    I hate the idiots in charge of this country.

    Does anyone living in a sane country wanna do a greencard marriage thing? I’m a good cook, enjoy keeping my space clean, and am a fairly experienced flatterer, if that sweetens the pot any.

    …pretty please? :(

      Anyone want to do that for me too? I might be disabled but I am very funny, I can do pixel art so I can make stuff for you, I have good style and can help you dress well, I can sew so I can mend your clothes! You can also have all my steam games!

      Please get me out of here :(

    Will probably be a MAGA coin that isn’t even legal tender so Trump can fleece his followers even more.

      It’ll cost as much as a gold coin but will be made out of zink.

    Misleading title, they’d be coins:

    The bill calls on the U.S. Treasury to print 400,000 silver dollar coins with Kirk’s face on them, Republican Representatives August Pfluger of Texas and Abraham Hamadeh of Arizona told Fox News. In addition to Kirk’s image, the coins would include the message, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” They would be minted with the year 2026 and his full name on them, according to Fox News Digital.

    Also “Well done, good and faithful servant.” is absolutely nauseating.

      I assume it’s just a Charlie Kirk commemorative coin?

        Pfluger said that “this commemorative coin will make Charlie the youngest American ever immortalized on legal U.S. currency, a fitting honor that cements his extraordinary legacy alongside presidents and founding fathers who shaped our republic.”

        It would seem so.
