Well, I know I shouldn’t laugh at this, but really? It would just be such a shame if their tacky half-witted “festival” to confirm Barrett at warp speed following the death of RBG backfired on the GOP, wouldn’t it? While Johnson apparently wasn’t there, he could have been just one sick-call instead of three, if the rest hadn’t acted so irresponsibly. And there may yet be more?
I saw this one when it happened and tossed my two cents in. It was great.

Except where are the tentacles? There should be tentacles.
“He was like an octopus…his hands were everywhere,”
They were there all along. And interwoven into the sub-plot is their plan to permit more violence against women.
Trump Campaign Tweets Meme of President Scoring Against COVID and Eagles
The meme’s creator may have forgotten that the Eagles ended up winning the game.
The Trump campaign celebrated the president leaving the hospital days after his COVID-19 diagnosis with a meme featuring the Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football.
The 20-second clip, tweeted Monday night, showed President Trump’s head photoshopped on 49ers rookie receiver Brandon Aiyuk as he hurdled over Eagles defender Marcus Epps to score a touchdown in the 1st quarter of Sunday’s game. A COVID-19 picture was photoshopped over Epps’ head.
The campaign later deleted the tweet however, perhaps after realizing that the Eagles ultimately won the game.
While the clip was likely meant to symbolize Trump beating the virus, there may have been more to the message given the recent feud between the president and Philly. Last week, Trump’s campaign sued Philadelphia over city officials preventing campaign representatives from watching people registering to vote or filling out mail-in ballots in satellite election offices throughout the city.
But election lawyers, city officials and the state’s top elections official all say that there is no right under Pennsylvania law, even for a certified poll watcher, to watch people do things like register to vote or fill out a mail-in ballot.
Days before the lawsuit, Trump referred to the incident during last week’s debate with Democratic presidential nominee, Joe Biden, saying “bad things happen in Philadelphia.”
Love this so much
Trump Accidentally Endorsed a Free Speech Rule that Would Result in His Twitter Account Being Deleted
President Donald Trump and his allies have long railed against the so-called suppression of conservative ideas on popular social media outlets like Twitter and Facebook.
These complaints have only increased since these outlets began pushing back against misinformation and falsehoods peddled by Republicans, particularly regarding lies spread about the virus that’s killed over 200 thousand Americans this year.
On Monday evening, the President made his dramatic return to the White House after undergoing treatment for the virus at Walter Reed Medical Center, where he received supplemental oxygen and a cocktail of heavy drugs.
It took Trump less than 24 hours after returning to the residence before he began spreading disinformation about the virus that he himself is still fighting.
Trump once again equated the virus with the flu, not acknowledging that flu deaths don’t run the risk of hospitals maximizing capacity. The President himself acknowledged in a February interview with journalist Bob Woodward that the virus was more deadly than even the “most strenuous flus.” The tapes of that interview didn’t come to light until earlier this summer.
Twitter flagged the tweet as misinformation, which led Trump to call for the repeal of Section 230.
230 is a section in the Communications Decency Act of 1996, which states:
“No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider.”
It’s Section 230 that protects social media outlets like Twitter from liability for what their users post.
Without this legal protection, these private companies would be forced to expand the monitoring of millions of daily posts in order to avoid accountability for potential damages or illegal activity resulting from their users.
On Twitter, Trump has publicly accused people of murder, called for violence against civilians, and spread false information about precautions against the virus.
The repeal of 230 would mean Twitter could be held accountable for all of this—a liability that would almost certainly result in the deletion of Trump’s account.
People didn’t hesitate to point this out.
Even some of the President’s supporters cautioned against the total removal of 230.
Others mocked him.
