Republican patriarchy will never respect, nor trust, women.
Conservative men project betrayal as they vote for men with no loyaty, no honor, no integrity.

"I’ve rolled my sleeves up my whole life," Oz said, pointing to his work as a cardiothoracic surgeon and his philanthropic ventures.
"It’s what I’ve done my whole life and what I’ll continue to do," Oz added. "I challenge my opponent: What have you done rolling your sleeves up in your own life to make life better for the people of Pennsylvania?"
....
I do not look like a typical politician, nor do I look like a typical person. I even lack the political metaphorical sleeves to roll up — all I ever wear are short-sleeve work shirts because hard work is the only way to build our communities back up.
On my left arm, I have the zip code 15104. That’s Braddock, Pennsylvania, my home and the community I was honored to serve as mayor for 15 years. My wife Gisele and I are raising our kids here in Braddock, right across the street from Andrew Carnegie’s first steel mill.
On my right arm, I have nine different dates. These are the dates when people were killed through violence in Braddock while I served as Mayor, starting in 2005. Seven out of nine were gun deaths. I actually have to get one more date added because, in June of 2018, there was another tragic loss of life.

Two things can be true: Fetterman is currently giving Oz a swirly in the memes and online bullying game, but I have a feeling that Oz is likely holding his powder dry with the jogger issue, and is going to blanket the airwaves with that and Fetterman’s health issues in the closing weeks of the campaign when it’s too late to do damage control.

PA: fine it’s just until he’s outta office right?
PA’s Uncle: lol no
Honestly it doesn’t surprise me that Palpatine would be the type of douche to purposefully misgender someone (continuously) considering what he’s done in the Star Wars universe.
So, like, how I'm picturing this first meeting between the PA and Anakin.
"Ah, so you're the Chancellor's new Personal Assistant," Anakin smiles kindly, if not a little awkwardly, "Nice to meet you ma'am." You make a face, "I use they/them pronouns." Anakin laughs awkwardly, "Well, the Chancellor refers to you with she/her, so that's what I'm going to use." You stare at him silently. "Anyway, can I go in?" You smile pleasantly, "No." "I...what?" "He's in a meeting." You say, "You can schedule an appointment, just like everyone else." Your smile widens, "You're not above the rules, Padawan Skywalker." "But...I can always just walk in-" "The Chancellor has an open appointment in three weeks a 4 pm. Does that work for you?" "...I...yes?" "Excellent. I'll pen you in. If you need to cancel for any reason please contact me within 24 hours or I'll have to charge you an inconvenience fee." "...that's not a thing." "It is. Would you like me to show you where it's written in the Charters?" You lie with an easy smile. "...no thank you." Anakin backs away, "I'll just...go then." "Have a nice day, Padawan Skywalker." Anakin leaves, and the office door opens only moments later, "Huh, my dear, I thought I heard Anakin?" "He had to leave, something about lessons. He did make an appointment for three weeks though. I thought it prudent to block of some time for your mentorship." You lie effortlessly to the Chancellor. He blinks at you, and then beams, "That's very forward thinking of you, my dear. Well done!"

All work has dignity. Every paycheck must, too. It’s time to raise the minimum wage to at least $15/hr in Pennsylvania and across the country.

One of these is Uncle Fester from the Addams Family. The other is the democrat senate candidate in Pennsylvania. Can you tell which is which?
Me neither. And listening to Fetterman talk doesn’t help, either.
Now sing the official democrap campaign song with me (to the tune of the Addams Family song)…
🎼 They're creepy and they’re sneaky 🎶
🎵 Mysterious and spooky 🎶
🎵 They're all together kooky 🎶
🎵 The demo-crap par-ty 🎶
This fuck you message is for the anonymous triggered fagcist bitch who sent the note telling me that “no one is interested in your political opinions” and that I needed to “STFU.” It’s also for all those just like you who are brave when you think you’re anonymous, are behind a computer screen, or are part of a mob. You are not in charge, you are not entitled, and most people don’t believe the dumb shit you do. NO ONE appointed you to speak for anyone else, totalitarian bitch! Now…cinch up your robe and go upstairs. Your mommie will probably make you cocoa so you feel better.
Now…back to our regular programming.

Behind Maui Wildfires: US is Never a Positive Agent in Climate Change Fight
— Anthony Moretti | August 16, 2023
Tumblr media
Illustration: Xia Qing/Global Times
Maui, one of the most awe-inspiring places on Earth, has been devastated. Horrible fires - exacerbated by increasing temperatures and drought associated with climate change - have turned this paradise into something resembling a war zone. The pictures do not lie.
Fair or not, because climate change showed up in such a brutal way on Maui, a place the rich (and perhaps not so rich) consider one of their playgrounds, the challenge to re-create paradise will be carefully watched. Much like the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, damaged by fire more than four years ago, it has to be repaired perfectly - because global audiences are demanding it - Maui will have to be made perfect, or as close to it, because global eyes are watching.
This is the short-term problem: Make Maui great again. And compared to the long-term problem, it will be the easier one to handle. The more vexing, time-consuming and difficult challenge is combating climate change, and there is legitimate worry across the globe that the US is not committed to addressing it.
Unfortunately, President Joe Biden and his administration are not doing enough to be a force for good as burning wildfires and intense heat continue to define the summer of 2023. Yes, his administration has committed $370 billion to clean energy and other climate-supporting projects, which have also spurred job growth. On top of that, one of the more symbolic, but important, steps the White House recently took was sending climate envoy John Kerry to China. There, he examined with Chinese officials a variety of ways the two countries can ensure a safer climate for decades to come.
Yet, Biden has not used his so-called Bully Pulpit, the power that comes with being president and therefore framing the narrative on specific issues, to spur oil companies to do the right thing. A recent New York Times editorial called out big oil for "prioritizing dividends, share buybacks and continued fossil fuel production over increasing their clean energy investments" as this fact "suggests they are unable or unwilling to power the transition forward." Audiences must ask if those words "unable or unwilling" also apply to the president: Why is he not saying forcefully and often that oil companies must champion newer and cleaner energies? If he will not demand more, then who will? And if he will not do it now, then what will the ramifications be in the years to come?
And remember that there are darker clouds on the horizon. On the one hand, results from a recent Pew Research Center poll indicate Americans are aware of the problems associated with climate change and the opportunities the US could take to address it. However, almost one-in-three respondents still wanted the US to continue investing in what can be described in 20th century energy sources such as oil and coal.
Let's take these somewhat sanitary data and summarize them this way: Should Republicans are given the majority in the House of Representatives and Senate in 2024, the US will not be at the epicenter in the fight for a healthier, greener and sustainable planet.
With Republicans running Washington, the aforementioned climate envoy John Kerry will be sent into retirement. The global community, including organizations such as the United Nations, will be laughed at when it calls on the US to engage in meaningful conversations about the climate.
Not possible? It is definitely possible. Forget for a moment whether Donald Trump is the Republican presidential nominee in 2024. Keep in mind that he maintains a vise-like hold on the party; even if someone else is chosen to challenge President Biden in the general election, no Republican who hopes to maintain his or her political power can stray from Trump's beliefs. And one of those beliefs is that climate change is nonsense.
Despite the overwhelming evidence that climate change is real and is causing havoc across the globe and despite America clinging to an outdated idea that it is a place of "exceptionalism," there is no promise that political elites will lead on the issue. Closely related to this, there is no certainty that the public will rally to the cause. If the world's current No.1 economy draws a conclusion that it can remain in that spot by ignoring climate change, then the world can forget about the US being a positive agent in the fight against climate change.
