The brother of Jeff Bezos’ mistress, Lauren Sanchez, supplied the couple’s racy texts to the National Enquirer, multiple sources inside AMI, the tabloid’s parent company, told The Daily Beast.

Another source who has been in extensive communication with senior leaders at AMI confirmed that Michael Sanchez first supplied Bezos’ texts to the Enquirer.

AMI has previously refused to identify the source of the texts, but a lawyer for the company strongly hinted at Sanchez’s role during a Sunday morning interview on ABC.

I have returned to provide midwestern wisdom from a middle class, working white black man.

1. Candace Owens is a great example of what happens when you don't read anything outside of curated social media feeds and some wikipedia sentences. I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and say she didn't mean she'd be fine if Hitler had simply killed Jews in his own country instead of invading neighbors. Fine, I'll give you that. But how the fuck do you argue Hitler was a globalist?
:mindblown

2. I don't like Kamala Harris. I'll vote for her if she's the nominee but her record as a prosecutor isn't appealing to me at all. And frankly I feel like if she was white we'd be seeing some think pieces from black authors about how she built her career punitively punishing black and brown people in California.

3. I've spent the last 5-6 months trying not to laugh as certain people I know told me that the Trump tax cut was going to provide them with huge tax cuts. I explained the issue many times and people did not believe me; part of this is just the typical bias against experts/professionals, but I think another part was the everlasting belief certain people have in Trump. They don't see the grift, even when it's right in their face.

Well it's tax return season and now people are realizing...yea, you got hosed. My parents are pretty happy, as business owners. Rich people I work for are happy. I'm not mad. But normal people (especially single/no kids)? You got fucked, especially if you live in a state like California or NJ or NY. I fucking told you distinguished mentally-challenged fellows.
 :neogaf

4. Speaking of the grift...I think the true damage to Trump is that the midwest (overall) has seemingly realized they got conned. Republicans were decimated throughout the midwest during the midterms, especially in Wisconsin where tariffs are killing multiple industries. Trump has no path to 270 without the midwest.

The car debt bomb is going off soon

Quote
A record 7 million Americans are 90 days or more behind on their auto loan payments, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York reported Tuesday, even more than during the wake of the financial crisis era.

Economists warn this is a red flag. Despite the strong economy and low unemployment rate, many Americans are struggling to pay their bills.

“The substantial and growing number of distressed borrowers suggests that not all Americans have benefited from the strong labor market,” economists at the New York Fed wrote in a blog post.

A car loan is typically the first payment people make because a vehicle is critical to getting to work, and someone can live in a car if all else fails. When car loan delinquencies rise, it is a sign of significant duress among low-income and working-class Americans.

The comment had more to do with the ridiculousness you exhibit around the topic.

A threshold of irreversible changes in ten years =/= humankind is going to be wiped out in ten years.

First it was the facts of the science you struggled with, now its seemingly the interpretations..There's a pattern lol

If pointing out to a moron that just because climate models aren't 100% accurate 100% of the time that doesn't call into question the science of the greenhouse effect is "semantics," I guess you're right lol.

I was never a Limbaugh guy. I remember liking him while Bush Sr. was in office and he would crush Bush for decisions he made. So, I mistakenly thought this was someone that thought for himself and wasn't a party guy.

But, then when the 1992 election rolled around he was beating the drum for him the entire election. Like the previous 2 years had never happened.  I think he might've even done some photo-ops with him. That's when I figured out he was a hackfraud and never listened again.

It just illustrates the power of radio/audio in creating intimate relationships with the audience, that he can still have so many listeners after so many years of hypocrisies and personal allegations.
