Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

Last night I dreamed that John Fetterman bullied me into donating blood for the war with Iran, then left me to get sucked dry. My dad doesn't want me playing with him anymore.

Markwayne Mullin is one of the dumbest people in a government of true idiots. Just a real dipshit among dipshits. A grade-a nimrod.

Dude sounds like a dipshit elementary kid trying to explain to the teacher why he didn't do his book report.

Next time someone asks you to sum up MAGA in 30 seconds or less, show them this clip of Andrew Tate explaining why he doesn't read books.

If the government gets to decide if you have them, they're not human rights.

They killed 180 children and their teachers in a double-tap strike on a school. The girls were 7 to 12 years old.

Also, Trump has a history of not paying for shit, so why would anyone believe him?

I wish Dem leadership showed this much emotion. Any emotion, really.

I'd raise you another $100 that they have a CSAM thread.

Only in an Op/Ed can a person make whatever claim they want without presenting any evidence or citations, and be hailed as a bold truth-teller.

Live in Maine. Not a fan, but I know why people like him.

1.) He's very accessible -- shows up at all flavor of public events, protests, etc. He's shown up to University of Maine twice, Bangor (smaller urban town), Portland (larger urban town), etc. Chances are if you're...

I'm exhausted by all the efforts to rewrite the history of the 2022 US Senate primary in Pennsylvania, with folks insisting "we told you so!" as to Fetterman, that Conor Lamb was always the better choice, and generally ignoring Malcolm Kenyatta's historic candidacy.

So let me say a few things. 🧡1/

When I was building my high school history curriculum, I was super stoked to expose kids to the women who were anti-suffrage. A whole story there that is never discussed. Alas, I never had the opportunity, but I have it all saved just in case.

LINDSEY GRAHAM: Our goal is to make sure Iran cannot become again the largest state sponsor of terrorism.

WELKER: Does the the president have a plan to guarantee that happens?

GRAHAM: No. It's not his job.

DS9 "The Search, Part II"; Garak in the Replimat, with caption: and the only explanation I can find

DS9 "The Search, Part II"; Garak in the Replimat, with caption: and the only explanation I can find

DS9 "The Search, Part II"; Garak in the Replimat, leaning in, with caption: is that our leaders have simply gone insane.

The Islamic regime is claiming more than 50+ β€œmartyrs” were killed at a girls school in Minab …except they forgot to mention that the school is literally part of the Asif corps of the IRGC on base, which was targeted. Not only that, it’s also being used as an IRGC admin, command and medical facility at this time.

Meanwhile, Anti-regime media has said no students were killed nor was the school itself the target.

Those school girls were soldiers and therefore deserved to be obliterated by a US/Israeli bomb, but also they're not dead but also it'd be good if they were dead

indiscriminately bombing Iran is not a distraction of the Epstein files, it is a validation of their significance as more than a sex pest hunt. this is what elite impunity for morons looks like. a school turned to rubble on a whim.

most shockingly of all, the alien craft was reportedly adorned with a sort of bumper sticker that said "Earth Hoes Cant Fuck"

So the women’s hockey team got fresh pasta at a swanky restaurant in Milan with Stanley Tucci and the men’s team got cold McDonalds in a room blaring Toby Keith where the President didn’t even eat with them. Y’all idk if you’ve noticed but the patriarchy sucks FOR YOU.
