Speaking of TP-USA, what’s triggering its leader Charlie Kirk, this week?
Chick Fil A betrayed us.
We stood by them for years during every attack and controversy
Despite this they announced they will no longer support Christian organizations
Even worse, it has come out they support the Southern Poverty Law Center!!
No more Chick-Fil-A, ever!

He also told me he would say Merry Christmas to his tech support customers because he imagined it would piss them off.

The unexected loss of Maharashtra was a rude shock to the BJP, coming as it did after the loss of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh to the Congress in December 2018. The party’s hold over Haryana weakened recently and it runs a fragile government in Karnataka. In the coming weeks and months, its popularity will be put to test once again when Jharkhand, Delhi and Bihar go to the polls.

Altogether the 3 parties have 162 MLAs (members of the legislative assembly). Basically BJP’s high handedness cost them Maharashtra.
