US Politics, September 2024 -- “I’m Not Going to Apologize For Posting a Joke”

Ohio has become “Ohio” in the Gen-Z slang sense of the term.

to be fair these bomb threats could be coming from anywhere

xp - they wouldn't call it that otherwise :( it's a real tragedy. i am not trying to claim that Ohio was a paradise (a rusty rollercoaster that threatens to fling its riders into the air, maybe)

but i grew up intensely aware of politics and while it was bad in a number of ways, it was not this bad.

Is there evidence this vileness is worse than other GOP vileness? Are conservative Catholics speaking out?

no they're complaining because trump isn't extreme enough

JD Vance needs to be censured by the Senate.

I almost wrote something that would get me in legal trouble.

"Is it what the Church teaches?"

lol, when was the last time someone saw a priest? they are afraid to go outside. probably get moldy tomatoes thrown at them.

i am not trying to claim that Ohio was a paradise

my impression is that this is the result of 'outside agitators' rather than Ohio residents? it seems the Haitian population has been fairly well accepted in Springfield, tempered by concerns about inadequate infrastructure, schools, etc.

JD Vance is a trad cath convert who probably goes to some off-brand Opus Dei Latin Mass place where they wear capes (that is a a thing, apparently) and jibber in Latin.

He probably is a sede vacantist, too

Someone should ask Vance whether or not his wife should have the right to vote.

you need this press conference in your life...

Low energy, not exciting at all. Sad!

I can't believe he's in California... I knew something smelled funny this morning

you should've added a trigger warning to that: it's Trump doing his usual deranged rambling, but LIVE!

unfortunately there's developed this whole Ayn Rand-ian strata of tech bros here in CA now (Thiel, Musk, etc.), vile people

this is just his extended intro. he will be taking questions from all the best people.

RADICAL LEFT MARXIST FACIST

This Haitians-eating -pets thing is TIP of the iceberg when it comes to the horribleness in OH that I’m referring to. I don’t have the time nor energy to list the ways.

she wants to dismember ice

BREAKING

Sources close to Jared and Ivanka say that privately, the couple opposes making bomb threats to elementary schools.

Okay he just claimed that the Biden administration has chartered flights full of 'illegal aliens' INTO the U.S.

there's some of that invaluable Loomer intel

He's still angry at David Muir

when he says that people from 168 countries have come into the country all i can say is: think of the food trucks! #win/win

lol, david muir's hair was better 5 years ago. quite the tidbit there.

he's really going after the FBI - history has shown again & again that's not a wise thing to do

Still too scared to go after the CIA. Their shooters don’t miss.

Oh, is this asshole still blathering on?

(Trump in Cali, not anyone on this thread)

he just said "aeroplane" and pronounced the "o"

he does that! like monty burns.

'Laura Loomer is welcome on my fabulous flying machine any time!'

Many xxxxposts but my girlfriend asked me to explain who Laura Loomer is, so I was revisiting old ILX posts, found this tweet and cracked up

police inform Laura Loomer that Twitter isn't pressing charges and she can stay chained to their door as long as she wants

Oh, I bet she’s welcome to

all the questions are about Loomer! lol

"She's a free spirit"

did he say he doesn't know her, never met her?

In a grade 7 class right now, they're working, and I've got this on low volume. Conservative southwestern Ontario town (Letterkenny town)--I know at least 50% of their parents are Trump people.

"We call it a caravan..."

lol, "a lot of states don't have Pacific Oceans"

True, that.

It would be hilarious if one of the boats in the background started blasting the Beyonce song the Harris/Walz campaign favors while he’s talking

"The smelt is not making it anyway"

OMG

A harsh toke for the smelts

lmao Truth Social just went up 12% because Trump said he's not gonna sell it, these dumb motherfuckers

25% now!! fuckin lol

Ok one more thing about Loomer, isn’t one of Trumps central traits that he’s perpetually horny? And isn’t it incredibly obvious that his own wife won’t give him the time of day?
