Olive Garden requires photo ID for Never-Ending Pasta Pass
Show me where in the U.S. Constitution it details your right to fly on an airplane or get unlimited pasta at Olive Garden. I will wait.
Dear @nytimes.com, I was just at an Olive Garden on Saturday and did not need to show my ID for my pasta dish. Come find me at a diner and you can quote me for a story. Thanks,
The Seconds Amendment guarantees unlimited breadsticks
This is to keep the "photo ID" as the focus, and not the Proof of Citizenship. Why do Dems keep taking the bait?
IMO, Scalise has always been a f*ckn 🤮 idiot!
I get the feeling that none of the GOP leaders were very convincing speakers in high school at debate club.
Also their proposals are for more than a " any photo ID", if I understand the SAVE act?
Actually, the Constitution DOES allow freedom to travel, and that we've been demanding ID to fly violates it. It's a practice that needs to stop, not metastasize into violating even more constitutional rights.
It has been driving me insane that I haven’t seen any Democrats point this out. (I hope I’ve just missed it.)
Show me the Olive Garden that requires an ID. These MAGA con men are reaching for the most ridiculous examples (most are BS) to restrict voting by folks opposed to their authoritarian, bigoted and corrupt agenda.
I have never once been asked for ID in my many visits using an Olive Garden Pasta Pass.
Olive Garden is a circle of trust, when you are there, you are family. You wouldn’t ask for ID from family, would you?
These fuckheads excel at pissing on the feet of poorly educated people - who believe it is actually raining
maybe if you look like steve scalise you draw additional scrutiny
You can get pasta without a driver’s license but good luck getting any sauce or breadsticks
Once, at Olive Garden, when I asked for the 10th bowl of never ending pasta, they asked for my ID and requested I not return…
Is this some new weird talking point
Olive Garden's owners say that you do not have to show ID to get pasta at an Olive Garden. A guy who shits himself in public and struggles to pass basic cognitive tests says that you do. For busy restaurant-goers, it can be hard to know who to trust.
They require ID for the pasta cabonara, which is understandable as it contains pecorino romano, a controlled substance
Well, if you don't have to show ID at Olive Garden, then citizens will never get a table because all of the illegals will start going there!

Olive Garden isn't mentioned in our Constitution, so there's that.
OPINION | If I have to show my ID when buying alcohol, tobacco, and firearms, why not while voting?
Lord now I have to go search this bullshit.. I was wondering what all the Olive Garden posts were about 😂
Scalise: "Anybody that gets on an airplane has to show a picture ID to vote. Nowadays, if you want to go to Olive Garden and get unlimited pasta, you gotta show a picture ID. This isn't complicated stuff."
1. Flying is an optional travel choice 2. VOTING is a right
What is he talking about? We vote on airplanes now?
What fucking Olive Garden is he talking about? Is he talking about buying booze at the Olive Garden? They have to ask for ID by Law for Booze not for breadsticks
There are more frauds in Trump's government than there is voters fraud. This isn't difficult
Which of these is a constitutional right? Difficult question for republicans to answer.
Oh shit, I need picture ID for bread sticks at Olive Garden?
Enough with these bullshit comparisons. Does Olive Garden stop nearly 70 million women from eating pasta because their last name does not match their birth certificate? No. But the SAVE Act will make it harder for those women to vote. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-save-a...
Seeing lots of people respond to this by saying you don’t have a constitutional right to eat at Olive Garden and this may be controversial but I believe we do have that right and should exercise it
I feel like I always have to remind folks that Scalise actually described himself as David Duke without the baggage.
clever play, invoking the little-known unlimited pasta clause of the 8th amendment
Sees a silly pun on timeline. Forced fake smile. Scrolls for 20 minutes. Then sees the context. bsky.app/profile/atru...
I just flew home Friday. I ddn't get to vote on anything!
I hate it when I just want to catch my flight but the TSA pulls me aside to a voting both
The Olive Garden when I eat an extra bread stick.
Not as bad as Fazoli's. They require 2 referral letters from licensed mental health professionals and 12 continuous months of what they call "the real Fazoli's experience."
WTF is he yammering on about? I've certainly never been asked for ID in a restaurant.
We don’t have a constitutional right to unlimited pasta at Olive Garden. Hope that clears things up.
The whole comparison is dumb and inapplicable. We don’t need id to eat pasta. But also the SAVE Act would require id that many people don’t have or need for anything else (since most id does not meet the requirements). They’re just lying. Gishgallup all the way.
Also, they don’t card you at the pasta bar.
What’s a constitutional right, I’ve read about them but????
I thought that was guaranteed in the Magna Pasta
In my unlegal opinion, it's covered in the Preamble: "... promote the General Welfare". Nothing promotes the general welfare more than a second or third helping of pasta. In fact, it defines "the more perfect Union".
Though you know Jefferson would've tried to work that one in, had he thought of it. 🍝
You don't have to have intelligence experience to be Director of National Intelligence and you don't need a background check to work for ICE, but MAGA says we have to have photo ID to buy pasta at Olive Garden?
Another lie from the lying liars who lied like this: people.com/donald-trump...
You don't even need i.d. to take a seat on the senate! Just be a 'sister ' of a dead one.
Rules for thee-but not for me.
Their lights may be on but absolutely no one is home.
Hell, you don't even need to have intelligence to be Director of National Intelligence in the United States. You just have to be a Trump sycophant.
And you need no elective office experience to serve as SENATOR per the GOP, just be related to the deceased.
If you pay $100, Olive Garden gives you a pass with your name on it to let you have endless pasta for 13 weeks. They ask for ID so you don't let everyone use the pass. When you vote, no one else can vote as you. It's a stupid analogy, and now they're making it sound like you're carded for penne.
Wait, is this what they want, that if I pay $100, I'll be able to vote multiple times?
It's tragic that you have to clarify the Olive Garden policy that this dickhead is spouting off about. It's even more tragic that these buffoons know so few people will look this up for themselves. The disdain they have for their base is truly sad-sad because it's so blatant but also disregarded.
Furthermore, my Real ID works just fine for getting on a plane and for proving to Olive Garden that I am the one who is paying for the unlimited pasta. It also works almost everywhere else. Know where it doesn't work? Per the SAVE Act, it wouldn't work when I'm trying to vote.
Also air travel. It’s a business that makes its own policies. GOVERNMENT IS NOT A BUSINESS. IT IS A SERVICE FUNDED BY OUR TAXES! This idea that government should reflect private business is why our country is dying. Service doesn’t appease a limited group of shareholders. ALL VOTERS ARE EQUAL.
Did I miss the paragraph about “free and fair pasta” in the constitution??? These idiot GOP analogies.
To be fair, republican voters are *that* stupid
What fucking Olive Garden is he talking about? Is he talking about buying booze at the Olive Garden? They have to ask for ID by Law for Booze not for breadsticks
Olive Garden sold an "unlimited" Pasta Pass. The ID thing is just to prove you're the one who bought the pass. They tried to make the same argument about needing ID for Costco, until they were shut down that Costco is a membership you pay for.
People purchased that $100 unlimited pasta pass (good for 13 weeks.). They only sold 10K of them. People were letting other people use the pass (costing OG), so they are now requiring ID with the PASS. Only for the pass.
Pretty soon the Republicans will claim it’s communism to let people into Olive Garden without showing their IDs.
Clown show. There is nothing serious about any of them.
The better question is why the media lets them run with this fraudulent talking point.
Oh my god, my lasagna has never seen my face
Welcome to the Alfredo Revolution.
Where is Olive garden? Cowering somewhere? Trump donors? Why haven't they issued a statement to set the record straight, no photo ID is required for pasta? There are a lot of really stupid people out there that will believe Scalise.... It has to be hurting their business to allow the lies.
Gosh…just pure Bull Shit noise! Spaghetti hitting the Wall and falling off!
About that...you need $100 per person for a 'pasta pass' from Olive Garden. That buys you unlimited food & unlimited visits in a 13 week window. The name on the pass has to match your ID to make sure you aren't sharing the pass with anyone else. It was a limited promotion that is already sold out.
I got a gluten rash and constipation just from reading your post.
Obviously Scalise has a $100 per person pasta pass at Olive Garden. It’s been a long time since I’ve been to Olive Garden, but $100 worth of pasta for one person in 13 weeks seems extreme.
Thanks for that clarification. Now they really do look like dipshits with their coordinated messages.
I have ZERO interest in going to an Olive Garden to test this claim, but I’m pretty sure I could get “food, from a restaurant, without an ID”. I literally do it every day
Apparently they sell an unlimited pasta pass, which people would share if they didn’t verify identity. However voting is limited to one vote per registrant so sharing is not a thing.
It only makes sense if you understand how the “unlimited pasta pass” works. They stupidly don’t include a spot for a photo. So to prevent pasta pass sharing they require ID. I absolutely fucking HATE that I know this now. And now so should you.
What do you expect? We're talking about the cult whose leader claimed that you need ID to buy groceries, clearly demostrating that he's likely NEVER EVER done as simple and self-sufficient a thing as going grocery shopping for himself.
To be clear: what he's talking about is a limited-time "Pasta Pass" which Olive Garden sold allowing unlimited visits with unlimited pasta (& breadsticks) over a 3 month period, but which is nontransferrable. But there is no constitutional right to Fettuccine Alfredo. www.abc27.com/national/oli...
no constitutional right to pasta?
If we go the route of a constitutional convention, let’s put it on the list.
If Ben Franklin had written the Constitution I can guarantee there would be.
"picture id" is not acceptable under the "Save act".
