In all seriousness, Mexico’s current constitution has the election run on a six year cycle and you can only be president for a single six year term. Plus…okay who cares?
I know whats on everybody’s mind today, but I am going to cling to this schtick harder than Nate Silver clings to his waning credibility. On to the links!

Peace deal in Colombia hangs in the balance as they eye the US Elec….okay who cares?
Hurricane Eta moves towards Nicaragua, and is likely tos cause severe….okay who cares?
Record number of sea turtles hatch in…okay who cares?
It’s probably a better step to repealing the Logan Act instead of…okay who cares?
A human interest piece on a university professor that survived torture by Pinochet…okay I KNOW none of you give a shit about this.

Why is the site so slow? Pages are taking more than a minute to load. As far as I’ve been able to tell, the rest of the internet seems fine. So I doubt it’s due to some overall increase in Election Day traffic.

We have indeed noticed an increase in traffic over the last few days.
Here or everywhere?
Here. I have no knowledge of everywhere else.
Then maybe it’s due to the new forum?
The dramatic increase started before the forum was up.
Well, I haven’t seen that many more comments.
The increase is page loads. Commenting is about the same.
There would be more page loads since it jumps to the top each time.
Count Potato: The full page still loads when you post or refresh. That’s just an issue with the scripting not going back to the anchor, and going to the top. That may be a small load increase on the CPU/Memory, but that wouldn’t drive page loads.
“The full page still loads when you post or refresh. ”
Huh. So we have more lurkers?
Well, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it.
It’s the traffic from the deep state scans.

I hope they go by region. I’d at least get Wuncler, Swiss, Evan, and Yusef. And maybe Tundra.
You say that like it’s a plus.

I might end up in that camp, depending on how far south they put it.

Dude I’d be all alone…well maybe Pat, if he still is in NV. Now I am going to cry.
I’ll try to text you from the Mid-Atlantic camp where I’ll also be alone if they camp us by region.

They’ll look at their clip-board, see rule #1 “There are no Glibertarian Women.”
And set you free, apologizing for Tulpa setting you up.
There will only be the one camp, anyway, since Tulpa can’t be in more than one place.
They might let you go, Kristen, seeing as you’re a girl. I mean unless they find out you voted for Trump.
There’s an old Japanese Internment Camp south of where i live. Maybe they’ll let me go home on the weekends.

“I certainly don’t love Biden’s tax plans but I’d rather vote for the candidate taking away a little bit of the top 1%’s money than the candidate taking away the other 99%’s human rights”
https://twitter.com/jamescharles/status/1323440881093931008
There are posts like this all over Twitter.
Yet not a single concrete example of these assertions.
I think for most of the country we’re well past any level of rational consideration of the candidates, if we ever were there.
You question the sacred scripture? It’s right there in the unchangeable writings of the PRESS!
I asked my Austinite friends about this and their response was “Trump banned transfolx from the military.”
I’m not seeing what the objection is.
Obama had 8 years to do something about that situation, and waited until the last second to throw a stink bomb into the tent and leave.
He didn’t though. He just said you can’t get free medication from the government to keep your gender changed while serving in the military.
Another good though minor Trump’s policy.
It’s the same with Biden tweeting that Trump’s racist. Apparently, they never heard about the boy who cried wolf.
Sunday night’s Simpsons scrolled dozens of reasons not to vote for Trump (man that show is unrecognizable compared to the incredible level it was at in the 90s, when they didn’t pick sides but made fun of everyone, as a good comedy should).
Among the reasons on the list:
Said Neo-Nazis are ‘very fine people”
Said everyone should drink bleach
Made fun of handicapped reporter
Called military suckers and losers
Refuses to denounce White Supremacists
Of course, every single one of these are oft-repeated myths that have been debunked many times, but persist in the minds of the left, and apparently can be stated on TV without any fear of reprisal. So do the Simpsons have to declare an in-kind campaign contribution for this propoganda?
It doesn’t much matter. They only have about 20 viewers any more. The Simpsons may as well be a ground floor billboard in an alley in downtown Detroit.

Never change, NBC.
I get that Pinochet was a tyrannical, evil bastard. I won’t deny it. But, I really haven’t ever heard anyone give me an honest answer to a simple question – what set of actions by Pinochet would have been okay?
I know, the left will inevitably answer, done nothing and respected Allende’s hold on power. Okay. Let’s put that to the test. Let’s say the current election goes to the House. And President Trump makes a deal with a bunch of Congresspeople to stay in power, but under strict conditions. Now, let’s say President Trump starts violating those conditions, and even the Constitution willy-nilly. Oh, and he starts arresting people in the opposition. And bringing in, say, Russian advisors to help train his supporters into a militia loyal to him and the GOP. Now, let’s say Congress says “Holy crap! He can’t do that!” and asks the military to step in. Should they?
Looking forward to when they replace our constitution because it’s a relic of Washington’s brutality?

And Hawaii in 1959. AFAIK, Hawaii is the only US state never to have had a white majority, yet 50s America had no problem letting them in, and I’d say people are (in some ways) more tolerant now.

Gee it’s almost as if humans fight the outgroup…
is this one of those “based on the nick on this one bone we found, we know exactly what the world was like 100,000 years ago” articles?
Well, if they found a laptop they would just ignore it.
“He says he’s a homo neanderthalensis but sources say he’s a homophobic!”
No they found a monolith. After that they postulate one of the humans picked up a bone…
As I recall it is not uncommon to find both human and Neanderthal bones with teeth marks in them. My guess is neanderthals are the origin of ‘the boogey man’stories: a man-like monster that sneaks up on you in the night or steals children away. While I admit they are scary, so are we.
*says the guy with significant neanderthal genes*
*says the guy with significant neanderthal genes*
Proving that sometimes after they stole the children away they left a bun or two in the oven.
I am sure that went both ways.
Yeah, given the predominance of homo sapiens I’d say that humans probably did a decent bit of kidnapping neanderthal wives.

This sounds about right:
So, the in-the-tank DemOp Media, using exit polls (snicker) and partial data, declare Biden the winner (Oh, they said they weren’t going to declare a winner tonight? Hush, you!). They then host a wall-to-wall broadcast of Biden’s victory speech and Biden begins his transition into the White House. Everything after that is Trump refusing to accept the results, just like they said he wouldn’t. Oh, the actual results? Only a Trumpalo would care about that.
Of course. Though i’m still under the belief that its the actual votes and not “Projections”, that end up deciding the election.
I’m thinking the “actual votes” part deciding it might be a series of 5-4 or 6-3 SCOTUS

I don’t think the news desk flunkies can stop themselves. They desperately want to be first to call everything. If Fox starts calling all the states first they will all default back to their standard programming of wanting to be first.

If there’s one thing that makes the prospect of a Biden “win” less nauseating, it’s that I can imagine that a Harris administration would be a complete shitshow in a way that Jimmy Carter never even dreamed of, clearing the way for a DeSantis presidency. He’s been about as good as one could expect from a large-state governor, but 2024 won’t be his year if Donnie Two Scoops wins, since voters don’t elect the same party three times in a row anymore.
Of course, with Florida allowing felons to vote, ol’ Ron has an uphill battle just to be re-elected in 2022, so….
I think Noem is getting ready for a run. But, like you said, if DJT wins again, GOP is out in 2024.

First lady Melania Trump voted in person in Palm Beach County, Fla., on Election Day.
The first lady arrived at the Morton and Barbara Mandel Recreation Center in Palm Beach to vote around 10 a.m. Trump, who has recovered from the novel coronavirus after her diagnosis last month, did not wear a mask when she entered the polling place.
“It’s Election Day, so I wanted to come here to vote today for the election,” Trump replied when asked by a reporter why she didn’t vote early with her husband in Florida last month.
Maskless! Oh, infamy!
Of course, since she recovered, she is immune and can neither pitch nor catch the Commie Cough.
Did anybody ask her who she was voting for?
The goal of masks is to reinforce fear and obedience. There’s never an exemption in mask mandates for people who went through COVID-19 and/or have antibodies.
Of course, since she recovered, she is immune and can neither pitch nor catch the Commie Cough.
Unfortunately, this appears to no longer be correct.
The sad fact is that we dont have a clue. Everything we have heard so far has been bald faced lies or people talking out of their ass, so who knows?
We certainly do have a clue. Just because assumptions or conclusions change, doesn’t mean that nothing is known or isn’t increasingly known.
If that’s the case, doesn’t it mean there can’t be an effective vaccine for this?
Depends on how the reinfection occurs and how long protective immunity lasts. It seems to be established for most people in the short term or the reinfection rates should be much higher.
Sounds like we may have learned something that I haven’t heard about. Linky?

Biden’s plan to assert control
Biden’s schedule for Tuesday includes a clue to this posture: He “will address the nation on Election Night in Wilmington, Delaware.” …
Biden campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon told reporters Monday that even if all the votes aren’t counted tonight, the campaign should have “a very good sense of where we’re headed”:
“We’re not really concerned about what Donald Trump says. … We’re going to use our data, our understanding of where this is headed, and make sure that the vice president is addressing the American people.”
To show momentum, Biden may begin transition announcements quickly, starting with senior staff appointments.
So, another coup attempt. It wont work this time either.
FTA:
Biden has blueprints for staffing every single agency, and has extensive plans for executive orders, including ones to undo Trump actions.
I thought courts said new presidents can’t undo other presidents EOs?
Put her down as plague related
An 18-year-old woman died in a scuba diving accident at Montana’s Glacier National Park on Sunday.
A park ranger responded a report about an accident at about 5:50 p.m., according to a news release from the National Parks Service.
The woman, who was from Missoula, was part of a six-person group that went scuba diving at Lake McDonald around 4 p.m. that day. She was declared dead after first responders and other divers in her group were unable to resuscitate her, according to the release.
——-
Lake McDonald, with its crystal-clear waters, is a popular scuba diving destination because of an underwater forest and the submerged relics that lie beneath its surface. Divers in Glacier National Park aren’t required to have permits, and their equipment isn’t subject to official inspections, according to the NPS.
THIS IS WHY WE NEED JOE BIDEN IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
Stop President Cartoon Villain’s senseless and cruel rampage of deregulation.
There are no regulations or inspections because the SCUBA community has always policed itself and do so very carefully. No permits required but no SCUBA shop is going to rent to you or take you on a dive without certification.
Fuckin’ CNN.
To show momentum, Biden may begin transition announcements quickly, starting with senior staff appointments.
Maybe he’ll bring Warren out on stage and announce her as Treasury Secretary.

Reliable sources
Deutsche Bank is looking for ways to end its relationship with President Donald Trump after the U.S. elections, as it tires of the negative publicity stemming from the ties, according to three senior bank officials with direct knowledge of the matter.
Deutsche Bank has about $340 million in loans outstanding to the Trump Organization, the president’s umbrella group that is currently overseen by his two sons, according to filings made by Trump to the U.S. Office of Government Ethics in July and a senior source within the bank. The three loans, which are against Trump properties and start coming due in two years, are current on payments and personally guaranteed by the president, according to two bank officials.

Deutsche Bank declined to comment. The Trump Organization did not respond to requests for comment. The White House declined to comment.
But we ran with it anyway. Because Shady Orange Swindler is shady.

Also noticing that the Dems are now feeling comfortable with saying the quiet thing out-loud…across the board.
Biden: “I had a job with a nice country club kind of pool as a lifeguard .. I played ball with a lot of great black athletes but I didn’t know them. I mean, we knew each other. They were friends. But I didn’t know them. And it was a great education. It was like the Green Mile.”

“This idea that everyone can relax and go to sleep and stop paying attention once the Good Parents, Joe & Kamala, are in charge is creepy and authoritarian but is exactly what happened on 1/20/2009 when the anti-war, civil liberties & anti-corporatist movement vanished overnight.”

He’s right, couldn’t be righter actually.
He really seems refreshed since leaving Intercept. I prefer an honest journalist with different ideas than mine to a hack that says whatever the party wants him to say.
I wish I didn’t sound so bitter, but this guy still doesn’t get it. Even after he’s been ousted from his own website. His side never was anti-war, civil liberties & anti-corporatist. They were 100% in favor of wars started, 100% in favor of only their civil liberties, and 100% in favor of corporatist arrangements with themselves in the driver’s seat.
I think that’s what he’s saying. Obama ramped up bombing, shat on small business and civil liberties.

67% (incl early ballots) turnout in my county. It was over 80% in 2016
https://twitter.com/jimgeraghty/status/1323744250392158218
62% so far in Cuyahoga county, with the after work vote starting up. The girlfriend will be heading there soon, she saw my pictures, and heard about my wait and decided to wait until after work.
At least it’ll be warmer for her.
The board of elections around here won’t give any indication of turnout or number of votes cast before the final
fabricationtally.The girlfriend just got to the polling place. Sounds like the lines are even longer (based on her brief description). She was comparing the lines unfavorably to Cedar Point.
So either people just haven’t made it there yet of they just are not feeling the love for Ol’ Joe. Probably the first part though.
My guess would be the second. Fairfax is heavy government and gov parasite territory. These aren’t private company people waiting to get off work to vote. I’m sure the gov and gov adjacent organizations have done everything possible to grease getting their employees out to vote.
So out here in the field at the ATCT and such, no one talked politics. Benefit of most of us working from home. So at least this Federal officer is making up his own mind 😉 Well..my glibs helped too.

Once inside the building there were three Xs, all two feet apart. Only three people waiting is what is signified. During the repetitive briefings outside, I heard… masks are not required. Honk Honk. WTF.
Yes, I put my mask on when I got inside. Baaaaaaa!
Did not wear mask. No one said a word about it.
#metoo, poll workers did though, and there were plastic blast shields where ballots were picked up and id’s checked.
No line at my location. Dem-heavy district though and it was around 7am. Don’t know what that means or if it means anything.
I’ll kick off the the Glib Election Chat at 7:30pm EST.
We’ll laugh, we’ll cry. Ok, we’ll probably just cry.
Danke schon
Thanks for the reminder.

Thanks for running it.
I won’t join. I’m heading to an NHLA/YAL event tonight.
Enjoy!
I voted without a mask, but I had to vote outside. Chilly. I held a sign for a Reopen NH endorsed candidate. Cold. Temps were down around freezing when we packed up.
Headlines say stock market is up because Joe has it in the bag.
I’m unconvinced by that reasoning.
Businesses, and stocks by extension, like predictability, comfort and certainty. Not to say Trump brings that, but wildly swinging back even harder to the left doesn’t give a happy feeling to the market.
I think it’s the promise of immediate free shit that’s giving it a temporary bump.
Well that and not having everything get burned down is probably a good thing finance wise.
^This. Pelosi has already promised a blowout stimulus package with a massive bailout package for blue states if they sweep tonight.
Although the incumbent usually wins if the stock market is up.
I only got in one argument when I voted in person today. Personal growth!
For some reason, they have a table in the school hallway where I vote. The only purpose is to make sure you are in the right voting spot. There is another polling place in the elementary school right across the road, so maybe they get some people in the wrong spot?
Anyhow, I always blow by that table because I’m in the right spot and as far as I can see those yahoos don’t do shit. As soon as you get by them, you go to a table marked “Step 1” (which doubly makes me pretty sure the hallway yahoos are just busybodies). There were no lines at all today when I got there. But when I passed on by the hall monitors, one of them got really excited and told me I had to stop there. I told him I didn’t and kept going. He actually followed me to Step 1 table and tattled on me.
Step 1 table is where they ask you your name and address and have you sign your oath for your ballot (you pick up the ballot at Step 2 table). Anyhow, while I’m working with Step 1 table guy hall monitor is grousing that I didn’t check in with him first. Step 1 guy sort of rolled his eyes and I told Hall Monitor guy that I knew I was in the right place and the fact that they found me in the system proved that I didn’t need him at all.
But that was it as far as arguments go. Didn’t have the one with Step 2 lady who gave me my ballot about having to stick around for the lecture on correctly bubbling in my ballot or the argument with the I Voted sticker lady.
Only other weird thing was that I got the stink eye from some official looking lady who was sitting at the entrance to the school. I think she was mad because I didn’t put on my mask in my car and instead waited until I got to the door of the school. That meant I was probably 10 feet away (while outdoors in the sun and wind) and totes endangering her life. You could tell she approved of another guy who was there about the same time who got out of his car with a mask on. He definitely was doing his part to protect the rest of us.
Helicopter traffic in my neighborhood has been unreal for the last 2 weeks. (they use the Beltway as their visual aid, I think. And they’re almost all Fed copters)
How do you know they were Federal Reserve Bank whirlybirds? Were they dumping money out the side door?
Moving the cash to a safe place, like the VN generals did in April ’75. Can’t be too careful, ya know.
Dropping shit tons of money.
We have over 30 judges up for election…if you have that many judges, you have a problem.
Swissy could probably check my accuracy but I think Cook County IL averages about as many lawsuits filed annually as there are residents in the county.
so what’s the zoom link? I might want to watch the hilarity with you reprobates.
I think they keep that kind of secret. They don’t want a bunch of jerk-offs joining their Zoomboree.
That would be pound-me-toobins
It’s never been secret before.

Thanks. I Hadn’t refreshed or I’d have seen it.
^^^ upthread
Look up, find Tulip
The site is like dial up slow, everything else moves fast,
Handed my wife her ballot cheat sheet “I don’t care about all that other nonsense, I dont want Biden in office and that is the only thing I will mark and leave” Looks like she will be part of the hanging-chad recount….
What about the congress critter?
Interesting thought to ponder:
Matthew Margolis | Nov 03, 2020 5:54 PM est
Dana Perino brings up a great point on “The Five.”
The Democrat put a lot of time and money and energy into impeaching President Trump, yet it has never come up as an issue in this election.
Did they ever say what they were impeaching him for?
The only thing I remember is that fruitloopy creep Adam Schiff doing some kind of bizarre march from the house to the senate to deliver the articles. What the fuck was that?
He abused the powers of his office for personal political gain.
So he was president?
Suthen asked what they did it for, I didn’t say they were right (a censure should have been sufficient).
Yes, yes, we know all about Adam Schiff. Southen’ was asking what Trump supposedly did.
It was done to preempt Ukraine being a negative Joe/Hunter Biden story. The typical Democratic strategy of accusing your enemy of doing what you are guilty of to deflect.
So I’ve been called a misogynist a few times for my dislike of Democratic female politicians. Mainly the big ones. It’s just ironic to me that the diversity that women in the Democratic party offer is purely biological (assuming Hillary and Kamala are biologically female – I remain unconvinced). By that I mean…they are basically hyper masculine by Democratic party standards. They embody the worst of male politicians and downplay any actual feminine qualities. It’s someone who nominally has a vagina but who compensates by embodying the empty, vacuous and unprincipled stereotype of politicians in general.
Wow, body shaming too! That’s a first!
Looks Different, Thinks Exactly the Same.
Diversity is only for appearance, not thoughts.
Rumors flying here in NJ that the Governor / Medical Dictator will soon announce another lockdown that will run through the holidays. It will not go over well. People are sick of this shit.
Convenient they wait until after the election. I have a feeling other Democrat states will follow.
Every governor that locked down their states should be in prison.
Oh yeah. Minnesoda will be locking down tomorrow once the election is over.
You can tell Walz has been itching to shut down again, but he knows it would hand the House to the GOP and they might get froggy enough to end his emergency powers.
Given what happened in MA I’m not surprised.
I hope you are wrong however.
I saw the writing on the wall for the tri-State area and cancelled my trip to Queens. 🙁
Even though I’ve moved away I still get an evite every week to play hockey Wednesday night in Connecticut. This week it was canceled for the first time in a while but no reason was given. Smelled very funny to me.
Civil disobedience.
So apparently Indiana is the first state to close its polls. The counting has started. We’ll see how long it takes for a national result to come in.
I’m betting Indiana goes to Kanye.
Any minute, CNN will call the whole race for Biden. Any minute.
Polls close here in Ohio at 19:30, but if you’re in line at that point you can vote.
In bad news for Biden, it looks like the turnout is all in the suburbs, not downtown.
But I hear that suburban women are Trump’s doom.
11 – 0
woot woot !
Fuck Off Tulpa!
That was painless. Wife ended up voting through her cheat sheet. Masks were required but I am not sure if it was enforced.
I’ll be using glibs for all my breaking election news tonight, but man is the site slowwwww this evening. Every member must be logged in for the big game.
Perhaps it’s a subtle reminder to kick in a little cash.
…Now that I have a job, it’s time I considered it.
Is buying gear considered kicking in a little something>
I think they get a cut from merch.
Alright not a total free loader. Purchased a nice glib mask back in August.
Welcome back! Haven’t seen you here in [ring-tailed mammal that is totally NOT a racial reference] age!
Thanks for the welcome back! I lurk daily, just am always too late to toss in a comment.
Canuck!
Nice to see you back!
Be patient, your camp is being assigned. If you make too much fuss, they’ll put you up in the Minnesoda camp, and there’s no heat.
I’m making Gumbo Verde.
I didn’t plan to make this. My wife wanted some gumbo soup, which is what we call spicy soup with okra. So I have this on the stove and she comes in there and says ‘it’s green’. And I said ‘yeah, that’s because I don’t have any tomatoes’. So the jalpenos are the only color it has. It was white onions, so the jalapenos rule the color. Jumbo Verde. I’m going to put some shrimp in there after it’d done cooking, but I assume it will still be green.
I have tomatoes, but they’re my cherry and pear maters I’ve been picking off the deck. I can’t use those for soup, they’re for munching with salt or salads.
That’s my exciting plans for this evening.
Huh. I made andouille perloo.
I don’t understand. It looks like they are calling virgina for Biden even though Trump is up in the count.
FYTW. Cheating cuntes.

How can VA be called for Biden with <1% of the votes in? I mean I expect it to go Biden but making that call with only ballots counted for a small rural red county seems premature.
I’ve seen that before. Last year they didn’t call it until the night was almost over. No idea how the do that.
It’s only 3,000 votes counted total for two small counties where Trump is dominating. That makes no sense. They didn’t call it for Hilary until after the Nova votes came piling in a couple hours later.
Now you know how the West coast feels
projections from exit polling
You mean, meaningless bullshit?
Not endorsing it just saying how it’s done, after all CNN or FOX or AP or anyone ‘calling’ a state is meaningless bullshit also, they may as well use meaningless bullshit to do so.
You can follow VA results here.
Well, the just called WV for Trump with zero votes counted.
I live about 30 minutes from Ted Nugents ranch, drive by it a lot, so how about this,
Ted Nugent is Trump with a guitar,
What if a house gets in his way?
Guns! The answer is always guns!
I thought he’d just burn it down.
Mr fraternity brother dated his daughter, Sasha. Total smokeshow in college.
I vetoed this morning.
is that just a euphemism for shitting?
Now you know how the West coast feels
FYTW. Cheating cuntes.
The website fuuucked up right now,
I’m fucking off now and reading a book. If we’re lucky, the entirety of DC will be swallowed by the earth tonight. Any other result will be a disappointment.
FNC called VA with 1% reporting? Even CNN hasn’t done that.
Who’s ready to watch the world burn?
Just want to say thanks to SP.
We are really lucky to have this.
Big time ditto!
Thank you SP for taking care of us on a night when you should be getting
drunkcomfortably numb like the rest of us louts.10k page views today. Libertarian moment?
Not looking good in FL. If Trump doesn’t win FL, very early night.
What? Even the NYT has Trump at 91% of winning FL. FL was never really in doubt, this just confirms what the real polls were saying. I want to see NC. How that’s trending will shed a lot of light on where this is heading.
80% of the vote is in and he’s down 2%. I watched this very closely in 2016. Does not look good.
Trump back in the lead with almost all of Miami-Dade and Broward in and panhandle yet to report. Blowout.
That just shows Trump can win, but still a long way to go.
Fox says Fl polls are closed, CNN says there are open ’til 8?
Panhandle vs SE. Panhandle hasn’t come in yet. SE is heavily Dem but is already mostly in.
Panhandle is in a different time zone. May be the reason for confusion.
Makes sense thanks.
Broward and Miami have reported in and Biden badly underperformed Hillary. Biden was 21 points under Hillary in Miami-Dade. Florida is in the bag.
Via Twitter: Bloomberg reports that President Trump has received 450,000 votes in Miami-Dade, up from 334,000 in 2016.
Whatever happens, I do look forward to seeing the county map breakdown after this election.
I’m not one to kink shame but that’s pretty efing weird.
OK, which one of you is this?

Jeffery Toobin?
Thanks SP! This site is a welcome distraction from the shittiness of the world.
I have a bunch of friends who are saying variations of if you vote for Trump we can’t be friends because you hate gays/are a racist/anit0immigration/ or whatever they are throwing out there.
Fuck these sanctimonious pricks. They are literally voting for an old senile career politician and a woman who made her career throwing her own people (and whites) in jail just so she can achieve political power. And if you tell them this and point out Harris’ criminal justice record, the more honest ones will say, “Of course she’s bad but we are willing to overlook that because I hate Trump,” or the stupid fucking partisan hacks will close their eyes and start yelling at you about how you hate black women.
I hate what politics have done to my friends and this country. I don’t know what happened but Trump broke a lot of people mentally and exposed them for the authoritarian assholes that they are.
Sorry Ed. At least you have Glibertarians to come and vent.
It is nuts if you think about it. Massive BLM protests, but the two people they pick are Biden and Harris?

Woo hoo!
Really like that he explains his votes, or even non-votes, on how Tweater feed.
He’s amazing. I’ve red-pilled more people with him than any other pol!
The Turtle reigns supreme. Question is if he’ll keep his majority or be forced to be a pathetic minority leader.
So, I’l take this a different direction.
Over the weekend, we became a two dog family.
Meet Kiki!
She’s a 10.5 year old Aussie Shepherd mix who’s previous owners were fucking assholes. When she got to the shelter, her dental disease was so bad she had 15 teeth removed!
We picked her up on Friday and she has settled in beautifully with my 13 year old sheepdog. Every day she gets calmer and happier. She is currently curled up on the sofa, sound asleep.
I’m a lucky dude.
Yes you are. And so is she. What a cutie!
Beautiful and wonderful Tundra!
Beautiful dog
Yes, you are. And she’s a lucky pup. Rescues are the best!
Sweet Pup!
Nice! Ms. Personality
Aww, she’s adorable
You’re a good man, Tundra.
OMG such a gorgeous creature!
That dog’s a beaut! Grats on that one!
the site has already had over 10k page views today, breaking the previous record…set yesterday
Every single one of them Covid positive.
40k on Sargon’s livestream…400k+ currently on Joe Rogans.
Razorfist said he would have one but haven’t seen anything show up yet.
Crowder is supposed to be live now as well, but nothing so far.
Went live as I posted…
New open post up.
