"Drag Queen story times. Never once heard anyone talk about their junk"

As a tax preparer for folks in the arts, I have several Drag Queens as clients. I guarantee you, they aren't thinking about sexing the children. They're thinking about how to deduct the mileage, hoping they'll remember to pick-up eyeliner on the way, and wondering how to get kid's puke off chiffon.

You know...glamorous stuff.

Conservatives have repeatedly claimed that ActBlue was acting as a conduit for foreign contributions. In December, an analysis of the fundraising network's records by Republican Representative Bryan Steil not only failed to advance the theory but instead found proof that the platform's automated program to reject donations from foreign nationals was working effectively.

So four months ago, a Republican investigated them, and not only found no malfeasance, but discovered the counter-measures were working well.

Why, if THAT's not a reason to investigate them, what is??? I mean, it's not like the DOJ is committing LAWFARE, amirite?

"Liberals cannot defend ActBlue - verified donations from individuals done thousands of times in small amounts that total into the hundreds of thousands of dollars."

So, basically pennies compared to the meme-coin grift, where Trump and cronies may pocket $100 million, while investors lost $2 billion.

It's like someone thinking the inheritance tax needs to have a lower cap... but Grantor Remainder Annuity Trusts are okay.

"I showed you countless examples of the federal government partnering with tech giants to silence "misinformation."

You showed where the government pointed out posts violating THE HOST's Terms of Service, and the editorial board. agreed. That most decisively is NOT censorship.

What you DIDN'T SHOW was any occasion of the editorial board disagreeing with the government, AND THEN FORCED to censor something against their will. You know...ACTUAL CENSORSHIP. At least nothing anyone could point to.

Even Zuckerberg never volunteered specifics, only making vague references to feeling gov't pressure. Obviously, if it was anything of heft, Zuck would've made it public. IOW, the "disagreements" had to be on the level of EAT TIDE PODS.

"over crap Trump is doing or is alleged to be doing."

Threatening law firms who don't bend to his political will? Alleged, or doing?

Denying Due Process? Alleged, or doing?

Ignoring a 9-0 SCOTUS ruling...alleged, or doing?

Marketing a grift-coin, knowing he'll get royalties FROM THE TRANSACTIONS? Alleged, or doing?

You can't decide?!? What a farkin' coward.

"Your outrage is extremely selective."

LOL. You SCREECH when you can't find lawfare, and dead silent when Trump threatens unbending law firms. HACK.

"No matter how much smoke you ferociously defended the Clinton Foundation, the Biden crime syndicate, the censorship regime..."

NONE of which you ever offered a scintilla of proof over:

The Clinton Foundation was gone over with a fine-toothed comb, and after that, Republicans decided to go after Benghazi...where HRC wasn't even in the military chain of command.

The "Biden Crime Syndicate" turned out to be a nothing burger, save for stuff you're praising Jarvaka for doing.

And "The censorship regime"?!? Again, the next piece of proof, will be your first. Your ultimate theory is if the editorial board agreed with the government suggestion, THAT WAS CENSORSHIP. It's not.

Once again, three pitches, three swings and misses. Go warm the bench.

"I was joking"

I wasn't.

Why aren't you starting threads screaming about CORRUPTION and LAWFARE and CENSORSHIP, when all three are staring you in the face?

No more having to prove LAWFARE where there is none, or CENSORSHIP when you can't give a single example, or CORRUPTION regarding a 100% transparent Foundation.

If I didn't know better, I'd think you're just a partisan hack, who'll slurp-and-barf ANYTHING Trump schittts out.

Could you imagine three years ago, today you'd be eschewing Due Process?!? And ONLY because of the letter after the name. THAT's water-carrier status.

"$25,000? That's it? "

Sorry, I forgot: the "news" outlets you frequent don't report stuff like this:

Tesla earned $10.7 billion selling climate compliance tax credits over the past decade"a total that accounted for a third of the company's profits during that period.

They also sold just under $600 million in the last quarter, making $2.7 billion in the last year, after averaging $220 million/quarter over the last 9+ years.

"then change on a dime against the company that did more than ANY OTHER in reducing CO2 because their hate for Trump outweighs all else."

EVs have nothing to do with it, other than as a replacement for Musk. It's due to the public's disdain for Elon's chainsaw method, his lack of empathy regarding the disruption in people's lives and businesses, and his sadistic glee surrounding it all.

"as such, the sales or profits THIS YEAR are not actually very meaningful. "

Riiiiiiight.

" Bondi drop the investigation and Adams facilitates ICE."

Progress.

It usually takes $25,000 for Bondi to drop an investigation.

"You cheered and defended a vast censorship regime."

Nonsense. I demanded you prove your censorship claims, and you failed time after time. You even blamed Biden for government actions taken in 2020!

Then Trump started threatening law firms and demanding 9-figures of political lobbying, AND YOU STAYED SILENT. He threatened to ban unfriendly news outlets (let's be serious, un-slurpy outfits), AND YOU STAYED SILENT. And that was AFTER creating a pure-corruption grift-coin...AND YOU STAYED SILENT.

What's the matter...too busy carrying all that water?

"Most markets 5k wouldn't house them for what?... three months?"

Republicans want the potential mothers who are bad at math to procreate.

More Republican Math!

"You are implying that because they happen daily THAT is why they receive little to no coverage."

No. I'm stating full-out you can't link to a President doing this in our lifetimes.

Good effing God, man, are you trying to look dumb? Or is it you can't bring yourself to stand up against Trump, for (R)easons?

"FEMA is just a department of the government to help during disasters."

Which we all contribute to, based (in part) on ability, while it's doled out by a government to those they decide need it most. Hmmmm...

Sounds like the collective collectively decided it was best for the collective good. Hence, a Socialist aspect, within a Capitalistic society.

"post is pure projection"

Riiiiiight.

On your landing page, there are over a half-dozen posts with references to dung, dumpster sex, crossdressing, creeping on kids, gay sex producing a child, and penis problems.

"textbook..."

Yeah, pretty clear.

"you're idiotic post"

Classic Self-Retort!

"Because nobody wants to acknowledge that position"

Yet they're quick to adopt updated parameters ALL THE TIME, for the purposes of talking points.

I realized that when the Republicans who AUTHORED the tax bill, putting lots of credits onto the 1040, complained "less people were paying taxes"...after changing the equation that way.

Here's a quick example: When I was a kid, if the family up the street paid $1000 in income taxes that year, they'd be marked as "paying income taxes", because, of course, they paid income taxes. If they also got $100 a month in welfare because they had three kids, they'd still be marked as "paying income taxes"...because, again, they paid income taxes.

That same situation today would include the welfare ON the tax return, so they'd get a $200 refund....and they'd be marked as NOT paying income taxes.

There are a half-dozen things like this on the 1040, like CTC, AOC, ACTC, and the Child Care Credit.

"you mean vote to restrict abortion access?"

I mean like make mifepristone illegal, or suing a doctor in, say, Kansas for performing a legal abortion on a raped 9-yr old from Texas.

"You understand the problem here....there is no place for such a person I describe."

Look in the mirror for the culprit. Republicans built that.

"Once someone says "I'm against abortion".....nothing else they say will matter "

I disagree; I always ask the follow-up questions, to see if they're pro-child (fine and good), or pro forced-birth. For example, wanting Head Start to end tells me plenty.

"...this morning, (Trump) endorsed the House budget resolution, which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

The official HoR line is "We're not going to cut Medicaid...

And then they leave out the salient part:

...We're going to demand SOMEONE WITH A DIFFERENT NAME cuts it."

And all to borrow A NEW $5 TRILLION, OF WHICH ~$3 TRILLION WILL GO TO THE WORLD'S WEALTHIEST 1/10th of 1%.

" talking to young children about their junk"

Is there NO Republican who can post without including their loathsome fantasies???

If I was in any conversation where one participant kept bringing up child molesting and/or truckstop sex, I'd conclude the problem was with him.

"are you saying you respect the opinions of those who are truly pro-life?"

Yes, as long as they don't make that decision for others.

"or have you simply convinced yourself there are no such people"

Convinced? No. Observed, yes. I certainly don't see any Republicans championing parenting, outside of tax cuts they can put on the 1040, to claim "less people are paying taxes".

"just butcher them all before they're born...."

If you actually cared for them AFTER they were born, you'd have a point. Instead, it's obvious you're using women as a political prop, while trying to "control them down there", as my bride so succinctly puts it.

" I ignore you when you troll and erect straw man arguments."

Stating you're against a clear right in the Constitution is NOT a strawman. it's an observation. And a fairly obvious one at that, considering how you SCREECH at censorship and lawfare, until Trump's actions smack you in the face.

If you were an honest broker, you'd be posting threads daily about Trump's intimidation of law firms, and his attempt to force bribery payments, not to mention grift-coins, and threats to prosecute with no known accusation, aka LAWFARE.

Instead, you're not only silent, you're posting BS stories to distract. Such a good little toady!

MORE WATER, GUNGA BELLE!!!
