“If the sheer brazenness of his comments doesn’t spur Democratic senators to do something besides jot off a sternly worded letter, it’s hard to imagine what will,” she said.

"Ah well, nevertheless..."

Just an incredible quote honestly. So close to getting it but so far away.

“Look at me, look at me,” Martha-Ann Alito said. “I’m German, from Germany. My heritage is German. You come after me, I’m going to give it back to you.”

what did she mean by this?

what did she mean by this?

I'm guessing probably more "I am a violent, vengeful nazi" than "I am a legendary composer and pianist"

spoiler"what did X mean by this?" is a meme. the quote seems pretty obvious to me that she is referencing nazism. the joke is that I am pretending to be clueless when what she is saying is super obvious.

I guess it must be an outdated meme.

Unelected judicial authority from fascist empire is revealed as a different, more coherent type of fascist.

I'd like to see 'ol Sam Alito wriggle his way out of this one!

Better vote for dems so they can roll over and give up next time there's a vacancy and McConnell tells them to go fuck themselves and it works for a third time in a row.

[-] Wertheimer@hexbear.net 8 points 11 months ago

Out of respect for McConnell's diminished condition, the Democrats will fuck themselves without forcing him to trouble himself to say it.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
