There was zero need for any of this, and I'm going to need people to maybe begin repeating these facts as often as Republicans screech about (nonexistent!) voter fraud when they are pushing back against Confederate lies.
Republicans are winning the NARRATIVE war because of Whie Democratic flaccidity for a couple of decades before Hakeem Jeffries ever thought aping that behavior was a good idea.
Democrats have truth and fact on their side, but by and large they are still not using them effectively to rebut Republican slop.
Thank God Spider-Man was there. If someone irresponsible had shown up, things might have gotten ugly.
Of course, Jake Lang is already out on bail for his antics locally last winter when he barely got out of town unharmed. He just had a court date in July, which he was able to postpone until October. We have good reason to revoke his bail and keep him in jail.
We probably won't; Minneapolis leadership is definitely of the sort that thinks we can placate Nazis and they'll stop bothering us.
There was a clip yesterday of him yelling at a reporter (female, of course) who asked him what he wanted to say to American farmers who were worried about Trump helping out Argentina.
Ranchers, part of the "ordinary" rich, should have figured out long ago that TACO & Co. will fuck over everyone, the ordinary rich included, for the uber rich.
Ranchers, even if rich, do something concrete and tangible.
The people running the Trump Show are finance guys. They buy and sell money and debt in the abstract. Nothing they do is concrete and tangible, and they hate and resent the concrete and tangible. That way lies actual work, which they fear and loathe.
They will absolutely fuck over anyone and everyone who does anything concrete and tangible. Such people are minions at best, subhuman. They think they themselves have transcended lowly homo sapiens and have become some kind of super-species.
They really do think that. They talk about it, and they're not kidding.
Well of course you want to introduce trade schools into elementary classes - those tiny screws aren't going to tighten themselves and little nimble fingers are perfect! Hell, you don't even need all 10!
"‘The facility, which was secretly completed during the Obama administration, can house dozens of people for up to multiple weeks. It’s buried more than 60 feet underneath the White House complex and built to withstand a nuclear blast’."
I took wood shop in eighth grade. It didn’t keep me from going to college.
This is the worst Mad TV reboot yet.
Any Republican saying “birds of a feather” is the biggest “accusation is a confession” that ever was.
Its particularly funny when its a black guy trying to defend the party of White Supremacy.
The park service concession kiosks on the Mall sell beer. You’re not supposed to stroll around with it but they do, in fact, sell beer.
Additional context because it's not in the post:
Why did Linda get to be CEO of WWE?
Because they had to fire her husband Vince, who had built the company from a regional thing into a multi-billion dollar empire.
Why did they fire him?
Raping female employees.
So yeah, she knows rapists.
"But the problem with character attacks is that they only work if your candidate is not a pen-stealing serial scumbag like Ken Paxton,...
Repunks:
"He's OUR scumbag!"
Honestly, the allegations she rattled off sound like republican candidate minimum requirements.
I feel much more stupider for reading their talking points.
OT: "Patrick." "Swindle."

HE STONK!!!
Oh, if only Fukui were here to give his most entertaining take on this race.
"Bell End," "Wanker," "Useless as a marzipan dildo," I can only imagine the British invective he'd be spraying all over like a busted fire sprinkler.
If I could resurrect him but the conditions were that he is only here for one day, this would be what I would want him to non-comment on.
On the other hand, maybe I'd save it for the expiration and/or imprisonment of Assface.

OT: Trump and the Republicans are hard at work destroying the American beef industry and killing as many Americans as possible.
"MYSTERY MEAT: Trump says he struck a deal to flood the U.S. with cheaper foreign beef.
There’s just one problem: He refuses to tell Americans which countries the beef is coming from.
And U.S. ranchers are furious."

I'm what I'm sure is totally unrelated news, they're rounding up wild horses on public land.
And selling them to slaughter.
There was a clip yesterday of him yelling at a reporter (female, of course) who asked him what he wanted to say to American farmers who were worried about Trump helping out Argentina.
Those "furious" ranchers all voted for this shit. Too fucking bad.
FAFO!
They chew horses, don't they?

Bovine University drop outs.
I heard most of it was going to fast food restaurants rather than supermarkets.

It's another backdoor bailout for Milei.
This is one of those moments wherein I am damned glad that I've been a vegetarian for almost thirty years.
Y'all be very careful what you're buying out there.
Get yourselves a good pocket-tester cooking thermometer, and cook all meat to Well Done.
Linda McMahon is one of the most disgusting human beings on the planet. Miserable fucking creature who doesn't want little children educated.
That contemptible beast needs *redacted* right in her *redacted* face.
Have Linda McMahon and Betsy DeVos ever been photographed together? Are they the trial run of the pre-Dolly the sheep cloning experiment?
She didn’t care about the children whose molestation she abetted, so why would she care about any others?
Well of course you want to introduce trade schools into elementary classes - those tiny screws aren't going to tighten themselves and little nimble fingers are perfect! Hell, you don't even need all 10!

Nope. Not any more.
