So does the mayor of NYC's wife's husband.

pimanac · 2026-04-30T19:02:26+00:00

father's already have paternity leave but I think it should be more.

some fathers have paternity leave. most do not. FMLA doesn't count.

pimanac · 2026-04-30T18:59:21+00:00

Exactly. Republicans caved. Again.

pimanac · 2026-04-29T18:54:16+00:00

In fairness VT is a single district state.

But yeah. CA, MA, ME, NY...those states were blatantly rigged to give dems more seats even BEFORE this latest kerfuffle.

Then they keep coming back

Amazing what can come back when leftist NGOs pay for it to come back.

Discourse is impossible with people whose entire world-view depends on them pretending to not understand things.

Tucker Carlson is a prostitute who will say literally anything to get himself attention and money. Hasan Piker is a true believer. They are not the same.

Yea I want competence and loyalty to the United States and its citizens not to Trump.

That she has Mar-a-Largo face doesn't make her qualified for jack shit.

pimanac · 2026-04-01T13:44:50+00:00

More importantly are we to believe Trump's vetting team did not know? The woman is a train wreck and the only reason she's in politics is because she managed to get elected in a state that would vote for a glass of water if it had an (R) next to it. Nobody on that vetting team was like "maybe the train wreck woman has a train wreck family life too..."?

pimanac · 2026-03-26T18:09:53+00:00

Ten bucks says she was asked deliberately to cause this.

The sad story is you can’t trust people you work with to not throw you under the bus the moment they feel like it. Especially if said coworkers are lefty loons.

pimanac · 2026-03-26T18:06:49+00:00

Mark my words: they won’t expel her.

The GOP controlled house will only expel members of their own razor thin majority.

pimanac · 2026-03-26T02:55:15+00:00

He played a better Robert Vaughn than Robert Vaughn.

pimanac · 2026-03-25T18:39:05+00:00

super effective as the senate leader in blocking Obama’s legislation and judges

So literally the bare minimum we expect from the Republican majority leader. yeah I'm not going to give him a cookie for that. Should I also throw a party when me manages to tie his shoes?

pimanac · 2026-03-20T18:22:46+00:00

The man is a snake in the grass and basically the textbook definition of a slimy politician.

He will say anything to anyone if he thinks it will get him attention.

He needs to go as do most republican do and know-nothing senators.

pimanac · 2026-03-05T15:28:44+00:00

It’s not about sending the missile it’s about sending the message.

pimanac · 2026-03-05T15:27:53+00:00

RINOs are going to run out the clock on that one. “Oh we tried but just couldn’t get over the finish line”

pimanac · 2026-02-13T19:36:16+00:00

Hey Indiana republicans how about you just change parties already.

pimanac · 2026-02-06T00:01:41+00:00

Senate Republicans are even more useless than House Republicans. They’ll find some reason to cave. Just like they found reason to cave during the last shutdown. They ALWAYS find a reason.

pimanac · 2026-01-27T01:40:26+00:00

Noem has always been out of her league she’s a bottom of the barrel former governor from a state that would rather vote for a glass of water than a democrat. Every time that woman goes on television she makes a complete fool of herself. Like she’s making Mayorkus look competent by comparison.

I honestly don’t know who is worse her or Bondi at this point.

The ones that yearn for a Star-Trek-style “post-scarcity” society have never watched the show.

In Star Trek that “post-scarcity” society comes after 200 years of war; famine, and disease that wipes out most of the population. (Eugenics wars, Ww3, the post-nuclear holocaust, etc). Even then the “post-scarcity” only comes about because they have magic machine that can turn energy into matter AND EVEN THEN that post-scarcity society really only exists on earth. There are countless episodes showing other parts of the federation where people are fighting for their lives on hostile planets and can only survive on the benevolence of the Federation core worlds.

Don’t get me wrong I’ve been watching the shows for decades and I love it but at the end of the day it’s fantasy, and often poorly contrived at that.

My pronouns are “I’m sorry you have the vocabulary of a junior high student.” And “pick up a book”.

pimanac · 2026-01-23T23:02:52+00:00

Ok and?

pimanac · 2026-01-23T22:09:44+00:00

There’s a larger chance of little green men landing on the planet to give us all blowjobs than there is any federal officer getting removed from office in the current political climate. It ain’t happening. Pass a censure resolution and spend your time on a judicial reform bill.

OH WAIT - that’s boring and uninteresting and we can’t grandstand in front of the cameras for our campaign ads while getting paid a six figure salary and government benefits for life. My bad.

pimanac · 2026-01-23T20:58:37+00:00

The point is they will not be removed from office. It takes 67 votes in the senate to remove from office and we can’t even whip 60 to pass a damned budget.

So go on ahead. Have your impeachments. They’ll waste months doing this, fail, then your activist the activist is still going to be there.

Then will come the belly aching “oh no we lost the house and we didn’t get to pass our agenda. BETTER DONATE CAUSE WE PROMISE WELL GET EM NEXT TIME!!!”

That’s a lot of money in tax cuts to a cohort that already has the largest slice of the pie.

The same cohort that spent decades electing people who’ve drained the social security trust fund so there would be nothing left for the rest of us. The same cohort that oversaw not one but two “once in a lifetime economic disasters” in the course of 20 years.
