Naw, it's a 'Your Vote, Your Choice' moment encouraging women to vote for Harris even if they aren't 'allowed' to by controlling shit-weasel family because no one needs to know what you check in the privacy of the booth. 

I grew up in a family like that. My mom wasn't allowed to vote for anyone different from what asshole voted for because he was the one that was 'allowing' her time out of the home to vote and they would go together so he could watch. I wouldn't be surprised if my little sister is in the same sort of situation now since she seems to be hell-bent on following the same stupid abusive path.

I was confused as to what world it would be a good idea on Trump's side, but it immediately made sense for Harris.

You get the drill. Every higher quality poll from Pennsylvania released today is like Harris +2.

For it to be a Dumpster thing would require them to have even a modicum of self-awareness that yes, they are trash and people should be ashamed to vote for them.

I'm not sure how many people I'm allowed to bring, a trip to Utah for some fake marriages may have to happen as well; Due my heritage, I can move to a mountain town in Italy for free.

The only requirements are you must all live at least 6 house away from me. You may have balconies and porches that face my front garden so you can all admire the creatures that eat the shit out of it, but do not have any views of my backyard. I will be doing Karate back there 12/6, like a boss. If you look, One of you will get horny and start a war. it's guaranteed to happen (looking at you @Raptorpat)

That's a market predicting he's going to lose bigly.

Suddenly the claim that Trump is miming giving two hand jobs with his dance seems more plausible.

The last time Republicans won the popular vote was in 2004 with George Bush. Before that was his father in 1988. In other words in a span of 36 years, Republicans have won the popular vote only once . . . and they will definitely lose it again this election, whether or not Trump wins the electoral college. What a shitty system we have in place.

This may wind up being a gift to the GOP on the even of the election. First off, fuck the government for doing this. Peanut was harmless, and was actually a great outlet to help raise money to rescue other animals. This whole "rabies" crap is just that, total crap.

It also shows exactly how dangerous the government truly is. At the swipe of a pen some bureaucrat decided that a squirrel needed to be sized and killed. Cops raided the guys house and sized Peanut, and his buddy Fred.

Fight crime? Nah. Deal with Drugs? Nah. Some guy has a squirrel and raccoon and uses their antics to help raise money for animal rescue? Absolutely unforgivable, send in the stasi.

There is a lot of talk about Third Rails in politics, and animals are quite likely the single biggest third rail we have. People argue over all sorts of different positions, including on third rail issues like social security, healthcare, and government benefits. But absolutely everyone agrees, do not fuck with animals.

There truly is a lot of fury online right now over this. Its amazing how quickly this has spread, and just how truly pissed off people are.

Trump is already campaigning on this issue, and so are other Republicans.

Musks timeline is also full of this, which means that nearly every X user in America is currently being exposed to this story.

I can't take you seriously anymore.

Cats and dogs are one thing, but squirrels and raccoons are fucking rodents and pests.

If you think a squirrel is bad, wait until you hear what the government under Trump will do with women’s health choices.

Is this MAGA's hail mary? In that case, it's fucking over lol

So what was “The October Surprise”?

I think it was the dock strike that ended up being a nothingburger (other than panicked toilet paper buying).

Do you guys have more insight?

Oh so MD was telling us their strategy…

A squirrel.

I read this wasn’t an actual press release but I don’t blame any media for being fooled it 200% sounds like something he’d say and do.  Would be like Trump to champion states rights only to trample on them when he thinks it could benefit him.

It still has nothing to do with the election because it’s city and state business. Trump couldn’t do anything about it even if he wins. 
 

nyc has strict rules about what can and can’t be kept as pets. They probably had zero permits to have wild animals but they still exploited them on the internet. Someone or many someones complained about them having a squirrel and raccoon as a pet.  

[Raptorpat]

after I saw this I had to look because it was so stupid - it was a joint action between DEC and the Chemung County Sheriff - aka like the reddest of red on the southern tier above PA

those darn republican sheriffs, having to enforce state environmental conservation law after getting complaints of a potential violation

 

THIS WILL BE THE OPCTOBER SUPRISE THAT REVERSES FORTUNES

[Raptorpat]

I'm not saying that it wasn't a dumb series of events that led to a dumb outcome, but it's a state agency and local law enforcement enforcing a law they are obligated to enforce. And to say "people are pissed, this could be an election eve gift" just kind of goes to show how fragmented the internet really is, even on mass sites like twitter.

I would guess they got the equivalent of "swatted"

except in this case, it was technically illegal

[cyberbully]

Oh wow, so there's a section of people who brazenly break a law and are aghast when someone snitches and they suddenly don't understand how laws work.

I'm more pissed that Longo exploited this animal to its death.

It was terrible that they put the animals down instead of sending them to a sanctuary or rehab but any voter changing their mind because of it would be ridiculous especially since it wasn’t in some democrat stronghold

So much this. 
the couple was arrogant to think laws didn’t apply to them or to think everyone would think it’s adorable to keep a raccoon and squirrel as a pet. 
 

If the couple really gaf they would have gotten whatever was necessary to keep them or to not post them online for the world to see if the couldn’t do that

I don't understand the medical science but unfortunately rabies testing (which I assume was obligatory) requires dissecting the brain 

"good news, no rabies!"
