Everyone knows that won't work.

Gotta send them thoughts as well.

I mean, if holy water kills vampires, and you blessed the rains down in Africa

That would explain why I've never heard of Africa having a vampire problem, unlike North America and Europe.

(Yes I stole this joke from twitter)

It's rained every day for over a week in GA, take some of that.

With Denham losing in Cali, whats the net gain for the Dems this election?
---

+33, 9 uncalled (most likely final outcome is probably D+39)
---

damn, just one off of my D+40 guess

+33, 9 uncalled (most likely final outcome is probably D+39)

How is this possible?

If the 9 go 5/4 then it's +34
If the 9 go 6/3 then it's +36
If the 9 go 7/2 then it's +38
If the 9 go 8/1 then it's +40

Isn't +39 impossible?
---

Or am I just confusing the difference between the 2 sides with the amount the dems could have more than the previous 2 years?
---

All of the uncalled seats are currently R seats. +N is relative to what they have right now; they're up to +33 from all of the called races (I believe they flipped 35 R seats and lost two D seats, though I may be wrong).

That isn't how it works. They were at 195 seats prior. +40 puts them at 235 seats. +39 234. Etc.

It is probably going to be 232-203 or something. Meaning they were +37

Could have just said yes to this.

Breaking: Fox News says the network "supports CNN in its legal effort to regain its White House reporter's press credentials." Here's the full statement

Hey kudos to Fox for once!

Flake maybe actually doing something to force a Mueller protection bill vote?

I think they can get around his committee no vote if they really want to force it, but interesting

Pelosi is having trouble finding the votes to be re elected Speaker but apparently moderate Republicans might bail her out?

Let's make fun of eddv tho

not exactly a huge endorsement, ed doesn't like bernie for president much

who loved avenatti

why would someone love him

The discussion of him as a potential presidential candidate seemed insane to me.

The only people who want Michael Avenatti to be president are Michael Avenatti and his mom.

Step 1: seize power
Step 2: burn down your base of operations

Ingenious
---

I'd like to point out that the Avenatti story claimed he hit his wife and then his wife came out and said they hadn't seen each other in months.

And Jacob Wohl is taking credit.

So take it all with a grain of salt.

He thinks theyre doing it to push a climate change narrative

TMZ initially reported that Michale Avenatti was arrested for an incident involving his estranged wife. The story's been updated to remove reference of wife -- now just says "a woman." (No correction note)

@mj_lee
I spoke with Avenatti's wife on the phone. I havent see Michael in months. Its a complete fabrication," she said. Bruises on my face? It is insanity. He wouldnt hit anybody. Especially a woman. Hes got two daughters.

Lol the right falling for another Wohljob.
---

Even if the story turns out to be fabricated, hes got two daughters is pretty poor reasoning as to why he wouldnt hit a woman

My husband would never start that barfight against another man; hes got a son!
---

whether the story is fabricated or not, literally nobody on the left actually likes Avenatti. sometimes getting to see an insanely oblivious Ulti quote is actually a blissful joy. Avenatti even having any prospective shot at president is entirely a sensationalist media fabrication.
---

"The incident originally took place on Tuesday but LAPD responded to the address Wednesday where Avenatti could be heard saying She hit me first, This is bullst, the website reported."

Well, I mean that is consistent with women should be equal to men, I suppose.

And lol at all those in here who were praising the dude nonstop acting like it never happened.

Where is the Mario party gif? Shouldn't we make it where avenetti kills himself off the cliff on the ball?
---

What a fuckin jackass. I wonder if the cases will go to another firm
---

I mean I don't keep up with these topics so I have no idea about whether people here specifically liked the dude. He has definitely said stuff that I actually liked, but as a whole, he's little more than a grifter and an opportunist. There are also plenty of establishment-is-good types around here that would not at all surprise me if they did actually like Avenatti. But no one on the actual left cares about this dude.

like Eddv hilariously preferring him over Bernie is more evidence of that
---

Oh damn it's veered into 'deny' territory. I'll go back to my life that doesn't involve this character and let the courts do its job
---

And it's not really a "gotcha" when a public figure doing some good things ends up being deeply flawed

Are you going to go around pooping on people that liked Cosby's comedy in the 80s?

Remember when you said 538 was garbage and then they basically called the mid terms perfectly.
---

I thought he was fun and I liked his carny huckster style - blame the wrestling fan in me.

but when he started spouting racist stuff I backed down from supporting him quite a lot.

Still like him more than Bernie though.

Nobody was praising him.

L o g f a q s dot com if youd like to look him up.

I love how triggered Corrik is by a Mario Party gif holy shit, this is his second time using it as some proof of everybody being in love with him

the gif isn't even a compliment of Avenatti, the joke was literally that he doesn't need to do anything because the team is full of complete morons (like Corrik)
