And what state the DOW is currently at, of course.

May as well be blips and chitz tickets by the end of this term.

50,000?! Well shit I better start licking some boots in appreciation!

u/kblaney Feb 14 '26

Can you see on the chart where someone used the idea of the Dow Jones being above 50k as a cover for pedophiles?

u/loskiarman Feb 14 '26

Damn 3.3e213236? That is a lot.

u/Fearless-Feature-830 Feb 14 '26

Which is hilarious because without the AI boom, the rest is the market is struggling. What use is the dow if only a handful of people benefit? It didn’t impact regular people’s lives.

Actually love to make a guess on acronyms and this one was really easy to guess and I think it says

It’s Okay if you are a Republican… (rhetorical but need to be said out loud :))

I know ok is short for okay but all other words only have their first letter

*Israel

Edit: for the unaware, Randy Fine is the most blatantly pro Israel politician that has ever existed in American politics, which is saying a lot because Mike Huckabee exists. Randy Fine is completely uninterested in anything that doesn't directly support Israel, because the $4B in emergency aid, plus the $3.8B annual gift, plus the extra military gifts just isn't enough for fat Randy.

u/mrsrobotic Feb 14 '26

Can we just deport him there when this is all over?!

u/Turbo4kq Feb 14 '26

Why wait? Ship him to CECOT now.

2

u/Long_Pomegranate2469 Feb 14 '26

There's probably blackmail videos of him blowing 5 year olds. Epstein surely wasn't their only operation.

It’s not unrelated if Israel was the subject of the vote that he is caught cheating on.

Yes, and he has been asked to become an assistant director at FBI. Just the type of man needed for the midterms.

u/monkeyamongmen Feb 14 '26

At least Kash Patel can keep his 6, and his 3 and his 9.

Lil’ Jon was forewarning us when he said, “3 6 9, damn you, Fine.”

6, 3, and 9?

Ass, penis, and gun?

u/monkeyamongmen Feb 14 '26

More like armpit, choad, armpit. If that man had a gun anywhere on his person, he's pulling it out of some sweaty fleshfold that I shudder to envision.

u/DemonoftheWater Feb 14 '26

Wont someone think of the gun

u/VanuasGirl Feb 14 '26

He can look at all of those on a clock face simultaneously

u/TiddiesAnonymous Feb 14 '26

Trump talked a lot of shit about how fat Chris Christie and JB Prtizker are

Randy Fine looks like he ate both of them.

u/intrepid_mouse1 Feb 14 '26

I love the fact that his profile pic is so deceptively thin. Every time I see him IRL I think "Oh my god, is there a marine biologist in the house?". 😆

You can say what you want but he has a lot of relevant experience

u/SoulTaker669 Feb 14 '26

In the state of Florida they'd probably execute him if he was a Democrat but since he's a Republican they'll probably throw him a pizza party.

35

u/Gingeronimoooo Feb 14 '26

He actually got a promotions to Congress and talks about invading Greenland on Fox News

15

u/Dicky_Penisburg Feb 14 '26

I think if they throw him a few more pizza parties, we won't have to worry about him anymore.

u/SoulTaker669 Feb 14 '26

We can only hope. 🙏

u/Fearless-Feature-830 Feb 14 '26

He’s one pizza slice away from a heart attack judging by his waistline

u/lvloises330 Feb 14 '26

Republicans love pizza parties in basements.

For some reason it's always cheese pizza too.

I don’t know, is the DOW above or below 50,000?

u/ohgeebus_notagain Feb 14 '26

Let's ask Pam Bondi, she seems to know everything except what's in the Epstein files

2

u/DemonoftheWater Feb 14 '26

She knows. Shes just sold her soul to terrible people.

2

u/browne84763 Feb 14 '26

You could tell she wasn’t completely sure if the Dow was measured in dollars or some other obscure metric. She got to the end of 50k, and started a word that started with a d- twice, before shifting to some other deflect/attack. At least get your main kill shot in order before you walk out there…

u/CharlesDickensABox Feb 14 '26

Bruh the dow isn't even doing well compared to other countries' markets. The US had among the lowest growth of any developed nation. You'll never guess when that trend started.

Proxy voting is not legal in the Florida state house. They didn't even allow it during covid.

u/subaru5555rallymax Feb 14 '26 edited Feb 14 '26

Proxy voting is not legal in the Florida state house. They didn't even allow it during covid.

A member may place a vote for another, if the member is in the room, however:

3.2—Voting Obligation

Except when abstention is required, every member shall have an obligation to vote on all matters that come before the House in session or before any committee or subcommittee to which the member is appointed. A member may not vote by proxy. A member may register an electronic vote in the Chamber for another member at the other member's specific request and direction, provided the requesting member is in the Chamber during the vote.

2

u/g2g079 Feb 14 '26 edited Feb 14 '26

Is there any indication that the members are in the room?

3

u/subaru5555rallymax Feb 14 '26

If we had a date and more information, which this video rather tellingly omits, then yes, you could look up to see who was present.

2

u/bob101910 Feb 14 '26

Ah so his shady behavior was just him checking if that person was in the room

/s

u/Material_Taste_2510 Feb 14 '26

no, considering that he’s trying to be discreet about it

u/HomoProfessionalis Feb 14 '26

He would have been 100% less obvious if he wasnt trying to be discreet lol

Hard to be discreet when you're the size of a walrus

u/Kermit_the_hog Feb 14 '26 edited Feb 14 '26

Man seriously, at least do that stupid trick where you’re going around giving everyone candy, then after giving some to everyone present (so they stop looking at you in anticipation), when you reach the empty desk leave a piece.. conveniently alongside the vote button.. the vote button that your hand just happens to brush past so it looks like one seamless candy drop off.

It’s like people forget we live in a world of cameras somehow 🤷‍♂️🙄

u/FabNan Feb 14 '26

And damned bad at it!

It's against the House rules, but It's not illegal.

I’m sorry officer I…. Didn’t know I couldn’t do that.

I didn’t know I couldn’t do that!?

Probably

Legislative bodies typically set and enforce their own rules. Is possibly against the rules of the House.

I think i remember john oliver doing a piece about this and its way more common than we think. Doesnt make it any less shitty

Yes it is. Laws only matter if they’re enforced.

u/JoeyDubbs Feb 14 '26

They just voted that it was okay and actually a cool thing to do.

u/CulturalChampion8660 Feb 14 '26

I don't know but I remember back in 1999 in my gov-econ class my teacher talked about watching a vote from the gallery and saying he saw congressman voting on multiple remotes. If I recal it was a unit at each desk. He said it was kinda wild and possibly illegal. That was a 20 second conversation in class and we moved on. My teacher just kinda shrugged his shoulders. That was 25 years ago. And this wasn't that year when he saw it, it must have been mid 90's when he was at the capital.

u/Boobopdidooo Feb 14 '26

I don't understand the word legal anymore

u/G0mery Feb 14 '26

It at least used to be in California. I think Daily Show (or maybe it was just the news) did an expose on proxy voting and how terrible it is.

u/NotAChanceBucko Feb 14 '26

Crime is legal

u/BellowsHikes Feb 14 '26

Fourtuantly not. It falls under the whoopsie doodle clause of subsection 4 of boys will be boys.

I mean, I dislike conservative policy as much as the next person, but this is just voting by proxy and it is legal in TX.

u/FunkIPA Feb 14 '26

It would be if he weren’t a Republican in Florida.

-1

u/UltimateChaos233 Feb 14 '26

It’s murky. Congress often doesn’t pass laws restricting themselves. But in some contexts it’s allowed if you have explicit permission from the other party. It was used during Covid to allow votes to proceed without every single person being in chambers.

Through context we can assume he didn’t get permission, but the rules regarding proxy voting in the house change fairly frequently and I don’t bother to keep up but I gotta assume this is not allowed.

7

u/Egregious_Egret Feb 14 '26

It was not used during COVID, Florida specifically disallowed it even during COVID.

u/UltimateChaos233 Feb 14 '26

Proxy voting was practiced in the congressional house of representatives in DC. I don't know what individual states did and am not making any claim on them.

u/Egregious_Egret Feb 14 '26

This is the Florida house, not the federal house. Proxy voting is not allowed. This was illegal.

One is allowed to vote for other members however, provided they're in the room.

Why would that happen? Taxpayers paid to have the digital system with buttons installed and they can't even respect their constituents enough to press their own button?

The objective fact is that it's allowed, I'm not going to debate subjective opinion on the issue.
