The blight of the Jerb Creators extends to all the people & places they're dumping off the payroll regardless of race or location. It's the same for predominately black towns in the South & for Newark as well.

I wouldn't say you're covering for the Jerb Creators.

Does it really? Here's a cartoon that the Bannon camp of deplorables has been circulating in recent weeks to undercut H.R. McMaster. The green hand seems quite "cosmopolitan" indeed.

And even more fun:

“Cosmopolitan” isn’t a word that’s frequently heard in American politics (“elite” is much more common), but it wouldn’t be out of place in Adolf Hitler's Germany or Joseph Stalin's Soviet Union.

It was an “anti-Semitic fighting term,” Volker Ullrich writes in his biography, Hitler: Ascent, “used against the Jews by Nazis and Bolsheviks alike.” Ullrich writes that the Jewish diaspora in Europe was “considered not only cosmopolitan, but also rootless, and in the late 1940s the term became a code word for Jews who insisted on their Jewish identity.”

Then it would be consistent for democrats to simply do away with unions.

The teachers union being the first to go, protections be gone.


4 pages of nothing, when Miller was simply right, which is why you see the mad scramble to imply racism when the argument is already lost.

Its nonsensical troll on troll action.
 
I don't know if I'm imagining it, but that cartoon stirs a very dim memory from some history book I read once.

I know puppetry seems to be a common theme both for political cartoons in general and also very specifically for anti-Semitic ones as jewish people are often portrayed as secret puppet-masters.

But I have a vague feeling I've seen something much more specifically like that one, with that particular 'puppet of a puppet' arrangement, somewhere before.

He also lives in a $1M luxury condo in the CityCenter development in downtown DC, the listed buyer is his dad's company.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...lion-citycenter-condo/?utm_term=.ade672af9154

It turns out that Miller calls home a nearly $1 million condo in CityCenter, one of Washington’s poshest addresses and a complex that proudly offers residents an upscale, urbane lifestyle. With high-end international retailers such as Hermès and Gucci on the street level alongside fancy Italian, Asian and French eateries, the building is billed as “the new ideal for sophisticated, modern, urban living.” Also in the marketing materials is the slogan: “You are where you live.”

Miller’s luxe lifestyle appears to come partly courtesy of family connections. After graduating from Duke in 2007, he worked on Capitol Hill — first on the House side for then-Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) and later for future attorney general Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) in the Senate.

Miller bought the two-bedroom CityCenter condo in 2014 for $973,000, according to property records. The unit comes with a hefty condo fee of nearly $1,800 a month. At the time, he was a 28-year-old Senate staffer with a $129,000 salary — not too shabby for a public servant. He plopped down a half-million dollars toward the purchase price, according to records.

Yup. I'm just continuously in awe at the ability for this administration to vomit up statements like this and their base just continues to lap it up. At some point you'd think it would sink in that these people aren't like you. Are nothing like you. Will never be anything like you. And want nothing to do with you other than your vote. But nope.

Never underestimate the avarice & guile of right wing politicians & propagandists. They're brilliant manipulators of the human psyche, Trump being the greatest of them all.
