DL Open Thread Monday, May 10th 2021

In today’s open thread, the fight for $15 is coming to a state Rep district race near you. Be ready to put some heat on some of these wishy-washy piece of shit Dems who want to undermine the Democratic platform. I mean, if Joe Biden… Joe goddam Biden can get behind it, Trey Paradee can too, right? Right. The Scottish National Party won an outright majority in the Scottish Parliament, so a second referendum on Scottish independence is inevitable. Boris Johnson called this a crisis. I call it, what the hell did you think was going to happen, you clueless Brexit tossers? Coonsian Israel is really horrible, and should rightfully be an international pariah state. Psssst…Chris Kenny, just pay your fucking taxes, you dipshit. The money you are spending on people like Kathleen Rutherford and the piles of cash you are setting aflame each election is more than you’d probably actually pay if you would only nut up and do your civic duty. But first... guns are for murdering people. Any talk of guns being for "protection" is exposed as utter nonsense each and every day.

What we have in the United States Senate is total unity from Susan Collins to Ted Cruz in opposition to what the new Biden administration is trying to do to this country,” - Mitch McConnell, Not Into Coons' Bipartisan Fantasies

Never, ever doubt who Republicans represent. Hint: It isn't you, unless you own a business. The new GOP obsession is a "labor shortage," which is what Republicans call it when…

DL Open Thread Wednesday May 5th 2021

On Thursday April 29th substitute teacher and Kansas Republican State Rep. Mark Samsel went on a deranged rant in the class room and kneed a student in the balls.  He was booked into the local county jail and released on a $1,000 bond.  This is a statement released by Samsel. As they say - read the whole thing.  It is an artifact that future historians will use to explain the mental state of the Republican Party in the year 2021.   Rudy Giuliani's people want Trump to pay Rudy's legal bills. Also, people in hell want a drink of water. But first...As the U.S. economy bounces back from the COVID-induced downturn, some employers say they’re having a hard time finding workers. GOP lawmakers blame the stimulus payments and unemployment benefits. That's 100% bullshit.
