You mean pass a bunch of unconstitutional garbage that turns a deep economic downturn, that could have been solved in 24-months like the 1920-1921 Depression, into the decades long Great Depression? Then threaten to effectively end a co-equal branch of the American government? And finally cause a splintering of the Democrat party where one side of the Democrats set about arranging mercenaries to take out the other part of the Democrat party until the military leader they hired, Smedley Butler, spilled the beans on the impending coup? That is the plan you want? You want the Democrats to pursue establishing a new great depression and a civil war?

I watched this a bit earlier today. 100% agree.

Imagine being a person all filled with righteous indignation, a sense of moral superiority, believing you're a good person... but then the moment you see a 17 year old son get emotional about his dad being nominated to become the Vice President of the United States of America, while his dad calls him out as the most important thing in his life in front of the entire United Center who is going nuts with cheers and applause, you think what a pathetic puffed up soy boy that 17 year old is. You feel this way so strongly that you go to twitter and make a very explicit case that this kid is an example of why the Democratic party is weak and the alpha-Chad MAGA party is the answer, because in this increasingly technological world, what we need are muscle-bound man-children who need a woman to feed them (and do their laundry, and clean their room, and organize their social schedule, raise their children with limited assistance, accommodate any passing whim and fancy) or else they will die.

Our society is so basic that we don't have time to treat unusual people with humanity. If you're disabled, or different, or non-cis, you are worthless in this brutal humanity. You are an unacceptable burden.

Also, I understand he has a non-verbal learning disability. That doesn't mean he can't talk, it means that he can't learn through non-verbal cues. So, by saying aloud "That's my dad," he was highlighting it for himself to remember the moment. Just thinking about that makes me cry, honestly. Truly beautiful, and to mock that if just completely despicable. The people who can't understand that have have never felt a moment of pure love in their lives.

It seems that right wingers making fun of this child is par for the course tbh. Is it really much different than when Trump made fun of that disabled reporter back in 2015 or 2016? The cruelty is the point. We have a party that has embraced racism, sexism, cruelty, and all around douchebaggery. Was making fun of Walz’s kid a new low? Maybe. But I’m guessing if you drew a venn diagram of people who made posters depicting Obama as a gorilla or Michelle as a man, people who got off on Trump making fun of that disabled reporter, people who thought Trump calling a porn star “horse face” was funny, people who mocked Joe Biden for loving Hunter, and now people laughing at Walz’s kid, you’d have a perfect circle.

The de-sensitizing of 30-40 percent of the country really got going with Rush Limbaugh on the radio and Fox News. The rise of the tea party and the billionaire money to feed that wretched movement against the first black president poured gas onto this reactionary movement. And now Trump became its leader. He gave millions of Americans permission to act their worst selves.

Has any elected Republican denounced any of these public “conservatives” for going after walz’s son? I bet I can guess the answer. That side has become de-sensitized. There’s no shame anymore. Anyone decent has already left the party.

As the world eagerly awaits CNN's upcoming interview with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, many people are wondering how far-reaching and hard-hitting the questions are going to be.

Through extensive media networking contacts, The Babylon Bee has obtained the following exclusive list of questions from CNN's interview with the Democratic presidential ticket:

  1. "If you were one of the characters from Friends, who would you be?": We're thinking Monica, she's SUCH a boss.
  2. Are you team Edward or team Jacob?: The platform we all need to know.
  3. "You're, like, so amazing. Sorry, I guess that wasn't a question.": But it's SO true.
  4. "Where did you come up with your brilliant idea to build a border wall?": It just came out of nowhere!
  5. "What do you think about feminism? Do you like it?": Very tough, but fair question.
  6. "Is it difficult being a woman in politics? Same question for you, Vice President Harris.": Finally, a moment for Tim Walz to get some attention.
  7. "Are you brat? Or ARE. YOU. BRAT?": It's a trick question. She's obviously BRAT.
  8. "Your opponent is basically Hitler. Can you tell us why that's bad?": The hard-hitting questions we've all come to expect from CNN.
  9. "Would you rather fight 10 duck-sized Trumps or one Trump-sized duck?": Sources say Kamala will lean toward fighting the single giant duck.
  10. "Can we please, please hear that adorable laugh again?": Journalism at its finest.
Powerful stuff! Leave it to CNN to only bring out the deepest, most informative, and probing questions.
