Yeah, well those pesky priests interfere with his interpretation of godly behavior.

I also spoke to one of the inflatable protesters, a very intimidating pachyderm

Senate is back in session today.

1/ So a quick 🧵on where things are at on the shutdown.

You get a lot of propaganda and spin thrown at you, so I want to give you the real, behind-the-scenes tea.

My signs (two sides):

PROUD 3RD GENERATION ANTIFA PATRIOT

Better ANTIFA-cist
than PROFA-cist

I think it’s important to remind people that being Antifa is patriotic!

I thought it was “bend your knees in time?” Or is that a pun I’m missing? Otherwise, love the idea! Can’t wait to see inflatables doing the Macarena!!!

Just what every passenger on an airplane wants to hear from the person who commands the pilots.

He also referred to the admin as “we” when discussing potential DOJ involvement with Pritzger. Would like to see the VP confirming non-separation of executive and judicial elevated in media.

“I’ll take things I don’t want to hear the commander of pilots say on an airplane for $1,000, Alex.”

Moussaka, eggplant parm (with smoked mozzarella is fantastic), eggplant fries…. Mmmmm

He’s arguing that Biden sought to interfere *with his own certification.* An opinion, if I may borrow a phrase from a greater person, is “untethered from reality.”

“You know who WE haven’t prosecuted” says it all. Ownership of the process.

Nyambeni has discovered that partitions are merely suggestions, not boundaries!

Our budding mini-matriarch scales the low fence with determination, desperate to reach the other side where her precious charges await. No barrier is too tall when there are babies to protect and comfort.

Instead of how UH could boost entrepreneurship & end med bankruptcy. With HC policy increases sharply in focus, now is the time to break through the “UH is unaffordable” narrative and dive into the benefits. Thanks for your platform and all you do!

@acyn.bsky.social Please consider doing a program focusing on the economic benefits of Universal Healthcare, such as relieving small businesses from premiums & worker freedom to change jobs w/o losing coverage, national collective bargaining for price reduction, etc. MSM focused on impossibility 1/2

It’s also such a fallacious argument. He’s saying Biden interfered with his own certification. Absolutely bonkers.

Galloping Goat @gallopinggoat.bsky.social · 2d

That Biden tried to interfere with his own certification is a hell of an argument.

Galloping Goat @gallopinggoat.bsky.social · 2d

I feel this.

So he’s arguing that Biden tried to prevent the certification of his own win? I wish I had more faith in my common man to see through his nonsensical logic.

Why rely on something relatively impactful when we all hold a smartphone? Remember the journalist that was targeted and had a seizure due to the message? I imagine something along those lines. Widespread impact rendering us - what? - zombies or some such.

The “Paperclip Hypothesis” where an unmanageable automated paperclip manufacturing process diverts eventually all resources to that production, wiping out life on earth. I remember reading that years ago and being completely wigged out, and thinking, “yeah - that could happen.”

True, but they’ve been groomed to hate Antifa, many without understanding what that means. Coupling Antifa to Profa gives a clear correlation to Fash, Klan and Nazi, which they refuse to accept they are.
