Foodies who don’t like spam, Velveeta, canned refried beans, or tuna fish sandwiches aren’t foodies. They are snobs.

One of the more baffling aspects of the Republican Party is that their followers adore everything about these two weirdos.

Fuckface says his convention speech got 107 million views, but Nielsen has it at 3.3 million across Fox News, Newsmax and NewsNation, while the NFL game that night drew 25.1 million. Even his own ratings fantasy got beaten by a football game.

Today's thread starts with joy as the community came together in Oswego, New York to protect a couple of roofers from #ICELawlessness & prevailed. Let's rally like this across the country to protect our immigrant neighbors by helping elect Democrats in every race who will fight for accountability.

Good news: Wilber Garces Perez finally had surgery to remove the bullet that was in his back for 11 days. It took far too long, and it's more proof of ICE cruelty. But we kept up the pressure, and Wilber got the care he needed. Speaking up for our neighbors works.

It's as if he is TRYING to lose the midterms. With historically low approval ratings, it would be wise to avoid the press altogether. Instead, he gives TIME magazine this bonkers, unhinged & l-e-n-g-t-h-y stream-of consciousness interview, pathologically lying throughout. shorturl.at/PMvVB

trump is sending $500 checks to people utilizing the ACA in battleground states with a letter stating that Biden 'overcharged' them through the system. They're only being sent to swing states. This is blatant vote purchasing, and not one fucking thing will happen to him over it.
