Remember, DEI was created to prevent the hiring of the unqualified just because they were white.

Trump and Vance are the revenge of the unqualified white idiots.
I LOVE THIS!!! Awesome that the VP from Ohio broke Ohio State's trophy. I love that for Ohio and OSU. Fuck OSU and JD Vance. This just made my day.
I've wanted a flag for a while now, that was OSU but with Michigan colors; idgaf about sports but i think it'd be hilarious to see people frothing at the mouth over it 🤣
Green and white is more fashionable 😉
Whether coming from PA or MI, it's almost instantly recognizable when crossing into Ohio; the drivers are awful and the roads are worse.
Ohio sucks
Yeah but imagine if a black woman had done it. We'd need to question her abilities as a black woman and call it woke and stuff. /s
A black woman expertly played a flute and MAGA insisted that it was "to remind you that nothing you care about has any value."
No Silicon Valley techbro will ever be president, because they can’t fake being human long enough with cameras around. The complete lack of experience with anything approaching real life will expose them over and over again.
No New York trust fund property developer will ever be president, because they can’t fake being human long enough with cameras around. The complete lack of experience with anything approaching real life will expose them over and over again.
No California Hollywood actor and former head of the screen actors guild will ever be president, because they can’t fake being human long enough with cameras around. The complete lack of experience with anything approaching real life will expose them over and over again.
(You know it sounds silly when you say it for the third time and it still happens...)
Kudos to TreVeyon Henderson for low-key trolling the Republicans by being a black man in a tan suit. No way that was an unintentional choice.
? How is that trolling?
Seems like doing a PR op for them, or am I too European to understand?
It was a huge controversy for conservatives when Obama wore a tan colored suit.
Mhhh. That's a lame cultural memory. I guess Republicans are gonna republican. Thanks
Obama wore a tan suit once.
Republicans went apeshit due to this fashion choice.
I remember Obama ate dijon mustard once too. Media firestorm.
Those were simpler days.
I'll bet the reason they don't send back the Maryland man is because he's already dead. I don't want that, I hope he can safely return to his family, but the reason they're not returning him is because something has happened that money cannot fix.
I've had a similar thought.
Dead, or severely hurt. Or the system purposely dehumanizes so much that there is no way to connect a person to a real identity anymore.
Or El Salvadorean president is trying to leverage the situation to get something big in return. It's an unpleasant dehumanizing situation, but the man is now a bargaining chip for them.
I agree but what exactly does that have to do with a football trophy?
You say "basic tasks", but you try crashing the economy once.
What a ghoul like Thiel sees in this couch-fucking fuckup I will never understand.
Probably sees someone who will do exactly what he tells him to. Nothing more complicated
Vance is a lapdog that does what he is instructed like a good little boy.
Fucking DUI hires....
video of that moment including the quote that he broke it on purpose so that nobody can get it after Ohio. Wow.
Sometimes I look at the politicians from my country, and think to myself "gosh, what a bunch of sleezebags. Even I could do a better job". And then I see this and come back to reality.
I mean, my politicians are still sleezebags, but not at this level, and that doesn't necessarily correlate to my ability to actually do better than them with no actual experience.
These folks are the me that didn't stop at intrusive thoughts. Who thought that just because they were raised on silver spoons and bailed out at every blunder they knew better.
If only it had been a couch trophy.
I'm not sure fucking it would have been any better.
James Donald Bowman is a clown.
I'm not sure which is funnier, this clip, or the one of Bezos' eating shit when he walked up to the latest capsule after touchdown.
When they say they will deport any citizen who hates America, I assume that still means we are all allowed to hate JD Vance. Even the republicans hate him.
DUMBASS!!!
How are you supposed to lift that trophy? In the video looks like it fell apart when the other dude picked it up from the top part. Tbh I wouldn't expect it to be that weak.
Apparently, the trophy actually comes in two parts. It's supposed to come apart. Vance didn't know that, picked it up the wrong way, and it came apart and (when it hit the ground) broke.
It might be more valuable now as a civil rights activist talking point trophy.
Just imagine if the trophy had been in the shape of a couch.
Between the Ted Cruz curse, Trump's favorite team getting destroyed in the Super Bowl, and JD Vance breaking Ohio State's championship trophy, the lesson is clear. Don't let Republicans anywhere near your team.
Fumbleeeeeeee! Whoa Nelly!
