"I stand with Martha's Vineyard" LOL That's so rich. Even richer than the sanctimonious a-holes who live there.

Obviously these poor people needed the help of GoFundMe. And -- can you believe it? -- their money didn't get frozen in transit!

it's amazing that someone even started that GoFundMe campaign. currently at $43K. wasn't there enough cash rattling around on the Vineyard to help these people? I would think The Obamas, or David Letterman, or Chelsea Handler or Larry David or James Taylor could've reached that sum with a personal check or a couple of phone calls.

They certainly could have. But they didn't.

The rich agree with paying a fair share - most of your income just leave their alone.

Where does that money go now? To pay bus charters in case more migrants show up? Migrants is their word. Mine is invaders.

Expand full comment

well naturally we can count on Martha's Vineyard to forward the money to Cape Cod where the migrants will be permanently resettled. Cape Cod and the military base there that houses these migrants will bear the full cost of care and services. so we definitely know that Martha's Vineyard will send the money there. absolutely no doubt about it. yessirreee.

It is amazing so many moronic suckers are actually contributing.

It would be very funny -- I mean, problematic -- if large numbers of immigrants up and down the East Coast started to show up on Martha's Vineyard because it provided abundant free food and handed out generous aid packages.

Martha's Vineyard had to "send the right message" to immigrants: if you come here, we'll put you on a bus out immediately.

That's what made the move so brilliant. If MV had said nothing and simply absorbed the immigrants without a fuss, another plane would show up next week. Or maybe two, or three. And the MV residents know that, so they have to put their foot down right away.

Fuss is irrelevant. Allow virtue signalers reap what they sew.

Out of curiosity I checked the page. They are no longer accepting donations. Any idea what that means?

Expand full comment

They were sufficiently mocked online and shamed into not taking donations after the migrants had already left. Note that none of the money actually goes to help the migrants, just the people who helped them.

To "prepare for future emergencies". Which DeSantis has promised them. Love that man. Oh yes, take him to court - please!!

“Campaign not found” lmao I wonder if they realized how out of touch that was... or even scarier, if they reached their fundraising goal 😅

Wow that's amazing! They stopped taking donations after the world was pointing out that the immigrants weren't even there any longer. I guess even just the old link was too embarrassing to allow to survive the memory hole.

Well, I was never a big fan of kale chips, so...wonder how they go with salsa?

They don’t, unless you’ve finished a bottle of tequila

That's what started it all. "Eat the worm!"

Good one 👍

your turn to try LOL. (hands Keahi the salsa)

Mmmm, nice and crunchy, a bit bland but the salsa definitely helps. "Camarero, otra cerveza por favor!" Oh, wait, this is in Italy. Shall we try it with the house chianti?

On the plus side, if the Earth is heating up as fast as they claim, you'll soon be able to put your toast outside on the sidewalk and get a nice brown on it!

Expand full comment

spoiler alert: the Earth has been cooling for the last few decades, the only thing heating up is the fraudulent data at NOAA:

Putting your toast out on the sidewalk will likely get a nice brown something on it, in any major US lib-run city 😝

Well, last time I checked, assholes like Gates were suggesting a diet based largely on bugs was a good thing. Maybe that "nice brown something" is another nutrient they will begin to promote...likely during an election cycle.

Expand full comment

Wiltster, there's an old joke that goes something like this, you might have heard it:

"Life is like a shit sandwich; the more bread you have, the less shit you have to eat."

No doubt those doing the promoting will make sure they have lots of bread.

Expand full comment

Too. Damned. Funny. Well played, sir! There is an old parable about bread and circuses, no? I reckon serving shit sandwiches to the Hoi Polloi dates back to Roman times.

Aside from modern technology, about 90% of western society is very similar to Roman times.

There's a wealth of information on that site, and the author does a pretty decent job of making it approachable to an intelligent reader who is not a 'stats with cats' master.

The takeaway from this particular page is that the data for the USA has been 'doctored' by NOAA and other agencies to 'fit the theory' of global warming. The chart named "USHCN Final Adjustment Final Minus Raw" a little more than halfway down the page is the 'money shot.' It shows how much they adjusted the data, year by year, to change an overall downward slope from ~1930 to today, into an upward slope that correlates to carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere, the favored climate model of The Science.

Our friends there said just last month that PR had still not repaired all the damage that Hurricane Maria had caused to the power grid.

You are so right. Sadly, I've read that FEMA isn't doing a very good job on current disasters, so the FEMA response to Fiona could be lacking.

If they weren't watching the MSM, they probably have no idea that someone somewhere called this storm a hurricane. Puerto Ricans know what a real hurricane is like, they've had 'em before.
