Democratic leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives have condemned a raid on Rep. Ilhan Omar's home as "deeply disturbing" and accused the Trump administration of a "rogue abuse of power" just weeks ahead of November's midterm elections.

Let's see if they do anything besides strong words and maybe some paddles.

Republican California gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton is targeting Spanish-speaking voters with an AI-generated ad that shows a caricature of a trans girl playing soccer against high school girls. The ad even features an AI-generated version of his Democratic opponent, Xavier Becerra, taking a policy position that he does not take in real life.

The ad is raising questions about how AI is used both to create problems that don’t exist – the ad used generative AI to portray the trans girl as a much older man pushing cis girls around in a high school soccer game, which doesn’t happen in real life – and to put words in political opponents’ mouths.

Someone was requesting more hornyposting. Old spinsters get horny too, love.

But seriously if you don't love Golden Girls what's your problem?

Also Big Black's "Songs About Fucking" is one of the best albums in existence.

Apparently engagement on that other site's r/conservative dropped by 2/3 when Russian data centers went down due to drone strikes.

Hey, this is gonna be a different kind of post...

So...I just wanted to say sorry everyone. I really went places today and tbh, I spammed the shit out of this community with my own bs posts. I have an entire folder of stockpiled memes about various stuff, that's where I get my materials.

I just really wanted to apologize. I get that I'm annoying as fuck and everyone here must see that now. Even going as far as to discuss my medications and hormonal health here. I was stupid, I greatly overdid it.

Sorry everyone. I'm the worst.

YouTube's algorithm randomly decided to put this on my feed and it was exactly what I needed ro lift my mood.
