NEW Stupid Republican Idea of the Day (Part 1)

You know the answer to that will always be “yes”.

Offered for context only,

And the amount of input that Fauci had in terms of awarding that grant, is about the same that Ray Crock has on the pickles being left out of my quarter pounder order.

I particularly liked “Fauci’s NIH division shipped part of a $375,800 grant” like they put grant money into boxes and mail it?

“Kroc,” not “Crock.”

Otherwise, completely agree.

It does seem to be peculiar to rich people of Northern European extraction, but many other cultures also have their version of senseless and cruel killing of animals.

Dana Milbank at WaPo explains what was really going on with that beagle puppy experiment, and largely debunks it. Something of the sort kinda-sorta did happen, but all those horrific stories are conflating two different experiments, and grotesquely exaggerating the horrific aspects beyond all reality.

ETA: I wonder about de-barking dogs to “reduce anxiety”. If they have no mouth and must scream, does that make it okay?

You lost them right here.

Why check facts when making them up is not only easier but so much fun?

A not at all WAG? No barking reduces anxiety in the other dogs.

“Charlie Kirk (R) advises succession from the union and treason.”

A couple of weeks ago I saw a cartoon that showed an elephant lamenting, “The Mexicans are taking our jobs!” and in the second frame, “Why aren’t the Mexicans taking our jobs?

Mo Brooks says he would proud if his staffers had helped to organize the “stop the steal rally”. Well, yeah, if that was the real point.

MTG says that the Capitol riot was justified by the Declaration of Independence.

Gotta hand it to her! I mean, it’s not every day that someone openly admits to supporting actual, violent, insurrection against the United States.
Don’t worry MTG, our people actually know how to build functioning gallows.

She may be a fucking blubbering idiot (okay, she absolutely is), but you can’t deny that she’s got shoe game.
