White House Wants Big Balls to Get Same Medal as Rosa Parks

The move would appeal to Trump’s MAGA base.

What the actual fuck.

    Getting a medal for being a victim of a crime is… dumb. I was a victim of theft, hit and run, stalking, assault, and more. Where is my medal?

    Don’t know who he is supposed to be, but if you think your balls are big enough that you feel the need to use them as your online handle: please get the boys checked for testicular cancer.

    Todays episode of USA is wild:

    Two weeks after 19-year-old Edward Coristine was viciously assaulted during a carjacking in Washington D.C., the White House says it would consider giving the administration official a Presidential Medal of Freedom for his bravery.

    A 15-year-old girl and 15-year-old boy were subsequently arrested and remain in juvenile jail as the investigation continues.

    Nice plot twist by the writers 10/10. Excited for the next episodes of the series.

      The real horror is that we’re never going back to a non-spectacle government or media state.

      This is how it will be forever until something radically changes the world or we all collectively move onto other interests and stop clicking on these stories.

    I don’t believe this story for one second.

    Also that picture is designed to get a reaction. All that blood is from his nose. Not like they cut him up.

    He was as probably talking shit and a child punched him.

      I would love to hear the teenagers’ side of the story here.

      Big Balls claims he was just out with his girlfriend at 3 in the morning when a group of teens tried to car jack him. Police take a photo of Big Balls with a broken nose and covered in his own blood, and then arrest 2 teenagers.

      Suspiciously, there is not a single piece of evidence this shit actually happened outside of that one photo of an idiot covered in his own blood. I have not been able to find security camera or body cam footage of the alleged attack or any groups of teens fleeing the cops.

      Apparently the teens beat him up and then just waited for the cops to show up? How does that make sense?

      An alternative scenario is that a privileged nepo baby was out with a girl, some teens saw him and said “holy shit it’s big balls” went up to talk to a living meme, startled the sheltered lil baby, and he started a fight he couldn’t win, then called the cops after he realized his big balls were just a name he made up on the internet.

        The story changed since the first it was reported. The news said it was a group of 10 teenagers who were trying to carjack him. Then as soon as someone with more than two functioning brain cells thought to ask the logical question about how 10 teens were going to clown car their way into a vehicle to go joyriding, the story changed to a group of teens who wanted to rape his girlfriend and he pushed her into the car to protect her.

        I don’t believe any of this horseshit. The dude calls himself Big Balls, so you know he’s a caustic little shit who probably talks a big game but can’t back it up when people get physical with him IRL. Wouldn’t be surprised if he picked the fight and the photo of him with a nosebleed was used as a propaganda photo op, complete with a fabricated story about a “group” of criminal teenagers who assaulted him.

          Yeah, all so Drumpf can deploy his army to “control” the city with ACTUAL crime rates at an all time low! It’s all a ploy from Drumpf to show his dictator side and fabricating this story. Funny how he’s trying deploy NG to cities “with crime” yet most cities with the crime rates rising are RED cities and none are getting deployed there… we are in a fascist country and if you don’t believe it, read “Project 2025” where it’s almost 48% complete but remember “Drumpf didn’t even know the author”… 🤦🏽‍♀️

    We need a sandbox thing like browsers have but for RL events like these that the current administration dreams up so we can keep them isolated from our actual archives
