Do these stupid motherfuckers think ANYONE believes their shit, that isn't already in their cult?
Why do they waste time with this fucking moronic play acting? If they had any sense, they'd shut the fuck up publicly and get their fucking shit together privately.
Why doesn't jordan just admit that he's desperately seeking a way to avoid prosecution? And that he is fucking obsessed with proving that both Biden's did something they simply didn't do, so he can never prove it...
These are mostly educated people, only a few are trailer trash like bobert, even greene comes from a half ass decent family...What turned them into shit slinging monkeys? What fucking power is it that trump has, or at least had, that makes people more educated than him turn traitor? How can they be stupid enough, and shitty enough people, to commit insurrection for a fucking ignorant sleazey conman?
They should just save the histrionic bullshit for their own trials. They're going to need something, since they have no valid legal defense.
Their BASE believes every noise emerging from the collective GOOP throat: uncritically, absolutely, desperately

This is why EVERY GOOPer in Congress spends all day, every day, bleating the same exact bullshit…in Congress, to the press, on Twitter. They never stop

Florida bill allowing radioactive roads made of potentially cancer-causing mining waste signed by DeSantis
Florida will still need to comply with EPA regulations. From that article,

Radon, the gas emitted from phosphogypsum, trails just smoking to rank as the second-leading cause of lung cancer, and is linked to about 21,000 lung cancer deaths every year in the U.S., according to the EPA. The agency also says it's the "single greatest environmental source of radiation exposure."

Because of this threat, the EPA has banned the use of phosphogypsum in projects for decades. However, a spokesperson for the agency previously told CBS News that it is permitted for agricultural and indoor research, with restrictions, and it can be approved for specific uses if the project "is at least as protective of human health as placement in a stack."

In a statement to CBS News on Friday, the EPA said that the passing of the legislation, HB 1191, "does not affect EPA's regulation of phosphogypsum," noting the legislation specifies that the phosphogypsum be used "in accordance with the conditions" of the agency.

"Any request for a specific use of phosphogypsum in roads will need to be submitted to EPA," the spokesperson said, "as EPA's approval is legally required before the material can be used in road construction."



Before they can use that stuff, it's up to Florida to show to the EPA that using phosphogypsum to build roads is at least as protective of human health as those stacks. Those stacks are a long term risk. I understand the skepticism. Florida government is a right wing sinkhole of dumbass. But then again, the EPA has a mandate to regulate activities like this and have put in place a clear ruling on the matter. Before dumbasses can spread toxic waste across the landscape, they are required to do due diligence. The Florida bill amounts to approval for research. I'm all for research. That's how we train our future experts.

Do republicans really hate everyone who isn't part of their cult? It certainly appears so.
trump says “This is a great day for America, People with extraordinary ability and everything else necessary for success, including future greatness for our Country, are finally being rewarded. This is the ruling everyone was waiting and hoping for and the result was amazing. It will also keep us competitive with the rest of the world. Our greatest minds must be cherished and that’s what this wonderful day has brought. We’re going back to all merit-based—and that’s the way it should be!”
If that were true, he would be the guy who cleans out portapotties between rentals.
pence says “There may have been a time when we needed to affirmatively take steps to correct longterm racial bias in institutions of higher education, but I can tell you as a father of three college graduates, those days are long over,”
Well, I'm certainly glad you had that brief exposure to seeing a few minority students when you visited your kids on campus. That surely qualifies you to declare the institutional racism you help perpetuate " long over" .
nikki haley says “God bless the Supreme Court, for correcting things on religious liberty and correcting things on student loans.’ She argued that the affirmative action decision was especially important “because the liberals continue to try to put minorities down.”
...What the fuck planet did this bitch come from? cause it surely isn't this one.
tim scott says "Today’s Supreme Court ruling overturning President Biden’s illegal student loan scheme is a victory for common sense. You take out a loan, you pay it back. This decision frees taxpayers from shouldering debt they never signed up for. America needs to “stop selling the drug of victimhood and the narcotic of despair.”
I'm not even sure where to start with this fucking rob zombie movie extra...That a college education now costs 1200 times as much as it did in the 1980s? That affirmative action isn't "selling the drug of victim hood, or the narcotic of despair? That republicans are destroying the dreams of hundreds of thousands of kids, and dooming millions of others to a life of repaying usurious loans, that are the only way they have to get out of the deep round rut that years of politicians like scott have forced them into?
If a single one of these racist, hateful, privileged, entitled religious zealots ever holds office of any kind again, then there is no justice in America...And the supreme court is already on the job of killing justice in America.

The circular argument Trump made where he claimed a person's success meant they have a "great mind" reminded me of this recent quote from Liz Cheney: It sounds like a line meant to draw a laugh. But she's dead serious.

Liz Cheney on what’s wrong with politics: ‘We’re electing idiots’


Ex-congresswoman Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) offered a blunt assessment of her former profession Monday night: “What we’ve done in our politics is create a situation where we’re electing idiots.”

back in the 1980's you could include student loans when filing a bankruptcy. That kept the loan companies from loaning too much to students. When they changed the bankruptcy law to exclude student loans and that allowed universities to charge what ever they wanted because the loan companies knew they would get paid. Tuition went thru the roof.
