You know what I despise most about MAGA hate mail?

It's just incoherent. 99.99% of MAGA complaints are a farrago of terrible grammar, lurid recountings of utterly fictional sins against the Umber Demon, and pointless rage.

They read like a kind of Mad Libs for window-lickers.

Sen. Joni Ernst could've torpedoed Hegseth's nomination for defense secretary. She's a military veteran and survivor of sexual assault. Hegseth was credibly accused of abuse of women, including rape.
Joni Ernst's "yes" vote will make women less likely to come forward. She voted for sexual assault.

Matt Gaetz is a complete abomination. So is every Republican who helped cover it up for years.

Sweden's remarkably clean power grid. In November, this was its electricity generation mix:

Hydro 38%
Wind 31%
Nuclear 28%
Bioenergy 4%

Zero coal or gas.

When the economy collapses and MAGA reaches the find out stage, I’d like point out that 74,936,918 of us proudly voted to elect this amazing lady. That’s all, carry on.

Pete Hegseth has vowed to stop drinking and raping women and is getting his mom to call senators asking them to give him a job as [checks notes] Secretary of Defense. The Hegseths are the family of party values.
