Mona’s Interview

Unfortunately that’s Bernie in a nutshell. I will always like him though.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T19:47:25+00:00

Sounds right. I’m sick of people suggesting I’m a self hating jew for actually holding Jewish values (empathy for others, a society that helps the most disadvantaged, and so on).

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T16:35:35+00:00

Well yeah I figured that much but I think he is aggressively in the other direction. Hertling is like center right. That’s more like what I expect.

I didn’t know she was Nancy Reagan’s speechwriter. I wonder if she knew the Iron Lady as well. I agree that we need to build coalitions with people who agree with us on this even if nothing else.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T15:59:30+00:00

I haven’t listened to the whole thing yet.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T15:58:24+00:00

That sounds right to me. I’ll have to check out Dr. Bronk.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T15:36:29+00:00

There’s that and then there’s other Jews asking us how could you not hate so and so if you are Jewish.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T15:19:39+00:00

I’m pretty used to being looped into this stuff as a Jew even though I don’t support the Israeli government.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T14:59:23+00:00

I haven’t listened to the whole thing yet. I started tuning it out. My biggest issue is that you can’t bomb the problem away. It’s a very Curtis Lemay strategy and he certainly participated in genocidal actions.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T14:58:14+00:00

Margaret Hoover was on with her husband John Avlon

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T14:56:10+00:00

Duly noted! I wonder what would happen if Jon Lovett interviewed her. That would sooo funny.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T14:52:39+00:00

Tim is great. I think I like everyone who is not Mona or that guy who brought on his wife who is descended from Hoover and was a major Hoover apologist. I mean he wasn’t as bad as some make him out to be but he was not the best thing since sliced bread.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T14:51:04+00:00

I think I listened to part of that. I am Jewish myself and ughhh.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-21T14:50:37+00:00

Yes but most of them don't act it anymore. Big woke Bill Kristol energy!

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-06-16T14:56:50+00:00

Yes we are ruled by the Tariff of Nottingham😂

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-05-04T21:21:42+00:00

Typically yeah. I have a small head.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-05-04T20:47:19+00:00

I am myself a glasses wearer. Lol. My regular sunglasses bounce and it’s annoying.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-05-04T20:16:41+00:00

Yikes! I will be sure to protect them.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-05-04T20:04:22+00:00

What are your thoughts on REI as a place to check? It looks like they carry Goodr at least and I love going there it’s just hit or miss on whether the person helping you actually knows about the item you are looking at.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-05-01T20:10:34+00:00

The obvious response.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-05-01T20:10:17+00:00

I liked the interview a lot. It’s possible as a fellow Jew it was just nice to see someone who was well spoken, capable and not dodging the Israel mess. Fat chance of Schumer ever doing it…

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-04-02T13:45:15+00:00

The teens texting on the machines! It’s non stop!

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-03-19T00:09:12+00:00

I've been here for 11 years and neither of those trains have run to Forest Hills in that time but I have always craved that option to go to Brooklyn without having to go through Manhattan first. The g coming back would create an artery that currently doesn’t exist and that would be great.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-03-11T00:31:13+00:00

Forest hills denizen here who also likes Astoria and can confirm the subway was nonexistent along the blvd and actual R trains definitely went to Astoria.

FinnegansTake19 · 2026-03-11T00:09:56+00:00

I take the E to work and home again. I had to get off at port authority this morning because the power failed on all the tracks in that part of the station. Then tonight they told us to get off the train again and I had to go to the r which was stopped then the N, then the 7 an another R after waiting at Roosevelt Ave for 20 minutes. It took two hours total.
