“Hey Mitch. Fort Campbell in Kentucky? Really nice base you got there. Probably supports a lotta Kentucky businesses. It’s be a shame… if something happened to its funding.”

There. Problem solved.

“Oh, one more thing, Mitch. Secretary Buttigieg told me he was going through the books at his Department, and saw some ‘irregularities’, his word, not mine, in the staffing numbers salaries in 2017 through 2020. He suggested to me I approve an internal audit, because, as the GOP likes to put forward, accountability on government is paramount. You’d think that’s a good idea, right Mitch?”

Reality Winner finally freed. This is so awesome.

He went literal "Deal with it" meme about Putin. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is the petty shit that I love.

So, first...2 infrastructure bills on deck.



And then I read this....



And there's a morsel of a modicrum of hope.

But still, not holding my breath.

I have 0.00% faith that Sinema would vote to remove the filibuster to fund the government when not removing the filibuster to fund the government would ensure her so much more attention.

Yeah. There seems to be some rhyme or reason behind Manchin's general assholery. He has some weird, long-outdated view about what "moderate" means, and he's committed to being that, even if it's stupid.

But Sinema makes no sense at all.

Biden is getting raked by everyone right now.

He's lucky as shit this isn't 2024.

lemme guess... conservatives are suddenly are in favor of wanton spending to help brown people from a poor country?

But I was told Biden was a war-monger. No?

No matter what he did, the Republicans would find a way to criticize. That's obvious.

But seriously all of the "liberal media" is taking shots at him segment after segment.

It was always going to end like this no matter how meticulous the plan. I personally wish it were cleaner, but pulling out of Afghanistan should be front and center here and yet, the media isn't discussing that.

It's just "how much $$$ can we make from this disaster porn?"

Yep, my Trump loving friends on FB who disappeared for a year are suddenly roaring back to life at the complete failure of Biden's administration, calling for impeachment. Somehow they aren't responding to people posting video of Trump saying, just a month ago, that he orchestrated the withdrawal from Afghanistan in a way that Biden can't undo it. Supposedly that was on Trump's website yesterday and suddenly disappeared.

Not sure about Trump's website, but the Republicans scrubbed it from their website yesterday.

Oh, and triple-fuck Liz Cheney.

To his credit, at least:

While I love Kinzinger having the balls to call out the GOP bullshit, I can't fathom how he remains a Congressman within the Party. Does he think he has a stronger message fighting them from within the Party? To me, it shows that you completely understand and agree your Party is deplorable, but not deplorable to leave.

I don't know how he reckons with it either.

He's a Lt Col pilot in the ANG and he's been ostracized by his family, so he has some brains, but I can't figure it out.

I was in his district earlier this summer and if the yard signs were any indication, he's going be very much primaried from the right.

Oh Hi everyone, remember me? Hope all is well.

How is Joe doing?


Opps LOL

Ban this fucker.

Ignore is your friend. No idea what he said but, I am on board w/ that.

It's comically sad that this dumb fuck had to wait eight months to have anything even remotely controversial enough to come in here with his "gotchas" and even this is gonna be something that no one remembers or gives a fuck about in a month.

ETA: Though like TB said, use the ignore. You can always choose to click on a link to read the posts if you ever feel like feeding the trolls.

Kind of like a supporter of Hitler making fun of Adenauer's taxation policies.

So stupid. And the 'remember me'? So narcissistic.

This will be forgotten already, unlike a bunch of other real issues going on.

Crazy that a PSU fan wasn’t attracted to something until it was 20+ years old.

Ha!

The cons are so fucking pathetic that it's almost pitiable.

Atleast Paterno knew when it was time to just go away for good.

I think he just had nothing left to live for once he was no longer allowed to look the other way while people who worked for him raped kids. :(

Is Christian Hackenburg still in the league?

Actually, no. He lives in south Jersey with his very, very cute wife and coaches HS football. If you subscribed to NJ.com you'd know this.

Lol.

Swamping pays off sometimes.

I realize we're not talking about people who typically act in good faith, but I honestly don't understand how many try to argue the "Biden has dementia" nonsense.

Because he's an old democrat. That's it. Facebook meme level thinking.

How many hours of footage of Biden speaking are out there? If you had that much footage of anyone speaking, I guarantee you could cherry pick 10 second clips and make anyone seem like maybe their mental faculties are impaired. I've seen lots of clips that out of context I could understand people thinking he has dementia. Then you watch a long interview and he seems fine. What cracks me up is the same people didn't have a problem with Trump's rambling word salads where he couldn't complete a thought, slurred speech, etc... Not to mention all the times Biden stops speaking to avoid a stutter. He has been a bit of a loose cannon with speaking gaffes, and I think if anything, he has improved in that manner.

My job title is Communications Specialist, and i can rarely make it through a zoom or a phone call without fucking something up. Granted, I'm not terribly good at my job.

The two sources say they were in direct and regular contact with Republican Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, Mo Brooks of Alabama, Madison Cawthorn of North Carolina, Louie Gohmert of Texas, and Lauren Boebert of Colorado—fierce Trump allies who have since the January 6 riots downplayed their violence while complaining about the treatment of those who’ve been arrested for committing crimes that day. The sources also say former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, a former House Freedom Caucus member, was deeply involved as well.

Sleepy Joe needs some of Trump's adderall.
