He is just such a baby:

I was struggling to place it but I think yes.

He’s chicken shit, clearly not him on the bull, but then again there are adults who think WWEwrestling is an actual competition.

Nearly the perfect ad for that part of Texas though. +80% white folks who love guns, football and Jesus, in that order.

My pro trump family saga - I mentioned how Biden was well passed the 1 million shots in 100 days target and aiming for 200m in the next 100. Wellllll.... Did you know it was trump who gave him that! They were giving a million shots a day when trump left office!

I sent them the snoops link... Doubt they read it even though it partly agrees with them.

The current Rep. Matt Gaetz story is as insane as the one before about his teenage "son"

Jesus, there's frigging thousands of these dicks, survivalist/civil war whackjobs:

Really a shame this term has become less about bushcraft and self-reliance than about conspiracy quacks and fringe groups.

There does seem to have been some infiltration going on:

Extreme white nationalist sympathisers in the police, lovely.

Clever cop can't spell his own surname correctly:

Another anonymous donation of $400 was attributed in site data to an email linked to Chris Andersen and carried the comment: “I think that Chief Acevedo is part of the ‘unrecognized form of police corruption’ that Chris Anderson [sic] wrote about in his book’. Hang in there guys!!!”

Chef Avocado?

Dude, Tremors was released 31 years ago and that ship had already sailed (several times around the globe) by then.

Outstanding write up on what might come next for Chauvin.

I don’t remember writing this. Maybe I was being tongue in cheek? 🤷‍♂️

Here is a question; how has Trump 'disappeared' ? (became irrelevant etc)
But we still have Farage popping up?

Not seen him for a bit, but I'd guess it's one part him being more desperate for media attention, and one part a media more willing to give him that attention?

I'm not sure it's right to say he's disappeared. From what I've read, Trump is still fairly politically active. At least still heavily influencing Republican senators. Disappeared from social media maybe but I suspect the decision to be keeping his head down in terms of interviews is his own while he regroups and figures out what's next.

From a PR point of view, being seen as an agitator this early on in the Biden presidency would not work well imho.

being seen as an agitator this early on in the Biden presidency would not work well imho.

Why not? Trump's base are crying out for it and it's his natural instinct. Mitch McConnell obstructed and attacked Obama from day one and it worked pretty well for him.

Is that real? The trump statement I meme

I can’t imagine it isn’t real, given his other recent proclamations

Yep, it’s real

The feds just raided Rudy Giuliani's apartment and seized his phones

Latest twist in the Matt Gaetz story is that his best friend who is co-operating with prosecutors previously wrote and signed a confession letter (federal crimes yo) and gave it to Roger Stone because RS said it would be needed to get a pardon from Trump.

If Roger Stone ever asks you to do this, do not do this.

Goddamn I’m grateful criminals can be that ducking stupid. If only others would follow his lead and preemptively confess to felonies.
