A South Carolina voter says she’s voting for Darline Graham because after praying she knows it’s God’s will. She also says God is choosing Trump, a 34 count convicted felon adulterer.
These people vote. Cancel them out.

Can someone tell literally every political consultant that sending texts to people from random numbers multiple times a day is probably NOT the best way to convince them to vote for you?
Thanks in advance. – at Patton Village, TX

- Quiet hours start at 9 PM or the neighbor calls the owner.
- Then on your last morning, the real job starts.
- You just paid $150 for cleaning, but there's a laminated chore list on the counter.
- Strip every bed and start a load of towels in the washing machine.
- Load the dishwasher and run the soap cycle before you leave.
- Wipe down all the counters and sweep the kitchen floor.
- Carry three bags of trash down the driveway to the street cans.
- Lock up by 10 AM sharp or get hit with a $75 late checkout charge.
- Your $160 room just cost you $270 a night to do someone else's chores.
- You drive home hoping the host still gives you 5 stars as a guest.
All because you wanted two days off.

Delivered with the only kind of fire and grit you’d expect from Martina Navratilova. 🔥🫡
And to the maga nasties out here who are suggesting I am not an American since I also have a Czech citizenship and therefore I voted illegally here in Florida. I got news for you. Melania trump is also a dual citizen- of US and Slovenia.
So yes-
I can vote, I have voted and will be voting democratic as long the GOP remains a party of pedophile and rapist protectors. Among other things.

Hey maga, can one of you explain why when someone at one of your rallies yells at trump, "release the epstein files!" You start chanting U.S.A. U.S.A. U.S.A.
I don't get it. Why do you do that?

Judge: "When did you become aware of a plan to close the golf course in November 15th?
Dept of Interior official: "A plan?"
Judge: Do I need to get the dictionary again.. to read out the definition of "plan"?

Trump's profound incompetence is single-handedly decimating the stock market — and arguing otherwise is pure delusion.

Any American company providing aid and comfort to Russia will be written about by the press and made known to Congress.
Many of us in Congress will make it a point to highlight any company that buys the potentially illegal blood diesel from Russia.
Proceed at your own risk.
NEWS w/ @anna_c_kramer: Trump aides are privately pressing US firms to take shipments Russian diesel currently crossing the Atlantic, sources say
Firms do not want to say yes, seeing major legal & reputational risks

That’s how he makes his stupid followers feel smart. They know “dumb” is spelled with a B, but as long as they think no one else knows, they figure they are all geniuses.

Why does Trump always say “nobody knows this” about shit that’s common knowledge?
⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
A classic chart to counter the wisdom of crowds idea. US Americans are absolutely clueless about how common things are. They think over a quarter of Americans are Native Americans, one in five Americans is transgender, over a quarter of the population are Muslim, one in five households earn over half a million dollars. The right answer to all of these questions is 1%. They build their worldview on totally incorrect assumptions towards reality. Data literacy matters.

Trump has just cancelled rallies and rescheduled them as tele-rallies. Lots of them. Mostly in deep-red states.
His stamina isn't what it used to be, he knows he's not helping, and he is very sensitive about being heckled.

The "eye-in-hand" symbol was one of the most mysterious depictions on Native American pottery and artifacts until researchers began deciphering the symbols in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

MANAGER TEXTED ME ABOUT SITTING DOWN ON SHIFT. I TEXTED BACK MY RESIGNATION.
Manager:
Good evening. Reviewed the cameras from today's shift and noticed you were seated for most of it. This isn't acceptable and we'll need to discuss it before your shift tomorrow.
Me:
I had that cleared with my lead already. I've got two documented fractures in my left foot, doctor's note on file.
Also, for context, I hit 230+ units per hour for the full 12-hour shift. There's a ranked performance board above our stations. I finished first today.
So just to clarify, my output being the best on the floor got overshadowed because I wasn't standing while doing it?
Manager:
I'm not a fan of this attitude. You could've just led with the part about it being cleared instead of being combative. This kind of response isn't going to serve you well here.
Me:
Appreciate you using my time off to bring up something you didn't bother checking on first.
230+ units an hour, by your own metric that's supposedly the gold standard, and I'm getting a talking-to because I was sitting while doing it. Might want to rethink what actually matters here. Also explains a lot about your turnover problem.
I'm not worried about "going anywhere" with this company. It's a toxic environment run by people with backwards priorities. I won't be in tomorrow. Or after that.
Manager:
Let's not jump straight to you quitting. We can sort this out in the morning.
Me:
Pass. Take care.
Quit on the spot last night. Got to make my kids breakfast and actually drive them to school this morning for the first time in months. Onto the next thing, wish me luck.

Because they thought food stamps was what black people were getting, so they were ok with it being cut. Meanwhile,they were getting SNAP, not realizing that they're both the same f*cking thing. They deserve it.

OMG, it doesn’t get any juicier than this! Ken Paxton, a scumbag plagued with years of legal challenges and criminal charges including fraud, bribery, abuse of office, being impeached by his own party, might have found his own demise…having a mistress who is a registered Democrat! 🤣 His wife of 38 years who he had 4 children with, filed for divorce based on “biblical grounds,” after Ken had cheated multiple times, the last one being with his lover, Tracy Duhon, a married Christian influencer with seven children! Now, we find she’s a registered Democrat! You folks in Texas can make a change from this disgusting, lying, cheating lowlife criminal like Ken Paxton. If you have any of the morals, values, ethics you proclaim to have, VOTE JAMES TALARICO…he’s an honest man with integrity and respect who will work hard to represent ALL Texans! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
