    Green New Scam

    I remember the Green New Deal and many specific details of the very real legislation that passed both the senate and the house of representatives and entered into law

    Russia invaded and took Crimea

    Uhhh no that’s not really how it went down at all lmao

    Russia was leasing the port for their military use, because of this the entire of Crimea was completely and totally managed by Russian forces. There was no invasion, there was no fight, there was no anything. Crimea simply voted to becoming independent, and to join the Russian Federation. This was then accepted by Russia.

    Absolutely no invasion occurred and no fighting occurred. The entire event was nothing but a vote and a declaration. For the average person literally nothing changed from one day to the next.

      Weren’t there troops that entered and stuff? Or am I just confusing it with some other event, or was tricked by the MSM? I thought I remember it going down differently, but I was also more of a lib at the time.

        No the Russian troops in Crimea were basically administering the whole region as part of the port lease as it was providing their only warm-water port. There was essentially no difference day to day whatsoever. The framing of it as an invasion is madness.

        There were already Russian Troops there (Much like how there used to be Russian Troops in the Soviet Base area in Syria). I think they did sent more Russian Troops to help the local Crimean Police and National Guard soldiers organize security against Ukraine or Pro-Ukraine militias.

        Do you go back and correct art? If you worked for the CIA would you take the bottle out of Jackson Pollock’s hand and fix his line work? It’s perfect the way it is

    Didn’t even bother with a portrait for Biden, plus the plague sais “Autopen 2021-2025“. You almost got to admire this level of pettiness. Trump is probably really really proud of his ability to write his own name.

      There was a Biden portrait, Trump replaced it when he got back in office. These are the official White House portraits that were always there, he just added the plaques below them

    Second plaque’s wording implies the US recognizes ISIL’s claim as the legitimate caliphate and spearhead of the Ummah.

    Amazing work by people who totally understand words and what they mean.

      I’m not even a lib, but this hurts even me. It’s so petty and high school (or even middle school), it’s cringe. Funny, but cringe. It’s Like some of the most remembered episodes of The Office that I can’t watch anymore because that type of high embarrassment humor hurts me (like The Dinner Party episode or Scott’s Tots).

      Not to mention all the lies and revisionism of history pains me, because it’s the kind of shit I have to argue against as a leftist every day.

    “William Henry Harrison, a reign so short it shouldn’t even be mentioned. He was a general though, a big beautiful general in the Union Army, very big very beautiful. Died at 68, not so nice.”

      A former newspaper publisher, Lieutenant Governor of Ohio and U.S. Senator, Warren Harding ran for President promising to safeguard America first, to stabilize America first, to prosper America first, to think of America first, to exalt America first, to live for and revere America first. To return the Nation to normalcy and prosperity in the midst of a post-World War I economic recession. President Harding cut Taxes, raised Tariffs, and restricted Immigration. His Administration also radically cut Federal spending, created the Veterans’ Bureau, and hosted the Washington Naval Conference, which helped establish U.S. parity with the British Navy for the first time. He died suddenly in 1923.

      I think the only scandal trump acknowledges is watergate

      maybe because he is convinced obama watergated him

  • for those who also can’t be fucked to squint at that dogshit quality photo:

    Sleepy Joe Biden was, by far, the worst President in American History. Taking office as a result of the most corrupt Election ever seen in the United States, Biden oversaw a series of unprecedented disasters that brought our Nation to the brink of destruction. His policies caused the highest Inflation ever recorded, leading the U.S. Dollar to lose more than 20% of its value in 4 ycars. His Green New Seam surrendered American Energy Dominance and, by abolishing the Southern Border, Biden let 21 million people from all over the World pour into the United States, including from prisons, jails, mental institutions, and insane asylums. His Afghanistan Disaster was among the most humiliating events in American History, and resulted in the murder of 13 brave American Servicemembers, with many others gravely wounded. Seeing Biden’s devastating weakness, Russia invaded Ukraine, and Hamas terrorists launched the heinous October 7th attack on Israel

    Nicknamed both “Sleepy” and Crooked," Joe Biden was dominated by his Radical Left handler. They and their allies in the Fake News Media attempted to cover up his severa mental decline, and his unprecedented use of the Autopen. Following his humiliating debate loss to President Trump in the big June 2024 debate, he was forced to withdraw from his campaiga for re-election in disgrace. Biden weaponized Law Enforcement against his political opponent, while also persccuting many other innocent people. He left office issuing blanket pardons to Radical Democrat criminals and thugs, as well as members of the Biden Crime Fimily - But despite it all, President Trump would get Re-Elected in a Landslide, and SAVE AMERICA!
