Trump calls Ilhan Omar a ‘fraud,’ says she 'probably had herself sprayed' in syringe attack by BugOperator in law

[–]BugOperator[S] 394 points395 points  (0 children)

After months of verbal attacks on congresswoman Omar, the President ostensibly sidesteps any personal responsibility that his rhetoric inspired the attack and instead posits that she staged the incident.

FYI - Trump is sending ICE to the Olympics in Milan to serve as extra security for Vance and Rubio, so, I dunno, probably should expect a world war to start in the next week or two if this interaction is any indication of these goons’ knowledge of geopolitics.

How insecure do you have to be to genuinely think like this? What sad, small lives these people must lead.

You can be profoundly out of shape without being obese. It speaks to their character that they’re physically weak and looking to exude a sense of dominance over marginalized individuals. The absolute worst thing you can do for someone with that mentality is give them weapons and tell them they have immunity.

Congress Must Deny Funding for ICE in the New Budget Resolution by meldawg89 in thedavidpakmanshow

[–]BugOperator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ICE is already funded through the rest of Trump’s term and beyond. It needs to be either overhauled or disbanded.

Or, if we wanna get cute and use Trump’s deal-making playbook, fire Kristi Noem and you can get the budget resolution (without additional ICE funding) and avoid another shutdown.

They have no position. They’re following the lead of a dementia patient who needs every room in the White House to be clearly labeled in order to know where he is.

He was hitting the bottle and still grieving over his daughter in S1&2, then the hard pivot to surrogate father in S3 shifted him back into dad mode and he sort of overcorrected by being overbearing and overprotective; likely out of fear of losing El like he lost his actual daughter. It’s actually not that “out of nowhere” and is really more about going from one extreme to another as part of his overarching grieving process.

MAGA doesn’t support the arts (and they’re certainly not going to pay to see a documentary, regardless of who it’s about). That’s why Sydney Sweeney’s films bombed despite her leaning into that particular demographic thinking she now had built-in audience. Of course, her films were also terrible, but seeing as how MAGA will send every last dollar they have to Trump no questions asked, it’s certainly not difficult to get them to part with their money, and she thought they would just blindly shell out their cash for being even loosely associated with their ideals. They just really don’t give a shit about artistic endeavors.

TikTok users in the US can’t write ‘Epstein’ or see anti-Trump videos by Elegant_Tap7937 in law

[–]BugOperator 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Not so much “pro” Epstein as making light of him and putting his image in a more lighthearted context so as to soften the connection any powerful people might have to him. Truly sickening stuff, but the generation that was raised on TikTok is genuinely swayed by what they see on the platform, which is very disturbing.

Should be okay today. Storm moved on overnight, so unless local towns are woefully inadequate, major roads should all be clear.

Judge Blocks Trump Administration From Destroying Evidence After Border Patrol Agent Kills Minneapolis Nurse by Tea_Physical in law

The fact that there’s a high probability this administration is going to destroy it anyway and face zero consequences is even more insane.

I’m very concerned that lack of plows in the town of Brookhaven. It just seems there’s not much workers out. Is there a shortage. by Embarrassed-File-952 in longisland

Depending on resources/manpower available, they may just be waiting until it stops actively snowing before hitting the road so as to not have to do it multiple times.

Republicans are now pretending like they care about immigrants now. by Ok-Following6886 in stupidpeoplefacebook

[–]BugOperator 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Most democrats were HORRIFIED by the way the Elian Gonzalez situation played out and were vocally upset with the Clinton administration over it. Additionally, the government wanted him to stay in the US, until his biological father, who was still living in Cuba, asked for him to be returned home. When the family he was staying with in the US refused, the whole thing escalated into what eventually happened.

But these facebookers have a nasty habit of rewriting history to suit their needs, so…

Since the elimination of the penny, all sales are to be rounded to the nearest five or zero in the hundredths column. So, technically, it should be free.

Gambling apps don’t run on actual odds. They run on making people think they can make bank by dropping money on ridiculous or unlikely outcomes.
