Brought to you by the same people that want to abolish fossil fuel usage and start using electric, with not the first clue where that electricity really comes from.

Anything is possible. I happen to like my meat cooked. Yes, there are meals in France worth eating. One doesn't usually find them in fancy restaurants, though (IMO). FWIW, I take my own jar of peanut butter when I visit that country--they do have fantastic bread! flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

Well, this is a first for me. Someone complaining about the food in France. Man, you must not be eating at the right places! Though I reckon you probably don't have a French mother-in-law who is a master in the kitchen and cooks every meal you request for dinner. Taking your own jar of peanut butter to France though is a smart play. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

I was assigned to a "Transfer of Technology" project in Barcelona for a year and a half. Spanish cuisine is really great (think southern France, with more olive oil and less butter), but believe it or not, one of the things I missed was peanut butter. One day at the office, one of the Spanish engineers mentioned that there was a U.S. Navy ship docked at the harbor and visitors were welcome. He mentioned that he had had a sandwich on board, with some sort of "strange brown paté." I knew, immediately, what he was talking about, and as soon as I could leave the project that afternoon, my wife and I headed for the harbor. Saluted the ensign, requested permission to come aboard, and feasted on peanut butter sandwiches. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

AOC Says She's 'Proud' of Omar After Anti-Semitic Comments https://townhall.com/tipsheet/...ic-comments-n2541400 Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez came to Rep. Ilhan Omar’s defense Tuesday after the Democratic lawmaker came under fire from both the left and right for her recent anti-Semitic comments, saying she was “proud” of her colleague. “Unlike this President, Rep. @IlhanMN demonstrated a capacity to acknowledge pain & apologize, use the opportunity to learn abt history of antisemitism,+grow from it while clarifying her stance. I’m also inspired by Jewish leadership who brought her in, not push her out, to heal,” she tweeted. “Lots of people here proclaiming to be “woke” trying to police communities on what they are/aren’t allowed to be upset by," she added. "I’m proud @IlhanMN raised the issue of lobbyist in politics & equally proud of her sensitivity to communities. Both are possible.” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ✔ @AOC Unlike this President, Rep. @IlhanMN demonstrated a capacity to acknowledge pain & apologize, use the opportunity to learn abt history of antisemitism,+grow from it while clarifying her stance.

Trash and a hypocrite. People online say the Navy Yard area is like frat bro central - a lot of toxic masculinity over there. https://freebeacon.com/politic...-apartment-building/ Ocasio-Cortez Living in Luxury Navy Yard Apartment Building Democratic socialist had publicly worried about whether she could afford rent After fretting about whether she'd be able to afford rent, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) has moved into a luxury apartment building in the District of Columbia's Navy Yard neighborhood, the Washington Free Beacon has learned. Ocasio-Cortez, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, got a big raise with her election to Congress, a job that comes with a $174,000 annual salary. She told the New York Times she was concerned about how she would get an apartment before that salary kicked in. She ended up moving into a luxury apartment building with a wide array of amenities where rent for even a studio apartment exceeds $2,000 a month. The Washington Free Beacon is not disclosing the exact building Ocasio-Cortez lives in due to safety concerns expressed by her office. Her office pushed back against the notion that it was hypocritical for Ocasio-Cortez, who has made housing affordability one of her top policy concerns, to move into a luxury building. A spokesman pointed out that her office also uses a car with an "internal combustion engine that runs on fossil fuels," even though she thinks their use should be eliminated. Many sympathized with Ocasio-Cortez's stated difficulty with finding an apartment in D.C., where rents have been on the rise in recent years. Affording a second residence in the capital has proven to be a challenge for lawmakers on both sides of the aisle, with some choosing to live together with colleagues or to bunk up in their congressional office as cost-saving measures. Ocasio-Cortez's home district residence is a Bronx apartment that was purchased in 1986 by her father, who died from cancer in 2008. She has lived there with her partner since graduating from Boston University in 2011, she has said. City records show the mortgage on the Bronx apartment was satisfied in June 2007, leaving her only responsible for monthly contributions to home-owner association fees and property taxes, which an office spokesperson says were between $750 and $1,000 a month. Ocasio-Cortez's living situation was frequently misrepresented during her successful campaign focused on being relatable to the "working-class struggles" of fellow New Yorkers, with reports falsely indicating that the family had to "fight off foreclosure" on the Bronx apartment. "In 2008, Ocasio-Cortez's father passed away from cancer when he was just 48," wrote CNBC. "In order to help fight off foreclosure on her family's apartment in the Bronx, Ocasio-Cortez took on several jobs in restaurants—often working 18-hour shifts." The confusion was caused by Ocasio-Cortez, who avoided mentioning, before it was revealed by the Daily Mail, that her father had purchased a second residence—a three-bedroom home about 30 miles north of New York City in Westchester—where she moved as a young child. Three days before the Daily Mail report, Ocasio-Cortez had made it seem in an interview with The Intercept that the Westchester home her mother lived in was in New York City. "With my family we sold my childhood home," Ocasio-Cortez said. "My mother was forced to move to Florida because she could no longer afford to live in New York City, remain in New York City." Financial disclosure forms show that her only outstanding liability is student loan debt between $15,001 and $50,000. Ocasio-Cortez's new Navy Yard stomping ground was recently named "one of the coolest neighborhoods in the world." It has been described as the go-to place to both live and socialize for Trump staffers. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

Doesn’t change just because they admit it. | |||

Ocasio-Cortez-Macarena-Hey-Macarena's Policy Adviser Declares That The New Socialist Utopia Won't Be Paying for Reconstructive Surgery for the Elderly, Then Deletes It Socialism costs a lot of money, and you're going to have to save costs somewhere. How about euthanizing the very young and the very old?!? The former can't vote and the latter won't vote for you. Dan Riffe, “policy guy” for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, told old people that a future public healthcare option will not pay for things like hip replacements. Here’s a screenshot because for some odd reason he deleted it: https://twitchy.com/gregp-3534...enarians-screenshot/ "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

I’m no fan of OCA except to the extent that she provides good humor and meme content. But $2K for an apartment in DC isn’t out of line for someone that young making $174K. I wouldn’t call it a luxury apartment either. What is difficult to swallow is someone making that much right out of college and zero experience- not including bartending and blow jobs. Congress definitely needs a pay scale. | |||
