Amo Samis Shawarma in Warren says it’s been busier than normal since U.S. Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed’s victory Tuesday. El-Sayed gave the Metro Detroit chain a shoutout on the campaign trail.
I hope Mr. W.D. Ehrhart was walking on air last Wednesday. I know a few people who felt the same way.
<Thoughtful people assume that voters are thoughtful people, but election after election in my lifetime, and long before my lifetime, has demonstrated that huge numbers of voters are not thoughtful or rational or capable of grasping the consequences of their vote. To say all this out loud is a kind of heresy, but history has proven me right time and time again.
So I just don’t have a whole lot of confidence that the voting public is going to behave any differently than it always has, and a lot of that voting public is going to act against its own self-interest and vote for candidates who either agree with their Felon-in-Chief or lack the courage to stand up to him.
I hope I’m wrong. I hope all those folks who think a Big Blue Wave is coming turn out to be right. How could any sane person not hope for that result? But after a lifetime of disappointments—I am 78 years old—I find it all-but-impossible to place any faith in the majority of the American voting public doing the right thing on election day.>
Todd. lol. You’re right. We don’t say you, the President’s attorney, are going to jail. We say you, Attorney General Todd Blanche, are SO SO SO SO going to Jail.
My mind is absolutely blown that for some reason it's OKAY WITH MANY that the Dems in DC think it's up to them whether Jeffries and Schumer are in. After Tuesday, a day we never even dreamed of, literally did not even imagine long enough to dismiss as impossible, we still think we have no power and the shits in DC who oversaw decades of increased homelessness, incarceration, war, genocide, etc etc etc, we still just roll over and say oh, yeah, they're gonna keep Jeffries and Schumer. And then what? Go to brunch?
Dana White said he was going to the White House today to discuss Trump's "joke" Press Secretary offer. I'm beginning to think that Trump isn't a straight shooter.
I wonder if Steven Miller realizes how lucky he is to be alive in the current times. Since a couple hundred years ago he absolutely would have been decapitated and buried in a salted grave with a holy wafer in his mouth, likely before the age of 18.

APR or Aardvarkian Pulmonary Resuscitation requires emergency breathing. It is called snoot to snoot breathing.
If your snoot could do that - you would definitely do the snoot -

I couldn’t understand what Garcia said at the end.
We need to impeach Blanche first
Why be sorry that Hakeem Jeffries will be the next Speaker?
Right? It's way better than Mike Johnson as the next Speaker.

Today, Abdul El-Sayed will be practicing shamwow law because he is on his way to clean up the Senate 🧼
That’s fucking BRILLIANT.

To all the people texting me asking if this is a real quote:
Yep.
@PollTracker2024 - Politics & Poll Tracker 📡
Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE) on Stephen Miller becoming the new White House Chief of Staff
“I think this president just wanted someone even more unlikable than him in the cuck chair in the Oval Office.”

[yeah, I found it on the X, but that is where the author put it.]
"I found it on the X"
I understand that reference
Nvidia donated $25 million to Trump's ballroom project.
"So what's a little shagging with a Chinese spy? I'd do it, wouldn't you? Everybody does that."
Sure Mr CEO might’ve done a little bit of light treason, but he made billions on that.
Everyone does that, am I right?

In medieval times, he probably be the Pope. Or head of the Inquisition torture program. Unless someone called him a witch!
BURN THE WITCH!
From your fingers to Dawg’s eyes.
As he's of Ashkenazi Jewish descent, I would say that's highly unlikely.
So he'd be somehow involved in the Spanish Inquisition as a turncoat?

Such childish name calling! Can't we all just respectfully disagree?

I don't support Trump, but I will never denigrate his supporters.
If you're a Trump supporter, "denigrate," means "to put down."
