Wait'll they find out they'll have to institute an income tax to make up for the loss of federal funds.

The potatoes always taste like the aluminum container. So do peas. Come to think of it, the meat comes off a tad metallic as well.

I recently read that he wasn't the initial choice for the narrator. He was a staff writer at the time. They tried a lot of actors first, but nothing clicked. I don't know if he volunteered or someone else pushed him forward, but that seemed to work out for the best.

I don't know. Rupert's got a lot of other holdings all over the place that make him lots of money. Fox News isn't supposed to be a profit center. It's a right wing propaganda dissemination machine, and it is extremely successful at what it's supposed to do.

Glorified sounds like it's doing a lot of lifting there.

Maybe a Senate resolution expressing concern about the selective use of source material.

Fox needs to be dismantled. No waiting for some company to file a lawsuit. It is in the public interest to stop lying on such a scale. Turning a large swathe of your population into deluded traitors is NOT free speech, it is a criminal conspiracy to destroy your country. Go after fundamentalist organisations too, because they are responsible for grooming children with lies and actually discouraging critical though so they are vulnerable to be lied to again as adults and to simply believe what they hear.

That traitor broke his oath of office. Time for that to have consequences.

that happened to Lincoln.

I've been thinking about it.In that sense, Johnson's impeachment, was over the race issue.He worked to undo reconstruction for former slaves.

Same thing Nixon was impeached for.Well he lied, but He was set against gains of The Civil Righs Era.

And same thing with Trump. His issues all boil down to him being a bigot.

Impeachments have all been over race issues.

These people will be approaching January 6, 2025 with the same unaware confidence as everything else in their lives. They will have been given all the detailed info from the footage to thoroughly plan the next attack, and they will know they won't be able to lose, because they're the only ones with all this information, and the other side won't see it coming.

Of course, the Capitol Police have that same access. Men in trees with guns? There'll be a drone on each one with orders to take out the target if it prepares to fire.

it should not take private organisations suing them to make this stop. One of your presidents said democracy is not a suicide pact. Deal with fascists NOW. No single constitutional right is absolute, do not let them twist your constitution as a weapon against itself. CONSEQUENCE TIME.

the people who insist on getting one with pineapple because you'd be surprised how good it is always eat all the pepperoni.

He's not stupid, he's evil, just like the rest of them.

My city put a hockey arena on the ballot three times, and it got voted down three times, so a consortium of local businesses built the arena and brought in a professional team.

Several years down the line, they sold an interest in the arena to the City Council for a dollar. The consortium retained all the profits generated by the place, and the city took over all the operating costs.

That's how it's supposed to work, right?

if government fails to act to protect the people from these evil fucks, perhaps a well organised militia should.
