  1. I had lasik a few years ago and immediately went from banging 9s to banging 6s. Worst decision ever.

  2. Just as a reminder, these dipshits were around during Trump's first presidency, which included Trump redrawing lines on a hurricane map, Trump saying windmills cause cancer, Trump saying that global warming was a Chinese conspiracy, Trump saying that we should rake forests, and, of course, the daily barrage on common sense while a global pandemic was killing thousands of Americans per day. They don't get to pretend that this is a surprise. They don't get to pretend they didn't have the data. They just didn't think they'd be personally affected.

  5. It's not a close call. It's not easy, but it's not a close call. The argument against a shutdown is that Dems don't really have any leverage anyway and letting the government shut down means Trump/Elon/Vought can choose to shut down whatever they want. But they're already doing that. Courts will continue to function but DOJ staff will be greatly reduced, and hobbling the DOJ's ability to defend Trump is a good thing, not a bad thing. The argument for a shutdown is that Trump is weaker right now than he will be in six months if they let this CR pass. He's shocked a lot of people who still remember when things were actually pretty good just a couple of months ago and he's galvanized a furious opposition again. If Dems cave on this CR that opposition will splinter and another six months of Trump's insanity will cause a lot of people to just go numb and tune it all out. Besides, he and Elon and Vought have been shutting the government down for nearly two months already. Passing this CR will effectively ratify their crimes and essentially cede Article 1 powers to Trump. It will render Congress a rump institution. Better for Congress to just shut down and not operate and not fund anything for the next 3.5 years than that. That's not even getting into how the bill defunds DC's cops, probably so they can replace them with some ICE shitheads who will arrest any troublemaking protesters. And they don't really want a shutdown. Elon may sort of think he does occasionally, but he's a fucking idiot. If there's a shutdown Trump and the GOP will get the majority of the blame because the shit they're doing right now is wildly unpopular and people want it to stop. There's a reason the GOP unified to pass this fucking thing and it's not any 4d chess shit. Trump can't even fucking play checkers, much less chess, and is already talking about supporting a primary challenge against their lone holdout. He doesn't want a shutdown. These guys are fucking bullies, which means they're cowards. There's nothing a coward is more afraid of than someone fighting back.

  10. stop worrying about blame. trump and his redhats will blame everything on the dems whether we do what’s right or wrong, so might as well do what’s right. they control everything, they have the votes. if they want to burn down the barn, it’s not our job to hand them the kerosene rags and a lighter. america voted for this. it’s not the dems job to be the adults in the room. fuck it.

  11. I wasn't an economics major, but seems like balancing the budget, then wiping out tax revenue from a huge portion of the country's population, might result in an unbalanced budget.

  12. This shit infuriates me. These people are supposed to represent the interests of their constituents. They are hearing, loudly, across this country that they are not happy with what is happening in DC. Instead of listening and saying “Hey, I hear you loud and clear and I don’t agree with all of this shit, either. It’s time for me to get back to DC and caucus with my colleagues to come up with a plan to stop this bullshit” they turn tail and hide. Spineless traitors with zero courage and with a singular interest of self preservation. Pieces of shit.

  13. Elon is going to nuke very large groups of government employees no matter what. Shut it the fuck down and see who emerges as a true leader to right the country. At this point what do we have left to lose?

  17. All these people who can't believe Trump lied to them are a product of living in the Fox News misinformation bubble. We're all like, "Of course he lied to you -- that's what he does, stupid. How could you not see this coming?" But they really didn't, because they've never heard the litany of stories about how Trump has treated past business partners, etc. It's amazing how Fox News was able to create a semi-fictional reality and convince a hundred million people that they lived in it. But even as I type that, I still can't manage to drum up an ounce of compassion for these people. Yeah, they were hoodwinked by Fox, and they're being hoodwinked again by Trump, Musk, and a bunch of other colossal assholes. But decent people did try to reach them. They called the people who tried to save them libtards, Communists, intellectual elitists, and more. They wouldn't even take two seconds to put a mask on during a pandemic, and they cheered on the incarceration of brown women and children at the border. And they were so god damned smug about all of it. Welp, you're learning now, aren't you, you stupid little pawns?

  18. “. . . cross-checking an individual’s personal data – like their name, birthdate, cell phone number and email address – against the data used to register with online sportsbooks and daily fantasy sites.” Who the fuck is dumb enough to use their real information? That's aggy-level stupid. Jesus. I always sign up as Marcel Reed, 19, College Station.

  24. I definitely didn't foresee that it'd be a bunch of mega rich Stanford and Ivy League douchebags who dismantled academia. These sick fuckers who already have more many than god and live like kings yet, instead of just enjoying life and (God forbid) trying to help other people, somehow are insatiably driven to stomp on people below them and accrete more power are the absolute biggest pieces of shit not named Donald this country has ever produced.

  27. No, this is wrong. He fucked this up in a half dozen different ways, if not more. He assumed that Johnson wouldn't be able to pass a CR out of the House and that he wouldn't get pushed into a tough decision, and he never contemplated any alternative scenarios. That's why the House caucus is fucking incandescent with rage right now; he let them go out on a limb and vote against this only to turn around and betray them. If he'd told them a month ago, WHEN JOHNSON WAS LOOKING FOR DEM VOTES, they could've at least tried to negotiate for something better than this. Then he tried to cover his own ass by lying to the public about his caucus' stance while going hat in hand to the literal enemy to beg him for help covering his ass. Schumer needed to decide a month ago whether he and his caucus had the stomach for shutting the government down and coordinate with the House leadership on strategy. It's a disqualifying mixture of stupidity, laziness, and cowardice that makes Kevin McCarthy look competent by comparison.
