Comment by Grinning Cat 10 hours ago: Photoshopping reveals the inner truth at a Women for Trump rally:

Of course, I can’t imagine “Women for Trump” without drawing parallels with “Chickens for Col. Sanders” or “Jews for Hitler” (Kapos were a thing) or “Slugs for Salt”:

Comment by Ruth Anthony-Gardner on July 1, 2020 at 11:08pm: “… a team of economists at Goldman Sachs estimated that a nationwide mask mandate would save the U.S. economy $1 trillion by reducing the need for widespread lockdowns.”

Comment by Grinning Cat on May 15, 2020 at 12:39pm: This week a conservative (now fully synonymous with “evil”) majority on the Wisconsin supreme court struck down the state’s stay-at-home order.

“The latest cheesehead”:

And on many restaurants and bars being allowed to reopen for dining in (to the delight of the powerful Tavern League; fortunately the ruling didn’t preempt stricter local rules):
