Trump is selling 'God Bless the USA' Bibles for $59.99 as he faces mounting legal bills

Former President Donald Trump is hawking Bibles as he runs to return to the White House. The presumptive Republican nominee Tuesday released a video on his Truth Social platform urging supporters to buy the “God Bless the USA Bible."

I am disappointed that it's apparently actual bibles tho, when it should've been copies of "the art of the deal" with a bible cover slapped on

We're talking about characters that are so obscure that unless you're a hardcore Kunio-Kun (the actual Japanese titles from the NES and SNES days)

I'm aware, but 10 year old me who just got the game for the NES (and later would rent Super Dodgeball specifically because I recognized the art style in the screenshots on the box) would have had no idea that River City Ransom and Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari were the same thing. I didn't get too deep into the franchise until I was in high school and decent NES and SNES emulators were a thing (aka around the release of NESticle and ZSNES). Since the late 90s, I've played most of the games in the franchise, with a majority I've missed being sports games that are technically part of the franchise but not exactly the same kind of thing - though I have yet to play the ones after River City Girls mostly for time reasons (one of the downsides of full time employment, lots of overtime, and a wife - they all eat away at your time for gaming).

Clearly her "diversity rays" loaded into the bridge over time, and blinded the helmsman, who then couldn't see the bridge anymore... or mistook the pillars for a +50 point target.

Hm, but on the other side: Maybe the boring never-ending inclusion meetings bored the harbour-engineers so much that they forgot to plan better protection for the pillars?

Or God himself broke the rudder, to ram the heathen-administrated bridge? We all know that god works in mysterious ways.

It COULD somehow be her fault, so let's insinuate in that direction.

Lets face it guys. They got us. That boat was obviously trans and thus not qualified to be in the water.

March 27, 2024 - Baltimore Key Bridge collapse

The bodies of two of the construction workers who died after a 984-foot-long cargo ship hit a pillar of Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge have been recovered, officials said Wednesday.
www.cnn.com www.cnn.com

This has nothing to do with the "DEI" Mayor unless you want to make a play against democracy in favor of white-led rule. it has to do with poor infrastructure policies made by the US federal government in particular. The Europeans have invested in mainly physical infrastructure, the Americans in mainly software infrastructure, and China in both. Not a good sign. I don't want to be ruled by CPC authoritarians. If the right cared about it they would back BIden given he has signed multiple physical infrastructure deals, but no let's blame a random democratic mayor for doing at worst following the trend of underinvestment in mainly physical infrastructure.

I read an op-ed just now that postulated ‘dirty’ fuel was a factor in this debacle.

According to the article, less than scrupulous refineries will sometimes pawn off less refined fuel to firms who are penny pinching, unobservant, corrupt or desperate or any combination thereof. And an effect of the less than stellar fuel is that it can stall the engines and take the ship’s systems offline.

That sounds like something the Russians would do, cringe.


Screw it, I don't care what rules are on this site. Fuck that guy, I hope he rots. I hope his family's grief is large, I hope his kids, and grandkids are unhappy to the point of tears. He's the Democrat's Kissnger, but at least he didn't even live that long, and at least both of my grandmothers lived longer.

This guy killed the public option for the ACA which would have funded a federal insurance plan that would have been self-funded with no profit motive, but his douchebag insurance companies in Connecticut lobbied him to do otherwise. How many people did he kill doing that in America? Fuck him.

I hope his last moments were painful, and hurt like hell. HAHAHA, you died.

Edit: Please tell me this fuckers grave.

Is extremely intriguing how many of the daily wire and other reactionary RW pundits react to even the mere mention of Sam Seder like they're vampires hissing at garlic-covered crosses every time. It's legitimately their kryptonite, we should pressure them more to debate him, at all opportunities.

It's not that intriguing. Sam Sedar is a terrible debater and a really very talented troll and they're all super annoyed by him.

I want to post something too. Didn't have much eye on politics (You know... self-help because of depression.

But when i read things like "This is like a south-park episode" and "No opposition? Unanimous vote? WHAT THE HELL?" and other countering with: "Remember liberal democracies are the minority in the UN"

So: Saudi Arabia heads the women's rights commission from now on. Just wow...

If she's interested, get her the co-op with you on RCG. Make it unique bonding time together.
Click to expand...
We've been playing the Oregon Trail remake and a weird word game for switch and I've been trying to talk her into It Takes Two because I've heard it's specifically a good choice for that. When I first started playing RCG it was with a houseguest who's a nice guy but I'm glad he's gone - he was supposed to be staying for about 3 months and it ended up 9. I've still got several storage totes worth of his stuff I wish he would come pick up.

We've had a doozy of a day again in dutch politics. Apparently a news site called Voice of Europe, which Geert Wilders praised as "an antidote against fake news" is actually a Russian run propaganda group that has been paying dutch politicians. Thiery Baudet's name was menioned obviously, but seeing as Wilders has loved Russia and Poetin even throughout their invasion of Crimea, and shooting down MH17, he's on the suspect list as well. And he knows it because he immediately went into the offensive calling for an investigation and how we need to find out whose responsible for this. :sneaky:
