Illinois: The Fun, New Mexico
(Errant comma intentional)

Rep. Bailey says “Illinois, put the ILL in Illness.”

“The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. ” Maybe we can convince Mr DeVore to apply to practice law in New Mexico.

Thought bubble above girl in lower right corner:
“Dad’s chugging beer and driving the boat again. Where are those life jackets mom told us to wear when this happens?”

Have you ever noticed that they seem to not like sleeves too?

“Masks? We don’t need no stinkin’ masks.”

Maybe DeVore can move to New Mexico and become the Saul Goodman of their COVID-19 legal realm? /s

Illinois the State where everyone comes to get back at their Governor.
Just ask my brother Tom DeVore (he changed his name) and my Uncle Darren Bailey.

No Motto, but……1) we can’t see the second ‘s’ on his cap. 2) I’m surprised he forgot to raise his pinky finger, which is his trademark on the “Boozy Toosdey” boatdock. 3) the young ladies are wondering where this guy came from, hopping on the boat and repeatedly saying “Howdy, I’m da IRONMAN”…….

No brains, no mask, no problems.
Comment by Drake Mallard Tuesday, Aug 18, 20 @ 2:36 pm
No wonder he came here. His home county may have to start enforcing stay at home, distance, and mask orders.
Per his own paper late July:
The AG is taking the Lea County Sheriff’s Office and Sheriff Corey Helton to court to force the department to enforce the governor’s health orders concerning COVID-19. The filing points out sheriff deputies posted pictures of themselves eating indoor at local restaurants, in direct violation of the health orders on July 13.I

Side note: Grstapo? Sports editor? Of a newspaper?
Comment by Robert Montgomery Tuesday, Aug 18, 20 @ 2:42 pm
Beer, yes, masks, no.
Comment by Oswego Willy Tuesday, Aug 18, 20 @ 2:43 pm
It makes contact tracing so much easier when they post their whereabouts on social media.

Pretty sure Naperville has a “sister city” named Grstapo.
Or something like that per their Welcome signs.

Motto: We already have enough stupid here, go home.
A couple of follow up questions:
(A) How long ago was that ironman? /s
(B) Who is Paul and why is his name on your arm? (google wasn’t helpful)

When I first saw the tweet I thought it said Jason Plummer.
Comment by Bruce( no not him) Tuesday, Aug 18, 20 @ 4:24 pm
If you wander down the dark rabbit hole that is Mr. Farmer’s twitter page, you will find him bragging about recent extensive travels and not wearing a mask or quarantining, calling the governor of New Mexico a “witch” and calling for her removal “BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY” … “even if that means violent force”.
You will also find him touting his editor position at the newspaper that employs him, his membership in the College Football Writers Association, and his status as a voter for the collegiate Biletnikoff award.
