New Bill Would Eliminate Taxes on Social Security Benefits

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bill-...204450893.html

Another great Dem proposal that Repukes will absolutely hate. Voters in Red states will still, against their self interest, vote for the Repukes. Ignorant fools.

Caribou Barbie loses special election for Alaska House seat

https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/31/polit...ots/index.html

Quote:
Democrat Mary Peltola won the special election to fill Alaska's House seat for the remainder of 2022, according to unofficial results released by the Alaska Division of Elections, thwarting former Gov. Sarah Palin's bid at a political comeback -- at least for a few months.

With her victory, the former state lawmaker will flip the seat held for nearly half a century by the late GOP Rep. Don Young, and is set to become the first Alaska Native in Congress.
ROFLMAO! Too funny!

Palin lost in Alaska? McCarthy has it right--voters too are perceiving a GOP quality problem!

Helluva speech from old Joe tonight.

Polls are pointing toward the Democrats holding both houses in congress in November.

Instead of a drawn out post I'll keep it short. MAGA, Biden won without you in 2020. If you're not willing to support our democracy (democratic republic) and follow our constitution then go pound sand.

Thanks Bob, my ears are still ringing from listening to that bozo cackling.
Or perhaps its the sound reflections from her paddle ear rings, all highs and no lows.

Why Caribou Barbie’s loss is a warning for the GOP
A chunk of Alaska’s Republican voters, who strongly favored Trump in 2020, preferred a Democrat over the lightning-rod candidate.

https://www.politico.com/news/2022/0...laska-00054633

Quote:
Everyone who could read a poll or a room in Alaska knew Sarah Palin was unpopular in her home state. What was jarring to Republicans about her defeat in a U.S. House race there was that so many conservatives were unwilling to vote for her, anyway.

In an election that could spell disaster for pro-Donald Trump hard-liners in states across the midterm electoral map, only about half of voters who supported a more traditionalist Republican, Nick Begich III, as their first choice in Alaska’s new ranked-choice voting system marked Palin as their second pick.
So, not all of today's "conservatives" are as dumb as Whell, thankfully.

Good lord what a nut bag. At least she's not crying voter fraud from the hilltops but I think she's telling Alaskans they're too dumb to understand ranked-choice voting. Someone did say a vote for her was a rank choice tho'. Has Lord Felthersnatch of MAGA-Lardo commented on her loss yet?
