Arizona GOP lawmakers are at it again, always finding new ways to waste time and taxpayers’ money with blatantly unconstitutional bills. The latest one on their agenda? Senate Bill 1279, also known as the Reject Escalating Satanism by Preserving Essential Core Traditions Act, or RESPECT. This bill aims to prohibit satanic displays on public property in Arizona, because apparently, the GOP is the arbiter of what is acceptable on public land.
Now, let me start by saying that I have no personal affiliation with the satanic community or any religious group for that matter. But what bothers me is the sheer audacity and hypocrisy of these lawmakers.… Continue reading
Republican Senator Says He’d Totally Do a Coup if He Gets the Chance
As I read through the various comments and reactions to the statement made by the Republican Senator, I am left in shock and disbelief. How can someone in a position of power openly express their willingness to commit a coup without facing any consequences? It is a clear violation of our democratic principles and an affront to the Constitution they are supposed to uphold.
This is not the first time we have witnessed such alarming statements from politicians, who seem to prioritize power and wealth over the well-being of the country and its citizens.… Continue reading
Disillusioned Americans are losing faith in almost every profession. It’s a troubling reality that seems to be growing more apparent with each passing day. People are becoming increasingly skeptical of those in positions of power, whether they be politicians, CEOs, or even journalists. The trust that was once bestowed upon these professionals is eroding, leaving many feeling disillusioned and betrayed.
One of the primary reasons for this loss of faith is the blatant disregard for the majority of citizens in favor of catering to the wealthy elite. Just under half of the country wants to continue to cut taxes for the wealthy, eliminate the minimum wage, and remove regulations that protect the average worker.… Continue reading
“He has dementia”: Internet erupts after Trump suggests he looks like Elvis
When I first read the headline, I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. Another day, another outrageous comment from Donald Trump. This time, it was his claim that he looks like Elvis that sent the internet into a frenzy. People were quick to jump on the bandwagon, calling him delusional, vain, and even suggesting that he has dementia. While I don’t want to downplay the seriousness of dementia or make light of mental health issues, I do think it’s interesting how this particular comment has struck a nerve with so many.… Continue reading
Marjorie Taylor Greene, a prominent figure in Congress, has recently faced public mockery for struggling to pronounce the word “indictable” and read a long number. While some may argue that this is merely a case of mispronunciation or a simple mistake, there is a deeper concern at play here.
As citizens, we rely on our elected officials to be knowledgeable, articulate, and competent in their roles. The fact that Greene, as a member of Congress, struggles with basic reading and pronunciation is alarming. It raises questions about her suitability for the position and whether she possesses the necessary qualifications and intellect to make informed decisions that affect our lives.… Continue reading
Elon Musk’s company directors have allegedly expressed the feeling of an “expectation” to use drugs with him in order to avoid upsetting the billionaire, according to a recent report. This revelation paints a troubling picture of corporate governance within Musk’s companies and raises questions about the overall stability of such a model.
It is astonishing to think that the use of drugs has become a prerequisite for maintaining a good relationship with the CEO. This volatile behavior exhibited by Musk could, in part, be attributed to his drug use. The real-life version of the Wolf of Wall Street comes to mind, with the drugs explaining his irrationality and unpredictability.… Continue reading
As I sit here, attempting to process the sheer audacity and cruelty of the words I have just read, I can’t help but feel a profound sense of exhaustion. How did we get to this point? How did we reach a place where Republican congressmen are openly discussing the idea of throwing migrants from helicopters? It’s almost too surreal to comprehend.
But then again, when I reflect on the current state of our political climate, perhaps I should not be entirely surprised. This is a party that claims to uphold “Family Values” while advocating for policies that tear families apart. This is a party that prides itself on being “Pro-life,” yet shows a shocking disregard for the lives of innocent migrants seeking a better future.… Continue reading
This Lawmaker Wants to Jail People for Watching Porn. Oklahoma lawmaker Dusty Deevers is a hardcore Christian nationalist who believes the government should “terrorize evildoers”.
In a world where personal freedoms and privacy should be valued and protected, it’s disheartening to come across individuals like Dusty Deevers, a lawmaker who wants to jail people for watching porn. I can’t help but wonder what motivates someone to be so obsessed with dictating how other people live their lives. Is it jealously? Is it their own deep-seated unhappiness that leads them to want everyone else to be miserable too?
The irony here is that a man with a name like Dusty Deevers could easily be mistaken for a porn star himself.… Continue reading
Trump Allies Pledge ‘Holy War’ Against Taylor Swift
It’s truly astonishing to witness the lengths that some Trump allies are willing to go to attack Taylor Swift, all because she dared to speak out about the importance of voting. She never explicitly endorsed any candidate, simply encouraging her fans to exercise their right to vote. Yet, the reaction from the Trump camp has been nothing short of alarming.
My biggest concern in all of this is the safety of Taylor Swift. With the level of vitriol and hatred that can be found within certain factions of Trump’s base, there is a legitimate fear that someone may try to physically harm her.… Continue reading
Kids terrified as Republican lawmaker flashes gun during school’s statehouse visit
It is deeply disheartening to read about incidents like the one involving a Republican lawmaker who thought it was appropriate to flash a gun in front of a group of schoolchildren during a statehouse visit. The fact that this lawmaker recently pled guilty to DUI and leaving the scene of an accident only adds to the disturbing nature of this incident. It raises serious questions about the judgment and character of the individuals we have entrusted to make decisions on our behalf.
What struck me the most about this story is not just the irresponsible actions of this specific lawmaker, but the larger issue it raises about the fear and distress children experience when confronted with firearms.… Continue reading
