    Did Jesse Ventura fall down the conspiracy hole? That’s a shame. I remember when he was governor of my home state (MN). Everyone loved him back then. I guess I haven’t kept up with him since then.

      Jesse hosted a show called Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura. He did question 9/11, but I felt that was somewhat understandable at the time. It’s still weird when you think about certain things related to that day, but at this point if it was some sort of inside job we will never know. Most engineers and architects have explained away most of the things the “truthers” have said.

        If (and that’s a big if) it was, then surely the mostly redacted documents pertaining to that would be released somewhere around 2085

    Agreeing to be RFK Jr.'s vp candidate is in my eyes more questionable than a bad taste in people she had “brief affairs” with. I’ve made some questionable choices in that department in the past, and I don’t think that that’s the thing making me a bad VP pick.

    I mean, she’s a patent lawyer in Silicon Valley, can’t we find something questionable she’s actually done herself?

      Exactly this - Though I want him to have the best possible VP pick so that he’ll gobble up as many GOP votes as possible before pissing them away, signing a book deal and becoming a menace on the pundit and/or speaking tour circuits.
