She heard “head” and got excited.
“Elected idiot doesn’t know their ass from a hole in the ground” could be a permanent headline these days.
Hey, good thing our Supreme Court just ruled that people like her (and ultimately, them) will be the ones deciding ALL OF OUR REGULATIONS.
And stupid fucks like Boebert are actually desirable in that situation. Moreso than the more clever folks that will just get corporate lobbiests to literally write the regulations themselves for an $18k “donation” to their “campaign,” and a promise of a job after they’re voted out in two years or whatever.
If Congress does not codify Chevron deference before Trump (or any other conservative) takes office, then kiss “the administrative state” goodbye. And if you think you’re ok with that, or have some clever retort about “bureaucracy bad,” then you’re gonna find out real quick…
$18k “donation”
This is the part I hate the most about this. It’s one thing that we have this “squint a little and you’ll see it” kind of graft and corruption. It’s another entirely that the going rate for sending us all down the river is appallingly low. Especially since the kind of money a corporation can make for a favorable legal change could be a thousand times that, or more.
Don’t be so pessimistic! It really adds up if you do it enough!
Plus, the cushy job after leaving office is the real prize. Why don’t you just go ask John Boehner? Motherfucker spent a several decade career demonizing cannabis, blocking its decriminalization and putting hundreds of thousands of people in prison for it. He was the third second(? do you count the president?) person in line of presidential succession for at least a decade (think about that). Now he works at a pro-cannabis legalization lobby group (at least as of the last time I looked. Not going to google that piece of shit right now).
Republicans have no morals or ethics. They have no values to stand by.
The fact that they concede that they can’t stop themselves from raping and murdering folks without some kind of threat of cosmic torture is a pretty big self-report.
Who wrote that article? The amount of typos and misspellings is insane.
I’m not a fan or sympathiser for Boebert but nothing in the way the article is written seems to imply impartial journalism. We are so fucked.
Independent is a terrible outlet. I don’t know why it gets linked so much on social media. Maybe because they have the most click bait titles or something.
The world would probably look a lot different if we’d stop riling each other up all the time. Media outlets like that feed on the hate and only promote it.
I would argue that you couldn’t really get much less clickbait-y than the headline here. The only detail it leaves out is what the actual fact that was checked is, and that’s because that explanation wouldn’t fit in a title.
The headline implies a lot of people were laughing at her, at least that was my first impression. When it was really just one guy who gave a brief chuckle at her question. Considering the “laughing” is such a tiny part of what happened, I feel the opposite and it would be tough to make it more clickbait-y.
That’s not the kind of head she good with
