I thought Trump loved giving money to businesses.  Is he trying to fark-up the businessman vote too?

He likes giving money to HIS businesses.  Sometimes to the businesses of people who benefit him.

fark the daily wire. There are plenty of other fake news sites with racist dog whistles, maybe try one we don't know is shiat subby.

The areas hardest hit were actually really vibrant Latino and Black business district along with some megacorps like Wells Fargo, Honeywell, and Allina Health.  The last 15 years really turned around an otherwise bleak and dangerous part of town.  However recently crime and homelessness was getting bad, lots of it linked to the housing crisis in the city.  Rents were getting San Francisco-esque.

There'll probably be a migration to the first ring suburbs like Bloomington and Brooklyn park. However I could see in the COVID-19 world with all restaurants losing out big time a shift away from fixed business and a trend towards impermanent staples like food trucks or drop off centers.  Maybe some damaged structures could be swapped out for park like food truck courts.  Turn lemons into lemonade.

Any reason why we're greening articles on a page operated by the bloviating f*ckbag Ben Shapiro?

WE really need a Admin rating system. So we can see which articles are lit by what Admin.

So we could follow them or ignore them at the root level.
 
2020-07-12 9:37:03 PM  
Maybe we can get an article that's not framed as "Trump heroically denies funding to devilish democrat that let those people run amok?"

 How many times do I have to read "Democrat Mayor" in the same article? Hell, the very headline itself?

How about we only green stories from publications that have staffs with more than three brain cells amongst them, hey? How about trying that?

Because this blog sucks.

If right wing news sites had anything intelligent or factual to say then I'm fine with it.  If they're just going to make bullshiat talking points and make up stuff then they deserve all the mocking they get.

Sorry Ben.

When you insist on using "Democrat Mayor" you have relinquished any journalistic integrity you pretended to have.

We are. It's called "Voting the asshole out of office and letting prosecutors put him in jail, and then fixing the problem".

It's only flaw is that it's going to take another half a year to fully implement.

So can I assume that Minnesota is not a swing state?

Trump will win votes in Minnesota by sending them money.

Trump will lose votes in Minnesota if he withholds money.

I would think that calculus is simple enough for even Trump to understand.
 
2020-07-13 12:20:43 AM  
He lost Minnesota by 1.5% in 2016. Obviously he wants to improve on that number and get it up closer to 10 or so.

So "Democrat Mayor" is the new "Republican President?"

And Ben Shapiro's Gish gallop is the Habsburg jaw of right-wing rhetoric. wanna be considered an "intellectual" by Trumpkins? Only pee in the sink after you do the dishes, and learn to rattle off irrelevant factoids without drooling enough to submerse a saguaro.

Lotta donations have been sent into BLM. Maybe they can get them to help out. And personally I support this decision. Inactions have consequences. Let the mob run free to placate them and you deserve what you get or don't get.

Which of the comments under the article was your favourite?
Was it perhaps the one telling people to shoot all the Democrats?
Or maybe the one advocating businesses leaving and setting up in white areas where 'normal people' live?

The owner of the site literally pays people to talk about how great his tweets are. If I wanted to see people sucking off a high pitched whiney biatch, I would watch Japanese porn. In fact that's a shiat ton more productive because at least it's entertaining!

So I've never really made a mental note or paid much attention to Ben Shapiro. However his name came up in a twitter feed. Then someone mentioned its a shame about his sister. So I googled, expecting a tragedy.

🙄 Not to mention, Tom farking Emmer sent a letter to Fatass saying that before he sends MN money, he should consider looking at (dog whistle) leadership and the way they handled this...and that we should make sure that the (dog whistle) leadership not make the same mistakes (dog whistle) so this doesn't happen again.

Emmer is Bachmann's replacement, if that tells you anything. HE DOESN'T EVEN LIVE IN MINNEAPOLIS.

How do we not let this happen again? Vote Republican and jail the blacks and poors. Brilliant!

fark Emmer and I hope he gets anal herpes on his tongue after having it so far up Trump's ass.
