Everything is on fire - the US politics thread

Although that’s f*cking hilarious. Editor claiming that it’s all a mistake etc. So not a single person picked up the finished copy to check everything is fine prior to sending it out to distribution? Isn’t he the editor? I thought that was literally the job description

The noose found in Nascar driver Bubba Wallace’s garage on Sunday was actually a handle on a garage door and had been there since last year, an FBI investigation concluded.

So, so awkward.

Though it’s still an indictment on the sport that nobody was that surprised by the notion that somebody could do something that racist.

I don’t know of that is totally true. Everyone I saw on the news seemed shocked and disgusted. Small sample size granted

Depends on what news you’re looking at. Go to Fox comments and don’t think I saw a single one in support. The general consensus was that it was faked for publicity, he’s lying, who cares etc.

There’s enough bad shit out there without jumping at shadows.

On the other hand, at least it’s just a stupid overreaction.

Donald Trump as part of his re-election campaign visits a primary school and asks the children do they know what a tragedy is.
Little Paulska puts up his hand and says “If my friend my friend. Testament got run over by a bus and killed, that would be a tragedy.”
Trump shakes his head and says “No Paulska that would be an accident not a tragedy, anyone else know?”
Clever Jubal raises his hand and says “If the plane flying the Sydney FC team to Perth crashed and all were killed, that would be a tragedy.”
Trump again shakes his head and says “That would be a great loss but not a tragedy. Don’t any of you children know what a tragedy is?”
After a long pause, much to the teacher’s worry, the clown of the class Hilly raises his hand and says. “If airforce one was hit by a missile while you were abroad and the plane and you were blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy.”
Trump smiles and says "That is a correct, Hilly, and you are very clever. How did you work it out.
Easy says Hilly. “It would be no great loss and I doubt it would be an accident.”

Kanye West putting his hat into the rings. After a 4hr “rambling” interview, he’s said he will model the White House on the Republic of Wakanda. You just can’t make this shit up. Doubt that it’s anything more than a ploy to try and get publicity/stay current, but fuck I wish it happens. Just to see how low the country can realistically get…

“In an interview with Forbes, he announced that he would run under the banner of the Birthday party, “because when we win it’s everybody’s birthday””

"Regarding the development of a Covid-19 vaccine, he said: “It’s so many of our children that are being vaccinated and paralysed … So when they say the way we’re going to fix covid is with a vaccine, I’m extremely cautious. That’s the mark of the beast.

“They want to put chips inside of us, they want to do all kinds of things to make it where we can’t cross the gates of heaven.”

West added that Covid-19 was “all about God. We need to stop doing things that make God mad.”"

Well he’s got my vote!

If Chappelle’s Racial Draft was a real thing I think the blacks would be desperate for a trade.
