I uhh also find it an interesting choice to make a video about illegal immigration spliced with a Japanese anime where a song is freaking sung in Japanese the whole freaking time

Model minority status maintained
Soft power superpower status confirmed

Probably more fights in the stands, which will make the Jets games more entertaining.

To be fair this is fairly bipartisan. The Bernie Bros love them some Brandon.

Plus it's hard to compare a bunch of drunk hicks cursing to all the highly political league sanctioned excrement that's occurred.

If people want to not hear anti-Biden chants they should simply implore the president to do a better job and stop pretending Congress has his balls in a vise

Are you trying to argue that "Let's Go Brandon" isn't political now? Would love to hear it.

No, I'm arguing that pretty much since the time I've been in high school my friends on the left have argued that "everything is political" when I just want to be left alone in terms of enjoying my respective hobbies and pastimes free from a political bend.

Lets Go Brandon is obviously overtly political, it's also incredibly benign given the rhetoric spewed by those who didn't like the head of the previous administration.

Look forward to hearing the outrage from Republicans about this.

(Just kidding, I'm presuming it will be the usual mix of silence and whataboutism.)

On Tuesday, lawmakers from both sides of the political aisle ramped up pressure on House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., to take action.

Rand Paul literally got attacked by his crazy neighbor and the left collectively laughed at it. Steve Scalise was moments from death, and Joy Reid and the like tried actually placing culpability on him because he was opposed to Obamacare. But of course, that's just whataboutism, whereas when the left points out any perception of a differing response, it's principled opposition.

FWIW, it was a dumb tweet and he shouldn't have done it even if AOC is a contemptible sack of excrement.

I didn't even need to open that to know who was speaking out about it from the Republican side of the House.

I think that's just what happens when you quote a message that itself was just quoted text.
