First!!11!1112!!!
He’s so proud of what he did he changed his name.
¡Thridd!
"He’s also selling merch now."
For some (a lot?) of these mopes, this was as much an incentive as making America great, or whatever the hell trump was doing.
As I mentioned yesterday, doofus had 150 people in his crowd of fans, not much of a turnout really.
MAGATS are irredeemable. There is nothing that will turn them away from Shaman Cheeto Mussolini.
You should know by now that being first requires a kitty pic.
QAnon Shaman: Ha ha. I didn’t wash my taint!

Discobot never posts kitty pics and it’s first every day!
As it so happens, I am the DEI committee chair in my department at a Big Ten university. Here’s the kind of stuff we do: workshops on inclusive teaching, addressing potentially controversial and challenging topics in the classroom, preparing for the job search, diversifying course readings, accessing university resources.

The DOJ case is getting so hot, some lawyers have begun to see it as radioactive to their careers. One lawyer on Trump’s team emphatically told The Daily Beast, “I have nothing to do with that. I have a law license to protect.” Another stressed they might slam the eject button before it gets much worse.“It’s crazy in there. It really is. I’ve heard there’s a mess coming,” this person said.
As to the Debt Ceiling negotiations, this is what Rep. Nancy Mace had to say on Twitter after she declared that she is a no vote on the bill:
"Republicans got outsmarted by a President who can’t find his pants."
