US Politics, January 2022 — a pro-God, pro-family, pro-bitcoin state

Has Trump led a Let’s Go Brandon chant at a rally yet?

My first campaign ad, ‘37 Seconds.’ #JustLikeMe

I hope this ad works to not only destigmatize the use of marijuana, but also forces a new conversation that creates the pathway to legalize this beneficial drug, and forgive those who were arrested due to outdated ideology. pic.twitter.com/G0qKvmUGKD

Do you want to IMPLODE the filibuster so the Dems can RAM their voting rights legislation through Congress?

lmao @ those results

even if he does get the "joke" I think his spirit is too broken to do something like this

johnson is a moron but that how to get engagement

the democrats star in ramming speed, featuring congress as "speed"

Ramming Their Agenda, Book 1 of my DC erotica series.

When Sinema pegs Romney, oh man…

enough of the fanfic

If love is good, let's get to rammin'

hope your high school classmate and Crenshaw get launched into the sun

And take Three Doors Down with them

Lol at “Camryn”

Important reporting on Biden's pandemic plan & need to revive it, by @ddiamond in @washingtonpost

“Everyone had a failure to anticipate delta & omicron, the administration included” - @ASlavitt

Let us learn -- and prepare for next surge nowhttps://t.co/CAFZBFD3Qt

‘The Administration didn’t foresee variants’ is worse than just saying ‘whatever, we just needed you fuckers to go back to work.’

Why do you say that?

Maybe it feels good to you to have a White House that didn't comprehend that viruses mutate?

Anyway, lol

.@IsaacDovere reports: “top Democratic politicians, campaign officials and operatives say the White House political operation is heading into the midterms unprepared and unresponsive even to basic requests for help or information.”https://t.co/8jihJhO2nB

feels almost .. geriatric

Gotta schedule that meeting before the afternoon Matlock reruns.

jfc instilling some real confidence over there

Biden going to be answering questions at some point today apparently

The White House should've thunk of this last March, but, still, I'm impressed the website hasn't crashed.

As for that CNN article *shrug* I mean, what, a couple dozen pundit/consulting class hacks didn't get phone calls? Mark Penn and Rahm Emmanuel types?

The White House is in serious shit. They bungled masks and tests badly. I'm terrified about November. But the bleating from the permanent political class doesn't worry me.

I'm impressed the website hasn't crashed.

This website?

https://special.usps.com/testkits

Yeah. I just ordered for my parents in 30 seconds.

i just get this:

"error": "QWNjZXNzIG1haW4gcHJvZ3JhbS4gQWNjZXNzIG1haW4gc2VjdXJpdHkuIEFjY2VzcyBtYWluIHByb2dyYW0gZ3JpZC4="
}

but maybe it's because i'm geoblocked

Probably!

I gotta say, I was able to order in less than a minute on my phone last night after hearing about the site.

i ordered for myself in about 30 seconds and it went so fast that i put i ordered them for some friends and family as well while I was at it, it's fine

They should do this with bandaids, too, because you can never find a bandaid when you need one, and with all these people heading back to work, there are going to be a lot of paper cuts.

maybe that could be the initiative that heals america's bipartisans divisions and helps us all learn how to get together again

Not so fast, what color are the bandaids!?!?!

or create a website where you can enter the contact info of a GOP relative or friend and -- presto! The federal government replaces them with a Dem.

Intervention.gov (Ivermectin.gov will get you there, too)

what color are the bandaids!?!?!

free spongebob bandaids for all!

difference between USDS and GDS is that error message and what i get at https://test-for-coronavirus.service.gov.uk/order-lateral-flow-kits from the US, i.e.

There is a problem

If you're in the UK

Sorry, there is a problem with the service.

Please try again later.

If the problem continues, call the contact centre.

UK-only contact centre

England, Wales and Northern Ireland: call 119 (free from mobiles and landlines)
Scotland: call 0300 303 2713 (charged at your standard network rate)

Open every day, 7am to 11pm.
If you're outside the UK

You cannot access UK coronavirus services from outside the UK. For example, ordering a test, registering a test kit or reporting a result.

Travel to the UK and how to get tested before you travel

that's because americans love the matrix so much that this makes more sense than words

maybe sic made the website

I mean, what, a couple dozen pundit/consulting class hacks didn't get phone calls? Mark Penn and Rahm Emmanuel types?

Well… and the Senator who’s heading the Senate midterm election committee. I don’t know if I’d call him a pundit?

after a certain point, once you've seen the low standard on display at america's airports, its pathetic rail network, its byzantine and corrupt system of health provision, its public health websites, the new york city subway, the total lack of any domestic high-end manufacturing capacity, the loss of its auto industry etc etc you have to sort of think, this place sucks and nobody even has the pride to do anything about it

This qualifies as gaslighting, right?

BIDEN: "I did not anticipate that there would be such a stalwart effort to make sure that the most important thing was that president Biden didn't get anything done."

"What are republicans for? What are they for? Name me one thing they're for," he says.

no one could have foreseen that osama bin laden would use a plane as a bomb

in 2008/9 it was kind of newsworthy that on inauguration night (or was it 2008 election night?) mcconnell and boehner and gang were meeting and agreeing to oppose obama 100% no matter what. by 2020, it was so obvious that it was the GOP agenda that no one even bothers to hide it, and in fact it's more like a litmus test top being in the gop

It's really depressing, just this dying-empire vibe.

The president could get away with such addled twaddle if Manchin and Sinema didn't exist and he could rack up the legislative victories

― papal hotwife (milo z),

I'd call it "sending signals," which is more legit.

I’m all for dying empire, good riddance.
