You may be right that she has no case for wrongful termination, but perhaps she has some receipts that prove otherwise. I guess we'll wait to find out. Can we at least agree to not characterize her tweets as hateful? She got banned from Twitter too, which was ridiculous.
I personally would almost never choose to ban somebody from Twitter/X unless they commit crimes or post really vile things like racism or threats of violence or whatever. Certainly Carano's tweets look tame compared to the cesspool that Musk's Twitter/X has become. There's no way she would get banned for those tweets today; she'd probably be rewarded for such behavior if anything.
So you're claiming that these are vile tweets and you could see how she got banned back then? I also believe that you are only saying that it's a cesspool now, because you are told to say that. I guess when Twitter had tons of child porn that Twitter didn't take down it was much better, because they took down Carano?

Guys, only in2 thinks for himself, everybody else just says what they are told to say.

You're something else, and that something else is an asshole. Congratulations.

Yeah, I've been called that before. This is a nice.

Btw, the talking point today is to say that the GOP House is in Chaos. Make sure you use the word "CHAOS" every time you can fit it in to describe the GOP and Republicans, and make sure that you blame it on Trump. These are the orders from the Party.

The Republican Party is in CHAOS and it is partly Trumps fault. I mostly blame people that enabled him like FOX who knows he’s a scumbag but want the ratings and politicians in Washington who know he’s a scumbag but are afraid to stand up to him because getting elected is much more important than right or wrong to them.

I mean, I agree with him. But I'm also not twelve-years-old and I wouldn't tweet that out. No matter what level of a company I worked for. But the owner? I guess when you get to that level of wealth, you can just say whatever you want and not worry about how that might affect those around you. Maybe he should give out a bonus to all of his women workers who would be willing to use the funds to get implants.

That's funny. I'm sure HR will have to write that into their benifits package.

Ha ha. Can you imagine?! And then the backlash would force to him to give out bonuses for penis enlargement. Talk about team culture!

Garrison Keillor, was the host of a long-running radio program called A Prairie Home Companion and he often referred to a fictional Minnesotan small town, Lake Wobegon, “where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average.”

Twitter could be the place "where all the women had big boobs and all the men were well-hung."

Just shows you no matter how much money you make, you can still be an ignorant son of a bitch.

Illegals can’t vote in Federal elections but can in some local elections.

The Lakewood church shooter, who is an illegal immigrant from El Salvador was found to have voting records and having voted in the 2020 election. It's probably just a coincidence.

Illegals are not officially allowed to vote. I did a search for this and didn’t find a single word mentioning her voting in any election. I found a crap load of info on the shooter. I didn’t know it was a girl. You don’t see women doing these things very often.

https://abcnews.go.com/US/suspected-lak ... =107179259
The past of Genesse Ivonne Moreno, the suspected Lakewood Church shooter, includes a turbulent marriage, a contentious divorce, allegations of child and spousal abuse, a checkered criminal record and a well-documented history of mental health issues

I would focus on how messed up she was, not that she voted, if she did. Until I see evidence that she voted I will assume Maga is making up more stuff.

She identified as Jeffrey Escalante.
