Could this mean that Trump is literally NOT Hitler?

Speaking as a broad generalization (eg: of the plurality, not necessarily of the whole): To be coddled, shielded from reality, and told that all of their woes, which were to blame on a single regime, would be cured by the new regime.

So, basically, the same as in every other US election in recent memory.

This seems relevant, as we bid farewell to clown # 45, and prepare to welcome clown # 46, who will undoubtedly fix everything (regardless of whether it's broken or not), free the children from the cages which he and his boss built 10 years ago, and increase government spending and power yet again.

I'm mildly curious if I'm even going to get a check, they were sending passive aggressive letters about $140 a couple months ago.

I have had an epiphany.

It occurred while listening to Pomplamoose featuring dodie.

When Brainey mockingly refers to the "mainstream media," he's not talking about the Associated Press, the Times, the Post, or the BBC.

Because those are the Old Guard.

He's talking about the very "publications" which I dismiss as wannabees; Huffington Post, Breitbart, Daily Beast, etc.

Not news-reporting agencies, but aggregation / commentary agencies. Because that's what young folks consider to be "news" today.

Sokath, his eyes uncovered.

You missed CNN and the rest of the cable news channels, BBC is also garbage.

A reminder:



Liberals don't care about you. Or your neighbor. Or the people.

Right now, the only thing they care about is that they've spent the past four years compressing all of their fears and doubts and hatred into a little cloud, and then cast that cloud upon a single boogeyman. And they fully expect that, in a few weeks, all those troubles will drift away as that boogeyman is removed from office and replaced with someone equally untrustworthy and disingenuous.

It would be funny were it not for the tedious regularity with which this farce repeats itself.

All those peace deals brokered, and troops he sent home must be tough on liberals. not to mention the amazing economy...

The Clown Congress has been sworn in, dont you worry:

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/202...-awoman-video/

The proposed rules were announced by Democratic Massachusetts Rep. James McGovern, chairman of the Rules Committee, and Nancy Pelosi.

According to the Democrat rules for “gender inclusive language,” their plan “modernizes the use of pronouns, family relationship terminology, and other references to gender in order to be inclusive of all Members, Delegates, Resident Commissioners, employees of the House, and their families — including those who are nonbinary.”

The prayer to open 117th Congress ended with “Amen” and “Awoman.”

Yes, Democrat Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (MO) actually believes “Amen” is gendered word.

but since you posted Peanuts, why not some Dilbert:

Anyone see something wrong with this? Seems like a bad road to go down, we are now making lists of the ethnic background of businesses? I thought it wasn't supposed to matter.
