Graham Platner is one of the most ridiculous figures to arise in American politics in years. He is bright red like a strawberry with a ridiculous walrus mustache. He has a giant Nazi death’s head tattooed on his chest. He posted on Reddit claiming to have engaged in sex tourism and masturbated in portable toilets. He has multiple accusations of serious sexual misconduct and violence.
There are no memes about this man. There are no late night talk show hosts making jokes at his expense. Nobody portrays him on SNL.
Consider the way this utterly ridiculous Democratic figure has been treated by the comedy world compared to Republican figures like Pete Hegseth, Kash Patel, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and JD Vance.
This is not harmless and this is not meaningless. Democrats have successfully incepted the idea into voters’ heads that Republicans are absurd, clownish and unqualified and the one-sided mockery in entertainment media has helped to spread this lie when the Democrats are actually a collection of hideous weirdos and circus freaks that media has somehow convinced you are normal.
We have to do a better job of making fun of them.
23 years ago, we set out to prove that electric cars could be great – not just great electric cars, but the best cars overall.
We’ve gone from one electric sports car to
– Over 9 million vehicles on the road
– Model Y becoming the world’s best-selling car of any kind only 3 years after first deliveries
– 5 Gigafactories & other manufacturing sites across 3 continents
– The largest & most reliable fast charging network w/ over 80,000 Superchargers globally
– Energy generation & storage systems helping power homes & grids (over 1 million Powerwalls installed, 70+ GWh of industrial energy storage operating globally across 2,200+ projects)
Today, we’re bringing AI into the real world with autonomy @Tesla_AI and robotics @Tesla_Optimus.
Tesla is only getting started – a world of amazing abundance awaits
🚨 BREAKING: The House has PASSED @RepThomasMassie’s resolution to FORCE the release of names of Congressmen who used the Congressional slush fund to pay out for sexuaI misconduct settlements, 420-0
These are TAXPAYER DOLLARS being used to PAY OFF accusers.
And it’s all about to be public.
The Committee on Ethics must now preserve and public release all relevant records.
Everyone tells me that Elon Musk is a fascist because he could "solve world hunger" for a mere 3 billion dollars, but MacKenzie Bezos has burned through 26 billion dollars of her ex husband's money and accomplished absolutely nothing of note.
Good way to frame it.
Also, if even one person had died, we would know who they were!
Not one person has died from stopping waste & fraud at USAID! Obviously.
🚨 WOW! House DOGE Chairman Rep. Tim Burchett just went MAXIMUM DOGE mode by moving to destroy SNAP fraud with new legislation - that makes sure ONLY CITIZENS can get benefits
THIS is what the people voted for!
"Everyone wants to write a STUPID letter and NOTHING happens...I'm introducing 2 BILLS."
"SNAP citizenship and residency act will restrict the eligibility of food stamps to only U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents who have lived in the U.S. for 10 years."
"The second bill, the stop SNAP retail trafficking act increases the penalties for food stamp trafficking, including increasing fines up to $500,000."
Star Trek actors and creatives:
- Lash out at fans constantly over politics
- Act very entitled
- Attack personally and nastily
Stargate actors and creatives:
- Respect and listen to fans and don't bother anyone with too much politics
- Are very grateful
- Always positive and encouraging personally
Why are these franchises so similar yet so different?
@TheUfoJoe I've long suspected the real reason the US govt can't disclose is they've had 80 years of studying these phenomena and craft and are no closer to understanding them. This admission of ignorance would lead to demands from foreign govts and academics to be allowed to study them.
"If you don’t know what the truth is, how do you know [the public] can handle it?" ~Mellon
(I'm trying my best to watch, pick which clips are important, transcribe, and try to add some other stuff (like the Karla Turner thread you may have missed). That means I'm way behind on the DC livestream. Trying my best.)
In 2016, @ChrisKMellon said:
"John Podesta said, publicly, 'the American people can handle the truth.' My question would be: If you don’t know what the truth is, how do you know [the public] can handle it? What if they’re flesh-eating arachnids or something? Doesn’t seem to make sense to me”
Today, Mellon said we can handle the truth.
What's changed since 2016? Ten years later, do we know what "they" are? Does Mellon?
I think the Band Aid should be ripped off and everything UAP-related should be released, minus propulsion, or potential, weapons, details. At least for now. Let it out!
I DO think there will be people, depending on what UAP represent, who will have MAJOR problems with the truth. But again, as Kirk McConnell said, that's NOT a reason to keep this stuff secret. DISCLOSE!
LISTEN: Jacob Rockwell was fined for running a red light in Pensacola, Florida.
Only thing is Jacob wasn’t in Florida, he was in Alabama.
He sounded off at a local city meeting recently and his concerns go beyond just one citation.
Dear democrats - a sane Dem Party is important to maintain a healthy democracy and a flourishing country - you must not let it be taken over by the likes of @DarializaforNY . What has happened in NYC must be nipped in the bud. Thanks.
