Wait...does the Girl Scout organization not secure legal clearance at all for its scouts to sell? Or is she just a complete moron?

Really not fair to the tarantula, who asked for none of this.
Tarantula are wildly intelligent. Like, smart dog intelligent.
Like, “sit”, “stay”, and “fetch me a cigarette”?! I want video of this

Simonetti, a local real estate businesswoman who runs a house-buying firm
Jfc this article just gets worse and worse
AI slop thumbnail though
Showed the headline to a friend and asked him what he thought she did for a living.
'Realtor' was his first guess.
She's even worse than that, she's a professional parasite. She runs a "home buying firm," which means she routinely fucks people out of an average of $50,000 per transaction. To accomplish this, she uses media (TV, billboards, print, social) to convince homeowners of a lie (they will make the same if not more money using homebuyer services than using the conventional real estate process) by telling them a truth (the transaction will be fast and they will have money in their hands in just a few days).
It's an amazing feat of leveraging human desire to absolutely fuck the dogshit out of them: they willingly believe the lie because they want the money in their hands quickly and in so doing, they get fucked out of five figures.

Wow, attacking girl scouts AND THEN POSTING THE VIDEO YOURSELF. Completely lost the plot.
Her candidacy has drawn further attention after a video she posted of herself confronting a Girl Scout and the child's mother over selling cookies without a permit went viral, putting her own conduct under public scrutiny.
The tarantula thing wasn't enough?
Glad to read that this was a Senate "Candidate" and not a "Senator", though there are more than a few who are just as jackassed.
Feel kinda bad for the tarantula though.
I watched some of the video and It kind of looks like the tarantula is picked up and put back in a terrarium by one of the officers. hope it wasn't injured.

Oh, yeah, she's in lockstep with the community on this one. Hatred of Girls Scouts crosses all lines, we can all agree on this.
