Even with copious feral, Rightwingnut Elected Officials, none reach the idiocy of Texas. This is not only Abbott, but Patrick, Cruz, ad nauseam.

…and, with DeSantis, Scott, Rubio, Gaetz, you are definitely in the running.

TN's own Marsha Blackburn is our Marjorie Taylor Green / Lauren Boebert Lite. Tribalism & idiocy with arms & legs.

Georgia & Florida form a trifecta of ignorance, idiocy & adrenaline canceling out rational thought. No wonder people think that the " Bible Belt " is an open - air mental health facility.

I agree, but a Voter in Arizona, I felt that I had experienced the most blatantly self serving, self absorbed gaggle of Trump Wankers in the Country, whilst this may be true, we lead in having had 5 Audits for the 2020 Trump Circus, including the infamous Cyber Ninjas, Florida and Texas are trending.

This mess could take GENERATIONS to clean up. This may come from a place of anger ( & overreaction ), but if I had the authority, I would lock up EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. of these affronts to human decency, maybe have them committed. My tolerance for seeing ignorance & idiocy is at ZERO percent. I'm finding it difficult to trust these walking cesspools. I can't even make a humorous flippant remark about it at times.

Yes, Mr. Appleton this debacle will not disappear quickly, nor will the gaggle of Trumpists

retire quietly to Florida. The real problem is that the American People, at least that segment

which believes in ‘a quick fix,’ will become even more frustrated in what the ‘fun house’ inmates wrought.

If I could turn back time, I'd leave a truckload of birth control pills, condoms, spermicide so a substantial number of these dips--ts wouldn't propagate. Even then it would only be like using a sieve to hold back a tsunami, I'm afraid.

Now just consider what may well result from the vastly tightened Abortion Laws.

It is beyond hard to see ANY humor in our predicament.

I mustered up ONE humorously cynical comment, & that was like a cockatiel laying an ostrich egg.

Not even HANK HILL (King of the Hill ) wants to live there. He decided that Hill family should move to California. " Them Republicans ain't right, I'll tell you what. ".

The 'balanced' media has fallen in the trap of quoting both sides. They fail to point out the blatant sophistry that one side is spewing. (Blatant sophistry aka b.s.).

#GovernorOfDeath To go from sublime Ann Richards to #GhoulGreg #RabidAbbott should warn The Decent how far & how fast the plummet can be. #GhoulGreg is thugly malo frio hueco .. wicked cold hollow.

We FuBips aka Furless Bipeds hover --well, lurch-- between extinction & evolution.

& the clock has been moved back to 5 minutes before midnight, thanks to Putin. The Evangelicals think that he's God's NEW agent to bring about the Apocalypse & clear the way for the Second Coming. FAN - FREAKING - TASTIC.

Daniel, you were on quite the roll here today. I'm proud of ya. Hell, I think JVL would be proud . . . maybe (lol, I'm more a Tim Miller girl).

Sometimes I ride the wave & try not to let dreck annoy or get under my skin, & sometimes I find myself yanked from my " happy place / comfort zone " & I just have to VENT. What I find hard to put up with is conservatives turned Putin - worshippers. They admire a maniac who would happily, gleefully kill people who haven't done jack - squat to him or against him. & we thought that their treating The Biggest Loser # 45 like the Messiah was revolting.
