  • Of course it is retaliation. What else would it be? His claim that it is wasteful or that it’s about “fiscal sanity” (lol) [1] is simply not a believable claim. Projects like this are exactly why governments exist. But selfish little baby has to make it all about him.

    [1] I love that, even now, the idiotic myth that Republicans and conservatives are somehow the best stewards of money, the economy or business still lingers on. It was a ridiculous notion decades ago and has blown way into the child-like imagination phase at this point. Conservatives and Republicans are always terrible for the economy and terrible at balancing budgets, etc.






  • Ever since Donvict 2.0, I’ve lost count of what could be called a “national disgrace”, since there are just so many of them.

    I have also lost track of how many conversations I’ve had with people who make well into the six figures complaining about “giving” people more for minimum wage. I just don’t get it, and I know some of these people have had real shit jobs during high school, at least. This might make their sandwich or whatever some amount more expensive, but the people I’m talking about here can afford to dine out.

    I guess some cling to the idea that “those jobs” are only for high school kids, even though they can just look around at things like service jobs and see with their own two eyes that it’s not just for high school kids. You might be - for some reason I cannot comprehend - offended by the idea of someone trying to support themselves on such jobs, but the fact of the matter is - people are doing that (or trying to), and it’s not because of some moral failing on their part.









  • Hell, even Bobo understands:

    “Nothing says America First like denying clean drinking water to 50,000 people in southeast Colorado, many of whom voted for him in all three elections,” Ms. Boebert said in a blistering statement.

    I wonder if any Republicans like her will ever understand that “maga”, in other words, Republicans and conservatives, have and always have had, an America LAST agenda. Meaning, they don’t plan on doing positive things for the people that actually live here in this country, and not just the 1% of 1% and the white cishet conservative xtians.
