I use Opera on a Mac for all my Bing-based Edge-recommending needs.

They would vote for him again anyway. We need to get used to this: The only thing he could do that would stop them from supporting him is literally murdering them, and with their dying breaths, they’d whisper, “I probably did something to deserve it. MAGA!..”

I’d buy one for about tree-fiddy.

If they’re genuinely apologetic and recognize they made a terrible choice, then yes… Welcome back to reality.

Certains d’entre nous parlent un peu de français, alors pourquoi pas?

Actually, it expects them not to, so it can yell about how unfair that is, and the Trump cult will eat it up.

Concentration camps. Call them what they are.

I’d rather have mandatory cognitive tests. Start them at fifty, since some people develop early-onset dementia. Fail a cognitive test, you’re out, regardless of age.

This is just false. Joe Manchin wasn’t the one who “wrote it.” It is a pared-down (yes, partially by Joe Manchin) version of the Build Back Better plan, which President Biden proposed. Lots of Democratic legislators in the House and Senate and their staffers actually wrote the text of the final bill.

Saying Joe Manchin wrote it is not just wrong, it’s egregiously misleading.

McConnell, you motherfucker, you could have stopped this. You could have had your caucus in the Senate vote to convict, and ended the nightmare. You don’t get to complain about the “very dangerous world” you helped create.

I fucking hate that this is political. It shouldn’t be. LGBTQ people exist, and depicting them in books is perfectly normal. What’s not normal is the psychotic religious freak-out in response.

I wonder what it’s like to be a genuine, true believer in the “deep state,” then to be put in charge of part of it. Suddenly, you’re getting actual, internal reports on the activities of a group of people you’ve been certain for years are Satan incarnate.

How does the conspiracy theory survive that? I mean, of course it does survive, because these people are actually insane, but how?

Believe me, I’m not happy about this. It’s a very fatalistic view of times to come. I just don’t see how we stop it at this point. The people voted for this.

Fair point, but since they’re planning to basically obliterate the IRS, who is going to check that you’ve paid your federal taxes?

Let’s think this through… The US Department of Education’s functions are primarily:

1. Establishing policies on federal financial aid for education and distributing as well as monitoring those funds.
2. Collecting data on America’s schools and disseminating research.
3. Focusing national attention on key educational issues.
4. Prohibiting discrimination and ensuring equal access to education.

Regarding #1, blue states don’t receive nearly as much in financial aid for schools as red states. So abolishing the DOE will reduce the tax burden on citizens living in blue states, at the expense of schools in red states.

Regarding #2, without the DOE compiling this information, it will be up to schools themselves and private research organizations. Badly-performing, severely under-funded schools in red states will, of course, not be able to. Not that they would want to anyway, because without federal assistance, these schools will be in a state of collapse.

Regarding #3, blue states will just focus attention on key educational issues for themselves, while red states focus on fixing their problems by getting bibles into classrooms.

Regarding #4, red states will rapidly descend into systematic discrimination again.

End result: No one will want to hire “graduates” from red states.

This is a self-own of astonishing proportions. The blue states that don’t heavily depend on the DOE will manage, while the educational infrastructure in the red states completely falls apart. And businesses in need of skilled employees who can, y’know, read will recruit primarily in blue states.

And the leopards will roam freely through the streets of MAGA-America, feasting on faces in unprecedented numbers.

No, I refuse to believe that’s ever hap-

Motherfucker…

Might as well define the Earth as flat and the Moon as green cheese while he’s at it.

Do these fuckers have literally nothing else to do than wage wars against reality?

“Plenty” was not enough. The pre-election criticism looks like it worked exactly as intended.

Which non voters are you talking about? The article is about politically engaged voters and voters who don’t follow politics, both of which are voters.

You have to understand, the people who constantly attacked Harris before the election now have to figure out some way to make her just as bad as Trump, to excuse their own behavior. Is it disgusting? Yes. Is it reprehensible? Yes. Is it absolutely predictable as a means of trying to escape responsibility for the rancid shit hurricane that will be Trump Part 2? Yes.
