It’s about time somebody started to smack George Soros down
Of course, it’s not Preznit Ladies Tee doing it, but an actual leader of the sort they only have in other countries at this time:
Russia Bans Soros Foundation As A “Threat To National Security And Constitutional Order”
Following Russia’s official retaliation to the Turkish downing of its jet a week ago, in which Putin issued an executive order limiting employment for Turkish workers, restricting Turkish organizations, and reducing the amount of bilateral trade with Ankara, perhaps a far more notable development took place earlier today when the Russian Prosecutor General’s Office issued a statement in which it recognized George Soros’s Open Society Institute and another affiliated organization as “undesirable groups”, banning Russian citizens and organizations from participation in any of their projects.
In a statement released on Monday, prosecutors said the activities of the Open Society Institute and the Open Society Institute Assistance Foundation were a threat to the foundations of Russia’s Constitutional order and national security. They added that the Justice Ministry would be duly informed about these conclusions and would add the two groups to Russia’s list of undesirable foreign organizations.

The turkey went in a half-hour ago, the sweet potatoes and stuffing are ready to go in when the turkey is closer to done, and I made a pumpkin pie last night. Just need to make some stuffed celery and plop the cranberry sauce out of the can. :)
So Adele shows up at an Adele-impersonator contest…
…and awesomeness breaks out all over:

Ace brings teh funneh:
Oxford Don Stephen Potter introduced the world to the principles of Gamesmanship, the way to win at games by resort to cheap ploys which were very close to cheating without being technically cheating. He later expanded his inquiries into the general field of “Lifemanship,” the discipline of embracing life in a dickish and hostile spirit, sabotaging social rivals without quite breaching social etiquette.
Given that the progressive elder-children-yet-not-quite-adults you’ll be encountering this Thanksgiving (who I will henceforth refer to as “grownchildren”) will be armed to the teeth with Vox explainers and Obamacare propaganda, I herewith humbly submit these first sketches of a new branch of Lifemanship I call “Thankgivingmanship,” which I define as the gentle art of insulting the stupid without alerting them to the fact that they’ve been insulted at all.
It is the goal of the dedicated Thanksgivingman, then, to achieve the sublime art of giving offense without offense being taken.
How is this not a sign of mental incapacity?
He’s clearly delusional. Isn’t that grounds for his involuntary removal from office? Civilization can’t wait:
Obama: I’ll Rebuke ISIS By Talking About Climate Change
Barack Obama said during a press conference on Tuesday that his plans to attend a climate change summit in December will serve as a “powerful rebuke” to ISIS, which took credit for brutal terrorist attacks in Paris that killed 130 people and injured hundreds more.
While standing alongside French president François Hollande in a joint news conference at the White House, Obama explained that his attendance at next month’s World Climate Summit will put ISIS in its place.
Do as I say, not as I do
Not to mention this inconvenient actuality:
Yeah, Hillary…tell me again how women (or girls, as the case may be) who say they’ve been raped should be given the benefit of the doubt.
