  1. Poll by Yahoo News/You Gov on GRT. Highlights: When asked if “a group of people in this country are trying to replace native-born Americans with immigrants and people of color who share their political views” All Americans 33% agree Trump voters 61% agree Republicans 54% Fox News viewers 53% Nearly 3/4 of Trump voters think “discrimination against white people has become as big a problem as discrimination against Black people in the U.S.,” and 2/3 of Republicans agree. A lot more good info in the article relating to views on who is committing political violence and what contributed to the Buffalo shooting.
  2. I used to think that more female politicians would be a good thing, then the last few years happened. I figured, at worst, they would do the same stupid shit male politicians do, but would be less violently inclined. Whelp fuck me.
  3. Like them or hate them, the Bush family has had 2 U.S. presidents and 2 governors. Georgie boy is happy to take a giant dump all over his family legacy for Trump, who will shit on him the minute he does not kiss the ring enough. Some of the insults thrown at his father: What the fuck is in the water in Texas, that Republican politicians there, will let Trump shit on their families and still suck his bright orange micro peen? Guess Texas Republicans are not has manly has they like to claim, if they keep voting for dudes that lack the cajones to stand up to, or at least not kiss the ass of, the dude who shits on their families.
  4. Axios had an article with a shitty map about which states had codified protections for abortions and which ones would ban abortion based on "trigger" laws. I made a better map based on the information in the article so it is easier to visualize and find each state. Some states including FL, NE, IN, MT, and KS are likely to ban or severely restrict abortions, as well, if Roe/Casey are overturned by the Supreme Court, though I did not color them on the map, since they have not attempted anything recently. Purple states are states that have had courts block attempts at restricting abortion recently based on Roe/Casey. WV and 3 other states have state constitutional amendments prohibiting the protection of abortion rights.
  5. An abortion rights bill was passed back in September, basically along party lines. but there is no way they have enough votes (60) in the senate to pass it over a filibuster. The Senate version was opposed by Manchin and Casey, as well. Republicans Murkowski and Collins have their own Senate version, but again unlikely the votes needed are there. The Democrats might suck at getting shit done, in general, but this is not on them. Edit: The Dems can try to kill the filibuster to get it passed, but they have a couple loose cannons that have indicated they will oppose that.
  6. The GQP must be confident that their ability to overturn elections is secure, because this is about the only thing that could prevent Republicans from taking the house and Senate this year. It is going to drive a lot of people to vote, who likely would have sat this one out, due to the inflation problems and Biden ambivalence.
  7. No way. I had the covers over me.
  8. This is correct. Personality 3, Urkel Walker graduated in the top 1%.
  9. Oklahoma Legislature passes bill to make performing abortions a felony. Regarding Texas: I am sure Kansas will up the ante any day now. Can't have TX and OK surpassing it's own idiocy.
  10. Evangelicals would say the Devil was Jesus if he could make Christianity the state religion of the USA, with the Evangelical version the one adopted. They will work with any scumbag who will advance this agenda. The ends justifies the means to them.
  11. I think if you just slap some aftershave on your dick after unprotected sex you should be fine. It will smell good too.
  12. I always find it funny that people complain about staff clarifying something Biden says when people had to do it all the time for Trump, or would just excuse whatever stupid shit Trump had just vomited out, with he was joking or trolling the libs.
  13. Kim Jung Un is basically King, as North Korea has only chosen leaders from his family. He did not have to do anything other than brown nose his father to get the job. Trump can relate. Xi Jinping's father was a big wig in the party and revolution, so Xi Jinping was automatically in the small group of people the CCP will pick a leader from. Had to show some talent, but not like he was starting form the bottom. More like starting on 3rd base. Very Trump like. Putin was the only one coming from somewhat humble beginnings and having to be pretty extraordinary to rise to the top, but his grandfather was chef to Lenin and Stalin so I am sure he got some perks along the way as a young man for coming from a loyal party family.
  14. Have not posted in a long time in this thread. South Korea is getting it's ass kicked by Omicron right now. In December, there was a Delta surge, but it never really got out of control. They still traced everyone. Omicron arrived here just in time for the lunar new year which is a 3 day holiday where everyone goes home to see their families and it fell so that it was a five day weekend. After the holiday, Omicron has just been spreading like crazy. There had been 3000 deaths or so through the end of November, 2021. The Delta surge in December doubled that to around 6k. Omicron has doubled it again at over 13K at this moment. The number of total cases was 1 million at the beginning of February before the holiday. It broke 10 million total cases recently. Daily cases recently topped 400k and 400 deaths. They stopped contract tracing last month as there were just too many sick people now to trace them all. No more checking in on your phone/sign in sheets and temperature checks to enter businesses. Schools and businesses used to shut down if there was a case. Right now nothing shuts down. Just go home until you are better. Good news is Korea has nearly a 90% vaccination rate and like 2/3 have been boosted. Throw in universal health care and it helps a lot. Most of the dead are unvaccinated and/or at risk people who are being exposed for the first time, since the near universal mask wearing here and tracing previously helped get previous surges under control quickly. The worldometers web site has some crazy graphs showing how Omicron has really gone crazy in South Korea compared to how well COVID was handled the first couple years.
  15. Passive Aggressive Coach drops a deuce in the punch bowl and exits. Everyone argues over if the punch tastes shitty or not. He has not posted since his original four posts. He doesn't care. You all like to argue too much sometimes.

    Iran

    If true, Iran is about to have one less military base.
  17. "I like Ted Cruz". This guy really is fucking nuts.
  18. Fifteen percent of Israel speaks Russian currently. Many families there trace their origins back to Russia. So a sizeable minority of people there probably have Russian sympathies and are active in the Israeli government. I fear a massive civilian bloodbath. When you rule by fear and strength showing weakness is basically a death sentence.
  19. Surly white knight meeting up with Russian OnlyFans "model" after simping sending her money to survive.
  20. This is my big problem with it. When I was a kid I had to take a week of hunter's safety classes (for all ages - about 10 hours total) in order to get a license to hunt. About half the time was dedicated to the correct usage, carry, and storage of firearms. Even though my father had taught me all this, I still had to prove I understood it in the final test to pass. Don't pass, no hunting license. I'd like to see a gun safety course be required to purchase firearms. It would be boring as fuck for most responsible gun-owning people, but it might help reduce the number of idiots running around armed. Either because they are too dumb to pass or they learn a few things that would persuade them to be more responsible with them.
