Oh no…the Leopards ate my face thread

My sis is like "can't watch the news, don't want to hear shit about him or his appointees or Project 2025" I'm like "well I'm a P&CE super-poster (when not carded for no gdamn reason ) and it's good to know what angle Trumpism is comin at ya" You have to stay on your toes to some extent.

 

It's funny regarding eggs. Just a point of fact in case someone is reading this that doesn't know: egg prices are likely to get worse as deregulation really ramps up and public health is defunded and more bird flu rips through the populations of chickens as a result.

 

RFK Jr will solve that crisis!

 

So the leopards will eat the egg off their faces?

 

I have the tomatoes, squash and cukes in the garden for when they go up to $10 each. Maybe I can talk the Mrs into a few chickens. Plus a duck perhaps.

 

next alpointment? Casey Anthony in charge of child care policies? Matt Gaetz to crack down on child trafficking?

 

Lauren Boebert for Minister of Culture

 

Leopards just ate some faces.

Mike Huckabee as Ambassador to Israel. All those anti-Kamala Gaza voters will be shocked to learn the new Israel ambassador is a conservative Christian who doesn't believe Palestinians even exist as a meaningful ethnicity. Gaza and West Bank? Bye, bye, bye.

 

That's 140 or so square miles of undeveloped land now, as far as Israel and its closest ally are concerned. Nice job contrarian voters!

 

Especially that which vigorously engages the audience

Letter to Trump from Arab Americans surprised that the leopard has developed a taste for their faces, too.

"In response to your renowned letter addressed to Lebanese Americans dated October 26th, 2024, and due to the escalation of Israeli attacks subsequent to the US election, we are urging your administration and transition team to apply your political influence in demanding an immediate cease-fire in Lebanon and Palestine," said the letter.

"This aligns to the commitment toward lasting peace which you made in the letter and in person while signing the Peace Plaques," it added.

"The over 3.5 million MENA Americans, some of whom reside in the swing states, are proud to have contributed to your margins of victory, particularly in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Georgia. Your success is a testament to your resonance with the values and concerns of MENA Americans," the letter said.​

​

Trump is all transaction, all the time. And they expect him to honor his word.

 

If you were a single-issue voter member of the Palestinian diaspora, the sad truth is that there were no good options for you this election cycle. Unless you believe that a year of begging the Biden admin to try and protect the vulnerable people who were dying in Gaza did anything at all.
Oh look, that thirty day ultimatum about insufficient aid entering Gaza is about to run out. What is that? Biden admin announced there will still not be any consequences?

I sort of feel the same way about Climate Change myself. The choice was between a party which claims to understand the seriousness of the problem but still oversaw an oil permit surge these past four years and a party of muppets who claim to not even believe it's a real thing. Both options are disastrously bad considering how little time is left to attenuate the worst outcomes.

This is besides the point that the Trump admin part deux will quite obviously be exhaustively horrible.

 

Yup. Their instincts are rooted in protest, which is something those without political power do.

 

Unfortunately people believe their vote is something that is supposed to make them feel good. If you want to feel good, go to a spa. Voting is just a way we fill political offices. If you fill vacancies on the water board where you live by elections, do you pick the candidate that makes you feel good?

 

And they will never admit they made a mistake.
