  1. He looks like he'd enjoy facts about cats. No information about said bus trip on their website.
  2. Check out the Ritz Carlton yacht collection.
  3. Who works on a Friday these days?
  4. Well, if he's running a campaign from Russia, I'm on the fence. I kid, I kid. Fuck that puto.
  5. That's got to be fake. It's too on the nose for a trump diatribe.
  6. How soon can we turn him over? Seems like an honorable thing to do.
  7. That's fake right? There's no way an attorney sent that to the Attorney General and cc'd Congress......and thinks that will secure a meeting
  8. Good luck to you @Brothahorn. You've shown your true identity and I no longer need to waste my time with you.
  9. That's interesting @Brothahorn I didn't vote for him either time as well. But right now, looking back he's in my opinion the best President in my lifetime. I'm 50 years old. I reluctantly admit I voted for Trump back in 2016. While I will forever feel shame for enabling that piece of shit, it did open my eyes to what the GOP stands for. Unfortunately, the GOP has realized their days are numbered as a political force and they are fine with embracing a culture of fascism to remain in power. If Obama could run again, I'd cast my vote for him today.
  10. Hey @Brothahorn I'm curious did you vote for Obama? First term or second? I'm interested in your reply.
  11. Yet [mention=387]Brothahorn[/mention] here you are despite your experience, you are supporting a party that is out right willing to suppress your rights based upon your skin color, sexual orientation and coming soon religious beliefs.
  12. So Tucker has lost the taste for mushroom flavored dick? Publicly, I mean Tucker no longer is obligated to suck mushroom dick. He probably has grown accustomed to how it makes him feel validated.
  13. Wait? Did he move them out of the pedophile pizza joint? Guess that place was attracting too much heat.
  14. So @Brothahorn you want to try and tackle some other fascist ideas of Desantis/and/or the GOP? What's your thought on state government deciding what medical care should be available?
  15. No I do disagree. I grew up under a republican/conservative house. There is a distinct difference, and it is even more obvious today.
  16. Hate to break it to you @Brothahorn but you're supporting a white supremacist. The GOP is the party of racism today. Deep down you know it.
  17. @Brothahorn you're not making a strong defense of Desantis if the best defense you can come up with is from a Facebook post. I'd suggest walking in the shoes of the ones Desantis is trying to "quiet" before getting down on your knees to blow him.
  18. I'm not always the best with words, but these two posts complete my thoughts on Desantis and those who support him. Props to you both.
  19. Not "anti-anything'? Really? Do you live in Texas, because you'll probably love my follow up question.
  20. Sorry you live under a rock. JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Two years into a surge of book bans across the United States, Florida is a hot spot in the clash over what reading material is appropriate for children, with laws that have greatly expanded the state’s ability to restrict books. Historically, books were challenged one at a time. As bans in schools and libraries began increasing nationally in 2021, efforts were largely local, led by a parent or a group. But over the past year, access to books, particularly those touching on race, gender or sexual orientation, became increasingly politicized. With that came an increase in legislation and regulations in some states and school districts that affected which books libraries could offer. The shift is particularly evident in Florida, where Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican-controlled Legislature and a rapidly growing network of conservative groups aligned to pass three state laws last year aimed, at least in part, at reading or educational materials. Among the books removed from circulation in one of the state’s school districts are Toni Morrison’s “Beloved,” and Margaret Atwood’s “The Handmaid’s Tale.” Proponents of the restrictions say their aims are to protect students from inappropriate materials and to give parents more control over their children’s education. In focusing on “parents’ rights,” Mr. DeSantis is trying to build on the popularity he amassed when he resisted Covid-19 restrictions, particularly in schools. The push is a signature part of the conservatism he is showcasing in Florida. His Parental Rights in Education law, for example, constrains instruction on gender and sexuality, which has led some districts to remove books with L.G.B.T.Q. characters. Some teachers and librarians say the policies are vague, with imprecise language and broad requirements, leading to some confusion. But they are trying to comply. Violation of the law could be a third-degree felony; in general, such crimes are punishable by up to five years in prison In January, when the new guidelines went into effect, some teachers removed or covered up books that had not been vetted by certified media specialists, whose approval is now legally required. Others are not ordering titles that could draw complaints. Some educators emptied shelves or pulled collections until the titles could be reassessed.
