  1. That's what I've been asking .. why is there a $10K bounty on women suspected of seeking an abortion, but no $10K or even $100K bounty for men suspected of being rapists?

  2. This sorry episode has shown me how Germany once fell to someone like Trump, with Rupert Murdoch playing the part of Goebbels basically.

  3. "Trump hosted a super-spreader event to honor a justice who would have the government control your body but refuse the duty to care for it, and when the virus he helped go around came around, he availed of the healthcare he would deny others, financed by the taxes he refuses to pay." -Anand Giridharadas.

  4. The "American carnage" Trump spoke about was indeed his dark vision for America's future :(

  5. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And it is good to have a president who can speak the truth, after four years of the last one.

  6. “We gather today due to a selfish man’s injured pride and the outrage of his supporters whom he has deliberately misinformed for the past two months and stirred to action this very morning. What happened here today was an insurrection, incited by the president of the United States.” -- Mitt Romney, 1/6/21

  7. The one good thing Trump did was to reveal to the rest of us that we have so many crazies among us who would go along with whatever nutty idea entered his head at any given moment. It was as if they saw in him one of their own - angry, violent, delusional.

  8.  @andrewvelonis5940  Glad to see this .. I've been asking for awhile why Texas has no $10K or even $100K bounty for turning in suspected rapists. It's as if they don't really care about the problem.

  9. Abbott is what the Brock Turners and Brett Kavanaughs of the world become like when they get older - at least some of them. They never stop being pro-rapey in the same way that shit leopards never lose their spots.

  10. Five years of the dumbest idiots, the ones who probably shouldn't even be trusted to use a glow stick safely, believing the most transparently false nonsense that escaped our Mango Mussolini's lips. Especially when they're beating a police officer with a US flag after invading the capitol.

  11. Unfortunately so many in the US seem intent on giving Republicans dictatorial powers that they'd shriek about if the same things were extended to the other party. These people are pure nutballs :(

  12. The ghosts of the House Un-American Activities Committee members are probably mobilizing over this.

  13. Looks like the clown bus is really going over the cliff now. Anyone got popcorn?

  14. All that was rotten in America flocked to him to do his bidding, too, even as they keep doing 2+2= vote recounts in order to make the answer be 5.

  15.  @nocturnalrecluse1216  You misspelled "regressive right". In voting, as in politics, you vote (R) to move backwards and (D) to move forward.

  16. While carrying a gun, she chases after them calling them crisis actors. Thankfully she's not a guy. She'd be that 6 foot 5 bearded dudebro trying to give unsolicited hugs and unwelcome backrubs to rape victims while telling them that rape is perfectly normal.

  17.  @johnswof  Take a look at Idaho now. It's high time that everyone who refuses a vaccine should sign a waiver giving up hospital care if they should test positive for covid later. No point in those dummies clogging the hospitals when those resources are needed by people who aren't suicidal.

  18. His culties already trust him over what their own eyes tell them :(

  19. Putin never had better foot soldiers here in the US than Trump and his followers.
    39
  20. Germany was like that by 1947. Few would admit to ever having supported the funny mustache guy.

  21. Trump wants to rule, not to lead. Leaders care about the lives of the people - rulers don't.

  22. Santos has been elected, and now the Republicans should be forced to carry him in congress for his full term.
    37
  23. You can't. They're cult members. Heck, some of Charles Manson's former cult members are still lost down that rabbit hole. Trump sucked them down the hole by the millions.
    33
  24. Perhaps it's his odd way of saying that he should be as far under the ground as the other corpses of 170 years ago?
    33
  25. Considering that Trump made no secret of his disdain for democracy, guess that means we have a whole lot of potential insurrectionists here - and/or mentally ill people here.
    32
  26.  @Gulf_of_MEXICO_stupid  Mmm, I think we should borrow a page from Abbott, let the DOJ start offering bounties of $100K for turning in suspected insurrectionists from the 1/6 event or any of their practice events in state capitols last year. A website with pictures/video of the ones still not identified. Between that and covid19 taking them down, there will be fewer GQP votes in the next election.

  27. Even worse, tens of millions of his groupies caught that particular disease from him. The effects are similar to BSE.

  28. The only thing he forgot was that it would be a sniffling failed game show host and serial cheater who nonetheless got the backing of the evangelicals.

  29. "Conspiracy theories don't commit crimes, people do. And if he didn't hear a conspiracy theory from me, he would have just heard it from someone else, or maybe he would just use a hammer instead." -- Tucker 'Axis Sally' Carlson

  30. Let's see how those two potential traitors (Chatfield and Skirkey) deal with the pressure to help Trump steal the election. Trump is the test that the Republicans so far have been mostly failing.

  31. So are his MAGAt Brownshirt irregulars. I have grown fond of the red hats and traitor merch. So good of these people to out themselves. I just wish they had some kind of mark that they can't take off. People deserve to know who harbors hate against their own nation, and who's dumb enough to break the law just because the angry cult leader said so.

  32. Sharing this gem of a comment posted by AC, a few days before the election: As a German this is my take: you have roundabout 50% of your voting society openly embracing fascism. If Biden really wins you will leave this battle fighting for democracy with a cracked skull, broken bones and missing teeth. This should have been a no-brainer. But yes.... America showed that 50% of those who even bothered showing up for a vote have no brain and openly embrace anti-science, anti-immigrant, anti-constitutional tendencies. As much as your comment can serve as a band-aid for the terrorized souls of the other 50%: make no mistake, you will have to cut this cancer out or otherwise it will just continue to grow. What I have seen so far this year exactly mirrors German history 1933-1939. Be warned! And my heartfelt condolences to a possible loss of your democratic Republic!

  33. To be fair, a lot of those supporters aren't good at reading.
    26
  34.  @mariewheeler6522  And yes we must! Every election for the next 20 years. Make the GQP extinct!
    25
  35. As far as we know, his only plan is to steal the election using the DOJ and SCOTUS (his two private legal firms in the DC swamp) for the legal end and DHS / HHS / CBP / FBI / militias / police as his newly-created "Patriot Response Force" to put boots on the ground to handle the large-scale protests that will inevitably follow. From the way Republicans have worked hard to disenfranchise the vote in places that are urban / minority / left-leaning, and their other work to staff the judiciary with incompetent Dominionists, we may safely assume that they know they no longer represent the American people and are preparing to run the country sort of along the lines of an apartheid state like the former Rhodesia.

  36.  @jail-google-execs  Got any proof? Crickets. Dumb troll.
    24
  37. So when Dump said "I'll accept the results - IF I win" .. that begs the question whether his antics since then indicate that he knows he lost.
    24
  38. Trump is openly calling for violence yet again. So stand back but stand by. Your will to defend democracy may be tested.
    21
  39.  @taterkaze9428  Which is precisely why we all have things to do, like these: Make sure all the people who just turned 18 since the last election, or who will have by the next election, get registered to vote. Make sure everyone has the ID's necessary to vote. Make sure everyone knows where the polling places are. Make sure everyone has transportation there, and the comforts they may need for a potentially long wait in line. We can do this.

  40. All that ever meant under Trump was "many are getting arrested".
    21
  41. @Thomas Askins Oh really. Show us the corporate statement from Goodyear that says that. Betcha you cannot, which makes you a complete liar on the subject.
    21
  42.  @ceciliadanielsson9530  Another bit of truth he speaks at his rallies is, "You knew I was a snake when you took me in!"

  43.  @nocturnalrecluse1216  Re "The far left is just as bad as any far right" << You're dead wrong there, comrade. The far right, starting from even before the Nov-2020 elections, launched an assault on democracy that's still ongoing. They did more damage to the Capitol than the confederate army ever did. I see your both-sides-are-the-same nuttery and I raise you this whopper: "The stage 4 cancer was very aggressive, true, but the chemotherapy and radiation treatments were very aggressive too. So there was aggression on both sides. So both sides were just the same really."

  44. Is the second one a 90s/00s 6-part series where the long name is "BBC: A Warning From History: Rise of the Nazis"?

  45. Remember, Trumpty Dumpty's "My Advisors Get Arrested" red hats are made in China, along with all the other tacky merch from his grifter klan.
    19
  46. @Jonny smithy Why, they will blame the Democrats, of course. Trumpty Dumpty and his followers got divorced from reality a long ways back.

  47.  @jimmims5622  Bounty hunters (licensed) have always been part of the scene. What's new with this is letting private citizens get in on it, and offering them cash. Erich Honecker would recognize the tactic, he used it extensively in East Germany.

  48. Don't care. I take his statement to be an imperative. Let's not keep him from learning an important lesson the hard way.

  49. This is what the Brock Turners and the Brett Kavanaughs of the world turn into when they get older :(

  50. That "do your research!" quote was priceless! You nearly owed me a keyboard! :)
