MTG is resigning, rather than face a primary. WTF?

I believe she has a plan, I’m just not sure what it is just yet, but her whole rebranding tour has something behind it. I don’t trust that the leopard has changed her spots!

The part about her congressional pension doesn't surprise me one bit.

MTG is resigning, rather than face a primary. WTF?

“She’s carefully timing her departure just 1–2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office.”
“She is saying a lot but her ACTIONS have not backed up the rhetoric. For all her talk, she’s STILL voting with them to gut healthcare and advance self-dealing corruption schemes!”

It's my belief that MTG looked at the polls and decided she was on the wrong side of the Epstein fallout. How soon we forget her rants and antics against the left. Her current behavior is just cleaning up the image for her next gig.

I agree, resigning because of someone you oppose, might be better for your own life and welfare, but it does nothing to stop the 🧻hole you oppose. If anything, it gives them a win, and makes them look and feel stronger... To me, the congress critters who start finally opposing THE LYIN' KING before they resign, are not profiles in courage, rather they are cowards. I have more respect for a Liz Cheney, who stand and fight, all the way to being defeated at the polls, compared to those who virtue signal thru resigning, rather than staying on and fighting, down to the last election they face..

3001: A Space Colonoscopy
3001: A Space Colonoscopy

This is an interactive sci-fi story.(blue text = the story/narrative)This is an experiment to boldly go where few men have gone before. To explore the inner reaches of his deepest, darkest regions. To probe. To illuminate. Perhaps, to come out tainted, but learned. Purged of dangerous ideas spreading like cancerous polyps within.The mission must avoid man's past, indelicate bumblings. So, maybe the thrust of the thing is to go where a modern woman dare go. Co-piloting my starship will Microsoft's AI Copilot, whom i designated as a female named Copi. To be clear, however, it will be YOU and i who will be setting the course -- with your feedback and participation in polls.DESTINATION: Planet NewblThe year is 3001. Like countless prior worlds over eons, the technical evolution of earth's most advanced life-forms outpaced their ethical evolution. Instead of caring for mother earth, we plundered her. Our extinction is inevitable. A dozen spaceships are being loaded for the journey to NEWBL, the galaxy's nearest life-sustainable, blue-skied planet... to be continued--unfolded--for months, perhaps years!

The Lyin' King Thread
The Lyin' King Thread

I'm sure we'd all rather be talking about new ideas than dealing with the ravings of a grown man who literally and figuratively needs his diaper changed every day. But if we step around it like the profit-prioritized media we'll be in it up to our necks before long. Until we can move on, let's contain his bullying and dictatorial stink in this thread so we can toss it like a doggy-bag when that bright newBlue day arrives. However, since I do believe we need a break from his name and brand, any typing of his name on this forum will be converted to "The Lyin' King"Topics related to this administration, its policies, and all-the-king's-men and women should be directed to their own threads.People tend to believe that every unprecedented move by the would-be Prez-a-King is intended to distract from his more insidious crimes. But despite the lack of journalistic scrutiny, the public is beginning to catch on to the bigger picture.The thing this Prez cares about first and foremost is not being exposed to prosecution and potential prison time. To that end, he must stay in office, past the midterms, and beyond...The military, the press, the courts and Congress are being groomed to protect him from, more than crimes past -- crimes to come -- including, not surrendering the White House when his gig is up.

No King's Day: Get Froggy!
No King's Day: Get Froggy!

despite the media turning a blind eye, it's obvious America is being shaped into a regressive, repressive, dictatorship. We can not give this regime any excuse to escalate gestapo tactics. Portland protestors showed us how. Sing, dance, and get froggy on the streets. Make it a love fest.i suggest we wear light, fun costumes -- preferably with our face exposed to prove we're not trying to hide our identity and don't pose any danger (which should be obvious if you're in a full blown body suit preventing you from fighting, handling a weapon or running).be froggy in regards to free speech on this site too. The goal is to amplify our voices. But search engines are penalizing sites with foul or risque language. This site has word-filters in place to help maintain meaning. let's emphasize love over hate and peace over brute force. Yeah, i guess i'm suggesting we should get a little hippy, as well as froggy.https://www.facebook.com/share/p/16GRXnCy22/

FAQ: Homosexuality
FAQ: Homosexuality

QUESTION: IS HOMOSEXUALITY "UNNATURAL?"Homosexuality is not uncommon in nature. Though there are cases of asexual reproduction, HETERO-sexual behavior is simply nature's tool for species re-population. Regardless, there is nothing more natural than the tactile exchange of affection between any two people regardless of what kind of parts they're equipped with.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexual_behavior_in_animals"Geir Soeli, the project leader of an OSLO museum exhibit entitled "Against Nature," told Reuters: "Homosexuality has been observed for more than 1,500 animal species"..."The sexual urge is strong in all animals. ... It's a part of life, it's fun to have sex," Soeli said of the reasons for homosexuality or bisexuality among animals."..."Greek philosopher Aristotle noted apparent homosexual behavior among hyenas 2,300 years ago"

Bible Study
Bible Study

I'm a big fan of the central character. I was raised to marvel at his profound wisdom, lessons of compassion, humility and self-sacrifice that still shape my life. Some Jesus quotes make more sense than anything i've every heard. Some don't make any sense at all. Either way, the story of Jesus is the reason the Bible is best selling book of all time!Who wrote it?as historian Reza Aslan points out, "everything written in the new testament about Jesus was written by people who didn't know Jesus when he was alive."the writers were not the apostles. as was very common in the day, they wrote under the names of the apostles as a tribute to them. the term for this kind of writing is "pseud-epigraphy" The apostles were either too old or dead at the time of the writings. furthermore, they were likely incapable of it--illiterate peasants who could neither read or write.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bart-d-ehrman/the-bible-telling-lies-to_b_840301.htmlgood Christian scholars of the Bible, including the top Protestant and Catholic scholars of America, will tell you that the Bible is full of lies, even if they refuse to use the term. And here is the truth: Many of the books of the New Testament were written by people who lied about their identity, claiming to be a famous apostle -- Peter, Paul or James ...Most scholars will tell you that whereas seven of the 13 letters that go under Paul's name are his, the other six are not.imagine Martin Luther King speaking to a small group of poor and illiterate people with no audio or video recording, and several people who weren't there quoting his words at least 50 years or more later. Then, those words being hand-written, copied and recopied by hand for generations and edited by Church leaders with their own agendas, while being translated into different languages.recollecting the "I Have A Dream" speech would be about as credible as trying to recall the details of a sleeping dream.

boycott as a daily voting system
boycott as a daily voting system

"the Revolution Will Not Be Televised" -- It Will Be Scannedthere used to be a site called buycott.com, but it does not exist anymore.It had a phone app you could use to scan a product before buying it. It would check a database to determine the profiting corporation behind the product and let you know the companies political profile.Consider the potential of educated consumers instantly pulling up that info. It makes the concept of "voting with your wallet" a practical reality. In today's world of ever increasing corporate power and decreasing democracy, consumer's purchasing power is our greatest strength and source of influence.

Election Reform: The Prime Directive
Election Reform: The Prime Directive

Americans will look back one bright blue day and say, "I can't believe we used to let money control our elections and politicians!" As is, the corruption continues because:the politicians in office won the money game and won't bite the hand that feeds them.mainstream media won't call it out. They sell ad airtime to big spenders--us, trying to compete with big biz money.too many of us accept the misconception that the interests of big biz and us are compatible. Because we have a shot to move from the have-not column to the have-more-than-I'd-ever-need column, it's all good.Even those knowing, willing, and able to fight for what society really needs, too often take their eye off the prize -- to recognize, what in mathematical terms, is called -- THE ORDER OF OPERATIONS:The horse that is needed to carry all the other needs in the cart is ELECTION REFORM -- public financing, increased voting opportunities, secure verifiable voting, etc..It doesn't matter which candidates or what legislation the public piles into the cart because there is nothing to carry it over the money barriers.Big Business money power fuels elections and re-elections. It buys the politicians and legislation they want. We're left holding the empty bag.The result is the economy we have today. Big Biz profits and the deficit are at an all-time high, real wages are at an all-time low, and public services are being cut.Not fixing the election systemand trying to get what you want out of governmentis like PUTTING THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE!
