Dump Term 2, 1.01: Sleep Now in the Fire

Just like guns, there is nothing we can do about this.

Fifteen measles cases — mostly in school-aged children — have been confirmed in a small county in West Texas with one of the highest rates of vaccine exemptions in the state.

Race. I'd delete that.

I was thinking the same. Oh, the country we live in now. Thanks, Obama.

On a related note, why did I read an AP article today that said the cast member from last night’s performance who flew a “Sudan/Gaza” flag is not being charged with a crime, per the NOPD?

Being totally serious…I didn’t see this person get tackled by multiple people after he ran off-stage. What was the purpose of tackling this person and taking him to jail? What crime was potentially committed that required arrest? I’m going to keep this in the Dump Thread since the a**hole was at the game.

Another day in trumps term, another plane incident with a fatality

Dump told the AG to dismiss the charges against Adams in what several lawyers i read describe as the most corrupt letter to ever be written with DOJ letterhead.

Diaper don says there will be hell to pay if Hamas doesn’t return hostages by Saturday

Boom boom

I can't imagine downside to an algorithm and statistics heavy organization deleting any document containing the words "bias" or "inclusion".

You know who else did a "Big Delete"?

She is no longer the "Sane Republican Du Jour" like she was during Biden so she is stuck in constant pivot. Plus she is a female Republican and she is starting to really see what that means.

Plus, she is a See You Next Tuesday...

Can't wait for the Israel-Gaza war to start up again.

Will that be before or after the GOP kills entitlements?

GOP zooms in on Social Security cuts to fund Trump’s tax scam

My personal favorite part...

Republican Sen. Mike Lee of Utah, also went even further in a post on X, saying that, "Social Security [is] a ripoff for most Americans compared to essentially any legitimate retirement investment."

Leaving out the fact that most retirement investments die because of GOP decision making...what about all the Boomers who are on SS now with no retirement? Oh yeah they can work til they die I forgot!

He is unaware of how many pension funds have gone bankrupt? What a ****head. I hate these people. All of them/

Cut all of it. End the whole fucking program. Medicare, too.

Pain and suffering is the only way whiny ass Boomtards will ever learn that their votes have consequences.

I hate that I agree with this.

You know we often quote Carlin around here...but shout out to H.L. Menken!

Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.

On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

In this world of sin and sorrow there is always something to be thankful for; as for me, I rejoice that I am not a Republican.

Legend: A lie that has attained the dignity of age.

No one in this world, so far as I know - and I have searched the records for years, and employed agents to help me - has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people.

This should be in the Leopards Eating Faces thread but I will put it here out of laziness: https://www.reddit.com/r/LeopardsAt...ossible_trumpmade_catastrophe_for_state_that/

As a bourbon drinker this makes me sad on some level (might need to hit up Costco and stock up) but the joy of Kentucky distillers getting screwed by Trump before, saved by Biden only to vote to be screwed over again is too delicious

Apparently Dump got booed at the Super Bowl but Fox overlaid canned cheers in the audio.

International broadcasts clearly have audible boos.

You really shouldn't hate it

My verdict for the state that gave us 40 years of Bitch McConnell and loves a good "JESUS OR HELL" mailbox sign:
