Focus on how much America sucks, how it’s a sexist racist hellscape. How trannies groping kids is normal and men belong in the girl’s restroom. Try to convince us that ugly art and people are actually beautiful. Divide us by race. Cops are bad. Stop arresting criminals and open up the prisons. Focus on the environment over cheap energy and talk about abortion all the time. Treat illegal aliens better than citizens. Censor everyone who criticizes them. Just accept it when corporations export your job overseas. Really focus on their core beliefs and double and triple down on them. It’s important that Americans learn to judge people on the color of their skin not the content of their character.

Put them up against Beetlejuice, Hank the Drunk Angry Dwarf, Gary the Retard, Crackhead Bob, Daniel Carver, and Ass Napkin Ed.

I had trouble figuring out who to root for but I enjoyed the show.

Uh oh! They must not have steers where squistion lives.

Anyway, hoping Tulsi gets in. Too many neocons around in the GOP. They'd need to be cowed. Meanwhile, the Dems are mostly useless Borg-minded scum all voting in unison in opposition to everything.

SotH would include Henry Clay, who I remember as super impressive but forget 90% of the details from grade 11. She was talented and effective. And in 2008 you must be mentioning the bank bailout bill. Good Grief. She was a corrupt insider corporate hack to the very end, which isn't to say she wasn't good at it.

How about just stop giving a sh*t about an incident that happened two years ago? By the way, it looks to me that the thread was deleted, I couldn't find it yesterday. It may not be. Since the search engine here sucks, that could be the problem instead.

HT has a bone to pick with me for urging him to stop doxxing Rusty two years ago.

We're both right. LGBTQ wasn't used in the Geek Club until 2016.... post Obergfell. But, in fact, there is a post by Spotted Owl dated to 2006 where he quotes some Portand person who was already using that term way back then. For the most part the T was kept under wraps until the other LGB stuff went though.

As I recall, it was LGB until Obergefell and the T and the other 234625647657 letters were added on later. I may have that wrong. Let me look for stuff around here that was timestamped from pre-Obergefell.

So you believe this is Gutterboy?

Trannies are not deployable, they cost the military huge $$$ to provide their treatment, and then they cost the VA huge $$$ for the rest of their lives after they leave service.

The Girlfriend "hasn't posted here in years." Here I've been assuming he's Gutterboy because the posting style has been indistinguishable but Gutterboy has always owned his posts and has no history of denying that he is whatever the latest alias he uses before. Is Gutterboy posting under something else? Maybe I'm out of the loop, I'm not around nearly as much as I used to be to keep up with things.

It would be worth every penny if we got them all spayed and neutered.

Rusty is trying to convince us the side that is winning is the one having a mental breakdown, not the side that is crushed and screaming and irrelevant. Let me self-diagnose because he is right, I did notice on Monday something very off with my mental state. This was not a typical Monday. I was beaming, happy, had an extra pep in my step. I couldn't wait to talk to my colleagues of all the wonderful things that had happened over the weekend. Mondays have no business being so cheery and wonderful, but this past one was. Since then, I'm just all sunny and happy all the time. Each day I come home and check the news to find that everything in the world is getting better and better. Wow, another royal flush. I've been dealt a royal flush eight straight days. Amazing. Will I be disappointed if I only get a Full House or four of a kind tomorrow? Life is supposed to be a roller coaster of ups and downs but I've never been this high before nor for this long. Apparently the name of this condition I have is LDS in bold, all caps, size 72 with a emoji. I don't even know what LDS stands for besides one thing but ... no, I didn't join the Mormon church... Something else. Maybe Love Defeats Stress ? Laugh at Death's Stupidity ?

I don't tune in because there are only so many hours in a day that I can dedicate to this stuff anymore but judging by Rusty's posts, maybe I should. She's certainly making his mental breakdown more intense, entertaining and hilarious; you'd have to think that hers are probably just as juicy. I don't need the schadenfreude so much as the wins, because I'm already at maximum satisfaction and happiness anyway. Last week many of the intractable problems the country has been dealing with melted away and its advocates are routed and in full retreat. Its such a good feeling for the future of the country going forward, everything will be improving. But the schadenfreude is such a nice bow because over here we have the vanquished a$$hole who voted in and caused all the problems in the first place and they are screaming like banshees, watching helplessly in defeat as their wicked life's work gets unwoven out of the fabric of the country. I'd like to see Pax Romana for the remaining 30 or so years of my life but I know politics is cyclical and shItbags like Rusty will get another bite at the apple to either re-spread their cancer or come to their senses every two years. In the meantime, the country is improving by the hour and hopefully put in a place with a new baseline of what norms and beliefs will be standard moving forward with not just executive orders but legislative and judicial wins.

Progressives hate their own culture and readily embrace any alternative that hates it as much as they do.

Trump is getting sh!t done by taking on deeply seeded decades-old problems and not settling for half measures to placate the sh*tbags who are just going to scream anyway. He's going to need legislative and judicial wins along the way to really make these changes stick permanently. This is just what 2025 needs and by the time he's done, he's on a trajectory to be the most significant president of our lifetime.

There are almost no Nazis left and what few there are get treated like Adolph Hitler Campbell's dad, who lost custody of his son, in part, because he named the poor boy 'Adolph Hitler Campbell.' Being a wife beater didn't help. You could probably fit all the world's Nazis in the empty seats of a Biden rally. But when the left screams "Nazi! Nazi! Naz!" you're supposed to show fear.

That's fair. Trump is trying to do the right thing on birthright citizenship but will likely lose in court. It will help with elections though as it is a popular position. While I agree with him that birthright citizenship is foolish, I read the 14th amendment the same way that you do. Ignoring the words of the Constitution or any laws has been the province of liberal judges and justices; they just find the results they want and patch it over with creative interpretations. To me it'd take a Constitutional Amendment and the Dems will never allow that. Maybe with a court decision in hand, he can beat the Dems over the head with the issue going forward. Trump is doing things that haven't been done before because he's fed up with the establishment of both parties and has been forced to endure legal hell in order to get to this point. So far he's talking 80/20 issues the hardest. He's more effective this time because he's been through the process once already and knows where to look, who's reliable, and who's a snake. If he gets too far over his skis, his coalition will break down since the number of people he can afford to lose in either house of Congress can be counted on one hand. It was the Democrats that put Trump on trial over trivial things namy times over. They would have expanded and stacked the Supreme Court and made no ID / mail-in voting the law of the land if they could have overcome the filibuster... and it was only Manchin and Sinema that prevented them from doing so.... both are gone. Now, they're going to reacquaint themselves with a love the filibuster and the Republicans are not doing to them what now 100% of what's left of them from last time wanted to do to the Republicans.

"fascist" "Nazi" and quite a few more. Its their coping mechanism to lash out. Its also their prerogative to use the words as they don't know what any of the words mean anyway. They've turned it up to 11 for so long that you have to figure that eventually they'll wear themselves out. Or not. Not my problem. All the mental breakdowns they're suffering from are imaginary and self induced anyways. They'll deal with it then eventually they'll get over it.

This. Otherwise, the wait is ten times longer and the bill is ten times more.

All the moderates have left their party. It looks to me like the Dems have got their insider corporate overlord faction that runs things. Sometimes they battling it with and sometimes making concessions to their woke idiot Antifa/terrorist faction. These two sides are further buttressed by homeless neocon never-Trumpers standing in the cold outside with a tin cup in their hand. Whatever they have, it's for them to figure out. They are left to scream and cry and lie and try to obstruct as much as they can, hoping the slim majorities will alienate a few REpublicans now and again to toss them a bone and thwart the president's agenda.

At first, I was disappointed that Kayleigh McEnany didn't get the job back, but this lady is performing well out there too.

It's not a Biden EO that TikTok is dealing with, this is a full-on law that passed Congress and got that house plant occupying the presidency's signature. Trump has 90 days to force TiKTok to make a deal that gets it sold or he shuts it down. Its situations like this when he has insane leverage that he enjoys negotiating. He's told us that he'll be making pretty harsh demands of TIKTok if they want to stay in business in the US. If they don't meet those demands or negotiations break down, he'll shut them down. So, we'll see. We're at most 80 days away from finding out how this is resolved.
