Has he been? Hes been arguing for more immigration on twitter--but I dont have a twitter so Im not privy to all of it


Yes, he has approvingly retweeted and commented on people posting about great replacement theory. He likes H1B visas because he likes cheap labour for his companies, but thinks democrats and/or Jewish people, depending on the day, are letting hordes of dirty brown people flood into the country illegally so they can win elections, because he is a **** dip ****.


You probably are correct--I wonder if he does little nazi salutes in his bedroom when no one is around and then got up there high as hell off ketamine and couldn't stop himself.

So I finally watched Musk's Nazi salutes. Holy hell. Wtf. That is not in the slightest ambiguous. And he does it twice!

Howell lets Trump have it in blunt terms. Refuses to dismiss "with prejudice" the charges.
Best news since the election. Howell basically called BS on the justifications for the pardons
describing them as a "revisionist myth' and said no grave national injustice occurred by
prosecuting Trump's brownshirts.

And in more good news, major kudos to Bishop Budde. This is an impressive strong women,
just the type that men like Golfy or Hegseth for that matter, can't abide.

Bishop Budde is a modern-day hero.
Tre Johnson is the future of the Wizards.

I think Golfy wants to punish Fauci somehow.

Whelp it's official, idiot Trump admin has demanded I show up for work on May 19 in DC despite it being obviously physically impossible. You stupid, evil Trump voters can take your "economic anxiety" and shove it right up your rear.

The edict is completely absurd, it’s just something knee-jerk that he wants to do because MAGA has contempt for the federal worker, the actual execution is insane and makes no sense (I am
a Fed)

The thing I think I hate the most about MAGA is their nauseating hypocrisy and double standards, Hegseth was confirmed, if he had been a Dem they would have voted unanimously against him.

Silly question - does the median Golfy voter really think getting rid of FEMA
will make disaster response better? Faux news is probably telling them it will.
Since they seem to believe them on other things, maybe they will believe this too.
Just like they probably think kneecapping NIH is a good idea.
FDA is probably next. Ivermectin for the masses(!) while they work on
ways to internally irradiate covid.

PS - condolences to Zonk on having to move.

latest who voted for this executive action move

Golfy fires at least 14 inspector generals. Of course with his sterling rep for
the highest ethics, no one should be concerned about this.

Oh I'm not moving. The situation that caused me to choose to move to Ohio hasn't changed. They can give me an exception or they can try to fire me for refusing to move, after which I will sue for wrongful termination.

But I'll have to start looking for work of course, so most likely I'll just get a job in the private sector like they want, come back as a consultant and charge them double what they were previously paying me. I'll be alright, it's just so stupid and unnecessary. And it's stressful and terrifying and infuriating and making me hate Trump voters intensely. But look how restrained I was in my previous post, I didn't say "trailer trash Nazis" or anything like that

Those are cool with this administration. Out with DEI. In with DUi.

Felons, rapists, xenophobic cretins, and minstrel show shuffling negroes are welcome. That "brother" who had the audacity to do his best coon imitation of MLK....lemme stop.

What a fool.

P.S. Those were whites in black face at minstrel shows. I don't know WHAT TO SAY about Blacks for Trump. One of my HS friends, a retired army colonel, is upset with Bishop Budde. He said she should have preached from the gospel.

I sent him a transcript of the sermon and asked him where she strayed.

He came back with, "We'll just have to disagree."
