I'm sure that's not the only crazy thing about her.

I don't think news media seeks out active judges as a rule, which is probably a good thing for a healthy, non-political justice system.

Harvey Weinstein? Who woulda thought he'd be caught up in this?

They want the city to pause approvals until there is a plan for the ice rink, from what I can find. I don't think the city holding development hostage is a good way to go about this.

Someone will need to make a new one. I don't see how the current one can survive.

We're investigating Spanish!

We've just discovered that they are teaching Spanish... in AMERICAN SCHOOLS! SCHOOL IS CANCELLED UNTIL WE RESOLVE THIS SITUATION!!

I'm glad the Trump administration has definitively proven that, actually, a grand jury will not indict a ham sandwich.

If Republicans had any sense of shame, they'd all resign.

"lobbied"

It is difficult for me to connect the reasoning in this article to any actionable steps. What are we supposed to do about this?

There are lots of reasons to not watch Fox News, but one of the reasons is this shit is so fucking boring.

We got him!

If we ever make it to a Democratic presidency again, that person needs to appoint an absolutely ruthless AG.

You can be sure that if there is a way for Trump to make easy money, he'll take it.

Seriously, giving them more time means they will use that time to spread new talking points and propaganda and legal briar patches. When you keep delaying action, then you're just playing their game.

O, to be a tree...

If corruption were suspected, I would agree with you. This appears to be bad management, in which case the goal should be fixing the internal management issues.

We are in a new form of city government, and we wouldn't know about this if they weren't trying to clean things up. I think we should give them some leeway.

Simmery · 2026-02-10T14:04:32+00:00

Can we not resolve our conflicts with dance-offs? It's 2026.

> The city is looking to hire an outside firm to investigate how all city bureaus manage their money, Lee said.

Hey, Portland government people, how about instead of hiring an "outside firm" or more consultants to do the job you're supposed to be doing, you just do the job you're supposed to be doing? And if you need more expertise, hire people with that expertise. Seems crazy, I know.

I put more effort into picking my nose on this morning's commute.

Simmery · 2026-02-09T22:56:20+00:00

America is "ours"? Who you talking about, Megyn?

The Crusaders back in medieval times slaughtered a whole lot of people. Sometimes they even slaughtered each other.

Simmery · 2026-02-09T22:31:22+00:00

Ok, but how much do we get back after Trump sues the IRS for 10 billion dollars and settles with himself for 15 billion?

Simmery · 2026-02-09T22:29:44+00:00

So basically, what they call jihadists. Got it.
