Dems are still favored to win the House when *this* is the electorate, btw. Dems are also still favored to win two of the seats on the current Virginia map. This fall, pissed-off voters will give Dems the House. Then in 2028, we *really* make the GOP suffer with redistricting.

>International Relations student >Surprised that an Israeli politician identifies as Zionist We're so cooked.
Googled him, saw he was leading a centrist party, then saw it was labelled as "Liberal Zionist" and that his son was killed in Gaza. Israel continues to be fucked.

No disrespect to what Harrison Butker has accomplished with this team, as he was one of the most clutch kickers in the NFL during a few of our SB runs… But they should have a new kicker trying out on Monday. 1/5 from 50+ when the rest of the league is becoming more accurate from that distance just isn’t good enough.

The Mike Rogers campaign. Expectation vs. Reality
Rally speaker: "Mike Rogers is an American. Abdul has a birth certificate. The birth certificate says he's a citizen of America. You know what? a birth certificate doesn't make you an American."

People all across the world are getting rid of their right wing governments with just a simple vote. Certain people want you to believe that you have to have some 100 step plan to overthrow your society to get rid of them but a simple vote every two years will suffice.
Somehow all semi authoritarian states work this way without resisting at all

Whenever you watch Latin American politicians in action, you see why a lot of us say Trump is basically a Latin American politician.
President Lula of Brazil dismisses criticism of he being old by pointing out his sexual skills. He claimed that the First Lady knows that he has the "energy of a 30 year old and the lust of a 20 year old".

It's usually a regional thing, College Football is much more popular in the South and Midwest.

This is common if you are from the northeast or the west coast in particular
This is pretty common if you didn’t attend a D1 school or if your alma mater isn’t good

It should never be forgotten that Ken Paxton was a leader in the coup to nullify the election of Joe Biden. He filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court to challenge the 2020 election results in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin even though he was the AG for Texas. His suit was quickly tossed by the Court. On January 7th Paxton claimed the insurrection of the previous day was the work of antifa. This lie was quickly disproven. On the 7th 46 state attorneys general disavowed the violence of the 6th in a letter to the Acting Attorney General of the U.S. A few days later three more AGs sent their own letter in condemning the violent insurrection. Only Ken Paxton failed to sign either letter.
