    Nope, which is why there are so many shootings by underage kids killing their siblings or parents.

    Florida could break off and sink into the ocean with zero survivors and despite all the good people lost, we would still be better off collectively as a nation while also ditching one of the biggest welfare queens there is saving us over 63 billion a year during the good times let alone the bad.

    I'm actually more stunned not by them holding guns, but them listing them all.
    On a christmas card.
    A gun list.
    A fucking list of guns on a christmas card.
    I've seen tons of xmas photos of idiots holding up their brand new pink guns etc.

    In what batshit insane world, would anyone who receives a christmas family photo, ask themselves, "Oh this is nice! but WHICH FUCKING GUNS ARE THEY HOLDING?"
    My xmas is incomplete until I know.

    And yea white kids + guns= Junior Patriots!
    It's a right of passage.
    But only if you're white, not from the city and use it to kill animals before moving on to humans.
    Otherwise, you're a thug who voted for Biden and are the downfall of America.

    Conservatives creep me right the fuck out.
    That image screams inbreeding and hillbillys to me.
    Cause you know nothing says christmas like a fucking gun.

    These are the same people that believe guns and Jesus are inextricably linked.

    I think we should be more concerned that everyone in that picture is so depressed, seriously they look like they are seconds away from using the gun on themselves.

    TLDR: Ivnanka's "food aide" program was a joke and Congressional investigators found that the $6B program was mismanaged by the Trump administration for political gain.

    Grrrr, from that article:

    "The program was unveiled in May 2020 by Ivanka Trump. “I’m not shy about asking people to step up to the plate,” the president’s older daughter said in an interview to promote the initiative."

    You know, like women wanted you to with your father!
    But this was more important obviously cause you can hand contracts to friends!

    Ohhh I misread, she has no issues asking others to step up.
    Silly me.

    Hell, you can substitute pretty much any Trump in there for Ivanka and it still works.

    So let's hear from Ohio Rep. Jordan, who--

    I had nothing to do with any of this
    Yeah..the murderous insurrection committee had a nice little chat with Jordan, who admitted calling Trump during the attack and might possibly have forgotten talking to Trump before the attack.

    "It's the right of every parent to threaten and harass teachers!" - Ron DeSantis, paraphrased.

    “We’re going to fight to preserve the rights of parents,” DeSantis said.

    DeSantis said the direction of the Department of Justice to mobilize the FBI to investigate parents who are speaking out against mask mandates is an infringement on First Amendment rights.

    He said the state will protect parents’ rights to vocalize their concerns.

    “We’re not going to be cooperating with any federal investigation into parents,” DeSantis said.

    DeSantis said local law enforcement are able to handle any issues that do arrive and don’t need federal investigators to intervene.
    Clearly the locals aren't doing their jobs given that it's gotten so bad that the Feds are stepping in.

    The party of "Law and Order" is not acting very law and order-y, encouraging members to oppose the Bannon contempt vote. Their rationale -

    I'm stopping there since they had a chance to participate in a bipartisan entity investigating the events and chose not to.

    The more I think about this the more it's fucked up lol.
    Remember when this was a fucking parody?



    They were mocking what has now become reality.
    They were going for over the top stupid.
    Who knew it'd be the future of the GoP.
    I also keep thinking about the most common christmas sayings such as:

    Peace on Earth.
    Goodwill to men etc.

    For me, guns pretty much have one purpose, killing.
    If the holidays aren't a time for killing, then when the fuck is.

    Ahh, yes, Truth. Something Trump has no idea about.

    Best bits of the article:

    "I am excited to send out my first TRUTH on TRUTH Social very soon. TMTG was founded with a mission to give a voice to all. I'm excited to soon begin sharing my thoughts on TRUTH Social and to fight back against Big Tech. Everyone asks me why doesn’t someone stand up to Big Tech? Well, we will be soon!” he added.
    Let's take bets on that first "TRUTH" being the election was stolen from him.

    The Trump Media & Technology Group also announced plans to launch a subscription-based video service called TMTG+ that will feature "non-woke" programming. The new endeavor will be led by reality television producer Scott St. John who has worked on shows like “Deal or No Deal" and “America’s Got Talent."
    So it will be Trump ranting about "the election being stolen" and game shows/reality shows, probably with Trump ranting. I guess the sub will pay for the social media platform to be free.

    My bets are within the first week, it gets hacked and DDoSed.

    I thought he tried something like this and it failed spectacularly.

    Did I simply have a vision from the future?

    Honestly, the last bit of that quote sounds like it could have come from the same script Freedom Phone guy was reading from.

    Hey, I'm all for competition and creating your own space if one isn't available. Nothing inherently wrong with them doing this. However, as history has shown repeatedly with these ventures by the fascist right, they won't secure personal data, it will be hacked(because it became a target the moment it was announced) and repeatedly DDoSed(or just taken down from not having enough capacity to handle whatever traffic shows up).
