Oops, meant to respond to video. Sorry about that.

It's the whispering. I have the same response to ASMR videos, they rage me out like I should turn green, grow a bunch of muscles and rip my clothes.

So yeah I am stuck between loving that video and wanting to throw my phone across the room.

For doubters, it's called misophonia.

I live in Missouri, we are a majority red state, as in deep red Q level state. We have some purple, but we are a red state.

Claire was too centrist ... when given that choice, they vote in the worst ... she beat Akin because he got too out there with his “legitimate rape” comment ... Harley just “looks nice” and these peeps are truly not good at making character judgments

They know a white supremist when they see one.

That is why they are so dangerous.

Reagan, W and tRump.

Rotten to the core populists and liars, ever one......

We must find ways to shatter the self-righteous facade of each one during campaigns.

Why do people continue to promote their stuff?

John Weaver, co-founder of the anti-Trump Lincoln Project, acknowledges sending 'inappropriate' messages to several men

Co-founder of The Lincoln Project, John Weaver, has admitted sending "inappropriate" messages to several men after allegations surfaced this week

Several men accused Weaver of sending them unsolicited and sexually-suggestive messages, some of which also made offers of employment or political advancement.

They were total failures. A greater percentage of Republicans voted for Trump in 2020 than in 2016. The LP is just some out of work "consultants" who scammed money from liberals with the hope of getting back into the system if Trump was gone. No wonder they attracted creeps.

And they're not stopping until Hawley resigns, is expelled or flattened like a pancake.

The anger is intense over this one! Cruz is also on the list of targets.

Bombs away!
