@wolfwoman right on! ✊
Well that's an interesting dynamic...
A quarter of the votes Trump got in 2020 in GA, FL, NC and SC came from counties that are now federal disaster areas. Take away the votes in NC in those places and Trump loses the state four years ago.
@Tacitus_Kilgore aw, shit. He was one of the great ones.
More good stuff from Marcotte.
(for some reason this puts me in mind of the scene from Tombstone w/Billy Bob Thornton as a faroe dealer, bitching up a storm)
@jdtasker give it up for the classics
Happy 100th birthday Jimmy Carter
To me, and many people my age, this single act, taught us all that President Carter put morals above politics.
On Jan. 21, 1977, President Jimmy Carter, in his first full day in office, fulfilled a campaign promise by granting unconditional pardons to hundreds of thousands of men who had evaded the draft during the Vietnam War by fleeing the country or by failing to register with their Selective Service boards.
@Animeraider yikes. med-evac maybe?
@SimplyZippy magnificent beast!
@dauphin87 god I hope so. Because the only other reason I can think of is that some significant proportion of the US populace is just straight up fascist.
@MLClark heh--I have a colleague who refers to this as "chardonnay work" 😂
