Low information voters gravitate towards the loudest and most hateful. Empathy and compassion are complete losers. Anything that involves math or rational thought is useless. The only thing that motivates most voters is hate.
The Pro-Life party, amirite? Proving once again, they only care about babies until the moment they’re born, then fuck 'em they’re on their own now.
Now, let’s see how many of them campaign on the free formula they made available for their districts. #VotedNoTookTheDough
How stupid can people get?
This is the money quote, IMHO
”One type of person thinks everything in crypto is a scam. Another type of person thinks 99% of crypto is a scam, but 1% is insanely important. I’m in that later group”
Does this person think that 99% of the time when someone calls you and asks you to buy gift cards to pay your taxes it’s a scam, but 1% of the time it isn’t? Does this person think that if a strange woman texts you and convinces you to buy something from her as an investment, it’s legit 1% of the time? That’s dangerous thinking that guarantees you’re falling for a scam, because when YOU get the “to good to be true” offer, you’ll gladly convince yourself that you’ve found the 1% unicorn and aren’t getting scammed, even when the scam has more red flags than a red flag store. Like cryptocurrency.
ETA: Over the past several weeks, I’ve been subjected to many TV commercials run by MAGA candidates, trying to convince the voters that the other Republican candidates are really radical socialists that are best friends with Joe Biden and George Soros. But when I listened carefully at the end, these commercials were paid for by a group called Crypto Innovations. So my tax dollars may be going into a Ponzi scheme. Great.
Look on the bright side: very possibly the funders are just a run-of-the-mill scam outfit that decided to put “crypto” in their name as a lure to help fleece the suckers. Kind of like how early 20th-century companies named their brands “X-Ray” this and “Radium” that, to sound all impressive and scientific. (Even if what they were selling was cigars or boot polish or condoms.)
Or the nineties when they added “2000” to everything?
“Toilet Bowl Cleaner 2000!”
“Do you guys just put the word ‘Quantum’ in front of everything?”
Don’t forget the days of “turbo laser stealth” everything.
Not quite as good because it passed 414 to 9 was a companion bill allowing SecAg to ease WIC qualifications for people to buy formula as well as requiring manufacturers to have in place contingency plans in case of a recall.
Among the nine were Biggs and Gosar of Arizona and don’t think I’m going to bring that up.
The remaining seven were the usual suspects, Lauren Boebert, Thomas Massie, Clay Higgins, Matt Gaetz, Chip Roy, Louie Gohmert, and Marjorie Taylor Greene.
What exactly are they thinking? Biggs especially. Does he think he’s doing trump’s I mean god’s work? I never see anything and I mean anything positive from him. It’s all “against”. He does less work in congress than Empty-G and that’s difficult!
I have no idea. With almost every other Republican voting for it, the Nay voters were not apparently being good soldiers for the party leadership. I am outside his district by a quarter mile, thank Og, so I suppose I don’t really have a dog in that fight but he’s in my city and my state, so, yeesh.
I looked it up after posting and even Madison Cawthorn voted for it.
Thanks for posting that - hilarious and perfectly acted.
Channeling Mitch?
Not Cawthorn? Or did he miss another vote?
ETA: he actually voted? and voted for it? Wow.
…“In places like Washington D.C.,” fetuses are “burned to power the light’s of the city’s homes and streets,” claimed [Americans United for Life President] Catherine Glenn Foster, who had, just minutes before, sworn not to lie under oath. The GOP-summoned witness let loose the wild and utterly false accusation that municipal electrical companies are powered by incinerated fetuses…
You’re lucky. We tried to vote him out. The democrat challenger got 42% of the vote, but Andy Pander interprets his 58% as a mandate and he doesn’t need to represent the 42%.
WTF?
First they complain about high energy prices, then they complain about our solution to high energy prices. Make up your mind, MAGAts!
The crazies are trying to claim that the Buffalo shooter is a furry.
Doesn’t sound very efficient. Especially considering all that water that would inhibit burning.
Burn, baby, burn.
