Holy shit. This is Angelo Elia, a legislative correspondent for Congressman Dave Taylor.

According to @rooster.info, during a Zoom meeting today, he had an American nazi flag displayed in the background.

On the one hand, Fox News inadvertently gives him national political stature with such questions. On the other hand, he sounds like a Qatari spokesperson.

No, seriously, given Johnson’s freaky sensibilities, he sees that type of social decadence as worse than 20,000 lives lost.

Remarkable. It still sounds like ABC News. But they’ve become pod people. And, sure, the cartels are very upset that the Border Patrol has been moved to Chicago to tackle Walgreens customers and zip tie children there (instead of patrolling the actual border).

As much as I’d like to see the “no seed oil” people like RFK JR find out what it’s like when there is actually no seed oil …

Trump and Miller will probably get the blood in the streets they want eventually. We don’t know when or how it will unfold, or how the public will come to perceive it. But we do know that no matter how it unfolds or is perceived, it is already their fault. All we can do is our best.

It'll Be Trump's Fault

Donald Trump created this unstable equilibrium; no matter how it breaks down, it will be his fault.

The oompa loompa not only broke the national “equilibrium”, but he did it without a precipitating economic or security calamity. Yes, whatever happens next is all on him - and on the (today, quite ironically called) “conservatives”.

Apparently China is in the process of eliminating its tariff on imported Canadian Canola oil - which is likely what this is all about. It will mean an increase in Canola oil prices here. Mr 3-D chess is just too dumb to enunciate it.

Which means China will substitute US soybean oil with Canadian canola oil - increasing the price of canola oil in the US. He’s playing 3-D chess alright - like a toddler throwing the pieces.

Suggest the Wikipedia articles on Bartolome de Las Casas and Antonio de Montesinos as a starting point. 🇩🇴

Last year, the Italian-American community of New Haven, CT was proud to install “Indicando la via al futuro” to replace a statue of Christopher Columbus removed in 2020.

This beautiful statue of an immigrant family more accurately represents us.

Why don’t they just leave a visible trail of Trump Coin purchases? Or, better yet, ask for his Vimeo? I mean, why the charade at this point?
