Not a Joke, Man

Yesterday:

(All my trunalimunumaprzure seemed so far away)

THE PRESIDENT: Hello, South Carolina! (Applause.)

Thank you, Nikki, for that intro- — if you wonder what I’m kicking here, I’m kicking this stand-in. (Laughter.) But it’s not working. How about that? All right, maybe I stand on it and give my — I’ll be 6’4”. (Laughter.)

“Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I’m 6’4″?”

And — look, former mem- — former Mayor Steve Benjamin couldn’t be here today — and you all remember Steve as your mayor — because he’s traveling with his family. And it’s great to have him here —

By the way, if you have seats, sit down. (Laughter.) I’m sorry.

I once said, “Everybody take a seat,” and there were no seats. They said, “Biden is so stupid, he didn’t know there were no seats.” (Laughter.) Anyway.

This is the United States of America, for God’s sake.

And we’re removing every single lead pipe in America.

Vietnam Bans ‘Barbie’ Movie Over South China Sea Map
CNN ^ | 7/3/2023

Vietnam has banned Warner Bros.’ highly anticipated …

????????????????????????????????????????

… film “Barbie” from domestic distribution over a scene featuring a map that shows China’s unilaterally claimed territory in the South China Sea, state media reported on Monday. (Warner Bros, like CNN, is a unit of Warner Bros. Discovery.)

The U-shaped “nine-dash line” is used on Chinese maps to illustrate its claims over vast areas of the South China Sea, including swathes of what Vietnam considers its continental shelf, where it has awarded oil concessions.

“Barbie” is the latest movie to be banned in Vietnam for depicting China’s controversial nine-dash line, which was repudiated in an international arbitration ruling by a court in The Hague in 2016. China refuses to recognize the ruling.

I hope the movie “Barbie” will also recognize my claim to control vast swaths of Poland, Czechoslovakia, Austria, the Rhineland, and Russia.

Oh, and I’ve got a Nine-Dash Line for China: Dictator-Run Communist Moth – – – – – – – – – s.

‘This is cringier than most Biden talks’: Kamala Harris is ruthlessly mocked for latest ‘word salad’ as she gets tongue twisted trying to explain ‘culture’
Daily Mail | 7/07/23 | Alex Hammer

‘Culture is – it is a reflection of our moment and our time. Right?’ the Democrat said, while engaging in several of her trademark pauses.

She continued: ‘And present culture is the way we express how we’re feeling about the moment, and we should always find times to express how we feel about the moment.

‘That is a reflection of joy. Because, you know,’ she added, before an audible pause

“audible pause”? Et tu, Daily Mail?

and eventually breaking into laughter, ‘it comes in the morning.’

Willie Brown could not be reached for comment.

In another inexplicable comment, she added, ‘We have to find ways to also express the way we feel about the moment in terms of just having language and a connection to how people are experiencing life. And I think about it in that way, too.’
