GOV. WALZ: "The biggest myth is that this guy understands business. He's an absolute abject failure at business — the irony is calling Democrats socialists when I am begging for free markets here to allow capitalism to work. Trump’s the one with government interference." (From @atrupar.com )

It’s been a long time since I was in college, but we stayed away from the Young Republicans because they were sexist racist assholes. Everyone on campus knew that about them. 🤷🏻‍♀️

How much would it take for you to say out loud that Donald J. Trump has a perfect body? GW Bush and Barack Obama were both in great shape. Ronny Jackson also said a bullet track "produced a 2 cm wide wound that extended down to the cartilaginous surface of the ear."

Syrian President Ahmad Al-Shar’a has reportedly arrived in Moscow, an unusual twist, considering ousted former president Bashar al-Assad, a longtime Putin ally, is also living in exile in the same city.

Charlie Hurt insisted that the ACA (Affordable Care Act) also known as Obamacare was unpopular. He also argued far more people have been punished by Obamacare. I found TWO sources that showed the ACA was quite popular. It also greatly reduced the number of uninsured Americans.

Great thread!
If I hadn’t gotten a colonoscopy 10 years ago, I’d likely be dead. Had a pre-cancerous polyp.
Had no symptoms, felt fine.
Early detection is the way to go!

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.

The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.

Nothing wrong with being gay.
There IS something seriously weird about Mike Johnson.
Has anyone ever met anyone like him? A strange elf who says he’s a Christian, but lies all the time?
I haven’t.
He’s always given me creepy horror movie vibes.
