NEW Stupid Republican Idea of the Day (Part 2)

Trapped in a phone booth?

I’ve put this in the “Evil” thread already, but…

Sigh…

If you were wondering what caused the fatal beating of Trye Nichols, Anthony D’esposito (R-NY) has the answer: wokeness and movements like BLM.
Yes, if only people would stop protesting police brutality, there would be no police brutality. Logic!

You’ll also note zero pushback on the show.

I didn’t know their National Anthem had a second verse.

It’s too bad no one thought of that when covid first hit. If only scientists had a better understanding of how corana viruses worked back then, they would have known that all we had to do to reduce our numbers was to stop testing so many people.

Oh, they tried that (sort of). Trump’s reason for not letting cruise ships dock wasn’t quarantine, it was because it would raise the number of people in the US with the virus.

…and doesn’t realize that this requires them to start mis-gendering every student who isn’t trans.

…or that this requires every student to declare their preferred pronouns, so we know exactly what not to call them.

Stupid on two completely different levels!

Except 'Murkans aren’t sneaking over the border to get those meds, nor are Can-EH?-dians sneaking over the border to deliver the meds - everyone’s using passports already.

Fucker Carlson says the “crazed narcissist” Michele Obama is planning on running for President.

Unfortunately, I think that the person who most wants her not to run is Michelle Obama. Personally, I’d be thrilled.

She would have my vote.

She’d have mine and every vote I could harvest.

De Santis released his new state budget today. One of the items is a permanent ban on taxes on gas stoves, because “they want to take them away from you.” But you will still have to pay taxes on electric stoves.

Marge Greene conflates equity and diversity with CRT, but at the same time claims that ONE school in Illinois got $5.1 BILLION in Covid funds.

House Republicans have disbanded the Subcommittee on Civil Rights and Civil Liberties.

It sounds as though you’re expecting logic from a manufactured right-wing “issue” (or prospective issue, anyway.)

I’m sure you know better!

I found a picture of that one school.

MAGAs in Congress have replaced their American flag pins with AR15 pins.

Unconfirmed rumor is that they were provided by the NRA and were asked to wear them on television in return for a donation. Regardless, I find the symbolism of preferring instruments of violence over the country itself to be entirely on brand for them.

Y’all Qaeda

Republicans push through a resolution to allow weapons carry in committee meetings.
