The Speaker of the House has firm views that Bad Bunny is a terrible pick for singing at the Super Bowl, but hasn't had time to watch the President's speech to our military leadership or form an opinion whether furloughed federal workers should be paid or Illinois' governor should be thrown in jail.

I have no idea how bad the information in the Epstein Files is but the Republican Party and the Billionaire Class are willing to let Trump misuse Federal Troops to invade American cities to distract from the release of the Epstein Files.

Gosh I wonder why the Republican speaker doesn’t want to debate the merits of the budget at hand.
Does he not want the congressional record to reflect the Republican desire to more than double health insurance premiums for over 20min Americans?

Why are they so ashamed of their own proposal?

Those 2 democratic lawmakers that were murdered in their homes not long ago were given nowhere near the same sympathy from republicans as democrats are trying to give Charlie Kirk…

This afternoon, in addition to Charlie Kirk, there was a school shooting. Bullets don't know and don't care if you are a Republican or Democrat. It is time for Republicans and Democrats to find a way to work together to reduce gun violence.

And I blame that on Rachel too

I think they picked a shit boring cast, and put her in the house to try and make it easy for her to win

Because I wouldn’t put that past production

Cannon’s Fodder @cannonsfodder.bsky.social · Sep 10

Honestly, I could see her being like a dark horse playing dumb to make it to the end

And if that’s the case, she will be the BB queen

But I’m not gonna hold my breath

Lauren is … special though. No thoughts in that head whatsoever

They just suck in a different way now. They sucked when she was there cause all she did was whine and complain. Now they suck because everyone’s boring.

Never has any country had more warning, more education against fascism and authoritarianism. Trump is literally the world’s most prolific documented liar in history! Didn’t matter. So easily manipulated. So short-sighted. This country is almost half full of idiots and fascists.

See I’ll only call Rachel a cunt lol

I don’t know anything about her as a mother, and I’m not judging her as a mother or even as a person

I am judging her as a bratty bitchy player of big Brother, who makes me want to pull her hair out Outside of the bb house. I don’t give a shit.

You’re allowed to like her the point of big brother is that everyone has different favorite
Different people they like different people they don’t like

But some people need to be a irrational and lash out at people for having differences of opinion for some reason

I’ve watched every season and I’ve watched the feeds every season since season six

So I knew she was terrible all the way back in season 12 And she hasn’t gotten any better

Cannon’s Fodder @cannonsfodder.bsky.social · Sep 10

I mean I can see how they may be entertained by her bs if they hadn’t already been subjected to it … twice already.

She’s exhausting.

Cannon’s Fodder @cannonsfodder.bsky.social · Sep 10

I do. and she’s just as awful there.

Cannon’s Fodder @cannonsfodder.bsky.social · Sep 10

Nope. She complains that people don’t know how to play the game bc they’re not focused on helping her win.
And being dramatic and awful to everyone who doesn’t actively worship her.
