IIRC the Affirmative Action Bake Sale was pioneered in the early 1980s by right wing Dartmouth Review student newspaper writers (probably including noted convicted felon Dinesh D'Souza and Laura Ingraham) So yeah, it's a "joke" that is at least forty years old. Fresh as a daisy.

Republicans posted:Pretty sure that's an old picture, I'm sure I've seen that exact sign before. Yeah, that picture alone is pushing like 20 years old at this point. I seem to recall it was very 2006-ish, maybe 2008, around the time Obama started rising to prominence and the right wing in America just got super mask-off racist in response to Black President.

She ran as a Democrat because that's the only way to get elected in Hawai'i but she's always been a homophobic warhawk so she'll fit right in at Fox.

Disney is a pile of poo poo but  at seeing settling a town of tax payers with their massive resort upkeep costs and billion dollar bond as a win and raising their property taxes by hundreds of dollars. Disney had already been paying the town their property tax without the town giving anything back to Disney. It was basically a free influx of cash for the town to use. What a win!

Of all my most MAGA relatives, two have moved to Florida in the last year. And they aren't even snowbirds, or geratrics, both youngish (30-40 y/o) people. Ironically, one of them just bought a Telsa lol The Musk brainworms are working.

Trump ages slower "During a Fox News segment about the 2024 race, Perino noted that former White House Secretary Jen Psaki had recently pointed out that Trump is 76 years old while Biden is 79. But Perino said that Trump's age might not be a hindrance like it would be for Biden. "Eh, I don't know — everybody ages at a different rate," the Fox News host told Kellyanne Conway. "So, we can maybe set that aside."" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3YVDhHRYiQ

DeSantis's culture war bullshit won't fly outside of the reddest, chuddiest states. Exactly, and that's why it's so exciting. If they instead conclude that DeSantis won on messaging and strategy, they're going to double down disastrously. And if not, it might be even worse for them because in swing states they'll have half weirdos and half moderate conservatives trying to maintain a unified message.
