Here’s what I want say to JimJordan, KevinMcCarthy before him, and even DonaldTrump:

Suck it up buttercup. Don’t be a snowflake. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps. It’s not the community’s responsibility to help you. If you can’t achieve your goals all by yourself even with walls of white men and the justice system pilling upon you, you don’t deserve them. Your lack is just a sign you haven’t worked hard enough. You haven’t earned it. Survival of the fittest my dudes.

To all the people crying about "Why shouldn't YouTube be allowed to make money from ads!"

If I print a newspaper entirely funded through advertising revenue - and you pick up a free copy, do you think it is ok for me to break in to your house to make sure you are looking at the ads?

Because that is what YouTube are doing when they deploy their spyware to detect #adblockers
#privacy is a #fundamentalright - fight for it or lose it.

She got a gun for protection after a neighbor attacked her. She felt safer ... until her 2-y-o found the gun in her purse one day. He shot himself and died.

Guns don't keep you safer. Stop believing the NRA's lies and propaganda.

I hope that Gym Jordan and the rest of his un-Freedom Caucus are not going to manage to get a Republican elected Speaker of the House, but I hope that our country has a Speaker before too long or at least a pro tempore Speaker that can bring some bills to the floor.

👀👀 Pagliery, cont’d:

As promised: the judge started the day by threatening Trump ***with imprisonment.**

He's demanding Trump's lawyers to explain themselves.
Defense lawyer Chris Kise says it was inadvertent, and the large "machinery" of the 2024 MAGA campaign simply screwed up.

Judge doesn't accept that excuse, saying that Trump is still personally responsible.
