- Republican justices allowed this ban

shows why

This world needs a Surak.

Environmentalists who say the government should hold down fuel prices

Old Soviet joke: a man hands out pamphlets in the metro station, so the KGB pick him up. The interrogator looks through them and exclaims, “but these are all blank paper!”

The man shrugs. “What else could I write?”

The claim in the screenshotted tweet turns out to have not been true.

Something worth considering if you hear anyone making similar claims about similar candidates now.

Translation: “Kolkhoznik, guard your fields against the class enemies, and slackers plundering the socialist harvest.”

When someone blames a shortage on people you’ve never met but love to hate.
