Christmas movie about a guy who accidentally chugs Santa’s bone juice while on vacation in Italy and everyone’s mad at him but he develops the power to know what gifts everybody wants.
And then at the end it turns out Santa’s bone juice was in a different cup and he had the magic in him all along

The bones of Santa have been leaking liquid for 1,700 years.

"Elon Musk is personally responsible for the deaths of at least 400,000 children" is a stat that should be cited every time he and his pervert fanboys start yapping about birth rates
Elon Musk and the Trump administration gleefully shutting down USAID “has already caused the deaths of six hundred thousand people, two-thirds of them children.”
People throw around terms like genocide quite freely online but it’s hard to find other words to describe this level of man-made death.

Look, Donald Trump may have had a lengthy, well documented friendship with America’s most famous pedophile, and he may have spent decades giving quotes like “if there’s one thing I love, its beautiful girls—young ones, too,” but I just need 4-5 more drops of damning evidence to buy these accusations

Lol they’re already preempting not getting the vote. They’ve already moved the goalpost off of accomplishing literally anything by caving in.
Agree.
Sen Hassan, asked what will happen if Republicans don't carry out the deal, "Well, shame on them."
This is not what people were mobilizing for on Oct 18.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Imagine saying all of this, but still referring to the people who you admit are constantly proven right as “they.”

When Leftists say voting for Dems is pointless, I understand why many get upset, but they are talking about this exact kind of thing.
Yes it’s upsetting but they keep being proven right.
