  He extorted all of those 'Big Law' firms and instead goes with the guy who shared his ketchup bottle with trump at mar-a-lago when trumps ran dry.

  Oh look my shocked face. He only set people up to get sick, while they thought they were protected. Destroyed needed vaccines we paid for. So being conservative perks are touching kids, defrauding the government, & causing the spread of illness... because someone on FB told you the aliens made it.

  That was one the other was 'well substantiated' If it could find 10,000 articles blaming all of the misery in the world on the Jews, did that meet the requirement? Also it looks like it can just search all of the web for stuff, I wonder if it would have happened if they had embargoed white supremacist sites, but elmos freeze peach absolution would never allow them to block low quality crap that he believes himself.

  I enjoy the latest round of bullshit from the Nazi paper of record, they claim that his score was at the low end for regular people and he ticked black and magically he was in. Funny the math, which I know I do not have a good grasp of, doesn't work out. The percentage they used is artificially lowered. I'm sure that the Nazis aren't just twisting facts to support a narrative (Hey Kid, wanna buy a bridge in Brooklyn?) and that no fact checking took place on the article (that has sense been quietly updated but still tries to ride the dead horse of he only got ahead by ticking black & stealing a slot of a good upstanding white person.)

  They were given 5 million. They refused to spend it because they hated Biden. Because they worried the money might go to another state who would use it in a way they wouldn't approve of they didn't return it.

  It seems unfair that ICE can ID us and we can't tell if its an ice agent or a robber/rapist.

  Some talking head was interviewed by the BBC... He laid some of the blame on watch or warning being confusing to people. It took me 45 minutes to find my eyes I rolled them so hard. He also said that if you have a kids camp you should have multiple devices to warn you. There isn't an app to alert you to notices posted on FB or X, but you know a really fucking loud siren gives LOTS of notice something bad is coming & perhaps you should check the news. Rafael Edward Cruz going on and on how we shouldn't politicize the tragedy... I guess he was flying back from Greece and missed the press conferences that were 90% talking about how awesome the GQP leadership and the god emperor were while parents hoping against hope & praying as hard as they could were left waiting for any fragment of information. Press Liar Barbie standing at the podium trying to defend the NWS having done a good job, while members of congress/ICE leadership are screaming they screwed up it can;t be the fault of the emergency managers who were breifed hours before the bad part hit.

  Devoting a large portion of a press conference to patting themselves on the back & praising the god emperor while parents are waiting for any fragment of information. Governor telling parents perhaps they didn't pray hard enough to save their kids. Speaker of the House of Rep. all we can do is pray. ICE Barbie blaming old systems. Member of Congress blaming bureaucrats, trying to shore up it was the fault of anyone but the people alleged in charge & who are supposed to care about citizens. Prayer is an amazing dodge for them being stupid worthless pieces of shit. They made a decision to not have the most basic things required, sirens. Its a proven technology (when maintained) but to save a few bucks on a line item they stopped. People honestly don't understand that the costs of a disaster with no real warning, are way higher than the few bucks it cost to have that sort of system. Mind you they have a magical statewide Blue Alert to fire off everytime something bad happens to a cop, it can be 200 miles away from where you are but they push it to everyone. Databrokers know your location to within meters, but we don't have an alert system that can target. Pushing for vouchers for 'christian' schools matters much more than public safety. An agency that has been DOGEd, had their satellite data turned off, most of their operations the jeebus freaks don't understand stopped b/c they must be wasteful are under attack by the jeebus freaks who tied their hands. They go on and on about how much these things cost... (from a meme I've posted before online, prolly drop it on my bluesky today too.) Image with text on a black background. "Take my $1.37," "I want my PBS," "Take my $.46," "I am all for federal funding of art programs," "Take my $.46," "I love my museums, colleges, and libraries," "Take my $.11," "I support developing minority businesses," "Take my $.66," "I am for entrepreneurship and innovation," "Take my $1.60," "I want us to export more goods overseas," "Take my $0.43," "I would like to see more American manufacturing," "Take my $0.88," "I think community policing needs vast improvement," "Take my $1.48," "I support programs for women," "Take my $1.55," "I believe in due process for all," "Take my $0.48," "We need a civil rights division in the justice department," "Take my $0.38," "I think we need to defend our Mother Earth," "Take my $0.03," "I know more work needs to be done for climate change," "Take my $8.95," "because we need more sustainable energy," "Take my $2.71." "because we should reduce our carbon footprint." "IF SAVING THESE PROGRAMS MEANS I'M OUT $22.36 A YEAR, I'M GOOD. NOW GIVE ME BACK THE $575 I PAY TO KEEP THE WAR MACHINE RUNNING AND THE $368 I PAY IN CORPORATE WELFARE TO BIG OIL AND WALMART."

• On the post: Parents Use Republican’s Own Law Against Them To Keep Their Kids From Being Subjected To Election Conspiracy Theories

  I miss when facts and research were required. It appears that skippy mcdipshit shouldn't hold an office. He wanted to waste money on trump brand bibles, that no sane person thought would ever make into schools. He wants to stroke trumps ego, but he can't even bother to come up with anything remotely beyond, dear leader thinks this is true so it must be to support this bullshit. In keeping with what other GQP lead states are doing expect them to modify or just remove the bill allowing opt outs. See also: Legislature doesn't like the policy the voters voted into law, so they just decided they don't have to let it be what people voted for. They really do hate their citizens thinking for themselves & the fact they believe they can just override the will of the people is a really big issue, pity we have no actual enforcement of these things anymore. But hey at least those transkids aren't winning awards your baby should have gotten for 5th place & you no longer have to think because they will tell you what is acceptable to think. We have always been a revisionist nation, just look at how they turned helping the least of them in the bible into meaning poor poor cancelled white people instead of like dying kids.

  At least they are offical propaganda rather than pretending they aren't nothing but an endless firehose of disinformation. (Looking at you Rupert) This shadowbanning is a 1st amend violation reminds me of the people who believe Bill Gates was trying to chip them, I am obviously very very important so people are taking actions against me... despite no one even knowing they exist. Shadowbanning itself is a conspiracy theory that didn't need to get out of control, but they screwed that up. There is no shadowbanning! Okay we might be shadowbanning, but only bad people(tm). Okay if you say mean things about Elmo we shadowban you. If you question white genocide, we shaodwban you. If you question grok's sudden obsession with repeating lies about South Africa we shadowban you. Since this case is going to implode (even without his favorite pocket judge getting involved) its going to be used to cast any lawsuits about state run media and the rules that should apply as just another crazy person being crazy.

  Gee I wonder if they will organize these records the same what they did with the 'Pizzagate' files so that searching for pizza will result in thousands of results for a word that actually only was said like 7 times, but as it was in all of the replies it helped support the its code for kids! batshit thinking. They are going to seek vengeance for any offense, imagined or misread or misconstrued, and then point at some line of some message removed from all context. Project 2025 wanted to demoralize all of the civil servants and this is just another way to terrorize them.

  That in which I content that this ruling was written to attempt to remove any real reason to win on appeal. That this is going to hit the appeals court who will read it & respond to the appellants with LOLWUT? Then it is on to the Roberts court where they will attempt to find some "orignalist" get out of jail free card (I'm going with we don't have to listen to women, its in the bible card) that they will then sit on for months just to allow trump to keep getting the benefit of his entire unconstitutional attacks on everything for a few more months.

  That Anonymous Coward ( profile ), 05 May, 2025 @ 08:28pm

  Calling it a 'marketplace' is really really generous as they still are the only game in town in some places & all of the regulations seem to exist only to prop up a few monopoly players at the expense of the alleged benefits of the so called free market. They are entrenched and have grown fat & lazy because they haven't had to compete in decades. One merely needs to look at the MNVO boom where somehow these companies are still making money offering "cut rate" plans for sometimes less than half of the carrier who's network it uses offers their direct customers. Perhaps the secret is the magical system where the government runs the lines for a flat fee & various vendors compete to get users for their product & if they mistreat the user they can spend less than 20 min moving to a different provider without any hassle. Its the 21st Century and 5G didn't manage to do anything that was promised or feared... althou it is possible it made some zombies. (looks at congress).
