  1. https://www.livenowfox.com/news/house-judiciary-gop-rickroll-epstein-files Dear God, but this is wonderful…
  2. Yup. During the Great Depression- to have a job in bum fuck any where as the Federal Postmaster made you King of the World.
  3. Uncle? Dude. My selective service number for the Vietnam conflict was No. 27.
  4. Now that we have AI, you can employ it to go through the entirety of the posts on Surly and ask it to return the ones that say “Boy - that gator guy sure is smart!”
  5. I got my haircut today by my longtime barber. He is a Vietnamese refugee who became a citizen in the 70s. He is a huge Trumper, a non-critical thinker, but watches his Fox and OAN and considers himself extremely politically astute. He will never vote for the Democrats because they are “close to being communist, and he knows all about communist from his time living in Vietnam”, don’t you know…. We’ve had a truce for some time where we don’t really get into politics. Today he wanted to talk about DOGE, and why it was good to eliminate the fraud. I told him the fraud was a lie, they just wanted to get rid of anyone who could stop Trump from implementing his project 25 plans. He then switched to how terrible it is that people don’t get along because of politics. Because he wouldn’t drop it, I told him it is no longer politics. We are no longer fighting about trickle down economics, or fighting about Middle East policy. We have a pathological, liar, felon, rapist, con man - supported by white supremacists - who is destroying the efficiency and fabric of American government to an extent that can’t be cured if we ever get a Democrat back in. He told me it was “ silly for politics to interfere with friends and family”. At that point I’ve had enough and told him I no longer have anything to do with Republicans who voted for Trump in 2024, because they are fake Christians and false patriots who are actually traitors- and although I wish the upcoming American pain could be confined to people who voted for Trump, I am looking forward to lots of pain in rural and stupid GOP strongholds. At this point, he was getting pissed at me, and said that I was brainwashed. He doesn’t make much at his hair cutting, and his federal employee wife is the big breadwinner in the family. He then told me his wife had to give five reasons why she should be retained, and she gave 15 so she would be kept. I laughed and said she’s gonna be fired anyway, and told him to call up Trump on the line when she gets fired and explain why that was wrong. Whelp, I was advised that I need a new barber.
  6. That moment you lose your job at the VA and realize that your wife opening an Only Fans account will do nothing to solve your economic woes.
  7. The top bold is the smooth brain comment you keep making - but you never attempt to dhow how in the world “Maine should get 75-25 democratic representation” will be implemented. You never say how this comes to pass. A decree of the governor? Altered voting machines? A wish of a genie in a bottle? Elizabeth Montgomery twitching her nose? Tell us how somehow the number of elected congressman will be changed due to a presidential election vote, and why that won’t be an unconstitutional restriction on voters rights to vote for their local congressional candidate, regardless of any presidential campaign selection choice. If you can’t, shut the fuck up and don’t post anymore on this subject.
  8. So, you’re happy to “sacrifice several hundred thousand bureaucratic jobs” in FDA, EPA, USDA, the National Park Service, etc. (as Elmo is doing now), because the huge military budget lacks sufficient accountability? Interdasting
  9. However, absolutely everything that happened in the federal government at the most granular level was solely the responsibility of President Biden….. at least when he wasn’t a completely senile incompetent wandering around drooling.
  10. She may be OK and wind up being a house slave on a Miller Plantation. But she is a two DEI strikes gal.
  11. as soon as they beat Russia, they better fucking renege on the deal.
  12. Kristina - I spoke to Mr. Trump and he advised me that they aren’t doing any trans sex change operations because the hospitals are covered in mud and don’t have a electricity or water. He told me to tell you, “ you’re welcome!”
  13. if you don’t oppose it, you support it, dumbass. There are some issues without both sides. I know that this is a mystery to you.
  14. I just spoke with an attorney in my office who is Hispanic, with her parents coming from Honduras. Her older siblings were born in Honduras while she was born in the states. She told me that at a recent family dinner her older sister’s husband mentioned that they should be all right because his wife had a birth certificate and was a citizen. She told him, “ your wife? She doesn’t have a US birth certificate. She was born in Honduras and I don’t think she ever went through the steps to gain full citizenship.” This was the first that the hubs had heard of this. Oh. The lawyer‘s mom voted for Trump because he was against abortion. She is Uber Catholic, and now refers to Trump as “The Devil” because she has so many friends and family members about to be deported. Her mom also works for the government. lol She told her mom, “I don’t want bad things to happen to you because you voted for Trump, but if they do bad things to you it will be self-inflicted.” That young lawyer tried to explain Project 25 to them before the election- but they refused to listen because “Democrats were killing all the babies”. I did not share with her that I hope her mom loses her job.
  15. I never said you wildly endorsed those things. I am correctly pointing out that you never criticized those things. I guess it is dumb luck that you never say anything bad about Russia but like to talk about Nazis in Ukraine as much as you can. But it is interesting that a poster universally considered on this board as a Putin shill to be claiming that it is a fabrication to suggest that you support Russia. I will admit that we could not see your Susan Collins furrowed brow during your both sides comments.
  16. Recording an alleged Spanish land grant written in Esperanto was not your best move.
  17. for the one millionth time, they aren’t MAGA talking points, they are what reality calls lies and misinformation. You have a right to an opinion, but not a right to what Trump‘s per secretary called alternative facts. The bigger problem is, they can’t make a point without lying about something that is easily disapproval. Like Ukraine is the cause of Russia invading them. You can ignore that those beliefs are not fact based, but don’t ask us to
