Bengals psycho and Political junkie. I'm neither conservative/liberal. Summarizing complex humans into one word doesn't make sense to me. Both can have benefits. Intolerant of MAGA.

They raise tariffs, costing massive taxation for all companies, especially small businesses that can't afford it. They pass a "BBB" that analysts say will dramatically increase the deficit. And now they're attempting to bribe you for the mid-term elections.

Can the Bengals win w/ Joe Burrow?

The 1970 #Bengals team went 3-6; won the AFCC. Total defense and scoring defense both ranked 9th out of 26 teams.

In 2025, Bengals total defense (426.6) and scoring defense are both last (33.3). Their pace will be the worst in NFL history for a 17-game schedule.

Local Democrat is one that actually has a spine:

"U.S. Rep. Greg Landsman, a Cincinnati Democrat, plans to vote against a deal to reopen the government because it would not guarantee the extension of the health care subsidies, which are set to expire at the end of the year."
Landsman opposes shutdown deal that split Senate Democrats

The New York Jets became the 17th team to return a kickoff for touchdown and a punt for touchdown during he Super Bowl era.

The last team to reach this milestone was the Baltimore Ravens on Oct. 15, 2017.

The #Bengals have never accomplished this.

The #Bengals have had three players surpass 200 yards rushing in a single game.

1) Rudi Johnson, 202 yards (Nov. 28, 2004)

A gestapo agent brandishing his weapon at Little Village. CBP raided that neighborhood, leading to confrontations as the gestapo kidnapped a young woman. Angry crowds demanded her release, DHS said shots were fired towards them.

I have to ask: what did they expect?

Trump admin ordered to fund SNAP in full, but the order was temporarily halted by the SCOTUS. In a confusing middle-of-the-night memo, the Administration wants to remove food stamps that people had already received?

Another Trump voter that regrets voting for him because he didn't fulfill his campaign promise. Shocking. They must have forgot 2020, and all of his other broken promises. His voters are the biggest suckers and will probably end up voting for him again anyway...

These gestapo agents are psychopaths.
ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”

He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care

This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person

They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota
