Random Thoughts (Political Edition)


The women yelling for the reporter to "shut up" is 80 years old N.C. Rep. Virginia Foxx who voted against Katrina disaster relief and yep also voted to overturn the election.

A government responsive to its citizens... SHUT UP! SHUT UP!

Further coverage of Americans hellscape:

Some two and a half hours drive from Newbern, the town were blacks can't be mayor, is Smiths Station. Described as real life Mayberry, the small town where everyone knows each others business, was rocked as secret crossing dressing mayor and pastor was outed. He killed himself.

Republican Mayor and pastor F.L. Bubba Copeland had a private life... right wing media changed that.

The story was featured in 1819 news which is created by the Alabama Policy Institute, a non partisan totally not Republican Koch Brother free market bla bla with a staff that removed their names because they are not proud of their work because Pride is gay presumably.


They direct the hyper partisan "news" site 1819news. Below is the original article outing Copeland.

In 2016, when F.L. “Bubba” Copeland challenged incumbent Smiths Station Mayor LaFaye Dellinger, he ran with the vision of growing the Lee County hamlet between Opelika and Phenix City. | Alabama News

By all accounts there nothing wrong with Copeland politics and he was reelected to another term.

The only thing was he crossed dressed and because it's so hated he killed himself.

You know because Republicans did so well in last night's election. All they have to do is continue to concentrate on abortion, culture wars...
