More Democrats voted for the bill than Republicans. That should tell us who really won this round.

Biden picked the right people to negotiate the details, he kept the process moving and didn’t panic. He wisely didn’t brag about the final results which would have made it difficult for McCarthy to save face and get votes from his caucus.

DeSantis is a dweeb

“Texas Republicans wound down their regular legislative session Sunday by changing election policies for a single populous Democratic stronghold but not other parts of the state.
The measure gives the secretary of state under certain conditions the power to run elections in Harris County, home to Houston and 4.8 million residents. It follows a bill  approved days earlier that shifts the oversight of elections from its appointed elections administrator to the county clerk and county assessor.
Harris County officials at a news conference last week said they would bring a lawsuit challenging the measures as soon as Gov. Greg Abbott (R) signs them into law”

“One thing red states tend to have in common is that they are right-to-work states, have lower rates of unionization and have lower wages with no state minimum wage,”

“Consider that if attitudes toward the social safety net mean a blue state is more likely to provide paid leave, then turnover probably will be lower because workers won’t have to quit to deal with a family emergency, illness or giving birth. Or if a blue state offers better unemployment benefits, laid-off workers may be able to hold out longer to find a new job that’s a better fit. And once they’re in a job that fits their skills and needs, they’re less likely to quit”

So a lack of Unions and government support for workers causes workers to change jobs often in Red States

Biden administration officials said they were not planning for how to prioritize payments. As the U.S. edges closer to default, the Treasury Department declined to say whether that has changed.

The answer is simple.

Red States should get no money from the Federal Government until the debt ceiling is raised.

He’s  a big Trump supporter too. Republicans are deplorable 

When Biden took office in January 2021, the unemployment rate was 6.3 percent. Now it’s 3.4 percent, tied for the lowest figure since 1969. Even more impressive is the 4.7 percent rate for Black Americans: Not only is this the lowest rate in recorded history, but it also represents the smallest-ever gap between Black and White workers (whose unemployment rate stands at 3.1)

Now they couldn’t give a shit

Republicans are the people who said Obama shouldn’t  place a Supreme Court Justice in an election year, then they placed one 2 weeks before an election.

These scumbags have zero integrity and are not to be taken at face value. There is no doubt in my mind this sudden urgency to cut spending will disappear as soon as there is a Republican in the White House.

The answer is simple. If the debt ceiling is not raised (or repealed) then no Federal money should be sent to any red state. No social security checks. No Highway money, no Medicare, no farm subsidies. Cuts have to be made somewhere, red states are somewhere.

“Walt Disney Co., locked in an escalating political feud with Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, has scrapped plans on a roughly $1 billion investment in a new corporate campus in Florida that would have relocated more than 2,000 employees.“

Disney World is Florida’s largest employer, with approximately 75,000 workers.

Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) has filed to divorce her husband of two decades, according to court records obtained Tuesday by The Daily Beast.,

Who could have seen this coming? The Congresswoman got pregnant as a teen and dropped out of high school. She worked as a prostitute when she was broke.

And now she is a divorcee.

What superior values the party of family values has displayed.

3 losers. Just like the twice divorced Trump who has just an amazing marriage now with Melania. Even their own husbands can’t stand them.

“People on food stamps who aren't working are often providing unpaid care to children or older family members, are in school, or are out of work because of health problems, CBPP said. Adding red tape in order to qualify for food aid means that some eligible people are likely to fall off the rolls because of the additional hurdles, according to the group”

Lol lol lol

After 4 years of looking at the predication for the Russia collusion investigation, John Durham has ended his investigation with zero convictions and a 300 page report.

Robert Mueller’s investigation was two years had 37 indictments and 9 convictions. Many of those indicted were in Russia and beyond the reach of the United States Justice Department.

Trump refused to be questioned under oath and Mueller declared 

“Tuberville made things more complicated when he gave an interview to his local public radio station on Wednesday that criticized Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin for trying “to get out the white extremists, the white nationalists” from the military.“

“You think a white nationalist is a Nazi? I don’t look at it like that. I look at a white nationalist as a Trump Republican,” Tuberville said, placing himself within their camp. “That’s what we’re called all the time, a MAGA person.”

Senator declares that White Nationalist are Trump Republicans! 

… “According to a new CBS News-YouGov poll, the GOP electorate is divided into three camps: 24 percent say they will consider only Trump, 27 percent are not considering Trump at all, and a 49 percent plurality say they are deciding between Trump and other candidates. That 49 percent holds the fate of the country in its hands. Those voters need to take a good, hard look at Trump’s (town hall) performance and decide whether this is really the man and the message they want to lead the Republican Party into battle in 2024”

           -Marc Theissen, conservative writer for the Washington Post

Those are some pretty stupid voters, wouldn’t you agree?

For most of the hour-long session, the former president barely mentioned President Biden. Instead, he spent his time denying the results of the “rigged” 2020 election; railing against “stupid people” who refuse to acknowledge his victory; promising to pardon “many” of those convicted of committing crimes on Jan. 6, 2021; calling the Capitol Police officer who shot a rioter while protecting members of Congress a “thug”; claiming that Mike Pence was not in any danger from the rioters and had the power as vice president to overturn the election results; defending his “perfect” phone call asking Georgia’s Republican secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, to “find 11,780 votes”; defending his Truth Social post calling for “termination” of the Constitution; justifying his own mishandling of classified information while claiming that Biden stored classified documents in D.C.’s Chinatown, “where they don’t even speak English”; rehashing and justifying his “Access Hollywood” comments; and calling CNN moderator Kaitlan Collins a “nasty person.”

When he did venture into public policy, it was to say that he would restore family separations at the southern border (“When you say to a family that if you come, we’re going to break you up, they don’t come”) and to urge Republicans to “do a default” on the national debt (“You might as well do it now because … you’re going to default eventually anyway”) — a catastrophic move that would give Biden the pretext to shift blame for his ruinous economic policies onto Republicans.

At a New Hampshire event, Republican voters cheered Trump when he lied and acted inappropriately.

This is what the Republican Party has become.

The Party of nasty, deplorable morons.

They love an authoritarian, serial liar who egged on the Capitol riot of Jan. 6, 2021 and brags about sexual misconduct.

Republican voters are not smart people. They believe in God. They believe conspiracy theories. They reject science. And they elect morons.

Of course idiot Republicans will say this is the Deep State on a witch hunt. Because they are idiots. 

Or the always popular  “you can indict a ham sandwich” 

When convicted, they say it was rigged

Santos lies

FOX News lies

Trump lies

Republicans lie

Republicans are the true criminals while they make up fake scandals for Democrats.

Benghazi, Election denialism, Hunter Biden, The Great Replacement Theory, Critical Race Theory, Transgender bathrooms, “grooming”

He told us what he was on the Access Hollywood bus before the idiots elected him.

At least 9 shot in a suburb outside of Dallas

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) issued a statement describing the shooting at Allen Premium Outlets as an “unspeakable tragedy.” He said state law enforcement agencies including the Texas Rangers would investigate. “Our hearts are with the people of Allen, Texas tonight,” the statement said.


Unfortunately, their brains aren’t with the people of Texas.

The losers are going to jail for a long time. 

“Special counsel Jack Smith is investigating whether Trump or those around him broke the law in seeking to hold on to power by fanning false and incendiary claims that the election was stolen, pressuring state and federal officials to assist the effort, and sending thousands of supporters who heard him speak at a Jan. 6 rally to march to the Capitol”

An Oklahoma man killed his wife and children and others. 

It was on YouTube so it must be true.

This is an example of the stupid shit Republicans would post. Well two can play that game.

Soon the government will not be able to pay all it”s bills because Republicans are using the debt ceiling as leverage to cut spending (actually the growth of spending) 

Why the sudden desire to cut spending? Because we have a Democrat in the White House.

What if the spending cuts cause a recession? Perfect, then Republicans can win back the White House in 2024

So when we get to the point the country can’t pay all its obligations because it can’t borrow more money, who should get stiffed first?

The answer should be obvious. Don’t pay the people in Red States. After all, it’s their Congressmen who are refusing to raise the debt ceiling.

So when cuts become necessary, and the Treasury Department has to choose who doesn’t get paid, start with Social Security checks to people in Red States.

That should light a fire under the ass of these Congressmen. No Social Security for people in Texas, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, and so on.

Biden isn’t going to win those states regardless, so he isn’t losing anything politically. Plus this is payback for Republicans raising taxes on Blue States.

Fair is fair. Blue states pay most of the Federal taxes in this country, Blue states should keep getting paid.

How will the wack jobs blame this shooting on the Democrats this time?

A gunman shoots his neighbors, including an 8 year old boy because they asked him to stop shooting his rifle in his front yard. 5 killed 3 injured.

He was a good guy with a gun, a law abiding citizen until he killed his neighbors.

Trump Media and it’s Truth Social social media company could liquidate this summer

It’s called The Brain Washing of My Father.

All the right winger wack jobs on this site need to go watch it. It will be like you are looking in the mirror. It may save your life.

In 1996, E Jean Carrol was allegedly raped by Donald Trump. When she went public about it years later, Trump called her a liar. He called her a liar as President and he called he a liar as an ex-president. Then he called her a liar on-line today as the case is in court.

He’s being sued for defamation, just like FOX News was and settled for 787 million dollars after discovery went very badly for FOX.

That doesn’t bode well for the losers on this site suffering from White Fragility and espousing White Nationalism.

If Tucker Carlson can be fired from FOX News, then the many, nameless, faceless white supremacist losers in this country will likely be stuffed back under their rocks.

Back where Donald Trump found them.

Tucker Carlson is gone without even being allowed to say goodbye to the Wack Jobs that were his audience.

Between sex scandals, hosts Fed-up with the lies, and the legal liability they created with the lies and nonsense, FOX News has had quite the turnover over the last several years. Working at FOX is like choosing disreputable people to be your friends. Either you leave in disgust or you eventually get brought down yourself by the toxic environment. Carlson is only the latest on air personality to be destroyed by the FOX corporate culture  - give the people the lies and nonsense they want to hear. He is not the first, and he won’t be the last to go down in flames for what the owners hired them to do.

How much longer can lipgloss Laura keep her job?

Red states have poor economies with lots of poverty and permissive gun laws. This is a recipe for disaster.

Jackson, MS 88.8

Gary, IN 76.3 (only city listed under 100K in population)

New Orleans 74.3 

Birmingham, AL 72.9

St Louis  68.2

Baltimore  58.1

Baton Rouge 51.8

Detroit 48.9

Well, someone proved the MyPillow guy wrong. Pay up Mike!

Mike Lindell’s lies about election fraud were proven false and an arbitration panel says he must pay the $5 million dollar prize.

An Oklahoma county commissioner resigned on Wednesday after being caught on a recording allegedly making violent and racist remarks and jokes with members of the McCurtain County Sheriff's Office.

Now that FOX News has admitted they were complicit in Trump’s Big Lie, and paid 787 million dollars for their actions to avoid having to testify under oath, conservatives must admit they were wrong and Trump tried to steal the election.

Otherwise they will be forever ridiculed and shamed by their poor judgement and traitorous conduct.

“What Dominion uncovered in the investigative part of the suit - what's called discovery - revealed a world grounded in cynicism, hostility. From the top down, the Murdochs and Fox created a network defined by a relentless pursuit of ratings that placed profit above politics, and partisan advantage above any sense of journalistic obligation. The public's right to know the truth rarely earned a hearing”

“Anchor Shepard Smith left the network in 2019 after being attacked on the air by Carlson and receiving no public backing from Fox. Wallace left Fox in late 2021 after Carlson's lies about the January 6th attack on the Capitol. Baier raised objections to Carlson's special programs championing the insurrectionists. But Baier protested quietly, in private. And he stuck around.”

A man is dead and another is going to jail until he is old and bald because the geniuses in the Texas State House said “hey, we need as many guns in public as we can get” and if you feel threatened by someone, you can shoot them.

And now two stupid rednecks have had their lives ruined.

Bald, white guy Daniel Perry was just convicted of murdering a BLM demonstrator back in 2020. Perry was working for Uber.

According to police, Perry stopped his car and honked at people protesting while they walked through the street, blocks from the state Capitol. Seconds later, he drove his car into the crowd, police said. Perry, who was also legally armed, shot and killed Foster and fled the area, police said. He called the police and reported what happened, claiming he shot in self defense after Foster aimed his weapon at him.

Abbott had not previously commented on the case publicly and has has not elaborated on how he reached his conclusion about Perry’s case,

Now it turns out Perry had posted racist comments prior to the incident.

A Travis County judge has unsealed documents showing Perry's history of racist and threatening anti-protester comments on social media.

Some of Perry’s messages included “white power” memes, the Houston Chronicle reported.

In another post from May 31, 2020, Perry posted, “If this symbol represents racism in America… (shows confederate flag) SO DO THESE (shows NAACP logo, Hispanic Scholarship fund, America Association for Affirmative Action, BET, UNCP, the democratic party logo, etc,” according to the documents.

Thanks Donald Trump and FOX News for ruining this guy’s life

“Roughly two dozen mostly men and boys formed the invitation-only group on Discord in 2020 with a shared love of guns, military gear and God”

A friend who spoke with The Post described Teixeira as patriotic, a devout Catholic and a libertarian with an interest in guns and doubts about America’s future.

He also appears to be effeminate 

These bans all but guarantee the Republican Party will not be a national party. 

Patients from across the South have been traveling to Florida for abortions since the Supreme Court decision in June, which triggered abortion bans across the region. Over 82,000 people got abortions in Florida in 2022, more than almost any other state. Nearly 7,000 of those traveled to Florida from other states, a 38 percent increase from the year before.

Uh oh, more trouble for Trump and his idiot followers.

Which party do you think is focused on the right thing for America?

The idiot Elon Musk has no idea what he is talking about when he chose to label NPR as “state-affiliated media” and then changed to “government-funded media”.  In a BBC interview posted online Wednesday, Musk suggested he may further change the label to "publicly funded."

He is clueless and reckless.

The truth is NPR is a private, nonprofit company with editorial independence. It receives less than 1 percent of its $300 million annual budget from the federally funded Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

The rate of gun fatalities varies widely from state to state. In 2020, the states with the highest rates of gun-related deaths – counting murders, suicides and all other categories tracked by the CDC – included Mississippi (28.6 per 100,000 people), Louisiana (26.3), Wyoming (25.9), Missouri (23.9) and Alabama (23.6). The states with the lowest rates included New York (5.3), Rhode Island (5.1), New Jersey (5.0), Massachusetts (3.7) and Hawaii (3.4).

Crime is out of control in red states. What did Ron DeSantis do as governor to prevent this teen from brutally murdering his classmate for no reason other than the desire to know what it feels like to kill somebody. Imagine if this kid had access to an assault weapon. St Johns County is Trump country and is solidly Republican in its voting.

First a mass shooting in Tennessee, now in Kentucky.

But I thought the NRA said guns make us more safe?

The reason we have so many mass shootings in this country is because of our lax gun laws and our proclivity for assault weapons. This is because idiot Republicans are trying to please their idiot constituents.

The shooting apparently occurred in a bank. Will republicans propose arming tellers? Do banks need door reform? Was the shooter thinking about becoming a woman? What stupid ideas will republicans advance?

“After she covered a Nov. 19 news conference with Trump lawyer Rudolph Giuliani, then-Fox reporter Kristin Fisher said her boss in Washington, Bryan Boughton, called to say he was unhappy with her report. She said she was told she needed to do a better job of “respecting our audience,” according to documents released in the case.”

In November 2020, Fisher pointed out inconsistencies and lack of evidence regarding Trump's attorneys' allegations of massive election fraud. She noted about Rudy Giuliani "What he is saying in public — not under oath — is different from what he said in court." She also underlined Giuliani's false claims about the vote certification controversy in Michigan, as well as his refusal to produce any of his supposed evidence to the public.[7] She did the same with President Trump's statements in December, when several Republican judges, as well as several Trump-nominated public servants, had rejected claims of election fraud.[8] In early 2021 it was announced that Fisher would be leaving Fox News.[9]

The indictment included 34 charges of falsifying business records to conceal criminal conduct to influence the 2016 election and violate election laws.

Apparently not. At least none of the wack jobs on this site. Is it because Hutchison is way too normal for the nut cases that frequent this place? Is it because Hutchison is not a flame throwing racist who tries to “own the libs”?
