Wow. I'd make a snarky remark, but this is such a free kick.

Well, it's true. He's doing nothing to stop border crossers from South Africa.

The fact that there is no relevant border for them to slip across doesn't change that.

How can Biden be doing nothing if these people are being apprehended? This makes no sense.

The logic would seem to be that he needs to stop them before they enter illegally.

Are they illegally pole vaulting across the Atlantic Ocean?

Is the idea to bomb South Africa? Because I am opposed to bombing any nation with a penguin population.

It's a way to end an argument I suppose., because I'm as confused as fuck. What does this mean, because Australian High Schools don't have metal detectors (except strangely the super rich private schools like Kings or Hills Grammar) we don't need a second amendment but you guys do because...? Also, and I'm trying to be as delicate as possible here, doesn't Cawthorn realise he is never going to follow his own advice?

Seriously, didn't Twitter up their character limit so there would be less incoherent rambling?

It's because the right believe that Australia is a brutal totalitarian state because of covid policies.

FTFY

Back in the 1980s, I used to see occasional 'weird news' columns in the English press, which talked of bizarre happenings - urban legends - as real things. These were almost always things that happened in Australia or New Zealand.

When I got to Australia, I discovered that Australian newspapers ran similar stories, but that these stories always took place in the UK or Ireland.

The editors had column inches to fill, so they put in harmless but entertaining fiction set far enough away as to make checking the purported facts impractical for their readers.

The only differences today are that the fiction is no longer as harmless; And that the rise of the Internet has proven that it was never so much that it was difficult that prevented people from fact checking, rather it is that people don't want to check. The typical approach to truth is to decide whether you want to believe or disbelieve a claim, and then declare it true (or false) without further investigation.

That's likely always been the case. The internet just makes it more blatant.

Africans (Kenyans, at least) are known for running fast. They're running across the ocean.

(And, yes, go fast enough and you can run across water. For something human sized in Earth's gravity that's far above maximum running speed, though.)

'They're making a mockery out of it': Mike Lindell despairs on live TV over his election lawsuit flop

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell expressed despair over the weekend after his proposed election lawsuit failed to get the support of a single state attorney general.


During his 96-hour "Thanks-A-Thon" broadcast on Sunday, Lindell admitted that he was "frustrated" after he had lashed out at a Christian radio network just one day earlier.

"You know how many people have worked hard giving up everything they had because they know this country is gone," Lindell opined. "I was angry, it came out wrong -- probably came out wrong -- angry and I'm frustrated. I've had it."

"It's like we've worked so hard here," he continued, "working so hard to get to something that should have been so simple. Open up the [voting] machines. Of course, every state was illegal."

I can't quite tell if that is a comforting emoji or a tea-bagging emoji. I guess it doesn't matter.

Works both ways in this case.

 

[Patooka]

Umm...Rand, you're saying the quiet part out loud again. People might think you're against voting or something.

 

[Jimmy Higgins]

So, the best way to steal an election is by convincing people to legally vote.

This is that Orwell thing again.

Is it true that blonds Twitterers have more fun?

I stumbled upon an article about David Brody, his unusually stupid and racist tweet, and the responses it got. Brody is a Christian TV personality who thinks Donald Trump was sent to us by God.

Enjoy!

 

[Jimmy Higgins]

People get stranded on the highway, and the first place his mind goes is #BLM?

*checks the tweet*

Oh gosh, it is even worse. I gave the guy too much credit. He took a picture of a local road with a coating of snow. What a dumbass. Let's go Brody.

Meanwhile, winning remark is "Watch out for that dangerous black ice, David".

Can't pass the purity test. Cruz is a TINO.

*What's with Tucker needing terrorists to to be "foreign combatants" to be labeled "terrorists"? Violence for a political goal = terrorist.


*From the reading. I can't watch a Tucker & Ted video. I just can't.
