“You have to do us a favor first”
Repubes voting for the genius behind “nothing but a perfect phone call” won’t give two shits
Gotta have coors t-shirts because Fox News is screaming about bud light
Holy christ
Only thing new about it is not using ALEC or the Heritage Foundation as a go-between tbh..
"and the Budget Committee is looking at how to ensure the industry cannot simply buy off politicians in order to saddle taxpayers with the bill,”
I wonder if he said it with a straight face.
They'll settle for loosely related anecdotes.
Panopticon is one of my favourite artists. He wrote a song about trump, and it's great. The lyrics are damning too.
So you're gonna fix our problems
By lining your friends' pockets
For new jobs and a stronger economy
Bring back American jobs
From distant foreign shores
When for years you sent 'em off overseas
Adopt the conservative agenda
And attack your criticisms
With rhetoric as blunt as it can be
Issue license to anyone
For acting like an asshole
Credence to every bigot in this country
Your arguments are flimsy
Your logic paper thin
Exactly like your skin seems to be
Closing off the borders
Rapid fire executive orders
Implement your immigration policy
It's time to take responsibility
Instead of passing blame
For the heritage of shit that we pass on
Take a deep look in the mirror
Stop trying to make fine art
From the lines in the sand that we've drawn
Or to make things crystal clear
I certainly don't blame you
And I don't give a damn who lives in that house
You are just a symptom of an inherited disease
You can't always blame the itch on the louse
That was... sure something
You can really tell that the newsroom at Mainstream Mediacorp is doing good work when the politicians are doing your job.
