Trump's "just grab them by the pussy" quote was revealed to the public almost a decade ago, in October of 2016.

Trump's successful assassination attempt was in January of 2020, after his first impeachment but before his second one, and before the "excess deaths" from the pandemic killed more Americans than all wars combined.

Trump's conviction of rape was one year ago.

How long has it been since Trump even traveled to NYC, from Florida - didn't he even move his "home state" status there officially a couple years back?

Other places changed their names to remove the toxic Trump phrase multiple years ago in the past.

Click bait article seems to be dredging up click bait drama, about some rich folks who now (why NOW all of a sudden!?) worry about their property values being affected by the Trump name - as the article states, not bc of anything that he did, but bc he's currently under investigation and so due to the negative stigma attached to that, i.e. rich folks worry that they may be less rich soon. Sorry / not sorry if I don't care in the slightest.

While true that the timing is shit, the amount is nowhere close to "table scraps" - this seems like it will legit be helpful, maybe even enough to turn the tide in Ukraine?

Also, it's not like Congress fed its own and then waited months to feed the dog - rather, dinner for the entire family was delayed from the start of the fiscal year 2024 in October 1 until just a few weeks ago, involving the ousting of one Speaker of the House and almost doing so to the second as well. And now, this aid package for Ukraine may likewise finish the job of getting the Speaker kicked out, bc any time the government is "functional" is considered bad by some elements.

But the timing from passing the federal budget itself to passing this aid package is actually quite short. Yes it's half a year late, but it did eventually happen, and the amount of aid is large, so is a "success" by multiple metrics, and all the more so given the opposition. If we do end up having a civil war as people like MTG are calling for, this may well be the last aid package that the USA ever manages to pass in the final stages of its democracy.

So imho we should take the win and be happy - we may not get to celebrate Congress doing routine activities like "passing budgets" very often in the future, even six months late.

Too late - it is posted to !dankmemes@lemmy.world, so it is a meme now:-P

This meme seems... moist. :-P

Oh wow, I didn't realize it differed on the client side, I presumed it was only server.

Except "nobody listens". Well that's not entirely true: Obama's administration created an entire pandemic response team whose sole job was to prepare in advance for when something like that was bound to inevitably happen - like figure out what to do, how to do it, how to handle getting the complex messaging out to people who are not comfortable with a lot of details or the varying levels of uncertainty that was going to be inevitable, etc. But who would ever want anything that that man (cough of color cough - what?, I didn't say anything, I just coughed is all!) touched? I heard that he even has cooties, eww gross! From a reliable source even - a Stable Genius who uses all the best words!

Anyway, it's a good thing that the next inevitable pandemic (that will definitely 100% happen) is absolutely certain to need zero federal funding, bc it will never ever happen, so we can all just go back to our regular lives, safe in the knowledge that the top 0.1% will be fine no matter what. The Economy will go on and on... all praise be to The Economy.

This does not go nearly far enough imho. The woman on the right needs to be literally enslaved, in bondage (but not the fun kind) while the woman in the red dress needs to be appreciated not just in passing but during every waking moment of every hour of every day, with every thought, hope, wish, dream, prayer, and most importantly action dedicated to her eternal happiness, but more importantly her happiness right the fuck NOW in the next quarter.

Also it's not just the USA but the entire Western world... and quite frankly the entire non-Western one too just with Profit substituted with Power.

But the REALLY fucked up part is that literally nobody that I have ever met IRL has ever acted that way, though conversely who doesn't have that culture going on at their workplace? It's a HIGHLY skewed distribution where the "job creators" act that way, and not even like 99% of them but only the billionaire and wannabe class, and bullies, whereas everyone else seems to remember the human... except, for whatever odd reason, when it comes time to vote.:-(

Show us what you got!?

Well that answers one question... and begins to spawn a whole new series of them:-).

Uh, ma'am, this is a Wendy's... did you want to like, order any food?

There most definitely could not have been a show without her! :-P
