Fears of a global recession? It feels like we've already been in a recession non stop for 3.5 years.

Everyone has been miserable for the last 3.5 year. So for there to be fear of something worse to cause this, it's a really bad sign in my opinion.

It's because they are liars. And most people living in the real world know that. The only people who don't probably work in a field like the medical field were prices are fixed and people pretty much have to pay them no matter what.

'Stop electing stupid people': Rage as Marjorie Taylor Greene flunks American history test

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is in hot water for getting two out of eight people correct when listing individuals who signed the Declaration of Independence.

Greene, who earlier in the day was hit with a flurry of criticism for falsely claiming that Donald Trump won her state of Georgia in 2020, recently posted about the ages of those who signed the Declaration of Independence.

"The average age of the signers of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776 was 44 years old, but more than a dozen were 35 or younger: Thomas Jefferson: 33 John Hancock: 39 James Madison: 25 Alexander Hamilton: 21 James Monroe: 18 Aaron Burr: 20 Paul Revere: 41 George Washington: 44," the lawmaker wrote.

Greene was hit with a fact check from the social media site X, formerly known as Twitter.

"James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, James Monroe, Aaron Burr, Paul Revere, and George Washington were not signers of the Declaration of Independence," it states.

The site's users also chimed in to correct the representative.

@JoJoFromJerz wrote, "Ok — who else does moron Marge think signed the Declaration of Independence? Best answer wins a free peach tree dish. Go!"

Travis Akers wrote, "6 of these 8 men did not sign the Declaration of Independence."

@lisa_liberal responded, saying, "Keep in mind ladies and gentlemen. That Marjorie Taylor Greene is a U.S. Representative. Whose salary is paid for by taxpayers."

She then added, "STOP ELECTING STUPID PEOPLE."

Radicalize to do what, exactly?

Well, she lost her fucking primary. Maybe she didn't have as much support as she thought she did. I don't know why she has to act so cunty.
