This video is bizarre. There’s a ton of static noise, there’s computer clicking, and it stops before he even finishes the prayer! I thought this was a screen grab with a live mic but then I saw that it was posted by the OK DOE.

The outrage is so selective. Democrats kill peanut, infringing on some guys right to have wild animals but you don’t hear a peep about the GOP sheriff who arrested a lady because her kid walked to the store. She is facing a year in prison.

Most computers sold are the lowest end models. At work we never got anything decent so it was always a bit of a struggle. Our office stayed with XP for way longer than we should have so we skipped Vista altogether and adopted Windows 7 a few years late.

This is what I was thinking of. I guess presidents did not receive pension until 1958.

That was almost a real time fact check! Well done.

I think the difference is that Rubio is cosplaying as MAGA but guys like Gaetz and Hegseth are true believers. Suggests that Rubio might have some personal limit to what he will do to help Trump.

The tradition of giving pensions (at least for the president) started under Eisenhower. Everyone took one so Truman wouldn’t be humiliated because he was one of the few who entered office without prior wealth.

Sort of related but I saw that black plastic spatulas and other black plastic items contain toxic flame retardants because black plastic items are made from recycled e-waste.

I honestly think that’s true, plus faked polls, burn a few mail boxes that don’t matter. Just need enough weird things to happen to “credibly” claim voter fraud and give the state legislatures room to avoid certifying their elections.

I think you got downvoted because you put 2021 instead of 2012. Made the comment sound hyperbolic instead of factual.

He paying for it with an increase of tariffs. 20% on everything and 60% on imports from China. If you want a new computer or TV, buy it this year before your man saves America.
