  1. Of course rising superstar and leader of the GOP, Marge chimes in with an epic self own.
  2. "Biden gives schools funding for mental health issues. How this could be bad for Biden" - The Media
  3. This is a really good interview by Bob Wachter with Ashish Jha, the White House Covid Response Director, on where we are at with Covid funding, research, vaccine and treatment development, testing, when to wear masks, long Covid, etc. Jha has always been very pragmatic about his approach to mitigation steps based on science. One thing that stood out in the interview is you could see his frustration with Congress and their lack of funding for next generation vaccines particularly the mucosal and pan-SARS vaccines. There will be another coronavirus that jumps to humans in the future, it's only a matter of when not if. These types of vaccines would most likely reduce the chances that the world goes through what we have been going through the past three years. But the anti-science, anti-vax mouth breathers like MTG and Desantis are driving the bus and slurping up disinformation simply to please their intellectually challenged base. It's worth the hour to listen to this interview. The first 15 or 20 minutes are more about the politics in DC that JHA deals with. The rest of the interview deals more with where we are at now in dealing with Covid as a society. I know 2023 is the Year of the Ostrich and everyone is done with Covid. If that's you then move on. Unfortunately, a virus doesn't give a f#&% about that.
  4. Is Comer really this dumb or is it just fodder for the base, which really is this dumb?
  5. If I'm Biden I launch an ICBM at it and... whoopsie daisy, hit Putin square in the forehead. That'd get the manly men on Biden's side. Well other than he would of vanquished their hero and started WWIII but details.
  6. But I want to be enraged that Biden initially wanted to shoot the balloon down but instead listened to his military advisors. Rage fills a hole in my otherwise vacuous existence.
  7. Lol....now investigated = persecuted?
  8. The second to the last paragraph (at least from what we can see in the screenshot embedded in the tweet) says "Whereas Representatives Cheney and Kinzinger are participating in a Democrat-led persecution of ordinary citizens engaged in legitimate political discourse....." Then @Archy1221says So he's saying that the resolution is talking about the persecution of those being outside the Capitol. Yet when asked to provide examples of those who were peacefully protesting outside the Capitol being persecuted, he can't. The resolution is actually implying that those who entered the Capitol and attempted to overthrow democracy are being "persecuted". Because, as far as I know, those who have been charged and convicted (i.e. persecuted) were not in anyway peacefully protesting. So yeah, no chance they mean those outside the Capitol Ehh
  9. Since you have a lot of time on your hands can you produce a list, or even a total number, of people who were peacefully protesting outside the Capitol who are being "persecuted"?
  10. And there it is.....just as predicted. I don't DISAGREE with any variables. I DISAGREE with your weak attempt at using variables to drive your narrative I actually used the one variable you used to excuse Desantis' Covid record, that being his state's population age. I compared other states with a similar demographic. His record fell flat. It's right there in the data but you'll gloss right over it as predicted. So we've reached the stage that everyone reaches when dealing with @Archy1221. The stage where he'll continue to blather incoherently and move the goal posts even though the other party has moved on to other things in life. Like work.
  11. Here's the top ten, in order, of states with the highest percentage of their population 65 and older with that percentage listed https://www.prb.org/resources/which-us-states-are-the-oldest/ Maine 21.8% Florida. 21.3% West Virginia 20.9% Vermont 20.6% Delaware 20.0% Montana 19.7% Hawaii. 19.6% New Hampshire. 19.3% Pennsylvania 19.1% South Carolina 18.7% Here's where these states rank in deaths per million https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ Maine 45 Florida. 13 West Virginia 3 Vermont 50 Delaware 30 Montana 26 Hawaii. 51 New Hampshire. 44 Pennsylvania 16 South Carolina 19 Florida finished second in that list for killing it's citizens. Waiting now for the goalposts to shift after destroying that little fake data point...lol
  12. Cherry picking variables by a guy who has no clue what he's talking about but continues to gaslight all the same. Florida: the Sunshine State where people move to spend all their time gathering inside from the cold....oh wait
  13. He was willing to put stronger gun regulations in and when the NRA tried to endorse him, he openly refused the endorsement. https://apnews.com/article/shootings-gun-politics-larry-hogan-maryland-national-rifle-association-c5c0e0458cbfed126eb11044225f1491 He actively has tried to end the gerrymandering problem in his state by creating a non partisan redistricting commission. https://redistricting.maryland.gov/Pages/default.aspx Reading just a little on his abortion stance. Like me, he's against abortion. However, he has said as Governor, he wouldn't seek to outlaw it. That's pretty much where I'm at. We need to work to reduce the need for abortion. But, I'm not for banning the practice. I'd love for him to jump in and hear more of his issue stances. He has to be better than Trump and Desantis. The word "moderate" comes to mind....which is a hell of a lot better than the wacko other two. But did he try to overthrow American democracy?
  14. Correct. Even posts threatening civil war. Great choice you made there.
  15. But your two time choice for president re-truthed FreeTx1776's post. That's the point that went zinging over your blessed little noggin.
  16. The video embedded in the tweet below it is just appalling.
  17. Who could have predicted that a malignant narcissist would try to thrust the country into a civil war to save his a$$ from prosecution?
  18. Well blessed your pointed little head. There is a first time for everything
  19. I remember that the narrative around why the Republicans turned on Cheney was "messaging". Nary a peep when a Desantis advisor talks about executing Fauci. That about says it all.
  20. Totally healthy birds of feather association here. https://www.mediamatters.org/coronavirus-covid-19/ron-desantis-ally-dr-jon-ward-fauci-should-face-firing-squad
  21. Maybe he couldn't comply. https://www.patreon.com/posts/77869102?utm_campaign=postshare_creator I watched a number of the videos and unless I missed something the kid they murdered was the one trying to deescalate the situation until it became obvious his life was in serious danger. So he ran. This Scorpion unit is/was sketchy as f#&%. Maybe Nichols knew just how sketchy. This doesn't seem like a one-off to me.
