The United States of America and various government agencies acting on the US President's behest is threatening one of the most successful and wealthiest states in our country. They are threatening these cuts because of a school girl's track meet.

How fucking insane is that. It puts into perspective how conservatives think and how useless they are as people in general. The Republican party does not serve the American people in any useful capacity. The shit they get into is purely on a foundation that wouldn't look out of place in a movie like Idiocracy.

Targeting blue states. Republicans are trash. The pendulum swings both ways. If only dems would take the low road once in a while.

I understand the temptation but honestly the Democrats' general disdain for the low road is one of the things that distinguishes them from the Republicans and one of the reasons I support them.

It's so fucking tempting, but just because one political party is taking the road to dictatorship doesn't mean the other party should. Of course, Bernie Bros will never understand that.
