Thus sayeth Speaker Pelosi, she of no effs to give.
YES! Do it, Mr. President!
apartheid amurkka is there even in blue amurkkka.
Something about moving goal posts comes to mind. Oh well.
It’s more about removing the goal posts and the ground as well.
That part.
The top two tennis players are such whiny babies.
Listen you spoiled brat punks, your opponents have been in the same court with you for the same amount of time and they don’t whine on and on about how hot it is.
Hat-tip to brp’s post on the previous thread.
“It’s a big responsibility as I represent 82 million refugees and all the women in Afghanistan and other countries where people think they should not ride a bike,”

Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton has launched a charitable foundation and pledged £20m to “support, champion and empower young people from under-represented groups in the UK”.
Hamilton, 36, has won the F1 title on seven occasions but is the only black driver in the sport.
He hopes the launch of Mission 44 will help youngsters from all upbringings.
“I experienced first-hand how coming from an under-represented background can affect your future,” he said.
“Luckily for me, I was able to overcome those odds through opportunity and support. I want to ensure other young people from similar backgrounds are able to do the same.
“Change within the industry is long overdue, but we are now firmly on the journey towards transforming it for the better.”
Earlier this month, Hamilton said helping motorsport become more diverse would be “the most valuable” thing he has achieved in his career.

I love that he is no. 44, just like the kenyan.
You’re so clever to notice that, my friend 😎✊🏾
two time jab or weekly swab? no brainer really.
Exactly! We’re tired of the no-vaxxers!!! 😡
Deepest respect and appreciation of Simone Biles for protecting herself and her team. She owes us nothing and has given us such joy.
Yay Team USA! ⛹🏾♀️⛹🏾♀️⛹🏾♀️🏀
As a retired Federal Law Enforcement Officer I’m so glad that the Biden Administration is making it mandatory that federal employees must either get vaccinated or do weekly covid test. Why should someone that’s vaccinated has to risk their life all because of a anti-vaxxer asshole? I’m tempted to drive to my former place of employment and stand in the parking lot and ridicule the ones that refuse to get vaccinated.
So the Gov of Arkansas was booed at a town hall (I presume) … where he was talking about masking or vaccination …?
Reap what you sow Qpublicans!
Also read that a lot of children in Arkansas are in ICU’s… if only Qpublicans were pro-life.
Every opportunity I get on any social media, I never fail to point out how very pro-life these people are. Sometimes, I do a after my comment; sometimes I don’t.
Yeah, people tend to boo you when you would choose to turn their state into a waste-land infected with a preventable plague rather than talking about a shot that can protect the entire state.
I remember…
Welp. 😏
Have you seen this yet? OMG.
😭
Ut Ohhhhh…getting my popcorn ready
Warning: The fall shown here is shocking and upsetting.
Attack and whine = the rethugs party.
Didn’t he vote for the traitorous thug? Now that the snake came back to bite his ass, he gets it now?
what a fucking drama just to vote for the bill that is yet to be voted on.
Covid vaccines: Tourists head to the US to get vaccinated.

and the trumpturds ignore the vaccines that is literally available in their backyards.
China is expanding its capacity to store and launch nuclear missiles, US scientists say.
Satellite images from Xinjiang province in the west of the country suggest it is building a nuclear missile silo field, a report from the Federation of American Scientists (FAS) says.
US defence officials have expressed concern about China’s nuclear build-up.
It is the second new silo field reported to be under construction in western China in the last two months.
The site could house about 110 silos, which are underground facilities used for the storing and launching of missiles.
Last month, the Washington Post newspaper reported 120 silos spotted at a site in a desert area in Yumen, in Gansu province.
The FAS said in its report on Monday that the new site at Hami, about 380 km (240 miles) north-west of Yumen, was at a much earlier stage of development.

I agree completely. If they can’t say publicly what they tell him, it’s like the sound of a tree falling in the forest when you’re in the city, did you hear it? Nope.
he was a corrupt inefficient thug. and yet ….
The UK is already undergoing disruptive climate change with increased rainfall, sunshine and temperatures, according to scientists.
The year 2020 was the third warmest, fifth wettest and eighth sunniest on record, scientists said in the latest UK State of the Climate report.
No other year is in the top 10 on all three criteria.
The experts said that, in the space of 30 years, the UK has become 0.9C warmer and 6% wetter.
The report’s lead author Mike Kendon, climate information scientist at the UK Met Office, told BBC News: “A lot of people think climate change is in the future – but this proves the climate is already changing here in the UK.
“As it continues to warm we are going to see more and more extreme weather such as heatwaves and floods.”

Yay Suni!!! 🥇❤️
Yay Jade! 🤸🏽♂️❤️
Fucking hypocritical assholes did so much damage.
Yay Atlanta masks! 😷
Effing 3rd rate media gushing over a rethug doing the littlest thing.
Wonder if Evil Turtle is afraid that his base might not be around to vote for him.
Nah, he know his state is full of mouthbreathing racists and will vote for him even from their deathbeds. This is the corrupt fucker’s corporate overlords talking.
no way they are gonna go against their klan.
There is a memo circulating on Twitter that was signed by Former Acting Sec of Defense Christopher Miller, that told everyone to stand down…question is…is this a REAL memo and if so can he alone issue that kind of order…..
That January 3rd letter from Chris Miller to Capitol Police is real. Randi Rhodes and others have talked about this memo for months.
WOW…I did not know about the memo…but as Trump was making all these changes in DOD at the end of his term….folks kept asking what was in the works…of course i remember Michael Cohen speaking of how Trump got folks to do his bidding…that it was never actually stated but folks some how knew…i never knew that the was an actual memo that told folks to stand down…so where does the Justice Department go from here…
LIVE NOW:
Saw on the news, a parent (in a red state) whose daughter is intubated – Covid, mentioned having a GoFund Me set up for hospital bills.
Now might not be a bad idea to remind the anti-socialists (snark) … that having universal healthcare might be a good thing.
Then again, voting against one’s own self-interest is a probably a hard habit to break … who knows?
Secretary Pete always nails it!
what a fucked up system that this pedophile is still outside instead of being locked up.
Love Malcolm Nance!
lol. poor things.
math nerds will get it.
yup, time for the stick for the herd (mentality and hence the immunity)
Mr Bean was talented. This moron is just an idiot.
Gawd, the morons people willingly elect to rule over them.
Perfect response. Sad to realize it’s necessary.
The same thugs don’t have a problem wearing a effing white sack over their face.
Now that’s a great response, amk! Perfect. The bastards! (excuse my language!)
poor guy. wimmin/smh.
amendment schmendment, does tribe think the treasonous thugs and the traitorous thug care about them? Stupid clickbait from tribe which just perpetuates the traitorous thug’s big lie. Why doesn’t do something useful for voter rights?
Good morning, Nerdy and TODville!
