            Only a person who thinks on a single axis could possibly believe the two parties are the same in any meaningful way. Reality is more complex than that.

      I heard a great multi-part series on NPR focusing on interviews right before his death. If I wasn’t lazy or thought you’d actually be interested, I’d find em and link em. Here we are though.

        Behind the Bastards has a 6-part show all about Kissinger. Dave and Gareth from The Dollop are guests, it was pretty enlightening to someone who grew up never really learning anything about Kissinger except that he was a behind the scene policy guy for decades.

    Okay, well if he keeps that I promise I’ll make sure the last few drops of piss avoid his grave after he dies. But only the last few drops.

      Gary Whittington, the man he shot, was a Republican and major financial backer of both of George W. Bush’s election campaigns.

    In true republican fashion, he didn’t care until his own family was hurt by the MAGA cult. Typical.

    If it peels off never-Trump Haley voting Republicans from not voting to voting Harris when they see all these old-guard Republicans endorsing Harris… Then I guess the enemy of my enemy is my friend after all.

    I think this is more about MAGA canceling Liz Cheney than anything more principled.

      This isn’t an endorsement of Harris. It’s an anti-endorsement of Trump.
