It was a play on Biden and gang's usual knee jerk reaction that no matter the weapons used he'll be along shortly to call for an "assault" weapon ban

How her parents (especially her father) politically failed her.

The comment by the former Red Guard member seemed especially salient:

Quote
Very sad, a HS student was brainwashed to slam her own parents, just like Red Guard (I was a member) did during Mao's Cultural Revolution. Thank God, I did not publicly criticize my mom, but I did privately at home.

Warning: We are in the middle of American Cultural Revolution.

OMAR: There are areas of friction and that led us to kill each other, but in reality, we are an organized society, brothers and sisters, people of the same blood, people who know they are Somalians first, Muslims second, who protect one another, come to each other's aid and to the aid of other Muslims too.

(...)

The U.S. would not dare support anyone against Somalia to steal our land or oceans. Sleep in comfort, knowing I am here to protect the interests of Somalia from inside the U.S. system. The woman you sent to Congress is working day and night to protect your interests. She knows your plight and that of Somalia. I am as concerned about Somalia as you guys are. Together, we will protect the interests of Somalia.

She should be expelled immediately from congress
Her citizenship revoked
Tarred and feathered
Then while the tar is still warm put on a one way plane to Somalia.

Unfortunately nowadays the best we can hope for is the first and I'm not hopeful of even that it happening.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. She's a woman of color, and therefore it is a crime that she is not already your president. Your white nationalism is the real problem, obviously.

Florida woman

Quote
Bertha Yalter, 71, allegedly attacked her husband of more than 50 years after he received a postcard from a former girlfriend from 60 years ago.  (Miami-Dade County Jail)

When authorities arrived, they found the unidentified victim in an "extremely fragile" state, according to a police report obtained by the news outlet. He also had several bruises, open lacerations on both of his arms and stomach area, as well as open bite marks that were bleeding, the news report said.

60 years.  :facepalm:
BTW: Looks lie it's been a rough 71 years for his wife. Meth?

I glance at the article then started looking nervously at my coffee wondering what's in it
You're not going to believe who this is.

Honestly don't know how much of this is merely to get (more) attention but here it is.

I just read that on my feed. I guess some trannies can pass. I always thought Gorlock the Destroyer was a really, really, really, ugly fat female. The icing on the cake is "men need to start being men."  :rofl:

See! Men can have babies! Take that you MAGA fascist white supremacist science deniers!

The US taxpayer has spent millions funding the pregnancies of transgender men, official data shows.

A recent study by University of Michigan researchers found there were 1,907 births among people who were born biological female but who identified as men between 2014 and 2018, the equivalent of nearly 500 a year.

Of the total, 256 trans men were insured under Medicaid - a government program that provides health insurance to people with limited income, which is funded by Americans.

The average cost of childbirth in the US is around $19,000, meaning the deliveries would have cost taxpayers around $4.8million.

256 women on Medicaid had babies between 2014 and 2018.  What's the story here.

If I'm being uncharitable, I'd opine that those weren't the only women with mental illness on Medicaid having babies those years.

More has to do, in my mind, how the left likes claim men can have babies too when in fact they're women and this in fact proves it as if we needed proof.
As far a the tax payer money being spend that is an issue but not the biggest IMHO. $5 mil is probably  equal to the White House monthly toilet paper budget
