I believe his full name is Shitheart Fuck'dBeard The Dickless

It's pretty simple, Rafael Cruz: just help the people out and you have nothing to worry about. Being a dick is what makes you scared.

Damn lazy ~~liberals~~ ~~kids~~ conservative lawmakers just don't want to work anymore - if they picked themselves up by the bootstraps and did their job of representing people, they'd be liked and wouldn't need a taxpayer-funded armed security detail to protect their widdle feewings.

So much for personal responsibility.

Only those, who know how much they're hated by everyone, request shit like this. Fuck Tedd and fuck his weazly stupid voice.

The bullying is working, keep it up folks

Fled Cruz is afraid he might have to talk to the people he represents.

Maybe if Ted wasn’t a complete douchebag he wouldn’t be heckled in airports for being a complete douchebag.

And if he thinks having cops with him will keep me from calling him a weaselly little bitch if I see him, he's very wrong. He and his ilk have me clean out of fucks at this point. Eat shit, Rafael.

It should say:

Ted Cruz pushes bill seeking escorts for US lawmakers at airports

Pretty sure it’s how he met Boebert

Back when she answered to "wrblgrbl" — and by "answered", I mean her ears twitched in that direction.

Idk, man... I'm pretty sure Putin is afraid of taking a stroll in the market square.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago

My thoughts exactly. He has to clear the whole streets to have a stroll.

Government doesn't have enough fear, I say. The horrid laws still being passed are evidence
