You couldn't even understand how funny that is to a guy who lived off of $7,200 in 2022.

Seriously, Second... Thanks for starting my Christmas off with a belly laugh and a smile.


Each year The Economist picks a “country of the year”. The award goes not to the biggest, the richest or the happiest, but to the one that improved the most that year.



I would certainly hope that they improved.

They've now gotten $113 Billion in gifts from US Taxpayers in 2022 alone. And this last $45 Billion gift comes at the cost of 19 Million Americans losing Medicaid in April of 2023.


It would be like giving Rookie of the Year status to a guy who was shot up with horse steroids all year by his coach while the media turned a blind eye to that and the corked bat that Sammy Sosa gave him, all while the stadium they played in crumbled around them and they couldn't afford to repair it because his salary ate up all the revenue.



Fuck Ukraine.

Growing up in a Republic was nice... Shame we couldn't keep it.

It is states controlled by Republicans that will be kicking people off of Medicaid. Those states hated the idea that Covid was a public health emergency ("PHE" in the legal jargon) and hated that Congress forbid kicking people out of Medicaid during the PHE. That you would think this Medicaid eligibility (more legal jargon: "continuous enrollment requirement") was about lack of money, then blame Ukraine rather than Republican state officials administering Medicaid, is so very you, 6ix.

Don't look at me. I didn't vote for it...

But Every Single Democrat Did.

--------------------------------------------------

Growing up in a Republic was nice... Shame we couldn't keep it.

When Medicaid became law, the states would administrate the program, doing the tedious paperwork that Republicans in Congress insisted be added to the law to exclude what Republicans think are "undesirables" from Medicaid. In the states controlled by Republicans, such as Texas, Republican state officials do what they can to exclude "undesirables", but in the original legislation there was an escape clause to thwart Republicans: the Federal government could, temporarily, override the local Republicans during a PHE (public health emergency). Local Republicans have always wanted to kick "undesirables" from Medicaid, but they also want to blame it on Ukraine or Democrats, not themselves and their own mean-spiritedness.

Nope. You can't explain this one away.

Democrats own this one. They had the power. They didn't need to open the doors for any states to cut people off of Medicaid in April of next year, but every single one of them voted for that this week.

19 Million American's will be thrown off of Medicaid in order to fund over $900 BILLION in military spending, including the $45 Billion going to Ukraine that alone could end worl

For my 2022 taxes, I'm adding Voldemort Zelensky as a dependent on my 1040.

I won't get as big of a credit now that Democrats voted unanimously to remove the enhanced child tax credit with the recent Omnibus Bill, but what's left should pay for the increase in gasoline and home energy expenses under the Joe Biden* administration.

BTW... Is he 5 years old yet? I get more if he didn't turn 5 years old yet.

Russian-born historian Sergey Radchenko wrote about what Putin will do next: We need to steel ourselves for a painful struggle that may take years before it is resolved in one way or another. When Putin sees the world through our eyes, does he see unflinching conviction and a willingness to go to the brink? He probably doesn’t. That contributes to his confidence. A year on, there is light at the end of the tunnel. It’s Putin burning down his off-ramp as he prepares for a long, long war.
https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/what-will-putin-do-next/

Sergey Radchenko tweeted: “Russia is being turned into a garrison state, where people live short, nasty, brutish lives, and where all reality ultimately resolves itself into misery, tyranny and war.”
https://twitter.com/DrRadchenko/status/1605572912127176704

What will Putin do next? Sergey Radchenko puts himself in Putin’s position to predict his final move:

Russia is a nuclear power, and so I can’t lose. Would Hitler have used all the means at his disposal if he could avert Germany’s defeat? Yes, he would. That’s my premise, too. I will push forward, until I have no options left. With God’s help, I will win, but if I don’t, I am not averse to dying in glory. We all must die someday. Why not today? Why not in the service of the Great Russian Idea? That is what they don’t understand. They think I will flinch when faced with the choice: defeat (and my humiliation, and even ouster) or the end of civilisation. Had the end of civilisation ever looked more attractive?

But civilisation does not have to end – not at all. There is a long way to go from irradiated Ukraine to a global nuclear cataclysm. They – the Americans – will have to make the choice to escalate. Will they? I doubt it. They know that I know that in the big scheme of things, Ukraine is a sideshow. For them, that is. Not for me. For me it’s a matter of life and death. For now, I will keep the nuclear card in reserve. Some say it’s just an empty threat. Maybe it is and maybe it isn’t. Let’s find out when it comes to it.

Let’s be clear ok. The Democrats had a history making mid-term election. Trump has legal problems too numerous to list. The House Republicans can’t get their act together enough to elect a House Majority leader. And if they do, not only will he not have the power to get anything done. He’s going to be led around by the nose by the Republican looneys. That is going to be very entertaining and helpful to the Democrats in 2024.

Now, Biden wins again. He is signing a just passed 1.7 trillion-dollar Federal spending bill. A bill the house Republicans threatened the Senate Republicans not to pass. It includes 45 billion in aid to Ukraine and our NATO allies. 777.2 billion in nondefense discretionary spending. 858 billion in defense spending.

It includes The Electoral Count Reform Act. $47.5 billion for the National Institutes of Health, $9.2 billion for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and $950 million for the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority. It has a $13.4 billion increase for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. It has a boost of $28.5 billion for child nutrition programs.

New Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers they say would support over 11,000 additional low-income households, as well as a boost to maximum Pell Grant award.

Eight amendments adopted include proposals aimed at allowing proceeds from assets seized from sanctioned Russian oligarchs to be put toward Ukraine aid . Plus a measure aimed at strengthening protections for breastfeeding workers and another dealing with compensation for 9/11 victims.

Biden just keeps winning guys, so again I say let’s be clear. All the news is, has been, and is going to continue to be, happy news for me, not so much for you.

Merry Christmas, America!

Volodymyr Zelenskyy is the Grinch who stole your children's medical insurance in April.

Merry Christmas, Citizens of Earth!

Fuck your hunger. Democrats would rather watch you starve to death and team up with NeoCons to feed the war machine instead.

Sorry to tell you this, but kicking Russians' asses is a National priority. Not your priority but who the hell cares what your priority is, dear Putin lovers 6ix and Signym? In contrast to National priorities, groceries are a very local problem and so is health care. If your state legislature and next-door neighbors don't care whether you die, too bad for you. Move to where people care. Citizens of Trumptard-controlled states should look to their Trumptard legislature and governor for food and medicine. If your Trumptard government won't do what you want, vote them out of office because Congressional Democrats from rich California feel no legal or moral obligation to pay for angry poor white trash Trumptards' healthcare and food in Indiana, especially after Trumptards piss on California.

Do you remember the ORIGINAL issue that the neocons used to wedge Ukrainian society apart and depose a democratically elected President?

A trade deal! With the EU! When Ukraine should have been focusing on the corruption which was draining their economy and distorting their society, western NGOs (funded in large part by the USA) hammered on this "trade deal")

Russia and Yanukovich were willing to negotiate a three-way deal between the EU and the EEAU, but the EU, propelled by "fuck the EU" Nuland, refused to negotiate.

The EU and USA-funded NGOs (AID, NED, etc) turned trade into a "civilizational choice between west and east". By constantly hammering on it, polarizing people and setting up snipers...BTW Yanukovich had agreed to all the protest demands including early elections before being violently deposed... the USA set Ukraine up for a civil war at best, and a war with Russia (which was our real intent) at worst.

And who the fuck gets anything out of ginning up this war except neocons and their lobbyists, corrupt Ukrainian oligarchs and the military industrial complex?

100,000 dead Ukrainian soldiers. Billions of American taxpayer dollars pumped into the pockets of corrupt politicians and oligarchs.

Yeah, Merry FUCKING Christmas to us.

Second didn't even know Ukraine was a country until February of this year.

Yeah. I knew what was going on and I remember.

The only reason Ukranians didn't fold in two weeks this year is because the $100 BILLION plus we've given them, only to see weapons systems we've gifted them turn up in the Middle East and Africa this year.

All Ukraine is, is the biggest money laundering scam the NeoCons/MIC/Democrats have ever inflicted upon our country and the world.

Fuck Ukraine. Fuck Joe Biden*. Fuck NeoCons. Fuck the War Machine. Fuck Democrats. And Fuck Second and Ted and all of their soy fueled pussy coward facsimiles out there for being so stupid and gargling the balls of the fucking Bushite NeoCon monsters they used to pretend to be against 20 years ago.
