I was catching up on The White Lotus last evening – this show is bonkers! (I guess I could save this for Brain Drain!)
What’s going on in your world today?

However, the organization alleged that this method can be subjective, since the young person must prove that they are mature enough to have an abortion, and under the law, the judge must use factors like “emotional development and stability,” “overall intelligence” and “ability to accept responsibility” to make a determination.
wait…uhh… let me get that straight
you need to prove you are mature enough to have an abortion…..or we force you to be a parent?

Moscow Mitch shivs Florida Man.
McConnell says sunsetting Social Security, Medicare is a ‘Rick Scott plan’ only
I totally trust Mitch.
I’m sure he’s trying to set up the press narrative that he’s being reasonable in the end by calling for a slightly smaller cut to SS and Medicare and maximize leverage to slash domestic spending.
The press absolutely loves the storyline where right wingers make insane, impossible demands, and then a few fake moderate Republicans come along offering to split the difference.
It’s what happened with Obama and the fake budget crisis in 2010, and it’s worth noting that he got zero credit from the press for negotiating in good faith. Mark Meadows, Jim Jordan etc. were expected to make zero concessions — in the eternal calculations of the DC press, it’s always Democrats who need to give in.
And McConnell knows it.
Florida Man is hypocrite. To be fair, the Florida Legislature also bans guns from being anywhere near them.

Watch it, buddy. We know how to handle foreigners in Florida. We put them on planes and send them to much nicer places.
Lawmakers give DeSantis OK to fly migrants from any state
tbh…i wouldnt complain too much about being deported to marthas vineyard….that place seems pretty nice

I would LOVE a free trip to Martha’s Vineyard. Instead my tax dollars get to fund it for other people.
It’s nice they are greenlighting him to waste state money to break a federal human trafficking law. He should be in jail for that last stunt.

In uncle Joe’s never ending quest to appease Republicans he’s gotten so trigger happy that he’ll just shoot at anything now. What could possibly go wrong?

Literally dying for our entertainment.
It’s the major reason I avoid most football these days. Even my enjoyment of hockey (same issues) is dampened.
