how that was impossible given the week to 10 days he prepared in advance to sound so completely lost and befuddled but was it too much to ask Dr. Jill to send a quick handwritten letter to supporters signed by Dr. Jill? Then again, maybe I’m just old fashioned. Btw Fergie—-kudos to you for acknowledging you needed assistance to work through all this. So many people struggle in silence. You’re a very brave young man.

I’m not trying to convince you, Mup, and respect your opinion. The remark about losing sleep was not meant to imply you were, it’s just where I’m at. Still….i think you’re taking two separate issues and combing them into one. Issue 1: Epstein and all he represents. You’re focusing on El Naranja (just found out what that means!) yet imo, a reasonable person should also question the actions of Tapones para el pelo Mr. and Ensalada de la señora Word (apologies if Google translate let me down here). Again, this applies only if you believe a list of powerful people exists and is being kept from the public. That said, I do understand your distrust of President Trump. Issue 2. DJTs handling of the saga post 1/20/25. As I said, I believe he’s handling this poorly. We’ll see what happens and how it impacts him moving forward. Finally, I’m completely uncertain on the suicide issue. In some ways, it reminds me of the Trump assassination attempt in Pa—it was so comically bad and incompetent if it was a set up that it’s hard to believe it was a set up. On the other hand, liberal Senator Chuck Schumer has assured us that the intelligence agency has six ways from Sunday to get someone. 🤷‍♂️ It wasn’t just voting though. It was the resolute belief in Biden and his handlers over nearly 4 full years as he deteriorated in front of our eyes. Then again, these folks were indignant about national security and classified documents until quite predictably their guy had a treasure trove. Then, someone suggested “slippage” and they did an about face.
