  Democrats are strategizing on how to reingratiate themselves with working-class whites. Let's hope they come up with some better ideas this time around.

• North Korea conducts a new missile test, which apparently went pretty well. Some experts are saying that the missile would have the capability to reach the United States' west coast.

• Pakistan's Prime Minister, Nawaz Sharif, has resigned from office, after the country's Supreme Court ordered him removed over accusations of corruption.

• Charlie Gard, the terminally ill infant who sparked international controversy over end-of-life issues, died today. A British court had ruled he be removed from the ventilator allowing him to breath yesterday.

• In the wake of Obamacare repeal's failure, Vice has compiled a very helpful photo gallery of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell looking sad.

May anyone who had anything to do with killing that kid and not helping that family contract a most painful disease.

It's not so much not helping as refusing to allow anyone to help.

I, for one, understand your reference.

Without alienating the cult of SJW they've amassed?

Seems like Trump already beat them to it with the "rough up brown people" encouragement for the police.

[Dick Puller, Attorney at Law]

They must think the white working class is pretty stupid. Do they seriously think they're going to win them back when they've already let them know they're going to shank them as soon as it's politically expedient?

Government is just another word for the babies we choose to slowly asphyxiate together.

A panel of judges ruled death was the official remedy to the situation?

[Jerry on the sea]

Village, save, kid.

[Square = Circle]

It spared him exposure to those scary experimental drugs, didn't it?

[HazelMeade]

To be fair, the baby was probably brain damaged by that point. Even if he had lived he would have been severely disabled for life.

[Troy muy grande boner]

So? We have congressmen.

[Square = Circle]

And don't think we don't notice the subtle attempt to get a death panel in there.

I've got my eye on you.

[Unicorn Abattoir]

And you thought the death penalty was obsolete in Europe.

Pakistan's Prime Minister, Nawaz Sharif, has resigned from office, after the country's Supreme Court ordered him removed over accusations of corruption.

The Sharif don't like it.

THERE. I said it so you don't have to. YOU'RE WELCOME.

But I did Nawaz the deputy.

MS-13 members: Trump makes the gang stronger

everal people familiar with MS-13, including two gang members themselves, told CNN they think Trump's crackdown on immigrants is actually making MS-13 stronger because witnesses are more reluctant to come forward for fear of being deported.
"It's not like before, where ... they (the gang) were more hidden," said Margarita, adding that a decade after fleeing violence in El Salvador she has never felt more afraid. "People can get deported, so they don't call the police. So they (MS-13) feel more free."

But a senior Trump administration official disputed that thinking.

"The reality is that we are removing MS-13 and other criminal gang members in very large numbers, and they are hurting," the official said.
"As far as reporting crime is concerned, the biggest impediment as I said earlier, is sanctuary cities, where ... illegal immigrant gang members are released from a prison or jail and then we have to go searching for them at great costs ... and at great personal risk to the officers

Surely they can provide a list of some sort of the multitudes of violent criminals sanctuary cities have loosed onto the streets to prey on the innocent. Surely a Trump official wouldn't just make some shit up that fits the narrative they're trying to create.

[Square = Circle]

Why do you need a list? You can just tell those cities are full of crime simply by looking at all the immigrants!

[BestUsedCarSales]

MS-13 is largely crime related to the Sinaloa Cartel. At last I read about it.

So, once again a better solution is to cut down on the drug bullshit.

You might think that's how it would go, but a life of hard work, fear, and privation means that by age 35 everyone looks like modern-day Bernie Sanders. Men AND women.

[HazelMeade]

It's surprising how gay communism was, in retrospect.

I haven't looked at the entire list, but I did just learn this:

Paul Thomas Anderson described the frog scenes as the occurrence of a natural disaster, one of many found in a book in Paul's collection. This was to affect all the characters in the film and break into their reality; in a way, unifying them all.

Hey, speaking of Vice, I saw Moynihan on last night interviewing some people with useless degrees about the state of the world, what's up with his haircut? Put a small, square mustache on his face, you got Adolf Hitler.

[Crusty Juggler - Hero]

He has obviously read this: 45 Neat Hitler Youth Haircut Styles

[Citizen X - #6]

Crusty's browser history is going to get him deported one day.

How can their degrees be useless? They wanted people to notice them, so the degrees did their magic.

Use a Makeup Sponge for Mess-Free Period Sex

Just insert one (or two, if you're attempting day-one period sex) up to your cervix and you should be good for a couple of hours. They warm up quickly and feel just like the inside of a vagina, especially when they're slick with?.well, the various fluids that might render them slick. Fingers may be able to feel them, but most penises?even condomless ones?will be none the wiser, and tongues won't get anywhere near them.

After sex, simply bear down and fish the sponge(s) out ASAP. This operation is not for the faint of heart, and if this is after vigorous sex and/or sex with a very large penis or dildo, it might take a few minutes to hook your finger onto it. I've heard that the oversized ones are easier to extract, but I've never seen those at the drugstore. (Obviously, cosmetic wedges aren't going to protect you from sexually transmitted diseases or do anything to prevent pregnancy?but it's worth saying anyway.)

News you can use!

[Aloysious]

Now, I don't have naughty lady parts, but this seems, on the face of it, to be a really bad idea.

[Citizen X - #6]

Whatever happened to just putting down a towel before and wiping off after?

[Crusty Juggler - Hero]

Square! Prude! Vanilla!

[BestUsedCarSales]

Whatever happened to just doing the poonpoon and not worrying about the consequences.

[Meh.]

This title reads like you're being a thoughtful partner, but the article reads like you're tricking him. Isn't this literally what soft cups were invented for anyway? The comments are full of horror stories ("go spelunking for the missing sponge" lol), so probably best to take a pass on this hack.

It wouldn't be Friday without...

Teenage girl 'raped in Birmingham train station attacked again by second man she begged for help'

Detectives said the teenager was first assaulted in a secluded part of Birmingham's Witton railway station, near the Aston Villa football ground, some time between 7pm on Tuesday and 2am the following morning.

The victim had walked to the station with her friend, but was led away by a man who approached her.

Shortly after that attack, the girl walked out of the station and flagged down a passing vehicle to ask for help.

However, after getting in the car she was then raped a second time by another man.

[Fuck You - Cut Spending]

Being "led away" makes it sound consensual. Sure doesn't sound like coercion.

[Unlabelable MJGreen]

That's how the writer's describing it, and willfully following someone does not mean any sex that then occurs is consensual.

[MarkLastname]

Is it rape if the man lures the woman into his van with a trail of jolly ranchers?

[Griffin3]

If a man gives you candy, there's probably more in his van.
-- sez all the kids these days.

[Calidissident]

Assuming they've been able to talk to the victim, why is there such a huge time disparity? 7 pm and 2 am is a pretty big window.

[Meh.]

It really doesn't say, but if she was under the influence, it would explain a lot (why she can't remember the exact time, why she allowed herself to follow a strange man, etc.).

[Dillinger]

>>>A British court had ruled he be removed from the ventilator allowing him to breath yesterday.

a. spell check.
b. fuck you, British court.

[Fuck You - Cut Spending]

It is both of course.

of course.

Joke's on them. We already have the capability to wipe out the West Coast and all the other cities in the country.

So, in your estimation

In addition to Healthcare, what _other_ portion of the US Economy will the Federal Government nationalize within the next five years?

[Not a Libertarian]

My money is on banking. Then energy and heavy industry (they'll nationalize it to keep it alive).

Trump has fired Rince Priebus and replaced him at Chief of Staff with DHS Secretary Gen. John Kelly:

"I am pleased to inform you that I have just named General/Secretary John F Kelly as White House Chief of Staff. He is a Great American...."

He couldn't have a paranoid schizophrenic as his chief of staff.

[Finrod]

Of course not, that position is already taken.

My car only drives 13 miles to work most days. That doesn't mean it can't go farther than 13 miles.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

I see you don't drive an electric car either.

[Jerryskids]

My car can reach the West Coast. It has to make a dozen or so stops for refueling along the way, but it can be done.

[Eek Barba Durkle]

Ok, I'll ask again...

Is there ANY FUCKING REASON WHATSOEVER that Reason has joined 98% of the popular media in completely refusing to cover the absurdly news-worthy story of Imran Awan?

[Dillinger]

can't talk. global warming.

[Unlabelable MJGreen]

Not their bailiwick?

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

To be fair, is it really a major news event or is it just another shady DC staffer who was involved in some criminal activity. There have to be thousands of those.

[chemjeff]

Exactly. Team Red is understandably crowing about it, but Reason =/= Team Red.

[colorblindkid]

But this DC staffer was an IT guy with access to dozens of members' computers and worked directly under the head of the DNC during the election where their e-mails were hacked. The head of the DNC is on camera angrily confronting and threatening capital police over it, and she only fired him last week. He and his family members have made millions of dollars, much of which has been sent back to Pakistan.

I don't think it's going to be a grand conspiracy that leads us to Seth Rich's killers, but c'mon. This should absolutely be a bigger story and journalists should be investigating.

There was a Fifth Column episode where they kind of mentioned this. Talking about any aspect of the Clinton Foundation during the election, for example, would get them labeled tinfoil Alex Jones-types

Is that what they've decided to focus on on FOX News in lieu of the multiple failures and disasters befalling the Republican party this week?

"Is that what they've decided to focus on on FOX News in lieu of the multiple failures and disasters befalling the Republican party this week?"

I'm sure this has to do with the failure to pass one more disastrous 'healthcare' bill to replace the Obamanation we currently have.
I'm all for that failure; Trump at least got that right. Let it die as it must.

[chemjeff]

In all honesty. What is the *general* significance of the Imran Awan story? From what I have read, he evidently was stealing from the till (in multiple ways) at the DNC, and he was apprehended trying to flee the country. Which looks bad for Team Blue, of course. And I can understand why Team Red would gloat about it. But why should anyone else? Yeah he was evidently a corrupt DNC staffer working for a generally corrupt organization. Is this supposed to be earth-shattering news?

[Sevo]

After EBD's comment, I did a search.
I'd add it looks like some bank fraud which would get MONEY LAUNDERING!!!!! if he didn't have guanshi (which it seems he does).
Other than that it seems a lot of innuendo, the same sort of crap aimed at 'Russki collusion!!!!!', and some links to the Clintons. Run of the mill scumbag working for the D camp.
Tony would be all over it if the guy worked for the R camp, but get back to us when there's something worth more than a wink and a nudge.

[HazelMeade]

You guys need to google 'pizzagate' if you want to REALLY understand what's going on.

Are they going to give free beer and wings and free copies of one of the old Victoria Secrets catalogs? Or are they only talking about ingratiating themselves with the right kind of whites?

So is Chuck Schumer the de facto Senate Majority Leader now? And how long before Trump figures out if he just puts a (D) behind his name all the scandals and attacks go away?

[KerryW]

Considering the DWS angle, I would say it is news.

[KerryW]

Duh, this was supposed to be a reply to Paul @5:58

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

I'm not saying it's NOT news at all, but DNC and 'shady staffer' is what I'd call Wednesday.

Yeah, but it's Friday! So it's obviously news!

Oh wait

"Reingratiate themselves with working class whites"

So after years of the left using identity politics to portray straight white working men as the cause of all the evils of the world, now, in an attempt to regain power, they are going to forgive all that? What a wonderful way to expose your own hypocrisy.

So, 150,000 - 300,000 is considered middle class again now? Funny.
