  1. The Senate was elected for six year terms to insulate from a demagogue gaining too much power by gaining a temporary majority. It was to slow down changes to insure that they actually represented more than the emotions of the moment. More importantly, the Senators were selected by the state legislatures to represent the state's interest so that a small group of powerful people didn't override the interests of the smaller states. This started being undone by direct election which gave. Political parties greater power, the staggered election further increased the chance of changes created on an emotional push by a demagogue. Can we return to the original concepts, I doubt it. Can we at least keep an emotionally driven majority oppressing the minority and their interests.

  2. Mayor Adams blames Texas for doing exactly what he is doing except Mayor Adam's said New York City would welcome them. These towns didn't ask for them.

  3. No, not fire them all, just any who are at the top level whose ideology is socialist and who protect anyone supporting that ideology. That doesn't mean silencing the ideology, just insuring that the scale isn't weighted in their favor.

  5.  @thesciguy4823  My granduncle sat at a Thanksgiving table after President Kennedy was elected and laughed about how the Democrat Machine stole the election in Chicago and Cook County which than stole Illinois. Why was that important, he was a 28 years Democrat member of the city council of a Cook County suburb and a leader in the party in both Chicago and the county. Very little has changed but the leadership of that Machine.

  6. Depending on the classification, that will be the first element on reducing the number of people who could be the leaker. The higher the classification, the more limited are the number of people with potential access. Second who had duties requiring access to the material (possibly even limiti n g the number of actions that even received the material. I have seen it, but given what I have heard described; it probably included Top Secret and possibly (if sources or methods were mentioned) Top Secret SCI classified documents from that point AF Electronic Security Command and the other services equivalents will be able to home in on the leader. However, there is one other possibility, that the leak was from a civilian employee s with tacit permission from above. That is in a conspiracy theory realm so far; but the longer it takes to find, identify, and take action increases the odds that a conspiracy theory will be at least considered.

  7. What do you expect when promotion to colonel and all generals required a Senate approval after a list was submitted by the Executive Branch.

  8. Whether these people realize this or not, standard times provides a way to relate times to a standard. There were 24 time zones world wide and you could relate timed events or work hours. Making daylight saving times year round means that people dealing with US companies or markets will have an issue on this point.

  9. Strange isn't it zisrael oppressed them; but they are allowed to gather and March against the Israeli government in Israel. Try that in Iran or Gaza(before this started).

  10. Wrong, it was established during wartime to lengthen the working day without having to use electricity. Check it out.

  11. The New York City mayor has no right to force other governments do something. He can negotiate with them to do it.

  12.  nigel thornberry  Making Standard Time mandatory does the same thing, and continues to allow people and businesses to use a standard. This was established to provide a uniform means of operating internationally. On a personal level, you want to call a family member in another country, the 24 standard time zones allow you to determine when to call for the least issue of the day and night cycle. The US using a different time schedule than the one in 23 other time zones makes that harder. All forms of business have one more factor. If you don't want the nonsense of changing the clocks, make the existing Stzndard Time the year around norm.

  13.  @johnsonhunglo1993  Besides having the lack of civility for which you condemn the Republicans, and the dicatorship attempts of under 50% of the US population via the Dennocrat Party, the Senate is doing its job; keeping a rabid minority from dominating the nation.

  15. He stopped a speech to allow the medic to work and then after recognizing the medics work; he resumed his speech. Could or would President Biden (OBribeMe) do that ? I don't think so.

  16. Actually "No taxation without representation". There actually were representatives 8n Parliament at the time, but they weren't elected in the colonies by the colonists. Parliament at the time was handled in a way that makes gerrymandering look good. You didn't have to live in the district that you represented, and candidates were selected by elites and ran in areas that they controlled.

  17.  @davidvonkettering204  By this point, hanging probably would have been the punishment. Either way the risked their lives and fortunes, no matter the cancel movement for the slave owners day, they were men of their time. It is a shame that we h a very forgotten so much of t he intent. No state was to control the Capitol, that is why the District of Columbia. It was to be a small Government controlling things that required a unified response, defense and mail. There weren't to be any political parties. The people didn't elect the President; but rather Electors who were supposed to reflect the will of the people electing them. The electors were to sit down and decide on the nest man for the job of President, today it would be the best person. The Senator were elected by state legislator and were to represent their states and have a long enough term that demagogues won't control the results. The people's direct representatives were the member of the House of Representatives. Their terms were short to allow for public approval and sentiment to be expressed but we ith the Senats to prevent a demagogue from gaining control. We lost all that though, parties were formed and the electors came to represent party candidates and the Representatives the same. Fina lly, the Senators became party candidates no longer representing the State and long term interests; but rather the party's current ideologies and leaders, made worse in some ways by a third of the Senate being elected every two years. Instead of a parttime Government the positions worked throughout the year with a permanent bureaucracy to run it. Then Administrative courts were added that didn't follow the Constitution since people hauled in front of them are presumed guilty and have to p r over their innocence. Now, we are rapidly becoming a one party state whose elected officials lie with impunity. Franklin, if I remember, said something to the effect we have give you a republic if you can keep it. The Founders are at least rollin in their graves.

  18.  @davidvonkettering204  Question if the last instance was 1781, who was executed and his exact offense? How frequently had it been done since 1700. I question if it was commonly in use.

  19.  @JackHartigan  Not really, or you won't have so many wanting thd change over to stop. The only question is do we want evrry country eventually using their own system or return to the Standard System. Business was a winner with the semiannual change since it did reduce requirements for energy use. It has been going on so long that unless you study history; you don't know why this particular dance was started. Too many Government behaviors started for good reason, but have continued because bureaucracies don't like abolishing things. Not related but pertinent, remember the military's super expensive hammers and toilet seats? Well procurement officials were using the same standard contract for them as nuclear weapons components which required large amounts of paperwork and compliance documentation, most of the cost actually was the administrative expense of documentation and the personal running the system. Bureaucracies are like that, tell them you need a tack and you get a gold plated one because it is easier to duplicate the requisition than right a specific one. Similarly, look at the end of year spending sprees. You have to spend what you requested for the year or next year the budget. I was overseas, and needed an item, the contract was outsourced to a special purchasing program rather than either a company normally in the business or allowing me to get a host country contractor. Two years in a row contractors under that program failed to deliver; and since I was prohibited from filling the funds over, I had to spend them and place the new request in the following years budget. The special procurement policy involved was a failure; but politics and social concerns made sure that we were stuck with it. So not all dumb things are done for power and control, but rather ideology and/or laziness.

  20. Any 9f these pe ople here on visas need them revoked and immediate deportation. Illegal should be immedistely deported. US citizens should be arrested and held without bond or trial until all January 6th prisoners are either tried or released.

  21. Ums and ahs are common. Signs that someone is either uncomfortable wth the response that they are making or are worried that they might slip on the truth. He never gave a clear answer to the question. Finally the BS that the cost should be equiably shared is nonse se. Chicago declared itself a sanctuary; my county didn't Chicago ehould pay for Chicago's decision.

  24. It wasn't by email, since it didn't exist, both Presidents Lincoln and Wilson both closed newspapers or threatened to over positions that they didn't like. In fact President Wilson jailed people who disagreed.

  25.  @amberam7437  Yes, you have a point, President Biden (OBribeMe) doesn't do rallies. Considering how often he loses track, or has a loss for words during his few press gatherings and getting lost on stage (from his apparent wandering and excessive guidance from helpers) a rally with its noise and distractions would result in a disaster.

  29.  @LeadStarDude  That it gets dark too early on Standard Time is an opinion, not a fact. You are entitled to your own opinion. I can say one thing the vast majority of the population hate the time changes. I would, personally, prefer standard time, my wife's family lives on the 9ther side of the world. I do research and contact people in other countries, so my preference is the Standard Time.

  30. No police officers were murdered in the riots. Do a little research, no one has ever identified one killed in the riot. The only man that 5hey associate with that died days later from a stroke. There were some suicides later that some blame on the riots, but that makes zero sense. Check out police suicide rates, well above the national average ; perhaps anyone involved in a traffic stop where the officer later commits suicide, has a heart attack or has a stroke should be charged with murder under that logic. I suspect that you won't agree with that logic.

  31.  @a_voice_in_the_wilderness  Only a lack of historical knowledge, not propaganda, covers your comments. Go back to the 30's and the reason that Palestinians lost their lands were that the actual landowners sold the land out from under them to the Zionist movement. The fighting, actually started in the 1930's because once off their lands, there was no work or place for them. You can go back further to the British Foreign Office deal to get loans with the Rothchild family's help. They promised Palestine to the Zionist Movement despite having promised it the leaders of the Arabian Peninsula. I almost for got Syria and Lebanon were promised to France earlier and then repromised to those same Arabian leaders. So who do you want to blame; and I haven't even mentioned the UN's 1947 partition vote which actually violated its charter. That vote allowed the European nations that either helped the NAZIs or were passive to them thereby making the genocide occur. They didn't want to accept the survivors back, and didn't care about Arabs/Palestinians. There are many parents to today's Middle Eastern misery. I did notice however, that you ignored the fact that they are freer than minorities and political factions in many Moslem countries.

  32. Lets see: Some Democrats consider 16 year olds are mature enough to vote (deciding who should control the military forces of the US. Most Democrats support even younger minor to obtain permanent alterations to their bodies, effectively neutering them since while the cosmetic change can be undone the actual reproductive damage can not be undone. Many Democrats want minors to obtain abortions without parental approval, yet at the same time hold them responsible in some states for the minors actions. Some Democrats require the minor to be unable to have a regular drivers license until 18, or have time of day or other restrictions. Do the Democrats seem to have a different idea of mental maturity based on the Democrats political beliefs rather than science ? The Democrats use the word "science" as a fighter leaf to hide their hypocrasy.

  33. First question are schools open? Was the young lady going to school? Why was she out at 11:30 on a school night? Does her uncle have any involvement with criminal elements, either opposing them or part of them? Answer those questions before you use the term gun violence. There isn't gun violence in most of the country its gang violence which the Progressives never call out.

  40.  @KatrinaRoseT  You seem to have missed a key point, the US was never meant to be a Democracy. One quote from from one of the founders is something to the effect that they had give the people a republic if they could keep it. The point is that one of the potentially worst forms of government is democracy. It is inherently unstable subject to the whim of the mob and the current rabble router leading it; think the French Revolution that led to the Terror which saw the mob turn on one leader after another and finally resulting in Napoleon'sFrench Empire. Under your plan a popular leader could sieze power by controlling a few large population centers which that leader effectively buys off (think the Democrat Dynasties in New York (mostly through control of New York City and the area around it; Illinois due to Chicago and C(r)ook County; or California by control of LA and San Franciso and the areas around them). People outside of these areas in the state have to live with policies that can be failing in these cities. Is oligarchy what you want be cause that is what you see out democracies descend into before dictatorship of some form (call it kingdom, empire or people's republic.

  49.  @johnsonhunglo1993  Check the polls, the Democrat programs and the results 9f Biden's executive orders (edicts actually and frequently over ruled as unconstitutional) are widely hated. As to likening them to Southern Democrats of old, which party supports resegregating the US? If you guessed the Progressive Democrats, you were right. The vulgar term that you attached to McConnell, is what the Democrats are selling and calling "pure spring water".

  50.  @johnsonhunglo1993  I love how your myopic vision blinds you. Swawell's Chinese spy lover, he is on the House Intelligence Committee despite that. The Chinese spy who was the driver for another Democrat in Congress. The millions made by Hunter Biden after he hitched a ride t here with his father on Air Force 2. As usual your vulgar language and attempt to ignore the segregation inherent in the Progressive segregation of the races in dorms and schools (under the guise of "equity or safe spaces" marks you as a hypocrite.
