Bigots have always done this, and it always comes a cropper. They said the same thing about gay marriage, and I’ve yet to know a gay person who expressed the desire to marry a goat. Fucking morons.

^Nothing about that is unexpected but it’s rather self defeating - MAGA talking point only resonate with the MAGA base.

Yeah, This Is Not Corrupt At ALL
Quote:Rep. Mike Levin (D-Calif.) revealed Friday that House Republicans on the Appropriations Committee voted to make themselves eligible to collect from President Donald Trump's $1.8 billion January 6th slush fund, triggering immediate outrage online.
Levin took to X to announce that he had introduced an amendment to block members of Congress, the president, and the vice president from collecting any money from the controversial fund unless a court specifically orders it. Every Republican on the committee voted against his amendment, according to his video.
"Every Republican present in the House Appropriations Committee last night voted to make THEMSELVES eligible to collect from Trump's $1.8 billion January 6th slush fund. I am not making this up," Levin wrote in the caption.
The California Democrat said the vote allows MAGA Republicans in Congress, along with Trump and Vice President JD Vance, to position themselves as victims of "government weaponization" and collect settlement funds out of the pool Trump created.

According to Stephen Miller, it's the hungry kids who are looting the country with their food assistance and not Trump and his billionaire buddies who loot the country with corporate fraud. Then he loops Somalis in because he wasn’t being racist enough.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Stephen Miller is pure evil.
