The same eight people have won the Maryland lottery 2,305 times (!!) in two years. Seriously.
A state legislative audit of the Maryland lottery found that the same eight people are winning over and over, and since 2020, these individuals have won the lottery 2,305 times with winnings totaling $4.5 million.

Back in the 1990s, early 2000s, you could see in downtown Rio de Janeiro posters glued at walls openly stating the intention to buy your winning lottery ticket, as well as a phone number for contact. I'd expect a more sophisticated way of laundering money in the US, but OTOH, it's a tried and true method.The same eight people have won the Maryland lottery 2,305 times (!!) in two years. Seriously.

EDIT: Just read the article. US$ 4.5 million? That's not money laundering, that's ye olde inside job pilfering.

California liberal “absolutely baffled” by all the Trump supporters at a rally who said they’d be his friend
It's always fun to see people's stereotypes get absolutely busted.

And that's with massive padding by the Amazon.
Don't go to Starbucks but I've encountered this shit at Panera Bread. How can you wear a PRIDE pin and have dyed hair while serving and having friendly conversations with BOOMERCON customers who just a moment ago were talking about 'How Wokeness is ruining public schools' in a very loud manner.
They also have a code to enter the customer bathrooms so transients won't shit all over the walls and shoot up drugs inside.
Very Based move by the Martha's Vineyard Karen's.

So Pelosi is actually insane right?
How the fresh hell does she expect that to NOT be an attack on sovereignty, America might be the world's premier super power, but that doesn't mean an American Politician can try to impeach someone NOT IN American government.
EDIT: Wait, it's not notthebee, it's the bee... ok, right, phew, just satire...
fuck that I had to double check says something about me or about the times and I'm not sure which and either way it's not good.

tbf, I didn't recognize it as satire either. I laughed because the idea of this dumb cunt marshing into the congress of Italy and expending to leave unharmed is hilarious.
They made two episodes of a Californian couple moving to Texas.
This might be an ongoing series.

Come look at this breakdown of how much the SCOTUS justices talk and tell me if you notice anything 🤣
It's beautiful:

This ties amusingly into the Left's inability to say anything in few enough words to make a good meme.
Clarence Thomas...12 words per argument...anyone know how many of those cases he was on the 'winning' side of? I'm curious b/c that's a whole meme in itself!
its not what you say its how effective you are with the words you do use.
That said Clarance Tomas is a god damned treasure and i'm esatic we have him around.
