    I’m not sure which is funnier, this clip, or the one of Bezos’ eating shit when he walked up to the latest capsule after touchdown.

    When they say they will deport any citizen who hates America, I assume that still means we are all allowed to hate JD Vance. Even the republicans hate him.

    Kudos to TreVeyon Henderson for low-key trolling the Republicans by being a black man in a tan suit. No way that was an unintentional choice.

    Remember, DEI was created to prevent the hiring of the unqualified just because they were white.

      Whether coming from PA or MI, it’s almost instantly recognizable when crossing into Ohio; the drivers are awful and the roads are worse.

      Ohio sucks

    Yeah but imagine if a black woman had done it. We’d need to question her abilities as a black woman and call it woke and stuff. /s

    No Silicon Valley techbro will ever be president, because they can’t fake being human long enough with cameras around. The complete lack of experience with anything approaching real life will expose them over and over again.

        No California Hollywood actor and former head of the screen actors guild will ever be president, because they can’t fake being human long enough with cameras around. The complete lack of experience with anything approaching real life will expose them over and over again.

    I’ll bet the reason they don’t send back the Maryland man is because he’s already dead. I don’t want that, I hope he can safely return to his family, but the reason they’re not returning him is because something has happened that money cannot fix.

      I’ve had a similar thought.

      Dead, or severely hurt. Or the system purposely dehumanizes so much that there is no way to connect a person to a real identity anymore.

        Or El Salvadorean president is trying to leverage the situation to get something big in return. It’s an unpleasant dehumanizing situation, but the man is now a bargaining chip for them.

    How are you supposed to lift that trophy? In the video looks like it fell apart when the other dude picked it up from the top part. Tbh I wouldn’t expect it to be that weak.

      Apparently, the trophy actually comes in two parts. It’s supposed to come apart. Vance didn’t know that, picked it up the wrong way, and it came apart and (when it hit the ground) broke.

    Sometimes I look at the politicians from my country, and think to myself “gosh, what a bunch of sleezebags. Even I could do a better job”. And then I see this and come back to reality.

    I mean, my politicians are still sleezebags, but not at this level, and that doesn’t necessarily correlate to my ability to actually do better than them with no actual experience.

    These folks are the me that didn’t stop at intrusive thoughts. Who thought that just because they were raised on silver spoons and bailed out at every blunder they knew better.
