Absolutely. He is a professional wrestler, so right there, he’s got a 98% chance of being a hardcore libertarian. Even if a professional wrestler espouses left-leaning thoughts you have to assume it’s a work or not a deeply held belief (e.g. CM Punk)

The regime gets more deranged every day. A rightwing conspiracy theorist assassinated a Democratic lawmaker - which the attorney general presents as an example of leftwing political violence in order to justify an authoritarian crackdown on the opposition…

We’re in incredibly dangerous territory.

Bondi: "We've been living through a horrific cycle of political violence in this country ... night after night antifa wrecks havoc on the streets of our cities. In Minnesota, a gunman murdered a state lawmaker and her husband."

This empty-headed dumbfuck IMPLIES an anti-ICE stance. Meanwhile, my world champion isn't implying anything. He is out right saying “fuck ICE”

Last time there was a No Kings protest in Minnesota the speaker-emerita, her husband and dog were murdered, a state senator and his wife were shot, the gunman was at large and 25,000 people still showed up. All you fascists are bound to lose.

Micah @rincewind.run · 6d

they are clearly trying to terrify everyone out of showing up to the No Kings protest and I simply do not think it is going to work

see you all there

Sen. Roger Marshall: "October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We'll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it."

The Speaker of the House has firm views that Bad Bunny is a terrible pick for singing at the Super Bowl, but hasn't had time to watch the President's speech to our military leadership or form an opinion whether furloughed federal workers should be paid or Illinois' governor should be thrown in jail.

please do not air ads for immigration customs enforcement (ICE) during all (AEW) programming as I am sure, ice is, at best, highly controversial government agency. Obviously, A&W programming Garner lucrative audience, but I think there are at least two reasons not to hear these ads.

first, the AW fan base is unique in its intensity and it’s generally liberal political leanings any review of social media (I. Period, Bluesky, Reddit, Twitter) will bear this out. Is a waste of time to air these ads on this programming.

Second, it is upsetting to include advertisement for a government ag for disappearing our families’s friends social media is complete with instants abusing people in American cities reminding AEW consumers of these human AEW programming runs the risk off fans like me to that programming.

TNA being “nowhere or just lying” is a summation of their business since Dixie got caught lying to Spike about Russo.

Theyre either nowhere & he's just lying or WWE has set something up for them. TNA on the open market is no buys

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka.

I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws.

Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”
