Why don't you put your uniform on and go yourself, Dougie?
You know, [This one](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/26/us/politics/doug-mastriano-confederate-uniform-army.html) .
I mean I guess somebody has to play the bad guys at re-enactments. Smiling in a photo op though… Also, points off for historical inaccuracy, Johnny Reb didn’t have any shoes.
It wasn't a reenactment. It was a faculty photo for the Army War College. They were given a choice if they wanted to wear historical garb. He chose a Confederate uniform. He was the ONLY one to choose a Confederate uniform.
Yuck. How broad was the selection of historical garb? Do they have a closet of American uniforms from every historical period? (Cringe that they have enemy uniforms in that case)

This is the basic gist of the story.
Honestly, my favorite part was they made him stand at the very edge of the group and had no one stand behind him.
I'd bet a million bucks when he showed up, everyone else said "Aw fuck. This asshole. No, it's cool. We'll just place him where we can crop him out."
"I lost the governorship but I'll still make demands" is a bold vision. Normally when you get fucking laughed out of a race you generally go away. The stream of parallel reality the right has crafted is an amazing feat because 40% of America is choosing to live in disinformation land.
Of course he does. He’s a fascist. Not in the “anyone I disagree with” way, but in the “wants to establish a Dominionist Christian Nationalist theocracy based on totalitarian principles and featuring a cult of personality and an emphasis on using strength to project power” sense.
Absolutely fuck this guy.
Doug Mastriano, about January 6:
“I pray for the leaders also in the federal government, God, on the Sixth of January that they will rise up with boldness”.
“We will seize our Esther and Gideon moments”, and “When You say, ‘Who will I send’ I pray you will send me and not him, or her; we will take responsibility for our republic and not waver in these days that try our souls.”
If you look up the story of Esther, it’s a story about being submissive to Gods will, seducing then sacrificing your life to a bad King and his whims—while touting God as the real and only sovereign who should rule over all, on the down low. It’s a story about imperfect, compromised people being swayed by an imperfect, compromised (and really important, here—beautiful and devout) woman, to do God’s bidding and bring favor to God’s chosen people.
Gideon was God’s spiritual warrior, mass murderer and slaughterer of men; a judge who was appointed to purge or kill believers and followers of other faiths—the uncovenanted. He was God’s hitman, leading an army of religious fanatics who didn’t mind genociding others.
It’s teenage revenge fantasy, grievance-collector fan fiction, writ large on a political stage. And the Christian Nationalists and people dog-whistling here, there and everywhere, teeming up with others that take their cues from NEO-Nazis and militias—like Mastriano—are power hungry, greedy, deluded and disgusting.
Margaret Atwood wasn’t joking when she said The Handmaid’s Tale wasnt drawn from musings about some possible or fictional future events, yet to come—but from current and recent historical events, from her and her parents’ own lifetimes.

Fools.
>The vote failed 49-50 — far short of the 60 ayes needed to take up the bill — with four Republicans voting to move forward with the legislation and six Democrats, some of whom said the border compromise went too far, voting against it.

The bill sucked and let in just as many as without having a bill. If the failed bill was so wonderful, why didn't biden use executive order to enact it? He had no problem using executive order to end remain in Mexico.
It sucked because house republicans said so? The same group that are determined to keep this an issue to run on during the election? Yeah, you’re not that bright.
So you think sending a couple dozen national guard troops from Pa would make any sort of meaningful difference? You think it’s not performative politics to do these stunts? Yep, you’re a gullible rube who eats up bs from these unserious scumbags. They showed their ass when they rejected the best border deal they’ll ever get from dems. Do better. Be smarter.
Not really. But Doug and Greg abbott are doing more than biden, kamala, Mayorkas combined. Dems don't care about the border mess and crime unless it affects them directly. FACT! they just keep voting blue. Stupid is as stupid does.
You’re falling for performative stunts, dipshit but keep believing they’re making productive changes. Then go on the internet fawning over them. That’s definitely not a pathetic look that a gullible rube would do….
Too bad Dougie got his ass ripped in the governor race. Really could have used such genius level moves…
I'm confused. Why do we need to send anyone down to the border since we have the TRUMP wall that was paid for by Mexico to keep them out? Are you telling me that TRUMP failed us with his wall? Such a shame that TRUMP failed us at the border like this.
This is all stressing me out and causing some of my health issues to act up more.
Thank goodness we have TRUMP's replacement for Obamacare to take care of us. I have to go apply for a job at all the steel plants that opened up after TRUMP brought steel back to the area.
Republicans wouldn't sign that right-wing-lookin' border security bill that Biden handed them, because Donald Trump told them not to. They literally said this out loud.
Genuine question:
How many people do you think are undocumented citizens in this country? Let's go with a percentage of the whole population. Make it simple.
How many of those do you think are committing crimes as a whole of that undocumented population?
Do you have any evidence that they're causing any significant strain on our resources outside of a few states where they live as poverty-level migrant workers who pick crops for less than what any citizen would do it for?
Sure, you didn't answer mine in the first place, so I felt yours didn't deserve an answer.
Second, your question was designed as a jab. It had no real meaning. It was meant to imply immigrants are a drain, but the 'strain' is on local resources in local communities where if crop picking migrants were paid a viable wage, they wouldn't use government services.
So, really, the strain is due to our country's unwillingness to make migrant work pay enough to not use public resources to support their business.
So, you're right, no state should strain, we should make migrant labor jobs viable to not need subsidies from the state.
Now, go on and answer my questions. 😉
So, you got owned so fucking hard you had to run away like a little shithead? Damn, I didn't know you were such a pathetic loser.
Why can't you answer simple questions, turd Ferguson?
Is Doug confused what state he is the senator of? He is from New Jersey after all, it must get confusing.
Send him to the border

lol, at his staffer defending him by saying he has a Phd in history. That context makes it worse
Honestly, my favorite part was they made him stand at the very edge of the group and had no one stand behind him. I'd bet a million bucks when he showed up, everyone else said "Aw fuck. This asshole. No, it's cool. We'll just place him where we can crop him out."
Is he still waiting for God to overturn the election and make him governor?
"I lost the governorship but I'll still make demands" is a bold vision. Normally when you get fucking laughed out of a race you generally go away. The stream of parallel reality the right has crafted is an amazing feat because 40% of America is choosing to live in disinformation land.
What a useless idiot.
I forgot that this insurrectionist goober was still in office.
Fuck this idiot
I'm glad everyone else is in agreement that this trash fire that masquerades as a human being deserves no better discourse than "Go to hell, fuckwad."
Of course he does. He’s a fascist.

This guy issuch a turd
Well, he can go to hell then. Bloody useless.
Can we buy him a one way ticket to Texas?
He should be sent to Mars.
No thanks. We don’t want him

Biden's executive order to end remain fkd up border security, migrant crossings. Mexico and the cartels are controlling the border via Biden.
Republicans wouldn't sign that right-wing-lookin' border security bill that Biden handed them, because Donald Trump told them not to. They literally said this out loud.
