Sounds good to me?
Holy shit I agree with MTG
Harambe truly was this universe’s anchor being, and the decay is increasing exponentially
I’m kinda with you… Like, let them fight?
I think she meant this as a threat to get the party in line, but i can’t see any way this doesn’t blow up in their faces. If the leopards are eating leopard faces, will they notice mine…?
Just make them all public all the time! That’ll show those fucking libs.
As a liberal I would be so fucking owned by this
Let me stretch first. Don’t want to pull anything.
This argument reveals that she thinks both sides are playing the same game. Progressives don’t support corrupt leaders. MTG does.
Then who is supporting Nancy Pelosi?
Quip aside, let’s bring on the sunlight.
Honestly don’t know anyone that likes Pelosi.
I don’t know why anyone likes neoliberals.
She’s a model one.

I vote blue with my nose held as always for harm reduction, but neoliberals like Pelosi are why so many actual leftwing people that want a society walked away, they have no party that isnt enthusiastically part of the root problem of maintaining crony market capitalism at society’s catastrophic expense.
I guess they just want to be in charge for no other reason? Not really sure what their game is, but they’ll follow the money to get elected and then do what their donors wanted them to do. Then??? I’m not really understanding what they have to gain other than insider information.
Then???
Profit. That’s pretty much it. Why does anyone seek excess power in a capitalist society? Personal wealth gain. That insider info allows them to make their winning stock trades, and the “perks” they receive from their high offices (think private jet travel, free meals, tickets to events, etc) ensure that their expenses are kept at a minimum. Their lavish lifestyles while we struggle, and the fact that they could help resolve society’s problems yet don’t to keep the status quo, is the epitome of “fuck you, I got mine.”
I don’t really understand how it’s a lavish lifestyle if you have to hang out with a bunch of politicians and business people all the time. That sounds like pure hell to me. Like you’re doing too hang out with the vice president of East Coast sales for some manufacturing company or some shit, no thanks.
Are you American?
I only ask because Americans are trained from birth to know (through for profit media and oligarch captured public education) that money is the alpha and the omega, the beginning and end, and the very meaning of existence and life itself as its own end.
It’s why we’re a bunch of rugged individuals competing against one another for oligarch scraps and not a society. It’s the wedge that informs all others to keep their exploited capital batteries at war with each other instead of looking up at the greedy bastards running up their ego scores by burning us.
Yeah, but I don’t really care what other people think of me, so I don’t feel the need to have to have a ton of money just to impress other people. Though having more money is always helpful just to make things easier in life. I’d be much happier if I didn’t have to worry about paying for things like healthcare and education.
Congratulations, you bucked the overwhelming norm. People who make it to Congress, with the exception of spoilers, have proven to their respective parties through state elections that they love money, don’t get bored of getting moar money, and know how to get it. That’s how you get promoted in the parties. It’s all they care about.
Because our values are so far beyond fucked it’s almost funny in an absurdist humor kind of way.
I can tell you, that i truly and honestly think that Nancy Pelosi is the greatest! She’s never wrong about anything, and I’m totally not eating my own vomit as i type this!
I like Pelosi, mostly cherry Pelosi. I’ll usually go for Coke or Dr. Pepper, but soda is soda and Pelosi is soda.
“Yeah, I’ll take a Cortez”.
“Is Pelosi okay?”.
“Ugh, have a Sanders”.
“No, all out”.
“Okay, I’ll take a Pelosi”.
She has famously had an abysmal approval rate nationwide, but she gets more votes than her opponents so she gets to keep her seat.
Like Mitch McConnell, MTG, Lauren Boebert, or Matt Gaetz.
I’m convinced that at this point, people are just voting on familiarity
Absolutely. R’s count on this.
In my state, they’ve tried running the weatherman for Senate. Not dog catcher or school board, SENATE. NATIONAL, not state.
Magic the Gathering supports a lot of things. I don’t know if it supports this; I’ll ask.
Or it reveals an intention by the republicans to release a flood of bad faith ethics reports on Democrats
Deal
Edit: no takebacks
Don’t threaten me with a good time.
The amount of cognitive dissonance I got from reading something MTG said that I actually agree with was nuts
I feel you. I have this new super bitch of a boss, but she wore cute pants one day in September and it left me conflicted. I’m still pissed off about it.
As in the pants were cute or she was cute in them cuz it’s completely okay to like a pair of pants and not enjoy the person who’s in them.
The pants were cute. I hate her so much i can’t see anything attractive about her.
Them pants tho
How dare she!
Bruh I literally just told my husband “Fuck MTG for saying something that makes me agree with MTG!” due to this story.
Ill recover if Congress actually takes her up on it though.
You leave Magic the Gathering out of this!
Don’t feel that way. Take this as observing your opponent taking a misstep. This is an opening.
Her arrival at the correct answer was done through a series of mental lapses, poor judgements and terrible ideas that plopped her exactly where she should be. Like watching an episode of Mr Magoo.
Something something broken clock
It’s more like she’s so fucking stupid and petty that she doesn’t realize how it’ll hurt her party.
Her party elected a convicted felon, rapist, traitor, insurrectionist. Do you really think it matters?
Nevermind that the republicans won the presidency, both houses of Congress, and already have the supreme Court. It’s more like, “the fuck you gonna do about it?” If anything, they’re looking for reasons to oust any sitting democrat in which they’ll install someone loyal to their cause because let’s be real, the rules are out the window at this point.
She’s trying to extort her fellow Republicans into not releasing the report, not realizing that the public is saying, “HELL YEAH!” at the suggestion. What’s sad is it might actually work, and they won’t release anything.
makes popcorn
What? Can’t a man just make popcorn without it IMMEDIATELY being assumed to be a statement reflecting the imminent surge of corrupt behavior all coming to light across the entire GOP side due to MTG’s own suggestion?
Are you saying I’m only making popcorn because I will treat this as an entertaining movie watching the cockroaches skuttle?
…I mean, you’re right, but daaaaamn. Why you gotta out me like that?
Y’all are missing the implication of this. These comments think it’s the public she’s talking to here. She’s talking to other Congress people with skeletons in their closets.
Tulsi Gabbard also released a statement:
lets just start with demanding that all the incoming nominees and appointees, and donvict (and family) and couch lover, put all their assets and holdings into blind trusts.
Maybe this is a sarcastic suggestion that won’t see any progress beyond showmanship. There is no low too low for the Republican party, but i wonder if there is integer underflow for situations like this.
Let all Ethics Reports be released? Then how about:
Forgive student debts to own the libs?
Shutdown fossil fuel extraction because they power space lasers?
Get rid of the lotteries and stupid stuff, end illegal immigration by making all immigration de facto legal?
I have zero idea why everyone expects shit to go smoothly after it took what, like 19 votes to get a House Speaker? It might have been even more.
Everyone just expects this gaggle of sycophants and psychopaths to agree on shit?
If someone gets anything, the rest are going to sabotage them so they get replaced. So even if they all want to do something, they all want the credit and will prevent the person next to them from doing it.
Crabs in a bucket.
Fuck did I die? Why is MTG right?
Magic the Gathering has been right since snow covered lands.
