I bet it will have dinosaurs and cool jumps and fireworks and no homework.
Yea he can discuss it.
The Danish answer will be "Bliv kneppet din orange klovn"
Hahaha...oh, this isn't The Onion
GOP hard at work on those egg prices.
That's gotta be the dumbest thing I've seen today or maybe even the last week.
Are you sure? There’s so much…
Yeah... There is no way this is more dumb than saying "T bills might not be worth anything"
Dear god, I missed that one. I'll just add it to the pile.
Edit: Holy shit. https://newrepublic.com/article/191367/trump-treasury-default-bond-market
"Flood the zone." Steve Bannon
I laughed at this very loudly.
This is peak r/NotTheOnion.
Here's the bill from Georgia rep Buddy Carter: https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/1161
Okay but real talk, what is this designed to distract attention from? There’s gotta be something
Everything. Their intent is to overwhelm at all times. Bannon likes to say flooding the zone.* He admits this publicly.
*Flooding the swamp.
The fact that this administration is flat out refusing to comply with judicial decisions. This is literally the "you and whose army" stage of our trip down authoritarian hell where the executive dares the judicial to enforce their decisions.
fuck
Yeah refusing to follow the legislature or the judicial branch. It's so obvious but much of the Pubs refuse to believe it's not how our government works normally. I'm really starting to understand how those are you smarter than a 5th grader shows did well. None of them could pass a basic civics class it seems.
You won't be surprised to learn that he's a Republican representing Georgia.
His name is Earl, but he goes by "Buddy."
I honestly don't know which is worse.
We need to collectively ignore this shit and stay on point.
I would be so fucking embarrassed to have him as my representative.
So would his constituents, if they could read.
Idiocracy was never more prophetic than it is in our timeline. All it's missing are the stasis coffins.
I wish you guys could have President Camacho. He at least cared about things enough to trust running the country to the smartest man on earth
I'd be quite pleased with President Camacho at this point. He was at least engaged and charismatic. He was interested in making things better and publicly worked towards good things.
In Magaocracy, Muskolini is the smartest
Ah, I didnt know he had such love for France..
Hey, I wish the best for you North of Mexico Americans, but watching how you are speed running breaking the whole freaking western block apart, i also kind of wish to see states seceding... california, i have my hopes on you!
/s
What happened with the pentagon you know... the hand controling everything on the shadows... the dudes taking presidents to eternal trips? It's not a thing anymore?
Sorry for my sassiness, i know you are suffering this shit.
Is the map naming stuff separate from the purchase? Are we just going to start renaming other peoples' lands?
So can Canada make a law stating the country to the south shall henceforth be called the Untrustworthy Shithole of America? Will google, apple, etc. show that on the maps for Canadians?
its like they are all 3 years old. I cant get over the idea that these are lawmakers.
So, is this something that one throws together while sitting on the potty, or are the taxpayers paying someone to put in a fair amount of time and effort to come up with this waste? Just asking.
I mean... beyond the utmost stupidity of the US renaming everything internally. We're basically setting up for everything to work like our measurements system.
There's the solution. we won't actually anex any other countries... but internally in america we'll just call them all "eagleton" and "America's Hat" and "Dirty land where everyones trying to get into america from".
