#1,839

There's a sound-bite circulating showing RFKj announcing to close camera federal consolidation of multiple agencies into a single entity called the administration for a healthy America, or AHA.
In this era of A.I. I'm not certain of its authenticity.

"sacrifice" > "tax cuts for the rich!" #1,842

Satire often applies exaggeration akin to caricature. But when the extremism is this extreme, it's difficult to exaggerate enough for that.

Condolence jm.
note: some "red" States have attempted to render illegal interState travel for purpose of such healthcare procurement.

The good news? With D & C the young woman is likely to survive to bear children when better situated to raise successful Americans.
But with a coat-hanger that branch of the family tree can be terminated.

a) Horrid.
b) Did we not see this coming? Did it ever seem likely to be otherwise?
c) Has there ever been a case of the forehead slaps that a case of Crown Royal couldn't temporarily anesthetize?

"This is the future republicans want for America" Men4Choice #1,845

There may be some sporting distinguished grey hair that are not old enough to remember a Republican party that consistently stood for smaller, less intrusive, less authoritarian government.

That may seem near fictional ancient history to our youngest voting generation. Today's MAGA Republicans are social re-engineers. They're NOT conservatives. They're radical fanatical personality cultists.

"I am your warrior, I am your justice,” Trump said in a nearly 90-minute speech, most of it focused on perceived political enemies and slights. “For those who have been wronged and betrayed … I am your retribution."

"Everything was a go and then he had to go and insult turnips" #1,850

Right yet once again S2.
Memes should not insult turnips! That's the moderator's job.

Turnips, species Brassica rapa may receive ridicule by the culinary elite
and the politically clueless alike.

No need to stew about it. Ignore them.
Next time you're slicing and dicing veggies into the cauldron,
substitute parsnips, rutabaga, the ubiquitous carrot, & some 'taters.

You can't spell "starch" without "star".

And remember he's talking about when Republicans were actually Republicans and not MAGAt's

“I don't give 'em Hell, I just tell the truth and they think it's Hell.” President Harry S. Truman

Truman reportedly the most recent U.S. president to serve without benefit of college degree.

"You had to live it to believe it" #1,854

- or -
- Anyone that tells you they remember the '60's is lying. - (because of the pharmacopeia of recreational psychotropics)

There were many landmarks.
"The" pill, a stepping stone to less irresponsible recreational sex. It was called "women's lib", but the pill may have spared many a man a paternity suit. A euphemism for "dry cleaning"?

A personal favorite, the shirt-pocket sized transistor radio. A few decades earlier there were floor model vacuum tube radios that occupied several square feet of floor space, and guzzled electricity through a power cord.
The transistor radio had no power cord, no vacuum tube. Pop the back panel off and the circuit board components were visible, even the transistors.
It's that "solid state" technology which has mushroomed into affordable powerful desktop computers, smart-phones, Internet, technology that has pressed electricity into the role of our ubiquitous faithful, capable servant.

"... scrubbing historical references from websites in the name of "DEI" is no different than burning books." #1,858

It reminds me more of ISIL, destroying ancient Islamist heritage sites. https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2016/12/1/how-isil-destroyed-nimrud

It's one thing to ridicule the past, and offer an ostensibly superior option. Destroying an accurate record of the past is at best revisionist.
Any possibility there are covert duplicates which can be used to restore the vandalized sites after the madness subsides?
