Yo, Charlie Kirk…do you mean sexual anarchy like “grab 'em in the p*ssy”?

That kind of sexual anarchy?

Asking for the DFG…

Is the fact that Rand Paul is a racist Republican really news?

What is the end game for GOP pols like Sen. Paul? After they get all of the chaos they say they want, what do they think will be left of U.S. and international society?

Rand-o hasn’t thought this one through. If his neighbor can come through his hedge and lay a beatin’ on him, he isn’t that well-protected from chaos on even the smallest scale.

The NFL is now the league of sexual anarchy.

I thought creepy Bob Kraft made this clear years ago.

If it became a big wingnut thing to bite the heads off chickens, and I have no illusions about thinking such a thing is amusingly impossible, Rand Paul would rush to the microphones to declare that it was a good thing without putting much effort into having a reason, because that’s what he always does. Strikes me as a strange way to make a living but it’s a strange world.

P.S. I’m vaguely familiar with the NFL but I have no idea what “sexual anarchy” is. Just saying.

Jesus Christ on a crutch, I’m agreeing with Charlie Kirk. That half-time show should not have allowed on the field. Music is time, pitch, and volume: all rap and hip-hop have are time and volume. (In the interest of fairness, western Art music de-emphasized/simplified rhythmic concepts until the early XX Century, but not to the degree that rap killed melody. Is that what hip-hop is? Rap with a pinch of melody?)

Rand’s neighbor sold his property, likely for legal bills. But in harmony with Paul’s thinking process, President Biden should give Rene Boucher the Presidential Freedom Medal.

They never do think this stuff through. They truly believe their position of power will continue, no matter what level of anarchy or autocracy comes upon them. I don’t understand this way of thinking, but I think I’m glad I don’t.

Rand Paul is an asshole
and a racist one at that.

90% of Canadian truckers are vaccinated as are 4 out of 5 Canadians generally. Bitching about the requirement to be vaccinated to cross the border with one’s truck is therefore asinine. To not be vaccinated risks one’s self and others and so is really a stupid idea in the face of a deadly disease. It doesn’t take deep thought to figure out either. So, to get worked up this way is willful and deliberate stupidity. Not something to brag about.

CNN screenshot altered to add fake chyron about Putin and Biden | AP News
CLAIM: A screenshot shows a CNN chyron reading: “Sources: Putin to delay invasion until Biden delivers weapons to Ukraine for Russia to capture.”

AP’S ASSESSMENT: Altered image. The text was added to a screenshot of a CNN news report from 2017. A CNN spokesperson confirmed the image was altered to add the fake chyron.

It’s not clear where the doctored image first emerged, but a reverse image search shows it has been circulating on Reddit and other message boards for several days.
