I’m sorry I don’t remember the exact phrasing; it was quoted by a podaster anyhow. There was some sort of threat, based on the claim that they weren’t actually really fired.

You think our beef is beautiful, wait til you see our mutton 🤤🍆💦

I did absolutely no homework about tariffs

Yep, it’s this bit that really got me:

While Kennedy didn’t vote against Trump’s emergency tariff powers he criticized the lack of clarity on economic impacts.

Understandable for some hillbilly gop voter to complain like that, but a senator? It’s his job to make informed decisions!

And what are the chances he knew, and didn’t vote against it regardless? Assuming Signalgate shows us the average intelligence of the current government, I’d say 50/50.

a decision between paying $600 now, or waiting until June for the generic for only $150.

God-fucking-dammit this is all so wrong. My empathy.

We can’t even go refugee because we’re god-damned pariahs.

What? No, that’s not true.

Just yesterday I heard testimony from federal workers: they got fired (possibly illegally). They barely had enough time to let the anger subside, put up their feet and crack a beer, when they got another email from their former employer: the firing was a procedural error. You’re still working for us. Come back monday morning or else.

Me too; I found it through a youtuber debunking Elon Musk’s megalomaniac projects; fitting. It does get a bit boring in Season 2 though.

Or Ronald Reagan.

Looking into how this asshole aquired his wealth, I palpably understand the phrase “too big to fail”. With some initial mom&dad money, he’s been failing since day zero yet getting continuously richer. One could say that failing (+windfall) is his business model.

Just 10 years ago people would’ve called any politician who said moronic stuff like this a sore loser. And every non-expert would see that he is actually talking about cheating himself. What happened? The sanewashing needs to stop.

Sounds like Trump has plans to make sure people like Susan Crawford don’t get elected in the future.

It’s one of their stated goals. They’ve been against making voting easier fror the disenfranchised since day one. Day zero actually. Before that. For decades. Maybe close to a century now.

Ok, thanks. 2nd is Hugh Laurie as captain of a spaceship full of tourists hurtling towards the sun.

Yep.

Protestant since 1789.

Now if it was mandatory Christian prayer time for everyone that would be an issue

AFAICS that’s exactly what it is. May not be mandatory but the phrasing “the chamber’s prayer” suggests it’s for everyone, and it’s happening in the chamber (i.e. the senate).

I couldn’t find any mention of the noon prayer, but the morning prayer is mentioned in Wikipedia: every Senate session is opened by the Senate Chaplain who has been, surprise surprise, some sort of Protestant since 1789.

The checks are Musk’s latest attempt to use his vast wealth to turn out voters ahead of Tuesday’s election. (…)
It’s the same playbook Musk deployed ahead of the November presidential election that some elections experts say broke the law around vote buying.

And we’ve been saying it back then. Plus other election interference by abusing X, and even Tesla?, and not only in the US. I am beyond exasperated. No amount of “I told you so” will make me happy anymore. Has anybody beyond experts voicing their opinions (and no shade on them I’m sure they did what they could) done anything against Musk in the past years?

(I have no idea why we’re posting pictures of photogenic captains)

On a side note (nothing to do with Cory Booker):

the chamber’s prayer at noon

I am once again flabbergasted by the separation of church & state in the US of A.

And he just happens to like the same salutes nazis like. But the leftist woke mob still calls him a nazi.

You mean you did not fill out the forms at culturalmarxism.com beforehand? 🤦

I wonder if anyone in Child Protective Services is investigating Melon Husk’s home environment for his kids.

Yeah I’d love to hear how he really treats his kids despite his talk about family values etc. The way he’s been dragging him (XÆ?) around, inadequatly clothed, probably fed too much candy etc. He wasn’t even 4 yo when that started. Psychological evaluation please. Not that anything is going to happen, but one can surmise (and hope).

my point precisely
