"Buy bitcoin" - really WTF? Imaginary currency with no value except for the fact that grifters are placing bets on some sucker down the line buying when they want to cash out.

Of course, it makes about as much sense as his construct that the imaginary sky friend will give a shit about him or his spawn.

John Scott has a deep history in the field of vote suppression.

Just not this one.

In 2016, the Real John Scott, late of the Buffalo Sabres, was a goon for the Arizona Coyotes but a great guy as goons go. That year, he became the subject of a goofy effort by fans to get him elected to the NHL All Star Game- and he not only qualified, he wound up leading all vote getters!

The Very Serious league poobahs were not amused. The Coyotes traded him, and the receiving team tried dumping him in the minors to disqualify him from playing. But the swell of fan support changed their minds, and he not only made it to the contest, but was named his team's captain, scored two goals (more than he'd tallied in the entire season before that), and was named All-Star MVP despite not even being on the ballot.

At least Manchin and Sinema didn't allow THAT to be filibustered.

Shocking how all it takes to bring down democracy in this country is for someone in power to establish a loyal base and then just do it. Kind of amazing this house of cards lasted this long.

It ain't over yet. And Y'all Qaeda is a minority, and if they think that their notions about snowflake liberals just sitting by and letting it happen are real then they actually are more delusional than they appear.

I'll take "the state is closer than we all think, and now they have to ratfuck extra hard because a big Dem turnout could throw a huge wrench in the machinery" for 500, Alex.

As a registered Demoncrat (that's what I'm called when asked), I actually liked Greg when we got rid of that shit for brain named Rick "I Love Fucking Goats Perry." Now what has happened is Greg believes he is invincible and the Lt. Governor who is named Dannie Scott Goeb but he likes to call himself Dan Patrick is the Texas version of Doug Ducey.

The recent re-districting was one of the worst things I have ever seen done. All those Texas is going to turn blue people really need to get a fucking clue.

Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi stopped by to say "that's cool, man" and then fucked off to vote more money for Israel.
