Well damn, Mitch figured it out- anti vaccine less GOP votes

It finally hit them. There is an increase in anti vaccine people being infected and some dying. It is expected to get much worse this fall and winter as the delta variant spreads and it is the right wing that is spreading the Covid disinformation. We have it on tape.
So when the infected anti vaxx people and their families go to the polls, who will get the blame? Mitch knows.

Trump's second coming has been delayed, again.

They (the cult) finally realized their potential humiliation if it didn’t happen.
Mike Lindel has found that selling crazy is more profitable than selling pillows.

The Republican Civil War

It is a battle between those that are truly unstable and those that only pretend to be crazy for financial gain. As far as I can tell the Crazy’s have them outnumbered 2 to 1.
The Jenna v Ronna battle is an entertaining cat fight.

I am so Sick of the "Party of small government"

The Republican claims for small government is only a disguise for privatization of Government Agencies the services that they provide and the industries that they regulate.
Why privatization? That is because Government Agencies do not pay political contributions, kickbacks and cushy positions as lobbyists after they have finished a few terms in the legislature.
Their claims to reduce regulation and oversite is of the same vine, government regulations cost corporations money. One must ask themself why the regulation was created to begin with, there is a purpose that they most likely were created to safe lives of workers, environment, and citizens. But those folks don’t seem to donate as much as corporations do.

The US Government subsidizes religion and charities.

What if the IRS no longer allowed deductions for charities and religious organizations? Think about it- the government is making the sacrifice for the donation not the individual. I wonder how Jesus feels about that? He would probably have Obama and Biden setting next to him with a crown.

How would religion be affected? What about the strength of 501c3 political organizations? Could Trump’s religious advisers still afford private jets? Would Karl Rove still have a job?

In 2019 there total religious charitable donations were $500 billion, I can’t find the data on how much the government allowed for deductions.

What percent of Republican office holders attended segregated schools?

Not just meaning public schools, private schools included too.
I know Brown v Board was 1954, but my home school district didn’t fully integrate until 1968. (Other than the one test pupil per class). Cleveland Mississippi didn’t desegregate schools until 2016.
If you lived in my school district you could be as young as 67 and have graduated with a segregated education.
With that said, the average age of the Senate is 63 years old.
Could this be why we are still having issues about legislating with diversity?

A date has been set for Trumps return! (Warming: more confusing than Bitcoin)

Mike linden has proclaimed that the morning of August 13 Trump will assume the presidency and defeated republican senators will regain their seats.
Not exactly sure how Mike Lindell has the power to pull this off or what justification in the constitution he plans on using, kinda sounds like Sharia law has merged with the proud boys, but hey, we have a goal right?

Proof that Trump was never audited

At Trumps rally in Florida Saturday he said that he didn’t know this stuff was taxable…
If he were ever audited by the IRS, any agent would have highlighted this ‘mistake’ and the recipient of the benefits would have to amend their personal tax return and also pay a penalty.

“What Trump is claiming is that they had no idea this was taxable income to Weisselberg, which is an attempt to argue that they didn’t “willfully” fail to pay taxes.”

Shouldn't we allow guns in MLB ...

…and other college and professional sports?

Don’t athletes have a right to defend themselves?
There must be some personal protection from all of the violence in sports today.
What if just one AR15 in each dugout or sideline?
Umpires and referees don’t do a very good job of stopping all of the violence, should we defund them or increase their funding to buy armored equipment?

Here is one to think about, with all of the weapons in athletics, the bats, sticks, 95 mph fastballs, rackets, helmets, blades (skates) and cleats, combined with tempers of large strong, angry men, the homicide rate on the field of athletics is 0%.
Couldn’t we try that in our society and see how it works?

Wise move! Pence breaks with Trump

“Better to lose an election than to lose our democracy”
Very smart position for Pence to take. The never Trumpers have a home to go to on that message.
