Y'know, this would be a much better line from Mitch if he hadn't pressured R Senators into acquitting Trump - even though Mitch said Trump was guilty - by calling an acquittal vote a "personal favor" to him.

clings to his "BUT LIZ CHENEY LOST!" 'rebuttal' to all things 1/6 related. He has repeatedly declared that the WY GOP primary was a national commandment to end the committee.

The Hanukkah menorah has 9 candles.

That's a 7-branched menorah, based on the holy lampstand in the Jerusalem Temple.

The 7-branched menorah has also been appropriated by some Christians who attach Christological (and anti-Jewish) meaning to the various branches. That's probably why Pence knows about it.

You'd think that under constant pressure, in constant panic, and in constant fits of rage, would have a stroke or a heart attack, given his weight and diet and lack of exercise.

Tesla stock is modestly up, slightly overperforming the markets as a whole. A contrast to recent weeks when it's consistently underperformed the wider markets.

One assumes that's because investors are hoping Musk actually will step away from running twitter and stop sabotaging all his businesses every hour of every day.

Isn't this the guy who won declaring himself a new kind of Republican?

Either he wants a come-from-behind "win" so he can claim some kind of bogus popular mandate (release the bots!), or he wants cover for stepping aside under investor pressure and to stabilize Tesla's stock.

Either way, confident it's all bollocks.

: The French Digital Minister continues providing legal advice and warnings to Elon, who doesn't seem to be getting much in the way of good legal advice in re: the laws of countries other than the US, and he's sometimes getting pretty shaky advice on that.

Elon tries to make the World Cup all about him.

He is so much like Trump it's kind of staggering.

So apparently there's a "Barbie" movie coming out. I don't really want to know.
