NEW Stupid Republican Idea of the Day (Part 4)

And the verdict is … NOT GUILTY!

Sandwich tossers rejoice!

I’m sure deliberations only took that long because the jury wanted a free lunch for their trouble.

The opening sentence of this article made me smile.

Jurors showed no appetite for the Justice Department’s case against “sandwich guy,” the D.C. resident who chucked a Subway sandwich at the chest of a federal officer, finding him not guilty Thursday after several hours of deliberations.

Because she’s known to give a handy, and probably more, in a theater, at the drop of a hat. ANY hat.

:musical_notes: And I say “No no no no I can’t bullshit no more
My polls are falling right through the floor
No thank you please, I’m stuck neck deep in sleaze
That makes it hard to get out through the door.” :musical_notes:

The case was a load of bologna that didn’t cut the mustard.

HHS says menopause causes divorce.

The brain-worm speaks,

You know that old saying that, in an autocracy, anything not compulsory is forbidden? It sounds like Trump’s administration wants to make hormone therapy both compulsory and forbidden.

Not like this is a new thing, though… George W. Bush’s administration made human cloning research both compulsory and forbidden.

Republicans: Meet us in the middle

Democrats: (one step forward) OK

Republicans: (two steps back) Meet us in the middle

So they can scupper two generally popular things (abortion access and Obamacare) with one demand. Gotta admire their efficiency.

It’s unfortunate that no one saw this coming. They could have warned the handful of democrats that reached across the aisle. It’s just so unexpected for republican lawmakers to be full of shit. I don’t think anyone could’ve predicted that things would’ve played out this way. /s

Tony (Chico Marx): There’s a one dollar delivery charge

Hackenbush (Groucho Marx): Couldn’t I move over here and make it fifty cents?

Tony: Yeah, but I’d just move over here and make a dollar jus’ the same.

A Day at the Races (1937)

Pete Hegseth is forced to choose between his love of white supremacists and the fact that men who can grow good-looking facial hair make him insecure in his masculinity.

From the people who brought you “Tylenol causes autism”, it’s “actually don’t take Advil either”!

Do these idiots all own stock in Bayer or something?

Probably? I expect there is grift behind everything they do.

I think it’s simpler than that. Make up an enemy so you can pretend to protect the gullible from it. Call it CRT or “woke” or foreigners or Tylenol or groomers or trans athletes or pizza parlor vampires stealing children. Just make up something ridiculous to justify whatever policy you want to put in place to distract from the real enemy (the criminals currently in power).

So in 2026, people might be dealing with rampant inflation and scarcity and malfunctioning government agencies who have 1/4 of the people and budget they need, but at least the Republicans protected you from over-the-counter medicine you didn’t know was causing mutations!

ETA: I forgot to add stolen elections and Democratic city warzones to the list of RW Boogeymen.

Of course menopause doesn’t cause divorce.

Turning 50 causes divorce.

Shit, my marriage only has 2 more years then. :frowning:

I’m laughing at your Bayer conspiracy.

They are out against Tylenol and Advil. Have they come out against Purdue Pharma products?
