@kavika121 it's barely started, bcuz most of his supporters think he's just playin-- he ain't! He plans to wreck of our way of life we all built over the past sixty years, in favor of a youthful fashy deal. We will RESIST!

yep, she's THE best. Stellar mind!

@berrylee5000 those were part of social distress, unrest etc, economics and was not an attack on the actual law enforcement itself and protector of the nation itself! ffs!!!! no comparison!

middle aged male yank myself and i'm quite concerned, even severely. However i knew something was turning dark around '14ish, could feel it deeply. Then '16 happened and it was plainly obvious. But many of us liberals and centrists won't tolerate much more Trumpism generally and any intentional dismantling of what is already a quite lean federal system that made life relatively quality vs the distant past. We will resist like our futures depend on it, for obvious reasons. These ppl in the new WH are neo-reactionaries and some are clearly incompetent, which means the intention of DJT is kakistrocracy, ie rule by the least qualified, bcuz the goal is simply throw chaos and sand into the gears. It's an actual potential natsec. crisis therefore, and our highest military officials better have done good research on that factor, bcuz this is how rolling coups do work in an open society like ours. We are individualists who will not tolerate what DJT is attemping, and if necessary we will shut the economy down entirely, thru mass ongoing NV civil disobedience, the only tool that changed anything in the 20th century!

@deborahlawrence8086 no u can move to russia if u want to support the DJT Admin which has wholesale adopted its position in a the world's first major land war of aggression since WW2, and against an actually european (unlike Russia itself) nation of freedom loving and demanding ppl!

yes! I'd also add that per medical ethics, no person can be compelled to use any part of their body (let alone their whole body and life) to sustain the life of another. Abortion is inherently ethical and U.S. law will shift when enough rational normal traditionally american representatives get into Congress and get this ship righted, ie put back in order. Constitutional ammendent will make abortion a legal right nationally. The US military cannot function without full access to abortion for personnel and familes. These Johnsons and Tubervilles and the youngins like Hawley and Cotton, are trying to suborn and subvert american way of life and the spirit and letter of the constitution.

certainly may be, but these days, his type of psychopathology is relatively common vs when we were young and the closeted gay phenom was common and a common source of self loathing among gay/related folks (there are extreme ex's of open and selfloathing and nihilstic like the british bonafide sociopathic psychopath
7
worse than that ,since then he's spoken out of both sides of mouth in a classic smarmy fakey-sounding non-transparent-politician-style way! he is utterly cringe-inducing in being a classic liar basically. He is very similar in many ways to DeSantis i.e very very dangerous ultimately, albeit different on the surface from DeSantis/deathSantance
7
@johnmuth3971 go a couple comments above and they all use E, ie mispelling is what humans do, u suspicious doubting thomas
7
@hm5142 yep but it's also the basis of sooo much well established law in the entire 250 years, especially in past 100-150 years and all that law is what our society is based on! These are radical folks, very much like subversive cult-like elements that fomented the chinese revolution and the russian revolutions as well as theological revolutions like Iran
5
@1230jazzman yeah with severe sentences even! it was very no nonsense in fact, and actualy in some cases looked draconian somewhat (and i'm a law and order type actualy ,even tho liberal!)
5
@anotherashley95 yep and literally some of the largest gvt contracts for services ever. To make private prison co's richer than god!
4
@michelletreichel9618 me too and i'm an american. Probably 40ish
4
precisely! Even we yanks know this! It's very very obvious that the incentives for Canada to not be part of the US are massive. The economics, the social policies including crime and law enforcement make it a no brainer to not join the US. Anyone who has ever studied economics or knows about local life in e.g. B.C. area, which is near me in the U.S., knows this.
4
it's real, ie sympathetic. The heads of FBI have stated plainly that most agents are conservatives.
4
@KeinName-y2s yes but that also means european nations will have to spend to create a new defense arrangement including ultra high tech weapons. This is literally a requirement now for more than one reason, and one is economic. Do it.
4
it's the ONLY explanation, for sure.
4
u got it! nailed it! And indeed, in our own lives even, there are some of these malignant ppl, including various shades. I've lost three friends in past ten yrs, two conservatives, one liberal politically, but regressed or revealed socially illiberal aspects to my big surprise. And so we see how when old habits of culture rear their heads, it draws out the darker natures of ppl we thought we knew were at least reasonably rational or moderate. I found out that's not the case. Indeed it explains also how the 3rd Reich could instigate and cow an entire german ppl into being part of an atrocity machine.
4
same here to at least a significant extent. Now i'm almost 55 and trying to get ready for mass NV civil disobedience. I was an infant during Vietnam protests on the hwy in '72 , iirc, and now we may need to do 100X the sizes of those marches.
4
@christinahek yes, they learned by thinking opposite to Startrek's values
3
@petem.3719 way more nuanced than that. The intersection of politics and law is a big thing & ultimately a minority is not going to be allowed to force unprecedented level intrusions into individual's private lives, as well as other rights factors of the majority of society. NOT gonna be allowed for years on end, OR we will rip apart as a nation. E.g. national co's that are located in TX will have to depart the state! Same w/ Florida! Lawuits constantly allover the place, creating total anarchy and chaos in the sociopolitical sphere. Ppl have no idea apparently that this country of profound individual privacy rights, individual human autonomy sensibilities (that were part of how and why abortion rights were the way they were) cannot function this way, with one state trying to pursue its residents who travel to neighboring state to break laws that are considered rights in the neighboring state. Again, NOT gonna be allowed to continue--that's just now socities function, EVER.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3
@jescde88 lame-o try, slick! Entirely false as well!
3
yerp, she always had her finger on the temp of america. She spent time in Arkansas and that is partly how she had such deep sensiblities. Let's not let the new-right subvert our constitution which they are attemping to do with clever means and tons of money, as are the really smart and rich outside forces of China and Russia and their friendos like iran and north korea
3
UTTERLY AGREE with u! Imho it's actually far more enboldening than DJT's 'stand by stand down' stmt, bcuz DJT was responding to a situation and is buffoon-like and not intelligent as even modest intelligent ppl probably realize, but Elon is intelligent and wasn't responding, ie forced to do the salute, he did it on his own in a very interesting way actually, with much more gusto and elegance actually than most 3rd Reich folks often did. The swooping to the side style he used is one of the classic dramatic variations that Hitler himself and his very top brass used, i've seen it many times on recordings. More importantly, to us americans of middle age at least, nazi sentiments are plainly deeply unacceptable socially. Thirty years ago the nazi marchers had to be pretty careful and were scorned widely and probably physically hounded oftentimes here in the Pacific Northwest, where i'm from. In any case, they're soon going to 'find out' how much we normies will not tolerate them further, as part FAFO.
3
@M14_ToterAK nice try ru-bot: the founding papers say exactly what we do and are obligated to: rising up on the streets
3
it's clearly to harm all ppl in the US who are not very very wealthy already, bcuz the stock market middle class and upper m.c. will be harmed severely by this. The poor will be annhilated by whats coming. My basic tax/ins costs just jumped 18% for this year!
3
yep! he is great and overall CA has been the best run state in the union, bar none actually, for us policy, law, infrastructure geeks. There's a reason it's massive as an economy and has been attractive for quite some time, ongoingly. Quite unique in demograhpic and economic history of any state. That's why all the jealous rage of the new-right against CA
2
bingo rama! Indeed it ironically isn't about neglect of infrastructure, laws, etc. This is physics and an incredibly useful way to explain physics for ppl not familar w/ science. In uni/college i took Water & the Environment which includes hydrology etc. Naturally the western U.S. is the best and most fascinating example of the complexities of water management. I'm middle aged and have only ever lived in CA for six months but bcuz wages were very good for the seasonal firemen/workers way back when, but i did other work instead, easier on the lungs. Most of the fires that have happened in the past decade were impossible to avoid, actually, from what i understand. Going forward, i suspect there will be new ideas in the management of the interfaces of residential areas and zones-of-brushlands/forests, etc. But even any version of that would not have prevented these fires this month, and these are likely the only unimaginably expensive fires, on paper at least: But to me, i don't care about that part of the cost, i care about how dangerous these particular fires were to safety, which fires like this always are.
2
@DarleneBurgess-qm1sy american here. Most of the canned goods here are canadian, same w/ jam /jellies going back 20 years.
2
yes. It's simply too small a group to be a decent sample size, as it were, for the population and for the complexity of modern law
2
its a myth bcuz it was during DJT WH that both inflation got brewing & cooking & supply chain issues in particular becamea huge issue. Many of us knew that who follow biz world closely, including shipping world. Toyota was already having issues, including hits to quality bcuz of supply chain in all liklihood. Bottom line, in the USa, inflation is not something the society can handle, unlike many other countries that have mitigating factors like social safety nets or gray market economies or shadow economies. Trump caused chaos that he does not deny, that was his intention, and that has a ton to do with the supply chain (china included) , as well as domestic american moods, habits ,practices. That's how inflation and prosperity-issue, work! Read more about econ and u will see. Easy to connect the dots, though not easy to quantify in real time.
2
yep! Ya'll need to vociferously be firm and hard with the DJT admin bcuz they truly cannot be trusted, i can assure u as an american who started paying deep attention to our politics from around 15 years ago, but esp from 8 years ago
2
this is abso spot on and correct: the total numbers of popular vote matters tremendously in THIS election in particular, for the FIRST time in history!!! We may end up seeing why
2
@dfuher968 very astute synopsis ! I do think he's sharper than that but not by too much, AND it's clear that he has no comprehension of either this war's nature, or history generally and that's really stunning to me personally bcuz though i'm relatively highly educated in history and international politics, i wasn't the best student at my ultra elite school and program.
2
Jimmy lived long enough intentionally to get us through these really dark past 4-8 years, especially us middle aged ppl who grew up w/ him standing out. It's now up to us to finish the process of re-securing our democracy
2
that's right, Anne says that this level of corruption visavis foreign policy is totally unprecedented,and i'd say extremely unacceptable after the past 25 years of severe foreign policy mistakes and mal-investments of time/blood/treasure. DJT's foreign policy should be watched like a hawk, bcuz the odds of serious mistakes that could be medium/long ruinous to us all, is quite high odds. This is truly an acceptable situation. And the likes of Hailey as part of , let alone head of foreign policy, is absurd!!!
2
by design of course
2
agree. I'm also a liberal and dem. Wehner in the past seven yrs has been a very unique voice out of anyone in the country, really.
2
indeed fellow irishman! I'm a Yank, third gen, fwiw, who's only alive bcuz my grandfather left Eire when his family wouldn't talk to him after he helped the cause in the '20's. Freedom is in most of our blood and we will overcome trumpism increasingly.
2
@siswohlslagel8919 and focused on Pence, the intentions were very clear what DJT wanted!!!
2
i'm a very liberal american and literally have an FBI file on me supposedly for actively opposing US foreign policy in the 1980's (yes, for real, i was a rare organizer type) , and even i disagree with u that the US is still the bully of the world. Increasingly since the 1980's that has not been the case. And in fact countries like Ru really are bullies, really are colonialist and imperialists for real and haven't changed sociologically /politically in over a 100 years plus plus. I recommend Jonathan FInk's channel called Silicon Curtain, a brit (with irish family history), which is really outstanding in discussing the situation of Ukr, and how that relates to this very topic.
1
yep, but what 'happened' so a lot those u knew is nothing. They were courteous when younger bcuz humans are simply social creatures who mimic each other largely. Once a n authority figure starts to entirely change the game, the real selves of ppl emerge. They show their ugly sides. This is similar phenom of having a friend of someone we're courting, who shows their normal side, but only later u see their manipulative b.s. and other dysfunctional shiesse that is rooted in the shit-values side of ppl. All my life, i sensed that the coldness of very conservative ppl (and even one of my pals on the left who was rather simple) was a cover for sociopathy basically. Now we know it was, for sure. Be very careful who u spend your time/energy on. Right now the toxic ppl with much pathos are letting it all hang out! Also we need to help the Dem campaigns everyhwere, esp the purple races including in the heartland states, and also places like Montana, and i'd say Texas and several others
1
Linker nails it re what would be a catastrophe if Congress just lets DJT do whatever w/ nominee picking/etc, bcuz that really IS the basis of governance; and the constitutional writers/founders were focused on the duty of Congress to advise/consent re the cabinet and agency heads, bcuz the british King had harmed the colonies so much purely via his agents. Re Romania, will read the Mounk article since it's extremely important topic, ie the dominoes that Ru is attemping to push over/manipulate, increasingly succesfully! But at first take i'm not so sure re Romania's court's reaction: if u consider RO's history and how horrible Soviet/Romian autocracy was for them, it's udnerstandable theyd reject ANY manipulation of their election, after seeing the past eight years of global manipulation by teh MOST skilled online manipulators, that of Ru and China.
1
totally agree w/ Galston on the health agency head/ visavis future pandemic results if bad nominees for health get the position: contagious disease factor IS a non -negotiable factor, bcuz it affects everyone in society. This is literlaly non negotiable. Under NO circ's can RFKjr be the head bcuz he clearly is not sensible re health, he cannot see clearly, it's very simple no brainer that he cannot be in that position.
1
@Globalist-Lost we dont', ie normal americans like myself a middle aged man who loves the open-minded humanist american traditions and not the new ultra nationalist nonsense which has NO place in american life!!!!!!!!!! You are a militarist and that is unamerican
1
bingo! So many ppl now are not able to keep track of the facts and ongoing shitshow of new RW and neoreactionary attempted-to-takeover our society, that they miss the core facts of high profile things like this atrocious killing
1
yes very very dangerous. As a former student of diplomacy, the events of late are deeply alarming, in a national security sense. I sure assume there are mil intell and intell community folks who are now suspicious of some of the WH players and even DJT himself, bcuz there ARE indications of subterfuge of US interests and offical foreign policy objectives.
1
@inrainbows1829 it starts as an illegal presidency on the 20th, per the 14th. Kirchner explains it, Denson does as well on her own channel. Wake up, u DJT supporters are pushing an illegal presidency on us! WE WILL NOT COMPLY TO HIS ORDERS, LAWS, ETC
1
@dfuher968 yep. And btw we as men are scared sh*tless of what the Johnson's and the Amy Baret/cohn's want to do (she gained skills/schooling or something down there (LA) btw & was in a kooky social arrangement to boot!). These are the real deal in as James Carville's YT vid just said, 'they want to get into every aspect of your life". Btw, Johnson's idyllic version of a Covenent marriage is mutual surveillance etc. As we all know he does it with his son for online monitoring , each of them on each other. I knew a guy who basically snapped in his older years, had that obessive mindset where his preachy judgy ways migrated into trying to manipulate and control everyone. These deep thinking ppl who are also like that in many ways, and have the power to influence the masses who are ignorant, are obviously deeply dangeorus to the american way of life, in every single way. The only way to deal with them is full opposing in every way, and lawsuits.
1
would love reference to it, which vid?
1
@Cantmuskit correcto!
1
@ecstanton kind of an inane stmt, no? The whole pt of democracy is that it's participatory and the only grift-proofing is bcuz of that, THUS ppl need to participate and to promote the institutions that are fundamental and independant from the elected officials such as president and congress: e.g. DOJustice. Today's new-rightist conservatives are literally actively promoting subversion of the independence and integrity of the DOJ and related agencies like FBI. They are trying to sew doubt to try to delegimatize the org's, as if like a Maoist or Stalinist purge is desired. These are dangerous antiamerican folks who have hijacked the GOP and it needs to stop, or there will be a need for constitutional ammendents related to preventing political parties from ever pulling this shist again!
1
i doubt that it's 'as likely' ie 50/50, i think there are far higher odds that the proceedings will be the illumination of the outline of facts that finally makes it clear there was a treasonous criminal conspiracy to defraud around 80 million voters who voted for other than DJT. Only Scotus will be able to keep DJT out of prison if he is convicted, and i predict he will be. I lived in D.C and even took notes many times at congressional hearings. Incidentally D.C. fed courts are known to be good for the defendents actually, so DJT is very lucky the case is there, actually. Perfectly fair location, in the big scheme. Rural West Virginia would NOT be his peers.
1
yep the writing was on the wall. These ppl have bit by bit encroached on the basic philosophical-social basis of the US Constitution, and the later modern development of our laws via the ammendments. They are all based on illiberal concepts in social philosophies/religions that countries like France have figured out ways to keep at bay. We will need some of France's legal framing perhaps. We normal americans will NOT let this crap keep rolling over our country and attemping to psych ppl out, gaslighting as many as they can, so they can erode our basic personal physical rights. (like in medical ethics, NO person can be compelled to use any part of their body to sustain the life of another! that is what pregnancy is, thus abortion has to be legal, per medical ethics.) Grew up in catholic church/school. I am entirely pro abortion and always have been! I happen to now be an atheist, bcuz one of my parental units was a genius scientist engineer, thankfully. @douglashogg4848
1
yeah, that is interesting. I'd love to read your descriptions of those college experiences w/ the viewopints of those fundamenalists. I've only come across one such person in college, mostly bcuz i was in liberal spots i guess. But i also went to a jesuit uni, but they're pretty liberal of course. (relatively speaking)
1
@Catfluff521 yep, he feels the inappropriate comfort and kinship, and actually believes it. NAT SEC RISK. The generals know it. NO ONE will listen to DJT or Hegseth. IF that's not the case, pls expect Ru/chi to infiltrate the US quietly during the next three or four years
1
it's up to us now: DJT has attempted what is called 'state capture' and is ruining 150 years of progress in making gvt operations a-political and thus uncorrupt. Within months he will assign on local levels, favorites based on the old human trait of cronyism etc. This will be a corruptocracy by definition, that's the only other system there is when u remove actual professionals and replace them with political extremists or zealots, including profiteering privatizers of basic services
1
yeah esp the two leaders of the two publically widely known agitator/domestic terror groups, Tarrio and Rhodes, plus the three florida guys,and of course the sevearl who tried to kill Fanone, tasering the base of his neck several times putting him into cardiac arrest while the other hooted/urged the guy to kill Fanone with Fanone's pistol. DJT is going to pay a price for this, OR society overall will pay OR the GOP will pay. Let's get on with politics so we can avoid all of society paying!
1
and we'll have to make sure we convert our disgust into mass protest in marches and NV civil disobedience probably as well bcuz this 'regime' doesn't appear swayed by much and sees liberals as passive and sees centrists and conservatives who oppose DJT as enemies of the state. It's time...
1
in a functional self-governing democracy, in an open/free society, the premier or leader should not be able to pardon themselves from a crime! That is patently absurd and violates the entire fiber of the meaning of leadership of a free society that is self-determined! duh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1
@CurtOntheRadio ahh, so you ARE implying that DJT has goals and values very different from that stmt by Adams? Makes sense that ya'll want top down hierachies of old WASP/white folks in charge of everything, am-i-right? lol. Get ready to be bleeped.
1
yep & not a one around Biden-world. Funny how the truth matters!
1
correct! Thnk about this: in a blue state i am now paying this next year almost 5K on health ins (after subsidies by federal gvt) premiums out of my 25-29K income next year. That is morally wrong and i may actually end up dropping insurance after next year, though it could be financially ruinous or deadly to myself.
1
@StephenGrover-zc4hp why do u think DJT held the bible upside down in front of the church across from WH? pretty sure u can find some indication in bible that that stunt was a signal of something 'not right', lol. (especally given he had a national guard helicopter lower dangerously low to intimidate peaceful protesters at lafayette square, so that he could walk to the church. In case u dn't understand how important that event was, that was the first truely symbolic fascistic thing that's ever been done by a US president. AND that means we centrists and liberals are not on alert and aware of what has really been going on by the aggressive rightwing folks for a long time actually. Your fake theology threatens all of us and that means there will be social and legal consequences for you all.
1
@davidjackson2832 i wish it were that strategic or in the american interest. Those minerals are decades away from being available! DJT's play is purely about the politics of the globaly new ultra nationalist RW movement/s , which are insane and nihilistic. This is literally a form of mania among the new populist ignorant rightwing.
1
@PS-ej2xn yes u love not knowing, not understanding actual on the ground consequences. U r about to find out. FAFO
1
dn't be depressed about the fact that the avg human being defaults to primitive atavistic idiocy when they are either: confused, distressed, lazy, entitled, or just oppositional-defiant, or deeply ignorant, or blendings of all these and more. It's not something for normal folks to be 'depressed about'. But the way to end that feeling is to volunteer for the Dem's and do their call center work. U do it from home i guess, so it's very easy and safe. We HAVE to do something more this next yr election campaign period. This is not a normal year when we can wing it. DJT has said he would be president this time in order to 'do vengeance' on behalf of this voters and that he would cancel the constitution! He's telegraphed every major thing that he's ever done in gvt, and even what Scotus would end up doing, ie overturning RoeVwade! He predicted it a few yrs before, literally very specifically, as if he literally knew he'd be able to get the exactly far-right activist judges in to make it happen. And that's what happened in 2022, the year that ended our rational precedent-based legal system over its entire legal history, i.e at least 150 yrs, if not 250 even maybe. (fyi, precedent re Roe was expressly stated in cases just five yrs ago! So this overturning was a radical activist thing, NOT the way courts have EVER dealt with major cases or social issues. There is a soft grand social radicalization and subervsion of our open/free way of life where ethics were the rule and norm. In medical ethics, no one can be compelled to use their body to sustain life of another! I.e pregnancy cannot be compelled and abortion is a right, in medical ethics. These ultra rightwing nuts are trying to undermine the social fabric of these United States and it's up to everyone to write to every congress person and to talk with relatives friends, and to protest as if u worry the mouth breathers will come to kill your own self and /or family etc, bcuz , ya know what, there's some intimations of that too!
1
no, in 2021
1
@milerale5286 not one of those was illegal at all. All were either humanitarian to prevent genocides like Serbia, or to stabilize regions causing global instability.
1
Sarah, i'm not exactly sure what your idea is re the Elon nazi salute but i mostly disagree w/ u on that: attention span right now is very short due to the obvious big event of the new Admin but this salute will be remembered for sure, particularly bcuz it's permanent now and there'll probably be a moment in future where the new ultra RW aspects come up, and maybe germany votes in the Afd more, which is looking pretty likely with the spring election, and then Elon is remembered the same week he met w/ Afd woman leader he had his moment of glory giving speech at inauguration and did a clear cut salute, and note he did frontal, then turned around and saluted the wall. But his initial frontal is a bonafide type of actual 3rd Reich salute; that side angled one is one Hitler himself did ,and some other very high level officers did as well. A lot of us who are middle aged men now r geeks wrt WW2 and Third Reich, ww2 was what we were steeped in as kids, though Vietnam war as well, in retro very soon after it. Culturally our gen is steeped in war and war analyis/constrasting in particualr (ww2 vs Vietnam, the war that truly divided the nation profoundly).
1
actually that case, per the legal experts i've listened to and who are very reliable, can easily be now increased by the plaintiff woman to multiples of ten million, conceivably 30, even 50 m. There are no limits known.
1
no one cares about his health, except those who adore him. But the risk of health to the mass majority of society, is the risk taken when we the ppl and press do not call a personality disorder for what it is! Humans are uncomfortable talking about personality issues/disorders and talking about how a leader with one, can manipulate the weaker personalities of society, like has happened toward 'conservatives' in american society, obviously. This is the fact and anyone who's ever read a text on psychology, sociology anthropology or anything else, like history, sees this.
1
yep! and it must and can be thwarted, thru social exposure, & active opposing, rebuking, suiing, etc etc etc. DO NOT RELENT or stop resisting! I'm a yank btw.
1
and and it's fairly likely someone may make a violent attempt against him. Bcuz could be friend or foe, in this case.
1
many do! They hate those of us who brought us econ success, aka the moderates and liberals who make everything work!
1
@TheLucanicLord clever---
1
not bad but there are far better explorations including other Bulwark interviews recently.
1
yeah they will try and they/civilians have millions, literally , of those assault rifles, in the hands of ppl whose values are not good and clearly not christian. So yeah , we're up against it, but most of us will..not..let our country be dismantled as they are trying to do by any means necessary: for now they r trying to use legalistic means like the Nazi's literally did in the early '30's, and when that doesn't work, which it won't, their 'loose cannon' ppl will start blowing things up. We can stop them. Mobilize! And if trump gets in, there must be sitins around WH permanently, and we need ten's of K's to march on WH every few weeks or months, etc etc
1
yeah DJT rolls right on after a gaffe, but probably has no idea he said the wrong name, and that would be what makes him actually incompetent or deranged, technically. He is technically deranged, and showed that over time in various interviews and behaviors.
1
thus require us to protest en masse. March 14 in D.C. We will likely need to do mass NV civil disobedience this month and in April. There's no alternative given how slow the wheels of justice and gvt are turning to even slow this onslaught against our entire way of life that we grew into the smoothest operating machine of great ppl: US fed workforce is a mere 6% of the budget! The sci/helath programs alone that were cut are VITAL for health and econ prowess and were 1-3% of budget in toto!!!!!!!
1
15K trans identifying ppl being fired from military IS important for the national security, lowering it. But more importantly it's clearly constitutionally/spiritually anti-american and immoral
1
@Lonewolfmike yep. And note that GOP politics right after that went full bore reactionary propagandist with pandering to 'evangelical' rightwingers etc. That was what many centrists and dem's noticed AT THE TIME in the early '80's. I was a teen and saw it myself.
1
right! my super liberal mother campaigned for him ,as did Hillary Clinton (who btw became a very reasoned mind and good person for this countryy, so unfortunate she lost to the russians and Comey in all likilhood, we were psyched out by aggressive macho facistic-alligned b.s. in '16 and it almost ruined MY COUNTRY.
1
yeah well Wehner thinks of himself as conservative, not republican, which is an extraordinairly wide chasm today, between the two. @pamlewis1183
1
yep! i knew this would happen to many ppl during this now 8 yrs running subversive attempt to destroy the epistemiology of reality or social reality. They will not win, under ANY circumstances, as long as enough of us stand up strong! If DJT gets in and starts doing what he's stated, 100's of K's of ppl will sit-in, stand-in, work-stop, etc etc. This country will not tolerate this vile and literally treasonous behavior. What DJT is doing is clearly destablizing to national security, as we JUST saw in Israel, which had been THE most secure country on the planet. 18 months of severe social division due to the ultra-right gaining power there suddenly and trying to neuter an entire check-balance on the executive, caused the country to look weak and terrorists strike only when a superior force looks weak. So sorry for your heart attack and hope u heal well. I'm a straight white middle aged male and will fight and die for LGBTQ rights, FULL rights of every type, and i'm wiling to die for it

@alitalaura actually deeply incensed with rage right now, in the past two weeks. The past six weeks have brought out our sense of grave injustice. This next month or two will be protest including million person marches

yes but also he knows tariffs will severely damage the incredible success that stocks/assets have had now since 09. This is by design. This is mao-ist madness, very very dark, Dugin-nihilist psychotic shiesse

Tim chose well w/ bukakke. AND Tim's spot on about Klobuchar, who imho is so high profile and formerly excellent, that the even slight chumming w/ DJT is abso unacceptable in the past few months up till today. Tim is dead right about the general Dems or liberals or any normals being so apathetic in the face of this onslaught by DJT

i love Biden's performance as Prez, but he really does seem a fair bit frail-ish, but the real point is just statistical , i.e he really has a very fair chance of not being able to fulfill second term, and there are some serious questions about Harri's abilities, though i want to like her, but while i loved her initially when she ran for the prez nomination , she hasn't really impressed me at all during these years. So i dunno what to think atm. There ARE great Dem potentials i'd think, like Whitmer and a few others

not just a feeling, but indeed that's who he's always been, and why some of his photos show him in the european war crimes court robes/garb where he prosecuted the worst war criminals in modern times or in european modern events time, the former Yugoslavian genocidal men who were finally caught after many yrs in hiding and on the run. Loooove that Smith stared at Trump ,with Trump utterly unable to even look back let alone attempt to stare back. Trumpism is the deeply male & deeply weak phoney-baloney machismo that is like a paper tiger. And we normal folks ARE gonna shut this trash down, DJT will NOT be the next prez, that i am pretty sure of.
