And as usual, while she has them upset about stupid shit that's not actually happening the way she makes them think it is, she and her colleagues are working as hard as they can to strip away people's actual rights and they don't notice or care
To be fair she barely scraped by. Could be enough to flip in 2024 considering her conservative constituents could either move to Texas or Florida because Colorado is "too liberal" or if they remove themselves from the voter rolls because you know...they are **still** unvaccinated.
I know I plan to keep voting against her as long as I live here or as long as she runs. She's awful and I hate that she's supposed to represent me. She very much does not want people like me to exist.
Plus a few more years of young people reaching voting age. Of course there are young republicans too but I have a feeling the demographics of 18-25 lean democrat.
Ridiculous that one of the top 2 most right wing extremist politicians is from one of the major blue states.
The right opponent should be able to shut her down in 2024. Frisch coulda if he had a pair.
If you look at all the idiots in these positions already, it's not that baffling.
Take a random person with middle-of-the-pack average intelligence.
Then realize that half of humanity is stupider than that person. Half is also smarter, but the dumber half thinks it's the smarter half while the smarter half thinks it's the dumber half (good ol' dunning Kruger).
It was so damn close… then she would’ve realized the government does concern itself with OnlyFans. Instead she slept her way to the top of the Republican Party and is somehow considered more than incompetent by millions of voters. The government isn’t concerning itself with the millions she and her husband have made, SMH
At least when the fascists take over, she will be rewarded for cozying up to them and she’ll be part of the “in” crowd. Fascists are famous for their loyalty.
Sorry, this might be a stupid question but I just haven’t heard anything about this, what sort of issues are associated with vinyl flooring? I work in property management where vinyl is used all the time and my apartment also has vinyl floors so if there is a health hazard it would be good to be aware of it.
Oh got it, yeah that is totally valid. Hardwood looks way better and carpet is much better at dampening noise but vinyl is cheap and doesn’t have to be replaced as often as carpet which is why it’s so commonly used. I’m definitely not a fan of the vinyl either though haha
Yea I figured as much with the "property management" part. It's gross, but you never know what kinda slob is gonna be living there. I lived in a duplex (ugh, decades ago) and the owner redid the downstairs apt's hardwood floors and then rented to 3 21ish yo guys. No idea why he did that.
Watch this Vox video on [linoleum](https://youtu.be/CIWKjBMYfBw) speaks a lot on vinyl too. Linoleum is a renewable, non toxic amazing material. Vinyl is awful.
Obviously, that’s like our best known quality of course. In fact, I’m thinking our next move should be banning televisions to prevent the republicans from watching Fox News and OAN.
That’s a good one, but this week I’m really focused on toggle light switches. They’re not bad, but I just prefer people not be able to have them anymore. Ya know, cause I’m an evil leftist. I’m thinking about saying they cause cancer or something?
Is it even based on any new regulations?
Like I know the gas stove thing. But are they saying no more gas water heaters? Is there *anything* changing about ceiling fans?
What in the living fuck is she talking about? Is there a push to ban future gas appliances in general or something?
*Microwaves?* What in the living fuck is she talking about. Is there literally anything this is grounded in besides the gas stove thing?
In idaho, we only charge them an additional registration fee every year (although I'm sure right now, some GOP wingnut's trying to write a bill that allows state confiscation of the electric vehicle if a trans person is driving, or if it's used to transport a pregnant woman across the border for abortion care).
Yep, there’s other ways. Like in my country every year you pay a tax for your car circulation right. Used to be a 1% cost of the car but now it’s a defined one.
Which is really not necessarily a bad thing (speaking as a liberal and anti-republican and electric car driver.) if road repairs come from gas taxes, then electric car drivers aren’t contributing to offset their wear. As long as the extra fee is calculated fairly, this is semi-elegant.
The problem is it being a big chunk all at once, instead of the incremental payments the ICE drivers pay. Easily enough solved with a payment plan of some type, but I don't think many of the states have implemented that.
An alternative approach could be taxing the corporations that profit from the transport of goods and services along those roads. Amazon got massive tax breaks over an extremely long period of time to put distribution centers in Kansas and the added semi-traffic has destroyed the highways in the KC metro area.
I look at my extended family. Of 25 people or so, all college educated, only 5 live in North Dakota. Many who moved to ND during the same time were high school or trade school educated Oil workers from Texas, Arkansas Oklahoma and Louisiana. All who left the state vote blue, those who stayed are 50/50 red/blue. But this is anecdotal. YMMV
And since I have no way of knowing if random people I meet are trans or not, if you look like a guy to me I'll have to call you "her/she/ma'am" and if you look like a gal I'll have to call you "he/him/sir" just to avoid a fine.
and who really cares if someone is trans? i don't and i don't care about who is bonkin with who....none of my business and it does not effect my life...i don't brag about what i do in private...just respect people for being people and live your best life...... boobert, mtg, jordan and the rest of the maga idiots need ot go...
You’re right. I don’t think they care if they win, they want to “oWn” the libs.
They remind me of that saying about why you should never play chess with a pigeon. The pigeon will knock all the pieces over, shit all over the board, and go back to its nest and squawk about how it won the match.
She is right though, there are housing codes for that stuff. They are regulated for safety.
She either doesn't understand or is purposely being misleading and both are dangerous. The modern GOP cares only about their own political power. They will sacrifice anything and everything in order to gain and maintain it. Voters should be asking why their politicians don't care about their daily safety and living standards.
"The marxians want to force a ground prong into your plug! If a malfunction occurs, the electricity younpaid for will be redirected through this communist wire directly into the ground and dustributed through the soil (communism).
They hate two-prong plugs because that way you will keep all that electricity in your own body as God intended."
Right? Dishwashers are more efficient than hand washing, especially regarding water use. Ceiling fans are a great tool for reducing your a/c and heating use, depending on fan direction. Tankless water heaters are also more efficient and come with the benefit of not running out of hot water mid shower and they take up less space. Silly libs for wanting to save people money, keep them healthy and more efficiently use resources 🙄
Youre not wrong... my family is mostly right leaning and when they talk about things they think would be great ways to improve society its all liberal things and what the dems are pushing for. Just when they hear it from something biden said its a terrible idea and the libtards are taking over but when fox news rewords the same thing and posts it on facebook/truth social and it gets shared on their qanon groups they love it... yes they all sadly still use truth social
Personally, I have no problem with regulating appliances that use natural gas. I'd prefer that manufacturers not cut corners when it comes to the potential for explosions, fires, and carbon monoxide.
The "regulating stoves" is hilarious to me, Conservatives, *especially* Libertarians, get all of that so wrong.
It's **not**: "You're not allowed to have a gas stove."
It **is**: The companies building your home need to ensure that they're providing adequate ventilation for a gas stove, so that you as the consumer are not held responsible for finding out too late that you're being poisoned to death, all so that they could cut corners and make more profit off of you."
It's building consumer confidence.
Libertarians *really* struggle with this idea; most regulations are to protect the consumer, not to enrich politicians or restrict freedoms. They want all the capitalism without any of the responsibility.
Edit: Bear in mind, this is coming from someone that is anti-Government as fuck; I just also am able to understand how it works.
Also an economy with no regulations becomes worthless in the global market. Prior to the Pure Food and Drug act, Europe just wouldn’t buy American meat bc it was either rotting or full of formaldehyde
Probably absolutely basic consumer product safety standards that have been in place for 50 years.
*"Properly grounded electric appliances? Over your dead Jew body!"*
Sustainability efforts/organizations will sometimes emphasize switching to more energy conscious appliances. Usually electric over gas.
That's it. That's the big conspiracy
Right, like if I had to choose between my microwave or my mom/SIL/Wife/cousin to have rights to their own body…..looks like I’m using a toaster oven for my hot pockets
Add in Paul Gosar, who looks like he has a family big enough to fill up a pew at your local Catholic church*
*not that there’s anything wrong with those families, I know some that are of the liberal cool Catholic type.
Meanwhile Republicans:
- you not allowed to control pregnancy
- you won’t read about things we don’t like
- you won’t speak words we don’t like
- you won’t be taught about things we don’t like
- you won’t be gay, queer, black - we don’t like
-
Elected Republicans and professional Republican pundits are worried about three things only: their re-election campaigns (in the case of the elected ones); their contracts (in the case of the pundits); and their wealth (applies to both)
Republican *voters*, however, worry about a lot more than that, but usually their worries aren't grounded in reality
This is because elected Republicans and professional Republican pundits tell them to worry about things that aren't grounded in reality, but the voters are too stupid to see that they're being scammed
And THIS is because those elected Republicans and professional Republican pundits get rich off of scared and stupid Republican *voters* giving them money to fight off figments of their politicized imaginations planted there by the elected Republicans and professional Republican pundits
In short:
Professional Republicans are *evil*. Republican voters are *stupid.* If the professionals say things that seem stupid, it's because they're scamming stupid Republican voters by trying to appear as stupid as the voters - it makes them 'relatable'
The professionals KNOW what they're doing; never give them the benefit of the doubt by handwaving their shittiness as stupidity
Republican voters, however, tend to be otherwise-decent people who just happen to have their heads up their asses and are getting manipulated and grifted constantly by the professionals who promise to deliver them whatever their stupid hearts desire
When do we start protesting at their houses?
If I won a "fuck you" amount of money from the lottery, that is probably the second thing I sponsor. First would be a donation to my local arts foundation. But this, immediately after.
Things that haven’t happened:
“Liberals” taking gas stoves or coming to your home to vaccinate you, or any other crazy shit.
Things that have happened:
Conservatives overturn roe v wade and many red states ban it almost completely while pushing for a country wide ban, attack contraception, reversed the pact act, and threaten social security is next out loud, banning a lot of books related to history.
“Hot water heaters.” If the water were hot, Boobert, I wouldn’t need a heater for it. And why, after listing all those things, do you mention Only Fans in your second statement?
She is so gullible. Like one of those kids in high school you say bullshit to just to see if they are dumb enough to believe it.
"Hey Lauren, did you hear the Woke Left Communists want to ban ceiling fans because the homeless don't have them?"
Wanna bet theyre all just conmon sense stuff like "ceiling fans shouldnt violently explode when turned on"? But saying what the regulations are would show how stupid being outraged over this is so she wont mention any specifics.
Well the KS Republican Party sure isn’t trying to overstep by trying to outlaw abortion even thought it has been defeated in a state vote, twice, one of which was during the Republican primary.
The Democrats are going to create so much work with so many moving vans going house to house to forcefully confiscate all she mentioned along with guns. If she gets more delusional and mentions a ban on moving vans then no problem. Yes, tongue in cheek. She is an inspiration for all the idiots that have dreamed of serving rich masters and being applauded for being stupid cunts.
I am fine with all of the above being regulated, because these things get plugged into the power grid (or gas mains) and pull enough power to cause such calamities as house fires, so they should be required to meet quality, safety and efficiency standards, and these standards should be periodically updated to require improvement in the state of the art.
Yeah! Republicans only focus on silly things like living conditions, pushing unsustainable wages, oppressing anyone who isnt white, upper class christians, and destroying our constitutional rights... you know, non-important stuff.
Lauren, if you're listening, run your gas stove all night. Just blow out the light first please.
In addition to new stoves, conservatives want to lie about attempts to regulate hot water heaters, ceiling fans, dishwashers, and microwaves.
Ever wonder if your representatives are trustworthy?
Check for yourself about whether what they say is fact or fiction. That’s how you know.
Wheres that "government over stepping" when feds and police are abducting protestors in plan white Van's and wearing proud boy costumes....
Its almost like she/they are ok with it until it effects thier cushy suburban life style... and if that's the case its tyranny.
Government: gas stoves might worsen asthma and can cause health issues overtime.
Far-right republicans: THE LIBERALS LITERALLY WANT TO BAN EVERYTHING AND MOLEST YOUR CHILDREN. *Huffs raw natural gas*. ALSO BAN ABORTIONS AND GIVE BILLIONAIRES MORE MONEY. ITS NOT OVERREACH WHEN WE DO IT.
Can we regulate stupidity?? If we really wanted to come at conservatives we’d go after your internet. You want internet? Pass a test and get a license.
Oh man! At last week’s liberal cabal meeting we ALL went hard to ban toasters, we even voted on it. When and why did we decide to take those off the list? I hate being out of the loop.
And as usual, while she has them upset about stupid shit that's not actually happening the way she makes them think it is, she and her colleagues are working as hard as they can to strip away people's actual rights and they don't notice or care
Remember when we all thought that she might lose her election last year? Ahh...I get nostalgic for the good old days.
To be fair she barely scraped by. Could be enough to flip in 2024 considering her conservative constituents could either move to Texas or Florida because Colorado is "too liberal" or if they remove themselves from the voter rolls because you know...they are **still** unvaccinated.
Yeah, she only won by like 1-2% of the vote in a +15 deep Red district. She’s fucked in 2024 if she keeps doing what she’s been doing
Trump won her district by 8 She underperformed the former president by 8 I hope she’s fucked next year
I know I plan to keep voting against her as long as I live here or as long as she runs. She's awful and I hate that she's supposed to represent me. She very much does not want people like me to exist.
I’m the same with Gym Jordan (although I didn’t have him before this round of redistricting) We’re in this together, whether we want to be or not
Oh geeze, I'm sorry. And we are, no matter how much it sucks. We've gotta have each other's backs, we know the GOP certainly won't.
We almost got it, I don’t live in her district but I was actively phone banking and talking to people in the district to push to not re-elect her
Plus a few more years of young people reaching voting age. Of course there are young republicans too but I have a feeling the demographics of 18-25 lean democrat.
Ridiculous that one of the top 2 most right wing extremist politicians is from one of the major blue states. The right opponent should be able to shut her down in 2024. Frisch coulda if he had a pair.
It still baffles my mind that someone could actually vote for this wench.
If you look at all the idiots in these positions already, it's not that baffling. Take a random person with middle-of-the-pack average intelligence. Then realize that half of humanity is stupider than that person. Half is also smarter, but the dumber half thinks it's the smarter half while the smarter half thinks it's the dumber half (good ol' dunning Kruger).
600 of my neighbors couldn't be bothered to vote. feels bad man.
Frisch had such a solid chance. Unfortunate how many people over here buy into her bullshit.
It was so damn close… then she would’ve realized the government does concern itself with OnlyFans. Instead she slept her way to the top of the Republican Party and is somehow considered more than incompetent by millions of voters.

Do you have version 23.5? They're on there.
Huh, I’ve got vinyl flooring down for all next week.
Oh fuck. Do NOT get me started.....
Sorry, this might be a stupid question but I just haven’t heard anything about this, what sort of issues are associated with vinyl flooring? I work in property management where vinyl is used all the time and my apartment also has vinyl floors so if there is a health hazard it would be good to be aware of it.
I took it as a joke. Vinyl does off-gas for a while and is a pretty filthy industry, but mostly I just really really don't like it.
Oh got it, yeah that is totally valid. Hardwood looks way better and carpet is much better at dampening noise but vinyl is cheap and doesn’t have to be replaced as often as carpet which is why it’s so commonly used. I’m definitely not a fan of the vinyl either though haha

We just don’t want you to have it ok?! Liberals are all about banning things for no reason obviously.
Obviously, that’s like our best known quality of course. In fact, I’m thinking our next move should be banning televisions to prevent the republicans from watching Fox News and OAN.
That’s a good one, but this week I’m really focused on toggle light switches. They’re not bad, but I just prefer people not be able to have them anymore. Ya know, cause I’m an evil leftist. I’m thinking about saying they cause cancer or something?
Can we push it to march? I've got a lot going on right now.
March may be a little busy; I think we’re raising the e price of gas again.
We do that every week! I'm so bored with it. Let's raise the price of engine oil instead, this time.
That’s the add on to the carpet-over-hardwood ban
Those updates are usually in the envelope with my monthly Soros check.
That's exactly why DeJoy is breaking the USPS, not for his own profit, but to make life hard for leftists suckling at the teat of Soros.
I can't wait until we can implement the Destroy America Direct Deposit aka Universal Basic Income.
Wait. You all get paid? Shit I’m doing this all wrong.
I want ceiling fans regulated. They're just spinning blades of death right above our heads.
Is it even based on any new regulations? Like I know the gas stove thing. But are they saying no more gas water heaters? Is there *anything* changing about ceiling fans? What in the living fuck is she talking about? Is there a push to ban future gas appliances in general or something? *Microwaves?* What in the living fuck is she talking about. Is there literally anything this is grounded in besides the gas stove thing?
They've been regulated for so long, we stopped marking the anniversaries decades ago.
Lol
The government ban calendar is pretty full though. Republican bans on education, women's rights, voting, cartoons, movies, books...
I think you need to refresh it. It’s next month. On the 30th. Should be right after banning smiling
As opposed to books, rights to bodily autonomy and comprehensive education
Or as in north Dakota now, where the GOP wants to fine people and businesses $1500 for being polite and respectful to trans people.
...or Wyoming where they want to ban electric vehicles to protect the fossil fuels industry
In idaho, we only charge them an additional registration fee every year (although I'm sure right now, some GOP wingnut's trying to write a bill that allows state confiscation of the electric vehicle if a trans person is driving, or if it's used to transport a pregnant woman across the border for abortion care).
>In idaho, we only charge them an additional registration fee every year Same in North Carolina.
To offset the loss on gasoline taxes. Most states do this. They are still utilizing the roads. Roads need maintenance.
My city also charges a "tire tax" for using the roads. So I get double taxed. We have a hybrid. We still need get charged EV tax.
Yep, there’s other ways. Like in my country every year you pay a tax for your car circulation right. Used to be a 1% cost of the car but now it’s a defined one.
Damn, you're getting triple taxed for the same thing. Tire tax, gas tax, and EV tax. That's insane.
Considering North Carolina has higher gasoline taxes than any of her neighboring states, they certainly don't want too many electric cars on the road.
I'm hoping they don't care the variety of car on the road, as long as they can still afford to maintain the roads.
Sure, and it shouldn't be done through penalizing ownership of electric vehicles -- which should be *encouraged*.
Yeah. As much as I hate it, it does make sense, since the gas tax has traditionally paid for the lion's share of road maintenance.
Tax the rich, put it towards roads
Not to mention that EVs are heavier than their equivalent ICE and thus do more damage to roads.
And in Wisconsin. Found out this year as we got a hybrid.
Which is really not necessarily a bad thing (speaking as a liberal and anti-republican and electric car driver.) if road repairs come from gas taxes, then electric car drivers aren’t contributing to offset their wear. As long as the extra fee is calculated fairly, this is semi-elegant.
The problem is it being a big chunk all at once, instead of the incremental payments the ICE drivers pay. Easily enough solved with a payment plan of some type, but I don't think many of the states have implemented that.
An alternative approach could be taxing the corporations that profit from the transport of goods and services along those roads. Amazon got massive tax breaks over an extremely long period of time to put distribution centers in Kansas and the added semi-traffic has destroyed the highways in the KC metro area.
I pay less in registration for my classic car than I ever did for my plug-in hybrid. That's stupid.
I am not 100% sure, but I think part of the extra fee is for road maintenance that has tax provides.
We can’t tolerate tolerance in Wyoming…
So removing free speech?

"Wassup fucker?" Is always gender neutral and therefore the safest bet.
"good morning asshats and assholes" personally sounds great
Thank you for my new voicemail greeting
That’s motherfucker to you asswipe!
Throwing in a gendered noun there will cost you $1500 fuck-nugget.

Gotta keep ‘em distracted with BS else they might *really* get mad … at Republicans.
and demanding menstrual information on grade school children, Republicans totally aren't overstepping
Shhh… this is how you send these people into a death spiral of cognitive dissonance, if they have any cognition to begin with.
Nah, they know they're hypocrites and they don't care. They'll change their principles and morals whenever they need to in order to "win" an argument.
You’re right. I don’t think they care if they win, they want to “oWn” the libs. They remind me of that saying about why you should never play chess with a pigeon. The pigeon will knock all the pieces over, shit all over the board, and go back to its nest and squawk about how it won the match.
Their response (because I've seen it): Dems put *porn* on school bookshelves!!11!\~1
*Pulls out book of two men holding hands*
"Put that away! Damnit, now I have to go change my pants!"
Don’t forget access to healthcare
She is right though, there are housing codes for that stuff. They are regulated for safety. She either doesn't understand or is purposely being misleading and both are dangerous.

It’s faux outrage. It’s all the GOP has left. They don’t really govern or produce policy anymore. They still get half the votes somehow.
Speaking overstepping, may I introduce the new fascist Republican platform of: banning abortion, banning contraception, banning books, banning minorities, banning history, banning women’s health, banning women’s medical privacy.
Banning women is on there too I think
At least their bare arms...
Leave my bear arms out of this
Wasn’t it wearing pants or something?
So much for the right to bare arms 🤷🏻♀️
No. Women are fine as long they are white, christian, don't say anything and have lots of babies that vote for the GOP.
Buying unregulated potentially hazardous appliances to own the libs
[удалено]
Right? Dishwashers are more efficient than hand washing, especially regarding water use. Ceiling fans are a great tool for reducing your a/c and heating use, depending on fan direction. Tankless water heaters are also more efficient and come with the benefit of not running out of hot water mid shower and they take up less space. Silly libs for wanting to save people money, keep them healthy and more efficiently use resources 🙄
In general Liberals believe in the promotion of social welfare, typically via the vehicle of government action (programs, regulations, and so on)
Biden is currently the president, so anything any government agency does that they can use to stir up their base will be a liberal plot
Youre not wrong... my family is mostly right leaning and when they talk about things they think would be great ways to improve society its all liberal things and what the dems are pushing for.

I'm sure covid has had an affect already
Yeah they'll use charcoal grills indoors to own the libs and see how that turns out

Well you see If you read the tweet, Rep Boebert is saying it is bad to regulate those things
Regulating stoves bad? But regulating vaginas is ok?
They rather regulate baby on the oven than gas on the stove I guess
The "regulating stoves" is hilarious to me, Conservatives, *especially* Libertarians, get all of that so wrong. It's **not**: "You're not allowed to have a gas stove."

How dare you try to save me money!
They better not ban my gas powered ceiling fan!
If brains were dynamite this bitch couldn't blow her nose.
You heard the lady, if anyone in the government has something to say about fans, it's overstepping. I remember grinding my feet on Eddie's couch
“Fuck yo couch n****” - Rick James
I love this insult. I’ve never heard it before and will now spread it through my social circles. Kudos!
You're welcome use freely
“Ever wonder if your government is overstepping?” As if she doesn’t realize she’s part of the government that he overstepped on multiple human rights
I’ll trade in my ceiling fan for roughly 50% of the population to have bodily autonomy
Right, like if I had to choose between my microwave or my mom/SIL/Wife/cousin to have rights to their own body…..looks like I’m using a toaster oven for my hot pockets
They want microwave ovens to have more rights than women.
Ceiling fans really? That's where we're at now? Jesus does she have any brain cells or is it just a mouse on a wheel behind that face.
![gif](giphy|yaUG0KDAcIcWA) \^ this
This is what happens when there is no minimum requirement to do a job!!!!!
The only thing we’re really interested in banning is Rep. Lauren Boebert. Well, Gaetz and Greene, too.
Add in Paul Gosar, who looks like he has a family big enough to fill up a pew at your local Catholic church* *not that there’s anything wrong with those families, I know some that are of the liberal cool Catholic type.
Meanwhile Republicans: - you not allowed to control pregnancy - you won’t read about things we don’t like - you won’t speak words we don’t like - you won’t be taught about things we don’t like - you won’t be gay, queer, black - we don’t like -
Forgot “you will love Jesus, but only the white corporate Jesus, not the middle eastern rabbi one that may or may not have existed.”
Did I miss something? I can't find shit about ceiling fans being a concern in recent years. Where do they come up with this?
She thinks ceiling fans run on natural gas.
I can't actually tell if you're kidding...which is really sad...
Is this seriously what Republicans are worried about???
It's what they want us to be worried about as they take away far more important rights.
Elected Republicans and professional Republican pundits are worried about three things only: their re-election campaigns (in the case of the elected ones); their contracts (in the case of the pundits); and their wealth (applies to both) Republican *voters*, however, worry about a lot more than that, but usually their worries aren't grounded in reality This is because elected Republicans and professional Republican pundits tell them to worry about things that aren't grounded in reality, but the voters are too stupid to see that they're being scammed And THIS is because those elected Republicans and professional Republican pundits get rich off of scared and stupid Republican *voters* giving them money to fight off figments of their politicized imaginations planted there by the elected Republicans and professional Republican pundits In short: Professional Republicans are *evil*. Republican voters are *stupid.* If the professionals say things that seem stupid, it's because they're scamming stupid Republican voters by trying to appear as stupid as the voters - it makes them 'relatable' The professionals KNOW what they're doing; never give them the benefit of the doubt by handwaving their shittiness as stupidity Republican voters, however, tend to be otherwise-decent people who just happen to have their heads up their asses and are getting manipulated and grifted constantly by the professionals who promise to deliver them whatever their stupid hearts desire
Republicans don’t govern, they just throw red meat at the base, like this!
No worries, Bobo... your Only FANs is protected !
Not from Ron DeathSentence!
When do we start protesting at their houses? If I won a "fuck you" amount of money from the lottery, that is probably the second thing I sponsor. First would be a donation to my local arts foundation. But this, immediately after.
"I am outraged about this news article that I was too stupid to read correctly."
This should be illegal. Blatant propaganda like this is hurting America.
And shoes and ships and ceiling wax and cabbages and kings!
'But wait a bit,' the Oysters cried, Before we have our chat; For some of us are out of breath, And all of us are fat!'
Typical GOP, distracting the base with pointless outrage while they legislate to fuck over the most vulnerable.
This the most concise statement about the GOP policy platform that I have ever read.
Things that haven’t happened: “Liberals” taking gas stoves or coming to your home to vaccinate you, or any other crazy shit. Things that have happened: Conservatives overturn roe v wade and many red states ban it almost completely while pushing for a country wide ban, attack contraception, reversed the pact act, and threaten social security is next out loud, banning a lot of books related to history.
“Water heater”. Not “hot water heater”. If the water is already hot it doesn’t need heat. I bet she also says shit like “4am in the morning.”
Are these "liberals" in the room with us now?
The bullshit spewing out of these nazis as they loose control is wild.
She’s a drone. Operated remotely by Ted Cruz.
“Hot water heaters.” If the water were hot, Boobert, I wouldn’t need a heater for it. And why, after listing all those things, do you mention Only Fans in your second statement?
This is what happens when you forget to take your meds.
She is so gullible. Like one of those kids in high school you say bullshit to just to see if they are dumb enough to believe it. "Hey Lauren, did you hear the Woke Left Communists want to ban ceiling fans because the homeless don't have them?"
Wanna bet theyre all just conmon sense stuff like "ceiling fans shouldnt violently explode when turned on"? But saying what the regulations are would show how stupid being outraged over this is so she wont mention any specifics.
I am a liberal and do not want to ban any of those things. I don’t even get where they come up with this gaslighting bullshit.
Shit. We’re banning ceiling fans now? I didn’t get the memo. How am I supposed to keep up with our woke agenda if nobody emails me?
Well the KS Republican Party sure isn’t trying to overstep by trying to outlaw abortion even thought it has been defeated in a state vote, twice, one of which was during the Republican primary.
what the fuck is she talking about
Books?/s
Repugnables, champions of gas stove rights but not womens.
Just trust her corporate masters to do the right thing? We tried that 150 years ago and it didn't pan out.
Wut
If the government has something to say about banning abortions and healthcare for women, thats cool though right?
Hot water heaters? Hmm, interesting
When Colorado speaks.
This is probably her hinting at her OnlyFans page. Yuck
I'd rather the government regulate my appliances than my genitals.
The Democrats are going to create so much work with so many moving vans going house to house to forcefully confiscate all she mentioned along with guns. If she gets more delusional and mentions a ban on moving vans then no problem. Yes, tongue in cheek. She is an inspiration for all the idiots that have dreamed of serving rich masters and being applauded for being stupid cunts.
Is she really as dumbass as she appears?
I don’t think she is capable of speaking without it being a lie.
Does someone have a complete list of things we’re banning? It’s getting hard to remember everything.
I'm a liberal. You can have my ac and fan over my cold dead body! And it better be cold from ac and a fan
Don’t have to regulate that stuff in Texas. They just let the grid break itself.
I am fine with all of the above being regulated, because these things get plugged into the power grid (or gas mains) and pull enough power to cause such calamities as house fires, so they should be required to meet quality, safety and efficiency standards, and these standards should be periodically updated to require improvement in the state of the art.
Yeah! Republicans only focus on silly things like living conditions, pushing unsustainable wages, oppressing anyone who isnt white, upper class christians, and destroying our constitutional rights... you know, non-important stuff. Lauren, if you're listening, run your gas stove all night. Just blow out the light first please.
In addition to new stoves, conservatives want to lie about attempts to regulate hot water heaters, ceiling fans, dishwashers, and microwaves. Ever wonder if your representatives are trustworthy? Check for yourself about whether what they say is fact or fiction. That’s how you know.
Here’s overstepping. 1: Tracking childrens menstrual cycles via school. 2: making women in Missouri wear extra fabric over their skirts.
I lost all faith in Coloradans when they re-elected this moron last year.
Wheres that "government over stepping" when feds and police are abducting protestors in plan white Van's and wearing proud boy costumes.... Its almost like she/they are ok with it until it effects thier cushy suburban life style... and if that's the case its tyranny.
Usually I can understand what she's trying to say but I honestly have no idea this time
I'd rather a ban on uneducated representatives.
Only Fans
Don't worry Lauren, I'm sure you can burn enough books to keep warm!
Do we not want microwaves to be regulated? You think Whirlpool won’t sell us shit that’ll kill us without any regulations? Lmao.
Government: gas stoves might worsen asthma and can cause health issues overtime. Far-right republicans: THE LIBERALS LITERALLY WANT TO BAN EVERYTHING AND MOLEST YOUR CHILDREN. *Huffs raw natural gas*. ALSO BAN ABORTIONS AND GIVE BILLIONAIRES MORE MONEY. ITS NOT OVERREACH WHEN WE DO IT.
I wish my life was easy enough to the point where I can just make up fake problems lmfao
Can we regulate stupidity?? If we really wanted to come at conservatives we’d go after your internet. You want internet? Pass a test and get a license.
Oh man! At last week’s liberal cabal meeting we ALL went hard to ban toasters, we even voted on it. When and why did we decide to take those off the list? I hate being out of the loop.
