Ky. governor cancels Medicaid dental, vision benefits after losing work requirement ruling

This is what happens when you vote against your own self interests. Republicans are not happy until we are all enslaved & sold off to the Russians. Black-hearted traitors against the US.

Why don't you write an article about how Ulysses Klaue is the real hero to balance things out? Get a blog. Everyone's an author these days.

Since Klaue didn't get the ambivalent treatment Killmonger did, no one's likely to make a hero out of him.

Sarah Sanders Goes on Fox News to Tell Some Lies About Civility

https://splinternews.com/sarah-sande...1827313131/amp



Mrs. "I know it’s hard for you to understand even short sentences, I guess" Huckabee-Sanders, calling for civility. Laughable...

The Huckabeast demands civility? She's just precious. Bless your heart.

He was willing to give a platform to a s*** like Milo Yiannopolous.

Maher thinks he's doing a service by bringing loons on to embarrass themselves, not realizing that he only is lionizing them to folks on the fringe, and normalizing them. The fact that he'll actually permit them wto go on Anti-Islamic rants... and even argue the same narratives is not a good thing. Hell, he used the n-word on air, and then the next week, invited his "black friend" out to help him explain why he's not racist. It... looked worse. Like, the details of Maher off camera, and in his personal life, he's by no stretch intolerant, but for whatever reason, when he does exhibit abhorrent behavior, he thinks he should get a pass for what good he's done, or what liberal leanings he has. And that's not a good way to conduct oneself.

I would not be upset if HBO let his contract expire, by any stretch. He's not the worst, but in no way should be be above reproach.

I'm beginning to understand how people can continue to be Republicans and not feel liker utter shites:

Complete denial about what is happening.

The psychological gymnastics are impressive are they not? Republicans are about hate, & who they can hate against.

They can't openly hate on the blacks anymore & that really, really pisses them off. They can't hate on the gays, but bless them they insist on their cake with a vanilla frosted hate too. So Hispanics are the new black at the moment.

Yet not a single GOP congressmen has the stones to do anything about this Trump toady's corrupt reign in the EPA.

As long as the chance he can get reelected is out there-they won't fight back. Now let him get a second and final term-CLAWS will be out because he can't get a third term.

That "Worlds Collide Article" you posted did not prove what you think it did.

It did prove something... about you, though.

Ho hum. (10 char)

[ouroboros]

No, you're just missing the point of the article behind the link. Possibly on purpose.

Answered elsewhere.

[ouroboros]

Dude.

..............

A statement with one truth and one lie in it is still at base untruthful.

I know you want to believe that I think they're both untrue, but can you even grasp the possibility that one of the two parts of the statement was completely non-factual?

EDIT: No, there's no reason to think you'll grasp that "detention of illegals" is not, never will be, the same as "kidnapping," since it feels so good to imagine Trump as a super-villain.

The fun part is that we all see you.

[PaulBullion]

Talkin' about Ouro? Yeah, he really is the prototypical Trumpian: deny, lie, object, deflect...

He has nothing to add other than contrarian trolling.

I'm never quite sure which ones are worse:

The ones who deny, lie, object and deflect.

Or those who'll just frankly admit what this is all about. Like Paul Nehlen.

Ho hum. (10 char)

Don't you mean "womp womp"?

Put on your reading glasses, the Senate Intel Committee just released it's first report.

Not even Jesus laying on hands could stimulate your optic perceptions.

Short fingered Trump is not going to like this. There's going to be a different kind of fireworks at the WH when he reads this...no, probably someone will read it to him
