something supporters said would help fight pedophilia
 
The legislation, presented last week by Fidesz, was on its face primarily aimed at fighting pedophilia. It included amendments that ban the representation of any sexual orientation besides heterosexual as well as gender change information in school sex education programs, or in films and advertisements aimed at anyone under 18.
 
What the actual fuck? These people shouldn’t have jobs in government. Or the entertainment industry, for that matter.

Even for Tucker, that’s pretty unhinged. They must really be feeling the pressure from Newsmax and ONAN.

Condensed Milk - State-Approved Compensation

Don’t know if it was brought up before, but Chipotle has increased the price of their burritos in order to compensate for paying their employees $15 an hour instead of $7.25 on top of ensuring their CEOs keep their multi-million salaries and bonuses. They increased their menu prices by roughly…3.5% to 4%. So their burritos are approximately $.36 more expensive.

That’s it? If I pay nearly $10 already for a stuffed burrito I now have to pay slightly more than a third of a dollar extra?
 
I’ve been told for years that businesses can’t pay their slaves or else the customer won’t be able to afford to eat there.
 
Shit man, between this news and the earlier news of an ice cream parlor of all things getting flooded with over a thousand(!) applications when they announced $15 wage I’m beginning to think there’s no downside to not paying poverty wages.

Tucker Carlson is trending on twitter.
 
So the Jan 6 insurrection was first antifa, than no it wasn’t an insurrection at all just peaceful tourists, then hold on, it was the FBI.
 
Conservatives really can’t settle on who to blame… maybe there should be some sort of a commission to investigate what happened?

he’s saying that the jan 6th rioters are actually innocent and that the ones behind it all are actually undercover FBI agents trying to make them look bad

That’s right, doubling restaurant employee wages has lead to an unacceptable price increase of less than half a dollar. Please pay no attention to the corporate lobying or the millions upon millions the executives get as base salary and bonuses.
 
And remember, paying your employees enough for them to actually survive is a bribe now.

Study Finds Biden’s American Jobs Plan Would Result in Fewer American Jobs
 
Biden’s big infrastructure package is making me more and more nervous. It’s like when someone says they’re going to turn their whole life around by setting giant lofty goals… which end up failing because the goals they set for themselves are so big all at once their is not way they would succeed. It’s a job’s plan, and an infrastructure plan, and is made to target racial inequalities. His focus on the infrastructure portion of being all American made would also mean that money will not go as far. Now if the jobs portion actually won’t be creating more jobs it seems like if this plan were to even be implemented, which is doubtful, it won’t accomplish much.
 
I would much prefer a plan devoted just to infrastructure. Find ways to improve infrastructure, do it for cheaper by not limiting it to American made, and find ways to cut down on the red tape so the money will go further.

The House just voted to award the Capitol Police who confronted the Jan 6 insurrection the Congressional Gold Medal, one of the highest accolades available for citizens. In a 406-21 vote.
 
The 21 Representatives who voted no were:
 
Andy Biggs, Arizona
 
Lauren Boebert, Colorado
 
Michael Cloud, Texas
 
Andrew Clyde, Georgia
 
Warren Davidson, Ohio
 
Matt Gaetz, Florida
 
Louie Gohmert, Texas
 
Bob Good, Virginia
 
Paul Gosar, Arizona
 
Marjorie Taylor Greene, Georgia
 
Andy Harris, Maryland
 
Jody Hice, Georgia
 
Thomas Massie, Kentucky
 
Mary Miller, Illinois
 
Barry Moore, Alabama
 
Ralph Norman, South Carolina
 
Scott Perry, Pennsylvania
 
John Rose, Tennessee
 
Matt Rosendale, Montana
 
Chip Roy, Texas
 
Greg Steube, Florida
 
And yes, every one of them are Republicans. And yes, every one of them are basically a who’s who of Trump brown-nosers. So it’s no surprise why they think people who protected our democracy (eventually…) don’t deserve commendation. Massie in particular took some extra offense at how mean it is to call Y’all Qaeda’s inbred cries to hang the VP and overthrow democracy an “insurrection”.

He’s right. The technical term is “autogolpe”.
