Republicans elected Brent Taylor, who has a degree in mortuary science from Northwest Mississippi Community College and worked as a funeral director, instead of, among more clearly Trump taint tasting options, this guy:

"[Jeremy] Thompson was a retired U.S. Army Sergeant First Class who worked in military intelligence and special operations support. He also worked as a volunteer firefighter, EMT, and reserve deputy sheriff. As of the 2026 elections, Thompson was executive director of the Special Operations Association of America and a restaurant owner. Thompson's campaign website said he ran because "he believes our best days are still ahead of us. His campaign was focused on making life more affordable, holding Washington accountable, and supporting America’s military, veterans, and first responders."

A good week for democracy. Most of Trump's choices not only lost, but lost big. No recounts will save their flabby butts from being scraped out of their Congressional seat.

Remember kids! Vote Blue, No Matter Who! (OK, except Fetterman)

Have to think Jack Chick was a major influence at some point in this guy’s life.

Andy can still lead a rich, fulfilling life as the drunk at the end of the bar with a stupid opinion on everything that everyone wishes would just shut the fuck up.

They will get free drinks until they sound funny or their face hits hits the bar.

He looks like Sir Robin bravely running away.

I wonder if Andy knows how heavy that sword would be in real life?

eddi-SABH's avatar

Three to five pounds. The question is can he swing it without killing the guys behind him?

Andy Ogles can now pursue his Big Gay SuperBowl Jihad, funded by MAGA rube email grinding.

Andy Ogles will have no place on the ballot in November, due in large part to Andy Ogles's "have no place" habit of drawing an exclusionary circle that contains only himself.

Oops, Andy! You excluded your own voters this time!

OMG!!!! This is such f*cking good news...the bit about ogles anyway.

I'm in TN...he's not my rep. Lucky me, I've got dim birdshit, but man, oh man, I am so happy to hear that dipshit lost. Now if we could just get rid of the sh!t stain that is marshie blechburn.

And Yay!! for Justin Pearson!!

Love that Trump is now pissing on him, saying that his opponent was his "real pick".

Wow

Is that really happening?

eddi-SABH's avatar

It frequently does. Trump likes to throw losers under the bus.

Yep did it to Randy Feenstra in Iowa.

Love out in er..Utah? Too. Kissed his ass, lost, and it was because she did not love him enough.

I hope she enjoyed that tremendously. I hope they all do

So, what do you think the under is on this ridiculous piece of shit lasting fewer than ten minutes in chain mail and riding a goddamn horse?

eddi-SABH's avatar

First you need to find a Republican horse.

I want to watch him whipping a real broadsword around one-handed.

I bet he'd make Hegseth look athletic.

Oh Glory be! With so very little for us Tennesseans to be happy about in the world, this stunning news - that perhaps the fiery red parts of this state are not as hateful and stupid as Andy Ogles obviously thought - well it's just lovely. Just FYI, the district includes the Tennessee border counties that birthed the Klan.

That’s not a Christian crusader, that’s KKK whose conehead was too tall…
