Hey now, not all politicians are bad.














Some are dead.

Fuck Lindsey Graham.  Fuck him.  Does this even need context?  I'm sure someone can look it up and find out why I'm saying Fuck Lindsey Graham.  But fuck him.  Fuck him, and I eagerly await the day his body is consumed by vultures.

When McCain was alive, Graham was a "maverick."  Without McCain, he's just another "gelding."

That's very true. Our kids get shot in schools all the time, but gun reform is heresy.

In case anyone forgot what these miserable fucks were all about.

More tax cuts and bigger deficits.

House Republicans quietly pass another round of tax breaks

House Republicans passed a $631 billion extension of the tax cuts they enacted in 2017, reprising their biggest legislative success of the past two years as they try to avoid losing their majority in the Nov. 6 election.
The legislation, which passed on a 220-191 vote, was part of a three-bill package that Republicans dubbed “Tax Reform 2.0.” On Thursday, they passed bills to expand retirement-savings incentives and tax breaks for startup businesses, picking up some Democratic support for those narrower measures.

But....

Adding insult to injury, Republicans spent months on this second round of tax breaks without even trying to come up with a way to pay for the $631 billion price tag. It passed anyway.

So what happens now? In all likelihood, very little. The second “phase” of the Republicans’ tax plan now heads to the Senate, where it may not even receive a vote. The package is subject to a Democratic filibuster, which means the plan would need 60 votes to reach the president’s desk. No one on either side considers this plausible.

No this is the republicunts' way of telling rich motherfuckers that "we love you more than life itself and fuck the country."

The possibility of completely overturning Roe v. Wade, limiting contraception and bodily autonomy for women AND huge tax cuts and loosening environmental regulations for billionaires and corporations?

We are really living in a golden epoch here in 'Merica!

Ohio Bill Could Make Abortion A Felony Punishable By Death

Media Quotes Wrong Bill To Scaremonger About Ohio’s Heartbeat Legislation

The recent headlines are startling: “Ohio Republicans Proposing Death Penalty For Abortion,” says Refinery 29. “Ohio Politician Proposes Death Penalty for Women Who Have Abortions,” reads the The Sun, a British tabloid.

Fortunately, these headlines refer to a defunct Ohio bill that never made it out of committee and had few sponsors. The bill sent to debate when these headlines were created was HB 258 ... Not only does the statute not penalize women who choose the type of abortions that would be illegal under the new law, but it gives them recourse to sue the physician involved, should it be proven he performed an illegal abortion on the woman and her child.

Melodramatic headlines that make pro-lifers seem hypocritical

They are hypocrites, for any number of reasons, but that fact that such a "law" was proposed does not give me the warm and fuzzies about these anti-women scumbags.
