Yo @HunterBiden you hitting the crack pipe again? The only reason anyone was mad was because it was Trump. You and you ilk were not offended when your father had topless trannys on display outside at the White House so sit down and shut the fuck up 1/2
Dear Joe,
I wish I could sit down with you face to face and explain why so many of us were offended by the UFC fight on the South Lawn of the White House.
For me, it had nothing to do with the UFC or who showed up for the fights. The brand you and Dana have built is a bona fide American success story. More power to you. As for the fighters, in my book, anyone brave enough to put it all on the line in the arena is remarkable to witness. Their dedication and discipline inspire me. I don’t understand anyone who can’t admire that.
And as for the people who attended, I, for one, love Shane Gillis. I think he’s hilarious and brilliant. It was a show. A once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. I can’t blame anyone for wanting to witness it firsthand.
My problem is that I believe some of our public spaces are sacred. And unlike many of the great powers that came before us, these American monuments belong to all of us. Not to whoever happens to hold power at the moment.
The White House does not belong to Donald Trump. It does not belong to any President. It belongs to the people. To treat it as Caesar treated the Colosseum is antithetical to everything our founding fathers fought for.
This is not Rome. Presidents are not emperors doling out bread and circuses for the peasants. The White House is the People’s House. This “celebration” could have happened in any stadium within a stone’s throw of the South Lawn. No one would have had an issue with it.
But that was obviously Donald Trump’s whole point. By holding the event on the South Lawn, what he was saying to the rest of us is:
“This is my house. I own it. I will do with it what I please. I’ll build a colosseum and have the gladiators fight under my gaze. I’ll tear down the East Wing. I’ll pave over the Rose Garden. I’ll cover everything in gold and marble. I’ll erase the names of all the men who came before me.”
The fights were an exhibition of imperial domination, not a celebration of our 250th anniversary as a democracy.
The White House is not Buckingham Palace. It is not the Palace of Versailles. It is not the Forbidden City of Beijing. It does not belong to an emperor, or a king, or a commissar.
The White House belongs to us. All of us. The person who sits behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office is nothing more than an honored guest. A temporary caretaker.
The President is our servant. Not our Caesar.
Respectfully, Hunter
P.S. Cage match between me and Don Jr.? Your call on the venue. Anywhere but the South Lawn.
@LordSmooze@jockowillink Maybe you didn’t read the part where she was gang raped for 6 hours so viciously that she was in a coma for months. There is no making her whole and letting animals like this live would be a crime
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas
So let me get this straight:
- Bill Clinton was getting beejays in the Oval Office, and then he and Hillary proceeded to do a “snatch and grab” with the White House furniture. So much so that someone had to call them and go “give us our stuff back.”
- Obama invited BLM and a bunch of gangsta rappers to the White House, ankle monitors included.
- Biden had transgendered folks flashing their chesticles on the White House lawn.
- But Trump is the bad guy because he wants to renovate a dining hall on one side of the White House and throw a UFC fight on the other.
Butthurt is a very real thing, huh?
Not caring about him wheeling six chicks at once when he was married is your choice
Not caring that he pretends to be a populist when he went to one of the richest prep schools in America is your choice
Not caring he went to war saying he always wanted to kill people is your choice
Not caring he went to work for Blackwater after serving and now calls the army very dumb and stupid is your choice
Not caring that he made fun of Purple Heart recipients is your choice
Not caring that he jerks off in porta potties is your choice
Not caring about all the shit he’s deleted on Reddit and he never thought would see the light of day and shows what a giant jackass is he is your choice
Not caring that he is a Nazi is your choice but if you support him and promote him don’t ever lecture anybody about the moral high ground again because you are a piece of shit
Muslims in Florida are reportedly outraged and threatening to leave the state if Gov. Ron DeSantis bans cousin marriage.
“Cousin marriage is part of our culture. Banning it would be Islamophobia. We will have no choice but to leave Florida!” Thoughts?
Not everything is about Trump. I just believe every citizen's vote ought to count the same.
And that the person who gets the most votes ought to win.
Also, wouldn't it be nice for Utah to no longer be ignored in presidential politics?
@jimmyjohns you have some explaining to do, not only did the reward not give me bogoho it actually raised the tax amount. Wonder how many customers you have ripped off like this.
I believe what unites all the Virginians is that you have and continue to take away their rights. By the way since she is “former” CIA I am in a very happy place in my life and would not take my own life.
Hey Governor Fat Fingers isn’t this the map you redrew in Illinois giving 14 seats to Dems when the votes are around 53% Dem to 47% Rep maybe sit down and keep that huge mouth of yours closed you worthless hypocrite!
We must call this for what it is: voter suppression that will silence Black and brown voters.
The magnitude of this decision cannot be understated — it guts the Voting Rights Act and its very purpose of protecting all voices.
Every American deserves an equal vote.
