Genocide Joe living up to the title... One that he will be remembered by forever. That, people falling off the sides of planes in Afghanistan, and arrogantly guaranteeing a second Trump term without ever even legitimately winning a single primary. One of the worst presidents of all time and a one-man indictment of the primary and voter hating DNC.

Shocker! It's almost as if they were egging Netanyahu on this whole time and lying to their own voters because they have NO respect for us and serve only their masters in Tel Aviv... weird...

I mean, in theory you could overpay Raytheon execs to provide free school lunches or something. Using weapons of mass destruction as your specific grift to funnel money to the overlords is a choice.

True, but Israel isn't profitable. If it was a US citizen they'd let it die homeless on the street with no healthcare or food.

I am deeply skeptical the senate is going to appoint her. I know, orange man=hitler, yadda yadda. A great truth of life, though, is senators are giant fucking assholes who do what they want out of ego alone if nothing else -- see them not only spiking Rick Scott in vengeance for him not doing his job and taking his yacht to Corfu or whatever when he was leading the GOP senate campaigns 3 cycles ago, but going with Thune, the sole candidate not promising ANY reforms just to show MAGA nation who's in charge. This lady was a democrat until ten minutes ago... I do not see it, especially for DNI...

You have said the actual truth

In the mid-90's I was working as a cashier for a regional chain that would buy cheap shit from China and sell it to social security recipients (who back then were prone to hoarding because they were Great Depression children). After tax (sorry, entitlements, like social security and medicare which I'm suuuuure I'll get) at minimum wage it was slightly less than $2/hour in that state. So every day was all checking out social security recipients blowing their checks on $500 of 10 cent plastic gnomes filling their cart. We got in at one point "Candles from the Holy Land" (which might have been from a Taoist holy land, but...) marked 30 cents but rang up as $3 (this chain preyed on old people so upmarking v listed price was common but 10x was something you'd notice buying a cart full of them expecting to pay $500 and it's $5000) so I had to manually correct per candle whole carts of candles from the holy land on checkout. One time I did this and the elderly couple buying 100 candles from the holy land asked "why do you keep typing all this stuff on the cash register per candle" so I told them "well, this is priced at 30 cents but rings up as three bucks so I need to correct it, but I can't do a price change on multiples at once." They check out and then the customer after them is this elderly meth head lady with no teeth who gets ALLLL up in my shit "I'VESHOPPEDHERESINCE [pretty sure 10+ years before this chain or one store existed] AND THEY WOULD NEVER MISPRICE AN ITEM!!!!!" And she goes to the manager and gets me fired.

As opposed to the prior 30 years of "do a thou wilt" to silicon valley...

Well the voters we're talking about here aren't super informed, presumably. They're unhappy with the status quo and both Trump and AOC say they recognize the status quo is bad. It honestly doesn't seem surprising, what should be surprising is the consultant class who blew more than a billion dollars on a no change campaign with 75% "wrong track" polling are alllll going to keep their jobs and good standing and keep running the DNC further into the ditch.

White supremacy. Let's call Jewish supremacy what it is. After 2500 years of being the "victim" while white as opposed to Circassians or Armenians or Kurds or Huguenots or the "too blonde" Palestinian sisters from social media...

As per when Clinton normalized cutting benefits and Obama normalized killing American citizens via drone, the "resistance" Clintonian shit will only be used against us to stifle the left. Any "radicalism" that preserves capital will be allowed to thrive like Trump, any that doesn't will be killed on the vine like Occupy and Bernie
