And Jan 6th was a peaceful protest.

Get the fuck out of here, we've all seen the videos.

Anyone who claimed Ashley Babbit was a hero damned well better be falling over themselves condemning ICE shooting Renee Good.

But no, they are calling it domestic terrorism.

Fuck every single one of these assholes.

Fascists lie. It's kinda their thing.

Anyone else starting to feel surrounded and assaulted by Kristi Noem and the rest of ICE?

She also tried to claim that someone inserted the puppy murdering bit in her book to make her look bad, even though she was familiar enough with the story to answer questions about it before it got backlash. In other words, she's a psychopath who never seems to get better at lying despite the constant practice.

She's the kind of liar that would shit herself and immediately claim someone else did it.

I watched the video with my own eyes. Kristi Noem is a lair.

They don't like being surrounded and assaulted? How do they think the students at the school they raided yesterday felt?

This headline is OK, better than many, but I think it should be shorter. Verbs like "lies" or "misrepresents" or "tries to deceive" would be more descriptive.

republicans lying? whuuuuuaaaaaaaatttt?

[–] LMurch@thelemmy.club 9 points 2 days ago

Republicans hate the existence of video.

Look at how ghoulish she is. We can’t ignore how weird they all look.

They can’t even hide how awful they are, they just look like dolls to appease their leader. Look at her weird eyes and her corpse hand.

Disgusting subhuman trolls.

Judge people on their actions, not their looks.

It’s actually ok to point out when people get insane plastic surgery to please a cult.

People are so hung up about “looks” we can’t even point out that they’re totally unnatural.

She could be a main character in a Twilight Zone episode.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They CHOSE to look this way because their souls are terrifying.

[–] calliope@retrolemmy.com 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

This is literally correct. Why are we pretending it’s normal to want to look this way? It’s mental illness, something is wrong with them.

They intentionally look weird to please their god king. That’s absolutely insane.

people say that about me for being trans.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I am absolutely judging these people on their looks. They deliberately put on ghoul masks to signal their cult status.

[–] pet1t@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

crusty gnome

And I wonder, once again, what will it take for Republicans to grow a conscience.

just like she claimed her german shorthair pointer was attacking poultry before she executed the dog, or that her perfectly healthy horses were lame so she executed them in a gravel pit,plus also a goat.
