They’ll drop $2M on a missile like it’s pocket change but act like keeping a welder training program alive is “too much spending.” Make it make sense.

A perfect ex. of how the goal posts have moved to an insane place. If a world leader sent out 2,262 social posts in 132 days, including many pre-dawn, you would say what? Well, what you might say is, this is Alice in Wonderland stuff. In America, it's called Tuesday.

Serious question, all caps on purpose: LAST NIGHT THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES SUGGESTED JOE BIDEN DIED IN 2020 AND WAS REPLACED BY A ROBOT. HE WASN'T JOKING OR JOSHING AROUND. WHY THE FUCKING FUCK FUCK WAS EVERYONE ALL IN ON BIDEN-IS-SENILE, BUT THIS SHIT GOES IGNORED AND UNCOVERED?

A prediction: Pacers-Thunder is going to be a phenomenal NBA Finals. Another prediction: Two small market teams is not a formula for big viewership. Final prediction: If it goes seven games. Game 7 will draw more viewers than the College Football Playoff National Championship game.

BREAKING: Joni Ernst cracked a death joke about cutting Medicaid. The Des Moines Register said “bet” and printed it like a fucking tombstone. Front page. No walking this back. This is how legacies collapse. The GOP doesn’t need opponents—they’re burying themselves.

ICE is out here detaining every immigrant under the sun, and the rich are about to learn the hard way that their summer homes don’t staff themselves.

“Immigrant” is not a dirty word in San Diego. San Diego is a city that transcends borders. It has deep ties to Tijuana. Ours is the busiest land border crossing in the western hemisphere, with 50 million+ coming and going.

The point of anonymous is that you can be anonymous too. You choose your actions and carry them out yourself and if other anons agree they’ll join you. It’s not a platform to demand help but to provide it. If you want to see something done, do it. It’s that simple.

I absolutely remember this play for a couple reasons. One, it probably is the most iconic play in CFB (Doug Flutie on line 1) but also.... Just a couple minutes later there was a news flash on the screen about Paul Walker being killed in a car crash.😢 www.facebook.com/share/r/191G...

They’re not banning books because they’re dangerous—They’re banning them because they expose the truth. 📚 Erased tells the history they tried to bury—& now they’re coming for it. If it’s “too dangerous to teach,” you need to read it. ⚠️Read it before they ban it for good: stan.store/gxldsociety/...
