Bethany Mandel, the controversial right-wing pundit, home-schooling advocate, and prolific social media poster, is running for county school board — as a Democrat.
Though the school board race in deep-blue Montgomery County, Maryland, is technically nonpartisan, Mandel’s campaign published a graphic on Tuesday listing her as a Democrat. The move quickly raised eyebrows online, and prompted a community note on X (formerly Twitter) stating, “Bethany Mandel has identified as a Republican numerous times on her personal Twitter account.”
…
Those who know Mandel recognize her for writing molten-hot takes and far-right political commentary. The most infamous was a column, published in the wake of the violent white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, titled “We Need to Start Befriending Neo Nazis.” (Mandel is Jewish.) Her content can be cringey, like her column defending Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ wife: “If Casey DeSantis is a Karen, she’s our Karen.” She’s posted dehumanizing rhetoric, too. “Not nuking these fucking animals is the only restraint I expect and that’s only because the cloud would hurt Israelis,” she’s written about Palestinians.
Homey this is America in the 21st century. Hamburgers have political parties.
My previous favorite hamburger is 2 faced. In my state they have no mask restrictions, in other states they operate in they prohibit masks under any condition. Now I spend a bit (4x as much as I used to spend, 2x as much as current prices) more at a local place, and my burger looks like one you’d see in an advertisement, every time.
Name and shame.
I’m surprised, disappointed, that it was swept under the rug that well, but I guess “food company commits to spreading the next virus as much as possible” is a relatively mild headline in the modern day.

“We are introducing new mask guidelines that emphasizes the importance of customer service and the ability to show our associates’ smiles and other facial features while considering the health and well-being of all individuals,”

Jesus. Not like I’m worried about getting COVID from food but wtf is that stance? That’s the worst logic I’ve read in s while. We care about health and safety but we’re not going to wear anything that’ll actually do that because we want talk to see our face. But trust us, no disease here to spread.
Fucking braindead.
I was quite a fan of their burgers (for fast food), I could ignore the Bible verse # printed on the bottom of their cups, but, and I’m not sure if I blame religion ignorance or greed (though the first preys on the latter) but the result is, even in California, I’m not going to give them another dime.
Hamburgers, probably. Chicken sandwiches we know do
I’d vote for anyone running on the buffalo or Nashville hot platforms.
Sorry, all the candidates are running on the Chick Fil A platform
