Mike Johnson: “Let’s remove the appearance of impropriety…”
Does that mean you support 86ing 47? That would do more than remove the appearance of impropriety. It would remove the most corrupt president in US history.
Vote? No one has run away from more voting opportunities.
When #Trump dreams of the #perfect renovation of the main stage at the #KennedyCenter, is it as the ultimate #UFC venue?
1) Demolish the orchestra pit.
2) Extend the stage.
3) Erect the cage.
@joerogan this one is climate-controlled; do you approve of this "renovation/repair"?
I don’t have a #Kalshi account, but I was wondering if there was a line on when the next time #Melania would be having sex with #theDonald?
Anyone?
I’d bet on never. You?
#MAGA from #Greenland:
“Make America Go Away”
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
🤭😜😜
I can certainly understand why a Greenlander would think that. What about you? Is your first instinct to do harm to someone who expresses this interpretation? If so, why? What gives you that “right”?
Connecting the dots:
Tariffs <…> bad <…> Trump
Tariffs are, in effect, sales taxes that disproportionately affect families with lower household incomes. Take home $2000/mo or $15000/mo the tax amount is the same. Who is better able to afford to pay?
#notariffs#notrump
What are the #Kalshi and #Polymarket lines on #Trump#resurrecting after he passes?
As a methodological naturalist I am unconvinced that #resurrection has ever occurred. However I am very confident that many people will claim that Trump either never passed or has returned.
What say we 86 the #trump 47 “ #reparations “ aka slush aka bribery fund?
Yo be clear, the only violence I am advocating is against the fund itself, which is illegal on every level.
At the same time, let’s 86 the “agreement” to “forgive” the Trump family’s tax liabilities.
I am.
I did not vote, not even once, let alone twice or thrice, for #Trump, who is inarguably the worst president in American history.
And I have never voted for anyone even remotely associated with any aspect of MAGA ideology.
So, if I were to use #8647, I would mean it in the sense of “don’t serve/eject.” Just FYI. I am not calling for anyone to engage in violent action against anyone.
Just, please, #VOTE Trump and every member of his corrupt clown car posse out of office, ASAP.
What is the etymology of the term "86" and 86ed?
Linguists are clear on this point: the exact etymology of '86/86ed' is unknown. The most evidence-supported origin is as American restaurant/soda-fountain slang in the 30s-40s to mean “get rid of, refuse service to, cancel.”
Most serious reference works, therefore, treat a Mafia connection as a later, specialized offshoot of a term that started in restaurants, not as the root.
The semantic path “don’t serve / eject → permanently get rid of → unalive” is a common intensification chain in slang, so a special mafia-only origin to explain it is unnecessary.
There is an attested underworld/mob use of “86” meaning “permanently get rid of” or “unalive” someone, but the linguistic evidence points to that sense being an extension of earlier restaurant/soda-fountain/bar slang.
