It's not a golden calf, obviously.

Calves are beautiful, a benefit to everyone around them, and delicious to boot.

Cheeto Christ Stupid Czar is ugly, a blight on humanity, and even remembering he exists makes me nauseous.

He gave his "phone" buyers the Golden Shaft

I *love* it: Cheeto Christ Stupid Czar!

Is the second line, "Do you know that you're not who you think you are?"

The POTUS is probably swathed so thick in cotton wool by his minions he looks like a Himalaya.

Apart from him being off in coo-coo land, his closest consorts feed him nothing but coo-coo sh*t to keep him happy so he doesn't chuck a wobbly, blame them for everything and fire them.

Of course he thinks he's Christ incarnate and the whole world agrees; his carers pour that in his ears all day every day.

Where's the hemlock? Isn't it time?

And THAT.... is a fact.

The VA retirement age nuclear option would be so awesome! Fuck em all.

The 4 Republican "justices" on the VA Supreme Court are ages 70, in 50s and early 60s. The 2 Democrats are ages 68 and 69. I don't know if a mechanism exists to retire them all and start all over again, but setting a retirement age of let's say 65 would not accomplish the goal. FL has a 7-R Supreme Court (of 7), and I am assuming it's similar across the South.

The proposal was to set it younger than current youngest judge and blow them all out and put younger left leaning judges in their place.

But since we’re talking about Democrats, I doubt they do anything. Spansberger is another corporate Democrat and has already waved the white flag.

Younger than the youngest judge would be… 53? The younger judges on SCOVA are all Republican.

I decided not to campaign actively for Spanberger because of the “centrist” label. I did a yard sign and a button; I didn't knock doors on hot summer days. But, I do think politicians can be pressured, and that's what I am going to do. There is the state legislature to be pressured too.

Have you not noticed that Trump nominated right-leaning Federalist Society judges to the SOTUS that were in their 40’s or 53 in Kavanaugh’s case? Blow them all out in Virginia and replace them with lefties in their mid-40’s. If the youngest guy is 53, that’s the age.

Nobody was suggesting 65. It’s an extreme measure to counter the extreme measures of the right.

Frank. Of course I (and everyone else with a pulse) had noticed the young ages of the Republican nominees. Curb your sarcasm, please, as it risks coming across as condescending. TY.

A retirement age set just below the current relative-youth carries risks. One is inexperience, and instability. Over decades I have watched "leftists" swing hard-right. Age, and the underlying taste for "hard" ideologies.

I am *not* disagreeing with your overall direction. It's what I have communicated twice already to my state legislators. It's what I will be trying to activate my activist pals around. I'm not letting Spanberger or anyone off the hook. It may be that the House of Delegates is more progressive than she is, not clear on the Senate. But one thing that is clear: we voted in a Democratic trifecta, so as not to be ruled by Confederates!

Funny how turds like Mannarino, whoever the plow he is, promote herd immunity, which is most easily reached by vaccinations, while he himself is dead set against vaccinations. Oh, so you want everyone else to "risk" the vaccine, while you benefit from their perceived risk, huh? Spoken like a true MAGA. You throw others under the bus for your own benefit. No wonder your movement will die out, literally and figuratively.

As they say, when God shuts a door he opens a window. I hope Democrats in Virginia takes advantage of the open window of opportunity and push everyone of the state supreme court justices out of it. No more "When they go low, we go high." Those days are over. It's now when they go low, we push them lower into hell. Screw being the nice guys. No more!

Wonder what would be like to have any feelings for the human race. Oh, but some of us do!

It's a golden bull full of it.

Not depressed, not afraid, I'm pissed, angry and voting in every election as I have since I was able & it hasn't been for Republicans!

You know the saying “God doesn’t give you more than you can handle?” Okay. Well, with all due respect God, could you give us a little break from the golden moron? He’s a heavy lift.

I wake up every day just hoping something "good" is happening. It seems like the only place to get that "good" is when I receive my morning email from God. Thank you for keeping track of the "good" things and sharing them with us. You truly are the light in the sky!

Richard's avatar

Amen! Joey Mannarino is a right wing dipshit who spews garbage on social media. I’m very concerned about the hantavirus because Trump and RFK Jr spew their garbage on social media. We already seen how Trump handle the COVID pandemic six years ago.

Richard's avatar

We know that the GOP would not hesitate from doing the same thing if their other anti-democratic theft of voting rights weren't effective enough.

Thou shalt have no other gods before me and Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image.

HHmmmm. MAGA evangelicals broke the very first two commandments. Wonder how long it will take them to break the other eight.

Fight fire. Way past time. There are times when doing something in a "right way" ends up hurting the US and in fact the world. I've seen some great ideas - do it and make up a rule. Heck - God will "Christen"it!

Oh, God! You are the freaking best! Thanks for the morning uplift. I will now look to the sky! Love, Sally
