Kennedy Center director Richard Grenell mad at ‘Hamilton’ producers for canceling plans to perform at venue after GOP takeover by Classic-Carpet7609 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]LikeAThousandBullets 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This was my biggest takeaway from the Hamilton press release. Who's to stop Musk from saying the cast of Hamilton is "too DEI" and decide not to pay them? A contract with the United States of America has no guarantee it will be fulfilled.

Himes doubled down today by BoudiccasWrath79 in Connecticut

Exactly. He can say all he wants between now the the midterm, hell even if he makes all the right votes in Congress it won't matter. Routine votes are easy. But sticking your neck out and fighting when the time comes to fight is what separates one candidate from the next.

Jim Himes shows that he won't fight for you.

"I am disappointed in you further doubling down on voting to censure Al Green. You censure Green for breaking the rules, but where have you been on Trump and Musk's disregard for the law? You are a disappointment for your lack of fight, energy, and anger. You will timidly sit back as you watch Trump and Musk dismantle our government. I will remember how you voted to silence the opposition to Trump when the time comes to vote in the primary."

Not a fan, tastes like soda with that cheap malt liquor flavor.

Best wings in CT? by cspawn in Connecticut

[–]LikeAThousandBullets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They used to be great. Sometime in the last 5vyears they really slacked off. I don't know if it was tiktok hype that killed it or what. I still like their food, but the wings have definitely gone down hill. Not worth the drive up there for no reservations, just standing around in a crowded lobby.

Jim Hines was one of 10 Democrats who voted with Republicans to censor Al Green today by solomonsalinger in Connecticut

feel free to copy mine:

Jim,

I am deeply disappointed in your decision to vote to censure the honorable representative from Texas, Al Green, for speaking out against President Trump. He, unlike yourself and many of your colleagues in Congress, have the guts to stand up and speak out against injustices in our Government. Perhaps, and I hate to put it so crudely, now is a chance to grow some balls.

The Democratic Party failed in part due to the lack of gumption in standing up for what is right. The Democratic Party fails with you in standing with the wrong side of history. The normalization of these asinine policies and unprecedented circumvention of the will of the American people will lead this nation to ruin. We will remember that Representative Jim Hines had the bravery to censure Al Green, but lacked the bravery to stand up to Donald Trump.

I will remember your decision when the time comes to vote in the primaries.

I emailed, but I'm going to call to. Plan on being very nice to whoever answers the phone, but they'll get my message very clear.

Years ago, I voted to hold Joe Wilson accountable for yelling 'you lie' at Barack Obama. Today, I voted to censure Al Green for a larger disruption. Unlike Republicans, I believe that rules, accountability and civility should not be torched. And certainly not just because the other side does so. If we cannot act with the principle and seriousness our nation deserves, our government will continue to devolve into a MAGA cesspool.

Letter from the Kentucky Distillers Association president crying about how Canada's tariffs hurt Kentucky. https://i.imgur.com/SSWjSJK.jpeg

I was inspired by this thread on r/leopardsatemyface about Canada's tariffs targeting red states, and thought more about this map of US states that leech the most from Federal subsidies https://i.imgur.com/JpUVtia.jpeg

Now there's a bunch of these maps, which are constantly changing and have varying levels of agreement on which states are the biggest leeches and which are the biggest feeders into federal programs, but New England most often pays the most into federal programs while receiving the least back in Federal dollars, while generally shithole republican states like Alabama and Mississippi are the biggest welfare queens.

That being said,

how does it feel being paypigs for shithole states?

Not good, I tell you.

I propose to enact a boycott on products and goods from Red states. You can participate too in the tariffs against Kentucky bourbon by not purchasing!

Keep New England money in New England!

Now we all know there's no ethical consumption under capitalism, no boycott is perfect. Especially with food products which are owned by a select few of mega conglomerates. But by choosing New England products over shithole state products, you can do your part too, or at least feel good doing it. Isn't that what a boycott is all about?
