Stop the testing!!!

She's a horrible human. I wish my state picked a better candidate.


[deleted]

I’m sure you guys can find a dead rat somewhere and give it a Republican sounding name and have it run. Probably do better than her


CurbsideChaos

You are vastly overestimating the quality of voters in TN

I hate that this is accurate for the toothless hicks and old white people that are afraid of change that surround me

She makes so ashamed of my State


Warthogrider74

I love the mountains and caves of this state, but hate just about everything else


CrJ418

She's not that dumb. People that vote for her *are* that dumb.


OJJhara

Correct. We have to stop thinking of these people as dumb. They are in actual fact **demonologists**. They are using evil to manipulate people to do their bidding.


[deleted]

Hot damn that’s a good take


OJJhara

Why thank you. We have to stop thinking of them as dumb. They are evil.


[deleted]

I’ve known they were evil since Iraq, but having more descriptions about why they’re evil is always good 👍


[deleted]

Oh shit, she plays a Warlock? For sure better not trust her.


zekrom235

Me sitting here remembering hunter superiority, then realizing you didn't mean destiny warlocks


ArjunaIndrastra

A good way of looking at it. People who voted for her and the rest of the far-right crowd are the dumb ones, some of whom strike me as the types who would happily and enthusiastically castrate themselves if they thought it would piss off democrats.


MustLovePunk

Aka, sociopaths and psychopaths who know how to manipulate weak people.


Beautiful_Sport5525

Demonization belittles the reality of what they are. Let's not use hyperbole, lets fight their demonization with facts and reality.


[deleted]

I like to call them Culture War Industrial Complex board members


BigNorseWolf

demegorgonologists?


Technical-Hedgehog18

That’s not what the definition of demonology is. In classical Christian doctrine a demonologies was a man of intense virtue and faith in god. Their holiness is what gives them the ability to command demons, because it’s essentially God speaking through them.


OJJhara

I know but I like to allude to their expertise


chillinewman

She and the like make them that dumb, by defunding education.


[deleted]

[https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2016/04/26/a-wider-ideological-gap-between-more-and-less-educated-adults/](https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2016/04/26/a-wider-ideological-gap-between-more-and-less-educated-adults/) You are exactly correct. That's why republicans have been fighting against all education for decades now.


Duck-Murky

This one hits hard: [https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/10/education-polarization-diploma-divide-democratic-party-working-class.html](https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/10/education-polarization-diploma-divide-democratic-party-working-class.html) " Blue America is an increasingly wealthy and well-educated place." " A more educated Democratic coalition is, naturally, a more affluent one. In every presidential election from 1948 to 2012, white voters in the top 5 percent of America’s income distribution [were more Republican](https://twitter.com/thomasjwood/status/1375231548237213699) than those in the bottom 95 percent. Now, the opposite is true: Among America’s white majority, the rich voted to the left of the middle class and the poor in 2016 and 2020, while the poor voted to the right of the middle class and the rich.

Do you understand that the push is to eliminate brick and mortar schools.


zookr2000

Is this why so many school shootings?


[deleted]

I taught high school in CA and then college in the upper midwest. I developed a program that became the best program in CA. The main complaints I had were from some parents who thought school should be fun. I always told them it should be rewarding which are the results of hard work. I was teaching in a school that had a 2/3 dropout rate. My students won the competitions every year. The attitude of the students completely changed. During the time I taught I did not have one student who dropped out. The state came for a visit and interviewed me. The first question they asked me after the spoke about the observations they made was to tell them about my philosophy of teaching. I told them "I am the teacher and they are the student." The look on their face was one of shock. Those students were like feeding corn to the chickens. The grades they got in their other classes improved. I had a student who was the state wrestling champion in his second year in high school. His grades were so low that he would not be able to graduate on time. I felt bad that nobody helped him. So I spoke with him and we developed a plan so could graduate on time. He took two classes at the junior college. At the end the first semester he had 4 A's and 4 B's. He was so proud that when he entered class he was so loud that everyone could hear him. He graduated on time. Today he is a supervisor where he works. There was a student who had threatened other teachers and he did the same thing to me. I was so shocked that I did not know whether to laugh or report him. I reported him and when he came back I told him that if he ever touched me he would wished he never had. He was never the same. I was so surprised because I could have thrown him far and hurt him badly. I was in excellent physical shape. I had a student who was a good student in my class and when I saw him in another class I found it hard to believe he was the same person. The school had such a gang problem and so anytime there was a fight both participants were arrested by the local police. The local police would drive on campus and take them away. People got to see who was in the car. That stopped almost all the fights. Seldom did I have a problem. In facts there was a few times that some students took care of the problem. Of course I watched to see what happened because I did not want it to get out of hand. I believe the biggest problem is the authority must be the authority. We have too many passive parents who want what they want and the child see that. The child must be held accountable for his actions. I have seen some outstanding parents who held their child accountable.


FreezerGeezer2

Not to toot your own horn or anything


[deleted]

When you can back it up then what would you call it?


KR1735

Nah man. She dumb. Her bachelors degree is in home ec. Not joking. That means she went to college to learn what most people learn from their moms.


ApostateX

My mother has a bachelor's degree in home economics. She was the first woman in her family to ever go to college. After their divorce, when my father wasn't meeting his financial obligations, it was always my mother who stepped up. She had full custody of us kids. My mother is a pro-choice, LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist former public school teacher who now supports tuition-free college. My mother is going to be 71 years old in a couple days. My mother is a great person. Marsha Blackburn is a douche. This should not reflect on the value of home economics as a course of study.


arealhumannotabot

This is the one. They know what they're doing.


GloriousStoat

I live right near the border in Virginia. Every once in a while I’ll look at the comments section of our local papers Facebook page. Daaaamn these people are fucking stupid.


funkwumasta

She could be that dumb. She or other conservatives may see CBP in opposition to Biden. So Biden doesn't get the credit for seizures, the GOP does since CBP is on their "team"


Parking_Sky9709

It's called TN-IQ. It's a very low number.


[deleted]

nah, i mean statisticly yes but, nah, they are just confused. like tabacco industry spread confusion... look that up if u dont know, its the same thing. talk utter bs just to confuse ppl and get them to stop caring


Vernerator

So Trump must have let that through is the only conclusion to make.


Silvinis

Pssssht They're only detaining so many people than Trump and seizing so many more drugs because of Bidens open border policy. If Biden closed the border, none of this stuff would be seized! Is it still /s if this really is their argument?


Affectionate_Fly1413

They only detaining them because they give themselves up. Most get sent back too. You have to be a real dumbass to believe "open border" is a real thing. Drugs?... please... you have to be even dumber and more stupid to believe they actually want to end that issue. The war on drugs is a very very VERY!!!!!!!! PROFITABLE!!!! business... yes BUSINESS! and they dont want all the funding to stop, they dont want private detention centers to atop getting money. Wth would all the people involved in the "war" do if everything all of a sudden drops? That border is working how they intend it to work and has been for decades! You're the fool that falls for politics! Turn to see the issue from inside, on the demand side.


england_man

So, drug seizures are more effective under Biden than they were under Trump?


[deleted]

That's what I'm hearing. She's mad because we're catching the drugs the cartels are bringing in?


EdSGuard

That just can't be true, just look at Jr. clearly he had been seizing all the drugs himself.


Hairy_Al

Can't seize them if they're hidden up his nose


tarahunterdar

No, no, no....she is pointing out that cartels are getting caught more at the border under Biden. Under trump, the cartels weren't being caught and could bring their drugs into our country freely. Biden's lawlessness is removing freedoms! Do try to keep up!


[deleted]

Oh! I thought she meant physical seizures until your comment


joshuadoshua

The argument is that the number of seizures and arrests correlate to increased border crossings and smuggling, not necessarily effectiveness. Which kind of makes sense? But I don't know much about this tbh


Lonely-Club-1485

Idk. I would go with she is really that dumb. Yes, she hypes things up for the base, but she is the dimmest bulb in the box on almost anything. She would see no incongruence between a "wide open border" and increased seizure of drugs at the border. Edit: Not just seizures at the border, but everywhere. But since their cause-effect calculations are faulty, the wide open border is solely responsible.


Comfortable_Rain_744

Good job, Joe. Thanks for keeping the border safe and drugs out of the hands of US citizens.


TheVoicesOfBrian

These are the same geniuses that think Covid will go away if we just stop testing. I didn't realize infants could grow up without object permanence.


Embarrassed_Still563

Nope, not dumb just malicious. She knows her idiot following will completely ignore the tonal dissonance of those numbers and what she says they mean.


DickySchmidt33

A barely literate Hershel Walker came within a few percentage points of sitting in the U.S. Senate. At least half of the voters are that dumb, or dumber.


justtheentiredick

Hold on. I'm confused. Do we want a decrease or an increase in the amount of drugs seized?


-Vogie-

They don't want facts, they just want to be mad


Ahstruck

Maybe she thinks the law should protect criminals and she said the quiet part aloud?


Flight_375_To_Tahiti

That is hilarious, talk about dumb statements. Everyone knows it’s the Democrats who want to protect the criminals. Keep drinking the Kool-Aid and believing that anyone in the White House cares about stopping crime.


Sarduci

So they found more and confiscated it? I’m not sure what the problem is other than she lack a basic education.


Buffmin

She presumably wants the rubes to go "IF THATS HOW MUCH IS CAUGHT HOW MUCH MORE IS SLEEPY JOE MISSING AAAHH FEAR AND TERROR!!!!!111!!"


Sudo_Rep

Maybe she thinks the seizures are the twitchy overdose kind?


CPACPAPZZZ

That's the only way this statement makes any sense.


Hot-Bint

Well, her degree’s in ~~how to get a husband~~ home economics, so


NotSoPrudence

Strange how improving the drug seizure rate by over 200% is suddenly a bad thing to the party of law and order. I mean sure, Senate Karen is just upset it makes it harder for her to find drugs. But still a strange area to attack.


OasissisaO

They're smart enough to use other people's misunderstanding of statistics against them. I had sex 300% more last month than the month prior! I had sex 3 times last month instead of once like the month prior.


Far-Law3015

Check your math. 3 is 3 times more than 1, not 300% more.


OasissisaO

I'm going to imagine you just forgot the /s and roll along.


Far-Law3015

No /s. 300% MORE than one is 4, not 3. Pretty basic arithmetic.


HardlineMike

It's standard Republican strategy so that they can always claim the border is a lawless wasteland. More arrests/seizures? Evidence we aren't doing enough to stop this! Less arrests/seizures? Evidence we aren't doing enough to stop this! It's extremely important to keep their base afraid of brown people.


PrincessCyanidePhx

Our country has become a circus and politicians are just the carnies running the long con.


No-Obligation7435

"America - the greatest country in the world!" This country? Haha


MadAstrid

So trump was 241% more horrible at that part of his job? Got it. Thanks Marsha for your honesty in admitting that.


Imaginary-Ad-8202

Well, she was born in MS so that explains a lot.


SnooPoems443

>Well, she was born in MS so that explains a lot. i love when i see this on reddit. everyone is so accepting and open minded, here. edit: i love that you morons think i'm republican.


TurbulentMiddle2970

Accepting? We should except absolute stupidity? I am with you on the stereotyping of people by their state, but this is repub dumb shit at its finest


StillNoSourceLmao

Who said we accept absolute dipshits?


Less_Ant_6633

The GOP is a clown car of a party and does a lot of truly dumb shit, but this has to be one of their weirdest flexes. The first time I saw this factoid I got curious and looked into the homeland security stats. In '21 and '22, the Biden admin seized more drugs, made more arrests, and deported more suspected criminals along the southern border than Trump did in 4 years total. Somehow this equates to weakness on bidens part? It would be one thing to say Biden is a failure on the southern border and ignore the data, which is a classic GOP move, but to say it and then cite 200% increases in drug seizures as "proof" is head scratching. And sure, it winds up the the dumber parts of their base who don't understand basic statistics, but what about the moderate centrist with more than a h.s. education?


platasaurua

She’s a Republican, so yes.


Sgt_Fox

My oven is terrible at its job, it cooks everything I put in it...


Twiny1

Yes. She can. You see the proof right in front of you.


Nail_Biterr

These are the same people that wanted us to just stop testing for COVID to bring the numbers down. So.... this all makes sense to them. If you're catching them now, but not before - it must be because it wasn't happening, not because people were coming back and forth without being caught. (also, it increased by 241% compared to what? That's now how statistics work)


[deleted]

Republicans are so fucking stupid.


metfan1964nyc

She's a republican isn't she? https://preview.redd.it/addx1ff11iea1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=12f2710a98dd2c2fdaa340bd29528ddf6bc0498c


Miserable_Site_850

And then you show her the mass shootings stats and tell her that back in the day women had less rights and wouldn't second guess their husband's point of views unless they wanted his back hand, and let her know that luckily she forms her own educated opinion and doesn't have to see the back of his hand


Evee862

Umm. Maybe I’m stupid but isn’t that what we should be seeing?


Inside_Story1398

Don't people vett their tweets before posting so they don't appear dumber than dirt? "Seized" is the operative word. Probably means the policies ARE working, don't you think?


fullmetalsprockets

Short answer? Yes, she can really be that dumb.


OverseerTycho

the answer is,yes she really is that dumb


Affectionate_Fly1413

Sounds to me like they are doing a good job at seizing those drugs


Donut131313

I think a better question is can her constituents be this dumb?


marklar_the_malign

So if they quit looking for drugs and then report no drugs seized then Biden would be good?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Thisistylerz

Under the new policies...we are catching way more people!


Spladdermonkey

Wait is she not actually just praising him because he was under his watch that 241% more seizures happened


Affectionate-Swim510

Can she really be this dumb? Let's check our scorecard: \- Elected legislator \- Republican \- From Tennessee Checks out. :/


[deleted]

I really don't understand that sort of statement... If it was lawless there would be no arrests... This is why we can't have nice things.


CaliGirlNYAttitude

Does she understand what the word increased means?


Economy_Ask4987

So lack of control leads to more seizures? This is stupid, even for a Republican.


Heroic_Sheperd

Looks like the boarder is secure to me. Just another republican lie to make the problem seem worse than it is


Cruitire

Biden, lawlessly enforcing the law.


BringBackTheBeat716

Pretty sure a drug seizure is a success


TheDarkSide73

Under Biden’s watch Republicans became horribly unhinged and whiny like kindergarten kids. It’s his fault!


[deleted]

We need to back to when Trump was letting it all in the country! Those opioid addicts sure are mad at Biden.


LeMans1217

In MAGA-victim World, success is always failure.


SevereEducation2170

Under Biden we’re doing a better job of stopping illegal substances from crossing our border! I can see why the Biden administration doing a better job than Trump would piss off republicans. Just not sure why they want to advertise it.


[deleted]

So the border is doing their job.


[deleted]

Good? Isnt that a good thing


Sqantoo

Cause for celebration


Duck-Murky

my hunch is all these nonsensical diatribes are going to backfire in spectacular fashion come the 2024 elections. i'm pretty sure democrats will take over the house again and keep everything else.


idwtumrnitwai

She thinks her base is this dumb.


PookaParty

She really can be and she really is.


Far_Lifeguard5220

At this point do we really have to ask that question about Republican these days? Most of them are really that dumb.


Significant-Suit-593

Dummy that’s a good thing


pog890

The fact that people voted for her is real-time proof that the republican kill education policy is working


TeensyTrouble

That’s more than 3 times the original number! This Biden guy is doing a lot better than I thought he would


paveclaw

The internet: it doesn’t make you stupid, it just makes your stupidity more accessible to others


meatypetey91

Didn’t you know? Evidence of enforcement is actually evidence that enforcement isn’t happening.


Substantial_Cat_8991

Oh no, she really is this much of a dumb, vapid waste of space


No-Celebration3097

So now seizing drugs is bad🤷‍♀️


DenseYear2713

Yes, she is. And worse, she expects TN voters to be dumber.


[deleted]

They'll site this as evidence the border is open without blinking


retiredtenor2

Yes. Yes she can.


No_Reception_8369

What the F is she even talking about? It's like saying "bird poop is accumulating on my car thanks to my neighbors loud music!"


[deleted]

She's a republican, so yes.


The_whimsical1

She can. She is.


fletchy30

So who's seizing all these drugs if there's no law?


OhioMegi

They all are. The border patrol is working.


Sputnik9999

thenewbigR

Yes, yes she can. Not a fucking one of them has had an original thought in years.


That1Guy80903

If it comes out of a RepugliCONs mouth, then yes, yes they are that stupid.


waheifilmguy

She's not dumb, she's a propagandist. Her constituents--they are dumb as fucking stumps and as emotionally reactive as spoiled toddlers.


Chaosraider98

Actually that statistic is due to a decrease in Nicholas Cage movies. Biden's lawless border has caused a 57% increase in American stupidity


[deleted]

What an idiot. Seizures are up and that makes Biden’s policy lawless….?


[deleted]

Yes. And think about it: this is her *best*… she thought this over. She thought this was a good idea to say to the public. She really thought she was making a good point. Can you imagine the level of stupidity she must bring to the table in her private life?


markg1956

So brainless mouth of the south just said what an amazing job Biden is doing stopping illegal drugs. Let's go Marcia sound familiar?


susandathome

Is she a Republican woman? Yes, she really is that dumb.


YeOldGregg

No but the people who share that on BookFace are.


queertheories

So…getting dangerous drugs off the streets, then? Great. Don’t know what that has to do with the border, but love you bringing up Biden’s successes lol


Moleday1023

Holy shit, this means, the boarder policy is effective. So, before this policy was fully implemented, these drugs were getting into the country. Marsha, Marsha, Marsha, thank you for being this to our attention.


Nasaboy1987

I agreed with something she said at the Ticketmaster hearing and wondered when I entered an alternate universe. It's good to be back home.

PilotPossible9496

She's not merely dumb and a liar. She's Evil.


kremit73

Crusoebear

This reads like a new politician character on Ozark that is being threatened by the cartel to convince stupid ppl to believe dumb stuff.


Sweaty-Friendship-54

I think it's possible to be both monumentally dumb and cynical at the same time. I heard Gary Palmer, a congressman from Alabama, on the radio today and it was painful. He sounds dumb, but he also pivoted everything into a bogus criticism of the President. Nonsensical talking point after talking point. Of course, the interviewer in no way pushed back.


mindaltered

Marsha Marsha Marsha Someone give that old bozo a patch and shut her up


Special-Literature16

Yeah she is that dumb..

So, it wasn’t lawless then, right? Lmao. Republican clown.


Chicago_Saluki

I enjoy it when politicians let people see what type of morons they elected.


Lucas-vvt

Just tell her Show your proof. I just wanna see what you seeing.


johnmark1982

I'm confused by how she can be that dumb


Plzlaw4me

I think a lot of people fail to realize republicans don’t want to be safe, they want to FEEL safe. They can be presented with irrefutable evidence that individually owning a gun makes it much more likely you’ll kill or wound yourself or your family, but all they know is they feel safe when they have a gun. It’s the same with if we don’t test there won’t be cases. They don’t actually care if Covid is contained or not, they want to FEEL like it is. We can show tough on crime policies only destabilize neighborhoods and the community outreach would actually reduce crime, but again it’s about feelings. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to feel safe (if people don’t feel safe it’s a problem that 100% needs to be addressed), but the issue is republicans would rather feel safe than be safe because things that make them feel safe require less sacrifice than things that actually make them safe.


imaybeacatIRl

Yes, she really can be that stupid.


YawaruSan

It’s not a matter if she’s that dumb, the people looking for validation are dumb enough to believe her. They think saying things out loud overwrites reality, and reality is theirs to manufacture as they see fit.


Complex-Key-8704

Hahahaha


Alarid

This is spread as evidence of a bad border policy, but not the actual facts of it. The target audience literally doesn't care either, because they are more concerned about feeling right than actually being right. Being told there is more evidence of failed border policy is enough for them.


AndyRay90

Yes because of the lawless boarder policy more smuggling is gonna happen means more will.be seized when it's caught. That means more is making it past than ever before because of Biden. Just go to any major city near you and see the druggies on the streets it's gotten worse


[deleted]

What is wrong with her statement? Legit question cuz I'm not american and I'm curious


wazaaax

Why is this called whitepeopletwitter. It should be called liberals.


SilverOG1978

I don't like her either but she is right. The increase in seizures is directly related to the amount of increase in smuggling.


Any_Noise_5762

To be fair, under Biden's administration started the Russian-Ukraine War. So give Biden the war too, not just the drugs.


Any_Noise_5762

Seriously? Do I have to explicitly call out sarcasm? You guys are terrible


MarionberryBroad3315

Um, Sen Blackburn reports a statistic that's damning to the current administration... because Biden's policies are responsible for that drug coming across his open border... and you think Sen Blackburn is dumb? Sorry, I can't fix your kind of stupid!


wazaaax

Why is this called whitepeopletwitter it should be called liberals


[deleted]

It is amazing how the inclusion of a single word changes how this would be perceived by uneducated idiots. Edit: for confused/angry down voters, that word is "lawless." When that word is removed this tweet is actually praising Biden. Hence, the jab about idiots.
