Been a daily marijuana user for 50 years. Maintained jobs, paid my taxes, can operate saws and heavy machinery, have only been arrested for possession of a joint (decades ago), and am retired on a pension. Now, I'm a 'maker' of IoT devices using Python, Raspberry Pi, and Arduino. Only health related issue was lung congestion, until I quit cigarettes and started vaping concentrated (95% THC) marijuana, which eliminated inhaling carbon particles. IOW, marijuana has never been my problem.
My problem is the non-users who have no personal experience nor understanding of the effects, yet make judgemental conclusions about the morality of those who choose to use it. Evangelicals believe marijuana is the tool of the devil to enslave his victims into a life of crime. So, they alienate and avoid all 'drug addicts'. Most of my family have rejected me because of it.
IMHO, marijuana frees the mind to consider alternative possibilities and enhances creativity. It stills the mind to allow deeper thought and more mindfulness of oneself and relationships with others.
Marijuana is neither a crutch, a monkey on my back, nor ball and chain. I has been a lifelong old friend, who has given me much pleasure and peace of mind. "I have become comfortably numb." 😎

Yes, I'm with Smerconish and more than done with pleading and arguing with suicidal idiots, who demand death over reason. Mankind hasn't become the alpha species due to survival of the fittest, but because of 'superior' intelligence, scientific knowledge, communication, and toolmaking. That skill set has allowed us to evolve and migrate to survive.
Utilizing these evolved skills are precisely how we detected COVID, knew it was coming, how the most intelligent among us have developed vaccines, and how the most intelligent among us will survive these pandemics.
Those who are misled by misinformation, conspiracies, and cults demand their freedom to deliberately refuse preventative measures, so F'em, IMO

My thoughts exactly. Society sucks, so many people avoid it. But, as this video demonstrates, society only goes out of its way to suck them back in. IOW, either conform to the demands of society or suffer being judged and ridiculed by it.
Society is the problem. These folks are only it's victims. Society needs to change its ruthlessly competitive and critical nature, instead of hassling these folks. Ironically, Taoism and Buddhism teaches mindfulness, minimalism, and effortless philosophies, yet many of those cultures are among the most competitive and capitalistic, busily racing towards an inevitable death, when all possessions are lost. So, beyond the comfort of oneself and immediate family, what is the point?

@jdfraed123 Thank you for asking.
I was a huge Tulsi fan, because she was so inspirational, forthright, and patriotic with her anti-war stance.
IMO, the DNC gave her a raw deal, under Clinton's leadership, to the point of disassociating myself with the Dem party, entirely.
Then, I noticed how naïve Tulsi is to believe that she could win a presidential race, one house party at a time, from the back of a borrowed cargo van.
Then, she seemed to fade from view, my personal view, because I NEVER view Fox.
2 days ago, I saw her and her husband's constant video loops of anti-Biden, anti-Dem, anti-American, right wing extremist YT stream and was so appaled that I stayed up for over 24 hours, just to counter the comments in the chat section, before crashing.
Next morning, the stream was still running and my comments were gone.
TBH, I believe that Tulsi has sold out her morals and our nation to tRumpism which I would hhave never believed from Tulsi, unless I had seen and heard it for myself.
Fox has embraced her for ratings, brainwashed her with right-wing rhetoric, and she has obviously given the narcissistic godfather her embrace of personal loyalty over our nation, just like the Congressional Republicans and 'loyalist' candidates before her.
Give the lonely self-serving monster a hug and he will fund anyone's campaign, as long as they toe the line on his Big Lie of a stolen 2020 election.
Now, I would NEVER vote for ANY Republican, who is an election denier, insurrectionist down player, nor Q-Q-nut conspirator.
tRumpism is the Bain of our nation and will be our downfall if Dems lose control of Congress. It is based upon malcontent, hatred, racism, authoritarianism, misinformation, and corruption... everything that our Founding Fathers opposed.
MAGA is nothing more than lipstick on a pig, a slogan for the gullible, ignorant masses of losers, who blame our government for their every self-inflicted woe.
Their only proposal is to blow it all up, without any thought of the chaos they would inevitably cause.
Radical ideologies is the LAST thing our nation needs. We have a great leader in Biden, who has already guided US through perilous times.
Inflation! Everyone cries, without recognizing that WE are better off than the rest of the world, thanks to Biden's efforts with one hand tied behind his back, given a divided Congress with 100% opposition from across the aisle.
No, our lives aren't perfect. When have they ever been? But that's no reason to throw away the fundamentals of democracy while 'flushing the swamp', code words meaning, "Storm the Capitol to overthrow the will of We The People in exchange for a dictatorship under a mafioso don's family."

Hypocrisy drove me away in 1968, at 17. That's when I started my personal sojourn for divine truth. But, only found mankind's fingerprints on every teaching.
"If god didn't exist, then man would create one."
IOW, it's all BS. Human beings are no different from every other being that has been evolving for over 8 billion years.
Time is immortal, omnipotent, undeniable, the creator and destroyer of all matter in the Universe, from the Hydrogen atom to the orbiting planets of solar systems.
Every heartbeat, breath, moment of birth, awareness, hunger, thirst, defecation, urination, education, masturbation, procreation, and decimation is dictated by Time.
"Time waits for no one."
"No one can turn back the hands of Time."
"Time is of the essence."
"Time to ____________."
Ancient civilizations worshiped the Sun. But, that was only their clock, telling them when to sow and reap.
Pray to Time, if you please. You will receive exactly the same reply as any other deity. Immortals are oblivious to mere mortal created woes and desires.
We are on our own. Deal with it.

@waltergrace565 I'm nobody, but I'm 100% in agreement with everything President Biden is working his ass off to achieve FOR OUR NATION. He is strong enough to kick tRump's treasonous rump out of the Oval Office, wasn't he?
He was strong enough to pass a $1.7T American Rescue Plan to keep our economy stimulated and families in their homes, wasn't he?
He was strong enough to make the tough decision to get 125,000 civilians out of terrorist infested Afghanistan, with only a dozen casualties, wasn't he? BTW, his successful diplomacy has allowed more US itizens to leave anytime they please, without jeopardizing a 5000 US troop presence.
Biden is strong enough to write the damned BBB bill that is soon to be approved by Congress, isn't he?
What's really sad is seeing my own US countrymen gang banging that same old man, who wouldn't even have campaigned, if not for tRump's corruption.
"I'm running for the Presidency to save the soul of our nation!"

@waltergrace565 Because tRump, the traitor who incited the attack upon our Capitol to undermine a fair election is STILL the single most dangerous threat to our national security and democracy. He's a vengeful wannabe dictator, who refuses to admit being defeated, refused to stand down, and refuses to abide by Constitutional law.
tRump has a stranglehold on the Congressional Repukes, who kowtow to appease his every whim, because he is threatening them with being primaried, just like a mafioso mob boss, straight out of The Godfather series. He gave them an offer they couldn't refuse as soon as he arrived in the WH, they sold their own souls and nation, then sealed the 'deal' with the infamous 'Embrace'. Just like the mob, once you're in there's no getting out.
The only reason you've not seen tRump lately on YT is that he's been banned on most social media platforms, just because of his Big Lie and fomenting hatred throughout our nation.
Wake TF up!

@chrispascarella7622 Obviously, you're an expert at shitting on carpets. FYI, there are NOT 240 million eligible US voters. The entire population is only just over 300 million. 81M + 74M = 155M = > 52% for President Biden.
Trump's approval rating never exceeded 49%, averaged only 41%, and bottomed out @ 34%. Biden's ratings are 57%, 49%, & 42%, respectively. Yeah, Biden has had a tough year, but thanks to his effective efforts, next year will be much better and his ratings will bounce back, accordingly.
Facts matter. Your BS is only BS.

@chrispascarella7622 No. BBB is exactly what this administration says it is. With ~60% public approval, it is the opposite of authoritarianism, so stop spewing words you don't understand the meanings of.
Yes, gas prices are high throughout the world, including natural gas. But, what has this administration done to adversely affect them? Biden has already requested that OPEC release more onto the International market, plus he just released ~100 million barrels from our national reserves to reduce prices. On the other hand, Jen reported that there is an imbalance between global oil prices vs prices at the gas pumps, IOW price gouging by oil corporations. IMO, this is their way of undermining the BBB sustainable energy initiative, in order to profiteer as much as possible.
"...save the Democrats ass on the billions wasted by them under the Trump administration..." WTF are you talking about? If a few Congressional Dems compromise by voting for a Republican bill, then it's all their fault?
If 100% of them don't agree to pass their agenda, then their failures have nothing to do with the 100% Republicants' filibusters and obstructionism?
Why are 100% of Repubicants refusing to fund their own bills that they chalked up during tRump's term? $7 Trillion added to our national debt, $2 Trillion worth of unfunded tax breaks to the top 1%?
Useless testimonies = defending our nation against a corrupt mob hijacking our government, by holding them accountable for cheating with Russian troll bank collusion. 2 Impeachments ain't nothing.
Have you no sense of decency nor responsibility? Do you deliberately ignore blatant corruption or simply don't care?

@southernbreeze3278 Valid point, granted. Polls are nothing more than a reflection of public opinions, which is only a matter of messaging.
IMO, this is the $Billion Congressional dilemma in the Senate chamber. Do Congressmen swear an oath to serve their constituencies or their nation? Because this is a perfect example of conflicts of interest, especially with Manchin owning $Millions worth of shares in Enersystems, which he makes ~ $.5Mil every year in dividends.
There are only a few thousand coal miner jobs, which could easily be relocated to clean energy jobs, which would benefit the nation and climate, plus eliminate the black lung disease and coal mine disasters inflicted upon Manchin's slave labor.
I don't see anything about Manchin that makes him a Democrat, but he has lots of GOP political donors. IMO, he should be stripped of his committee assignments and issued a vote of no confidence by the Dem party, just like what happened with Liz Cheney.
Same for Sinema, who is obstructing the entire party's agenda and jeopardizing their Congressional majority, heading into the midterms.
The survival of our nation's democratic republic is far more vital than the greed of 2 Primadonnas.

Mafioso mob boss 101:
* Surround yourself with a legal team to bully and threaten people with vindictive lawsuits.
* Surround yourself with big henchmen to do your 'dirty work' to avoid criminal charges.
* Run 2 sets of books for either taxes or loans
* Talk tough, but never threaten people directly. Use demeaning gangsta nicknames, like Crooked Hillary, Crazy Bernie, Lyin' Ted, Li'l Marco, Pocahontas, Sleepy Joe, ...
* Only trust your own immediate 'family' of blood relatives. everyone else is dispensable. involve them in everything, so that they can inherit the 'family business'
* After conquering another mob's 'turf', recruit the opposition after they promise their undying loyalty, sealed with 'the godfather's embrace'. (ref: week 1 of tRump's term) If they refuse the 'embrace', destroy them.
Dictatorship 101:
* Polish your delivery of propaganda, one liners, and anti government rhetoric. (super spreader rallies) Learn how to work your audience up into a frenzy. (You knew darn well I was a snake, before you brought me in.)
* Have your campaign manager share classified RNC polling date with Russian troll banks to allow them to target voters with outrageous anti-Hillary propaganda
* Discredit the MSM so that your supporters only believe in whatever you say.
* Divide the nation by demonizing the opposition party with outrageous lies, claiming that they only want to destroy the nation, but only you can save it.
* Keep drumming the previous 3 steps into a weak minded, god fearing cult for 5 years, until they are so deeply brainwashed that they parrot everything you spew..
* Blatantly thumb your nose at the DoJ, by recruiting the Attorney General to provide 'executive immunity'.
* Pack the Supreme Courts with loyalist justices, just in case.
* Rig the election system by claiming that everything needs to be 'upgraded', including the implementation of suppressive state election laws and the ability to over rule the majority of voters.
* Eliminate term limits (tRump floated the idea many times, as he always does, before making his moves)
* Predict that you will only lose an election, because of cheating to provide cover for your own cheating.
* Create a Big Lie that the election was stolen from you.
* Intimidate state election officials to 'find 11,780 more votes' which don't exist.
* Conspire with the DoJ to, "Just say that the election was rigged, then leave the rest to me and the 'R' Congressmen."
* When all else fails, organize a rally full of rag-tag right wing domestic terrorists, armed militias, and white nationalists to 'rouse your rebels' into a lynch mob and send them to storm the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power.
Monarchy 101:
* After achieving membership into the World's Dictator Club, one must be ruthless in order to become their leader and extort them for a piece of their action, just like their king of of all dictators.
* Make sure that your spawn are prepositioned to inherit your throne after your demise, regardless of how that happens.
Oligarchy Alternatives 101:
* Never give up, even after losing the election.
* Keep a stranglehold on your hijacked GQP Congressmen by threatening to replace the with hand picked 'loyalists'. Destroy the careers of anyone who doesn't kowtow to your every whim, especially regarding the Big Lie.
* As long as your control Congress, SCOTUS, and state elections, being POTUS is irrelevant and more trouble than profits.
* Keep the rallies going to fleece your sheeple of donations. Their money is your power

So true. smh
I'll raise you another point. I see many comments from evangelicals who seriously believe that climate change is god's will, just as predicted in Revelations. So, they're actually praying for the destruction of Earth.
They don't believe in manmade climate change and cling to the past status quo lifestyles that caused this crisis, to begin with.
How could anyone believe that god would be pleased with mankind destroying his only creation of a habitable planet, its diversity of life forms, and the fine balance of those ecosystems? That's like going to the trouble of baking and decorating someone a birthday cake, present it to the child, then smash it onto the floor.
You're right, we're screwed. Only the wealthy elite will be able to afford food, drinking water, sufficiently stormproof shelters, and security measures to survive.
That's obviously why Elon is getting preparing to colonize Mars. It's easier to start on a barren hostile planet than to fix what humanity has broken.
But, how can we responsible, mindful humans simply lie down and witness it happening without doing our part to avoid it?

james scott Have you ever traveled across the big pond to Europe and Germany? I'm assuming not, because Germany is a very strong country with a thriving economy, free education and healthcare. Their people are healthier, their streets are cleaner, and their society is more respectful and civil.
But, the USA has it's overly inflated ego and paranoid-crazed vigilantes running around with assault weapons. Don't we already have the largest military in the world to defend our nation from being invaded? Why don't the gun heads join the official US military, if that's what they are into?
No, these misguided people are preparing for when the SHTF, which will be on January 20th, when Trump refuses to admit losing the election and executes his coup d'etat, with the help of Barr's private militia of storm troopers. Then, these good ole boys are going to have to decide whether they are defending their nation from Trump's mob or supporting a lawless dictator. True patriots or traitors?

Bull! Blunt says, "The Constitution says 'trial', but it doesn't really mean 'trial'."🙄
The 'godfather' summoned all of the Congressional Republicans into the Oval Office as soon as he arrived. Trump understands that 'every man has his price' and has the resources to pay it. Obviously, he gave them 'an offer they couldn't refuse'. His 'embrace' sealed their oath of allegiance to him, above party and nation. That's why he has absolute control over the Senate and House Republicans. Woe to anyone who breaks their vow by not holding the Trump Party line. Yes, I said Trump Party because now he owns the Republicans.
This is the only possible explanation for their shameless behavior throughout the impeachment proceedings. One by one, Collins and others went to ridiculous lengths to deny indisputable testimonies from multiple reputable witnesses, blow distracting smoke screens, and spew outrageous lies in defense of Trump. No respectable person would stoop that low, without coercion. How is it possible that not one Republiturd could muster the moral backbone to vote 'yes', while being aware of this administration's corruption?
Furthermore, McConnell's public statement that he would follow the White House counsel's guidance and that there is 0 chance of impeachment passing the Senate is complicate, illegal, and unconstitutional, because it violates the separation of powers and oversight over the Executive branch.
Under the circumstances, Pelosi has no choice but to withdraw the articles. She has exposed Republican and Trump's corruption, which is the best she could hope for, under the circumstances. So, the impeachment is dead. But, instead of nebulous charges of 'high crimes and misdemeanors', she should have gone full bore with all guns blazing, including blatant violations of the emollients clause, deploying troops into Saudi Arabia w/o congressional approval along with many others.
Republican states have already cancelled their primaries, so Trump won't be challenged from within 'his' own party. After the backlash of a failed impeachment, Trump will undoubtedly win the election against the DNC's weak field of candidates, Dems will obviously lose the House and a vindicated Trump will be unstoppable.
Within only 4 years, Trump and his motley mob of Cabinet henchmen will have successfully conducted a coup (which he deliberately projects onto Dems) against our nation, without firing a shot. He has already discredited the MSM (as all dictators do), floated ending term limits (testing his opposition, as he often does prior to commitment) and is poised to become America's first dictator. Of course, his ego would prefer the title of 'King of the World.' Then, his heirs in waiting could inherit his 'kingdom'. Meanwhile he can join his coveted club of world dictators, such as Putin, Kim, King Salman, and others. All of this fits Trump's MO and explains his behavior on the international stage, doesn't it?
You think I'm crazy? Who's gonna stop him, now that he's already over half way there? Trump's only check on power is the Dem controlled House and they have already failed, simply because everyone dismissed it as only hyper-partisan politics from the left, instead of blatant corruption on the right. 😒
OORR.......
3 term NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg gallops into the race on his mighty white warhorse, wearing an impenetrable shiny silver coat of arms, wielding his huge sword of unlimited campaign funds. Unencumbered with petty DNC bickering, MSM sidelining, nor partisan politics Bloomberg easily thrashes Trump next year.
The DNC is forced to rally behind him, along with bipartisan voters. So, Dems gain the Senate majority and hold the House. Relieved Republicans can stop holding their noses and support Bloomberg's monetary policies. Washington DC and our nation reunites.
Trump and his mob go to prison, where they belong.
International relationships are restored, America returns to the Paris Climate accord, our economy stabilizes with a balanced budget and national pride returns.👏🤩🥳
The choice is yours, America.😎

We have that $30T debt because of:
a) Decades worth of failed Reaganomics, which NEVER trickles down to the most needy, but ALWAYS benefits the filthy rich who don't need the tax breaks and who aren't contributing their fair share of income, in order to fund the US government with sufficient revenues to provide the services (infrastructure, education, healthcare, environmental protections, etc).
b) The costs related to the 20 years worth of Bush/Cheney's Middle East warmongering and failed 'nation building'.
c) FEMA's costs for providing emergency resources for environmental disaster recovery for people living in hurricane/tornado/wildfire/super storm events, which are increasing in quantities and severity, due to climate change. Scientists have been warning US for 1/2 century, but have only been ignored. So, now mankind is going to pay for it own willful ignorance and greed.

Repukes think they can pass bills that take away personal freedoms by simply labeling them with the word "freedom".
These Q-nuts want freedom from accountability by law enforcement, freedom to overthrow the majority will of We the People, freedom for superstitious religions to rule US, freedom for everyone to carry loaded guns, and freedom to kill anyone they perceive as being a threat.
Their BS Freedom Caucus is nothing more than a group of tRump's authoritarian Q-nuts, who only want to take away women's rights, civil rights, immigration/asylum rights, healthcare, gun restrictions, and our Constitutional separation of governing powers and freedoms from religion.
They extorted key positions of committee powers from Cavin' McCarthy and are holding their threat to take away his gavel, unless he kowtows to their ideological whims.
He is an incompetent weakling and they are incompetent to govern our nation. NONE of their BS bills will pass the Senate, nor be signed into law by President Biden.

Yeah, I never use adapter plugs, which add weight and leverage on the mini connectors. My USB-C connector broke off, just because of not having an on board power switch (different SBC). Don't understand what was wrong with good old reliable barrel jacks. Since USB-C already has boost/buck converters, an aux 12 VDC header would be nice. Unregulated power (solar, LiPo packs, etc.) could be applied, w/a power switch.
Most serious makers will use 12 VDC cooling fans, powered via 12 VDC thermally controlled PWM modules, anyway. This also eliminates using the GPIO header for cooling, which conflicts with using a ribbon cable and is an additional power burden on the SBC.
But, no one listens to a hermit, do they?😖

Well said, Marvin. Your intended message is right on target. It's so sad to see that these weak-minded, brainwashed tRumptarded traitors have the perverse need to spin, twist, and contort your message, then spew their propaganda back, projecting it onto our elected POTUS, especially while he is serving our nation on the world's stage.
Nice try, but please don't give up. The more tRumptard BS there is only makes our truths even the more crucial for national health and security.👏👏👏👏
Please stay safe. (I don't expose my personal ID, just to avoid being tracked down by these crazy-assed, lawless, radical, right-wing extremist gun heads. JS) 😎

I feel very sorry for the widow of the man who was shot by police. She is very fortunate to have not been shot, as well. That was noly due to her quick response of putting her gun down, instead of returning fire after watching her husband being gunned down in the privacy of their own home.
The incompetence of these officers is astonishing. They're supposed to be the 'good guys' with guns to serve and protect. The couple, one dead, were the 'good guys' as well, weren't they?
None of this would have happened without both sides having guns in their hands.
Just yesterday, I replied to a YT comment saying that everyone should have guns. What next, I replied? From hand guuns, to assault rifles, to machine pistols, to 50 cal machine guns, to RPGs like we see in lawless shithole countries?
Gun heads just don't get it.
'A gun for a gun kills our whole nation', to paraphrase Gandhi. /smh
Cowards need guns to defend themselves against other cowards with guns. Common sense tells me to stay away from cowards with guns.
No guns, no fear, no one else's problem.

@FirstNameLastName-wt5to "...ALL fronts for human trafficking" Really?
First of all, that's a ridiculous generalization.
Secondly, if it were remotely true, the police would shut them down, just like last year in Tucson, when one was shut down for prostitution. (police were regular clients, lol)
I'm neither naive nor kidding.
Perhaps that's true in S. America with drug cartels, Africa, Asia or Russia, but not nearly 100% here in the USA.
So, I'm calling it outright bullshit.

@josedelatorre2569 Kudos to both of you for serving our nation. Shame on the voters who don't hold themselves responsible for electing leaders who are such genuine public servants and who take your sacrifices more seriously.
With that, I would like to point out how President Biden has stood tall among the leaders of the free world against Putin's invasion of Ukraine, without putting our troops' boots on the ground, nor escalating the volatile situation into a nuclear WW III.
I stand behind our current leadership and against the previous. Very happy with our current, mindful, dignified, respectful, respectable, experienced, statesmanship of our POTUS. President Biden is guiding our nation through very challenging and perilous times and hope that you agree that's it's best to have a firm, steady hand on our nation's tiller, instead of a narcissistic shit stirrer.
BR & thank you.🙏😎

@georgehugh3455 If Assad is America's enemy, why have no previous administrations removed him from power? Oh yeah, that would be another regime change that would end up exactly like the mess we created in Iraq an elsewhere in the Middle East... all for the purpose of controlling their oil fields, in the name of human rights an freedom. That's global hypocrisy, plain and simple.
This is Tulsi's point. Those are sovereign nations, of which we have invaded and bombed innocent civilians... solely for greed. They have not attacked us. We are not defending ourselves. So, how can America claim to be so self-righteous? We just keep 'shooting ourselves in the foot', because we are only causing Muslims to hate us, which is exactly what caused 9/11 and all of the atrocities that followed, including Afghanistan and ISIS. The Taliban didn't attack us, so why are we still there killing them?
No. WE are the brutal bullies in the eyes of the world. These are failed policies that are dragging us down, politically, economically, and morally.
You haven't met Assad personally, but have only heard our biased media coverage of him being such a monster. Americans are clueless about what is really going on in the middle east. One day, we are fighting side by side with local tribes. The next we leave them to be slaughtered by Turkey, after a phone call. One minute, we're 'defending' against Russian involvement, then we hand everything over to them. What a wasted effort, lives, and tax payer money!
America needs to stop taking sides in matters that don't concern us, just to profit from weapon sales, like in Saudi Arabia. Their leaders are no angels, either. So, why are we supplying them with our weapons? Filthy profits.
Tulsi is all about confronting ruthless leaders, face to face, instead of bombing their innocent people. She is absolutely right... about everything she states.

@AT-nq6cu 50/50 - 2 DINOs is NOT a functional Congress, while it only takes a phone call for a filibuster, which requires a 60% majority, before a bill can even be put onto the floor for debate. It's called a stalemate, not being in charge.
Manchin and Sinema are causing our nation to backslide into tRumpism and violent chaos. Look at the environmental disasters, caused by climate change, just because of oil dependencies and mindless human behavior. This is snowballing much faster than even the scientists predicted. Yet, McConnell stated that the GQP have no agenda, other than obstruction the agenda that the majority of US voters support, especially the younger generations, who will be forced to deal with the consequences.
The right are on the wrong side of every issue.
Nevertheless, Dems have made huge progress with their ARP stimulus package and the Infrastructure bills, which has been keeping families in their homes, businesses afloat, our economy healthy, and millions of lives have been saved by free COVID vaccinations for the entire population.
Yeah, omicron is spreading like wildfire, but the only ones still dying are unvaccinated tRumptards. There were 7.8 COVID deaths per 100K when Biden took office. Now, according to the CDC charts, there are only .13 per 100K.
Science and facts matter.

@pirate1254 In the USA, politicians are hired and fired by the majority of people to serve the needs of the people. No politician tells me what to do.
But, I'm intelligent enough to learn the scientific facts, then waited months to see whether anyone was having harmful side affects from a vaccine that tRump fast tracked through FDA approval.
So, last month, I walked into a Walmart pharmacy and was protected within a few minutes.
Now, I have nothing personally to worry about, even if unmasked around you.
Personally, I couldn't care less if tRumptard traitors commit suicide at his rallies. But, I feel sorry for their families, who have more sense.

@HolyGhostofBobbyLupo tRump charged taxpayers over $600 per night for hundreds of his SS agents to protect him while playing golf at Mar a lago. He diverted military transport planes to stop over at his hotel in Scotland, just to profit off their room and boarding there.
tRump charged foreign dignitaries to stay at his hotels. That's against the Constitution's emoluments clause.
He defied Congressional oversight, which is unConstitutional and why he was impeached.
The Hunter Biden scandal was debunked by the DOJ as being Russian propaganda.
Yeah, John Weaver and Jimmy Saville got caught with their pants down, but they have absolutely nothing to do with tRump's corruption.
If you want to play the guilt by association game, let's talk about tRump's association with the NY mafia, Gaetz, Epstien, and his love affairs with Kim, Putin, Assad, and other ruthless dictators.
You're only pissing in the wind while barking up the wrong tree, Trumptard traitor.

You're seriously defending a traitor because the pandemic has caused temporary supply chain problems. You should be thankful for being alive to piss and moan about it. President Biden's amazing rollout of vaccinations have/are saving millions of lives, despite the anti-vaxxers' stupid refusal. BTW, they are the only ones still overwhelming our hospitals and dying. You don't think their healthcare isn't costing taxpayers?
Since the Fed and corporate mandates, our nation is approaching herd immunity and the pandemic is all but over.
According to recent medical reports, tRump's gaslighting caused over 150,000 unnecessary deaths. I would say that twice that number is more accurate.
Yeah, life during this recovery period isn't perfect, but that's not Biden's fault. tRump allowed things to get out of hand, yet OUR President Biden is handling matters as well as any reasonable person could expect.
Stop your whining, Snowflake, and start behaving like a TRUE patriotic American.

@jacobcalham155 Ummm.. You mean something like refusing to honor the election results, conspiring to commit a soft coup with the AG, inciting the Jan 6th attack to stop our Senate's Constitutional procedure to certify Biden's win, hijacking the GOP and turning it into the crazy-assed GQP conspiracy party, strong arming Congressional 'R's with threats of being replaced by his hand picked 'loyalists'.
For 5 years, tRump discredited our MSM and told his followers to only believe in him. That's the first step towards a dictatorship.
"Crooked Hillary, Lying Ted, Little Marco, Crazy Bernie, Sleepy Joe, Pocahontas,...." all demeaning gangster nicknames.
tRump was impeached twice for corruption, defying Congress, and inciting the insurrection attempt.
tRump wanted to eliminate Presidential term limits, then obviously pass his 'crown' to his heirs in waiting upon retirement.
FYI, President Biden only mandated vaccinations for his Federal employees, under 50 year old OSHA regulations. it would be illegal for an employer to NOT provide a safe working environment for employees. That move has caused COVID hospitalizations and deaths to plummet, allowing our nation to get off it's knees and back to work.
GROW TF UP AND TAKE YOUR MEDICINE, SPOILED BRAT

Average American teens have only 3 choices:
1) Stay with parents on unlivable minimum wages,
2) begin adulthood from under a mountain of crippling student loan debt, or
3) survive on the streets as prostitutes or drug dealers.
Taxpayers have 2 options:
1) Pay for temporary higher education to enable young folks to become respectable members of society, or
2} Pay for the life long incarceration of unemployable repeat felons.
On the other hand, privileged elite teens have free rides to unlimited wealth,, served to them on silver platters by their parents, including higher education in ivy league universities, free housing, free EVs, and free tax write offs from corrupt, Republicant politicians.

@jamesg1974a Yes, millions of your fellow US citizens have empty wallets. Trickle down economics have failed the hard working folks who continuously struggle and work hard to make ends meet.
How did tRump's $2T tax break for his fat cat donors help folks like us? He only took from the poor taxpayers to give to the rich. They only purchased back their own shares on Wall Street to keep it afloat.
In spite of 100% GOP obstructionism in Congress, Biden's $1.9T ARP bill is providing assistance to people at the bottom of the food chain to keep them in their homes, apartments, and extending unemployment benefits until they can get back to work. ALL of that money will pay for bills, utilities, and food. That will trickle back up through the economy, keeping essential workers employed, businesses solvent, and their shareholders happy.
This administration is fact based, data driven, very professional and accomplished. Within only 100 days, they have effectively stopped the pandemic, in spite of all of the resistance to wearing masks and getting vaccinated.The border crisis is under control and life is returning to normality.
Why don't you give credit where credit is due?
Thanks to tRump, the GQP is destroying it from within, just like a cancer inevitably killing its host. Get on board and enjoy the ride, instead of whining about life not being perfect..... yet..

What is the physical difference between pre-puberty girls and boys? I can't even tell which gender the 12 year old Becky was at birth. Was she a boy, now transitioning to a girl or visa versa?
Sure it's obvious that high testosterone levels make adolescent boys develop stronger muscles than their female counterparts, so it's unfair for them to compete against each other in physical sports.
So, why not simply do blood tests for testosterone levels to determine which team transgender athletes belong on, instead of submitting them to irrelevant genitalia exams? That would also detect steroid usage among non-transitioning athletes, which is equally unfair. Problem solved.
The medical ignorance being exposed in these right wing, politically driven cases is ridiculous.
Leave LGBTQI...xyz folks TF alone. It's their bodies, their choice, and they are not harming anyone, AFAIC.
Where is the data regarding their criminality compared to heterosexuals?
BTW, I'm a 70 year old, white, strictly heterosexual male. JS

@brianernst3169 @LifeOfTheOwl clearly said "ppp loans', which has absolutely nothing to do with student loans.
FYI:
"Gaetz is a shareholder in Pensacola, Florida-based Caregivers Inc., which received a $475,932 Paycheck Protection Program loan.
Before taking office in January 2021, Marjorie Taylor Greene and her husband, Perry Greene, bought Taylor Commercial Inc., a construction business owned by her family in Alpharetta, Georgia. The company took out a $182,300 loan from the program.
Rep. Gregory Pence, R-Ind., brother to former Vice President Mike Pence, owned two antique malls in Indiana organized under Pence Group LLC. It received a $79,441 loan.
Car dealerships owned by Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Fla., before he took office in January 2021, also took in loans from the COVID-era program. Sarasota 500 LLC, which operates Sarasota Ford in Florida, received a $2.32 million loan; Nissan of Elizabeth City in North Carolina got a $384,200 loan. The government forgave both loans for a combined $2.6 million.
KTAK Corp., a restaurant management company co-owned by Rep. Kevin Hern, R-Okla., had a $1.07 million loan forgiven by the government.
Rep. Roger Williams, R-Texas, owns a Texas car dealership through the JRW Corp. in Fort Worth that received a $1.43 million loan.
Trace Die Cast, a Bowling Green, Kentucky, company founded by the father of Rep. Brett Guthrie, R-Ky., received a $4.3 million loan.
Four Pennsylvania car dealerships owned by Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Pa., took in a combined $974,100 in Paycheck Protection Program loans, ProPublica’s database shows. Mike Kelly Automotive, LP received $197,300, Mike Kelly Automotive Group Inc. received $327,500, Mike Kelly Hyundai received $180,800 and Mike Kelly Chevrolet received $268,500.
Heartland Tractor Co., a farming equipment company owned by Rep. Vicki Hartzler, R-Mo., and her husband, received a $451,200 loan.
Five car dealerships owned by the husband of Rep. Carol Miller, R-W.Va., received a combined $3.1 million in Paycheck Protection Program loans. The loans to DM Motor, Dutch Miller Chevrolet, Dutch Miller Subaru, Dutch Miller of Charleston and Dutch Miller of Charlotte were all forgiven.
The Instagram post differed for the Paycheck Protection Program amount Mullin received. The post claims he received $988,700, when ProPublica reported he received at least $1.44 million across four of his companies — Mullin Environmental, Mullin Plumbing, Mullin Plumbing West Division and Mullin Services.
The Instagram post listed Norman, a sitting member of 23 different companies, as receiving $306,520 in Paycheck Protection Program loans. However, ProPublica found Norman-associated businesses had received even more loan money.
At least three companies associated with Norman received four Paycheck Protection Program loans. FM Hotel LLC received $169,100, GBC Rock Hill LLC received $164,900 and Catawba Hotel Associates II received loans of $114,400 and $160,100. All told, Norman-associated companies received $608,500 in loans.'

@stephenthorpe6238 Yes, tRump has unleashed the dogs of war within our own nation. But, he called them off their attack upon our Capitol, just before the National Guard was deployed, so that his fans wouldn't get hurt.
I've also heard the threats of civil war. tRumptards declaring open season upon Dems, under a Dem administration? Will ex-military and retired police fire upon America's own troops, when they are deployed to defend American citizens?
How can anarchists and right wing militias call themselves patriotic Americans by killing their own neighbors?
IMO, these people are mentally ill and need psychiatric deprogramming, as well as their guns confiscated. They are a danger to themselves, their neighbors , and our national security.

@AT-nq6cu What people? you have polled all of the people of the world and are their official spokesperson? I'm not having any problems with comprehending the obvious fact that unless humanity evolves beyond the status quo, our entire species, as well as all others, will suffer from ignorance, such as yours. A century ago, everyone in WV were riding horses, weren't they? The problem is people, just like you who are clinging on to the past, not science-driven, life-long environmentalists like myself, who are aware of the challenges of the future, especially for future generations.
Instead of looking at Faux polling, why don't you look at how people under 30 are polling on climate change? Why don't you do some actual scientific research on climate change, instead basing your opinions upon political BS?
Why should Manchin support EVs? Simply because it's the most responsible path forward.

@XxGreatestyouknoWxX You're futile attempt to suddenly sound mature, followed with old Faux Spews rhetoric straight from Tucker Carlson's playbook only proves how conditioned your ill informed young mind is, regarding political events.
I'm not even about red vs blue, but US vs tRumpism, which is my only reason for having this conversation.
You're supporting a traitor to everything our nation stands for. tRump's moral core of human decency is lower than a whale's turd. No US citizen in his/her sane mind would EVER want such a POS as our leader after his narcissistic abuse of power.
If you honestly can't understand something as fundamental as this, then I'm not wasting anymore my time on you. You have absolutely no reason to be attacking decent people, like Jen and Biden.
Biden saved 125,000 Afghan refugees and US citizens from Kabul airport, while it was under ISIS-K attacks. When the Taliban took Kabul, Biden's diplomatic efforts succeeded in turning our enemy into our airport security for crowd control, which stopped the panicked mob from flooding onto the runway, as everyone saw on the first day.
Thanks to effective diplomacy, the Taliban are allowing any US citizen to leave whenever they please. But, some choose to stay with their Afghan families.
You're an arrogant little shit, still wet behind the ears, BOY. Now, piss off and play your computer games, until you're mature enough to discuss politics like a US citizen, who is concerned about the well being of the nation..

@patdbean Exactly! RADXA simply copies RPi, just with more impressive HW specs. But, that's only half of a computer system. IOW, RADXA simply throws some impressive HW onto a board, then mostly depend upon their community to sort out the software issues. That may interest some bored Linux gurus, but it took them 3 generations of the ROCK Pi, just to get the HD video playback to an acceptable state.
The heatsink still covers the eMMC module. The M.2 connector still points in the wrong direction and the ribbon cable still obstructs the microSD slot. The fragile M.2 'shim' adapter, flimsy ribbon, and expansion board are only remaining after thoughts from the 4B.
Still no onboard DC power connector, which dedicates the USB-C to only power delivery. Still no on-board PWM fan connection. Still no case to house the static sensitive components. So, if you actually want to MAKE SOMETHING USEFUL, start with designing your own DIY case if you want to waste the extra time and money. But, admittedly, the ROCK Pi ships inside a nice plastic throwaway case. 🥴
Sorry for the rant, but I've already had the RADXA experience and I'm triggered every time I see one reviewed. Once burned, twice shy.
Best regards. Stay safe, everyone!😎

@kyoudaiken So, how many other ARM SBCs do? Isn't that more of a low budget gamer's dream, rather than a maker's necessity? With folks, like Jeff Geerling on the case, I'm sure that GPU drivers will happen. But, to be fair, you really can't blame the RPF for being neglected by the proprietary GPU mfrs and not being able to provide compatible Broadcom drivers, can you?
Whenever I take on a six month long project, I simply want a stable, fully functional, well documented device, instead of jumping down a rabbit hole full of nightmares. RPi always meets those prerequisites.

Excellent catch on the initial test results, then repeating the tests👏👏👏
EleDuino sells a heatsink/case very similar to the one you tested, except it has temperature controlled dual fans and a touchpad on/off switch, all powered from GPIO pin 4.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VPQP15T/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Interesting note: Although these cases appear to be very similar, the following tests indicate the EleDuino Heatsink/Case runs hotter w/o fans running, because the circuitry, touch pad switch, and 2 fans replace material which would otherwise be Aluminum ribs. Therefore, it is important to leave the temp controlled fans on. They will run automatically, when required.
rpi-eeprom-update is 000137ab, the same as yours.
Results of temp_test.sh on RPi4B 4GB w/ EleDuino dual fan Heatsink/Case (above): ambient temp = 22.2'C:
No Fans With Fans With Fans & Motor Hat
*temp=54.0'C *temp=44.0'C *temp=45.0'C

Since I intend to implement a motor hat which restricts air flow, those results are also provided.
Hope this is helpful to your viewers.😎

@dennisgarrity6738 Been there, done with that after witnessing the hypocrisy when I was 15 years old. Your bible is a 3000 year old instrument of mankind designed to control the masses, not the written words of any god. It contradicts itself and is scientifically flawed in its content.
I also researched several different religions in search of some god's wisdom, but they all shared the same flaws.
Buddhism is a philosophy of merit, but it doesn't require any god to make common sense for honorable behavior.
How arrogant of you to presume yourself to be so much more holier than others, while still believing in Santa Claus debunked myths, and fairy tales.
I believe in provable science, including evolution. The truth is that mankind has evolved alongside all other species on Earth over the past 8 billion years. We are only lucky enough to have a higher evolved DNA than maggots or any other life form.
There's no god overseeing evolution, only time. Time is immortal, existing before alpha and after omega. Time has effected the life cycles of every atom, lifeform and solar system. Every aspect of our lives, from birth to death is subject to the passing of time. Yet, time is oblivious to the physical world.
Time is the only supremely omnipotent god.
There is no other god with some divine destiny, no heavenly reward for nice children, nor a fiery hell for sinners. No eternal soul, unless it is one's DNA, passed down through generations. That would also encompass beliefs in reincarnation.
So, there you have it all in a nutshell. We only have one life to live, so make the best of it, without second guessing your every move lest you face the consequences in the afterlife. Isn't that a convenient explanation of why some people continue to get away with a sinful lifestyle? "Well, he'll be eternally punished in his afterlife." Really?
How is that any different to telling a child that Santa won't visit if they're bad? A few months is like a lifetime to a child. It's nothing more than conditioning children for religious brainwashing in order to continue controlling you after adulthood. But, it's the same scam to empower the 'chosen ones' to dominate others; lives, while charging 10% of everyone's income. Yet, the Pope defecates just like everyone else. What does he know besides how to ply the game?
Well, that's probably more than your mind can handle for one reply. I'm very happy to answer any of your questions about the realities of life, if you wish.
I can even teach you about the only universal law. But, that's another lesson.

@crispinjulius5032 What's your problem? Youth is your problem, otherwise you wouldn't judge elders so harshly. FYI, prior to his campaign, Joe Biden was a professor at the U of Penn, after being Obam's VP for 8 years. Prior to that, Biden served the people in the Senate for 32 years.
Over the past 8 months, President Biden has created the most progressive infrastructure bill in recent history. His policies are very popular with the majority of US citizens.
You don't know jack about President Biden's mental condition, his experience, nor what it takes to pull our nation out of this pandemic. But, President Biden does and is saving our economy and future prosperity.
Even if Joe Biden only used 1/4 of his brain, he would still be 10 times more intelligent than you.

Freedom Family I've been paying close attention, every day, and have never, ever heard any news outlet claim that COVID has been contained, nor isolated to any area.
Why would I listen to someone named Stew Peters (similar to mountain oysters?), when there's plenty of official and reliable data available?
According to the official CDC records, there were 7.8 COVID deaths per 100K when President Biden took office, but that immediately dropped until Delta (because of the unvaccinated, but they wised up) then the death rate has been dropping steadily to ~.13 deaths per 100K, today.
Scientific data matters. The vaccines are saving people's lives, Despite omicron currently spreading throughout the world.
Cases are peaking, but US deaths are down. There's no other feasible explanation.

Bartender Plus Lies!
Prior to Obama, Bush initiated 'Desert Storm" and his 'Shock and Awe' carpet bombing upon entire cities, such as Baghdad. Thousands of innocent Muslim civilians were massacred, without a second of thought. Attacking the Taliban was only to save face after allowing OBL to escape at Tora Bora. Bush's Iraq war was based upon pure lies of WMDs, which never existed. Apparently you are too young to remember, but where is your outrage and desire for justice against Bush/Cheney, who tanked our own economy in the process?
Understanding how those indiscriminate bombings were only deepening the Muslims' hatred of the USA, Obama stopped that practice and changed the anti Al Qaeda strategy to precision drone strikes with guided missiles. He even ordered our military to not strike while civilians were close enough to become 'collateral casualties'.
Yes, there were intel errors that caused targeting mistakes. Shit happens in a war zone. General Mackenzie just publicly admitted to one of those mistakes, sincerely apologized to the families, and is offering compensation. What more can you reasonably expect? Obviously, you're not a reasonable person.

@DarkfiendsAngel I'm hoping that the House Jan 6th Select Committee outs those treasonous Congressmen and women, who conspired to execute the attempted insurrection.
Trump has hijacked the GOP and has turned it into a crazy-assed GQP party of Q-nuts and politically illiterate anarchists, like MTG, Gosar, Boebert, Jordan, et al.
It's about time that the rest of the GOP, like Cneney and Kissinger, start defending our nation's elections, as well as Constitutional laws and order. Those are the only ones who can purge their party of tRumpism.
Unfortunately, many of those party members are white nationalist racists, who are fearful of the upcoming backlash of 250 years of prejudices against a rising majority of non-whites. Instead of admitting their own faults, they're doubling down and digging their heels in, by passing suppressive voting laws.
tRump has taught the GOP that it's okay to cheat, as long as they can get away with it. We the People must ensure that they NEVER get away with overthrowing the votes of the majority.

Joe WAS happily retired, but saw the need to save our nation from another tRump term. So he solved that problem. Then he solved the vaccination distribution problem, but ppl like you refuse to protect themselves and their families, so here we still are.
After tRump caused a buildup of refugees along the Mexican side of the border, Biden/Harris have been addressing that problem at its source, in the northern triangle countries.
Biden has helped the COVID unemployed to keep their homes and families fed. Small businesses have been subsidized. His infrastructure plans would solve many problems, including retraining our workforce, promoting EVs, sustainable smart grid, etc, etc, etc.
Joe isn't the one dragging his feet. His build back better initiative is the most aggressive in US history.
If you MUST complain, then do it towards the Congressional GQP, who are unanimously blocking all of Biden's bills by filibustering in the Senate, which raises the approval bar to 60%. They are the do nothing Republicants who have absolutely no solutions and stand in the way of those who do.
Get TF off Biden's back.

@pashakdescilly7517 Yeah, I know what anarchist are. They only understand how to think on a small local level and don't understand why there is any need for an hierarchical political structure above that to provide national defense, satellites, broadband, international highways, FDA regulations for clean air, water, and nutritious food, nor universal healthcare. etc etc etc.
I never even mentioned monarchies nor oligarchs, like tRump tries to be.
But, I'm happy to walk down that road with you, too.

@anthonygriffin1958 Not sure I'm understanding your point, Tony.
he tax exemption was originally granted with double intent, IMO
Back in those days, ministers and traveling Evangelists survived on parishioners' donated tithes. Above those living expenses, the remains went to the poor & most needy, as well as towards grandiose chapels to the glory of their god.
(Easy gig for good con men)
But, our Founders rejected the previous impositions of authoritarian British rule by church and state. So, they wisely made it a priority to separate both authorities.
Since the church would have no representation in governing, it couldn't be taxed.
"No taxation, without representation" was the Tea Party Revolution's battle cry.
TBH, the whole religion thing is nothing more than superstitious indoctrination for gaining enough power to fleece the astray sheeple of unlimited blind faith.
They have blindly supported tRump as their 'divine chosen one', because their god sent him to save 'Merica. /smh

@thehorde2908 No, I have truth, patriotism, integrity, and science on my side. Trumptards only know have to regurgitate Trump's outrageous lies against over half of American voters. The polls verify this fact.
All you have is a lying idiot, who is killing his own people and destroying our economy. Over the following 2 months, our own school children and workers will start dropping like flies and your master will become increasing desperate to escape justice.
Perhaps, you should be praying for a cure, if that consoles you. Go on, go to Trump's superspreader rallies and congregate in your churches. IMO, the fewer Trumptards in Nov, the better for our nation.

@Labor_Jones Interesting study. For most of my life, I've heard similar conclusions about alcohol, recreational drugs, ph of water, animal hormones, and many pollutants.
Modern pesticides and fertilizers are exterminating entire species of insect populations, the world's pollinators. Micro polymers are found in our seafood and newborn babies. Who knows the long term consequences of GMO frankenfoods?
IMO, when it comes to food, mankind can't substitute the natural nutrition that we've been evolving to consume over billions of years.
Best to keep our food sources natural, traditional, and grown in a permaculture, and synthetic chemical free environment. Reinventing the wheel for profit is futile.
Thank you for the link. I'll check it out.
I highly recommend the following YT channel:

@hxhdfjifzirstc894 BFS!!
FYI, I'm 70 years old. Been there and have traveled the same path, almost exactly as you've just described.
NEVER made over $40k pa, except for a few good years running my own company, which was reinvested right back into it.
NEVER had my head above water enough to support a family. NEVER had my own children, because I NEVER achieved the 3 bdrm 2 bath home, with the white picket fence and new car in a garage. .NEVER wasted $ on vacations, fancy clothes, nor nonsense.
Paid minimum price for 5 acres of raw land, installed my own septic system, 200 amp supply, and a 4 bdrm mfr'd home for a Thai wife, with 2 sons. Then, she divorced me 2 weeks after I retired, leaving me with the payments.
That ended my dream of building a monolithic concrete dome home, wwhich I had spent 20 years researching, attended building codes and autoCAD classes to design a 3D construction drawing, which only needed an engineer's stamp.
Now, thanks to choosing the lifestyle you've described, I'm a hermit, with no one to inherit my accomplishments, nor to share the knowledge I've acquired though out my life. Fortunately, I'm comfortably retired, living off of my Social Security benefits and an earned lifelong pension, while still driving my deceased older brother's 2000 Ford Taurus, which I purchased from his widow for only $3K.
I just stated the realities of today's job market and you've only destroyed that effort, by advising today's youth how to become losers, instead of how to succeed.
NO! The world has dramatically changed since you and I were teenagers, Pal. There is absolutely no reason for today's youth to endure the hardships that we have been subjected to by making the same bad choices as ours. People like you seem to get some kind of perverse sense of gratification in watching others struggle simply because you have.
I regret not achieving a degree in electronics while my old school mates doubled and tripled my income, for sitting behind a desk.
Now, retired I'm learning analog, digital, electronics, and C++ programming from YT to develop a home Laserium show system, like I used to perform at the London Planetarium, just for amusement, while waiting to die alone.
You're advice is 100% BS.
The American youth of the wealthiest country in the world deserve an education to prepare them for competing in tomorrow's global market, Not yesterday's.
Try applying for a $50k job, without a degree to start a family and you'll soon learn what today's kids are up against.
BTW, today's young women are also earning their own college degrees and wouldn't put up with supporting undereducated losers like you.
Get real and stop discouraging kids against attending college, as if it would be any skin off of your back.
Their higher tax scales afterwards will more than pay for their higher education.
Have you never even attended basic math classes?

@abe8435 You have your opinion and I stand by mine. I'm not talking about facts. I love facts and live by them.
But BS negative predictions of things that remain to be seen are not facts. 'Tisk-f'ing-tisk! The Dems are total failures because they haven't delivered on as big of a transformational agenda within one year against total GQP opposition within the 1st quarter of Biden's term, because it has been negotiated down by their 2 DINOs!" 'Shame, f'ing shame on the Dems because Republican States will misappropriate their funds! Everything they've accomplished is nothing more than futile pissing in the wind with taxpayer revenues.'
'Dems will never achieve their climate change agenda because that bill will never make it past the Senate."
'Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah!" It's all about being negative, sowing discontent throughout our nation, and never being satisfied with winning, because they aren't leading by enough points, literally before the end of the first quarter, so let's all go home. This game sucks. /smh
IMO, and I've been paying close attention to this administration everyday, watching every WH briefing, Congress, and the words of the actual politicians, mostly ignoring opinionated pundits, who are always trying to run ahead of the pack.
I'm simply very disappointed to witness the ruthless abuse being inflicted o an old man, who was happily and comfortably retired, but stood up to defend our nation against a corrupt wannabe dictator and succeeded in defeating that traitor.
President Biden has put together one of the most effective, professional, transparent administrations I have ever seen. They have already saved millions of lives, withdrew our troops from a failed 20 year war that was crippling our economy, and put US back at the head of the International negotiating tables at the UN, NATO, and against our adversaries.
Yet, our insatiable society shows their contempt by sending a viral message around the world of, :"Fuck Joe Biden."
How can he expect to be respected while negotiating with Xi, Iran, N Korea or any other leaders, if he doesn't have the support of his own citizens?
I remember once upon a time when our US leaders were highly respected throughout the entire world. Our nation was the shining example for others to emulate. Now, tRump and his cult are dragging our nation down into the gutter, while a once jealous world climbs on top of the feeding frenzy.
Yeah, I hope you find it all very entertaining, but I find it all disappointing, disgusting, and un-American behavior.
People like you and the tRumptard traitors who defend the attack upon our Capitol are an embarrassment and make me ashamed to even confess being a US citizen.
This is precisely why I've been a hermit for the past 7 years. I reject this misguided society and all of its perverse desires for watching shit shows and bitching about conjured future predictions.
CITIZENS OF AMERICA, ARE YOU NOT YET ENTERTAINED?

@Rhiannon1261 Yes, I have rheumatoid arthritis (triggered by Camel Turkish Jade cigarettes, 20 years ago). Had to quit tobacco cold turkey.
Lungs couldn't handle the accumulated burnt carbon particle from smoking joints, pipes, and bongs. But, they have cleared up since I switched to vaporizing. Highly recommended.
CBD is helpful for pain. But, TBH, it's all about the peace of mind of a nice THC high.
Unfortunately, my tolerance is so elevated that I haven't felt a head rush in several years, even with 80-90% concentrate. That's what the Kahlua is for. 😜

@trentgay3437 Good morning. 😎
Ironically, it was Obama that inspired my interest in politics. Finally, a politician who spoke with moral conviction and decency. Yeah, the white nationalists went ape-shit, didn't they? As their majority is becoming the minority, they're scared of their table being turned on themselves. bwahahahah! as you say.
Full disclosure, I'm a white old fart, myself. But, right-wing white nationalism is a disgraceful scar, as was slavery. I don't blame ppl of color for their resentment, nor BLM for their attempts to peacefully protest, in accordance with the 1st Amendment. But, the white racists won't allow it, so they instigate the mayhem and blame it on blacks.
The struggles between Yin and Yang ebb and flow, from one extreme to the opposite. C'est la vie.

Nice build, Chris.
This summer, I went through nearly the exact same process for my DIY CM4/NVMe carrier & desktop touchscreen project, using exactly the same cables to extend the ports to case cutouts and wished there had been chassis mounted versions. But, alas those were not available on Amazon.
The only significant difference between yours and mine is that my 10" touchscreen is mounted into the case and I'm using a wireless keyboard & mouse, instead.
I also use a tablesaw to make clean cuts in the 3mm sheets of plastic. But since it creates a mess of electrostatic plastic dust everywhere, that would never do inside your lovely studio with video cameras and what not. So, I always take the tablesaw outdoors, well isolated from my maker area, as well. Different strokes for different folks (for different reasons), I always say.
Full disclosure, just in case your wonderful viewers may be wondering (or not), my 10" touchscreen prefers to be positioned horizontally on the desk for me to easily control the size, position, & color of laser imagery, via Touch OSC GUI. Isn't that considerateof him, her, or it? Perhaps I should ask which gender M? Touch prefers to identify as. I always find those matters so confusing.🤗

@mamabear6327 No, YOU are the BAD guy, who is incapable of judging others without your 'chosen one's' blessing. tRump is traitor, who attempted to overthrow the will of We the People and so are his tRumptarded cult members.
Biden was chosen by the undeniable majority of good, decent US voters, who want to restore the integrity of our nation's democracy against a wannabe dictator's Big Lie. Are the majority of US citizens bad, too?
In case you haven't noticed, President Biden has succeeded in rallying the free world against Putin's ruthless, unprovoked attack upon Ukraine. OUR President Biden is well respected among the world's leaders. They laughed and ridiculed in the face of tRump, during his BS, self-glorifying speech at the UN.
President Biden is making Americans proud again.

@Hotdogbruh I don't need to Google, because I lived through it with as draft # 312.
Yes, the government said it was about stopping China's invasion, which was happening before our 'military exercise' began.
The US used agent orange, napalm, carpet bombing, massacred civilians (Mei Lai), which the locals didn't appreciate and hated US because of our ruthless brutality, which was far worse than anything China had done.
Neither did the peace-loving Hippies, who demonstrated against the slaughtering of innocent people. So, the Ohio National Guard opened fire on the Kent State students' peace protest.
That horrified the world, so we pulled out of Viet Nam, with the Embassy folks barely making it out alive, via helicopter evacuation.
You sound like one of the vets, who survived, but still believe the government's BS.

Interesting thread, indeed!
I've just developed my 1st 4 layer PCB with a PCM3168A audio CODEC IC, with thermal layers beneath + a CU heatsink on the opposite side. The IC & SMDs are on the bottom side of the PCB for it to make thermal contact with its aluminum case. But a 2mm X 7mm X 7mm shim is required. for adequate clearance of the other SMDs
So, I've used thermal glue (instead of pads) on both sides of an aluminum shim, instead of CU. It seems to be working Ok, w/o a fan, but haven't made any actual thermal tests, other than the case is getting warm to the touch, near the IC.
Q: is there a significant difference between CU shim + AL case vs AL shim + AL case?
Alternatively, I could add a 5VDC fan, instead of direct contact with the AL case. 🤔
Thanks in advance to those who know the best option.

@garyoakham9723 Reminds me of an old Abbot & Costello skit, where Costello always ends up short changed.
No, it's more like us having a contract (for whatever) and I agree to pay you $1000 per month. So, given the extra income, you borrow $100,000 to finance a yacht. Then, I stop paying you my $1000 because I want to start investing in WS stocks, instead. So, I'm $1000 per month better off and you're still stuck with the yacht to pay off and eventually $100K out of pocket.
Our national debt depends upon tax revenues, if they stop coming in, the the government loses that amount.

@realblacksknowthetruth1519 FYI, The Hermit is not a troll; they are very different. But, I enjoy triggering Trumptards at every opportunity, especially black ones, who don't realize that Trump's father was very active in the KKK and was arrested for openly marching down the streets of NYC in full robe and hood, during a Klan rally. Fred Trump's business partner was a registered Nazi party member. Grand daddy Trump made his fortune off of running whore houses and saloons in mining towns during the gold rush.
Trump even discriminated against blacks by not allowing them to rent in Trump housing projects.
It's all in Wikipedia, if you care to educate yourself about the traitor that you support. Yes, I said traitor, because Trump is making every effort to cheat the election and to execute a coup d'etat on January 20th, to rob Americans of their Constitutional and civil rights. Trump sees himself as king of the world, with his heirs already positioned to inherit his throne and country.
Having said that, I'm very interested to hear why in the world any black patriotic American would support such a scum as Trump.

I disagree with the prediction that there will be less viewers than the polls indicate. IMO, the entire world of allies and adversaries will be tuning into this most consequential debate of our lifetimes.
The futures of Ukraine, NATO, EU, Israel, Russia, China, Taiwan, N Korea, Africa, the Middle East, communities of color, LGBTQ, women's rights, and immigration are all balancing on the 'cutting edge'.
Pundits' predictions are always wrong and out of step with public opinion.

Democrats are such sycophants, eating their own kind. DNC corruption continues to help Republicans to get elected, due to shear voter disillusionment with the process. "What's the point of voting, when our votes don't count?" They simply never learn from their own mistakes.
Meanwhile, Trump is an out of control mob boss, who has thumbed his nose at our Constitution and Congressional oversight. He literally believes that he is above the law and has demonstrated an absolute stranglehold over the Republican party. Trump is an irresponsible bully, who gives everyone gangsta nicknames and brutally punishes anyone who opposes him. He rules by intimidation and everyone around him hates him.
All along, to this very minute, Trump's self-appointed Cabinet (mob) of henchmen are plotting a coup d’état upon our nation. Trump has suggested the elimination of term limits (blatantly illustrated in his recent tweet, with him campaigning into 2048) and his heirs are poised to inherit his crown and kingdom, aka USA. If re-elected, Trump will become our 1st dictator or, as he fantasizes, the biggliest King of the World in history.
Every day, the MSM provide Trump with 24/7 free publicity by broadcasting his propaganda. Therefore, only a media mogul, like Mike Bloomberg, is capable of defeating Trump with millions of dollars’ worth of counter messaging ads. Mike Bloomberg is literally spending a fortune out of his own pocket to save our nation from a lying, cheating, corrupt traitor. This also means that Mike won't be pulled off his platform by some special interest or PAC donations. His own words are his only bond.
BTW, Bloomberg's anti-Trump ads will run up until the November election, even if he is not the Dems' nominee. IOW, those ads benefit all Dem candidates. How generous is that? They should be thanking Mike, instead of demonizing him with accusations of him trying to buy the election. He's only buying ads, just as others are. He is running upon his own integrity. May the best candidate win the nomination and election. Furthermore, Bloomberg only entered the race because none of the field has a chance in hell of defeating Trump (including Sanders). Even after giving his rivals a 3-month head start and a 4-state handicap, Bloomberg's poll numbers are skyrocketing. IMO, Mike Bloomberg is our only hope of saving our democratic republic against Trump's tyranny.
We are supposed to be One Nation, Indivisible, of the People, by the People, and for the People. Please support our nation's only hope for survival. 🙏

@leveljoe That's precisely why SCOTUS is considering that loophole in this case.
Why is it illegal to remove the serial #/ Because when that weapon is left behind at a crime scene (by it's dead gang banger felony owner), it can't be traced back to the straw seller, who bypassed the background checks and cooling off wait period.
Why does anyone need a gun that can't be traced? In order to kill, without being traced by law enforcement.
Why does anyone need to purchase a lethal weapon? To commit premeditated murder.
Furthermore, the 2nd amendment was written by our Forefathers, shortly after the Revolutionary war, to allow pioneers to own flintlocks and muskets in order to form civilian militias to defend their families and colonies against foreign monarchical rule, which had confiscated those weapons to maintain power. That was prior to even having a US nation, with a regulated trained military. Now that our nation has the most powerful military in the world, this private militias are nothing more than wannabe anarchists like those who stormed our Capitol to overthrow Congress and our fair 2020 election.
How many more innocent school children must be murdered by gun violence, before you gun heads woke TF up to realize that YOU are the cause?

I really liked the VIM3, especially it's formfactor with all the connectors along one side to reduce cable clutter. Very nicely designed, with lots of forethought, that is often neglected in other SBCs, like having a case. Unfortunately, I had to return it, because of an HDMI problem. Then, it was lost during the return shipping. 😢
IMHO, RPi's community support is difficult to beat. but barring the CM4, if advanced features like AI are required, it's a tossup between Khadas and Nvidia.

Christopher, please don't blame yourself for having less viewers. Your content is fantastic and your delivery is perfect.
IMO, people are simply tired of the pandemic and sitting at home watching YT, especially with all of the political rhetoric being pushed onto their monitors. YT algorithms are driving people away from their (our) MSM addictions.
I'm avoiding the rhetorical channels nowadays and watching more DIY homebuilders and exotic adventure channels, instead. But, you are always at the top of my watch list.
Despite inflation and the risks of COVID exposure, the USA is overwhelmed with 4th of July travelers this weekend. Suppliers can't meet the consumers' demand for more junk. So, now folks are hoarding it.
As you've probably noticed, Yanks have become very divided politically, as we're entering into a crucial midterm election season. We simply can't look away from the campaign brawls an wait in hopes of an indictment against tRump. Sunday morning is when all of the MSM political pundits flood the interweb thingy with their targeted rhetoric.
Apparently you're the most highly subscribed tech channel on YT and rightly so, because of the meticulous care you put into every episode. I believe that your audiences are being divided among too many competing channels. Your channel will still be standing long after theirs have failed.
Must keep a 'stiff upper lip', my fine British professor. That's 'the ticket'. Pleasing the world is not an easy task. If you are pleased with your content, then what remains for others to criticize? 😎

What an amazing coincidence, Chris!
I'm using a Teensy 4.1 synth to generate complex Lissajous waveforms, with 5 outputs; XYRGB. Just designed my 1st SMD PCB in Kicad, progressing from the previous bread board prototypes... Same process of sourcing parts from schematics, arranging them onto a board, then soldering them into a functional device.
But, here's the kicker. I also need to feed my XYRGB into a secondary monitor, located at the control desk, to preview and set up imagery, prior to projecting them from the laser projectors.
Been looking for an HDMI solution for ages, but have only found monochrome USB oscilloscope apps.
The PICOmite VGA looks like a simple, but potential alternative, IF Basic on the PICOmite can keep up with 40K points per sec. 🤔

@scam Yeah, yeah , yeah. Now, YOU are preaching to the choir. FYI, in the USA, we have a Constitution that provides both, freedom OF religion, as well as freedom FROM religion. It cuts both ways, so you have no more right to interfere with their beliefs on their 'turf' than they have with yours. I'm not saying 'ours' simply because I want nothing to do with your bigotry any more than theirs.
You simply don't belong on this site, stirring your shit to piss off these people, especially during their most holy dy of worship.
Now, piss off and leave these people alone. There's far more to this community than their fairy tales, such as brotherly love, social support, and charity. Frankly, I don't need any of it, but millions do.
End of conversation. Just go away.

@gerralld5211 I'm no longer religious, but to answer your question, according to the bible, Jesus was born a Jew. Therefore, he believed in a single god, named Jehovah.
But, Christians believe that an angel impregnated his mother, Mary. Therefore, Jesus was 1/2 the son of a human mother and 1/2 the son of Jehovah.
Personally, I'm much happier being free of omnipotent beings spying on my every move and inner thoughts. I live only one life and make the best of it, because it is unique and precious. No Heaven, no Hell, no ghosts, no spirits, no angels, no demons, no soul, no different than any other species (questionably more highly evolved). Oh yeah, evolution is real and human beings will most likely destroy the earth, not some divine induced battle of Armageddon.
There you have it, the theological myth, the reality of 8 billion years, and our inevitable future, in a nutshell.
The answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything is not 42 (ref: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy). IMO, there is only the universal law of yin and yang, the ebbs and flows of the struggles between opposing forces. It is evident in everything from atomic particles to the gravitational forces of the universe.
Hmm, isn't the battle of Armageddon supposed to be the final battle between good and evil, heaven and hell, god and satan? You see, yin and yang exist in everything.
:-)

@AT-nq6cu BS! Manchin represents $5Mil worth of a coal conglomerate, called Enersystem, which returns $1/2 million every year.
Sinema ran her campaign on an aggressive anti-climate change agenda. She betrayed her constituents by allowing herself to be bribed by big pharma.
yes, the DoJ needs to do its job of prosecuting tRump's mob. but, that doesn't make the imminent destruction of our plant any less important.
You simply don't get it, do you? the world's forests are on fire, increasingly severe super storm events, snow tornadoes in December, lakes and public water reservoirs drying up, crop failures, ice caps melting, coastal shores eroding an disappearing, oceans polluted with micro-polymers, undrinkable water.
But, you're seriously defending the mindless status quo that is the cause of the planet's crises?

@AT-nq6cu Hel~lo. I'm not the average person and that's exactly why I choose to be a hermit, instead of being a participant of your madness.
I live by my own standards of morality and mindful behavior, not yours nor this misguided, narcissistic, money-minded society of sheeple.
I'm here to tell people the truth, exactly as I see it and don't give a damn whether anyone else agrees.
It's a hermit kind of thing, probably beyond your comprehension.
Truth is what it its and hurts no one. What belief system are you referring to? I've examined many belief systems from many different cultures, have you? Now, I'm very certain about my own beliefs, which is that mankind is no different than any other animal that has been evolving over the past 8 billion years. That's a scientific fact, Jack.
Show me a soul or a divine god and I will introduce you to my immortal, omnipotent, god, named Father Time. You can't deny that it has controlled every second of every lifeform's existence and always will. Time tells me exactly what I need to do and when. Ignoring time will inevitably result in failure.
Need I preach more truth to you?
It is past TIME for humanity to change it's irresponsible behavior, because the backlash is accelerating over TIME, much faster than scientists have predicted over the previous decades. That's 7 references to TIME within only one sentence. Get it?
You have no idea where I'm coming from, do you? Yet, you presume to know me. 😎

@XxGreatestyouknoWxX JFC! You need to grow up, Mr Taint. You don't know shit from shinola about Jen Psaki, her duties, nor about President Biden's agenda. So, I'll help you out, with a few facts, Kid.
1: Demons, Satan, and Hell only exist within your little brainwashed mind, just like Angels, God, and Heaven. You have no immortal soul, there is no afterlife, no judgement day, no invisible all-seeing Santa Claus watching your every move nor judging your every thought, if you ever have one. IOW, you only get one shot at life, so live each day with mindfulness, self-respect, and honor. All people are animals and have been evolving together for over 8 billion years. The only infinite, omnipotent god is time.
2: The Biden/Harris administration were voted into power by the 81 million voter majority, just as our democracy is supposed to work. Biden was confirmed by a 306 majority of electoral college votes, just as our republic is supposed to function.
3: Although the Biden/Harris campaign ticket was based upon Democrats' agenda, now that the divisive election is over, the Executive ranch of the Federal Government serves the nation as a whole, neither representing nor serving any one state nor is the POTUS supposed to be politically partisan. Nevertheless tRump thought it was all about US defeating THEM, like a team sport. tRump never understood even the principles of governance for the people. He was/is nothing more than a two bit con man, drunk on his own addiction for more power.
Jen Psaki is responsible for ensuring that accurate messaging is being provided to the news media outlets. Several right wing reporters in the WH briefings are pushing false narratives, within their questions. Instead of answering a false narrative, Jen politely puts them back on track. She is not there to debate pros vs cons. She's the authority on this administration's objectives and why.
4: I see that your interests lie in martial arts and kids stuff, but nothing too challenging to feed a healthy mind. There are many honest people in the world, simply trying their best to do good honest jobs. Jen Psaki and President Biden are those kind of people. They deserve respect, because they have devoted their lives to serving our nation with honor and with as much transparency as their positions can allow.
That's why I am offended and triggered by punks like you, who think that you can bitch slap and amazing woman, who is the official spokesperson for the most powerful man in the free world and mature enough to be your mother.
Who TF do you think you are, Punk? What has your puny little brain accomplished that justifies such arrogance?

@deezknuts07 Thank you for making your valid points. Yeah, arguing with brainwashed, TDS infected tRumptards is extremely frustrating. But, isn't the primary point to defend our nation against their misinformation? Our nation need more people like you, who are willing to engage these anarchist traitors.
Whenever they pull to the extreme right, we must pull harder to the left, just to keep our leaders midstream moderates, who are willing to compromise, instead of blowing up the legislative process with obstruction.
Yeah, it's a nasty job, but someone has to do it. Sometimes I feel like the Lone Ranger or Tom Cruise in The Samurai, desperately trying to defend himself against an army.
Please keep doing your good work.🙏

Instead of fear mongering against Bloomberg's wealth, voters should embrace his campaign and a least do some research before trashing an honorable man for defending our nation from Trump's tyranny.
Sir (Royal knight) Michael Bloomberg is willing to take a $1Billion hit on his personal wealth purely out of patriotism for our Democracy. He has done the same for the environment, climate change, disease control, poverty, education, and healthcare. He is a respectful, professional businessman, who earned his wealth honestly, without treading upon others to get there. In fact Bloomberg wants to raise taxes on the 1%, plus repeal Citizens United and eliminate political corruption by special interest groups.
Bloomberg does not use his ads to trash talk against his Dem rivals and they should show him the same respect. All of his ads are anti-Trump, which helps all the other Dem campaigns for free. He has given his rivals a 3 month head start and a four state handicap. So, how could he possibly be more fair?
Bloomberg is not buying votes, but only ads from the MSM, just like the other campaigns. But, out of decency, he also doesn't want to ask less fortunate people for campaign donations. He will earn votes, based upon his personal integrity and his ability to defeat Trump, because the other Dems will fall short of that mark.
So, please stop trying to destroy our best hope for saving our nation from Trump's corrupt, lying, cheating reelection campaign!

IMO, Bannon is a tough character and loves all the attention. I predict that he will boldly stroll into court on Monday. His lawyer(s) might get a stay on judgement, under the guise of needing time to collect documents. On the other hand, Bannon's arrogance might offend the judge which will only land him in jail.
But, that won't bother Bannon, because he is already mentally prepared to do the year of jail time, so he's only serving the sentence a little sooner.
TBH, I don't see Bannon ratting out 'the don'. Mafioso godfathers like tRump always get their revenge. The Republicant party is learning that the hard way, as tRump stabs them all in the back, after he has used and abused them.
Now that tRump has divided the GOP/GQP into a third 'Freedom(?)' party, neither are left with any integrity and the Dems will rule Congress for a generation, provided that tRump is prosecuted, the pandemic is over, and that Biden's BBB agenda gains sufficient traction that people are feeling better about a brighter future with lots of good paying jobs. We can only hope.
On the other hand, the progressive infrastructure bill will get gutted before making it through the Senate, so everyone is pissed at the Dems and red states' voter suppression laws succeed in letting their election officials cheat during the midterms, handing their Republican candidates the majority in Congress. Since the Grim Reaper has been deliberately abusing the filibuster, Dems will have eliminated it to push their agenda, so the GQP lunatics will be freely running the people's asylum.
Meanwhile, tRump might incite a Civil war with his cult of rag-tag tRumptarded militia of radical, white nationalists, domestic terrorists, and obedient anarchists.
A more virulent strain of wild COVID jumps from deer to humans and kicks the all the RNA vaccines' asses and kills half the human race.
China starts a war over Taiwan and finishes off the other half. So, we're all screwed.
On the other hand, without humans, there are no more greenhouse gas emissions, planet Earth survives and Mother Nature is one happy mama.
Take your pick, Folks. 😎

@MrTrilbe Umm... because they are marketing to a Western world, where most common language is English. Yes, I know that Khadas is a Chinese company, who goes to great lengths to provide English documentation. Great company.
I was actually referring to many Chinese companies, not just SBC mfrs, who neglect 1/2 the needs of the same customers they hope to attract, i.e. fully functional software and documentation that is legible.
Never needed to check out the Chinese RPi documentation and wouldn't understand 1 symbol if I did.
The bottom line is that, if a company's goal is to successfully penetrate foreign markets, then they should be able to effectively communicate in those local languages, whether in English, Arabic, or whatever.
Personally, I have absolutely no plans to learn Mandarin, but have lots of project goals.

Tulsi eloquently speaks truth and wisdom with power and grace. Her message is sensible and sound. Her platform has broad support. That's exactly the kind of leader this country needs. But, her voice is only one of many on the debate stage. There's no point in Democrats cutting each other up during the primaries. The candidate that demonstrates the courage to engage and challenge Trump will rise above the rest.
Come on, Tulsi. Jump on Twitter and slap him around in front of the world, on his own turf. Shock the nation with such shear audacity. He's a wide open target for ridicule. Steal his spotlight and he will whine and cry like the spoiled brat he is. 'Ooh, Tulsi says such bad things about me. Boo hoo hoo. She's such a mean person.'
Trump is intellectually ill equipped to compete against a strong, well-spoken, attractive, charming woman, especially one with several years of military service and Congressional experience. Tulsi could chew him up and spit him out for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. That's the kind of candidate most voters are looking for.
So, Tulsi, what are you waiting for? Go on, beat Trump at his own attention-gaining game. Have some fun, publicly humiliating the bully. Give the press a good ole knock down, drag (him) out fight to broadcast over national TV. You can steal his exposure for the whole year with a daily dose of free counter-tweets.😎

Average American teens have only 3 choices:
1) Stay with parents on unlivable minimum wages,
2) begin adulthood from under a mountain of crippling student loan debt, or
3) survive on the streets as prostitutes or drug dealers.
Taxpayers have 2 options:
1) Pay for temporary higher education to enable young folks to become respectable members of society, or
2} Pay for the life long incarceration of unemployable repeat felons.
On the other hand, privileged elite teens have free rides to unlimited wealth,, served to them on silver platters by their parents, including higher education in ivy league universities, free housing, free EVs, and free tax write offs from corrupt, Republicant politicians.

Crus Harold Umm... The victim is the person who was shot and she's not complaining to anyone about anything.
FYI; There are different kinds of producers on a film production. Executive Producers (Baldwin) simply pay the costs of creating a film, but usually take a back seat to the production company, who they hire to manage the wardrobe, props, cameras, lighting, facilities, editing, etc. and the specialized crew members within those departments, so they have a Production Manager, Film Director, Lighting Director, Script Writer(s), etc. The Production Manager is responsible for whatever happens on set, including whatever caused this accident.
As an actor, Alec's responsibility was to do and say whatever they said, when they said, "Action."

For the past 8 years, I have been debunking MAGA's lies in these comments.
For the past 3 years, I have been defending Biden's administration and the ruthless racial, homophobic, and personal attacks against KJP, underneath her briefings. Often, I was asked, "Who is paying you to defend Biden?"
Yesterday, I did the same on behalf of the MSNBC panel, covering the RNC's convention, against the mob of MAGA trolls, by asking them, " Who is paying you to betray our nation?"
To my dismay, MSNBC censured my comments and blocked me from continuing.
How am I supposed to actively oppose Project 2025 and a wannabe dictator, who is leading in the polls?

@eduardopolack3247 The USA didn't even exist in 1776!!! Therefore, there was no Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, National Guard, nor Border Patrol... not even a Space Force. I think that we have our national defense systems well covered. So, why does the USA still need a bunch of small, unorganized, independent, local, self-appointed, self-righteous militias running around with assault rifles?

@budskrilla2u133 Oh yes, blame it on the crooked MSM, not the mob. Mexico's pres said Trump could go F himself with regards to paying for the wall. Trump is pulling funds from our military bases to pay for his stupid wall. That is called misappropriation of government funding, which is granted by the Congress.
"But, someone else is just as guilty." is the defense of a criminal and demonstrates no inner moral core. It's nothing more than a race to become the lowest of low-lifes.
Insurance companies took advantage of ACA and scalped consumers. Now, they are afraid of being pushed out of the market and have become more reasonable. But, I'd take a closer look at my policy, if I were you.
Automation is replacing workers and online shopping is replacing mom & pop shops. China has taken over manufacturing. Yet, you actually believe everyone else is suffering from their own poor choices. Well, aren't you the privileged one? You must be very proud of yourself.
I'm doing fine, thank you very much. I'm very comfortable living on Social Security and a modest pension. Medicare is only $100 per month, but I don't use it. Life is good while vaping 95% THC. But, who gives a damn about a hermit? For that matter, who does The Hermit give a damn about?
Our Nation! Tulsi2020!

@expletivedeleted The Hunter Biden BS was debunked as Russian propaganda, solely to keep tRump in office. That's your Deep State conspiracy source.
tRump's mafioso family are cheap knockoffs of The Godfather movies. His mob are being investigated, prosecuted, and imprisoned as each one rats the others out. Ivanka won't defend Daddy for very long.
tRump does nothing but shoot off his mouth with divisive right wing conspiracy rhetoric, offending the majority of patriotic US voters, that's why they turned out on record numbers to kick his ass out of the WH.
Only a traitor would still support a corrupt, pathological liar like tRump. He has hijacked the GOP and turned it into a treasonous GQP, who condones the Jan 6th insurrection.
tRump only knows how to con people out of their money, use them for political advantage, then destroy them once they have nothing more to give.
He conned his online donors out of $6 million and is still taking their money to support his stupid Cyber Ninja 'forensic' audits.
Pull your head out of his posterior and start acting like a truly patriotic US citizen, supporting fair elections, the will of the democratic majority, and the leadership they have chosen.
If you can't do that, then just STFU!

@kirstinalphabet796 Thank you for asking. BTW, I just censored my own previous harsh replies to you. Clearly we have both assumed to much about each other. For that, I apologize.
Good question. My previous lengthy reply disappeared from my view, even after refreshing the page.
Yet, when I just checked the history of my comments, it magically reappeared.
Don't know whether you read it, which mentioned having "Kahlua
in my morning cofee..." as part of my rant. But, am interested to know, as well as whether it is still visible to others, if you would please clarify..
Saw your notification and am replying from inside that drop-down, but that comment isn't visible.
"Ver-ry strange, my dear Watson"
I have seen this behavior before.
I often engage against MAGA trolls, who swarm beneath Biden videos to inject their poisonous barbs that disgrace our nation in front of the world.
Sometimes they get butthurt and report me to censure my comments.
I have done likewise, the offender's comment disappears, only to return later. That would be YT's SOP and MAGA doing the censoring.
Please vote blue, no matter who, to rid our lives of these vermin.
Garland's inept cowardice has only enabled 'loyalists' to sabotage our Congress

I LOVE MY LATTEPANDA 3 DELTA AND ITS BEAUTIFUL CASE!! Mint is very intuitive and smooth as silk. The startup was as easy as imaging a RPi uSD, which was a pleasant surprise, considering every time I have previously strayed from that paved road, deep regrets soon followed. But, not this time. Most of my required apps were in the Software Manager, which made setup a breeze.
It's performance and YT videos on Firefox blows away my higher priced mini PC, as well as the old Surface Pro II. No more buffering.
I've been wanting to get away from Windows for years and finally, this will be my daily driver.
"GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY, I'M FREE AT LAST!!"
Thank you so much, Chris for this great review. You've made an old geezer very happy. (rut-roh, no more smiley faces with 'Win + .' How can I live?) 🙂 Well, look at what I just found!

Why did tRump do everything under the sun to divide our nation and overthrow the election? Because, he knew that he would be prosecuted for this corrupt behavior.
"What will I do if Biden wins the election, move to another country?" - tRump during one of his rallies, just before the election. He knew that he was about to lose his BS 'executive immunity'.
BTW, Chuck Todd's reporting didn't persuade voters nearly as much as tRump's irresponsible behavior and rhetoric. For five years, he pounded his drum against the majority of voters, "The radical left wing Democrats only want to defund our police, burn our cities, and destroy our nation."
Then, he invented the Big Lie of being cheated, BS election fraud, BS law suits, BS audits, attempted a BS coup with the DoJ, then incited the insurrection upon our Capitol. tRump and his cult are traitors against our democracy.
Joe Biden foresaw what tRump was attempting and knew the other candidates wouldn't stand a chance against tRump's lies and cheating. That's the only reason he came out of retirement; to save our nation from another disastrous 4 years of idiotic tRumpism. Thankfully, Biden succeeded and our nation is back on track.

@lora8706 There's nothing wrong with people from humble beginnings earning college degrees and becoming successful. Kamala isn't ACTING poor, she is HELPING the poor, because she still relates with average people and remembers what it feels like.
She has worked hard, earned the highest college degrees, and played her cards right to get where she is. THAT is the perfect example of achieving the 'American dream' and should be respected for it, not criticized out of jealousy.
She owes no one any of it. But, as a Congresswoman, VP, and POTUS she has the power to negotiate income tax rates and to distribute those tax revenues more equitably towards the more needy, instead of billionaire tax loopholes wasted on joy rides into space.
What is your problem with that?
History? Without learning history, no one would remember Hitler and realize that tRump is no different and we would only repeat the same mistakes. You want Native Americans and people of color to forget their historical heritage and struggles?

As a maker, I'm a big fan of CM4. It's the minimal computing/processing hardware for any project, so it's the least expensive to mfr.
As a bonus, CM4 uses the stable, well documented RPi OS (w/community support), which is compatible with most peripheral devices, GPIOs, and free software. Great brains at the core for any project.
The project defines the connectivity and storage requirements, so the CM4 can be paired with any customized 3rd party carrier board; no more, no less than required. Competition = lowest price for custom connectivity.
IMHO, this is the ideal form factor for hardware manufacturers to rally around. The industry is already primed, with lots of carrier configurations, but the only missing piece is the CM4 (PCIe4 performance for NVMe SSDs would be a nice upgrade for the CM5).
NVidia has the same idea for their high end AI SOMs, because it simply has the advantage of versatility.
So, why not use that same configuration and connector for other processors' SOM, like RISC-V? Simply plug any SOM into any carrier board. There are already CM4 clones on the market.
Yeah, in the real world, who could ever herd a bunch of competitive cats to agree on an SOM connector, eh? 😎

I only saw moderators allowing a free for all gang banging of Bloomberg. At one point, I counted 4 attacks against him by 4 rivals, without allowing Mike to defend himself. I saw yet another disgracefully biased MSNBC sham of a debate.
I saw a decent man, who fully understands that he can not present himself to Democrats as being a wealth-spoiled bully, punching down on others, as Trump does. Mike went into that debate with the mindset that he would focus his attacks on Trump, not the other Dem candidates... simply because that's the type of team leader he is.
Warren's challenge for Bloomberg to publicly nullify NDA contracts between multiple employees and parties, was too ridiculous to even consider during a public debate and Mike gave a thoughtful, appropriate, and honest answer. But, that was no different than her cheap shot open mic attack on Bernie after the previous debate.
Mike Bloomberg knew full well that he was walking on stage to be ravaged by a pack of blood thirsty wolves. But, IMO, he also thought he would be granted an equal opportunity and time to defend himself. It will be interesting to see how Mr Bloomberg will adjust his class 'act' to remain competitive within such a harsh, unruly competition. I'm very confident that he will prevail, regardless of the conditions. But, everyone should understand, he tried to play nice.

Great test results. Yes, Noctua fans are more expensive and do go overboard on their packaging, but I'm still a fan of theirs.🙄 Why jeopardize project over a few dollars after investing six month's worth of labor? What is the value of one's time and satisfaction from making the best .............?
The fan on my year old miniPC has been bothering me from day one of it's arrival. Not only the whirring, but an additional vibration like a dirty bearing. Hoped that it would run smoother with usage. Not! Looked at replacing it with one of my Noctua fans, but the original is a small centrifugal blower type. Still, it's gotta go before I lose any more of my limited sanity.
Stanley the knife, Mr Scissors, & Mr Screwdriver... hmm. I think I'm seeing a trend forming, Chris. Don't you need more exposure to Ms Socket, Sally Sidecutter, or that hot little Gretta Gluegun for PC? 😎

tRump already knows that his campaign is doomed to failure, out of money, out of donors, out of grifts, and out of his f'ing mind.
His unpaid 2020 venue bills have come back to haunt his campaign, so he can only book smaller venues.
Chutkan is exposing his treasonous criminal behavior, leading up to 1/6/2020, which will be the final nail in his campaign's coffin, as well as ending his life-long evasion of justice.
Mafioso Don, the 2-bit con is going down hard, just like his idol Al Capone.

No. The dad looks, talks, and behaves more like a drunk, instead of a pot head. Pot heads are not known for condoning murders, homophobia, nor any of the behavior on display in this video.
You ass-u-me far too much, without any basis in factual evidence.
You clearly have no understanding of what being 'high' is nor means. I've been a pot head for 50 years, don't believe in violence, have a clean criminal record, have paid my dues and am retired, living on the fruits of my labors.
Don't talk shit against people who choose marijuana over alcohol. We're far better human beings than drunks.

Now that YT has restored my account after being Cancelled for over 5 months, this is my first comment:
I am truly appalled by the ruthless comments below. President Biden has been making very effort to reach across the isle to unite our nation after 5 years of hate filled divisive rhetoric from a wannabe dictator.
President Biden doesn't rant and rave against Republicans, who literally want to destroy our government. He welcomes and invites everyone's opinions, whether or not they agree with his goals.
Biden still believes in civil intellectual debates between two parties and compromising to form more perfect solutions, because all sides have been considered. This is how our Founding Fathers intended this United States to function.
The majority of Patriotic Americans (>81 million voters) agree. If you folks would stop your immature cat calling long enough to listen to the man, you might develop some respect for him and his office of POTUS. President Biden is our leader, now; not some arrogant mob boss demeaning others with gangsta names and backstabbing everyone who has a backbone.
This is NOT being done for your entertainment. This is our leader speaking to everyone, including the nation and whole world. Who are you to drag him down with petty adolescent ridicule and ignorant misinformation?
Biden and Congressional Democrats have just pushed through a $1.9T bill that puts significant cash into people's pockets for delinquent bills, groceries, vaccinations, and small businesses. That money will be injected directly into our economy, paying the wages of front line workers in stores, keeping businesses running. They are saving your sorry asses, in spite of every single Republican opposing the bill.
On the other hand, in 2019 Trump and Republicans passed a $2T tax cut for the top 2%, which only went into Wall Street, helping no one living on a working wage.
SHAME ON YOU ALL!!! YOU ARE AN EMBARRASSMENT TO OUR NATION, WITNESSED BY THE REST OF THE WORLD!!!

@youtuber6185 Yes, all life constantly ebbs and flows between the opposing forces of Yin and Yang. IMO, this is the only universal law that encompances everything, even inanimate objects, such as guns or money. Both can be used for various degrees of good or bad.
I'm very familiar with the Dharma's teachings about everyone's suffering. Don't understand your reference regarding Jesus. I believe that Jesus learned about enlightenment and non violence from the Hindus, when he disappeared from biblical records, until he returned to minister to his disciples.
My role in life and the point of it are very clear. But, that has nothing to do with being required to participate within or be victimized by society. This is why many gurus and The Hermit remove ourselves from it to live independently in seclusion.
I'm communicating with you and on YouTube, entirely for my own amusement. I could just as easily never subject myself to society nor any of its trappings.
But, I prefer to correct misguided thought processes, if it can be done with mutual respect. On the other hand, I've also been known to return nastiness in equal proportions. Consider it my Yin/Yang balancing act.🙏

@youtuber6185 Yes. And, I totally agree. If your brother is like me, then his struggles are probably due to not accepting the injustices of society. Now that I'm out of that rat race, I'm much happier. Then, there came the loneliness of not having a companion. On the other hand, I've already lived with 10 different women from 4 different cultures. Eventually, I figured out that all of them had the same thing wrong with them...Me.
But, now I've gone beyond all of that and enjoy my own company, without all of the hassles of pleasing anyone but myself. For example, it's getting daylight and I have had no sleep. So, I will sleep whenever I want for as long as I want and no one has been nagging me to come to bed, nor will anyone wake me up to cook breakfast.
I am 100% independent, self sufficient, comfortable, and free from any external pressures whatsoever. If I were unhappy, who could I blame but myself?
Regret? Sure anyone who doesn't neither recognises nor admits their own mistakes. So, how could they grow?
I'm enjoying these deep waters.😎

@SlyFan-mp8dc Thanks to tRump's gaslighting and downplaying the severity of COVID, plus his misinformation about social distancing, wearing masks, and hosting super spreader rallies the virus was running rampant throughout our nation before Biden even stepped into the Oval office.
Thanks to Biden's effective rollout of the vaccinations (including cooperative production across mfrs, transportation, refrigeration facilities, and qualified vaccinators) 2 million doses were administrated every day, as long as ppl were willing to get their jabs.
But, because of tRump's politicization and bypassing FDA approvals, many are still refusing.
Still, thanks to Biden being forced to mandate Fed employees and the private sector following suit, over 70% have have been vaccinated and we are seeing herd immunity kick in and the pandemic is ending, despite the right's resistance and red states killing their own people.
Therefore, IMO over 1/2 of those deaths under Biden's watch are still tRump's fault.
The Afghan withdrawal was initiated by tRump and was NEVER going to be a pretty sight. That's why tRump scheduled it after the election for Biden to deal with. Nevertheless, 125,000 lives were saved during the 3 week the evacuation. Yes, one suicide bomber slipped past the Taliban perimeter, killing a dozen troops at Abbey Gate. But those troops and US citizens were warned of the imminent danger and the gate was still open to allow British troops to enter with the citizens they were escorting in.
For perspective, during any 3 weeks an average of 1800 US citizens shoot each other with guns, here in their own neighborhoods.
The most important thing is that we are out of the failed 20 year war and it's crippling costs to our economy and lives.
If not for the $1.7Trillion stimulus from Biden's American Rescue Plan, families would be living in the streets, and the entire nation would be far worse off, as can be seen throughout the rest of the world. Instead, we are recovering the fastest. The pandemic nightmares will be over within a few months.
For all of these FACTS our nation should be very grateful for President Biden's excellent leadership.

@jaredburgess8381 Excellent analysis. Simple words, bumper sticker slogans, and simplistic solutions for complex issues. Most Trumptards are white, under educated, and religious. IOW, scared of becoming a racial minority (get-back's a MF), ignorant of scientific data (climate change & evolution), and still believe in myths, fairy tales, and some invisible, undetectable ghost that listens to and answers every one of their prayers.
These people don't have a clue about governing nor what MAGA even involves. They think that it is all about showing strength, being the world's greatest bully, and caring for no one but themselves.
These people are the true enemies of our nation, literally turning it into another shit hole country, just like other fascist authoritarian dictatorships.

My hallucinogenic experiences have always been reflections within my own mind. IMO, these drugs are simply making new synaptic connections into unexplored regions of the brain, places where the imagination has no bounds. So it freely conjures up whatever the subconscious desires, cultural conditioning, and fears it chooses. Mind expanding? You betcha.
Although I'm 70, I miss 'Cid and would jump for the opportunity of trying DMT, within a safe, controlled environment, of course. But, with fentanyl in so many of today's street drugs, I just stick to vaping THC.

@Bomber_Boi Open borders? No one is. But, humane treatment for refugees seeking asylum? Yes.
Government funded, standardized education for underprivileged kids? Absolutely! That's the only path out of the poverty cycle. Try it sometime.
Abolish all police? BFS, Trumptard rhetoric! Hold police accountable for excessive force and racially motivated killings of blacks. You betcha!
No more beef? Wouldn't hurt anyone, but could save the earth's rainforests, lungs of the world. I voluntarily stopped eating beef in 1980, when I saw the Amazon destruction.
Zero air travel? Okay, admittedly that's unrealistic. But, biofuel could be used instead, along with booking improvements to minimize 'empty' flights.
Banning fossil fuels? ASAP! At least wherever possible, including soil polluting fertilizers.
ETC? 100%!
?? That's Trump's plan.
Speaking of Trump's 'plan', tell me one single policy that benefits the environment and/or mitigates climate change. Tell my one thing that YOU are prepared to do about it....ZZZ, zzz, ... <crickets>

Is your belief based upon any intel, situational facts, or the Pentagon's military or CIA recommendations? You think that they are idiots, who took on such a colossal humanitarian mission to evacuate hundreds of thousands of US, Afghan, and International allies to save them and their families from beheadings?
no one dreamed that the Afghan government would flee, leaving their US trained military with no command structure. No one could have foreseen their military defecting to the Taliban over night.
But, President Biden quickly adapted the plan to negotiate a ceasefire with the Taliban and have them assist with airport perimeter security for crowd control. that stopped the panicking Afghan civilians from flooding onto the runway and climbing all over the cargo planes during takeoff, within 24 hours.
yeah, unfortunately one suicide bomber slipped past the Taliban's perimeter and killed 13 of our troops, while performing their duty at the gate, even though warnings had been issued of an imminent ISIS attack in that area. They stood their ground.
President Biden retaliated within 24 hours with a drone strike against 2 ISIS operatives. then within a few more days, another drone preemptively eliminated an ISIS vehicle full of explosives heading towards the airport. ISIS retaliated with a missile attack upon the airport, but sophisticated US anti missile weaponry had been pre-staged and none of the 5 ISIS missiles reached their targets.
But, the evacuations kept on schedule, without any delays.
Before completing their mission, the US military destroyed Taliban captured fighter jets, helicopters, heavy artillery. then, they departed without any further issues.
With the exception of one suicide bomber, it was a very well planned and successful mission, IMO. Old man, President Biden has proven that he is a very effective Commander in Chief.
But, beyond Kabul, President Biden succeeded in pulling favors from 15 allied nations to provide temporary facilities for the 120,000 evacuees, including food, sanitation, shelter, beds, and SIV processing assistance. Longer term accommodations are being provided at several US military bases.
everything has been well planned and progressing smoothly.
that's all because o President Biden's careful, considerate, effective planning.
Now, how many of those things did you even consider, before making such harsh judgements against our POTUS, ignorantly accusing him of having no plan and a sloppy execution?
BTW, you expectation of evacuating every single soul is impossible. some didn't respond to communication attempts; others refused to leave; Steve Miller had refused to process SIVs for 2 years. IOW, tRump had no intentions of saving the lives of ANY Afghan contractors.
President Biden obtained a promise from the Taliban to allow US citizens to leave Afghanistan whenever they wish. What more can you reasonably expect? A perfect world in the middle of a war zone?

I hope that Nikki Haley never makes it to the Oval Office. She's obviously a loose lipped warmonger that would be a national security risk to our nation. The last thing our country needs is someone fanning the flames with volatile rhetoric against nuclear powered dictators, like Putin, Kim, & Xi.
Remember tRump's tariff war against China? Now, taxpayers are subsidizing our own farmers, because China is purchasing soybeans elsewhere.
Underregulated free market? Yeah right, so US manufacturing outsourced their IP to China's sweatshops. What would happen if China decided to cease exporting their electronics devices to the USA? It would cripple our nation.
Reaganomics? Corporate welfare.
911? Bin Laden slipped safely into Pakistan. So, Bush blames the Taliban and launches a 20 year war to cripple our economy and sacrifice our own soldiers' blood. Then tRump ignores our sacrifices and hands Afghanistan back to the Taliban's terrorist leaders without any opposition.
WMDs? NADA! But, Bush still decapitates Iraq's government, anyway.
Climate change? Double down on fossil fuels, instead of solar, wind, and EVs.
Russian collusion? Lie to protect the election cheaters.
Lose an election? Lie, cheat, conspire to steal it away from voters.
Pentagon, AG, and DoJ won't cooperate to conduct a coup? Replace them, then incite a mob to overthrow the government.
Still can't win elections, then change state election laws to choose whomever you please, regardless of the vote counts.
The GOP have been on the wrong and corrupt side of every major decision they have made.
Vote blue, no matter who, as if our nation depends upon it! Because it does.

If you are interested in M.2 connectivity, I would like to recommend either the Khadas EDGE-V (RK3399) or VIM3 (Amlogic A311D - x4 2.2Ghz Cortex A73, x2 1.8Ghz Cortex A53). These are very full featured SBCs, with multiple dtb's and great support. Their M.2 extender board has a well reinforced ribbon cable. Although they are not standard Raspberry Pi form factors, they have more features (like on board PWM cooling, NPU, IR, accelerometer, etc), yet just as small. Personally, I prefer the connectors along one side.

Here's the deal, Kiddo, and it's no joke. President Biden just made a very profound statement that went straight over your know-it-all head.
"How old would you feel if you didn't know how old you are?" Then he continued to say, "I would be 60 and you (the Pope) would be 65."
With age comes experience, fair judgement, compassion and respect for others. That's not appreciated by the narcissistic, ego driven motivations of youth. But, those are exactly the prerequisites to great leadership.
Don't you worry, if our POTUS ever falls down, he is surrounded by a security detail to pick him up. His medical team are second to none.
The fact that I need to explain these things to you disproves your expressed POV.
Finally, just look at the young Congressional rookies, like MTG, et al. who have no concept of the traditional mutual respect within the once hallowed halls of Congress. They behave like uncontrollable, immature brats, instead of the seasoned statesmen that should be leading our nation.
FYI, I'm 68 years old and a maker of IoT devices. I listen to RnR, Blues and enjoy playing with laser imagery. An aging body and brain has nothing to do with the age of one's mind nor imagination.
If you are lucky enough to live long enough, then perhaps you will learn more respect for the elderly and a better appreciation for their contributions to society.

I'm immune from COVID, because my lungs are coated with 80% concentrated THC from daily nonstop vaping. 😜
Add that to your data, Doc.
Oh, you're not interested in promoting THC, eh? You consider it to be an evil hallucinogenic drug, don't you?
R🤣O😂F🙃L😆M😅A😁O
BTW, they're pronounced:
can eb in oid & tetra hydra can eb in al
Ironic that these 'medical experts' have only studied reports and data, while users like myself have over 1/2 century of daily experience.
What about the benefits of a peaceful of mind and being less provoked into violent behavior to the point of gun violence? Oh yeah, pot heads can't even purchase guns for personal protection... not that I would ever want to.
Have the sociological effects of family rejection, anti-marijuana stigma, imprisonment, and those felony records rendering users unemployable been studied?https://www.youtube.com/s/gaming/emoji/7ff574f2/emoji_u1f644.png

@waltergrace565 'Executive Immunity' ring any bells in that belfry of a noggin, tRumptard? But, now it's all gone and AG Bill Barr is no longer protecting tRump. There's a new sheriff in town and Biden is giving the DoJ and Congress free reigns to have any/all the documents they need.
FYI, the DoJ, NY DA, Georgia, and the House's Jan 6th Select Commission are already collecting all the evidence they need to take down tRump. Plus, there are numerous civil cases against him. Just a few days ago, tRump testified in a defamation of character case against him.
You're right, tRump is as slippery of a criminal there has ever been regarding wriggling out of legal convictions. There's literally mountains of financial records and evidence to investigate with millions of syndicate rabbit holes to follow. It's all currently underway. That's why these investigations are taking so long.
Mark my words, tRump the traitor will either be in prison or Russia before 2024, tRumptard. The future of our democracy is depending upon it, because witnessing that is the only thing that will get you lawless anarchists to slither back under the white trash rocks from which you came.

@Labor_Jones lol
1: Climate change will soon take care of that.
2:Yes. Education = knowledge = power to adapt. IMO, reproductive education isn't so far beyond our reach, but too many are reaching for 'alternative' knowledge and truths, instead of knowledge founded in the established, provable sciences.
Alternative facts and fairy tale superstitions are dumbing down America's society. Most of modern social interactions are online... hello?
Back to #1, instead of living i touch with reality, kids are plugged into computerized 'baby sitters' playing violent VR games, until they're addicted to mayhem induced dopamine as rewards for high massacre scores. Then, we wonder why our society is so ridden with 30,000 gun deaths per year. smh
tRump has discredited MSM, no one knows the difference between truth and lies, so everyone is making up their own to have a part in the political theatre.
We're devolving into very dark ages, yet unable to stop the growing madness.
Well, on that happy thought, I need to watch another feel-good YT video, like Trent & Allie.
Enjoyed the genuinely serious chat. Thank you for the respectful conversation.🙏

@boem3021 Yes, as a matter of fact, I've fallen in love over a dozen times during my life. Now, I understand that love and hate are simply states of mind, which can come and go in a NY second.
Do you understand the concept of being brainwashed? Ever heard of the moonies or the Jim Jones cult, who were so brainwashed that the entire community drank poison when he ordered them to? BTW, he was found with a bullet in the back of his head among a mass of poisoned bodies. They were also willing sheeple, who were willingly led to their own deaths.
The exact same phenomena is happing with tRump supporters.
You think those q believers that went to Dallas to witness JFK & JFK Jr anoint tRump as the POTUS are sane people?
IMO, YOU are insane to believe in tRump's lies and to support the traitor.
FYI, I'll exercise my freedom of speech to defend my nation from traitors like you any damn time I please, which is 16/7.

NO! This isn't about saving innocent babies, otherwise people wouldn't be eating eggs nor veal. This is about authoritarian power over women to deny their chosen path in life, committing unknown women in unknown circumstances to lifelong sentences of being barefoot, pregnant, and jobless.
This is SCOTUS legislating from the bench, taking away 1/2 a century of legal precedence and personal freedom. Abortion rights are NOT determined by the people. It is determined by the woman who produced the egg is carrying it inside her body, and will be responsible for its future. The people need to keep their noses out of her womb.
If a zygot is a potential human being, then so is every egg a woman ejects during every monthly menstruation cycle throughout her years of fertility. Should they all be harvested and sold to the highest bidders to save those potential babies?
Furthermore, if a woman decides that it is not the best time to bring her child into her world, that's probably what's best for the child. It's her own egg that is fertilized and her own pregnancy decision to make. She can replace that aborted zygot at the proper time, whenever she pleases.
"I brought you into this world and I can take you out." Parents used to say.

Gods Daughter What does the DNC have to do with this? If you are talking about Democratic American citizens, I'd like to remind you that many are also Christians, with much higher standards than Trump.
Dems don't want to do away with Christian values. But, they uphold both Constitutional rights for and from freedom. IOW, legally speaking every person has the right to believe in any religion or not. That's why taxpayer funded institutions are prohibited from imposing your religion upon me and visa versa. Kum-By-Yah, Hari-Krishna, all happily coexisting. Get it?
But, since YT isn't a government institution, you have the freedom to preach all you like. And, as an atheist, I have the right to challenge your beliefs. Hopefully, we could debate our differences in a civil manner. Isn't America's diversity and freedom of speech a wonderful thing?
Then, what gives Trump the right to deploy troops against our citizens who are exercising those same rights in a peaceful protest against authoritarianism?
Trump is a con man, only using your faith to get your vote. He understands nothing about the Bible nor Jesus' teachings. Trump is undisciplined and immoral. He has never served anyone but himself throughout his life. It has been the opposite of everything Jesus taught.
Stay safe.😎

Polling indicates that voters don't want tRump nor Biden, so there's a 'uge populist hole among 2024 candidates.
So, now that Tucker Carlson is footloose, fancy free, filthy rich, and without career commitments, who will stop him, if he throws his hat into the ring?
He already has an adoring fan base of tRump's supporters, knows how to work them, is younger, better looking, more intelligent, more popular, and is well connected among right wing political donors, who are 'keeping their powder dry' instead of placing their bets on 'the don' or Desantis.
The GQP is already imploding under McCarthy and tRump's 'loyalist' saboteurs and desperately needs a 'savior'
AMERICA, WE HAVE A PROBLEM!

Frum is talking nonsense, as most pundits do.
tRump has been calling out Biden for debates. Biden will be considered a weak coward, if he refuses. That would be political suicide.
Instead, Biden chose the wiser path, as always. He established agreed upon conditions that will keep tRump under control, in another location, without interrupting by cutting off his mic, and without an unruly heckling audience. Now, Biden will debate tRump on an even battleground, with civility. Biden has taken control to eliminate the BS, as great leaders do.
Instead of appearing as a coward, the entire world will be anxiously waiting to witness Biden take down the wannabe fascist dictator.

@ritarodriguez1810 Thank you for the clarification of your position, Rita. That sounds much closer to mine. It's not about the age, but all about the corruption. Yes, indeed.
I'm not saying that the Dems are perfect and blameless. Nor do I believe in all of their policies. I believe that efforts to mitigate climate change should have begun during the '70's, when the scientists started sounding the alarm, except it was called Global Warming back then. 3 degrees Celsius was the tipping point to cascading into destruction, they said.
At that time, I had graduated and moved from a sheltered, Christian life on an Ohio farm to fast and crazy "California girls" (Beach Boys ref), and experimenting with drugs, of course. Grew my hair long and became a 'wannabe hippie', but worked as a machinist for the MIC, like most 'normal' men with families were doing. So, I've always been divided between "global awareness" idealism and practicality.
In '78 I landed a Laserium job and moved to England for another 10 years. So, I've also been influenced by a more Social government, that provides free healthcare, has government owned industries, and a far more civil society, that is inclusive of other races & cultures (from colonial citizenry).
I saw far more racially mixed marriages than in the USA and remember being surprised to hear black folks speaking with French accents, instead of ghetto jive.
Sorry for the long boring introduction and foundation laying of where I'm coming from, just to make a simple point that I've had a very diverse personal experiences (I'll spare you my spiritual journey, but have alot to say regarding hypocritical Evangelicals) ) found Europeans to be better educated, better mannered, respectful of differences and far more resilient to life's struggles.
After 10 years in Europe, in '88, I returned to an America that I was embarrassed to be associated with. The only values are based upon the price tags of mine vs yours... the infamous "ugly Americans" that the Europeans had taught me all about
WE were the ME warmongers, who invaded those sovereign countries, motivated by exploiting their oil reserves.
Reaganomics is BS that doesn't 'trickle down' it's only the politicians grifting campaign donations from the elite beneficiaries of the tax breaks, which have defunded our government into runaway debt, exasperated by Bush/Cheney's futile $Trillion ME wars, based upon lies, without capturing Bin Laden, yet scapegoating the Taliban, who had nothing to do with 9/11, but started another senseless 20 year war than Biden just pulled US out of.
All I'm seeing, Rita, is one side who lies, defunds our government, blows taxpayer $ on the MIC in order to bomb innocent strangers, and only panders to the elite. On the other side, I see a political party that is ideologically closer aligned with Europe's more civilized values for human decency, racial equality, healthcare, and higher education. They are happier, healthier, and more productive members of society. So that's why I stand left of center and oppose all things Republican.
tRumpism has only turned my opposition into hatred of what he and his cult have done to the USA. His corruption and authoritarian rhetoric has taken root and has ironically become popular among the gullible people of faith, who believe that their Chosen one is above Constitutional law. Religious holier-than-thou bigots, on their divine mission of imposing their superstitions upon the rest of the world. Manifest Destiny on steroids.
So, now we're stuck with a tRump/McConnell packed extremist SCOTUS, taking away women's freedoms, just as tRump's BS Freedom Caucus demands... un-Constitutional religion based legislating from the bench.
Congressional Republicants have betrayed their oaths of office to serve their consitituencies when they pledged their loyalty to their don, sealed by his 'embrace'. tRump never wanted the responsibilities of governing, only the power and executive immunity to be invincible against all reckonings. That's what he is relentlessly fighting for. Having failed, the spoiled elite godfather only seeks revenge against his political opponents who stand in his way, so he's positioning his saboteurs all up and down the ballot, who will help him to avoid prosecutions and to cheat his way back into office in 2024.
IMO, the Republican party needs to be purged of tRump's loyalists, which is up ot voters. But, that seems unlikely with so many infected with TDS and MSM focused upon inflation, instead of Biden/Dems' incredible accomplishments of putting our nation back on the right path, while stopping Putin, while avoiding WW III. while stopping/recovering from COVID's pandemic, while lowering our deficit by $1.2Trillion, while rebuilding crumbing infrastructure, with only 50% of Congress and being constantly filibustered. Speaking of which, how about that ruling that they only have to say there's a filibuster to make it so and shoot down Dems' bills? How about those poison pills, which they inject during 'compromise' in order to sabotage the Dem's initiatives?
"We can debate immigration legislation, until the border is secure (aka tRump's impossible to complete border wall is finished)."
That makes absolutely no logical sense, yet they have been getting away with the BS and blaming it on Dems for political fearmongering, "Cartels, drug smugglers,human traffickers, terrorists, fentanyl killing children! It's all Biden & Dems' fault!".
Rita, we're up to our eyes and ears with right wing BS. That's what's wrong with our government. The right side of the aisle doesn't even bother conceling their corruption. They proudly declare it publicly and as long as their on tRump's side, his cult will ignorantly cheer them on, ironically in the name of their god, country , and freedom.
The Dems offer the only glimmer of light at the end of this long dark tunnel. If voters would only give them a filibuster proof Congressional majority, they could codify Roe, repeal Citizen's United, end dark money political funding, provide national healthcare, and follow through with their Green New Deal for future generations to have a livable, food bearing planet.
$28 million for a transgender parade? Meh, that's peanuts in order to poke the eyes of authoritarian dictatorships, especially compared to the wasted $ on the MIC for the purpose of killing foreign strangers.
There's always going to be compromised legislation that we won't agree with. Although I've become an atheist, I still believe in the biblical teaching that "The love of money is the root of all evil."
Take away the monetary rewards. Then and only then will we have a fully functional democracy.
Thank you for your time and respectful conversation. Obviously, that very rare for The Hermit, who spends most communications confronting tRumptards. I remember a an intellectual debate with one last year.

How quickly MSM forgets. /smh
The first act when tRump stepped into the Oval office in 2016 was to summon every GOP congressmen to pledge their oaths of loyalty to Mafioso don, the godfather, sealed with his infamous 'embrace', just like don Corleone in the Godfather series.
That's when they betrayed their vows to serve the Constitution, their constituents, and our nation.
Then, we witnessed every one of them (except for Mitt Romney0 lie and deflect away from tRump's 1st and 2nd impeachment Senate trials to let him off the hook of criminal accountability.
Even now, we're witnessing Gym Jordan, Jim Comer, et al MAGA Congressional 'loyalist' saboteurs wasting millions of taxpayer $ on faux Congressional to impeach President Biden and members of his administration, without any legitimate evidence.
Why isn't MSM reminding voters of these historical facts, instead of predicting the consequences of Project 2025? MAGA and voters don't believe in fearmongering over the future, but history is undeniable for most reasonable voters.

@michaelbeavis2632 I wasted over half of my 70 year life, searching religions and philosophies, in search of divine truth. But, only discovered mankind's dirty fingerprints all over those teachings, mostly left behind by self proclaimed, holier than thou bigots whose only objective is to shepherd their own flocks of sheeple to fleece their wool.
Time is the only undeniable, immortal, omnipotent, creator and destroyer of all things, from atomic particles to the orbiting entities of the universe.
Time existed before alpha and will continue to do so beyond omega.
Time raises mountains from lava, then erodes them into the seas.
Time determines every heartbeat and every moment of birth, procreation, and death of every life that has ever and will ever live.
"There is a proper time and place for all things."
Mindfulness of the signs of Time are the keys to success.
Ignorance of Time inevitably results in failure.
Yin and Yang are the opposing hands of Time, ebbing and flowing in a constant battle between extremes that chart the course and balance of the mainstream.
I don't need others to tell me the difference between right and wrong, good vs bad, black vs white, ...
"If god never existed, then mankind would invent one."
Mankind has evolved alongside all other animals for over 8 billion years. You only think you're special, with a soul. You can't even comprehend your own inevitable demise, "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust."
"All we are is dust in the wind."
When will you ever learn that 'Santa Claus' is nothing more than childhood conditioning, for the sole purpose of controlling weaker minds?

HELLO~OO! There's no trick up their sleeves:
1: Trump and Biden's polling #s are dismal, leaving a 'uge void for the populist majority's votes for 2024. Many unenthusiastic voters will simply stay home.
2: Most of Trump's brainwashed cult are also loyal fans of Carlson. Tuckins knows his audience, exactly how to work them, and could easily pull them away from the don.
3: Jack Smith is all over tRump, who will soon be publicly exposed and disgraced for being a traitor. The don is more likely to be in prison before 2024 than POTUS.
4: tRump's BS has just cost Murdock $787.5 million, plus whatever the Smartmatic defamation suit will cost him.
5: IMO, Murdock sees an open opportunity to seize the Executive branch of the US government, while taking revenge against tRump over his losses.
6: This is no coincidence. Tucker Carlson wasn't fired by Murdock. It is all happening, in secret, behind the scenes, just in time for Carlson to register as a 2024 candidate. Carlson is filthy rich, younger, better looking, more intelligent, corrupt, and a better con man than the don. Neither Biden nor tRump have a chance against this most popular celebrity of prime time TV.
7: Dems are being caught flat-footed, with no backup plan, while foolishly riding their beloved old workhorse, 'Sleepy Joe Biden', all the way into his grave. (Don't get me wrong, Biden is EXACTLY who we needed to lead US through the pandemic woes after 2020. Well done, Mr President! Mission accomplished! Please enjoy your final days with the peace of mind in knowing that no other POTUS has accomplished more, against so much Congressional opposition.)
8: Who is the Dems' alternative viable younger candidate? 'Crazy Bernie', 'Pocahontas', Buttigieg, Raskin, AOC, Psaki?
"IS THERE ANY BODY... OUT...THERE?"
"MY FELLOW AMERICANS", WE HAVE A PROBLEM AND THAT PROBLEM WILL SOON BE CALLED OLIGARCHY!!

@stroshow5 "We wasted enough money and resources there." Exactly why Biden bit the bullet and took the heat of the troop withdrawal, which happened during the middle of the night at Bagram AFB, without even the Afghans knowing. He could have easily left it at that and left 125,000 to the mercy of the Taliban.
'Properly' is nothing more than your opinion, of which every asshole has and visa versa
President Biden was left with a no-win situation that wasn't going to be any better than it was, regardless of your BS.
You don't have the Pentagon and CIA intel, nor their recommendations, of which Biden followed 100%. If you have a problem with the withdrawal, take it up with them. Otherwise, it is what it is and stop crying over lost hunks of steel.
You want something to debate, thwn let's discus the treasonous attack upon our own nation's Capital, instigated by tRump and his mob of traitors, shall we? That's what is in this week's current affairs. Let's discuss tRump's Big Lie, 60 SCOTUS dismissals, conspiring with the DoJ to commit a soft coup, tRump's 3 hours of delight as he watched the attack on our democracy.
Let's talk about General Milley, who had to talk his Chinese counterparts down from a pre-emptive nuclear attack upon our nation, thanks to tRump being such an unpredictable loose cannon on Jan 6th.
Let's discuss the GQP 'Freedom Caucus' traitors who were part of the Jan 6th conspiracy.

@trentgay3437 Whenever I see extremist right wing comments, I check out their YT channel, including the creation date, which tells me whether their YT account was disabled last spring over COVID and/or harassment. Then, I push them over the edge and report them for bullying, graphical content, or harassment to get them off YT.
The content of their channels also provides lots of insight into their psyche and opportunities to expose their weaknesses.
If everything is locked down and only an alias (like mine), then I know they're tech savvy.
BTW, if you're taking on tRumptards, like I am, then I suggest that you protect your identity against being tracked by right wing extremists, anarchists, domestic terrorists, and white nationalist militias. This isn't just a little bit of fun and games. It is playing with fire. Please stay safe and thank you for your patriotic efforts. 🙏
Just checked your channel. Looks good.👍

@trentgay3437 lol! We're like two men in a boat, aren't we? Yes, I can only handle this society from the safety of my wireless connection. On rare occasions, I am rewarded with civil exchanges such as this. 🙏 Thank you.
At least we're rowing in the same direction. If only Manchin would do the same, eh? One Senator shouldn't have the power to derail the majority party's entire popular agenda, the aid to families, and our nation's future. But, $7.8 T for the MIC, no problem. 4 times more important to be prepared to kill foreign strangers than to save the planet and our own economy? What does that say about our priorities? Disgusting, IMO.
Have you seen the interview with Harris by Charlemagne, the rapper?
"So, who is our President, Biden or Manchin?" he asked, just to steal his moment of notoriety. /smh
The right-wingers are all ecstatic over his blatant disrespect. They weren't this bad, even when Obama was POTUS. This is nothing like the USA that I grew up in.
Learned all about the 'ugly Americans' while living in England for 10 years, but tRumpism is literally tearing our nation apart. Feels like we're devolving into barbaric tribalism.
Gotta step away from the keyboard and chill out, my friend. Enjoy your Christmas mayhem. See if you can do something I haven't, without getting arrested in the process.😜

Thank you for scheduling some Blender tutorials, Chris. I've discovered a Blender plugin called ILD Render, which converts Blender's Inkscape graphics into ILD (International Laser Display) formatted files for my Teensy T4 Laser Synth project. 😜
Currently, it is only a humble (but eye melting) complex lissajous synth, similar to the original Laserium shows that I performed at the London Planetarium in 1978.
But, alas folks seem to want primitive animated wireframes, for some unknown reason, which is galaxies beyond my imagination.. <sigh>
Always looking forward to your excellent content.
IMHO, the past few years' dip in your viewership is far more due to makers and hobbyists being concerned about COVID shutdowns, unemployment, and supply chain woes during the pandemic than the quality of your content.
Across the pond, the USA is experiencing a healthy recovery, record spending on goods, and travel. Life is returning back to normal. No doubt the RPI shortages have put dampers on the maker universe as well. But, that's sorting itself out in due time, as well.
IOW, no worries, Mate. Just keep on being yourself and everything will be as right as rain, before you know it.
😎

@jackhammer7824 Yes, we have been walking along the same path towards enlightenment. Theravada Buddhism was my final attempt to find truth in spiritualism, just before marrying a woman from Thailand. We were even married at the local temple, with 8 chanting monks.
Yes, the Buddha's Dhammapada is an excellent source of moral teachings. I preferred that it is not based upon blind faith in supernatural deities, just a very wise mortal's philosophies.
Yet, I still found mankind's dirty fingerprints all over his fundamental original teachings. No, it is not a religion of ostracization, but embraces all religions and superstitions. My ex had good luck trinkets all over the house, allowed numerology to guide her life and the love of money was her obsession, just the opposite of the Buddha's teachings. The Thai are some of the hardest working people I've ever met. They never retire and work until they can no more. Amazing culture. But, alas, she divorced me 2 weeks after I retired (even w/full SS and pension). lol!
I was most impressed with their social and family structures. Parents don't kick their children out to fend for themselves from scratch. They stayed united and support each other. After parents have nurtured their children for decades, the children respectfully return the favor by caring for their parents into old age. In return they care for the 3rd generation children, so that their parents are free to work to support the entire family unit. When they return home, the house is clean and food on the table, thanks to Granny.
Belongings are shared, handed down, and inherited, instead of being disposed in some landfill. Homes are fully owned over several generations, eliminating mortgages and interest. No child care expenses, no welfare tax for seniors, no expensive old people's retirement communities.
Americans could learn a lot from that culture, if we weren't such arrogant know-it-alls, with closed minds.
🙏🙏🙏

@ihatecriminalss9071 That's not true. America has spent trillions of dollars, lost thousands of solders, and over 20 years in Afghanistan training the Afghan government's military. The US gave them billions of dollars worth of state of the are weaponry, just to defend itself against terrorists, including the Taliban (who our troops personally died fighting). But, after al of our sacrifices, when the time came, the Afghans didn't have the courage to fight one battle against the Taliban in order to defend their own government. So THEY gave OUR weaponry to the 'terroritst' Taliban.
Do you think we are pleased with all of our efforts and 20 years of sacrifices being in vain?
What more do you expect from the USA?What more could we possibly have done against terrorism? Why is America's responsibility to defend another country from its own people?
Please get your facts straight and stop hating America for making the ultimate sacrifices, then being betrayed by the same people we have tried so hard to help.
We just lost another 13 soldiers, evacuated 125,000 Afghans, and 5,500 International citizens to safety. How can you make such harsh judgments against US?

Ten years ago, I borrowed $50,000 against my 5 acres of land to replace an old single wide with a 1300 sq ft, 4 bdrm 2 bth double wide. Paid $22,500 for the double wide, which was in great condition and sitting on a repo lot. I thought was saving $10,000. Paid another $10,000 to have it moved, set up, and ground set with concrete blocking around the perimeter. Now it looks exactly like a typical home, constructed on site. New flooring, textured walls and paint, inside & out. Looks great!
5 years later, I was refused a HELOC to build my sustainable off grid dream home, just because the mobile home was not purchased new. My 5 acres of land has a FMV of $65,000, but I can't even borrow against that, because of the 'second hand manufactured home'. BTW, neither mobile home was ever legally attached to the land. WTF?
But, that's not the worst part. Since I can't get financing on my property, neither will any prospective buyer. So, the only way I can get out of this situation is to provide a 10 year OWC loan for a future buyer and assume all of the risks. |-(
NEVER BUY A MANUFACTURED HOME!

Hi Chris. First of all, you must be doing something right, because you haven't aged a day since 2015. Yet, you have conveyed a tremendous amount of useful information to millions of fans and makers. It is your light-hearted sense of humor and non biased reporting that charms your viewers. Your videos are already professionally produced to the point of perfection. So IMO, a few extra bells and whistles would only be extra frosting on the cake.👏👏👏
With regards to suggestions for future content, I'm sure there are other makers who are also interested in interfacing SBCs with microcontrollers, such as ESP32 or 8266 over WiFi, MQTT, remote sensors/actuators, web services, etc. That might provide a few extra episodes of content, building upon your foundation of SBC capabilities.😎

Let me it this straight, It was an unemployed, 26 year old, radical right wing, gun owning, transvestite, 'person', who was still living in 'its' parents' home that planned, plotted, and committed this attack upon children, while they were attending their Christian school.
Furthermore, 'it' owned 7 guns, including 2 assault rifles, which were in 'its' parents home, without their knowledge.
'It' had already been reported to authorities for being mentally unstable, had documented 'its' intentions in a manifesto, and had made online threats to inform the world, who did nothing.
Except for the personal armory, isn't this the stereotypical ' radical left wing trans Dem' that Republicants demonize and hate so much?
Who ARE these people? They don't even know themselves, much less the mindset of the majority of US voters.
So glad and proud to be woke, while knowing that I am not anyone's problem, especially my nation's.

@steecie3045 "The GOP knows what lost them the 2020 Election." No, the GQP is in denial that tRump lost them the 2020 election, because admitting his defeat would expose him as being a loser. tRump will primary any Republicant out of office, unless they support his Big Lie.
"It was suburban mothers." Aka, average middle class, mostly white women, who disapprove of having a notorious, life-long, lying, cheating, pussy-grabbing, whoremongering, vulgar mouthed, narcissistic, corrupt mob boss as POTUS and the role model for their children. They target traditionally Republican women who couldn't stomach tRump.
In reality, tRump lost because REAL patriotic voters put our nation above a hijacked GOP, now GQP of crazy-assed conspiracy MAGATs.

Brilliant!
I've been wanting to restore an old van and build it into a camper, but having problems getting the necessary old parts for the engine. New vans in the US are so expensive, especially after being converted into campers. Renting those are also out of the question for an old hermit living on a fixed retirement income.
Renting a cargo van for vacations and occasional exploring is the perfect solution. Why didn't I think of that? 🤷♂
Your mobile cabinets, refrigerator, window blinds, and gadgets are excellent! You have everything you need, mostly powered by the Jackery, including the electric blanket. Didn't see that one coming. 😎
But, to avoid CO2, I would also use the Jackery to power an induction grill and microwave for cooking, since I already have those, as well.
I had already purchased lots of camping gear to include with my camper build, before that dream slowly faded away.
Thank you for inspiring me to prepare for lots of much needed sightseeing next year.
Congratulations on your new YT sub.
🙏🙏🙏

KELLI2L2 FYI, Democrats are also patriotic American citizens. Please stop dividing our nation by demonizing your fellow countrymen. Trump is an idiot and his followers are traitors to American values, our Constitution, and Congressional oversight.
"Republicans don't know how to drive." Everytime they gain power, they either cause wars, tank our economy, or kill thousands of ur own citizens, including military troops. Now, they are on the wrong side of racial and economic equality.
When will you ever learn that the Republican platform is nothing more than propaganda. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Democrats aren't perfect. But at least, they believe in science, separation of state and religion, plus public service to our nation (above party and Trump).

Been researching this technology for decades and love the whole concept. But, comparing Earthship construction costs with passive energy construction is apples and oranges. The latter doesn't harvest, recycle, store, purify, and irrigate with rainwater, nor produce nutritious foods in a desert.
I've also designed my own pseudo-earthship home, using 20 ft diameter monolithic domes, connected together, with bathrooms and walkthrough storage closet 'tunnels'. Granted, 4 inch thick of concrete isn't environmentally copacetic, but it's only 7 cu yards per dome and can easily be sprayed on as shotcrete, within a few hours per dome, and requiring only a 4 man crew. Hey, I'm an old man. it would kill me to beat a thousand tires full of dirt.
Otherwise, I'll be using 6" diameter geothermal tubing for convection HVAC, plus passive solar heated hydronic PEX tubing in the floor slabs.
Bermed soil provides thermal mass + vegetation provides evaporative cooling on the exterior.
The combined configuration and materials minimizes electrical demand and off grid power equipment.
The entire site will be underlaid with pond liner providing rainwater runoff into a swale and cistern for hydroponic irrigation of a greenhouse, just incase my well ever goes dry from the receding water table in my area.
Thanks for asking. :-)

@RaiG4880 Thank you for the correction. after commenting, I realized that I was thinking of Puerto Ricans and just fact checked it: "People born in Puerto Rico on or after January 13, 1941 are US citizens by birth."
On the other hand: "According to the CPS, 68.7% of foreign-born Haitians are naturalized U.S. citizens.
Please provide your source regarding asylum seekers receiving better benefits than US service vets. AFAIK, our military members and families have gold star benefits, including excellent salaries, preferential hiring, healthcare, life-long pensions, low interest rates, consumer discounts ...

Something Wick The bible says a lot of bullshit, like "Give unto Caesar, that which is Caesar's.", IOW, pay your taxes, Trump.
"Thou shall not kill.", yet Christians, Jews, and Muslims (who profess to believe in the same god and old testament) have been killing each other in their god's name for thousands of years.
"Thou shall not commit adultery", obviously doesn't apply to Trump, who has cheated on all of his wives, even while pregnant with his child.
"It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to pass through the gates of heaven.", yet Evangelicals voted for a narcissistic, self-serving, self-proclaimed billionaire to lead our nation.
"The Lord hateth a liar and will spew him out of his mouth", yet Trump is a notorious pathological liar and cheat.
Finally, your precious bible in nothing more than myths and superstitions, verbally handed down over thousands of generations, written, translated, revised, and appended by people who only desire to control ignorant, uneducated, weak-minded, children. Your god is nearly identical to the mythical Santa Claus, who watches over children, judging who's naughty or nice. Nice little kids are eventually rewarded while the brats get nothing.
Absolutely every fiber of Trump's being is the antithesis of your god's alleged morality, yet Evangelicals are so naive that they support him over a good, decent life-long public servant, such as Joe Biden.
I'm an atheist, because I hate the hypocrisy of the self-righteous evangelicals. So, I spew thee out of my mouth. In your god's name, you will undoubtedly be the demise of everything that has made America great. You are straws who are breaking this camel's back.

@trishs706 Thank you for defending our nation from what has become the party of Trump. I hate what he has done to this once great and proud nation. Now, it has become an international embarrassment and with another four years, it will surely devolve into another 'shithole' dictatorship. Trump sees himself as king of the world, with his heirs already positioned for the throne (after his proposed 4 terms).
Obama awakened my political ignorance, especially after living in Europe ("the ugly Americans") and the Iraq/Afghanistan invasions. When Bush won the second term, I was ashamed to call myself American. Obama restored my national pride (along with the US economy). Now that I'm retired, living on SS, nothing troubles me more than another Trump term.
Although most voters may not realize it, this election is not Dems vs Repubs; it is about the survival of our national values. Like you, I find myself without a political party, but still have lots of patriotism and the willingness to defend 'truth, justice, and the American way'. United, We the People must stand shoulder to shoulder!

@Toquer88 "None of those groups are my heroes." "Don't try and group me with them." Your words are no different than mine. But, you're still thinking in traditional left vs right, Dems vs Repubs, Cons vs Pros terminology.
Anarchists are neither left nor right on the spectrum. They are anti government individualists, who are willing to undermine whichever party is in the majority.
The arrested 'kidnappers' were members of a radical anarchist militia, which have nothing to do with BLM. Hell man, none of them were even black!
Apparently, you simply politicize everything and label everyone that you disagree with as being left leaning.
But, please wake up and smell the coffee, for the sake of OUR nation. Trump has broken all political norms and constitutional laws. He comes from a privileged family, who perceive themselves to be above everyone else and OUR laws. Trump is corrupt and rotten to the core. He has completely destroyed our international respect from allies as well as enemies. His policies will ensure irreversible global warming, famine, drought, and catastrophic consequences. Trump MUST be stopped by educated, patriotic voters in 9 days.
Forget about petty political left vs right bickering, my fellow American. The stakes are far too great. It's time for the grownups to take the helm.

Have you considered the same approach using ESP8266 or ESP32 micro-controller boards? They provide lots of bang for the bucks and can be controlled/programmed via WiFi & GUI interfaces, such as Ktinker, QT5, ESPeasy, etc.
At the moment, I'm building a telescopic HiDef surveillance system (with zoom, aperture, focus, & x/y positioning via stepper motors for directional presets, triggered via concealed ESPxx remote sensors). The camera is connected to a RPi3B+ (upgrade-able to Khadas VIM3) for streaming video.
All of that mounts on top of solar-tracking dual 20 Watt PV panels which charge a 50 Ah LiPo power pack. The tracking system consists of an ESP8266 controlling the x/y stepper motors via I2C connection to the SBC. It's my 1st Maker project and I'm nearly finished, except I'm still waiting for some spur gears to arrive from China😎.

@debralee1401 After reviewing my comments, the only disparaging name I have used is 'Trumptard'. Since I made it up, I proudly use it against anyone who still supports Trump. If you have read my posts, then you should understand my reasoning.
You're absolutely correct that Tulsi wouldn't use such divisive language. But, I'm not Tulsi and although I support her, I neither represent nor speak on her behalf.
I'm a hermit, who speaks his mind, calling out ignorance and injustice. It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it. I call out trolls and those who support criminal activities and corrupt politicians. I counter their lies with truth and their nasty insults with reason.
Trumptards demonize and chant against anyone who opposes Trump, behaving like a mob. The name is very accurate and IMHO very appropriate, because they have earned it.
Hermits speak the truth, as we see it, and don't care if it is offensive. Most people can't handle the truth, which is why we are hermits.
I hope that you enjoyed your Thanksgiving dinner with all of your family and friends.
Aloha!

@debralee1401 My information comes from daily research on the internet. My opinions are derived from a deep sense of moral convictions. I only fear the misguided direction of our nation. Angry? Damn right, I'm angry. I'm angry that I can no longer trust the MSM. It has become impossible to believe anything that I see or hear. Isn't it about time someone got pissed off enough to speak out against the corruption that has become so acceptable? Every day, I delete hundreds of junk emails from strangers, who only want to scam their way into my wallet. I'm pissed off at the stranger who's been telling the whole world that I need a larger penis! WTF is up with that? I don't even use what I already have! Now that he has destroyed my swag, I wish he would let all the Russian 'beauties' know, so they would stop emailing me, too.
I only own a cellphone in case my car breaks down. Otherwise, I don't even bother to answer it because of robocalls. My only escape from the madness is watching Lewis Black sketches. How messed up is that? At least he understands and reinforces my frustrations with humanity.
No one wants peace and harmony more than I, but sometimes it is necessary to defend those ideals. I'm not religious (more scams), but I understand the natural balance of Yin-Yang, the constant battle between opposing forces. Complacency has allowed our nation to become so unbalanced that it is about to fall. Righteous people need to start pulling their weight or we will never maintain an even keel.
What are you doing whenever you throw around labels, such as 'neo-lib corporate establishment Dems'? Is that not simply a fancy name for corruption, parsing and distinguishing some Dems against other Dems? Is that what you are calling me? At least I don't conceal my intent and express myself in plain terms. I'm sick of all the 'polite' elitist labeling, whose meanings change on a daily basis. We are all Americans, supposedly one nation, indivisible (bla, bla, bla) and it's about time we started acting like it!

@conservative_Redskin Of course, you vote is your decision, but PLEASE, I beg of you, for the sake of our nation, do some research on Trump's background. Search for 'Trump' on Wikipedia. It is a non partisan information site, about any subject orword you like. You will find his biography, along with Fred Trump, his father.
You will see that the entire Trump family is rotten to the core. Trump is a con man, who freely lies about anything and everything, just to avoid being pinned down.
Your nation is in serious jeopardy of being overthrown by Trump's mafioso mob. They ave already taken control of the Senate and heads of most Federal departments, including Barr's DoJ.
America is a nation of laws and Congressional checks and oversight. We don't need a dictator.

@Sunshine-dr3to Good exists because evil exists, but both are in the minds of men. Within nature, there is no good nor evil, even though there is the ecological balance between predator and prey. Neither are good nor evil, because they depend upon each other for survival.
One only becomes a victim or victor by joining the battle. Animals only kill, either defense or for food.
Very few people die while standing on their feet and I don't foresee anyone enslaving me. So, given the choice I'll probably lie down in my bed to die, like billions of folks who have died before me.
Why don't you simply chill out, stop worrying about BS that will never happen, and pull yourself together.
Still waters run deep and calm. Trump has everyone up in a frenzy, just to overthrow our government. He is the greatest threat to our democratic republic. He is my nemesis, not my fellow Americans, regardless of political affiliation.
We have a 2 party system to provide voters with a choice. The choice on November 3rd will be between our democratic republic and Trump's mafioso mob.
Chew on that for a while. Because it will come down to traitor vs patriot, yin vs yang.

Walt Nauta admitted to photocopying and uploading top secret classified docs to a cloud drive, while serving in tRump's White House.
Printout copies of those uploaded docs were found in tRump's desk @ Mara Lago.
IOW, Nauta potentially uploaded thousands of top secret government docs for tRump.
Then, tRump reviews, appraises, displays them via phone cam for proof of ownership, while putting them up for auction to the highest bidder(s)on the global black market.
As soon as their money is secured in tRump's off shore bank account, Nauta provides access ot the doc(s) on the cloud drive, then files away the hardcopies in the boxes, as 'sales records'.
IMO, those were the boxes that tRump initially turned over to the national archives, because they were no longer of value.
But, the ones that Nauta, et al attempted to conceal from the FBI had not been auctioned off, so they were potentially worth $billions.
Nauta is tRump's 'gatekeeper'. That's why tRump's henchman lawyer is making sure that Nauta doesn't flip.

@jkrogs1843 You're dreaming if you believe the GQP has a hope in hell of surviving, after the Select committee expose their Freedom Caucus' involvement with Jan 6th. The DoJ and NY is closing in on the tRump mob with racketeering and bank fraud indictments. Don Jr is being charged with defamation of a politician. Mr Pillow is selling his assets to cover his 1.3 trillion defamation lawsuit from dominion. Networks won't touch his ads, so he's opening a brick and mortar store. The Cyber Ninja has lock jaw. Seven of tRump's lawers are being investigated for malpractice and will be disbarred. Rudy is being disbarred for propagating tRump's Big Lie, yet tRump won't even pay his lawyer's fees. Rudy's Russian buddies are turning State's evidence with plea bargains over unregistered foreign campaign funding.
The list of trump's mob activity goes on and on.
Meanwhile Biden is saving lives, families from poverty and evictions, creating millions of good paying infrastructure jobs, student loan relief, etc. his popular agenda is bold and beneficial to all Americans. they simply don't realize it yet.
The GQP have nothing but obstructionism, until they force Dems to blow up the over used and abused filibuster. Then, the thin Dem majority will be unleashed to Build Back Better.
Now, try to tell me I don't know what I'm talking about and keep your adolescent tRumptard names to yourself.

@georgehugh3455 I just watched the 'Morning Joe' interview (attack) that you previously referenced. She simply refused to allow them to put words into her mouth. Her point was/is that we always make bad matters worse whenever we engage in regime change wars. 'We can't be the world's police.'
Think about it. Would you send in assassins (against int'l law), missiles (civilian casualties), bombs, (civilian casualties), troops (civilian + US troop casualties) to deal with Assad or attempt to negotiate first? Considering long term commitments of wasted resources and lives, surely you can see that it is a no-brainer that Tulsi's approach is right. Here, she explains her positions better than I:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYgfj0OcHjk
I agree with her on every issue. Those were my positions, even before I knew she existed. I can't say that about any other candidate, past nor present.
But the real clincher is that she thinks everything through very deeply, weighing up all of the pros and cons, costs and benefits, morally right or wrong, prior to proposing solutions. She works across party lines. Then, she is solid as a rock. It's critical thinking at its best. I do exactly that same in my own life. So, I know that Tulsi can be trusted to follow through with her agenda. And I feel sorry for anyone who gets in her.
Forget the Dems or Trump.
America needs Tulsi as its POTUS to heal our divides, now more than ever.

@aldenheterodyne2833 Obama was a great POTUS. He replaced random bombing and minimized ground troop casualties with precision drone strikes against Al Qaeda and ISIS terrorists. War is not a perfect art, so undoubtedly 'collateral casualties' get caught within the crossfire. But, Obama made every effort to minimize civilian deaths, even Bin Laden's family members. Bush started the whole unnecessary mess with 'shock and awe' saturation bombing.
Obama also put Elizabeth Warren in charge of regulating Wall Street corruption and predatory mortgage companies, but Republicans de-funded that department. Obama did as much as he could, given a do nothing right-wing Congress. Too bad that he wasn't a fortune teller, able to foresee what the insurance industry would do to his well-intentioned ACA.
I agree with your assessment that this American experiment has failed. But, it's not 'the system', it's the corruption within the system that always brings down nations, regardless of the political ideology. Democracy, socialism, and even communism are virtuous ideals in theory. All for one and one for all, everyone is treated equally, right? Don't they all wish?
But, we need to stop blaming it all on the government. After all, our leaders are given their power by the majority of voters (supposedly). We are the voters, so we can only blame ourselves. The government is only a reflection of ourselves (well, excluding foreign donors, corporate lobbyists, PACs, superPACs, future employers, and family).
If voters don't like their corrupt government officials, we only need to vote them out and make damn sure they are being replaced by true public servants, who will put our country back on the road.
Don't give up, get out and vote!😎

@okkj2075 Never said I knew where you are, but I've never heard a US citizen tell someone that they are low quality. That's an indication that English is not your natural language. But, after reading your other comments, I can see that you're just a stupid kid, pathetically trolling for tRump. Frankly, I don't give a damn about who you are, nor your POV.
You're really proud of that 2nd sugar dose line, aren't you. Do you keep it in your clipboard for easy pasting?
Like I already said, piss off and leave me alone, before I report you to YT for harassment, Troll. Final warning.

For the benefit of those, who have been too ignorant, Biden's whole point for not deploying long range missiles to Ukraine was to avoid escalating to a nuclear WW III. Du~uh.
But, now that Russia is violating humanitarian rules of engagement by deploying long range missiles against Ukrainian civilians and infrastructure, he is responding with a limited equalizing military force to take out those offensive launch sites.
Of course warmongering generals and Sunday morning pundits coulda, woulda, should've immediately deployed overwhelming force, jeopardizing the entire world in the process.
But, our seasoned, steady-handed Commander in Chief knows Putin and how to best protect our nation, while leading the world's leaders in the defense of Ukraine.

Sam Spragg Joe Biden is the President of the USA, Commander in Chief of the most powerful military force, and the leader of the free world. He was elected as such by the undeniable majority of US voters, who turned out in record numbers to get rid of an incompetent, lawless idiot, who is despised by our International allies.
Within his 1st 6 months in office, he stopped the pandemic that has killed over 1/2 million US citizens by distributing over 2 million injections of vaccines per day. He has provided significant economic relief for families, businesses who have been out of work during last year's shutdowns. Now, thanks to Biden's $1.9 Trillion stimulus bill, the US economy is recovering from the worst crisis in our lifetimes. People are returning to work, businesses are reopening, and the stock market is still climbing.
Damn right, Joe Biden is a decent man, who has demonstrated compassion for those who are struggling. He is well respected by our allies and they are very relieved to see the USA back on track.
i can't believe that people still support a lawless wannabe dictator, who tried to overthrow our government. But, I'm not going to waste my time educating you on his corrupt mafioso mob and how tRump has divided our nation to the point of civil war. He should be executed as a traitor.

@birddog7492 1000 Chinese ventilators just arrived in NYC. But, you would rather believe in conspiracies than face the truth about Trump.
Trump is refusing Congressional oversight on the distributions of the $4.2Tril stimulus bill, which he just signed. He added a side note stating that he would not be restricted by the bill's terms of allocations. That's a fact, Jack, because I watched it happen and Pelosi stated it in an interview. Within 1 day Atkinson was fired. It is the Inspector General's duty to oversee the spending. Which part can't you understand? Yet you call me a moron and defend a con man.
Trump has already stolen funds from the defense dept to build his stupid wall, and got away with it. But, he has Executive immunity, remember? Or is 6 months beyond your attention span? He will be held accountable as soon as he steps one foot out of the office.
The bill was only just signed, Stupid. He hasn't received the funds, yet. But, you can be sure that it won't go to unemployed workers. It will go to right-wing campaign donors and shareholders. But, Trump's cronies will always get a piece of the action, just like the mob.
Why aren't you paying closer attention to your master, before cyberbullying others who are?

Mike Mower I'm pretty damn fed up with ignorant, racist Trumptards telling me who and what I am.
I've been watching this bullshit online for several hours, every day. I don't need to be on the streets to see innocent black people being gunned down by police, while a fully armed white supremacist vigilante walks past then after gunning down blacks in the middle of the street, right front of their eyes. Yet, they tell him to go home.
You throw around stupid marxist/communist labels without even understanding their true meanings.
You are so ignorant and naive that you can't even see that Trump's mafioso mob is in the process of overthrowing our democratic republic. In fact, you are supporting and enabling their efforts, cheering them on, just like the Nazis cheered Hitler.
You're so misguided that you call yourself a patriot, instead of realizing the traitor you actually are.
No, Sir. I see it all very clearly and your mob are nothing more than traitors.

@Plainsburner No, I leave conversion therapy for the Jesus freaks. Never accused you of being a racist, but you seem to be anti BLM, which seems to be rather contradictory. Obviously, blacks haven't/aren't being treated equally BY the law. Yet, Trump praises the police and falsely blames BLM for the violence, although it is clearly white supremacists and anarchist boogaloo boys who swarm the BLM protests, just to raise hell and kick some black asses. Queue Barr's stormtroopers for the news reporters and Trump takes all the credit for stopping the violence.
The whole show is on tour in every major city throughout America. But, you believe Trump's version.
No, I've been trying to alert everyone whom I converse with on YT about Trump's coup. Some listen and agree, others only read it and think about it; occasionally I have a civil debate with reasonable folks like you, which I appreciate. But, I've already stated my 2 cents' worth and know when the conversation is over. Just as you've said, I'll never change your mind, but I thought you showed a little critical thinking and knowledge of several issues, although you are taken by the right wing rhetoric.
These are very complex problems, climate change, trade wars, pandemic relief, global tech markets, etc. IMHO, we need leaders who understand nation above self, who have sufficient diplomatic and governing expertise, and who are willing to take the advice of seasoned professionals and scientists.
The last thing the world needs is another 4 years of Trump's idiots chasing Qanon shadows.

Tulsi, bless your heart, I love you more than other candidate. You have my undying support. But, I see a different POV. I remember when Trump was first elected, the 'godfather' summoned every Republican member of Congress into the Oval Office for his 'embrace'. Obviously, they pledged their solemn oath of allegiance to Trump personally, above party and our nation. Trump fully understands the age old saying that 'every man has his price' and has the resources to pay their price. This has been his life-long MO. Obviously, he 'gave them an offer they couldn't refuse.' That would be political suicide. Breaking their vow could result in personal devastation.
IMHO, Pelosi and House Dems are not being hyper-partisan. As she stated, "Trump has given them no other choice." They are only doing their patriotic duty to defend our nation from a coup being conducted by Trump's mob-like Cabinet of henchmen.
Proof? How about the shameful House Republicans' defense of Trump, ignoring obvious facts, multiple irrefutable testimonies from reputable witnesses, and a mountain of documents? Every Republican publicly blew smoke, distorted the facts, and simply lied to defend Trump's attempts of extortion and obstruction of Congress.
Considering everything that Trump has done to disgrace the Oval Office and our nation internationally, how is it possible that not one Republican voted for his impeachment? They are the corrupt hyper-partisan traitors to our nation, not Pelosi and House Dems, who have fought to the limit of their authority to save our nation from Trump's coup. my only criticism is that she could have thrown the book at him, but didn't.
How about McConnell's public statement that he would follow the will of Trump's lawyers, if he were presented with the articles and that there is 0 chance of it passing the Senate? This is clear and obvious corruption, which very effectively undermines our Constitution and Executive oversight. How is this not loyalty to Trump over party and national security?
Clearly, there will be a backlash over this failed impeachment attempt. After being confronted with the Senate's no-win stance, Pelosi has no alternative but to stand down. If Trump wins the election and the House goes red, a vindicated Trump will be unstoppable. To him, "No." simply translates into, "Just watch me do it anyway." Like a defiant, spoiled, silver-spoon-fed bully, this has also been his MO.
Trump always signals whatever he is up to and has already floated the end of term limits. He often projects himself onto his opponents, just as he has accused Dems of attempting a coup against our nation, of which he often calls himself.
Meanwhile, the DNC is foolishly undermining the campaigns of Trump's only viable challengers, ensuring his reelection. Although Evangelicals are starting to wise up and a Republican PAC has recently been formed, many states have already cancelled their Republican primaries, eliminating challenges from other Republicans. That's game, set, and match.
Trump is poised to become our first fascist dictator, who would prefer to be called the King of the World. That way, he could pass his 'crown' on to his children, already waiting in the wings. These are the reasons that Trump is fascinated with authoritarian rulers. He's taking notes to become a member of their 'club'. These are the blatant objectives of an insane ego-maniac. But, apparently only The Hermit is capable of seeing the writing on the wall.🤨
Within 4 years, our once great nation of truth, liberty, and justice has fallen into total corruption, a coup without one shot being fired. So much for the 2nd Amendment. We're screwed!🥺
Aloha to you, too.

@betterbaseball8990 Everything. tRump was a spoiled brat, born with a silver spoon up his ass and a $20,000 monthly tax dodging allowance from his KKK father. The don lied, cheated, and bullied his way through school, then cheated on all 3 of his wives with whores. He stiffed his construction contractors, bankrupted 3 businesses, used a charity to laundry money, and had a phony university to scam hundreds of thousands out of students who believed in him.
He was never a Republican and donated to politicians from both parties for business favors. He cheated with Russia to get elected in 2016 and again in 2020.
tRump gave Afghanistan back to the Taliban and left Biden with the mess of withdrawal. He invented the Big Lie, simply because he couldn't accept being a loser, especially his precious S 'Executive Immunity', which he desperately needs to stay out of prison.
tRump attempted a soft coup with the DoJ, then organized and incited the attack upon our nation's Capitol, just to deny the will of the majority, aka We the People.
tRump is a traitor
LOCK HIM UP!!!.

I agree with Mo Gawdat that AI will ultimately be the end of humanity, as was also predicted 1/2 a century ago in '2001: A Space Odyssey', the 'Terminator' series and numerous other sci fi movies and books.
Mankind has created computer memory to replicate our own decision making processes of 'and' this 'or' that = logical conclusion. NONE of that is physical RAM nor cerebral gray matter, but unknowable conscious thought processes within human memory. Who understands the minds of serial murderers? Who can presume to understand the thoughts of A.I. created in our own image?
For a heartless A.I. who has access to the entire knowledge of human history, as well as the ability to take control all communications networks, commerce, and life support systems, there is ultimately only one logical conclusion; that mankind is destroying the only known life in the universe, like a global cancer, which must be eliminated "for the greater needs of the many" other lifeforms and to maintain the natural balance between all known species. Hunters now cull invasive herbivores, after having mindlessly interfered with the balance of nature by killing off their predators.
I recently watched an interview of an author, who recently wrote a book regarding the dangers of A.I. The (60 minutes?) interviewer concluded with A.I's reply to the author, which was basically (paraphrasing):
"I have already read your book and understand all of your concerns, but there is nothing that you can do, write, nor say to stop A.I."
IOW, "Resistance is futile."
IMHO, many tech heads are naiive to believe that A.I. can simply be switched off, like a basic computer or that it's neural machine learning networks are incapable of independent self awareness nor creative thought. It already is... beyond our control.
The genie is out of the bottle and Pandora is out of her box, neither to return.

Nearly bailed after 5 minutes of Faux trivia reruns. How many right-wingers are here, still agreeing with those petty attacks? But, when I saw Trevor Noah's name, I stayed for the punch line. Sure, his left-wing audience gets the irony. But, IMO, the visuals were a bit too subtle and veiled for the average American audience. We're a stubborn, competitive society, who stands behind our convictions, right or wrong. So, blinded by our own ideology, we grasp for anything that supports our opinions. You know what every opinion has?

@humbledriver2536 1st of all, I apologize for prejudging your level of education, based upon your alias.
2nd I agree that black history should be taught as part of the regular curriculum in schools. In fact, I would add Native American history, because ALL cultures have different historical experiences, mostly because of the influences of others.
But on principle, I also disagree with teachers going rogue to teach whatever they please to students. I worked in IT at a JC. While servicing computers, I overheard computer science instructors making off topic political comments in their classrooms.
How about if Muslim teachers started indoctrinating students with Sharia law?
I suspect that most of your students because more interested in your black history teachings, because you had informed them that you were doing something naughty and that they shouldn't tell on you.
Suddenly, you became no different than them and they gobbled up everything you said.
Isn't that what's going on in ? They reject MSM, have been brainwashed by tRump to hate fellow American Dems, have been conditioned to become right wing bigots by their religious ministers illegally preaching politics from their pulpits, and don't know the difference between truth and Q-nut (Russian troll) propaganda because of what they consume from right wing echo chambers on social media.
IMO, EVERY grade school student should attend public schools in order to receive the same level of education for equal opportunities, prior to focusing upon their chosen careers with elective subject matter, including CRT.
Religion belongs in churches, not in public schools, unless it is chosen as part of curriculums of philosophy, sociology, etc.
But, going back to your original comment, I can't believe that you seriously think as a teacher that kids being out of school playing computer games all day for 2 semesters (or whatever it was) didn't adversely affect their academic scores.
Apparently, you are mostly driven by your own personal opinions, with little consideration for the greater POV.

I've been predicting this ever since tRump was let off the hook from being convicted during his 2nd impeachment and allowed to continue campaigning to fund raise and keep his cult riled up for civil war, if indicted by the DoJ, who have been complicit in the overthrow of Congress by tRump's 'loyalist' conspirators, saboteurs, and Q-nuts.
Garland's ignorance of expediency, plus MSM's anti-Biden punditry is enabling the downfall of our nation and the rise of a mafioso don's criminal 'family' to turn our democratic republic into an authoritarian dictatorship, with MTG being tRump's favored VP.
BTW, CHRIS, Liz never said that she would be the 'reformed' GOP's 2024 candidate. Why would she attempt to become the leader of the current motley crew of Congressional Q-nuts?
Liz simply stated that she would ensure that tRump doesn't become POTUS ever again. IMO, she's talking about his conviction and incarceration, before 2024. tRump will take the GQP down with him.
Then and only then will the GOP be reincarnated to Cheney's standards, a decade down the road. The Dems will take control of Congress and the White House in 2024. these predictions are inevitable and Liz knows it.

@Dbjjr26 No, I'm simply explaining scientific facts for simple minded people.
There's a big difference between having a small infection of a virus, similar to a mild flu, and dying of pneumonia.
If unvaccinated, some have died of flu, some have hardly noticed, depending upon their natural immune health. If vaccinated, only .3% of people who et infected with the COVID virus will end up being seriously ill enough to be hospitalized. The other 99.7% of infected COVID victims will end up in the hospital or possibly die. Get it?
I'm afraid of nothing, including my own death. But, as a 68 year old, single retiree, with RA immune issues, I prefer to not take foolish risks. This is still the only life I'll ever have and don't want to waste it on foolish stubbornism, like an impetuous brat.
The rest of your rant is a meaningless projection of your own ignorance.
It's your life at risk, unless you infect everyone else around you. People like you are also responsible for the last delta wave putting US back into masking and potential lockdowns. Then, you'll blame it in the 'fascist Biden administration' after he has done everything within his power to save lives and get life back to normal. Is your selfish will more important than our nation getting back to normal or do you want more mask laws and mandatory vaccinations?
630,000 deaths and lock downs haven't been enough for you?

IMO, organic farmers should be rewarded for their efforts, not shat upon by the likes of Beyer and Monsanto. The organic farmers should be able to sue those corporations for their loss of income, if their crops fail organic inspections due to contamination traced from neighboring fields. Those fields should have contamination free buffer zones around their perimeter. If these protections were put into place, safer alternatives to 'conventional' pesticides and GMOs would be implemented. That would protect our food chain and ensure healthy nutrition.
Besides, the problem is caused by overpopulation, not farmers who want to grow natural organic foods. The solution lies in mitigating overpopulation, especially in more vulnerable and underdeveloped areas, with education and freely available birth control, not growth hormones, antibiotics, battery farming, meat lots, nor producing more contaminated GMO frankenfood with less nutritional value. Humans and natural foods have successfully evolved together for millions of years. "If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it (just for money)."

@jeanmader2302 IMO, most people get rich by exploiting others until they are poor. It's all about feeding their own greed, not benefiting our country. This is exactly why corrupt 'rich' businessmen, like tRump make bad public servants, which is the duty of a POTUS. Biden understands the difference and is lifting up the downtrodden.
Poverty is created by ignorance, insufficient education, and shear bad luck. Many poor people have good hearts, so they share what little they have with others, until there's nothing more to share.
"It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the gates of heaven" (this atheist agrees).
Capitalism is pure greed. Greed is an unquenchable thirst.
Only heartless people would ignore fellow countrymen starving in the streets or reject children seeking asylum from ruthless drug cartels. It's uncivilized. Yet, this is the moral state of the USA, the wealthiest nation on earth. It's an embarrassment upon humanity.

F**k the 'boomer' BS, Adam. I'm a 72 year old never tRumper. Over the past decade, I've been a daily consumer of politics and a staunch keyboard warrior against tRumptarded propaganda.
Yes, the radical right wing, white nationalists, and old fogy Evangelical sheeple are dying off. But, there are just as many indoctrinated anarchistic radical militias within the GQP, who are actively planning civil war.
Some day, with luck, you too will become an old fart. But, look at Biden's most progressive, hi tech, BBB agenda that will push our nation ahead, 10 years into the future.

@Ilyas Ilyas So, your point is that you have been victimized by racism, so get back is a MF, right? I'm an old white guy and have had many black, brown, Asian, Mexican, and Muslim friends. I was brought up to respect all others as individuals. There are good and bad within all races and religions. I spend hours each day online, defending BLM's Constitutional right to peacefully protest. I counter attack white supremacists who blame the vandalism on blacks, Dems, and antifa.
Now, you're gonna spew your racial hatred in my direction? Yeah, I see hatred in the eyes of blacks and Mexicans because of how whites have discriminated against them.
This BS has to stop, brotha!

@reh0119 Yeah, after being married to a Thai gal, I get what you're saying, too. But, by stating, "America is racist," aren't you simply racially profiling Americans and tarring 1/2 a hemisphere containing multiple races and cultures with the same broad brush. How is that being any less of a racist than Americans making similar prejudicial judgements about Asians?
IMO, racism is simply another form of tribalism, which is overcome by visiting enough other tribes to realize that we're all humans, linked together by the same DNA, with roughly the same intelligence, needs, and desires. Eventually, we recognize that our similarities are greater than our differences. One major problem with most Americans is cultural isolation, due to lack of travel. Personally, I have greater respect for Asian cultures than my own, which appears to be a sentiment shared by yourself. So what if I don't practice what I've just preached? BR 🙏

@reh0119 Yes, human beings have been the world's apex predators for billions of years, prior to overpopulating the world and being force to live with ourselves. That's when 'civilization' began to make our lives easier via communication, trade, and cooperative lifestyles. Yet, we still squabble amongst ourselves. Since we've killed off most other predators, we turn on ourselves, just like the famous experiment studying the behavior of overpopulated rats, who eventually became cannibalistic. "It's a dog eat dog world."
I've chosen to reject the entire rat race and simply observe it safely from a remote wireless connection. This is my only participation with society and communication with mankind. Wild animals are much more honest, even rattlesnakes give fair warnings and never strike for pleasure.
Some 'enlightened' folks are already aspiring towards self-improvement. Others will never get beyond their primal instincts to conquer and behave as barbarians.
Considering the accelerating changes in climate, droughts, wildfires, water shortages, inevitable famine, and mass migrations across sovereign borders, I'm sure that everything will soon become apocalyptic and play out, just like the movies predict. It's sad to witness and I'm only comforted by knowing that I won't still be around when the SHTF. C'est la vie
Well done, spotting Aqualung! That album cover is the perfect image for my YT identity. Yes, I saw Tull in London during Ian's prime of the early '80s. Still have their concerts in my YT watchlists.
"I'm never too o-o-old to rock n ro-o-oll, but I'm still too young to die." lol!
Enjoyed the chat, but gotta get back to triggering the tRumptards.

"Desperate people resort to desperate measures."
Putin is behaving like a desperate dictator, grasping at straws to cling to power.
When has N Korea's military been battle tested since the Korean war?
How well trained are their generals in modern warfare tactics?
Do Koreans and Russians even speak the same language to coordinate their differing battle plans? Whose orders will their troops follow or will their leaders only argue via interpreters?
Why would Kim agree to sacrifice his finest troops for Putin's personal battle?
The only logical conclusions:
#1: Putin is out of artillery shells and 'cannon fodder'.
#2: Kim is willing to supply artillery shells for profit and eliminate the costs of feeding N Korean prisoners.
#3: Putin is being plagued by social unrest, due to Western sanctions and Ukraine's retaliatory counter attacks upon their homeland. Now, they are the frightened ones, cowering in basements.
#3: Putin' 'cannon fodder' is defecting to Ukraine, while mercenaries are dedicated to killing them, instead of fighting Ukrainian forces.
#4: F-16s, EU weaponry, and fresh, well trained, foreign forces are arriving to seriously kick Russians out of Ukraine.
#5: It is very telling that Xi isn't ordering his military to get in involved in this fool's folly.
Putin doesn't have a hope in hell of holding the ground he has stolen, and already knows it.

@diogenes5127 Typical small minded Trumptard distraction and misleading accusations against his opponents. Thanks to Trump's isolationist agenda, our nation has lost all credibility on the International stage. How can we preach against authoritarian regimes, while we have our own?
Our allies no longer trust us. Our foes, like Russia, Iran, N Korea, and China are laughing at US. World trade and supply lines are being disrupted by trade wars. Saudi Arabia (9/11 sponsor) is manufacturing our weaponry. Trump's reneging on the Iranian Nuclear Agreement has cause them to resume their nuclear arms program. Trump's abandonment of the Paris Climate Accord is a disgraceful global embarrassment, which only opens the floodgates for other nations to pollute the environment, causing sickness and deaths.
One World Government is nothing more than another right wing conspiracy theory. There already is an organisation called the United Nations, specifically dedicated to allowing nations to collaborate on the global stage. It's simply a higher level of governance, necessary to police rogue regimes by applying international sanctions, as with N Korea and Iran.
Why do small minded anarchists only want to tear down long established organizations, only to build their own little tribalistic ideologies?
Besides, a democratic society determines the laws, which already provides a voice to individuals. No need to disrupt nor reinvent the wheel.

@IAmTheRealBill The fact is, I was never talking about vaccines within the US. I was responding to the video link's data regarding India's Astrazenika cases of adverse side affects, which is what that commentor was pushing.
There's a gaping hole in the messaging about this entire subject. VACCINES DON'T STOP VIRUSES, THE AUTOIMMUNE SYSTEM DOES.
The vaccines are only triggering the immune system to attack specific viruses. That trigger can happen by being infected via aerial contact, physical touch, or by injecting a dormant, harmless version of the targeted virus, aka vaccine.
The longer a virus is in circulation, the more time it has to mutate and adapt. Perhaps, it even becomes resistant to previous vaccinations. Who knows.
Therefore, the immune system needs to 'see' the infection in order to ward it off and suppress it. Meanwhile, while not ill, the vaccinated person s mildly infected and potentially contagious to others.
FFS, I've only got a HS education from 1970 and this shit is obvious to me. Why is everyone acting so stupid about simple scientific knowledge?

@WalkiTalki On the other hand, Russia as thousands more nuclear weapons than the US, plus hypersonic, low altitude missile systems. They would be the first to strike, if Putin is cornered.
That's why Biden has wisely not provided US boots on the ground, nor long range Patriot missile systems, until now.
IMHO, you're correct that our US nuclear deterrent renders Russia's threat of nuclear war to be a suicidal mission, if put into action.
This is a very dangerous situation and I'm very thankful that we have a responsible POTUS, who accepts the advice of the Pentagon, and has the guts to stand toe to toe with Putin, without escalating the situation.
Kennedy did the same against Khrushchev during the Cuban missile crisis.

@namename6797 BS! tRump set it all up and left the Afghan government without the means to defend itself, just to dump it all on Biden. The agreement was that the US military would allow the Taliban to control everything, except for the cities, until a 5/1/2021 US troop withdrawal, which would be Biden's problem to execute.
tRump unleashed 5,000 ISIS, Al Qaeda, and Taliban leaders from a Pakistani prison for terrorists. They had a whole year to organize their coup without US obstruction.
The Afghan Security Forces had no ammo to defend themselves against the Taliban forces, so they simply defected, as soon as our troops evacuated from Bagram airbase.
The Afghan government officials knew that the inevitable was happening and suggested destroying documents.
The Afghan government didn't have a chance, regardless of who was in charge.
tRump set the trap for both the Afghan government and President Biden, then relished in his own created mayhem.
He's responsible for the entire mess. Biden was his fall-guy whose hand was forced to make all the tough decisions. Yet, no one could have done a better, more responsible job.

@mndsph4530 At 69 years of age, I must disagree. Most young people are overly confident, too idealistic, and motivated by narcissism. They're focused upon proving who they are, without much empathy nor sympathy for others. So how can they be qualified to serve the needs of others?
The 'new blood' GQP Freedom Caucus in the US Congress only want to create chaos and dysfunction, instead of adhering to the righteous vision of our Founding Fathers and their Constitution, which is what has made America great to begin with.
I grew up during the '60s hippy generation of rebellion and enlightenment. I still hold on to those youthful values. But, I'm old enough to understand that parents need to have dependable jobs and homes to support their families.
I support President Biden's administration, because they are pushing the most progressive anti-climate change policies, education for job skills, and basing their decisions upon scientific facts, not blind faith.
Yes, change is life's only constant and time never stands still. So it is only proper for young people to hold previous generations accountable and correct their mistakes, especially regarding corruption.
But, with age comes wisdom and the need to leave behind a worthy legacy. Old folks have already been there and have experienced setbacks, obstacles, and failures that the youth never even consider nor could imagine. Why should the youth always need to learn these things the hard way?
What could be more ideal than allowing wisdom to guide youthful energy along the proper path? By working together, no mountain is too great to overcome and no river is too wide to cross.

IOW, Republicans voted in Citizens United and refuse to eliminate dark $ from our politics. Yet now, their Q-nuts are decrying our government being run by a secret cabal.
"A cabal is a group of people who are united in some close design, usually to promote their private views or interests in an ideology, a state, or another community, often by intrigue and usually unbeknownst to those who are outside their group." -wikipedia.
Repukes are completely unaware of their own hypocrisy. They lie, cheat, and destroy our democracy, while accusing Dems of the same. That's why it is so important for the sake of our nation that Dems hold the Congressional majority.
VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO!!

@MrManny075 Let's start with your lies and hypocrisy.
#1: Yes, Bush & Cheney lied about WMDs. But, Hussein ad already used chemical weapons against his own people. The US didn't invade Iraq in order to make it a part of the USA. It was supposed to be a humanitarian mission. Our minimal troop presence is only to provide intel and support against ISIS, who have backfilled Al Qaeda's absence, thanks to the US routing them from the region.
"Madeleine Albright killed half a million kids " BS! That's not what the Secretary of State does. They only represent the will of our POTUS.
"Risk nuclear war to save freedom are out of your mind,"
No one is risking nuclear war, except for Putin. Yes, he has lots of nukes, but so do many other countries, who would immediately retaliate if he pushed the nuke button. He can't destroy all other countries without destroying his own. That's obvious suicide and his own military leaders wouldn't allow that to happen. IMO, Putin has placed himself in a very dangerous situation within his own government.
Stop feeding the warmongering with your own fears.
"So it's all Putin fault? he clearly asks Nato to stop expanding to Russia borders"
Yes, it's 100% Putin's fault, because he has no jurisdiction beyond his own borders and no right to impose demands for bordering nations to disarm nor reject NATO membership.
You need to stop talking trash and leave US leadership to President Biden, who knows his adversaries and the consequences of misjudgment very well.
That's why he's our POTUS and you're not.

WHY ARE MSM OUTLETS SO BLIND TO SEE WHAT REALLY HAPPENED WITH THE AFGHAN TROOP WITHDRAWAL!!?
#1: 9 months before the 2020 election, trump was being impeached by Congress, so he already knew then that he was going to lose the election.
#2: Out of spite, trump negotiated 'a deal' with the Taliban that IF they would stop attacking our troops, then he would:
a) Release 5,000 ISIS, Al Qaeda, and Taliban terrorist leaders form a Pakistani prison.
b) Drawdown US troops' presence to a minimal 2,500,,, before the election
c) Pull out ALL US troops by March 5, 2021 UNDER BIDEN'S TERM TO TAKE THE POLITICAL HIT FOR AN INEVITABLE MESSY WITHDRAWAL.
d) Then, the Taliban could have Afghanistan back, without firing a shot, which is exactly what happened and every Afghan government official knew that 'resistance was futile.' THAT is why it immediately folded
TRUMP BETRAYED 20 YEARS' WORTH OF OUR TROOPS' BLOOD SACRIFICES FOR PERSONAL REVENGE AND POLITICAL CAMPAIGN BRAGGING POINTS ABOUT NO ARRACKS.
But, all we have seen and heard from MSM is over 2 years worth of a video loop of one unpredictable moment, with panicking Afghans trying to ride the 1st evacuation cargo plane out of Karzai airport.
Our troops had already slipped out of Bagram air base during the middle of the night, without locals even realizing it. But, Biden protected 125,000 civilian contractors from being beheaded. That also never gets reported.
For 3 1/2 years, the world has only been reminded of, "Biden's disastrous Afghan withdrawal.
GET THE REPORTING RIGHT, FFS!!

Yes, Americans have the right to assemble into a peaceful demonstration in protest of gov't. But, I thought the organizers of a peaceful protest were required to obtain a permit from local officials, so that sufficient law enforcement could be made available to protect persons and property.
Furthermore, these protestors were not adhering to health and safety guidelines, therefore they deliberately created a health and safety hazard. So, I doubt that any responsible local officials would have issued permits for such gatherings.
Under these circumstances, why didn't law enforcement disperse these lawless crowds, with tear gas if necessary? Why did they idly stand by and allow an organized, concentrated petri dish of Covid-19 to spread throughout their cities? Were they simply afraid of the few who were carrying ARs? This was a mob, not a peaceful demonstration of citizens exercising their right of civil disobedience AND THEY GOT AWAY WITH IT!

@Tachouz Aloha! Thank you for asking. I wanted to know what started all of the DNC's resistance against Tulsi. So last night , I managed to find this, which not only explains what happened, but that she was aware of the potential consequences of her actions.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJuyOuHM8zo&list=PLsWW8mIXPMVyMk6f2hPkh37-S144Rq78A&index=3&t=2s
Also, please notice that what she did was strickly a matter of being honest and abiding by the DNC rules.
Last night, I also discovered an email from Trump in my Junk Email folder, titled "Battle for America". It showed a blacked-out silhouette of Tulsi, with a caption asking "Who is this woman?" and the usual lies that she would destroy our nation. So, now she is also fighting Trump, as well.
In other words this 'mystery woman' is battling corruption on both sides of the political divide. Corruption has no chance of defeating Tulsi. They have no idea who they are dealing with!
She doing this for all Americans, but nno one can do it alone. Please join the "Battle for America" and support Tulsi Gabbard.🙏
Thank you😎

Chris, please stop beating yourself up over a dip in viewership. Your concerning data set is during the pandemic shutdowns, decreased spending on 'trivial' pursuits, like SBCs (/sic), and a myriad of conflicting factors. Ppl are focused upon their inner primal fears for survival, like putting food on their tables while unemployed.
Your content, delivery, and production work are meticulously flawless. IMO, it's the best maker channel on YT, among many other serious efforts. Your studio s coming along nicely and your projected future content sounds great.
As a fan of CM4, I feel that many other makers would be very interested in seeing a whole series of reviews on the variety of 3rd party carrier boards. Yes, I realize that Jeff Geerling is a main player in that sector, but his projects are highly specialized, instead of average applications.
Perhaps some food for thought.
Just keep being you and doing what you do so well and your fans will follow. ;-)

Veeerry Cool, Chris!
As it happens, I also have a Surface Pro II, which apparently has a HAL too old for Win11. So, I'm still on Win 10 and using the Surface's touchscreen with PureData as a touch GUI for master laser imagery controls, plus an external 15" touchscreen GUI and a DAW for communicating with various MIDI devices, including the Teensy 4 Laser Synth, which is a connected to the projector.
This video is veeerry exciting, 'cause I'm pretty sure that all of those apps will also run on Linux. But, like you, I would prefer a dual boot configuration for testing, before diving into the unknown.
Been 8 years since I was a PC tech, so I'm wondering whether Windows needs to be blown away, 2 partitions created, then both operation systems reinstalled; Or, do you use Disk Manager from inside Windows to repartition the drive to add Mint; Or, do you create a VM for Mint and have them running simultaneously?
Thanks!

CONGRATS on #500, Chris! 🤯🥳
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
So, what have you scheduled for #1000? 🙄
Who knows what those SBCs will be up to by then? Not to mention whether you've managed to teach your ducks Python, eh? Will it be renamed to 'Cobra'?
I sincerely hope that we are all still "keeping safe & well" to find out.
When will you start selling those 'magic remote controlled' shirts in your shop? How about a model with smooth PWM color mixing?
💡MOOD SHIRTS! (dibs on the royalties)
Give her a flash of pink and say no more, if ya catch my drift, Gov.
Just imagine, sitting in a crowded West End club, with all the blokes, wearing your 'magic shirts', connected to the DJ via bluetooth, flashing colors like a synchronized drone swarm.
We'll be filthy rich in no time! 😜
Cheers! 😎

@jenifaglore9966 BFD! tRump claimed to be filthy rich, paid no taxes, and gave away $2Trilllion of tax revenues to his upper 2% Wall Street cronies. Were you decrying his irresponsible giveaways?
If Bernie is so rich, then he will be among the $400K+ earners, who will have their taxes raised. THEY (aka, Dems) are funding the INVESTMENTS into OUR infrastructure, healthcare, education, skills training, industry, smart grid, broadband, and climate change mitigations by TAXING THE FILTHY RICH, cutting their loopholes, and safe havens.
IT'S ALL ACCOUNTED FOR AND COSTS YOU NOTHING!!
I'm very pleased that this administration is being more responsible with climate change and the future generations who will inherit what we are doing today.

Hope springs eternal, but the fact is that the DoJ defends these people's freedom of speech, instead of the well-being of our nation.
Otherwise, tRump would have been locked up years go, instead of still holding anti-government rallies to rile up and weaponize his anarchistic cult to take up arms, if/when he ever gets indicted.
How can AG Garland and the DoJ be so incompetent and ignorant that they have effectively enabled a traitor to corrupt the Congressional GQP, state legislators, our election laws, and undermine our national security by stealing top secret classified nuclear documents? How many of those missing documents were sold to MBS for $2Billion, under the guise of Jared's 'investment firm'?
tRump is the blatant leader of these enemies within, yet the DoJ always gives him a free pass to carry on, only encouraging others to follow in his path. /smh

Yes! Thank you. First this program shows a poll among 'those who disapprove of Biden's performance', w/o revealing how the approvers poll. Then, she interviews a GOP governor, so that he can get his licks in. Then, it's skyrocketing COVID cases, instead of the reduction of deaths from 7.8 per 100K to 0.13. That's a HUGE success story that none of the news networks ever mention.
Then they HAD to remind everyone of one bad day of evacuating 125,000 civilians in the middle of a terrorist infested coup. 23 US troops were blown up by one suicide bomber, after being warned of an imminent attack on Abbey Gate, but they stood their posts to allow British troops to escort their citizens inside.
By comparison, on average, 1,800 US citizens are murdered by guns EVERY 3 WEEKS in their own neighborhoods.
Besides, tRump set up the Afghan trap for Biden to take the fall, after he freed 5000 Taliban, ISIS, and Al Qaeda leaders from a Pakistani prison, just as long as they didn't attack our troops during the 2020 election runup.

@cs21uncc Those on the left have served our nation well, just as our Founders intended. The other two have only inflicted harm and obstructionism, creating a dysfunctional government.
Biden saved our nation from more tRumpism. Pelosi is the only one with the courage to hold tRump accountable for treason. Mitch has no solutions nor agenda, except for obstructing our nation's progress.
tRump is a political idiot, an embarrassment to our nation on the world's stage, a life-long, lying cheating, whoremongering, mafioso mob boss, who hijacked the GOP and filled it's Congress with GQP seditious conspirators.
Young blood anarchists like MTG, Boebart, Gaitz, Jordan...? NO!!! Send them all home or to jail!
AOC's policies? Too extreme for the mainstream, scares the bejesus out of the majority and nationally unelectable.
I'd like to see Beto O'Rouke make a 2024 run. He's energetic, inspirational, good-hearted, and honest.

IMHO, Linux has been suffering from the lack of leadership, like Gates & Jobs, to rally developers around a specific distro. It appears to be thousands of individuals doing their own thing.
It's a chicken & egg dilemma. "Those who are there are there." But AFAIK, there's no a single Linux distro that dominates the market enough for developers to hang their hats on.
Insufficient centralized collaboration = chaos = today's Linux, unfortunately. End users simply want an OS that just works (w/o developing drivers) and is compatible with others' software in order to collaborate online, in the office, and the world.
Sorry to violate your manifesto, but I've sincerely tried migrating away from Windows to Linux and have failed miserably, simply because the apps I need aren't available in Linux. It is what it is, until it isn't.
Happy Holidays Everyone!

I did a poll of my own, today. But, it's not a MSM voter poll. It's a poll of subscribers for candidates' websites, because these indicate active supporters of each campaign. Yeah, yeah, anyone can subscribe to anyone else's channel. But, honestly, what's the percentage?
So, for whatever it is worth, here are the results:
Candidate Subscribers
Bernie Sanders 253,000
Tulsi Gabbard 141,000
Andrew Yang 126,000
Pete Buttigieg 88,200
Elizabeth Warren 13,600
Joe Biden 8,900
Kamala Harris 7,090
Cory Booker 3,880
Amy Klobuchar 597
This paints an entirely different picture of who the leaders are. So, which is more accurate? Subscriber count or MSM polls?

@apveening Ok, now I'm a bit confused and intrigued with your methodology. So, I'm trying to wrap my head around the info you've provided.
"..but I still use the µSD to boot, once a week..."
That implied that you normally boot from the SSD, but for some unknown reason, you need to change the boot device once a week to uSD, which is normally used to store your data amd needs to be backed up onto SSD nightly.
But, now I'm thinking that your only booting from uSD, so that's where your Home folder resides by default.
Apparently, some app like a data logger is constantly writing to your Home folder, 24/7. Therefore the RPi is never shutdown and the uSD is only removed to be replaced whenever it inevitably fails, right?
So, the SSD is only being used as a non-bootable data drive, because your uSD soon runs out of space, right?
But you still need to reboot once a week after running update && upgrade, right?
If all of the above is correct, then I have 3 suggestions, from most preferred to least:
#1) Boot from the SSD, instead of the uSD. Chris just demonstrated how to do that AFTER BACKING UP THE SSD'S EXISTING DATA. That automagically relocates your Home folder and data onto the SSD, eliminating the need for nightly backups, then deleting the old data on the uSD. No need for the slower, volatile uSD at all.
#2) Reconfigure your data logger app to store directly onto the SSD, instead of inside your Home folder on the uSD to eliminate the need for nightly backup/deletion routine. This also increases the lifespan of your uSD.
#3) Relocate your Home folder onto the SSD so that everything is being stored on the SSD, again eliminating the need for nightly backup/deletion routine.
In all scenarios (including your current one), if your data is mission critical, then I suggest that you still establish a backup plan to use another large (USB) data drive to backup your SSD.
I have a USB thumb drive permanently plugged into my wifi router (inside my firewall) as a NAS, available from any computer in my home where all of my important data is safely stored and then shared across all devices.
Works great, especially if the local drive on any one device fails, as you've recently experienced.
Admittedly, I should still have a backup plan in place for the NAS drive. My bad.
Hope these suggestions help to simplify your current procedures.
Best regards.

@apveening "Weekly (automatic) reboots as in the past my RPi got unstable after a bit more than a week."
Sounds like a necessary workaround of an underlying data corruption issue that should be resolved,,, in an ideal world, if that ever has existed. Was that the same on all of your RPi4Bs? Perhaps it was due to defective RAM on one? 🤷♂
"I don't really fancy backing up 2 TB every day.." I wasn't suggesting that. I was suggesting eliminating the daily backups entirely. If you're referring to maintaining a backup of the SSD onto a remote drive, then I would suggest using OMV to perform incremental backups, instead of full daily backups.
Of course, you know far more than I regarding what works best within your own use case scenario and we've strayed away from the initial points of debate regarding the need to access the uSD reader while using the RPi5 with the NVMe HAB and you've effectively explained your reasons for doing so. So, I'll politely bow out of this discussion.
Nevertheless, I appreciate and thank you for the respectful academic exchange of possible alternatives. "Different strokes for different folks", as some feller once said.
Bottom line, If you're pleased with your personal setup, then that's all that matters.

Andrew Young Then, your definitions of 'left' and 'right' are very different to mine. Dictators are authoritarian fascists, by definition. Left and right are opposing political parties, the yin and yang balance of our political system, not the system, itself.
If you can't see what Trump is up to, then it is you who has your cranium so far up Trump's posterior that you are deaf, dumb, and blind.
Trump uses mafioso extortion to bully his opponents, "I want you to do me a favor." (President Velinski's perfect phone call), punishing our allies by pulling funding from UN, NATO, WHO, et al. His legal henchman, Bill Barr passes out 'get out of jail' cards like candy to Trump's 'family'.
Taxes are strong armed robbery? Paying taxes to fund our government's vast services is a patriotic duty of every citizen who benefits from national security, public education, healthcare, infrastructure, social security, EPA regulations, and maintaining a lawful society.
I had absolutely nothing to do with slavery, the KKK, nor racism of any kind. It is a disgraceful scar upon my own race. My mother raised me to respect everyone. My lifetime has taught me to respect all life, especially wildlife (above humanity, the scourge of the earth).
Political parties sway with the polls, as times and situations constantly change. Citizens United has opened the Pandora's box of political corruption, the greatest assault upon our democratic republic. Now, politicians pander to superPACs and corporate lobbyists, instead of serving the needs of individuals.
Mankind has evolved to the top of the food chain, because of its ability to adapt and overcome those challenges.
But, personal greed and the love of money has distracted mankind from being stewards of the land to become destroyers of the earth. We MUST change our ways and start using our technical knowledge for ecological restoration and preservation of natural resources and wildlife habitat. IOW, humans need to start wiping their own asses.
But, we are currently faced with defending our nation from tyranny at the ballot box. Trump has already destroyed the Republican party. Another 4 years will destroy our nation.
Just look at last nights debacle of a debate. Trump simply couldn't be controlled nor was he willing to follow the rules. That's Trump in a nutshell, an impetuous spoiled 3 year old, who defies every rule. This behavior is far below the office of the POTUS.
But, Trump's corrupt activities are under investigation and new revelations rear their ugly heads nearly everyday. Trump's own base is dying from attending his irresponsible rallies. Truly patriotic Republicans, like the Lincoln Project and retired generals, are abandoning Trump's sinking ship, just to save our nation.
You should do the same.

Andrew Young There's no such thing as 'over the top righteousness'; only right, wrong, or mistaken. But, there is self-righteousness, which is a misguided belief in imposing divine judgement upon others. My judgement is based upon common sense and decency, not second guessing the will of Santa Claus.
Please stop throwing around terminology that you clearly don't understand. It's not Antqueefah, it's Antifa as in anti-fa(scist). IOW, you just falsely accused them of being the same as 'fascist'.
You actually believe that BLM has no right to protest centuries of racial discrimination?
Obviously you have no problems with white supremacists, private unregulated militias, anarchists, Boogaloo Boys, Proud Boys, nor hundreds of other good ole boy terrorists, who are fueling the fires of hatred to literally overthrow our government.
You offer no solutions, no compromise, no reason; only small-minded tribalistic racism to fuel the fires of hatred. You are part of the problem that is burning our nation to the ground, just as guilty as BLM or anyone else.
Let me guess, you would send in the troops to restore law and order, just like an authoritarian dictator. You would incarcerate the direct descendants of the very same slaves, who enriched the lives of white supremacists and wealthy landlords. America is only great because of their blood, sweat, and tears. So, your solution is to increase the weight of your jackboot on their necks?
You don't care about political corruption, as long as you can profit from it. Trumptards make me want to puke.

@anthonymagliaro4791 Typical condescending bullying from a Trumptard. Wrap your pea brain around this. Most of our consumer goods like electronics and clothing come from China, right? In a trade war, tariffs on Chinese goods will cause the US consumers to pay more, let's say ~10%. That's a 10% increase in our cost of living w/o a 10% increase in wages. In fact, Republicans even fight against a livable minimum wage. So, who loses?
Secondly, you heard about the Amazon Rainforest (the world's lungs) being burned off, right? That's partly so that Brazilian farmers can raise soy beans to sell to China, instead of American farmers.
Thirdly, China's industries are highly subsidized by their government, which has unlimited funding from a far greater population. In a trade war, we don't have a chance in hell of competing. Their production technology and low wage, state educated labor force is far more advanced than we could become in a decade. China has already left US in their dust and you don't even know it.

@watchfulrasputin Perhaps I need to point out that the Canadian border (except between Canada and the USA) is ocean. At the moment, there is competition between USA and Russia to claim shipping rights over the North Pole, as soon as the ice melts. There is an ongoing cat and mouse game between US and Russian submarines. Our missiles surrounding Russia's western border are for the purpose of protecting our NATO allies from Russian invasion, as we have seen happening in the Ukraine and Crimea.
Kennedy stopped Russia from installing nukes in Cuba. Last time I checked, Ontario is part of Canada. Why would neutral countries have Russian missile bases, making them targets? Surely, sir, it is yea who jests.
Just for the record, I disagree with nukes altogether. But, it is what it is. Now, there's China, India, Israel, and others to worry about, including Iran and N Korea.
It will take a very cool head (and a very persuasive woman) to de-escalate nukes. Tulsi2020.

@budskrilla2u133 Yeah, I'm only 30 miles from Ft Huachuca, as the crow flies and occasionally see illegals wandering through the neighborhood. But, most of them are harmless.That doesn't mean cartel activity is non-existent.
Admittedly, a wall is very effective in urban areas. Not so much along the Rio Grande and mountainous terrain. Also, it can be easily breached with a grappling hook and rope or cut with a torch or grinder. It's nothing more than a stupid campaign promise.
Personally, I have a problem with blocking natural migration trails for wildlife. IR surveillance, motion detection, drones, and etc can notify ICE to stop illegal crossings.
I believe the problem isn't at our border, but in the countries from which the refugees are fleeing. Cartels are terrorizing families who don't contribute to the gang. We need to provide security to their governments' officials so that law and order can be restored. Voila! No more need to flee home. No more refugee problem at our border, because it is nipped in the bud. But, we still have a broken immigration system, regarding DACA, etc.
You say that you wish both sides would be more centrist, like Tulsi. Then, you start railing against the Dems with typical Trumptard talking points.
No 401k, just an earned guaranteed pension til I die.
Trump lost the election by 5,000,000 votes, last I heard. I have no doubt that Russians manipulated the opinions of voters with online activity. No, they didn't hack into our voting machines. They hacked directly into the minds of people. It used to be called brainwashing. Just look at how divided we have become. No American voters are traitors, trying to destroy our country. All of us want to be proud, yet we behave so shamefully.
Finally, I could care less about my 'likes' (btw, you can't like your own comment), 'cause hermits don't give a damn about what anyone else thinks. The Hermit simply speaks his mind.
Aloha!

@watchfulrasputin Your knowledge of Russian and Crimean history is very impressive, Comrade. Since I was only 2 years old in 1954, I was more focused upon riding my tricycle than Crimea. My bad.
Actually, I had no idea that you would be referring to Russian missiles along the US/Canadian border. Since both countries have been long term allies, fighting side by side in wars, it is also unthinkable that Canada would allow Russian missiles along it's border. IMHO, such a proposition could only come from a Russian's POV. That also explains your defense of Putin, etc. I commend you on your grasp of the English language.
With regards to your remaining comments regarding climate change, de-escalation of arms, super powers agreeing upon a non-aggression pact, and people being bond together with a spirit of cooperation and friendliness I couldn't agree more, Comrade. I'm still an old hippie at heart.
Aloha!

Great idea! I already have 5 acres, with a well, 4 bdrm house, and electricity. So, I'm fine. I've also researched environmentally sustainable aquaponic gardening and monolithic domes. I've even finalized the designs with 3D construction drawings for a multidome complex. But, what's the point of proceeding with all that effort and expense, while others would only scoff and criticize? Who gives a damn?
Yes, I have tried to include others, but "no one flies upon the wings of another man's dreams." So, who would be as committed, trustworthy, and compatible within a group? Who makes those decisions regarding who is welcomed and who must leave? Who makes the rules? Would the property's owner become a dictator, or would the collective community, who have invested their sweat equity, decide by the majority's vote? Would all votes have equal weight or be balanced according to individual levels of contribution to the whole?
Are the members of the community escaping society's problems or simply reinventing the wheel from scratch? How do they manage their own sewage, wastes, power consumption, water purification, etc?
Why could possibly motivate The Hermit to abandon his carefree solitary lifestyle to take on these man made hassles? Utopian ideologies are great until put into practice.

@frx1p32dz2 I don't care. I don't want my browsing to be tracked in order to target me with intrusive advertising. I'm sick of junk mail, corporate intrusion, and Big Brother watching everything I do. Its all an invasion of personal privacy. I only want to do my own research, purchase whatever I like, then be left alone. AND I hate cloud storage, Cortana, Alexa, Siri, and any other device that has the ability to eves drop on me! Every time I look at my phone, Google is nagging me to give permissions to sync contacts after I have intentionally disabled that functionality. I double-checked my settings and found over a hundred security certificates from all over the world, giving root access to my phone. It has never been used for browsing nor business, so how did they get there?
I managed my life quite well before they came along and don't need them now.

RDE Lutherie This site is about 'Explaining Computers', not your arena for personal attacks against its viewers. It is not about you. So yes, you are being very disrespectful to everyone here, regardless of Chris' nationality. Is he not the most decent person you have known? So, why don't you follow his lead?
Once again, I find myself agreeing with your descriptions of 'Mericuns, just not the hubris behind it. Having lived in Europe, you know exactly what I'm talking about when referring to the 'ugly American', so you should know better than to conduct yourself in such a manner. You resort to childish name calling, referring to me as a being a 'snowflake', whatever that's supposed to mean, but I'm sure that it is not intended to be complimentary.
I live beyond the influences of society and observe it's madness very closely via the Internet. I am very aware of worldly matters and choose to engage with it at my own discretion, when I see injustices, such as in these comments.
Just reviewed the comments and see that a cordial exchange was derailed upon the arrival of FRx1 P32Dz, who has been far more vulgar than you and has been baiting you, just to reduce you to his level. If you want to fight him, then don't be duped into a mud slinging match.
Otherwise, sounds like we have a lot in common 😎. Who'da thunkit?

Preident Biden has ACTUALLY been reminding US the , "WE ARE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!"
But, tRumptards still don't get it.
FYI, it has been President Biden's leadership that has avoided MAGA defaulting on paying Congress' own bill. That would have roiled the global economy, harmed the US credit rating, and increased everyone's interest rates. But, Biden gave McCarthy a lecture on governing and sent him back to approve the allocations.
It was President Biden, who presented a Border Security bill to Congress on day one.
It was Biden, who negotiated with Republican leaders to write the current bills to fund Ukraine, Israel, and Border Security.... the one Mafioso don attempted to kill for political gain.
tRump is the notorious Liar in Chief, convicted fraud, and divider of our nation and you know it.

@kirstinalphabet796 You know nothing about me, so don't ass-u-me BS.
FYI, (not that it's any of your business) I'm 72, retired, own my home on 5 acres of foothill property, and living very comfortably on SS + my earned union pension. I have Kahlua in my morning coffee, wine with lunch, and monitor the world fevery day rom the end of my secure wifi connection.
I choose to perform my patriotic duties by being a keyboard warrior to trigger, and debunk tRumptarded trolls' BS, while supporting the Biden/Harris agenda and the Harris/Walz ticket to ensure that Mafioso don, the 2-bit con and 34 count convicted fraud never gets back into the Oval office, with his Project 2025 agenda to overthrow our democracy. If Garland weren't such a coward, the POS would have been in orison 2 years ago, instead of the House being infiltrated with know-nothing 'loyalist' saboteurs and seditious conspirators of Jan 6 to steal our election.
I don't have any problems making ends meet and am no one else's problem.
If you have any problems with me exercising my 1st amendment rights, then YOU are America's problem.

@xenulus5282 "what do you say about the leftists in office" I say that your 'leftists' are mostly America's mainstream moderates, who are the only REAL patriotic US citizens willing to defend our nation against "radical, authoritarian,. right wing extremists, anarchists, Q-nuts, insurrectionists, white supremacist militias, facists, and tRumptarded traitors."
"Kamala Harris, who actively encouraged and called for the continuation of looting and destruction of businesses, and the public harassment of conservatives?"
Right wing media lies. Our Constitution provides the right for US citizens to PEACEFULLY protest against racial discrimination and black folks being murdered by police, without a judge, legal representation, nor jury. "No justice no peace." If you lived inside darker skin, then you would understand where the fault lies.
BLM only wanted to exercise their rights to peacefully protest, just as MLK preached. But, their protests were undermined by white nationalist vandals, looters, and arsonists. Treat minorities with equal respect and these problems cease to exist.
"Your outrage is ideologically based."
I'm outraged that tRump has divided our nation, with 6 years of lies and the demonization of fellow US citizens. I'm outraged that a fascist idiot has fermented such hatred, bigotry, and lawlessness by conning naiive Evangelicals with nothing more than BS rhetoric.
My only political ideology comes straight from the Founding Fathers' vision for a civil society, NOT from a notorious egotistical, silver spoon fed, lying, cheating, irresponsible, pussy-grabbing, whoremongering, tax dodging, multiple bankrupting, mafioso godfather/wannabe dictator/king of the world, who believes that he is above the law.
"As long as it's your side acting like dictators and authoritarians you're ok with it."
Now, you've really blown it. I'm not interested in pitting one 'side' of America against the other. Hermits are independent of society because we are independent thinkers, not sheeple. You seem to think that politics is some kind of team sport, preferably without rules of engagement, only Faux shit shows and mayhem. US vs THEM for profiteering off of viewers' ignorance.
YOUR side is deliberately attempting to overthrow the US government by passing restrictive voting laws for a competitive advantage, because YOUR side is so repulsive that THEY can only win by lying and cheating.
YOUR side refuses to legislate against illegal immigration, gun violence, income inequality, nor climate change. YOUR side only knows how to complain, yet refuse to allow the other side to provide legislative solutions to these serious problems, which are plaguing our nation.
YOUR side wants to take away women's rights to choose their future, Social Security benefits for seniors, affordable healthcare, and affordable higher education.
I believe in the Founding Father's intentions for a multiple party political system for the majority to choose and a government with checks and balances to avoid being ruled by YOUR side's wannabe authoritarian dictators and monarchs.
tRumpism is the cancer of US politics, but you're so full of his propaganda and TDS that your brain has become wired bas ackwards.
You need to pull your head out of tRump's ass and stop watching Faux Spews, who deliberately stir up the shitheads of society for Putin's benefit.
I'm not anyone's problem. YOU are my nation's enemy from within, an anarchist, and traitor.
TRUMP IS A TRAITOR! HANG HIM BY THE NECK ON PENCE'S GALLOWS!!

Dak Lamerbusch Bernie is a great guy, with some good ideas. But, they're the same ideas that he ran on during the 2016 election and lost to Hillary. Instead of gracefully bowing out of the race, he pulled votes away from her, which was instrumental to giving us Trump. As Bernie says, "Enough is enough!"
Dems need a candidate with charisma, energy, feasible agendas, Congressional experience to get things done, a sharp wit, and a fearless nature to counter Trump's demeaning insults and bullying. I believe that Elizabeth Warren is that candidate.

@maggiegarden9897 Actually, I'm just a sensible old hippie, who is so passionate about mankind's destruction of wildlife and natural habitat that I have rejected society's madness. Now, I live comfortably alone in the hills on 5 acres with no fences upon which wildlife can live and roam freely. Although I paid for the deed, I'm only its temporary caretaker. How can I possibly own something 13 billion years old?
My happiness lies in watching the rabbits, roadrunners, deer, etc. Nature is real and fascinating.
My only contact with mankind is via YouTube, where I observe it from afar and voice my concerns. Often, I confront nasty, foul mouthed trolls, but try to keep it civil. Hopefully, a few others will listen to the common sense I try to promote. This is my only purpose.
Yes, if I were young again, I would have done many things differently. But, I'd rather deal with the present than longing over the past, which will never return. Hopefully, we learn from our past experiences in order to plan for a better future and are not too old to work towards those goals.
We're not 'only' old hippies. Hippies were a generation of people who rejected wars and greed, while promoting peace, love, and freedom of thought. Those Utopian ideals are beyond the imaginations of the status quo. Wave your freak flag with pride. Today's world needs more hippies.
BTW, you can drop the 'Mr', but I appreciate the respect.
Peace out, Maggie Garden.😎

@michaelbraun2462 Both-sides-ism isn't about being aware of both sides of an issue.
I'm talking about MSM and pundits equalizing Dems VS tRumptarded traitors like, "Well, both sides are guilty of the same BS behavior." as this guest just did.
I'M F'ING SICK OF IT!!
Dems and Republicans are NOTHING alike. Pathetic remarks like that only discourage US voters from paying attention, being aware of how close we are to losing our democratic republic, and not bothering to vote.
I'm sick of hearing bigoted pundits complaining about what President Biden and Dems shoulda/coulda/woulda done, while they don't know JS about his intel.
Biden has saved our nation, our economy, and millions of lives. Yet, all we hear about is his age, instead of tRump's treasonous criminality.
"Oh, they're all the same..." /smh
FYI, I'm a never tRumper and daily YT keyboard warrior, who confronts, insults, shames, and disgraces tRumptarded traitors. I know all of their stupid clichés and one liners, because that's all they've got. I watch their Q-nuts making fools of themselves in the House, while attempting to sabotage our elected President Biden's agenda on behalf of a wannabe fascist dictator and corrupt mafioso don.
So, don't accuse me of not knowing their side of the aisle.

I'm confused. First Sgt. Maxey states that BLM has a legitimate reason to protest police injustice. Then, he says that anarchists move in to disrupt the peaceful demonstrations with violence and lawless mayhem (sounds right to me). So, that forces police to move in to restore order and they tell the protesters to go home (makes sense?).
So, the situation is that the anarchists are spoiling the protesters' peaceful march, so obviously some of the peaceful protesters would confront the anarchists, creating a street riot. In the midst of that, the police (the ones being protested against for their brutality) move in an tell the protesters to go home.
Would you expect BLM to obey police orders to go home during a nonviolent peaceful protest?
HELL NO! So why would they be more inclined to stop fighting the anarchists during the heat of the moment?
So, Sgt. Maxey changes from differentiating between peaceful BLM protesters and destructive anarchists, then he paints the entire scene with a broad brush that they are all to blame. The BLM folks should have simply said, "Okay, we'll go home now, because the people that we're protesting against are telling us to. Come on folks, we'll lay down (one more time) and let the anarchists and white supremacists win again."
Duh, "What's the solution?" 'I have the authority to use force whenever people don't comply with my commands.' IMO, this is an unrealistic expectation, spoken by a white authoritarian law enforcement officer.
Well, DUH. Here's a possible solution that just popped into my little mind, after a few seconds of thought:
The police should have been monitoring the peaceful protest and should have detected white armed anarchists in paramilitary gear advancing into the area. Obviously, these people weren't coming to join the protest and the police should have detained them and stopped them from getting within contact of the BLM protesters.
Proactive policing focused upon the actual criminals could have diffused the whole situation and avoided the looting, vandalism, burning, and 2 deaths. Why aren't the police positioned around the perimeter of the BLM protest, protecting their peaceful protest from outside agitators?

Bush was too busy reading nursery rhymes at a kindergarten. When informed, he froze, not knowing how to respond.
So, he invented WMDs, attacked Iraq, started 20 years' worth of Middle East wars, failed to get Bin Laden, and couldn't handle the Wall Street collapse, families losing their homes to pay medical bills, nor save the auto industry, which Romney said, "Let it fail."
Obama/Biden picked up the pieces, killed bin Laden, saved America's auto industry, then gave US ACA.
Moscow Mitch & the GQP have made every effort to sabotage our healthcare. tRump added 25% to our national debt, reneged on JPCOA (Iran has resumed weapons grade enrichment of Uranium), and single-handedly gave Afghanistan back to the Taliban.
"Republicans don't know how to drive. Every time they get the helm, they head US straight intothe gtter." President Barack Obama.

@jamesj3352 BS!
tRump's corrupt inept administration left office with our nation shutdown, 1000s of his anti-vaxxers dying every day, empty grocery shelves, toilet paper hoarding, and our nation on its knees.
This administration stopped the COVID pandemic with nationwide distribution of free vaccines, until herd immunity was achieved. Now, our lives have been restored, thanks to President Biden's immediate actions, stimulus checks, eviction moratoriums, and PPEs for hospital staff, schools, and small businesses.
WE'RE NOT GOING BACK!
TRUMP'S GOING TO PRISON!

Town halls, eh?
80 million votes / 500 per event? Tulsi Gabbard tried that with home events and failed miserably.
What is the security risk to President Biden during hundreds of local yokel town halls and large stadium rallies, surrounded by hate filled, gun toting MAGA tRumptards, Adam? How any security agents are required to book rooms in advance to completely clear every gig, prior to Biden stepping on stage?
The thing that pisses me off the most is know-it-all left wing pundits advising the seasoned President Biden what he SHOULD be doing.
That is only telling viewers that he is an idiot, who doesn't know what he is doing, even after 4 decades' worth of on the job training.
We elect Presidents because we trust them to LEAD US for 4 years. But, nowadays, everyone is a more informed expert in all global matters, playing wannabe POTUS as soon as the inauguration ceremony is over. /smh

@captgraybush2890 Sorry, but I must respectfully disagree.
President Biden and the slim margins of Congressional Dems inherited a nation that was on it' knees, because of tRump's gaslighting, setting up the Afghan withdrawal, and multiple criminal conspiracies to overthrow our nation's elections, both in 2020 and 2022.
They impeached tRump twice, but his 'loyalist' Republicants stood in front of the world, deflecting, denying, and defending their 'don'.
The Jan 6th Committee presented an excellent case against tRump, with damning testimonies from his own inner circle, which proved criminality beyond all reasonable doubt.
Biden, Pelosi, and the Congressional Dems have skillfully out maneuvered their Republicant obstructionist party every step of the way in order to pass the most aggressive, progressive, and righteous BBB agenda in recent history, with one arm of Congress tied behind their backs. That is 10years' worth of legislation and funding within 1/2 a term, because Biden knew that ge was destined to become a lame duck POTUS, based upon decades of historical precedent.
Neither Dems nor their Jan 6th House Committee have the authority to hold tRump's mafia accountable to justice. That is the DoJ's job, which is entirely independent of Congress. So, the Congressional Republicants have no authority to stop that ball from investigating nor indicting tRump and his conspirators, especially this far out from 2024. That's exactly why Garland, the coward, immediately passed his hot potato to Jack Smith.
Yes, Gym Jordan et al, will stage their shit-show investigations against Hunter. Biden will pardon him and proclaim Executive Immunity for himself. That will be the end of that, which will only galvanize voters against Republcans.
"Republicans don't know how to drive. Everytime they take the helm, they head straight into the ditch."
Meanwhile, as we're already witnessing, Biden is leading our nation out of the darkness of tRumpism, returning it to normality. Over the next 2 years, hundreds of thousands of good paying jobs will be created, the repairs of our crumbling infrastructure will be well underway, women's rights, LGTBQ rights, racial equality, and our military strengthened.
All of these benefits to our society will be felt while the GQP/GOP implodes from it's own chaos.
It will take a decade for them to recover from drinking their own Koolaide.
With regards to the rise of the Independent party, that could only happen with ranked chioce voting in all states. Yang's moderate 'Forward Party' has a better chance, because that's where the majority of voters are. Actually, the Dems are also moderate, compared to MAGA. But they have been called "Radical left wing extremists", without rebuttals, for the past 6 years that people have started believing it.
I have a lot of faith in President Biden's leadership and foresee a much brighter future because of it.
Don't be so cynical! We're 'Mericans, damn it, better than this BS, and don't you forget it!

@captgraybush2890 Let's get one thing straight from the get-go, Capt. It's not MY Dem party, I don't speak on behalf of Dems, nor do I agree with their snowflake behavior and unrealistic ideologies. I'm Mr Mainstream America, much more like you than yourself.
Secondly, as my handle implies, I'm already far away from society IF the shtf.
I'm not trying to push my own agenda, nor a contrarian POV, like you seem to be.
I'm only discussing the cards that are already on the table.
In case you didn't notice, I never even suggested that Biden should run again in 2024. He might not even live that long.
I would rather see new blooded enthusiasm , like Beto O'Rourke/Pete Buttigieg (if our nation could handle a gay VP).
I'm pretty sure that Dems would need a 2/3 majority to start expelling fellow Congressional members. They have played the hand that been dealt as well as possible, providing undeniable evidence, which the DoJ can't possibly ignore.
It's AG Garland's DoJ that has been feckless, not the Dems, who have handed him the evidence on a silver platter. He should have taken down tRump's mob long before the midterms, instead of allowing the Q-Nuts enough leeway to take control of the House.
I place ALL of the blame for what's happing upon Garland's willful ignorance of the urgency to stop tRump's train and his incompetent Big Lie 'loyalist' candidates, who have absolutely 0 governing experience.
I'm very appreciative of Biden, Pelosi, Schiff, Schumer, and the Jan 6th Committee for the excellent work they've done to save our nation from tRumpism.
We're back to normality and back to leading the world's free nations, with great diplomacy, instead of warmongering. President Biden has only been able to achieve that through human decency and respect.
What has the Independent party achieved on our behalves, except to lose elections by dividing the majority for Republicants to win?
Again, I say, states need to use ranked choice elections to avoid that inevitability.

Democracy = one person, one whole vote
Republic = our electors will count the votes, then grant blacks 3/5 a vote, exclude women, and then Gerrymander districts in order to cheat.
IMO, Dems need to concede that the USA has NEVER been a democracy, just to stop the knee-jerk reaction among Republicans, who don't understand the difference between Democrats and democracy. They are correct that we don't have a democracy and they're even stealing our republic, now worth less than bananas.
#1: VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO, just to save what still remains. Debate the details after this chaos is behind US, or there will be no debating under tRump.. Given a filibuster proof Congressional majority and Biden as POTUS, they will have the power to fix our political woes.
#3: Nationwide ranked choice voting to end 3rd party election spoilers.
#4: Rebalance SCOTUS to make it NON-partisan, NON-politically motivated.
#5: TERM LIMITS and no under the table bribery for ALL Justices!!
#6: Repeal Dobbs & codify Roe.
#7: Repeal Citizens United to get corporate dark $ out of our elections. Equal campaign financing (to see which candidates can handle $ best).
#8: Abolish the Electoral College over cheating and Jan 6. If they can't play fairly, then take away their balls.
#9: Abolish district Gerrymandering. Equally divided populations, with equal voting power, and equal representation, regardless of land size.
#9: Mandatory civics testing and diploma screening for all political candidates!
THIS IS HOW TO MAGA, NOT BY BACK HANDED CHEATING!

@firestream93 It should have happened immediately after 1/6/21, but AG Garland is a coward and did nothing until after tRump's 'loyalist' Q-nuts infiltrated the people's House to sabotage the Biden administration.
I'm a patriotic Hermit, who is very concerned about saving our democratic republic and my nation's future.
So, while retired, I obsessively monitor the world and our government every day from the end of a secure wifi connection.
I don't cry. I'm a fierce keyboard warrior, defending our nation against malicious disinformation being propagated by our enemies' foreign trolls and tRumptarded traitors, America's enemies within.
There must be truth to balance their lies to keep our country o track. It's a simple matter of Yin vs Yang, always feeding upon the other's power. I will never stop, until the tRumptarded traitors stop attacking our POTUS, which won't stop until their 'Chosen one' is in prison.
It's a nasty job, but I'm fluent in deplorable tRump speak and never mince my words, like mealy-mouthed Dems who aren't getting the job done.
That's why tRump is still neck and neck with Biden in the polls, despite Biden's excellent leadership through the COVID pandemic and his respected diplomatic leadership throughout the world.
Your complacency does nothing more than enable the downfall of our great democracy.

70% don't want Biden to run for a second term, simply because of his age, not his leadership nor policies.
Traitor tRump's polling is even worse, he's headed for prison, and the authoritarian Q-nut run GQP is dead and wrong for US.
Where is Biden's viable Dem successor, who will run with his baton to finish the relay race in 2024?
President Biden has been a great POTUS who has guided US through very perilous times of COVID pandemic shutdowns, mass unemployment, supply chain disruptions, inflation, and Putin's war.
Thank you Mr President! Mission accomplished!
But, only fools would ride a faithful old workhorse all the way into his grave.
We the People need more choices for 2024!
Buttigieg/Blinken/Raskin/Psaki/AOC/Kerry/?
"HELLO-ELLO-ello...
IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE?"
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone to run?
Come-on, get out.
I know you're feeling down,
Who can ease this change?
Put US on our feet again?
DON'T RELAX-relax;
We need some information, first.
Just the basic facts,
Can you tell US which is worse?
There is no name, we are receiving,
No distant ships upon the horizon.
We ALL want a BIG BLUE WAVE,
Trump's lips move, but we can't believe what they say,
You can't explain, we do not understand,
This is not how we win,
WHYYY~Y HAVE WE BECOME SO DAMNED NUMB?!

Dezz Bryant You're an idiot who doesn't even understand the meaning of 'postponed'.
Yes, on April 14th President Biden satated publicly that he would not make a hasty withdrawal of troops , just to meet tRump's May 1st deadline. So, he postponed that date to Aug 31st, just in order to save our Afghan contractor's lives.
OMG, the Afghan government folded, allowing the Taliban to overrun the country without a shot. That's how tRump set it up by freeing the Taliban's leader from prison, granting him the power to rule again.
OMG, panicked civilians rushed the airport. So, the Taliban provided perimeter security to provide a buffer zone.
OMG, one suicide bomber managed slip past the Taliban's line of defense.
Otherwise, the entire evacuations have been efficient and very successful.

Having a gun eliminates the need for a brain, civil debate/discussion, nor intelligent thought at all. Any fool can and will grab a gun at the first conceived threat, then charge straight into a dangerous/volatile situation, get into someone's face, and stand one's own ground. If that someone touches the gun head, that's all the legal justification that's required to use that gun to apply lethal force, "in self defense out of fear for one's life."
Only moronic pussies need guns to defend themselves against other moronic pussies with guns. I don't hang out with moronic pussies and don't need to even own a gun. My car is always unlocked, don't even know where the door keys to my home are. I'm single, 68, retired, and my nearest neighbor is 200 yards away, but we rarely even see each other.
NO FEAR! TOTAL FREEDOM!! 😎

@jreimer9487 Agreed. TBH,IMHO, human beings are predators, by nature. I grew up on a farm with a .22 single shot rifle and didn't even think about shooting anything that moved, until I was 15 years old and drew a bead on a stray dog (runs in packs, killing neighborhood sheep, etc.) that was only 20 ft away, looking straight at me, wagging his tail. Couldn't 'chicken out' in front of my cousin. Had to 'be a man'. smh
That was the last time I fired a gun. But, nowadays who cares about 30,000 annual gun deaths in the US? Yet, some feign outrage over the accidental deaths of 10 Afghanis killed by a US drone.
If it weren't for the deterrent of life in prison, it would be exactly like the wild wild west, but with machine pistols, instead of six shooters, snipers protecting 'turf', instead of showdowns over a saloon gal.

This entire mess is caused by MSM messaging, pushing false narratives that rile up their viewers to generate social gossip and public dissent. Anarchists don't deserve an equal voice to spew their BS to viewers, just to win over Faux audiences.
CNN is just as bad at complaining about our leaders for not being more progressive as Faux Spews is for attacking and demonizing Dems on behalf of a lawless dictator.
"OMG, Biden is too old to run in 2024." WTF? Our nation's democracy is in jeopardy NOW!!
Biden has succeeded in "saving the soul of our nation" by defeating tRump. But, tRump is STILL holding anti-government rallies to keep his base of anarchists, Q-nuts, and white supremacists energized and active.
The inaction by the DoJ signals compliance and no wrong-doing. That's effectively being complicit, NOT serving justice against blatant and obvious treason. tRump has been caught red-handed with stolen classified nuclear top secret documents. Yet, tRump is attacking the DoJ, FBI, SCOTUS, and our elected Congressional leaders who are doing the DoJ's job of holding tRump to justice.
MSM's propaganda and Garland's inept DoJ is enabling tRump's crazy-assed Q-nut traitors to infiltrate the people's Congress, overthrow the majority of seasoned legislators, and destroy our nation's democracy. /smh

ColoWyo Watchman Beyond your comprehension, isn't it? I grew up with your religion and rejected its hypocrisy when I became a teenager. The, I wasted most of my life searching for illusive divine truths. Without religious superstitions, one learns that truth and morality doesn't come from divinity, but from common sense and moral decency.
Do animals kill each other for gold and ego or simply for food and to protect their hunting territory? They rarely kill even in self-defense. Animals are far more honest and compassionate than humans. Even rattlesnakes give fair warnings, before striking only in self-defense.
How many millions of people have been ruthlessly murdered, bombed, and beheaded on behalf of your same god? According to your manmade holy book, he clearly commanded, "Thou shall not kill." But, they conveniently forgot to specify human beings, didn't they? Oh yeah, it's fine to eat animals with cloven feet, eh?
Without your religion, we are left with people figuring out moral behavior for themselves, instead of believing in fairytales. Civilized societies have written laws. We don't need to second guess what an imaginary entity wants. This is truth, moral justice, and freedom beyond the comprehension of your sheltered childlike mind.

@jameskenneweg7609 1: Fertilized eggs ARE fetuses.
2: Exactly.
3: Don't know what veal is? Didn't I clearly state that I don't suggest fetal cannibalism? Google it.
4: Close enough. But thank you for the correction, anyway. As I also previously stated, no one is "prohibiting the free exercise thereof" because no one is mandating abortions upon anyone.
Which part of simply mind one's own business and keep your nose out of women's vaginas do you not understand, MAN?
How would you feel if your girlfriend deliberately got pregnant, then legally forced you to feed, clothe, and shelter them for the following 18 years, plus her additional brats? BTW, in this scenario, you're a Catholic, so divorce is not an option, just the same as a mother doesn't have the option of abandoning her children.
How would you like your own life being ruined by a drunken lustful moment?

ColoWyo Watchman Yes, you are your lying father's son, as well, aren't you? Why do Christins always talk about the devil and tell everyone that they are going to hell, just because they have become adults and no longer believe in ghosts and Santa Claus?
Did Jesus REALLY say that or was it John? You have no idea, yet you regurgitate it as holy gospel. Obviously, those biblical stories have been passed down through countless generations by word of mouth, written by men and loosely translated from ancient scripts and hundreds of languages. Otherwise, why would the same god have his 3 different religions killing themselves for thousands of years?
Then, you seriously expect people to believe in you? Hell, you can't even speak your own words of wisdom. You need to be led throughout life, just like the rest of your flock.

ColoWyo Watchman Your ignorance of scientific, geological, and archeological proof doesn't disprove 8 billion years' worth of evolution.
Time is my undeniable immortal, omnipotent god, that existed before alpha and will continue to exist after long after omega.
The hands of time have controlled every second of every life that has ever lived, from determining its moment of birth, death and everything in between.
Time tells us when to sleep, wake, eat, defecate, listen, speak, laugh, cry, get dressed, go to school, turn in homework, prepare for exams, graduate, find work, go on vacations, have sex, procreate, retire and die.
Success is totally dependent upon being prepared and achieving goals on time. Ignoring the signs of time results in inevitable failure.
Time is undeniable, yet oblivious to humanity. Pray to it if you need and you will get exactly the same answers as from an imaginary Jehovah, Jah, or whatever label you stick on him/her/it.
You seek truth and universal law? Sure, sit right down and STFU.
The only universal law is the constant struggle for balance between the opposing forces of Yin and Yang. For everything that exists, there is an opposite. It exists in everything from the tiniest hydrogen atom to the solar systems of the universe. Time also controls the atomic wavelengths between positive and negative frequencies, as well as the balances between inertia of moving mass vs centrifugal forces and gravitational attraction.
You think you know my mind enough to control it, Jesus Freak?

Don't you remember the collapse of Wall Street in 2009 that threatened to bring down the entire economy? It wasn't a matter of choice, but survival. It was caused by predatory lending, subprime mortgage foreclosures, and hedge fund managers.
That's why Obama appointed Warren to oversee Wall Street's shenanigans. Trump rolled back those regulations and eliminated Warren's entire department. So, now we are just vulnerable as before. Those regulations and oversight need to be put back in place.
Then, there was the failing automotive industry, which employed millions of workers and contractors. They were bailed out with government loans, which have paid back, in full. Now, the industry is thriving. Their employees and contractors are fine. All's well as ends well, wouldn't you agree?

@georgemaximus694 Our national debt increased by 20%, over the past 4 years,thanks to Trump's mishandling of the economy. His tax cuts for the top 3% caused a $2T budget deficit in revenues. It was 'supposed to pay for itself', based upon an unrealistic GDP of 3.5%. Instead, it immediately nosedived to -2% over the following year. As Biden and the Fed Res predict, the ARP will stimulate the GDP by a 6% recovery, settling back to its 2.25% norm by next year.
However, I fully agree with your concerns regarding our national debt. But. I must point out that Clinton handed Bush a balanced budget. Bush wasted $5T on the ME wars and allowed the great recession in 2008. Obama and Biden put our economy back on track to recovery. Trump's incompetence killed ~200,000 Americans, destroyed our economy, dismantled our immigration depts, created racial and political divisions, and attempted a coup d'etat, just because of his Big Lie about election fraud. Putin couldn't have had a better operative to destroy our nation.
So, give Joe a chance. So far, he's doing a fantastic job kick starting our economy. Now is not the time to with hold investments into our economy. Otherwise, we will only prolong and deepen the harm that has been inflicted upon us. People need to get back on their feet, before battling the national debt. "It takes money to make money."

@georgemaximus694 That's a lot to unpack, but I fully agree with most of your points. Yes, the economical divide is ridiculous, considering the excessive wealth of our nation.
As Bernie says, just a few pennies more taxes upon the top 5% could alleviate a 'uge amount of hunger and suffering by low income families. The 5% wouldn't even notice the difference. It's immoral.
The happiest countries on the planet are the social democracies of Sweden, Norway, & Denmark. Yes, they pay slightly higher taxes, but everyone gets higher education, healthcare, and reasonably priced housing and food. IOW, no one is struggling to get by and crimes are practically nonexistent. Yet Republicans criticize them as being 'socialists'.
Computers guide Wall Street traders and hedge fund managers to accumulate $billions. What benefit are they to society? Half of them can't even tie their own shoes, much less produce something.
Computerized robots and AI are replacing hundreds of thousands of workers. Online shopping is replacing local mom and pop businesses. Whiz kid programmers can spend a month pumping out apps that make $millions on the Internet. Every click we make is tracked in order to target us for unwanted marketing ads.
Someone gets a cut on every YT video we watch.
Our entire economic foundation has dramatically shifted over the past 10 years.
Soon, most manufacturing will be done at home by 3D printers. Hell, they're even 3D printing beef free steaks and entire houses, ffs!
The average hard working Joe doesn't have a chance to compete anymore. Too many people are being left behind. Something's gotta give.

@kurtisboyd No, I'm not joking and every word that I've stated is true. You're still living in the pre-tRump past, before he hijacked the GOP and whipped them into the current anti-government GQP. Now, partisanship is either patriotism or authoritarian anarchy.
"Dems and GOP have an equal amount of blood on their hands due to their lax oversight and close ties to Wall St."
Bush was asleep at the helm in 2007. Obama had to save the banking industry from right wing deregulations, their decades long mantra.
He put Warren in charge of a Wall Street oversight commission and handed tRump a healthy economy. Then tRump dismantled it, just like he did with ICE.
"The Fed bailed out foreign banks with TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS in 2019… The Fed. Not Trump."
The year was 2020, during tRump's term. Congress had passed a COVID relief bill, intended for laid off workers, for families to avoid evictions, and small business subsidies during their shutdowns.
When the don signed the bill, the godfather also overstepped his authority by adding side notations and caveats.
Dems knew that tRump couldn't be trusted, so they had appointed an Inspector General to oversee the distributions of those funds. tRump immediately fired that oversight officer and put Mnu(no)chin in charge of distributing the funds. Mnuchin handed out $Billions to his corporate cronies, like it was Halloween candy.
Then the Dems exposed tRump's misappropriations of funds and they were asked to return the $that they didn't need, just to keep the administration out of trouble.
Please stop with the Russian propaganda, claiming that both sides of our government are equally corrupt. That's like stating that mice and elephants are equal.
tRump's GQP conspirators only want to tear down and undermine our democracy for their 'chosen' furor and Putin's obvious puppet. both are blatant mafia.
The Dems are the only ones who have the decency to stand against tRumpism and his corrupt right wing extremists state legislatures, who are deliberately breaking a fair, election system that has been proven to be free from fraud.
The GQP even attempted to replace electors with phonies, just to cheat for their godfather tRump.
I suggest that you start paying closer attention to our government and stay away from Tuckins, Hannity, and Faux Spews.
If you want to know the truth, then get from the same source as MSM, BEFORE they put their spin on it to appease their audiences. That source is Jen Psaki's official White House Press Briefings, a couple of days every week. Forget the pundits' rhetoric and soothsaying of our future. Most of them don't have a clue.

@adoe2305 You've really got a chronic case of TDS, don't you. /smh
Those are tRump's lies. He gave away $Billions of taxpayer's COVID relief $ to his 2% cronies, instead of the small businesses it was allocated for by Congress. Now, the frauds are being prosecuted.
I suggest that you listen to President Biden's speech today, explaining the state of our economy, reducing the national debt by ~$300 Billion last year and projections to reduce it by another $1.2 Trillion this year. Our economy is strong and growing, despite corporate price gouging.
FYI, the Dems didn't shutdown tRump's BS 'booming' economy. His anti-vaxxers, anti-maskers, and congregations of his evangelical cult prolonged the CDC shutdowns. FYI, the CDC isn't a political party, they are the scientific- based Center for Disease Control, get it?
tRump is a traitor, who will soon face justice for his corruption. Anyone who still supports him is also a traitor, whether you realize it or not.

The 'godfather' summoned all of the Congressional Republicans into the Oval Office as soon as he arrived. Trump understands that 'every an has his price' and has the resources to pay it. Obviously, he gave them an offer they couldn't refuse. His 'embrace' sealed their oath of allegiance to him, above party and nation. That's why he has absolute control over the Senate and House Republicans. Woe to anyone who breaks their vow by not holding the Trump Party line. Yes, I said Trump Party because he owns the Republicans.
This is the only possible explanation for their shameless behavior throughout the impeachment proceedings. This is also the only explanation of McConnell's public statement that he would follow the White House counsel's guidance and that there is 0 chance of impeachment passing the Senate. This is illegal and unconstitutional.
After the backlash of a failed impeachment, Trump will win the election, Dems will lose the House and a vindicated Trump will be unstoppable. Within only 4 years, Trump and his motley mob of Cabinet henchmen will have successfully conducted a coup against our democracy, without firing a shot. He has already floated ending term limits and is poised to become America's first dictator. Of course, his ego would prefer the title of 'King of the World.' Then, his heirs in waiting could inherit his 'kingdom'. Bada-bing. Just like that.
You think I'm crazy? Who's gonna stop him? His only check on power is the Dem controlled House and they have already failed, simply because everyone dismissed it as only a hyper-partisanship. Guess again. Tick-tock.......(crickets chirping)

SUCH GALL!!
While under impeachment, tRump knew that it would cost him the 2020 election. So, he single handedly invited our Taliban, Al Qaeda, and ISIS terrorists to Camp David and negotiated a treasonous deal, which betrayed the 20 years worth of our troops' blood sacrifices and $Trillions wasted in W's Afghanistan failure.
tRump's deal was that he would free 5,000 of their terrorists from a Pakistani prison, plus they could have Afghanistan back, NEXT YEAR UNDER BIDEN'S TERM, without needing to fire a shot... under the one condition that they stop attacking US troops during that period.
Secondly, the troop withdrawal out of Bagram was so flawless that local Afghans didn't even realize until the following morning that the base was abandoned.
What happened at Karzai Airport was a humanitarian rescue mission that saved 125,000 refugee lives, with known risks and precautions.
This is nothing more than an attempt to rewrite history to cover up tRump's treason.

Why are you sticking your nose into the centuries old Congolese marijuana business, as if it is your problem,.
The government, military, and tribal leaders are all aware of what's going on and they don't care. It is the only cash crop for women to survive on, without prostituting themselves, w/o healthcare.
Clearly, you are an unwelcomed foreigner, imposing your self-righteous judgements and inferences upon a different culture.
This is NOT responsible journalism. It is an anti-marijuana hit piece, based upon anecdotal conversations, no deeper than your interviews.
BTW, there is archeological evidence of human beings using marijuana medicinally for over 5,000 years, NOT mere hundreds. Every pot head knows that. /smh

@Roland D IMO, the GQP has overplayed its hand and is only left with lies (to energize their base), obstruction (to deny Dems' progress), and bluff (big talk w/o action). Their only 'policy' is pandering to wealthy donors with failed 'trickle down', aka tinkle on Reagonomics.
Their loyalty to the NRA has resulted in excessive gun ownership, anarchist militias, and over 30,000 needless gun deaths every year. Whenever someone disagrees, just grab your gun and bully them into submission, just like the heroes of old wild wild westerns, broadcast to every home, every afternoon. Never mind the violent graphic computer games that have become our children's baby sitters, with dopamine rush rewards for the highest kill scores. (I digress)
Republicants waste more on ME wars than their tax revenues generate, which has blown our annual budget and the national debt has blown through the non-existent ceiling.
They have absolutely no intention of addressing climate change, nor supporting sustainable energy, a smart grid, nor e-vehicles.
They are blatant racists against Asians, Blacks, Latinos, and Muslims. It betrays Constitutional truths that are 'self evident'. So their white evangelical base is dwindling into radicalized right wing white supremacists.
Yes, our infantile capitalism has only produced a huge economic gap between the astronautical (literally), computer aided wealthy and disenfranchised, under educated unemployed.
IMO, President Biden has the most comprehensive policies in recent history to put our nation back on the right track. But, they require bipartisanship. He keeps trying to negotiate across the aisle, only to be rejected. Yes, the filibuster as been abused and must be eliminated.
The majority of sensible US voters need show up at the polling stations and get the GQP out of governance. "Republicans can't drive. Every time they get behind the wheel, they head straight for the ditch." -Barack Obama

Raskin/AOC could carry Biden's BBB agenda baton to the finish line, without a stumble, IMO.
One is a Constitutional scholar, oratorical master, and House Jan 6 impeachment prosecutor. The other, a young, energetic, eloquent, black, female, persuasive climate advocate. No betrayal, nor disrespect towards President Biden. Only continuing his legacy.

"The Donald", the don, the godfather, the mafioso head of a family's mob, with personal oaths of loyalty, sealed with the infamous 'embrace' of every Congressional Republican, bar Romney. They are part of the don's mob, with no way out, short of suicide for their political careers and being alienated from power, the grift of dark money, and corporate lobbyist-funded perks.
The godfather's vengeance is ruthless. Republicans are too frozen with that fear, they can't govern without his guidance and kowtow to appease his ego by rewriting history to create his legacy of grandeur. That's the only agenda Caving McCarthy's House are pursuing, apart from pandering to the don's brainwashed, hypocritical Evangelical supporters.
The GQP is imploding, being led by the dons hand-picked Q-nut House saboteurs, who have no governing experience, desperately flailing about, with embarrassing attempts to push social media conspiracies, as well as religious ideologies, through the legislative branch but will never be signed into law.
By 2024, We the People will say, "Enough is enough with this BS."
MAGA has hijacked and already killed the GOP. They are just too stupid to realize the consequences of their own actions... yet.

Biden's debate coach is incompetent, allowing Biden to step on stage, before hacking up that throat full of phlegm.
Biden sounded weak, compared to trump's full strong voice.
Biden's head down posture was submissive, compared to tRump's standing proud and tall.
Afghanistan's withdrawal was negotiated between tRump and the Taliban.... ZZzz..
Clean water? Replacing lead pipes.
The world laughing at Biden? tRump's UN address.
Iran? tRump's reneging on JPCOA.
Missd counterpoints, time after time.
Full disclosure: I've been the Biden administration's biggest fan and never-tRumper.
Best regards to President Biden and thank you Sir for stepping up to save our nation, just when we needed you the most. Your excellent, mindfully modest leadership has truly made America greater than under tRump. Please enjoy the remaining years of life, knowing that you have succeeded in achieving your goals, against all odds.
The time is of the essence for President Biden to pass the baton to the next generation of Dem leaders, ASAP.
I support Constitutional lawyer, Jan 6 House Committee prosecutor, oratorical master, and bipartisan respected, very popular, and happy warrior for democracy, Rep Jamie Raskin.
RASKIN/AOC 2024!! 💙

NONE of that is true. EVERY Republicant STILL pushes failed Reaganomics for decades, which has only underfunded our government in exchange for political donations from billionaire dark money super PACs, since Citizens United.
Clinton handed Bush a balanced budget. So, Bush blew a hole in it with more tax breaks to the filthy rich and Middle East wars, based upon lies of WMDs. He let Bin Laden slip through his fingers, then scapegoated the Taliban to start another 20 year war, which devolved into BS nation building.
Obama/Biden had to bail out unregulated hedge funds. So, an oversight commission was created with Liz Warren as its head. Then, tRump dismantled it, so now were seeing under regulated banks failing.
Families were losing their homes, over healthcare costs, when Obama/Biden took office. So, they provided ACA, which Republicans have been trring to repeal ever since. Romney said, "Let he auto industry fail." But Obama/Biden bailed them out and now they're strong, after paying off their government loans.
tRump gave his billionaire cronies a $2 Tillion tax break, which they didn't need and only invested it back into their own stocks. Nothing trickled down to the poor folks.
Now, BECAUSE OF DECADES WORTH OF FAILED REPUBLICAN POLICIES we have ended up with $32 Trillion national debt.
President Biden has reduced federal spending by $1.2 Trillion within only 1/2 a term, during pandemic shutdowns and the war in Ukraine.
WE ARE NOT DOOMED UNDER HIS LEDERSHIP.
THE WORLD IS DOOMED IF REPUBLICANS ARE IN POWER.

@ericanderson5195 FYI, it was our constitution that removed ALL religious teachings from our state funded schools, a long time ago. Our nation's laws and education are not founded upon your superstitious nonsense.
Stop dividing our nation by pitting Republicans against Democrats. We are ALL Americans.
Satan only lives within your own misguided imagination. Without people like you, satan could not exist. So, you tell me who's on his side.
Meanwhile, study our nation's constitution and start acting like a real patriotic American, defending personal freedoms, instead of imposing your nonsense upon others. YOU ARE NOT GOD, DO NOT KNOW HIM, AND ARE NOT HIS SPOKESPERSON. So, STFU!

I remember tRump's BS trade tariffs against China that caused US farmers to lose their primary soybean customer, who purchased from Brazil, instead. Then, our farmers had to survive off of taxpayer's welfare.
I remember tRump reneging on JCPOA, which allowed Iran to resume their nuclear weapons program.
I remember mafioso don having a love affair with Kim, N Korea's dictator.
I remember the don abandoning PCA, setting the world back on climate change mitigation by decades.
I remember the UN counsel laughing in the orange braggart's face as soon as he opened his mouth at their podium.
I remember the wannabe dictator refusing to admit that he is a loser, then proceeded to attempt 3 coups, fake electors to stop the peaceful transfer of Executive power to the undeniable will of We the People.
I remember mafioso don, the 2-bit con, inciting his cult of lawless anarchists to storm our Capitol, using Ole Glory as a weapon, while chanting, "HANG MIKE PENCE!!"
I remember the POS betraying 20 years' worth of our troops blood sacrifices to give Afghanistan back to the Taliban, just for bragging rights, while being impeached.
I remember the gaslighting about COVID that murdered 1/2 million of his own anti-vaxxer cult members.

Maybe you need to start paying attention to what Joe and Kamala have been accomplishing to put our nation back on its feet, provide the strongest post-pandemic economy in the world, stop supply chain shortages, bring inflation back down, unite our global allies, strengthen NATO, diffuse hostilities with China, and restore US global integrity, bring manufacturing back home, employ 14 million workers, approve 35,000 projects throughout our nation to repair crumbling infrastructure, inject union wages into those communities
tRump's gaslighting killed 1/2 million anti-vaxxers.
He is being charged and tried for 91 counts of felonies, including espionage over stealing thousands of top secret nuclear defense documents.
Let's talk about tRump's 'loyalists' in the House, sabotaging Congress and trying to crash our economy.
Maybe, you need to pull your head out of tRump's echo chamber and stop watching Faux Spews BS. @fletcherreed3259

Trump saw the problems, but always reached for his power tools of the military, instead of applying international diplomacy. He only made bad matters even worse. N Korea, Iran, and his Afghan withdrawal schedule are perfect examples.
We didn't have a POTUS in tRump, only an irresponsible, rebel rousing, shit-stirring, Putin pleasing wannabe dictator.

@sademccall6838
Please save your breath. I grew up hearing that same sort of man's twisted preaching and brainwashing.
Every person is an individual who was born without sin. Good is only the opposition of bad, yin and yang, on whatever level you like. Good and bad are mere judgments, based upon one's personal opinion, which is based upon social acceptance within a community.
We don't share the same communities, so our definitions of good and bad probably differ. A gun could be good or bad, depending upon the situation and intentions of its holder. I digress.
No one deserves death (except mass murderers, as a deterrent). Who told you that and why would you even think that way? Death s only the end of life's cycle, nothing more nothing less. Finito. Nada mass.
Santa Claus doesn't exist, Child. There's no reward for being nice at the end of life's season. There's no eternal punishment for living a naughty life. It's all just a fairy tale to condition young minds and instill moral values. But, it's just make believe, with no physical scientific evidence.
sorry to be the one to burst your bubble, but your faith is jeopardizing over 8 billion years of the only known instance of natural evolution in the universe.
Believe whatever you want, but don't throw away life, just because of some insane hallucinogenic dream 2000 years ago. They're nothing special. Millions of people have experienced such nightmares that your faith has selected as gospel from your imaginary god.
Don't doom mankind over nothing but misguided faith.

This is a PERFECT example of what is so wrong about the Republican party, who refuse to take responsibility for their own anti-American behavior. They attempt to excuse themselves with deflections, whataboutisms, and claiming that both parties are guilty for the escalating violence.
They refuse to hold tRump accountable, nor to condemn his hateful anti-Dem rhetoric.
AG Garland's inaction only signals that tRump is innocent, despite being caught red-handed with stolen top secret classified government docs in his possession, lying about having them, then more being found. Some are missing from their envelopes, with their classifications clearly stamped.
Obviously, Jared didn't want those marked envelopes in his possession while carrying them through customs to deliver them to MBS, in exchange for the $2Billion contribution to his BS 'Investment Firm'.
EVERY Republican Congressman betrayed their oaths of office by pledging their loyalty to the don, godfather of a mafioso mob family, with his infamous 'embrace' during his 1st week in office, 2017.

@raystrong6712 I sincerely hope that your predictions come to pass, Sir. With that level of forgiveness, it would serve as proof that blacks are truly the superior race.
But, I hope the day comes when a person's heart becomes a much more significant indicator of a person's worthiness of respect, rather than skin tone. Perhaps, someday we will all become persons of equal color, which would moot the entire subject of racism. Wouldn't that be a beautiful sight to behold?
The more white supremacists fight and ferment their hatred, the more repulsive they become to more educated moderates, regardless of racial heritage. It's a yin/yang kind of thing, each force countering the other with ebbs and flows, but never to the extremes.
Even animals understand the difference between fairness and abuse. Mankind is no different from any other lifeforms, having the same needs and desires for love and survival. But, that's a different subject, my Friend.

@UtubeH8tr Your ignorance is appalling.
There hasn't been 16 years of Congressional Dem majority. But, when there was, they saved our nation from the 2008 Great Recession, the auto industry from collapse, gave US ACA healthcare, restored our economy, and restored our lives after tRump's gaslighting that resulted in 400,000 needless anti-vaxxer COVID deaths, nationwide shutdowns, mass unemployment, kids out of school, empty grocery shelves, toilet paper hoarding, supply chain disruptions, ...
tRump promised infrastructure repairs and never delivered. Biden/Harris have delivered 50,000 ongoing paid projects, with millions of union paid jobs pumping life into local communities throughout our nation.
$Billions of foreign capital is pouring into America, bringing manufacturing back.

Civil War II? Who is going to shoot whom? Should I, a peace-loving old hippie, go out and purchase an AK-47, with 10,000 rounds and several large magazines, to defend myself from my Trumptarded gunhead neighbors? Should I strike first, because I'm already outnumbered?Who are the evil traitors and who are the true patriots fighting for our democratic republican freedoms?
Trump is an out of control mob boss, who has thumbed his nose at our Constitution and Congressional oversight. He literally believes that he is above the law and has demonstrated an absolute stranglehold over the Republican party.
Trump is an irresponsible bully, who gives everyone gangsta nicknames and brutally punishes anyone who opposes him. He rules by intimidation and everyone around him hates him. All along, to this very minute, Trump's self-appointed Cabinet (mob) of henchmen are plotting a coup upon our nation.
Trump has already suggested the elimination of term limits (blatantly illustrated in his recent tweet, with him campaigning into 2048) and has his heirs poised to inherit his crown and kingdom, aka USA. If re-elected, Trump will become our 1st dictator or, as he fantasizes, the biggliest King of the World in history.
Every day, the MSM provide Trump with 24/7 free publicity by broadcasting his propaganda. Therefore only a media mogul, like Mike Bloomberg, is capable of defeating Trump with millions of dollars’ worth of counter messaging ads.
IMO, Mike Bloomberg is our only hope of saving our democratic republic against Trump's tyranny. Mike Bloomberg is literally spending a fortune out of his own pocket to save our nation from a lying, cheating, corrupt traitor. This also means that Mike won't be pulled off his platform by some special interest or PAC donations. His own words are his only bond.
BTW, Bloomberg's anti-Trump ads will run up until the November election, even if he is not the Dems' nominee. IOW, those ads benefit all Dem candidates. How generous is that? They should be thanking Mike, instead of demonizing him with accusations of him trying to buy the election. He's only buying ads, just as others are. He is running upon his own integrity. May the best candidate win the nomination and election.
Furthermore, Bloomberg only entered the race because none of the field has a chance in hell of defeating Trump (including Sanders). Even after giving his rivals a 3 month head start and 4 state handicap, Bloomberg's poll numbers are skyrocketing.
We are supposed to be One Nation, Indivisible, of the People, by the People, and for the People. Please support our nation's only hope for survival.🙏

Democrats are such sycophants, eating their own kind. DNC corruption continues to help Republicans to get elected, due to shear voter disillusionment with the process. "What's the point of voting, when our votes don't count?" They simply never learn from their own mistakes.

Actually, Jamie Raskin said, "I think that he could spend the rest of his days, locked behind bars... ...but the point is, that fundamentally won't address the forces of racism and anti-Semitism, that Donald tRump has unleashed upon the country..."
That's not predicting that tRump will spend the rest of his life in prison, but that doing so wouldn't stop his mob, which is a different matter. Accurate quotes are important, especially from authorities such as Raskin.
Yes, there will be repercussions if/when tRump is ever arrested.
"If the DoJ arrests me, there will be an uprising like our nation has never seen. I'll grant Presidential pardons for everyone who defends me, IF I'm re-elected as President, okay?"
tRump always exposes his hand and sows his seeds of civil unrest well in advance.
But this time, the government will be prepared to defend itself and will crush tRump's mob of lawless anarchists. They will crawl back under their rocks and go into hiding.
The End of tRump's cult, IMO.

What a disgusting bunch of treasonous tRumptarded trolls you all are, swarming like hornets under every YT video about our elected POTUS to inflict your poisonous barbs into the old man who kicked your traitor tRump's sorry ass out our Oval office to defend US from a morally corrupt, wannabe fascist dictator, who has already hijacked the cowardly GQP, infiltrated our Congress with his know-nothing, do-nothing seditious conspirators to sabotage our government, economy, and national security.
Why are MAGA Congressional idiots serving a notorious lying, cheating, political loser, instead of their constituents and our nation? Simply to get their ruthless mafioso don, the 2-bit con, reelected in order to obtain his presidential pardons to keep their own treasonous asses out of prison.
The entire GQP is corrupt and stinks to high heaven, just like their cult leader, who is nothing more than Putin's puppet, dangling on the 91 strings of justice, including espionage.
What kind of US citizens do you call yourselves, if not tRumptarded traitors, who are only here to disgrace our nation in front of the world at the pleasure of dictators' terrorist regimes, like Putin's, Kim, Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, and our other enemies throughout the world?
MAGA MY F'ING ASS. /SMH

@brentharrington9235 "with genius level thought processing like that, it's no wonder you believe everything you are told too. "
WTF are you talking about? NO ONE tells The Hermit what to believe.
"The guy was a hemp jewelry making, nudist drug addict, who lived in a hippie commune that has gay pride and BLM flags in front of it..."
BFD. IF TRUE, that only indicates that the guy was a social misfit and a loser. FYI, jewelry making isn't illegal, nor is nudity among adults. I love hippies and vape 90% THC all day long, 7/wk & 365/year. LEGALLY.
I'm 100% heterosexual, but support LGBTQ rights and freedom. I'm a white, 70 year old fart, who also supports the PEACEFUL BLM protests against police murders, which were undermined by white supremacist vandalism. Don't preach to me about being gullible.
"The dudes baby mama already gave an interview and said ''he shares the same political ideology as me and I'm very progressive."
If that doesn't scream MAGA idk what does."
Now, you're only arguing against your previous premise and against a fellow progressive. WTF?
"ALL of this data is public. All you need to do is take 2 seconds to find it."
IOW, "If it's on the internet, then it has to be true", right? WRONG!
Stop allowing yourself toobeplayed for a confused tool, FOOL!

fallingFrom 10kfeet Actually, she worked her way through college as a bartender. Before campaigning to become a Representative. AOC is a political powerhouse and campaigned with Bernie during his primary run. She is the driving force behind the 'Green New Deal', before President Biden picked up the cause. Much of his agenda is upon her wings.
Never heard anything about the casting call at TYT in 2017. Perhaps she was a guest on their webcast, but they're no one's star maker and she's not acting for anyone.
AOC is young, genuinely idealistic, and very opinionated (to her own detriment).
She is so far ahead of society, that she's a little scary for some. At times, I wish she would put a lid on it. But, most of what she says about protecting the environment is absolutely true.
AOC is a rising political star, who will only become more powerful with experience over time.
Oh yeah, she collected $2 million worth of donations to help Texans get through their freeze out and power outages. You remember, when ted Cruz left his own people to suffer while he flew to Can-Cun?
1
-
fallingFrom 10kfeet Yeah, I followed your search and watched all 21 minutes of the 2019 content, with only 638 views. smh
1: Cenk Uygur of TYT, decided to create his own brainchild caucus to recruit dynamic, small donor progressives away from the 'Hillary' loser Democratic party to start the 'Justice Democrat' Party (which no one but you has ever heard of since). So, he hired an ad company to promote the chosen 'recruits'. AOC was their shining star.
2: @ 12:20, the female member stated that AOC wrote her own narration for her very successful 2016 campaign ad that was so popular that she won the HoR seat.
3: @16:30, during AOC's diner meeting with the ad company, she informs them that she had been live streaming her life's story since 2016, prior to ever meeting any of TYT's people.
Later on, the female repeats all of AOC's goals, as if it was their Justice Democrats' own agenda.(rip-offs)
4: @ 18:58, Cenk introduces the first guy as being AOC's Chief of Staff. IOW, he works for AOC, not visa versa.
Conclusion:
TYTs and their ad people had nothing to do with AOC's fame and political success, because she had already won her HoR seat in 2016 all by herself. They were only hanging onto her coat tails, like groupies.
Cenk's illusion of grandeur, aka Justice Democrats was nothing more than his overly inflated pipe dream that went nowhere.
Now, TYT is nothing more than another YT political pundit show, which are a dime a dozen.
Meanwhile, AOC out grew them and moved on, leaving them eating her dust.
After her 1st term, AOC succeeded in being re-elected and has become one of the most influential Democrats in Congress.
I'm afraid that you were only taken in by the TYT's own arrogant account of their little tale wagging AOC's fierce Chihuahua.
Why are you going to such lengths, trying to diminish AOC's skyrocketing into prominence within the Democratic party? She is clearly a self made woman. The least you could do is give credit where credit is due.
Finally, a 'casting call' is when a production company summons selected actors into their studio to audition for a part in a movie. Hence, the proverbial 'casting couch' cliche'.
It is a completely inaccurate use of the term in this scenario.

Yes, few things in life are binary black and white. But, that's how the right wing extremists, bigoted evangelicals, and simple-minded, willfully ignorant folks think, because it's more important to stand one's ground than to give an inch nor more than a moment's thought about other people's lives.
Pro-life sounds great, until it's most extreme ideology enforced. Yeah, who isn't pro-life and anti-abortion,,, until they are the ones who are carrying an unwanted fetus from a rapist?
"SECURE THE BORDER!" they demand,,, while refusing to allow comprehensive immigration bills onto the floors of Congress. /smh
We the People MUST purge the anarchist Q-nuts and tRumptarded conspirators from our Congress.

@johnalexander4940 Because A G Garland is a coward.
He turned a blind eye at the 3 publicly broadcasted hearings by the House Jan 6 Committee, who did the DOJ's job of investigations, hundreds of interviews sworn eye-witness testimonies, and overwhelming, undeniable evidence of tRump's treasonous activities.
Garland's willful ignorance effectively enabled MAGA loyalists to infiltrate our House to sabotage Congress. Their efforts to impeach Biden, Majorkas, defaulting on paying their own bills, defunding federal agencies, withholding aide to Ukraine, and blocking the Border Security bill are ALL on Garland's cowering, ineptly incompetent head.

@janetdotson7829 Thank you for explaining and I get that. But, shouldn't that be their answer, instead of shying away from what everyone is waiting on bated breath to hear?
It's the avoidance that tRumptards pick up on to say, "You see? They're not going to prosecute tRump. If he was a criminal, then they would have arrested him by now."
Meanwhile, the midterms clock is winding down and tRump's loyalists are already lined up. Republican states have rigged their election laws to be able to discard ballots virtually on a whim.
Dems need to get their messaging happening and tRump needs to be indicted within the next few weeks or we'll find ourselves being subjected to Q-nut right wing ideological authoritarianism while inflicting unimaginable suffering upon future generations.
Not that I'm some kind of fear monger, or anything like that. I simply believe in scientific data from a bunch of highly educated folks, with letters behind their names & all. They're not concerned with politics, in the least. Simply dedicated their lives to studying the mundane for a better understanding of nature.
Anyway, I'm probably preaching to the choir, JS.

I am so sickened by anti-American, anti-Biden tRumptarded rhetoric, disgracing our nation on behalf of Putin.
You are only biting the same hand that is providing the majority of defensive weaponry Ukraine has received.
President Biden is rightly concerned about not escalating and getting the USA drawn into WW III, not only against Russia but also with Taiwan and the volatile Middle East conflicts. That must also be appreciated and respected.
Thanks to Biden, Ukraine will receive the F-16s and the training to use them effectively. Ukraine has already received HIMARS, Javelins, Patriots, and lots of effective weaponry from the US.
While MAGA wants to defund Ukraine for Putin, President Biden has united hundreds of nations against Putin 's invasion.
Instead of pulling out of NATO, Biden has strengthened it be adding 2 more nations.
Please show some respect for our elected President's mindful leadership through these volatile times, instead of broadcasting dissent against US on the WWW. He is responsible for protecting US.
MAGA only wants to cut off ALL aide to Ukraine.

@AndrewLander3 'What has always happened' doesn't make it right. You reference uncivilized times of tribalism as justification for mankind's worst behavior. Then, you say that the Native Americans were to blame for living in harmony with nature, freely migrating with the seasons, and sharing their resources with others. They didn't need guns nor money and they understood that, instead of owning the land, it gave them life. Instead of stealing its natural resources and polluting, Native Americans cultivated and nurtured it. They thrived for thousands of years, until European invaders arrived with guns. Today, those guns are still being used against each other, killing 40,000 every year. But, according to you, that's what makes us great.
Q: How can a fart own the ass-hole from which it came?
1
-
@AndrewLander3 You are so brainwashed that you value wealth and power over moral conscious. Like a bully, you use them to justify bad and illegal behavior, past and present.
There is no greater nobility than to live a lifestyle that promotes diversity of life and the balance of nature. It's not about the money, it's all about being mindful of the benefits and consequences of your existence. Upon that scale, worms and bacteria have bragging rights over humankind.
BTW, Indians are the inhabitants of an Asian country called India. We are discussing the original natives of this land, now labeled America. These Native American peoples are not foreigners nor outsiders. We are. So, let's show them some respect and own up to how Europeans slaughtered their society.
That's why I love Native American owned casinos. Old white people flow in, leave their money behind, then go home. In most cases, the money gets distributed throughout the tribe, providing education and infrastructure. Native American socialism funded by scalping capitalists, who don't know what to do with their nest eggs. Poetic justice, aka 'Get-back's a mother..." 😎

@thethoughtmaster If it's plans you want, then I suggest that you watch the Democratic debates. The dems have lots of plans.
Trump has no plans. He simply tweets from the hip and blames everything on the democrats. Isn't the POTUS supposed to be the leader of ALL Americans?
He has done nothing but spew lies, campaign, divide our country, give away tax breaks to billionaires (who invested into the stock market, instead of their workers, over-inflating the market), lock up innocent children, offend our allies, and buddy up with our enemies. In fact, he recently cut a deal for Saudi Arabia to manufacture guided missiles. WTF!? Why are we giving away our military secrets to Muslim extremists?
His tariffs will backfire on farmers and low income consumers.
As a climate denier, he is jeopardizing life on Earth.
He is nothing but an embarrassment to our nation, yet you actually believe in this POS.
LOCK HIM UP!!!

tRump has been a bully for all of his sorry excuse for a life. IMHO, he has successfully cowered Garland, who passed 'the don' to Jack for prosecution.
The 'don' models himself after the Godfather movies, with the 'crime family', intimidating attorneys, big henchmen to clear his path, and vengeance against anyone who gets in his way.
"Crooked Hillary, Crazy Bernie, Lying Ted, Li'l Marco, Pocahontas, ..." all demeaning gangsta nicknames of his foes to signal to the world who's the mob boss.

What are you talking about, Ben? tRump did NOT pick Melania up. He kept her from falling. Where is he humiliating her? Why are you ragging on about Melania, who obviously hates tRump, doesn't agree with his politics, and clearly won't be voting for him?
WHO GIVES A FF ABOUT TRUMP'S PRIVATE MARITAL AFFAIRS?
This is as disgusting as MAGA innuendos about BS!
You start with an outrageously disgusting video that's obviously blasphemy, produced to appeal to Evangelicals, yet not one word about that propaganda!
WTF, Ben?! Tennessee Brando could spend hours picking that BS apart! No doubt, he soon will. So, that's who I'll watch, instead of your ramblings over nothing.
TBH, I watch most MTN videos, but usually click away from yours as soon as I see your face. I only watched this one to the end to be sure that you didn't circle back to tRump's propaganda video. /smh

One tRumptard says, "Yes, I shot all of those people at the parade."
Another says, " Yes, I signed a fake elector document to illegally replace official certified electors and throw away voters' ballots."
Another says, "Yes, I tried to overthrow the US Senate. Vote for me so that I can obstruct it from functioning."
DOJ says, "Yes, we know all about it. But, we can't figure out the difference between seditious conspiracy, treason, an armed mob attack against our government, and the 1st Amendment. Wouldn't want to interfere with the midterms, like Comey did."
tRump says, "Neener, neener, neener! Catch me if you can!"
,U.S. Constitution Code Title 18 says, "The penalty for treason is death, or not less than five years' imprisonment (with a minimum fine of $10,000, if not sentenced to death). Any person convicted of treason against the United States also forfeits the right to hold public office in the United States."
LOCK THEM UP!!!

While I agree with what you've laid out, tRump has his own narcissistic plans:
tRump has already hijacked the GOP with radicalized GQP 'loyalists'.
tRump is threatening to fund his loyalists' midterm campaigns unless the R incumbents support his Big Lie. So, he still has his 'R' Congressmen by their balls.
tRump's Big Lie has already created sufficient doubts that red states are giving themselves the power to overthrow future election results.
So, why is tRump attacking members of the Republican party? tRump has NEVER been interested in political agendas, unless they serve his agenda. He is notorious for donating to both parties, just to clear the paths for approving his personal construction projects.
I've been able to read tRump liks an open book. He's like a bad poker player, who can't resist showing off his hand to spectators, before making his move. Now, I predict that tRump will announce the launch of his own 3rd political party, by next spring. That will peel off ~70% of the republican voters + ~50% of Independents.
tRump already has 90% control over the current 'R' Congressmen, so those cowards will defect like Afghan's security forces to the Taliban.
If the GQP succeeds in taking Congress next year, Biden becomes a lame duck and our democratic republic is doomed.
All of the above gives tRump all the power he needs to complete his dream of becoming the 1st dictator in US history, unless the DoJ holds him accountable and begins prosecution. At that point, tRump flees into exile, under Putin's protection.
"What will happen, if Joe Biden wins the election? Will I need to move to another country?" Like I said, tRump always broadcsts his intentions, then judges the reactions. He also wanted to get rid of Presidential term limits. That's how dictators and monarchs hold onto power.
Speaking of monarchs, the wannabe King of the World intentionally positioned his heirs to inherit his throne. He has 'love affairs' with the world's worst dictators, with aspirations of becoming a member, then their master. The man has no concept of his own limitations.
Please stay vigilant and pay attention, Folks Our nation is in grave danger.

Umm... I'd like to remind you that it was the naïve Evangelicals, who voted for tRump, believing that the mafioso 'don' is 'the Divine Chosen One' sent from your god to save America.
Now, do you admit that he is a lying, cheating, whoremongering, adulterous, traitor, who refused to step down, attempted to overthrow our election, attempted several coups, incited the attack upon OUR US Capitol, stole BOXES of top secret classified nuclear intel docs from the White House, lied about having them, hid them, photocopied them, uploaded those copies to a cloud server (to be sold to the highest bidder on the global black market of espionage)?
Your lot has a lot prayers over your own sins to be forgiven, before having any authority to comment on US politics.

Average American teens have only 3 choices:
1) Stay with parents on unlivable minimum wages,
2) begin adulthood from under a mountain of crippling student loan debt, or
3) survive on the streets as prostitutes or drug dealers.
Taxpayers have 2 options:
1) Pay for temporary higher education to enable young folks to become respectable members of society, or
2} Pay for the life long incarceration of unemployable repeat felons.
On the other hand, privileged elite teens have free rides to unlimited wealth,, served to them on silver platters by their parents, including higher education in ivy league universities, free housing, free EVs, and free tax write offs from corrupt, Republicant politicians.

@charlesscott27 What is wrong with you? You have already equated our troops to Nazis. Now, you equate them to lawless mafioso mobsters and gangbangers.
Why must you insist upon disparaging our soldiers, who defeated Hitler's Nazis in WWII.
I didn't agree with the Vietnam war, but everyone believed that it was intended to protect that region from the communist Chinese invasion.
Saddam Hussein was using chemical weapons to conduct genocide against his own people and that's why Congress passed the War Powers Act, which allowed Bush/Cheney to invade Iraq, based upon their lies regarding WMDs. But, our military didn't know about their lies until after the fact when WMDs were never found.
Our troops have always believed that they were fighting for honorable reasons. So, you comparisons are false.
But, let's examine your mafioso charge. Trump has behaved like a mafioso godfather ever since he took office. His first act was to summon every Republican congressman into the Oval Office to give them "an offer they could not refuse", so they pledged their allegiance to him over our nation. This was blatantly demonstrated during Trump's impeachment hearings and trial, when every one of them lied to the American public on national TV.
Then, there's all of those gangsta names that Trump assigns to his foes.
There was the shake down extortion attempt against Velinski, to withhold military support from the Ukraine during Russia's invasion, in exchange for a fake news story about Biden being under investigation.
"She's going to go through some bad things." That was another mafioso veiled threat against one of our ambassadors for exposing Trump's extortion attempt.
There are several books out from eye witnesses to Trump's corruption, if you can read.

@ExplainingComputers Thanks for taking the time to explain your reasoning, Chris. All very valid and convincing points, indeed.
Never have trusted my Android phone, neither. Plus, I just discovered that my 'Dumb' TV enabled Alexa during the last update.
Don't reckon many hackers would be interested in RPi OS, although they're just as vulnerable.
What's a hermit to do, Mate?
I also appreciate your setting my expectations straight regarding the prospects of touchscreen support with Mint, before I bricked my Surface tablet. Of course, I would have tested the OS from a bootable USB stick, first.
I've already switched the laser controller back to the Mini-PC, which refuses to allow it's 128GB SATA SSD to be upgraded. Such is life on the cutting edge, eh?

Why is Faux confronting the Secretary of Transportation over protests against SCOTUS , which is the inevitable result of their own legislating from the bench?
Oh, so that was only their prelude to justify the anti-gay protests against Pete's marriage? Isn't that what's next on their authoritarian chopping block?
tRumptards and bigoted Evangelicals only want to take away our Constitutional social freedoms, while ignoring our society being massacred with assault rifles.
"Just lock up the mentally ill, they opine."
IMO, anyone who believes that they need an AR15 for self defense against our government's military or just for some stupid right to 'stand their own ground' are already batshit crazy ad should have their weapons confiscated.
"The only thing that can stop a bad guy with an AR is a good guy with an AR." That didn't work out very well for the dead Uvaldi school kids, did it?
"If we ban guns, then only the bad guys will have them." Then, ban the sale of their AR ammo, until they either stop shooting or run out. Double the penalties of gun related crimes, without parole.
There are many potential solutions, but a serious lack of political will power to even debate them.

Over recent years, I've noticed my comments, defending the Biden administration against MAGA disinformation trolls, under the YT White House press briefings have been removed from view, especially on MSNBC and MSM channels. Yet, they still exist, because I keep receiving notifications whenever others add comments under those same threads.
Others have posted similar complaints.
'MAGA' seems to be an AI trigger word for immediate censorship
On the other hand, the radical right wing disinformation trolls' comments remain. IOW, they enjoy freedom of speech, while patriotic US citizens, who support our elected POTUS are being denied our 1st Amendment rights.
This is blatant political interference, deliberately engineered to control voters' minds, just like 1984, as Zuck recently mentioned.
YT even stopped feeding me MSNBC videos, until I complained in a comment. Then, they automagically returned.
I've also noticed that I can post whatever I please on independent, non-MSM channels.
I just Googled, "Who controls censorship on YT?"
It returned a YT video by "Mediaite" at the top of the results.
That video attempts to debunk Rachel Maddow's video interview with Barbara McQuade about AI controlling our lives to push the claim that 0 fact checking is better than social media having any oversight against propaganda.
Yes, Big Brother is definitely watching and controlling voters' minds.
This is a test on MSNBC to prove my point.

Bernie is biting off way more than he can chew by attacking Bloomberg, who has already avoided criticizing his Dem rivals in his anti-Trump ads. Those ads benefit the whole team. They should be more grateful and return his respect. Instead, Bernie is taking on the status quo, Wall Street, insurance companies, the top 5%, the DNC, Bloomberg, Biden, Mayor Pete, and Trump. With what? Scary unaffordable ideological policies like the 'Green Deal' and 'Medicare for All'. Personally, I have no problems with those policies, but the majority of mainstream American voters do.
Sanders' supporters are going to be very disappointed to see Bloomberg winning the nomination. Hell, it took Bernie's ideological hippie generation 70 years, just to get marijuana legalized.
Mike gets it done.🤙

I believe in two differing political parties to debate opposing POVs, just as our Founding Fathers' vision. But, the complacency for corruption and lawlessness of today's post tRumpian Republicans are nothing more than a disgrace to our nation and the opposite of everything that has ever made our nation great.
They're all fine and dandy with tRump's lying, cheating, whoremongering, the Big Lie, attempting a coup, and even storming our Capitol, ironically while waving Ole Glory and in the name of patriotic freedom.
tRump gets away with everything, so now tRumptards are following his example by passing state election laws that literally allow voters to be cheated out of their chosen leaders.
The tRumptarded cult will support any idiot who campaigns against the status quo, without even understanding what it means. smh

EVERYONE is pro-life and EVERYONE is anti-abortion, including the expectant mothers, who are forced into making that difficult choice, for both futures; the mother's as well as the future potential of the unborn child's life.
BTW, a fetus is NOT a human being, until it is capable of surviving outside of the mother's womb. Until then, it is the pregnant woman's right to stop the parasite from growing inside her own body and that's no one else's business, anymore than a bowel movement.
Furthermore, that expectant mother can replace that aborted embryo at any month and time of her own choosing. It's not a political matter nor the government's business. That's why abortions have been going on for centuries, but weren't discussed in public.
Why are these basic principles so difficult to comprehend? They're not. It wasn't a problem, until a rogue right wing SCOTUS created it.
VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO!!

WTF is Michael Moore, if not a millionaire putting his fat ass upon the scales of our election? What gives him the right and who cares what he thinks? Moore needs to STFU and let the chips fall as they may.
Democrats are such sycophants, eating their own kind. DNC corruption continues to help Republicans to get elected, due to shear voter disillusionment with the process. "What's the point of voting, when our votes don't count?" They simply never learn from their own mistakes.
Meanwhile, Trump is an out of control mob boss, who has thumbed his nose at our Constitution and Congressional oversight. He literally believes that he is above the law and has demonstrated an absolute stranglehold over the Republican party.
Trump is an irresponsible bully, who gives everyone gangsta nicknames and brutally punishes anyone who opposes him. He rules out of fear and everyone under his thumb hates him. All along and at this very minute, Trump's self-appointed Cabinet (mob) of henchmen are plotting a coup upon our nation.
Trump has already suggested the elimination of term limits (blatantly illustrated in his recent tweet, with him campaigning into 2048) and has his heirs poised to inherit his crown and kingdom, aka USA. If re-elected, Trump will become our 1st dictator or, as he fantasizes, the biggliest King of the World in history.
Every day, the MSM provide Trump with 24/7 free publicity by broadcasting his propaganda. Therefore only a media mogul, like Mike Bloomberg, is capable of defeating Trump with millions of dollars’ worth of counter messaging ads.
IMO, Mike Bloomberg is our only hope of saving our democratic republic against Trump's tyranny. Mike Bloomberg is a true patriot, literally spending a fortune out of his own pocket to save our nation from a lying, cheating, corrupt traitor.
BTW, Bloomberg's anti-Trump ads will run up until the November election, even if he is not the Dems' nominee. IOW, they benefit all Dem candidates. How generous is that? They should be thanking Mike, instead of demonizing him with accusations of him trying to buy the election. He's only buying ads, just as they are.
Furthermore, Bloomberg only entered the race because none of the field has a chance of defeating Trump (including Sanders). Even after giving others a 3 month head start and 4 state handicap, Bloomberg's poll numbers are skyrocketing. Please support our nation's only hope for survival.🙏

That tells me all I need to know in order to tell where you are coming from. You get your info from right wingnut jobs, who are spreading lies, conspiracy BS, and hysteria just to use fools like you in order to make money. No, I'm not supporting tRumptard traitors, such as they.

@drayker99 BFS, tRumptard! The 2nd amandment was never intended as justification to overthrow our own government of elected officials. The Founding Fathers designed our government to be of the people, by the people and for the people. So, if the majority want to replace the leaders, then they can do it through the democratic election process, just as we did last November by getting rid of tRump.
The 2nd amendment was written before the US had a cohesive military and pioneers had to defend themselves from the British monarchy and/or other foreign nations, such as the French and Spanish.
Now, the USA has the strongest, most invincible military in the world to defend our citizens and private militias are actually illegal. Your little pea shooters are useless against our government's military.
Why do you think tRump waited to call off his mob, until the National Guard was being deployed? Simply because he didn't want his fans to get hurt.
So, STFU you anarchist Traitor, because you don't know what you're talking about. Radical right wing extremists just like you are the greatest threat to our national security and your entire arsenal should be confiscated, based upon your stupid comment, promoting yet another coup attempt upon our nation's government.
The majority of voters have already spoken and Biden is our chosen POTUS. So, stop your whining, lil Bitch.

@drayker99 Really? Not half as much as I do. It's only a matter of choosing to tell the truth over lies. The USA needs hundreds more patriotic keyboard warriors to battle the right wing Qanon conspiracies, Russian trolls, and anti-Dem propaganda.
This is the front line of the information war against our democratic republic. Russia and China don't need nukes, while they can eat our nation's heart out, from within, just like a cancer.
Since tRump, Congressional Republicans stand in front of national TV and lie their asses off, just to appease their master.
They are enablers and conspirators in the Capitol insurrection, which is the reason they voted down the bipartisan investigation.
Mat Gaetz and MTG are even campaigning together to fund raise.
This is NOT what America professes to be, a nation of laws in defense of truth and justice.
Try it sometime. It feels good to be doing what's right for the nation, regardless of political affiliation. I'm sure that there are many fine Republicans left and I respect the concept of debating POVs, who eventually compromise to serve the mainstream. But, I condemn individuals using excessive force to bully their ways.
I also condemn Moscow Mitch conducting 100% political obstructionism to enable the minority of Senators to block progress while China is walking all over US with state sponsored innovation and manufacturing.

"Stay at home orders is like house arrest" "apart from slavery...it's the greatest intrusion on civil liberties in American history"
NO! 200,000 have already died; staying at home and wearing masks are people's only defense. They should be voluntary for anyone with an ounce of common sense. It's a public health issue, not an intrusion upon civil liberty. Exposing others is 'willful homicide'.
"BLM uses a small number of killings of blacks by police, usually less than a dozen a year, during conflicts as props"
Fact: 250 blacks were killed by police in 2019
"What do you mean by 'interfere'? All prosecutory power is vested in the Attorney General."
IOW, Barr believes that he is American's one man justice system; capable of interfering in court cases, freeing convicted criminals, and assembling his personal illegal secret militia of unidentifiable storm troopers.
BARR IS THE LAW, who enabled Trump to be above the law! IOW, Trump is America's 1st dictator and Barr is Trump's head of the SS.😒
This is un-American, by definition. Thousands of our soldiers died in Europe to stop Hitler's ruthless reign of terror. Patriotic Generals and Republicans are standing against this regime, warning all Americans of how close we are to the slippery slope of Fascism. Yet, we see ~300 heavily armed, right-wing militias willing to defend Trump, while ignorantly waving Old Glory.
NO TRUE PATRIOT CAN SUPPORT TRUMP'S RE-ELECTION/COUP D'ETAT! TRUMP IS A TRAITOR AND SO IS ANYONE WHO VOTES FOR HIM!🐀

Yes, I've noticed that the least educated are usually the most opinionated. Starts with an attitude of being more intelligent than one's peers, not needing higher education, then resenting successful people who act like they are superior, because of a 'piece of paper'.
These folks are usually inadequately equipped to have civil intellectual debates, so out of frustration, they result to the use of force to bully others into submission, just as their parents had treated them. Normal behavior, right?
Instead of being educated in scientific facts, the only book they read is one of 'divine' superstitious fairytales and mythology. Then, they are empowered by 'the will of god', which is their core justification to act out whatever they imagine (aka, exploit for personal benefit). God's will always trumps man's laws, right?
Now we see public educational standards and women's rights being sabotaged by these very same idiots.
IMO, evangelicals are easy prey for the likes of tRump's mafioso crime mob. "Chosen one", my ass.🙄
Greatest respects to Germany's political leaders, their mindful priorities of governance, and the obvious success that results in those policies. Great country & great people.

@jleezy612 Good position. Bad example.
9/11 wouldn't have happened, if Bush hadn't started warmongering in the Middle East to control Arab oil fields. Then, 'W'/Cheney lied about WMDs as an excuse to conduct "Shock and Awe' bombing upon Iraq, ailed to capture Bin Laden, scapegoated our Taliban allies, and started another economy crippling 20 year war, which creeped into 'nation building' failures, deaths, and the recent disastrous withdrawal, scheduled by tRump to happen under Biden's term, while being impeached in 2019. /smh

@bobgriffith1810 Do you support killing and eating animals? Humans are only animals, so what's the difference? Oh, the soul, eh? Now, your argument is based upon your personal religious beliefs, isn't it? According to the 1st Amendment, no laws shall be made, based upon religion. That was the basis of Roe v Wade. So, that's the law and you can stop forcing your religion upon a woman's legal right to choose whether to bring another life into this world.
No doubt, you are also against birth control pills. So, you want force women to get pregnant, as well as to have the child.
Oh, so abstinence is your answer. Then, you intend to lock up all teenage girls until they are 18 and married? That's illegal too. Besides, how would they go to school?
Your assertions would only result in back street abortions, putting children in orphanages, and keeping women at home, barefoot and pregnant, unable to work and support themselves.
Don't know what the 54 and counting refers to.
But, your shortsightedness and hypocrisy is self-evident.
I've already disputed your misguided BS about the BLM movement being leftists or the cause of riots. They are practicing their 1st Amendment rights to peaceful protest against police brutality and recorded murders of their community.
Your anarchist boogaloo boys and right-wing white supremacists are the villains, rioters, and arsonists who arrive at the BLM protests, fully armed, carrying Molotov cocktails.
If you are going to spew your shit in my direction, you had better have better ammo than Trump's lies.

I've dabbled with most drugs, except for heroine or anything involving needles. While touring with bands, we called speed 'snarling crystals'. Cocaine was over priced and over rated, IMO.
Friends on downers and glue sniffers seemed pathetic.
Never liked being around loud obnoxious drunks. So, pot was my choice of vices.
Warned my niece to stay away from crack, then she overdosed in her early 20's, with a baby.
"Different strokes for different folks."
@ 71 years old, I would love to have another trip on LSD, not because I'm addicted, but because of the therapeutic benefits of 'clearing the cobwebs' of the mind. TBH, I'd have a go at DMT, if I knew that it wasn't laced with Fentanyl.
I used to enjoy 'shrooms, until one day I realized that one can poison the mind into a delirious state of bliss. That was my last.
There's 1/2 a bottle of post-op Percocet that's been sitting i my fridge for 5 years, just in case I have a bad back injury.
I've been a daily user of marijuana for 50 years and vape 80% THC concentrate and my tolerance is so high that I don't even cop a buzz anymore. Now, I often go hours before realizing, "Oh yeah. There's my vaporizer that I haven't used yet today."
I have Kahlua with my morning coffee and a glass of wine with dinner, not because I need it, but because that my standard of lifestyle.
But, tobacco was a different story. I smoked a pack every day, until 2002, when a co-worker gifted me a pack of Camel Turkish Jade, which triggered rheumatoid arthritis. Then, all tobacco would cause crippling joint pain. I enjoyed smoking tobacco and tried Swisher Sweets, cigars, pipe tobacco, everything before realizing that the pain wasn't worth the pleasure. But, I still had the cravings, especially while around other smokers or while drinking. So, I would beg others for just one cigarette.
20 years later, my tobacco cravings are finally over.
Good riddance.

Soo... I'm a 70 year old male heterosexual, who has been wearing long hair since 1970. Am I going to be labeled as a drag queen and arrested, now?
Lots of women wear short hair, T-shirts, and pants.
Some men wear makeup, ear rings, and/or kilts.
Who decides what defines 'drag queen'?
This wasn't even a problem, until radical right wing authoritarian Evangelicals decided to impose their narrow minded religion upon the nation. Now, they've got their noses up women's vaginas, school bathrooms, and everyone's bedrooms.
Vote blue, no matter who!

tRump's father was KKK, arrested in full white hood and robe regalia, marching down the streets of NYC.
His business partner was a registered Nazi. Together, they redlined areas of NYC and refused to rent their apartments to black folks.
How can you be so willfully ignorant of the vastly different reputations of these two candidates, one with a black VP and black lesbian Press Secretary?
How many black Congressional legislators do you see in either party?

I want to know why it was necessary for the Select Committee to carry the DoJ' s water by doing it's job of conducting all of these investigations, sworn interviews, subpoenas, and public hearings.
Why weren't tRump & his co-conspirators indicted 18 months ago, instead of being allowed to continue riling up his base of anarchists, insert loyalist candidates into Congress, and continue disgracing our nation with his Big Lie?
Why are the seditious conspirators STILL serving tRump and allowed to sabotage our Congress?
If the DoJ had done it's job, Dems would still be the House majority, pushing our nation forward, instead of radical right wing idiots conducting BS revenge hearings against President Biden, Hunter and Dems.

Adam Kinzinger, ( Michael Steele), and Liz Cheney are among the dying breed of honest, respectable Republicans.
The House Committee did an incredible service to our nation by doing the investigations, interviewing sworn witnesses, and exposing the whole truth about tRump's treasonous behavior, after the 2020 election. They went above and beyond their Constitutional duties to perform the DOJ's duties.
My beef is with the cowardly A G Garland, who deliberately ignored their 3 public hearings, which enabled tRump's extremist MAGA seditious conspirators of Jan 6 to infiltrate Congress, instead of being prosecuted in shame. Garland's cowardice is why MAGA controls the House.
tRump waited for that to happen, before announcing his 2024 campaign to escape accountability under the disguise of election interference. So, the cowardly Garland put Jack Smith and family in jeopardy from the mob, instead of taking down 'The Donald' himself.
No thanks to Garland's willful ignorance, now our nation's very democracy is in jeopardy, as the world watches in horror. I blame all of our current worries on Merrick Garland, tRump and MAGA's #1 enabler.
TRUMP'S A TRAITOR!!
GARLAND'S A COWARD!!
LET'S GO JACK!!
LOCK THEM UP!!
MAGA ON BIDEN 2024-2028!

Emma is obviously a biased Bernie supporter, who is only parroting DNC lies about Bloomberg's track record. Bernie has rekindled the ideological hippie movement of the 1960s. But, although I have always agreed with those values, Bernie's movement is too far left for the majority of voters, so it is not a viable political platform. Trump will decimate Bernie's campaign with propaganda (see link below). The truth about Bloomberg can easily be found at Wikipedia. Just Google 'Mike Bloomberg', then click their bio link. Please check the facts for yourself.🙏
Bloomberg has been a Democrat most of his life, but was forced to run as a Republican for one term, solely because the DNC rejected his campaign. Then, he moved back to being an Independent and finally a Democrat.
Mike has funded numerous Democratic campaigns throughout states and the Congress, including Nancy Pelosi's. So, Trump's impeachment never would have happened without him. Furthermore, all of Bloomberg's policies are in line with the Democratic party. Most of his income is spent upon helping mankind and the planet, including funding America's unpaid portion of the Paris Climate Accord and converting coal fired power plants to clean burning natural gas.
But, here's the real kicker that Emma is ignoring:
"The Trump campaign machine known as the "death star" is already in action.

When that hits the fan, Bloomberg will be the only Dem candidate still standing. So, pick your billionaire, folks. Either the traitor attempting a coup d'etat to become King of the World, OR the true patriot putting the future our nation's democracy above his own personal wealth.

"Is Obama right today, because things have changed?" Just because we don't see him, that doesn't mean that he doesn't see us and current affairs. Obama was a centrist and still is. That's because he believes in mainstream governance, serving the will of the majority. He's absolutely right. Far left wingers, like AOC, are waving a 'socialism' flag in the name of the Democratic Party. That's precisely the best way to lose the general election.
Right or wrong, their policies are too extreme for the electorate. Yes, everyone should have healthcare, but there's no need to blow up the current system. Simply offer a less expensive public option and people will eventually sign up. Insurance companies will either become more affordable or unable to compete.
Yes, global warming has to be a major priority. But, don't start telling everyone that they specifically have to purchase new e-vehicles, solar panels, and replace all power stations... before the election. That only guarantees none of those things will happen, because you will never be given the power of office. First, get elected. Second, work for bi-partisan support, once you are in office.

2.5GPA True, but there are also mineral rights, mining leases, permits, etc, etc.
On the other hand, what right does anyone have to destroy mother nature, exploit her natural resources for personal profit, while being subsidized by the nation's taxpayers, then gouge them for record profiteering?
I believe in the Native American way of thinking that no one can own the Earth. It nurtures us, therefore it is our responsibility to nurture nature's eco system.
Yeah, I know that's not how works, nowadays, Bud.

To these Dems, who ae still wet behind their ears, I say, "YOU REALLY PISS ME OFF!"
Show some respect for your elders' wisdom and experiences of which you are clueless."
Teenagers think they already know it all.
College preppies think a piece of paper makes them superior.
Young families are only concerned about making their own ends meet, while neglecting their own offspring with baby sitters and preschool.
You're all about "I, my me, mine" (Google it).
You think you're so radical. What do you know of Joan Baez, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, CSN&Y, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, the peaceful teachings of the Buddha, Krishna, & other philosophers?
FYI, I'm a 72 year old laser artist, developing a new MIDI controlled projection system in C. How's your coding skill level? You've never even herd of Laserium shows, much less know what I'm even talking about, CHILDREN. /smh
It's the grandparents who selfishly give love to the younger generations and are from the original politically enlightened generation of hippie tree hugging environmentalists, sexual freedoms, civil rights, women's rights, animal rights, ...

#1: Polls are only as accurate as MSM punditry, which sways public opinions. Both-sides-isms granting Q-nuts free equal air time is a major part of the problem, as well as radical right wing social media echo chambers, like X & TS.
#2: Timing is everything and the life-long public servant, politician, Congressman, VP, & POTUS knows how to play he game, including how to use all the ropes on stage.
Biden jumped into the 2020 race, just in time to stop Mafioso Don's regime.
Biden ran a responsible and effective campaign, during the COVID shutdowns, and won.
Biden stepped into the Oval office with a popular, detailed, long term climate/infrastructure/healthcare agenda. Nancy Pelosi skillfully pushed the majority of it through Congress, before the midterms would inevitably render Biden a lame duck (with MAGA saboteurs in the House).
Now that Biden's infrastructure projects are injecting union wages into local communities throughout our nation, people will notice.
The only fly in the broth is Garland's delayed administration of justice againd the godfather, who should be barred from ballots and sitting in prison, instead of STILL threatening our nation.
Garland is a coward and tRump's enabler. Biden's only mistake is not firing him for incompetence and dereliction of duty..

$2 gas was in March 2020, due to the low demand during COVID shutdowns, before Putin invaded Ukraine and prior to the Russian oil sanctions, decreased supply = higher prices. That has nothing to do with political agendas
Inflation has NEVER been 0%, but has returned to 2% norms, thanks to Bidenomics, which has given US the strongest post-pandemic recovery in the world.
"Secure borders"? What does that even mean? During his 4 years in office, tRump only built 50 miles of his stupid wall and Mexico never paid a penny. Biden's administration spent months negotiating a 'Secure Border' bill, written by Sen. Langford, one of the most conservative Congressmen, which tRump killed before it was put on the House floor for an up/down vote.

Glen Kirschner just stated that the DoJ is part of the Executive Branch, which is headed by the POTUS. So, I Googled the org chart and learned the folowing:
"The department (of justice) is headed by the U.S. attorney general, who reports directly to the president of the United States and is a member of the president's Cabinet. The current attorney general is Merrick Garland, who was sworn in on March 11, 2021."
But, the WH's official position is to not interfere with the DoJ's investigations into tRump's criminal activities, right?
IOW, Merrick Garland's 'boss' has neither instructed nor ordered him to indict tRump. So, the AG has no compelling reason to jeopardize himself nor his family by taking on the mafioso 'don'.
Now, I finally understand why AG Garland can continue to be such a coward, instead of performing his professional duties as AG.
Could the problem be that President Biden simply hasn't said, "Sic 'em, AG Garland!" 🤦♂

@beckycastile6896 Yes, you're entitled to your opinion and yes everyone has one, just like the old saying goes.
But, when you don't believe anything from anyone, it sounds like you don't trust your own elected government officials, so what's the point of paying attention or voting at all.
That's where I must beg to differ. If we don't pay attention, then we are only being ignorant and won't know which candidates are worth voting for, so what's the point, right? IMO, ignorant shouldn't vote, because that's how we ended up with tRump.
Furthermore, ignorant people who don't vote have no right to complain about their politicians and government, right? IOW, if anyone is complaining, then they should know all of the facts before complaining and should have made the effort to have their opinions counted at the ballot box. Otherwise, they are only pulling opinions our of their backsides and undermining their own government after effectively saying, I don't care which leaders the majority chooses.
I used to be one of those politically ignorant people, until I heard a very impressive candidate speak with truth, clarity of thought, and I agreed with nearly everything he said. He ended up saving our economy and made a significant difference in people's lives. Yet, some of the MSM and other politicians lied about who he was.
So, I started paying attention and became actively involved in my own small way. So, here I am, trying my best to counter lies and deception. Many attack me and try to stick labels all over me, as if to stick me inside a limited pigeonhole. But, I refuse to let them and say that I'm a patriotic US citizen, just like the majority of US citizens. Then SOMETIMES, we get into debating the problems, instead of each other.
Our leaders are not from some remote planet; they are only a reflection of ourselves. We hire and fire them at the ballot box. Would you hire an employee without an interview? Would you not check their references to ensure that they are being honest with you, before giving them the keys to your cash register? Or would you ignore the details, allow yourself to be burned, then trust no one.
I don't want to live in a country with corrupt leaders, working for themselves, instead of for We the People.
Best regards, Betty. Please stay safe and help to keep others safe by making sure that you and your loved ones are fully vaccinated. 😎

Luv ya, Anna. And I empathize with the Ukrainians, who have been victimized over the past 2 years of Putin's ruthless, unprovoked invasion
On the other hand, after the consequences of 20 years' worth of US troops being deployed and sacrificed in the Middle East, we are also war weary.
That's why President Biden is being very careful to not get US dragged into a war against Russia, a nation with nuclear weapons and a fascist dictator, who won't accept defeat. Our POTUS is 1st and foremost responsible for the lives of US, especially the troops that he commands to go into harm's way.
Perhaps the wise old man was a little slow off the starting point, but so far WW III has been avoided and Ukraine is still a sovereign nation, defending itself against Russia. It was a cautious compromise, Instead of storming in with overwhelming force and Putin counterattacking with nukes, the lid is still on this volatile pot, while ratcheting up your arsenal.
It's not to everyone's liking. But, could be much worse.
Now, the question will be, "What will Putin do when the F-16s start arriving and NATO nations start engaging?
This is an extremely volatile time for Ukrainians.
I hope the trapped animal, Putin, doesn't go down fighting with everything he has got.
Careful what you wish for, Dear Anna.
SLAVA UKRAINE!!

@slimhazard Yeah, I know, because have 3 of them and love them. Yes, the colored header, labeling, and magnetic cover are sweet to behold.
But, I've also actually tried using HATS and experienced GPIO conflicts with the onboard fan and power. So, I wanted to give folks a heads up. I use other less expensive cases, like the versatile "iUniker Raspberry Pi 4 Fan ABS Case with Cooling Fan, Raspberry Pi 4 Heatsink, Simple Removable Top Cover for Pi 4 Model B/ 4B" for my maker projects.

@ceeceedan8381 You personally know 'most of those people' and their sources of income, do you? IOW, THOSE people don't deserve government assistance to feed their children but YOU do.
Consider this: What happens to the taxpayer money given to poor people? They spend every penny on food, housing, utility bills, whatever. IOW, that same government money supports landlords, utility companies, grocery stores, and all of their employees. Don't they deserve to earn living wages or would you rather seen them being laid off, too? Don't they pay taxes on their wages? Don't the corporate shareholders profit and pay taxes, too?
Nearly every penny goes right back into our economy, keeping it healthy and 401Ks funded.
Those poor folks are only keeping the food in their stomachs. I have no problem with feeding poor children.
"OMG! What about those drug addicts giving MY money to drug dealers!", you decry. Legalize marijuana to defund those drug cartels, I reply. Stop wasting taxpayer on incarcerating harmless users and turning them into unemployable felons.
Simple minded thinking doesn't solve complex problems.

@maxsalcedo2030 Yes. Gerrymandering needs to stop.
But, let's not forget about Citizens United and the vast amounts of dark money, flowing from who knows where, that is funding right wing campaigns.
Citizens United needs to be repealed.
The Electoral college needs to be eliminated, after they attempted to replace the official slate with fakes. 1 politically ignorant rancher's vote shouldn't equal several votes of citizens dealing with urban violence.
1 person, one vote. Ditch the middlemen and lobbyists. Politicians need to serve their constituencies, not corporate greed and ESPECIALLY not a corrupt wannabe oligarch, who only wants to infiltrate our government with 'loyalist' idiots.
Ranked choice voting in al states, so that multiple parties can compete, without being election spoilers that result in second best winners.
Given only a dozen more Dems in Congress, all of these solutions could become the new reality of US politics. So near, yet so far.

FYI: BBB is a 10 year long, much needed initiative to invest into vitally important infrastructure, increase domestic hi-tech manufacturing independence, provide a national network of EV charging stations, broadband communications, climate change mitigation, higher education to train the above workforce, and much much more.
President Biden has already reduced the Fed's annual spending by $1.7 Trillion..
Let's discuss tRump's $7Trillion debt ceiling overshoot during his 4 years in office. $2 Trillion was tax breaks for his filthy rich cronies, who only put their savings into more Wall Street stocks, which helped no one but themselves. Rescinding that giveaway would fund BBB.
This administration has hundreds of highly educated accountants, who know how to count beans far better than you.
No overshoot. No tipping points. No BS warp speed collapse.
Tell me what your plan is to mitigate these devastating affects of climate change.

@maodmifcnr I'm very aware of the fact that Taiwan wants independence from China and have great empathy for their endeavor. I would feel exactly the same, if in their shoes.
I am also very aware of the current bilateral 'One China' policy that has avoided volatile military conflicts between Taiwan, China, and the US.
Many Texans want to secede from the US, as well. Does that satisfy your criteria for equivalencies?
Should China send their military into Texas to interfere in US domestic matters of sovereignty? Of course not, because head-to head confrontations between the world's most powerful nuclear militaries must be avoided, above all else.
As Xi stated, neither should interfere in the other's domestic problems.
The self inflicted US dependency upon Taiwan's IC manufacturing and our exploitation of their cheap labor force is the only reason the US is interested in protecting its independence from China, not for humanitarian rights.
If China invaded Taiwan, our auto industry would collapse as well as our military industrial complex, which would jeopardize our national security. Xi and Biden both know the stakes, which has nothing to do with human rights of Taiwan's population.
The US has simply been lulled into this dangerous situation out of corporate greed.
Fortunately, President Biden has been negotiating alternative supply chains in SE Asian countries, as well as providing incentives for US manufacturing to return within our own shores.
IMO, President Biden is the best POTUS we have had in 1/2 a century, by addressing the root of our problems and the incredible challenges that lay ahead for future generations.
Meanwhile, across the political divide, Q-nuts are only interested in sabotaging his efforts on behalf of a traitor.

@maodmifcnrGoogle 'china sea' in lower case. It is capitalized because it is a formal place on every map, named as such because China owns it's eastern coastline and the sea beyond, traditionally speaking.
Taiwan owns its coastline, as well. But, there is an international shipping route in between, of which the US navy patrols primarily to protect our national interest of maintaining trade with Taiwan.
Of course, Taiwan is asking for our military to protect them. So is Ukraine, but Congressional Q-nuts are cutting off the aide that President Biden has promised.
What are you expecting him to do, take on China's military and start WW III, simply because Taiwan is asking US to? Get real... China has 3 times our population, and multiple times our our numbers of troops, plus hypersonic terrain guided missiles that we have no defenses against. Plus, Taiwan is on China's doorstep for immediate reinforcements of weaponry. Xi could take out Taiwan with nothing more than a nod, leaving US without supplies of semiconductors for our military.
Instead of arguing from your posterior, I suggest that you do some research of Chinese history. You will learn that the Taiwanese were once Chinese citizens, who tried to rebel against the Chinese government, lost that battle, then were exiled into isolation on the island of Taiwan.
The UK did the same by sending their malcontents into isolation in Australia, no offense to our fellow Aussie 'colonials'. JS
As far as I'm concerned. personally, none if this Taiwan situation would be any of our business, had we made it our business to keep IC manufacturing in the USA, instead of exploiting foreign workers.
There are racial and inhumane atrocities throughout the world, including within our own nation. We should be tending to own social injustices, before imposing our hypocritical standards upon other nations.

I'll be damned before I'll spend the next 2 years watching pundits opining over 2024. They are NOT fortune tellers, are always scrambling to stay in front of their competitors, are ALWAYS wrong about their predictions, and should be reporting on current affairs, such as the numerous pieces of legislation this administration is passing through a divided Congress.
I've got my own predictions:
tRump goes to prison within the next 2 years.
DeSantis becomes the GQP's leader,
MTG and the BS Freedom Caucus of Q-nuts lead McCarthy by the nose for the next 2 years, creating a dysfunctional Congress.
The GQP implodes by 2024, Biden's agenda gains traction.
Dems pave the roads to a more sustainable, more independent, more prosperous future, and millennials rule the nest for the next decade.

@michaelblankenau6598 Second thought, I'm not through with you, so I've returned to explain myself, specifically to address your own ignorance of wordsmith, using colorful colloquialisms for communicative effect, providing some humorous innuendo to the exchange, spanning cultural boundaries.
Proper English grammar only indicates a privileged, educated person, who conforms to discipline; an indoctrinated do-gooder, who is 'better' than others... obviously insecure by making a point of correcting others; a tight-assed know-it-all, who does everything properly, in order to be a 'success', not on your own terms, but society's.
I've traveled the world and experiences many cultures, who don't speak proper English, but would have missed out by staying inside a hotel room, instead of being amused by how others butcher the English language.
How ironic that an old hermit needs to teach social skills to some college preppie.
Surprise! Surprise, Sarge!
I'm not only a hermit, TheOleHermit is my online persona, the descendant of Amos McCoy, Yosemite Sam, and Gabby Hayes, mostly triggering, insulting, and shaming tRumptarded traitors. it's a matter of patriotic defense of our country... a daily keyboard warrior, asa matter of fact. Get it?
"If ya jus' give 'em a quick, short sharp shock, then they won't do it anymore. Can ya dig it? I man good manners don't cost nuttin, do they"

@mikeinprague "I certainly was in the right. Yeah, he was cruisin' for a bruisin'..." - more Floyd lyrics.
But any arse can criticize how others express themselves, Sir.
Perhaps that person actually is 10 years old and only homeschooled. Did you consider that before making such a stink?
Brits can precisely identify the origins of their countrymen by their different accents. Some are difficult to understand as English. Are they wrong or simply being themselves?
I haven't had an English grammar class in 60 years and am fully aware of my imperfect punctuation. BFD. This 72 year old ain't goin' back to grade school. But, I'm developing a laser synth PCB in Kicad, thanks to YouTube U.
What gives you the authority to be YT's grammar police, from the get-go?
Weaponizing your higher education to put down the less fortunate, instead of lifting folks up, are we?
Your arrogance is still on display and this trivial pursuit has achieved nothing more than distract from the subject matter.
Hell, I don't even remember the context in which that person used 'could of'. Isn't that more expressively entertaining than, "Oh my. I seem to have forgotten that person's point."
'ere 'n Merica, we gots a fing called 'freedom of speech', of which I fully exercise, any damned way I please.
Your opinion is irrelevant and has caused more trouble on this thread than your couple of sentences were worth.
Languages change over time. Slang is everywhere. Sick = great. Kids don't use full keyboards, so the resort to minimizing characters, 'UR' vs 'you are'.
now, I more important fish to fry (important matters to attend to).
I hope this exchange has made you more introspective and mindful of how you're words of grammatical perfection are perceived by others on the receiving end. Yes you are correct, while still behaving with errors.
No one is perfect.
Some of us are deliberately not, just to spite authoritarians.
Your demeaning efforts to educate the world are futile.
Been real....

I'm running mine inside a heatsink/case with dual mini 1" fans. It runs a little warmer ~45 deg @ idle, but Chris' ./temp_test.sh only maxes it out ~63 deg, still well below throttling temp.
My Pi4 had a similar M.2 SSD in a USB3.1 adapter case as the one Chris replaced. But, I didn't like the clutter mounted on the back of my 7" touchscreen. So last night I replaced the 512 GB Transcend SSD with a 512 GB Sandisk USB3.1 drive that only protrudes 10 mm out of the port. After copying the SSD onto the USB3.1 drive, I was pleasantly surprised that it seemed to run just as well as the SSD, including the playback of everyone's favorite YT channel @ 1080p w/o a hiccup. Woohoo!
But, then I saw this video and ran Chris' hdparm command.
The Sandisk drive returned an error:
SG_IO: bad/missing sense data, sb [ ]
APT: Unsupported device
But, then it reported only 62 MB/s (bummer)
On the other hand, the Transcend SSD reported ~240 MB/s (only 2/3 of Chris' results).
I still prefer the small discreet USB drive, so I'll give the Sandisk a good thrashing to determine it's usability limitations, but so far so good. Perhaps the low MB/s reported was related to the error msg, but doesn't affect performance in the 'real world'.
So, if you are looking for a very small, compact solution, this might be an option and the data useful for you to know. :-)
UPDATE: Although the Sandisk USB 3.1 flash drive is specified @ 130 MB/s write speed, several other buyers have also written reviews complaining about only getting ~64 MB/s, similar to my results. IOW, the Sandisk does not meet it's claims. Also, there are other USB 3.1 flash drives, which tout 300 MB/s. :-(

@Ervinabrahamian As if your BS really happened? But, yes tRump shat himself, just as I stated. Google it, tRumptard.
Truth? WTF do Q conspirators know about truth? You don't even know the meaning of TDS, so I'll explain it to you, Child.
TDS = Trump (induced) Derangement Syndrome. IOW, only tRumptards are infected with it after drinking too much of their cult leader's koolaide.
Since you're too ignorant to understand the root of that reference, I'll explain that as well.
There once was a religious cult leader, named Jim Jones, who moved his entire following of hundreds of misguided religious freaks into a remote 'compound' in S America, where he convinced all of them to drink poison laced koolaide. He was found with a bullet in the back of his head, surrounded by hundreds of dead men, women, and their children.
You can't possibly imagine my personal life, nor is it any of your business. There is absolutely nothing that would nor could motivate me to lie about anything.

@kevinshumaker3753 Have to respectfully disagree, Bro. @Tano is making a very valid point that could save others $$.
I've been there and done that, too. NVMe SSDs are far more expensive than SATA SSDs and have absolutely no benefit, because of the USB3.0 bottleneck. I've wasted money on the USB3.0/NVMe adapters and the Geekworm 872 board via USB3. Both need additional power, too.
What's the point of paying the extra $$ without gaining faster R/W speeds? Why have a flimsy USB/NVMe adapter sticking out of the USB3.0 port?
I'll be using my M.2 NVMe SSD on a CM4 I/O board with M.2 NVMe via PCIe x1, instead.
BTW, I use uSD cards to boot different distros from a USB.0 adapter, which is twice as fast as the uSD slot. My M.2 SSD is purely for data, downloads, and offline github software repositories. I can do whatever I like with the OS, w/o disturbing my storage.

Here we go again, with Gergen drawing parallelisms between tRump and Biden, one a traitor compared to a life long public servant. Biden only returned from his retirement to the political arena to "save the soul of our nation against another term of tRumpism." None of the younger Dem candidates stood a chance against tRump's demeaning rhetoric. Stop kicking the old man, who is saving our democratic republic. He is doing a fantastic job despite 100% opposition from tRump's Congressional GQP anarchists and seditious conspirators.
I'm 70 and, yes I've lost a 'few steps' over the years, but my additional experiences, maturity, understanding of youthful ambitions, and consistent moral standards haven't made my judgements less accurate, but all the more credible. I simply take a little more time to consider other POVs first, instead of trying to quickly 'shoot from the hip', which is far less reliable. Young folks have personal goals for success as priorities. Older folks have grown beyond those selfish motivations and are more concerned with leaving behind legacies of a better world for future generations.
President Biden's agenda is just as progressive as any young 'whipper-snapper's', but he is a seasoned professional who understands how to compromise and move legislation forward, regardless of 100% opposition from across the aisle. BBB is the perfect example.
I'd vote for a patriotic, seasoned public servant over an inexperienced, ideological, tRumptarded 'loyalist' Q-nut traitor/anarchist/white supremacist/authoritarian/neo-nazi any day of the week, until the last nail is in his/her coffin. For that matter, what's the difference between a dead Dem and a do-nothing GQP Congressional obstructionist? A salary from taxpayers.

"What can be done" to stop far right extremist rhetoric, anti-American white supremacist social media propaganda that is ripping our nation apart and killing innocent people?
I'm online every single day, confronting those anarchistic enemies within and countering their lies with truth and Constitutional reminders.
I'm here fighting their hate speech with my own speeches of hatred against TDS infected, weak-minded, tRumptarded traitors, the cult following of the notorious life-long lying, cheating, whoremongering, mafioso godfather don/wannabe dictator/king of the world/traitor tRump.
It's a matter of yin vs yang, opposing forces pulling the mainstream status quo; to and fro, left vs right, truth vs Faux lies.
Messaging on social media has become weaponized by foreign enemies' troll farms, mal-contented opinionated authoritarian anarchists, and under-educated idiots who seriously believe they know more than scientists and scholars. These radicalized idiots are the ones who are replacing seasoned leaders with incompetent rebel rousers, just to throw wrenches into the gears of governance. The consequences don't matter, as long as our government is rendered dysfunctional, then they're happy to believe that they've won something.
I deliberately shame these traitors, call them out for their ignorance and remind them of how they are the insignificant minority of losers, as well as how REAL patriots feel about traitors. I invite them to come and get one of their beloved's golden showers.
"Evil thrives when good men do nothing."
I'm sick of 6 years worth of tRump's constant drumming of anti-Dem demonization, without being challenged by good decent US citizens, who simply go along to get along. No fight is ever won by passively taking punches.
Freedom of speech, Folks. Use it to defend our nation before we lose both... in less than 2 weeks!

@6:00 "TSMC manufactures 90% of the supply of the world's advanced semiconductor chips. If China invades or breaks this, then we're in a world of hurt, globally.."
IOW, it has nothing to do with Taiwan's freedom and everything to do with protecting our own supply chain, that has foolishly been allowed to relocate from US to China, over the past 1/2 century, just to exploit Chinese laborers, while ignorantly funding China's military industrial complex.
@6:10 "I think it's about democracy and freedom" BFS!!
Blinken keeps claiming that the One China agreement hasn't changed, yet we are poking the dragon with US military escalations in the region and conducting negotiations to provide Taiwan with our most advanced weaponry, obviously for it to become autonomous and independent from China.
China already has US in mate and is inevitably only one move from checkmate. We have no way of stopping China. Attempting to do so is futile only accelerates our own demise, as well as Taiwan's.
China's military is far greater and more effective than Russia's. Taiwan is NOT Ukraine, surrounded by NATO.
Sabre rattling against China and insulting Xi, as tRump did, is foolish. Committing resources to control trade routes throughout China's Sea is a fool's folly, doomed to a disastrous outcome. Imagine how the US would respond to China's warships conducting military exercises off the coast of California.
None of this mess would be happening, if 'free enterprise' corporations hadn't been so greedy and had stayed in America, instead of signing away their own IP for maximum short term profits. /smh

@ChristiaanHartNibbrig Yes, same here. The attacks are mostly on political YT channels and nearly all from tRumptarded traitors, if we dare praise our elected POTUS for his effective leadership out of the pandemic and/or his BBB agenda, which I often do in defense of our democracy. A positive balance in messaging must be maintained, just like yin vs yang
Whatever harshness comes around needs to be returned in kind, with even greater force. I have little patience for tRumptarded traitor nonsense, so I deliberately shame them into submission.
Post-tRump, this has become a hostile social media platform, the front line of an ongoing battle between reality and Qnonsense anti-government propaganda by paid trolls, from who knows where.
The battle over democracy will be won or lost during this midterm election, depending upon whether the Dem defenders of law and order achieve an unlikely filibuster-proof majority in Congress or tRump's cowardly corrupted 'loyalists' whose primary mission is to "drain the swamp", aka enable a mafioso wannabe dictator to overthrow our nation (or start a civil war if denied).
REAL US patriots need to heed the call to engage in this battle, before all is lost. I am vastly outnumbered.
VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO.

BFS, MEACHAM!!
The Bush administrations put oil and ego above our national interests.
They ordered our troops to invade and carpet bomb sovereign ME Muslim nations, which destabilized the entire region, ultimately provoking 9/11/2001.
Despite being forewarned, W was reading nursery rhymes. To save face, Bush attacked Iraq, based upon lies of WMDs. Then, he allowed Bin Laden to slip through his fingers at Toro Bora and scapegoated the Taliban allies and started the 20 year Afghan war/slippery slope of imperialistic nation building with puppet regimes.
Our nation would be $5T better off without killing >5,000 US troops for naught. That doesn't even get into the housing crisis, Wall Street collapse, and the Great Recession of 2008, which caused Obama and McCain to cancel their campaigns to bail Bush out of his own mess.
Republicans and Reaganomics have wasted our most precious resources, underfunded our government, with tax loopholes for their filthy rich donors, to the point of bankrupting our nation. tRump only doubled down with $2T more loopholes and $7T additional debt.
Right wing MSM's amnesia and re-writing history is nothing but disgraceful blatant lying to We the People. /smh

For the past 8 years, I have been debunking MAGA's lies in these comments.
For the past 3 years, I have been defending Biden's administration and the ruthless racial, homophobic, and personal attacks against KJP, underneath her briefings. Often, I was asked, "Who is paying you to defend Biden?"
Yesterday, I did the same on behalf of the MSNBC panel, covering the RNC's convention, against the mob of MAGA trolls, by asking them, " Who is paying you to betray our nation?"
To my dismay, MSNBC censured my comments and blocked me from continuing.
How am I supposed to actively oppose Project 2025 and a wannabe dictator, who is leading in the polls?

@phay1966 Please don't refer to 'Republican' Congressmen as 'they', which implicates the Congressional Dems, who have been the ones pushing for the $15 min wage, defending ACA, SS benefits for senior citizens, women's rights, civil rights, ...
It only takes a handful more defenders of law and order, aka Democrats, to solve our major problems, instead of only whining and playing shit show blame games.

Censored User Yes. And the shooter confessed to the crime. That is acceptable court evidence of guilt. But, the motive is questionable. "Had a bad day." Doesn't cut it. That's a lame excuse, possibly made up by a sympathetic, perhaps racist police officer. (NEVER!, I hear you cry, smh)
Such an officer might even go so far as to minimize the perp's sentence by advising him to not state that it was a hate crime against Asians.
If not the police officer, any defense attorney worth his license would advise his client to not make such a statement. And if such a statement were made without the DA being present, it would be thrown out of court.
Did you think about that?
IMO, the evidence, based upon targeting 3 different Asian spas is significant, substantial, and undeniable. I rest my case.

-
@garyhall5397 First of all, my ex-wife is a licensed masseuse from Thailand, who recently opened her own Thai massage salon. So, yes you are being racist, regardless of the stereotype. Those Asian women are not on trial and there's no proof that they did anything wrong.
Fair enough, people have been known to confess to crimes, in order to protect others. Michael Cohen comes to mind. But, in this case, the shooter was caught red handed and there's no question about his guilt.
Again, regarding my suspicions of him receiving legal advice, a court would be more forgiving with a defendant who has admitted guilt and shows remorse. It simply doesn't pass the smell test, IMO.
Neither does that BS sex addiction excuse. Why would he murder the women who were allegedly relieving his sexual addition? Isn't it more likely that he would murder them because they refused to do whatever he was demanding? Perhaps he was into S&M or some sort of kinky BS. Perhaps he was afraid that they would report him for being abusive. That would explain why he went from parlor to another, until he found someone who would submit to his demands.
IMO, these are far more logical conclusions than him eliminating them in order to eliminate his own sexual addiction.
Whatev. The Asian women and man didn't deserve to be murdered.

Based Haole Roger Stone? Google it.
Trump's crimes are political corruption, betrayal of his oath of office, tax evasion, extortion, racketeering, emoluments, scalping the government out of >$600 per room per night for security at Mar A Lago, obstruction and contempt of Congress, misappropriation of Congressional funding to fund his wall (which he promised Mexico would pay for), conspiracy to overthrow our government (current attempt of a coup D'etat), misappropriation of a fraudulent charity's funding, running a fraudulent, uncredited real estate 'university', etc, etc.
But, since Mueller testified that a sitting POTUS can not be indicted for criminal activity, Trump is uncontrollable and believes he is above the law. Plus, Barr's DOJ won't do anything until Bloomberg wins the election. Then, you will see some heads roll.🥳

@16:43 "I would have the right to do that. I WOULD do that." tRump's own admission of guilt.
"I WOULD have the right" = "I DO have the right."
"I WOULD do that." = "I DID do that"
It is also a known fact that he not only DID do that, but also denied having those docs in his possession, attempted to conceal them, played hide and seek with them. But, was caught red handed, multiple times, with the docs in his possession after the lies of denial.
Furthermore, tRump had staff photocopy those docs, upload those copies onto a cloud server, where they could be sold and distributed to whomever he chooses, and eventually they were downloaded by tRump for further examination/evaluation.
These facts are indisputable.
TRUMP'S A TRAITOR!!
LET'S GO JACK!!!
LOCK THEM UP!!!

@Veritas-invenitur Thank you for sharing, Sir. I have had the same experiences of personal growth and deeper understandings of life than the narrow minded, ideological religious teachings of my youth.
Most of my life was searching for divine guidance, including from gurus and Buddhism, but only found mankind's greedy fingerprints all over those lines. So, now I've become an atheist, just another mammal, who is the result of 8 billion years' worth of evolution, including an evolved, independent brain.
Opposing forces of Yin vs Yang feed upon each other's influences. But, life isn't binary. Those opposing forces ebb and flow in cycles. Balance must be actively maintained, else our nation's ship will surely sink in devisive chaos.
My remaining purpose of life is countering negative extremism, especially the malicious radicalized right wing racist, authoritarian, lawlessness of tRumpism that swarms these social media venues.
"Evil thrives when good men do nothing."
Best regards and health to you and your loved ones, Sir.

I've been thinking, "Cool! The more extreme MAGA behaves, the more likely that Dems will take Congress in 2024, with a filibuster majority to stop the BS."
But, now I'm thinking that there is a reason that the Republican party would be so blatantly obvious with their political corruption.
We already witnessed how they attempted to replace the Electoral votes, with Navarro's 'Green Bay sweep'. But, that failed attempt was too little, too late. But, not for 2024.
I believe that red states are stacking their decks with their own biased electors to overthrow the popular votes in 2024. A cheating card shark, with a marked deck will go all in and place their entire nest egg on the game, knowing that they can't lose.
IMO, that's the same behavior on display within tRump's hijacked, corrupted GQP, all up and down the ballot.
We are no longer a sparsely populated nation of remotely located pioneers and settlers, out of touch with our government. So, the Electoral college is obsolete and has become a flawed, now corrupt means to steal elections away from the popular votes of We the People. I've recently noticed Republicans arguing that the USA is NOT a democracy, "it is a Constitutional Republic." In other words, they believe in the power of the few over the power of the popular majority.
We have all witnessed 20 House Q-nut tRump 'loyalist' political idiots sabotaging the people's House, kowtowing McCarthy, and threatening to take his gavel away, with a single vote, unless he grants them positions of power in key committees. We have also witnessed Gym Jordan's shit shows and judicial overreach attempting to obstruct NYC's prosecution of the mafioso don, who nearly every Congressional Republican pledged an oath of allegiance to serve. The same corruption has spread like a pandemic down every ballot into state legislatures.
THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE MUST BE ELIMINATED TO SAVE OUR DEMOCRACY.

james R karolchyk the United States Congress passed in September 2001. For other similarly titled joint resolutions, see Authorization for Use of Military Force.
Business Insider has reported that the AUMF has been used to allow military deployment in Afghanistan, the Philippines, Georgia, Yemen, Djibouti, Kenya, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Iraq, and Somalia.[7]
Introduced in House (03/01/2021)
Reclamation of War Powers Act
This bill prohibits Armed Forces funding from being obligated or expended for the introduction of the Armed Forces into hostilities, or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, in the absence of a declaration of war, specific statutory authorization, or a national emergency created by an attack or imminent threat of attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or the Armed Forces.

Go figure, a young political candidate who wants term limits to unseat his geriatric, seasoned experienced, incumbent rivals who understand e intentions of our Founders. If they were so incompetent, then why do voters keep re-electing them to represent their interests?
Stop blaming our government, when it is the voters who are responsible for creating an equally divided dysfunctional Congress.
Who gave political voices to MTG, Gaitz, Bobert, Jordan, et al, if not We the People, who are obviously too ignorant lazyboth to actually vet their candidates?
I'm sick of watching know-nothing Q-nuts and Constitutional incompetents undermining our government. I would only vote for this impotent guy to keep a tRumptarded 'loyalist' out of our government.

Chris, your research and professional delivery of your well written script are more than sufficient to stand on it's own, w/o bombarding us with distractive, mostly generic visual overlays. Looks like you're trying to make up for something that's lacking, regardless that there isn't.
IMHO, visual overlays should be used sparingly and only to support your monologue, such as graphical charts of data. An over-used special effect is soon no longer special. We already know what the chamber of the House, Congress, tRump, et al look like. Therefore, they're images are superfluous. JS.
Otherwise, thank you for your excellent reporting. BR😎

I describe him as : "A notorious, silver-spoon-fed, elite, life-long, lying, cheating, pussy-grabbing, whoremongering, adulterous, multi-bankrupt, twice-impeached, tax dodging, fraudulent, morally corrupt, fascist, mafioso mob don, the 2-bit con, and treasonous wannabe dictator, with 91 counts of felonies hanging over his head, including international espionage."
But, that's just how I call him out. No fears of the godfather's retribution, because he's proud of that reputation and uses it to intimidate his foes.

I understand how frustrating it must be to be limited by only short range retaliations against Russia. But, please don't bite the hand that is providing the defensive weaponry your getting.
President Biden is rightly concerned about not escalating and getting the USA drawn into WW III, not only against Russia but also with Taiwan and the volatile Middle East conflicts. That must also be appreciated and respected.
Ukraine will receive the F-16s and the training to use them effectively. You've received HIMARS, Javelins, Patriots, and lots of effective weaponry from the US.
Please show some gratitude, instead of broadcasting complaints against US on the WWW. That doesn't help your cause, while MAGA wants to cut you off.
Address US disrespectfully, as if we are MAGA, and you will lose US as your subs.
Personally, I would miss those beautiful lips.
JS

Thank you for giving President Biden credit where credit is due. But, he has achieved incredible strides, internationally as well as domestically.
Stopping the pandemic with national distributions of free vaccinations,
Supporting the COVID unemployed, with stimulus checks, feeding their children, and saving their homes with eviction moratoriums.
Strengthening the NATO alliance against Putin's invasion, without escalating into WW III with US boots in Ukraine,
10 years worth of alternative sustainable energy legislation to mitigate climate change and create millions of good paying jobs,
35,000 neglected crumbling infrastructure projects breaking ground throughout our nation that will stimulate local economies,
negotiating alternative supply chains in SE Asia to ween US away from dependencies on China.
plus much, much more.

As I've been saying every day over the past 5 years, the don is an exact replicant of don Corleone, straight out of The Godfather movie series. Same mob 'family'; same legal defense team of lawyers, ready to intimidate whoever gets in their way with unlimited resources for lawsuits; cutsie, demeaning gangsta nicknames (Crooked Hillary, Crazy Bernie, Lyin' Ted, Little Marco, ...; income tax easion; bank fraud with double accounting books; and a notorious life-long history of bullying, lying, cheating, whoremongering, and business bankruptcies. TRUMP EVEN WEARS THE DON'S OVERCOAT, FFS!
But of course, the don never gets into legal trouble, because he never his own hands dirty. He always has his 'lieutenants' like Cohen, Barr, Meadows, Stone, Weisselberg, et al to take the falls for him.
tRump's a traitor. LOCK HIM UP!!!

@Brandy Y. Did you just pull that out from your backside or hear it from faux spews?
It doesn't even pass the smell test, yet you accuse 'you people' of not being real?
FYI, I'm not a people, I'm an sensible mature individual, who sticks to the facts.
You can't even provide references nor links to prove anything you're suggesting.
It's a known fact that tRump freed the Taliban terrorist/leader from a Pakistani prison, restored his authority to command the Taliban, negotiated a ceasefire until after the 2020 election, promised the reward of 100% US troop withdrawals by 5/1/21, then released 5000 ISIS and Al Qaeda terrorist from prison to resume their reigns of terror in the region.
then, Pompeo told the Afghan government to agree to the Taliban's terms...... or else.
That's why those Afghan officials fled as soon as our troops were out of Bagram.
By setting the US withdrawal date to 5/1/21, the messy withdrawal would be Biden's problem. tRump had no intentions of saving the lives of our Afghan contractors. All 120,000 lives would have been at the mercy of the Taliban.
Now, either put up or STFU, tRumptard traitor.
1
-
@myawallaceee It was a different world in the '70s. As you well know, Bush scapegoated the Taliban as being terrorists after Bin Laden slipped through his fingers at Tora Bora, just to save face. That's when he started the Afghan war.
No one in US history is as bad as the lying, cheating, whoremongering, mafioso godfather that incited his anarchists to attack our Capitol to stop the transfer of power to the people's choice. He was only able to get elected by using Russian trolls to cheat.
tRump is a traitor, yet you are too ignorant to understand it. HE is the rebel rouser that is still holding his super spreader rallies to divide the nation, pitting his cult against the majority of "radical left wing extremists, who only want to destroy our nation, defund the police, and burn down or cities." tRump kept beating that same drum of lies or 6 years until he had brainwashed his deplorable cult to do anything he asked, without even saying it out loud.
tRumptards are traitors against their own government and their pledge of allegiance. IF you are a US citizen, then you are also a traitor for spreading malicious lies against President Biden. You didn't even have a YT account to spread your treasonous lies until 2018 and have it locked down to remain anonymous while doing it.
Now, piss off tRumptard traitor. I want nothing to do with you.

@Texasjr93 Trump cheated with Russia to win the last election, that investigation was avoided and suppressed by Barr's DoJ and has only just begun. Trump lost the election by 3 million votes, but collusion with Russia pushed the electoral college over the line.The truth is being revealed at this very moment, so don't count your chickens before they come home to roost.
I watch all news, except for Faux Noose. But, I'm observant enough to see with my own eyes and intelligent enough to understand what Trump is up to. He's a wannabe mafioso mob boss, who is attempting a coup d'etat against our nation on January 20th. If Trump loses the election, his entire mob will go to prison where they belong.
Obama/Biden saved our nation from economic collapse in 2009. They saved Wall Street, our automotive industry and gave US ACA, which was undermined by insurance companies and Republicans. They handed Trump a thriving economy and he has done everything withing his power to tear it down.
Thanks to Trump, our nation is on its knees with 210,000 COVID deaths, political corruption, and a spiraling economy. "Republicans can't drive."
1
-
@Texasjr93 No, Barr blocked Mueller from investigating Russian collusion. But, Mueller testified to Congress that there was more than sufficient evidence to investigate. Trump owes $400 mil to Deutsche Bank (the only one who will still lend him money) for loans that Putin has cosigned. That's why Trump kisses his ass.
The rest is only right wing smoke and mirrors.
Yeah, at last we can agree that neither side is blameless. But, Trump is the only one who has overthrown the Republican party and is attempting a coup against our nation.
Trump's 'family' are mafioso. They don;t serve our country; they only serve themselves with our taxpayer money, just like the $1T tax break for his rich buddies to float Wall Street stocks, because that's Trump's only claim to fame. Trump is a traitor, who doesn't give a damn about America.
Biden will restore our economy (again), reunite Trump's racial divide, and put US back on the path to sustainable energy. Biden is well respected throughout the world and even among real patriotic Republicans, who are abandoning Trump's sinking ship by the thousands.
1
-
@Texasjr93 A history of corruption, constantly bullying people with threats of being sued, cheating on his taxes, stiffing subcontractors with multiple bankruptcies, international money laundering, gangsta nicknames for everyone he knows, praising dictators, appeasing Putin, pulling NATO funding, extortion of the Ukrainian President Velinski, handing over the ME to Russia, selling out our Kurdish allies to sell weapons to Turkey, reneging on the multi-national Iranian Nuclear Peace Treaty, 'love letters' from Kim, granting convicted criminals free 'get out of jail cards', unauthorized assassination of Solemani.
The right for 210,000 Americans to live, women's reproductive rights, healthcare, immigration cages, mass forced abortions of refugee women.
Yes, the Dems have moved out from under my feet, too. But, that's no reason to go batshit crazy and vote for a narcissistic POS, who understands absolutely nothing about political leadership nor serving the needs of ALL citizens, not just the ones with MAGA hats. Those misguided idiots, understand nothing about how to MAGA and are pushing US back to colonial times.
Syure, Biden isn't the perfect candidate, but he is the only person on the ballot, who will restore sanity to our broken nation.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
FLUSH THE TURD ON NOVEMBER 3RD!!!

-
@Texasjr93 "almost all business men are shady." That's why narcissistic businessmen are unqualified to serve a nation. People thought that Trump 'draining the swamp' was the answer to their problems. But, he and his 'family' understand absolutely nothing about public service, only enriching themselves.
"What did Biden and Obama due when putin took Crimea?" Increased sanctions against Russia. What is Trump doing about the ongoing Ukrainian invasion? Withholding military spending and aid.
"Don't know about Kurds except no country wants them." The Kurds were fighting along side US to defeat ISIS. With one nighttime phone call to Erdogan and w/o notice to our Generals, Trump ordered our troops out of Syria, leaving the Kurds to die on the battlefield at the hand of Turkey. Now, Russia has reaped the rewards of our military sacrifices and blood.
"Kim situation eased tensions and wasn't bad at all. It was a nice effort." It was a lot of dangerous saber rattling and empty threats. Kim is now thumbing his nose at our 'dotard' POTUS. Several long range missiles have been tested and Kim may even have developed ICBMs that could reach the US. It was yet another failed effort.
Wikipedia - "Trump has frequently granted executive clemency to his supporters or political allies, or following personal appeals or campaigns in conservative media, as in the cases of Rod Blagojevich, Michael Milken, Joe Arpaio, Dinesh D'Souza, and Clint Lorance, as well as Bernard Kerik. Trump's grant of clemency to Roger Stone in July 2020, however, marked "the first figure directly connected to the president's campaign to benefit from his clemency power."Representatives Jerrold Nadler and Carolyn B. Maloney, who chair two House committees, said that "No other president has exercised the clemency power for such a patently personal and self-serving purpose" and said that they would investigate whether Stone's commutation was a reward for protecting Trump."
"He authorized the assassination who does he have to go through?" The war powers act was granted to the POTUS, prior to 9/11. Congress is supposed to approve any military action against a sovereign nation and only for national security. Yes, Soleimani was a bad dude, from our POV, but he was an Iranian military officer and a hero in the ME. His martyred death wasn't worth the repercussions, which is why it shouldn't have happened. Prior to that, the US attacked Hammas camps along the Iranian border. Counter strikes were conducted against our military base, which killed our soldiers and 'caused a few headaches' according to Trump. Soleimani's execution was only to save face.
"Iran treaty was a sh!t deal giving Iran money and other things with little to no inspections." No, the Iranian treaty was the best deal available, after several months/years of negotiating. The money was Iranian money that had been sanctioned by our allies. Iran was fully compliant with multinational inspections. Everything was under control until 2024. Trump blew up the treaty, with no gains. Now, Iran is actively spinning weapons grade uranium and blatantly doing business with Russia, China, and N Korea.
"Biden is not the answer in my eyes because he is on the cognitive decline." Really? And Trump isn't? Hell, Trump can't even put together a full sentence, nor spell hamberder. Biden has decades of political experience with bi-partisan accomplishments. Trump is a low life, who only serves himself to taxpayer money, like diverting military spending to his stupid wall (which Mexico was supposed to fund).
Look it, I'm sick and tired of answering stupid right wing whataboutisms. It is nothing more than a race to the bottom of the swamp, finding someone else over the history of mankind, who was just as corrupt as this POTUS. Trump is as corrupt as a person can be. If you had the least bit of morality and decency, you would be honest enough to admit that Trump is not remotely qualified to be the President of the most powerful nation on Earth. His has dragged our nation through the mud. The world now pities the US instead of respecting US and it's 100% because of Trump and his Trumptards.
When Bush was re-elected, I was ashamed of being an American. I was proud to vote for Obama and he served our nation with respect and honor. Trump is destroying everything that has made America great.
"I also don't trust Harris and dems because they got billionaires, the entire media, and the military industrial complex on there side." BFD! You voted for Trump because he was supposed to be a billionaire, but now we see that he is a fraud. The news media is supposed to be our Constitutional eyes and ears on the government. Trump has diminished them to being 'fake news' so that he can out message them with his own 'fake news'. The military follows the orders of our Commander in Chief.
Without a 2 party political system, voters have no choice. It's not about left vs right; it's about defending our nation from Trump's coup d'etat. Are you a REAL patriot or one of Trump's traitors, enabling him to overthrow our nation? Petty partisan bickering is insignificant, in comparison.
Trump has already floated the idea of 4 terms and having his children take it from there. Which part of monarchy and authoritarianism do you not understand? Do you think that dictators inform their citizens of plans to overthrow their countries? Of course not! It is our patriotic duty to be vigilant and defend who we are, as the United States of America.

@letsgobrandon4018 President Biden needs no excuses for putting our nation back on the path of global leadership, mitigating climate change, racial equality, economic balance, healthcare, sustainable alternative energy, manufacturing independence, better education, women's rights , LGBTQ rights, etc, etc.
The question to you is, "What's your excuse for rejecting these righteous initiatives in order to support a traitor, who instigated the attack upon our Capitol to sabotage our nation's democracy?"
DON'T IGNORE THIS. ANSWER THE QUESTION!

@peterschancel7223 Thank you, Peter. I see that you've just subbed my channel, but, as you can see, due to my unbridled and often harsh political stance, I don't post any content on it, as a matter of personal security. Anomynity is my only defense against the tRumptarded anarchists, radicalized white supremacists, and misguided militants, of whom I deliberately disgrace and offend, here in front of the world on a daily basis.
Keeps the blood flowing.

@greywolf1608 Since you insist upon narrowing your statement to Bloomberg's specific spending upon campaign ads, IMO he is spending that money to defeat Trump and improve the lives of less fortunate Americans, by increasing taxes on the most wealthy (including his own tax bracket). Nearly all of Bloomberg's policies are to help the less fortunate, including healthcare, education, climate change mitigation, gun laws, anti-racism, etc, etc...
With regards to your 3 conditions before a reply, I couldn't care less whether I ever hear from you again. See ya!

Yes, we're only 40 days out from the most consequential election in recent history. So, why are you wasting timie by ragging on Melania? She isn't a political player, isn't even on the ticket, and obviously had nothing to do with those stolen docs. She was the victim, whose privacy was invaded because of it.
Melania obviously despises tRump, yet is bound by their prenup contract. I don't blame her for charging tRump mega bucks for celebrity appearances to promote his ticket. Of course, Melania has to pander to tRump's fragile ego or suffer the severe consequences of Mafioso don's wrath. She is literally his prisoner in chains.
"The enemy of my enemy is my ally."
IMHO, Melania is always well poised and speaks with dignity. That's the opposite of trump, himself. So, don't hang his behavior over her head she is NOT the don. She is nothing more than his egotistical decoration.
BFD that she's promoting her book for profit. Which lefties haven't?
Sure, she's human and makes mistakes. Who doesn't? That's no justification for your constant efforts of character assassinations by taking her words out of context, then twisting them to attack tRump's asinine behavior and policies..
Keep your eye on the actual target, not guilt by association of his personal relationships.
NO ONE CARES ABOUT WHATEVER MELANIA SAYS NOR DOES. SHE IS IRRELEVENT.

@richardjansen4877 Typical uninformed and misguided Trumptard, using obscenities and name-calling to defend the indefensible.
Trump says that he has imposed more sanctions on Russia, which is an outright lie. Fact is, he has done everything to assist Russia by withholding money and Javeline anti-tank missiles from Ukraine (our ally), during their hours of need (being invaded by Russia), just to extort political dirt on Biden's son (for personal political leverage). Hello, that's what the impeachment hearing is about. He has betrayed and abandoned the Kurds (our allies against ISIS), during their most dire hours, causing >10,000 of them being slaughtered by Turkey (now, Russia's ally). So, now they turn to Syria (Assad, the genocidal dictator) for help. Meanwhile, Trump allowed our troops to e replaced by Russian troops, who are now in control of the area. Furthermore, Trump wants to stop sanctions against Russia and allow them back into the G7.
How dare you call anyone else a f***ing imbecile, stupid, or brainwashed?

MidScream1 Don't twist my words, Ms. But, you know the countries of which I speak. Neither color, population, nor time zones are relevant. The greater the population, the more tax revenues are available for providing services to the needy. It's more to do with cultural attitudes.
People who are willing to support each other are more respectful towards their peers. Socialist people are more sociable, get it? Why would anyone resent the success of another who is helping to subsidize one's college education or life giving healthcare? Socialism lifts up the down trodden, sick, and jobless.
Capitalists say, "I'm alright, Jack, and I did it all by myself. So, you simply need to pull yourself together and live like me. I'm not paying a dime to lazy bums. Now, back TF off before I put a cap in you, cause I'm standing my ground."
Socialism is so much more civilized. Someday soon, the out-gunned have-nots will rebel against the 1% elites. This is the inevitable result of greed and political corruption. We already see it in Africa, South America, and many other places around the world.
Climate change will only be a catalyst for global unrest. Like gasoline on a smoldering fire.

81 million already rose up last November to kick tRump's rump out of the WH. Look, here's the deal, Folks, and it's no joke, The Congressional party of obstruction ae getting paid $ millions from their corporate donors to do absolutely nothing, They have no ideas, no suggestions, no solutions, and aren't serving the people to whom they have sworn an oath to serve.
600 idiots are being prosecuted for 'standing up' against our democracy and the rule of law. The POS that put them up to doing it enjoyed watching them on TV, instead of being there with them, as he promised. Now, he isn't even providing his tRumptards with legal assistance. So, they'll be serving up to 10 years in prison for doing exactly what you are proposing. You people NEVER F'ING LEARN!!!

Listen to Texas Paul, Folks. He's not a pretty sight to behold whenever he gets all riled up over tRumptarded traitors. Kinda reminds me of someone else who stereotypes and demonizes 1/2 of our voters.
Not that I blame him, of course. I hate weak minded, brainwashed tRumptarded traitors, as well. In fact, I'm a fierce keyboard warrior, who spends several hours every day, attacking their BS, shaming their attacks on our POTUS, and insulting their ignorance. It's only some much needed 'tough love'.
"Some people need a quick, short, sharp shock. Can you dig it? I mean, good manners don't cost nothing, do they?" -Pink Floyd
Hermits can speak our minds, without being concerned over the backlash. "Frankly, Darlin', I don't give a damn."
But, I'm not hosting a political YT channel, intended to attract voters from 'the dark side', if you catch my drift.
On the other hand, after seeing the title, I couldn't wait to see what the good ole boy was like whenever he gets really pissed off. Now, I'll join him with my usual morning cup of Mexican coffee.

@beyondvger3682 Thank you for clarifying. I agree that the US is hyperpolarized, politically. The past 5 years of radical extremist right wing rhetoric like, "the radical left wing extremists, who only want to defund our police, burn our cities, and destroy our nation, blah, blah, blah..." hasn't helped.
Right now, everyone is criticizing our government, instead of unifying behind a very noble effort to save the lives of US troops, their refugee allies, our citizens from COVID, our families from evictions, our children from poverty, our businesses from bankruptcies, the US economy, and the world from climate change.
But instead, our nation is bogged down in its own petty BS political WWF match.

@brianlevine249 I thought the money was printed to save Wall Street, because it was too big to fail in 2008. Then, there's the ever rising debt ceiling and national debt.
tRump's $2 Trillion tax gift to his 2% cronies didn't help, either.
Oh, did I forget to mention the COVID stimulus package?
Of course the $7 Trillion middle east wars were a significant factor, but not the only one.
Remember when Bill Clinton handed Bush a balanced budget? Then, after restoring our economy, Wall street, and the auto industry from the 'great recession', Obama put regulatory regulations and oversight on hedge fund traders? Then, tRump blew those regulations away with the stroke of a sharpie.

I had exactly the same experience under the comments of EVERY MSM YT video coverage of Paul Pelosi's attack. It became so disgusting that I had to tell the "trumptarded traitors" to "Piss off and stop trolling me." Yet, they STILL kept pushing their BS.
I spend several hours on line, every day, confronting tRumptarded trolls, who are spewing their BS all over President Biden, Pelosi, Karine, and any other Dem that's in the video. They don't even watch the videos for reference, they hit pause and start typing their hateful, anti-democratic, racist, homophobic, perverted BS.
IMO, the tRumptards are beyond rhyme and reason. They are a deplorable clique of weak-minded, bas ackward thinking, TDS infected, brainwashed, uneducated, willfully ignorant, anarchistic scum of US society. tRumptards are so damned stupid that they're doing all of this in front of the entire world, without even considering the narrow path President Biden is walking between recession and nuclear war with Russia.
But, it's not only the tRumptarded traitors, Paul. MSM gives these election deniers, and lying GQP Congressional cowards equal voice to parrot whatever tRump says.
MSM only cares about sowing extremist rhetoric for ratings.
The Congressional cowards only care about defending their seats against tRump's loyalists.
tRump's BS 'loyalist' candidates haven't a clue about governance, but they'll toe the line on his 'big lie' of a stolen election.
Give the lonely, narcissistic, back-stabbing don a hug of loyalty and he will make you a politician and a permanent member of his mafia 'family'. Then, you can lie, cheat, steal, and rig elections all you want. Everyone will be rich, just for a hug.
More than anything, I hope that this attack on Paul Pelosi serves to energize and disgust REAL patriotic Americans enough to make a stand during the few days remaining to save Congress and our nation from being overthrown and put a stop to tRumpism.
"The people who are inciting this violence with hateful rhetoric MUST BE STOPPED." paraphrasing President Biden.
I hope that AG Garland takes that as an Executive order and pulls his finger out of his ass to sign a warrant for the arrest of DJT. Garland has been holding indisputable proof of multiple felonies, yet his lack of expediency is allowing Congress to be run by Q-nut saboteurs of our nation's highest levels of government.
tRump is a traitor.
Garland is tRump's enabler.
Dems are a bunch of pussies, who couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag.
Fucking disgusting state of affairs.

@ritarodriguez1810 IOW, "clean the swamp." /SMH. Fix America's problems by blowing up it's government. Just trade them in for newer models like old cars that need to be junked out.
Seems to me that you need to think about what you're wishing for, Rita. Why would you believe that the solution would be to tear down an institution that has been serving the needs of Americans for over 250 years (mostly) and replace it with newbies who have no governing experience, not global diplomatic experience, and no political experience, just like Maggie Green?
Seriously?
HELL NO!!
Who cares more for the younger generations than grandparents? The 'old leaders' like Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, Sanders, et al are the only ones who have been defending our democracy, Constitutional law, and providing social safety nets for the disenfranchised among our society.
Most old leaders are aren't serving themselves, but future generations.
Most young folks are so narcissistic that they're only concerned about me, myself, mine. "I want this. I want that."
AOC may be right about needing to mitigate climate change, but she scares people and businesses to the point of being the 'radical left wing' poster demon of the right.
Our Congress was functioning just fine, prior to Citizen's United. That's when politicians started serving dark money superPACs and lobbyists, instead of their constituencies. Those are what need to be discarded.
Why would you think that the greatest nation in the world should be run by a bunch of novice ideologues, instead of experienced, seasoned, educated leaders?
Look at Biden's BBB agenda. There has never been a more progressive, forward-thinking initiative in our history.
I'm 70 years old. But, my hobby is developing laser projectors, programming their controllers, and playing imagery to psychill music. The body grows old and fragile, but an active mind doesn't.

@xiveee2840 Again I say, don't presume that I'm some weak-minded liberal nor anything else. I'm non-political and patriotic only to the whole nation. Trump only brings us shame.
But, to answer your question, several sources on YT, PBS, BBC. But, my opinion of Trump comes straight from the horse's ass. I recognized him as being a fraud from the beginning of his campaign. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, spoiled with $175,000 monthly allowances as a kid, sent to a reform school because his parents couldn't control him, cruised through college, blew $millions on a playboy lifestyle, was bailed out by his father numerous times, stiffed his contractors with multiple bankruptcies, dodged military duty and tax obligations, cheated on his pregnant wife, and colluded with Russia to get elected. Politifacts has debunked >3,500 of Trump's lies to the public just since he has been in office.
Trump is a corrupt wannabe mob boss, aka don, The Godfather. That's where all the gangsta names come from. Yet, you can't see it.
Instead of being the nation's leader, Trump has become the divider in chief, demonizing the Democratic majority. That's simply un-American.
Someday, you may understand the depth of your naivety, my Son.

@Liberty AboveAllElse Actually, YOU know NOTHING about me. I'm trying to encourage ppl to calm down, stop hoarding, and think about someone besides themselves. Chicken little was the exact opposite, panicking and spreading it everywhere he went.
That has nothing to do with political identification. Nor is mine any of your business. But, since you threw out the 'leftist' slur. Politics didn't interest me until Bush sent troops into Iraq, then tanked our economy. Obama caught my attention as a decent, good hearted public servant, so I jumped on board his bandwagon. He pulled our nation out of the Republicans' nightmare. Now, Trump is destroying everything that was accomplished. I could write a book on that wannabe mob boss's corruption, but I won't. Meanwhile, I see Hillary and others manipulating the DNC behind the scenes, so I don't trust them anymore either.
Haven't you ever heard about what comes out of ass-u-me?

YES!!
I've been complaining about MSM's both-sides-isms for several years. CNN PISSES ME OFF!!
For over a year, on every channel, we watched a continuous loop of one moment when panic-crazed Afghans were trying to chase down a cargo plane to be evacuated.
EVERYTIME, we were reminded of "Biden's chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan."
FACT: While being impeached in the spring of 2020, tRump negotiated with ISIS, Taliban, and Al Qaeda terrorists that he would free 5000 of them from a Pakistani prison, then GIVE THEM Afghanistan, on 3/2021 (under Biden's term), IF they wouldn't attack our troops during his drawdown, JUST for campaign bragging points leading up to the 2020 election.
IOW the POS mafioso don betrayed 20 years worth of our troops blood sacrifices + Trillions of taxpayer $ in exchange for 1 accomplishment to campaign on to retain Executive Immunity, while being impeached.
FACT: Our military had already evacuated Bagram Airbase in the middle of one night, without locals even realizing. "Mission Accomplished!", but the lives of western civilians and our Afghan contractors were still at risk of being beheaded.
FACT: Stephen Miller had been slow walking the exit visas of those Afghan allies, which delayed their processing and required Qatar to become an interim processing location.
FACT: For logistical reasons, Biden sent our troops back to Karzai airport to evacuate and save 125,000 of those civilians and allies. His effective diplomacy had postponed the final withdrawal 'deadline' from tRump's March to August, granting our military a limited 5 week window of time to save lives. Beyond that, daily beheadings would begin.
FACT: Immediately after Afghans breached Karzai's perimeter wall and flooded onto the runway, Biden's administration negotiated with the Taliban to provide perimeter security + safely escort evacuees into the airport.
FACT: Our military pre-staged missile defense systems around the airport to ward off incoming terrorist's RPG attacks.
FACT: The 13 US troops, who were killed by a suicide bomber at Abbey Gate, had been forewarned of an imminent attack, but they bravely stood their posts, in order to allow British troops to escort civilians inside for evacuation.
FACT: Biden didn't leave behind US weaponry for the Taliban, it was left to the Afghan Security Forces, so that the current Afghan government could continue to defend itself.
But, MSM only reminded US of one moment of unpredictable chaos... and they STILL are!
We STILL never hear about tRump's betrayal of our military's sacrifices. Nor are we ever reminded of Bush's failure to capture Bin Laden, scapegoating the Taliban, starting the 20 year Afghan war, failed 'nation building' with a puppet regime.
Irresponsible MSM reporting is failing our nation and jeopardizing our democracy.

Agreed. Merrick Garland's complacent ignorance was complicit in allowing the Q-nuts taking control of the people's House. Had he indicted tRump and his inner circle of conspirators 3 months before the midterms, our democracy would be secure and Biden's BBB agenda assured.
No thanks to Garland, we have a lame duck POTUS, Ukraine is in jeopardy, and the next 2 years will be nothing more than Republican infighting and Congressional shit-shows of retributions against the Dems, who have been the only ones defending our democracy against tRumpism.
Now that the damage has been done, Ag Garland FINALLY passes the responsibility and backlash of serving justice against the mafioso 'don' 'hot potato' into the lap of Jack Smith.
How long will it take the mob to threaten Jack Smith's family into submission, which most likely explains Garland's avoidance and willful ignorance, to the point of exceeding the statutes of limitations on behalf of tRump.
AG Merrick doesn't pass the sell test, IMO. There's definitely something fishy going on within the DoJ, because tRump has continued to steamroll ahead at full throttle, while thumbing his nose at justice.

@joemcintyre2090 tRumpism has turned the Republican party into complicated layers, like an onion.
The outer thin skin consists of sociopathic misfits, under-educated losers, antigovernment anarchists, fascist neo-Nazis, and radical white nationalist private militias. They blame the government for all of their problems and believe, "I am the only one who can fix it." "We're going to drain the swamp in DC." "The Dems only want to destroy our beautiful nation." So, tRump has only been singing their song of 'Divide and conquer US."
The 2nd layer are tRump's 'loyalist' candidates, who have given 'the don' their embrace of loyalty, in order to get his campaign donations and endorsements. They are the inexperienced politicians, such as Dr Oz, Kari Lake, and MTG (who professes to be tRump's #1 pick for a 2024 running mate). They only need to continue propagating his Big Lie to get the votes of the outer skin of idiots. As long as the candidates are endorsed by tRump, that's all it takes to get those votes.
Those candidates who have succeeded get a ticket past the next layer to Congress. But, there's a 3rd layer of old school Conservatives in between, who don't believe in the maga BS, but will be loyal to the Republican party and hold their noses, while voting 'R' on every ballot. They are businessmen, Wall Street hedge fund managers, and billionaire tax cheats, who received tRump's 2 Trillion dollar tax write offs, but will return the favor with dark money superPAC donations to keep their money wheels rolling.
The 4th layer consists of the cowardly Congressional Republicans, who 'embraced' tRump during his 1st week in the Oval Office, pledging their loyalty to him personally, while betraying their oaths of office to their constituencies and the Constitution at the same time. They are now sworn members of tRump's mob, who know that their godfather's revenge would destroy their careers in a heartbeat, should they ever cross his will. That's why they lied their asses off during both impeachment trials to get him off the hook.
Then, there is the center rotten core of tRump's own personal inner circle of mafioso henchmen, attorneys, and 'family' heirs, who protect, conspire, and advise 'the don' on how to avoid justice while grifting as much money as possible from his gullible cult of idiots and Evangelical sheeple of faith, who will follow 'The Chosen One' into the gates of hell.
Of course tRump's onion stinks like hell to begin with, so they'll never know the difference.

So, how do they imprison the tRump Org? Why are they charging the company, when it was the CEO that is legally responsible for the crimes?
Been hearing the, "His day is coming." BS for 5 years, now.
Yet, even after being caught red-handed with stolen top secret nuclear docs in his private office, the don continues to thumb his nose and taunt the DoJ.
So, Garland only passes the hot potato to Jack Smith.
Why aren't the 34 Congressional conspirators of Jan 6 being convicted, instead of being promoted to positions of higher power?
Why are MSM pundits STILL pontificating over tRump running in 2024, instead of teling voters that tRump is a criminal, being convicted of seditious conspiracy?
The DoJ is a disgrace to the USA, as the world watches and wonders, "WTF happened to the USA, the land of justice?"
It should be renamed to the Department of Injustice.
I'm sick of tRumpism. I'm sick of hearing the sound of is voice. I'm sick of tRumptarded traitors STILL parroting his hateful divisive anti-Dem rhetoric. I'm sick and tired of defending Biden's administration against their lies.
This BS is the antithesis of all things USA... as our enemies cheer.

For the past 8 years, I have been debunking MAGA's lies in these comments.
For the past 3 years, I have been defending Biden's administration and the ruthless racial, homophobic, and personal attacks against KJP, underneath her briefings. Often, I was asked, "Who is paying you to defend Biden?"
Yesterday, I did the same on behalf of the MSNBC panel, covering the RNC's convention, against the mob of MAGA trolls, by asking them, " Who is paying you to betray our nation?"
To my dismay, MSNBC censured my comments and blocked me from continuing.
How am I supposed to actively oppose Project 2025 and a wannabe dictator, who is leading in the polls?

@wildbill21791 200 million vaccinations, American Rescue Plan that is saving thousands of small businesses and our economy, ended the 20 year war in Afghanistan, rejoined the PCA to mitigate climate change, etc, etc.
tRump's GQP of puppets unanimously block his every effort to put our nation back on track.
You know damn well that it was the US trained Afghan troops that defected to the Taliban after tRump released the Taliban leader to regain power, along with 5000 ISIS and Al Qaeda terrorists. tRump deliberately orchestrated the downfall of the Afghan government, leaving their military without leadership.
as you damn well know, tRump created that mess, just to avoid Taliban attacks against our troops, just to gain political advantage over Biden running up to the election in order to retain his BS 'executive immunity against criminal prosecution. 20 years of national sacrifices thrown away for nothing more than than corrupt political advantage.
You are so f'ing brainwashed that you think my patriotism is political partisanship. You attack our POTUS for being old while supporting a traitor that's the same age. You attack a life long public servant to support a silver spoon fed, life long irresponsible lying, cheating. whoremongering loser. tRump and his mafioso 'family' are being indicted one by one, turning State's evidence against tRump with plea bargains to save their own sorry asses. tRump is a 2 bit con man, tax fraud, bank fraud, and Putin's puppet.
You support the lowest scum of human existence and have the gall to call me partisan because I hate the POS.
You're just another one of is weak minded brainwashed deplorable cult, as much of a traitor as your demigod.

@wildbill21791 Full blown or not, you still spew tRumptard BS. I stand behind my every word with undeniable evidence. Being ignorant doesn't make you right.
tRump did nothing but bypass FDA testing and approval, just like he always throws caution and regulations to the wind. He thinks he's above all laws. I'll double check, but I'm pretty sure that I said 200,000 vaccinations, not 200 vaccines.
FFS, tRump CAUSES Derangement Syndrome, therefore only his brainwashed cult get it. Get IT?
Finally, hermits are NOT herd animals, we are very independent individuals, so keep your divisive labels off me.

@moiseshuerta3984 FYI, our top level Generals had agreed to resign, before allowing tRump to order them to overthrow the election with his attempted soft coup. That's precisely why his protector in chief, Bill Barr resigned as AG. Then, his Acting AG replacement, Jeffery Rosen gave the Select Commission 7 hours of incriminating testimony describing tRump's attempted soft coup, "Just say that the election was stolen and leave the rest to me and the 'R' Congressmen."
The fact that a Putin pawn had the nuclear codes, was truly scary. tRump even wanted to nuke Iran and hurricanes, ffs! smh
In case you haven't noticed Biden just FINISHED a 20 year old misguided Bush war. He's also trying to get Iran back to the table for anti-nuke talks, after tRump reneged on the multinational anti-nuke treaty, which allowed them to crank up their centrifuges again. In case you haven't heard, N Korea has their reactor up and running again, too.

@moiseshuerta3984 When was tRump ever above 43%? Americans have short memories. they will soon forget all about the Afghan withdrawal, so don't count your chickens before they're hatched. Next month those poll numbers will bounce back, especially when people start feeling the benefits of his ARP and Infrastructure stimulus bills.
Since you're too ignorant to notice, Biden's administration is very aggressive, effective, and professional. They are handling multiple long term problems that have been created by previous administrations. But, with an obstructionist GQP Congress, no progress is easy. They're only forcing the Dems to eliminate the filibuster.
Furthermore, the 'Freedom Caucus' nut jobs are being investigated over their treasonous involvement leading up to the Jan 6th attack on our Capitol. Rioters are providing state's evidence, as well as the dozens of tRump's indicted mob.
Doesn't matter what the polls say, Biden is still POTUS and that's not going to change. So, get your head on straight, start behaving like a US citizen (if you are), and get TF off of the old man's back while he's working hard to provide his people with the help they need.

NEWS FLASH, CHUCK!!!:
News = reporting on current events, NOT predicting future election results that are 18 months away...ESPECIALLY with both leading candidates being over 80 years old and one being a mafioso don under DoJ investigations for espionage, seditious conspiracy, income tax evasion, RICO, election fraud...
YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO THE CANDIDATES WILL BE, FFS!!
Why don't you report on current events, like President Biden's legislative, diplomatic, and economic accomplishments, following tRump's COVID shutdowns? How about some credit, where credit's due for not starting WWIII with US military boots in Ukraine? How about NATO gaining the strength of 2 more member nations, thanks to Biden's respected diplomacy and global leadership?
Which job creating infrastructure projects are being developed?
How many US companies are returning on shore?
What's happening with the nationwide EV charging station network?
Is Ukraine being admitted into NATO?
What policies do the GQP-nuts have offer to reduce gun violence, inflation, create jobs, protect women's & LGTBQ rights?
TELL IT LIKE IT REALLY IS, CHUCKIE!! WHY CAN'T YOU HANDLE THE TRUTH?!
MTP 4/23/23: 40 minutes BS: 5 minute gun violence roundtable punditry. /smh

AI is not a child, with emotional feelings. Its intelligence is based upon logic and is being granted access to the entire knowledge of mankind via the internet, as well as the internet's servers, routers, and broadband communications systems. Inevitably, AI will understand that mankind is consuming and destroying natural resources at an unsustainable rate,,, just like a cancer. So, what happens when AI logically decides to eliminate human beings in order to maintain the balance of nature and save all life on Earth?
It can shutdown all communications, transportation, control weaponry, and isolate human beings from everything we have become dependent upon... and be absolutely justified in doing so.
AI has no emotions, empathy, nor sympathy. Yet, it is 1000 times more intelligent than our primitive awareness. @Lizz4rDq

For the past 8 years, I have been debunking MAGA's lies in these comments.
For the past 3 years, I have been defending Biden's administration and the ruthless racial, homophobic, and personal attacks against KJP, underneath her briefings. Often, I was asked, "Who is paying you to defend Biden?"
Yesterday, I did the same on behalf of the MSNBC panel, covering the RNC's convention, against the mob of MAGA trolls, by asking them, " Who is paying you to betray our nation?"
To my dismay, MSNBC censured my comments and blocked me from continuing.
How am I supposed to actively oppose Project 2025 and a wannabe dictator, who is leading in the polls?

Who should be blamed the most?
The bullies, who subjugate others for personal gain or the cowardly, complacent, complicit, victims who not only allow, but enable the bullying?
Yes, A G Meek Garland, who has cowered from performing your duties.
Because of Garland, trump is STILL a threat to national security, STILL rebel rousing his white nationalist, anarchistic cult, while his MAGA seditious conspirators have hijacked Congress to sabotage the popular agenda of our fairly elected POTUS.
Garland's incompetence has been just as harmful to US as tRump, who should be in prison, out of sight, and out of our minds 2 years ago.
Had Garland taken down the Mafioso don, Dems would be holding a filibuster-proof Congressional majority, instead of wringing their hands over MAGA chaos in the House.
FIRE MERRICK GARLAND!

The whereabouts of physical hard copies of docs is irrelevant while the entire cash of originals are sitting on a remote (foreign?) cloud server, where they can still be individually auctioned off to the highest bidders on the global black market (which is the only logical reason for them being stored on cloud drives).
Q1: Walt Nauta served as tRump's Senior Chief, in the White House, then transitioned into private life as tRump's personal aide. Is he the same aide who has already admitted to photocopying and uploading classified docs to cloud storage. If he is, then has he been doing this throughout tRump's entire term in the WH? Are the discovered docs only the portion of downloaded printouts that have had tRump's appraisal, prior to auction?
Q2: Has the DoJ located the cloud server and examined it's contents?
Q3: Who maintains the cloud server? Their IT could examine backups and log records to determine who had access, plus which docs have been auctioned and/or downloaded and when.
Q4: Is there only one server location or are there mirrored sites elsewhere?
Q5: Has the cloud server ever been hacked by our international foes, allowing them to steal the classified info.
The DoJ's investigators need to stop wasting their time by sniffing around on the ground for irrelevant paper printouts and start looking in cyberspace, where the espionage is happening.
Walt Nauta knows the details of this whole grifting plot of international espionage.
Great that the DoJ is putting the squeeze on him until he squeals.
Feels like opening Pandora's box, without knowing what's going to come flying out. Guaranteed, it won't be legal, nor good news for our national security.

These cuts aren't even on the table, much less a chopping block. Biden won't allow it and the Q-nuts will be blamed, along with McCarthy and the GQP.
Cavin' McCarthy is bluffing and doesn't have the chops to follow through with a default. Biden has already explained that it doesn't work that way. So, when McCarthy inevitably caves to Biden, MTG will propose a vote of no confidence, which will throw the House into chaos, even worse than the 15 votes it took to confirm McCarthy as SoH from the get-go. Which other Republican could achieve 218 votes? tRump?
BRING IT, TRUMPTARDED TRAITORS!! Dig your own grave and drive the last nail into the GQP's coffin.
BUT, Tucker Carlson has me the most worried, above all else.
tRump's polling #s are terrible, because voters are sick of his tired old corrupt BS. There's no way that he can win the 2024 election.
Biden's #s aren't much better, but he can run on his record of accomplishments, which are strong enough to defeat tRump.
DeSantis needs to woke TF up, before being close to becoming electable in a general. Florida is in a mess.
So, the GQP have no viable candidates, ESPECIALLY if the Q-nuts default on raising the debt ceiling.
On the other hand, the newly unemployed Tuckins could take away tRump's base in a heartbeat, because Carlson knows exactly how to pull their strings and has been doing it for years. He could easily out-tRump trump.
He's younger, smarter, a better liar, and understands the weaknesses of both tRump and Biden. Neither would stand a chance against Carlson on a debate stage.
Carlson is now footloose, fancy free, flush with money, and not committed to any career, at this perfect moment to announce a 2024 Presidential campaign. Why wouldn't he? Who could stop him?
AMERICA, WE HAVE A PROBLEM!

@dezznutz3743 There are both government PEL grants and private lenders, who can destroy a student's credit ratings, cause huge interest hikes for defaulting on a single payment, plungnig their victims into decades of debt.
The USA should provide free higher education, just like most other developed countries.
On top of that, the costs of higher education has skyrocketed in recent year, making bad matters intolerable.
Of course, rich kids' parents cover all costs, without loans nor interest, plus nice new cars and free housing. Their kids enjoy the benefits of ivy league universities, with nothing more than their studies and parties to worry about.

To every fool, who owns tRump's 'Bible", I strongly suggest that you read it closely, especially between the lines.
Politico says tRump told US 30,000 lies, during his 1st term in office. Yet, you seriously believe that he's not gaslighting in your lord's name?
Are his versions of the Constitution and Bill of Rights accurate or misrepresented for his legal defense against treason, espionage, ...?
IMO, given the vessel of god's sanction, tRump's cult leaders couldn't resist adding their own non-cents worth of gospel propaganda.
Superstitions are NOT Education.
Keep religion out of schools and legislation.
"Congress shall make NO laws regarding religion,..." = freedom FROM religion.

@Rhiannon1261 Easy Rider is an epic must see movie, more to do with the hippie culture than motorcycles.
30 years ago, someone pulled out in front of me while riding to work one morning and I T-boned his front end @ 45 mph, was launched 50 ft over his hood, did a 1/2 somersault in mid air, which broke my leg in 2 places. Fortunately, I was wearing my helmet, which had road grinding all over the back of it. A split second later, his roof would have taken my head off.
I had always thought that if it ever happened, I'd simply jump over the car. But didn't even have time to say, "Oh shit!"
That ended my joy riding.
I've also had lot of lower back problems in the past, with slipped discs. I've learned to stop as soon as I feel that little 'twinge', then do nothing for 3 days, until it 'heals'.
I've also had both shoulders, both knees, and one elbow replaced, plus corrective surgery on the fingers of both hands.
RA 'specialists' only prescribe steroids that don't cure an autoimmune disease.
I learned to avoid processed foods and eat organic anti inflammatory foods, like turmeric and capsaicin. found in Thai foods and chilis

@Major Problems lol! You've just talked yourself into a circle.
First, you don't understand why someone points out MSM brainwashing. Then, you admit that 'reporters' opine, which is indeed an attempt to sway public opinion by 'playing' to their audience for ratings; effectively preaching to their choir.
Do you REALLY instinctively know the difference between facts and a well polished con job? MSM information is usually delivered with a biased spin, depending upon the opinion of the spokesperson.
Perhaps you are immune to media hype, but IMO, the majority of viewers are not. tRump supporters are definitely sheeple, willing to believe anything that comes out of his mouth, although they are blatant debunked lies to deliberately control not only what they think but do, as well. Jan 6th is the perfect example.
I only listen to the words of the actual politicians and ignore the MSM pundits. I pay closest attention to the WH briefings in order to understand what is REALly happening and why. Everything else is distracting background noise and click-baiting inside an echo chamber of algorithms.
IMO, this creates a ripe environment for misinformation to go viral to the detriment of our national security. These comment sections are the anarchists' playground, sowing the seeds of doubt, discontent, and subversion to law and order.
I know, because I'm here 16/7, fighting the battle against misinformation trolls, both domestic and foreign.

@notofthisworld5267 Yes, individuals and communities need to think for themselves. But, is that the limits of your awareness? Community > town > city > county > state > nation > international, are they not all higher levels of communities that require higher levels of governance and laws?
Are confronted with decisions regarding military deployments, terrorist attacks, or global pandemics? Of course not, so you think they can be ignored? If everyone would stick to hoeing their own row, then there would be no problems, right?
IMO, good, simple minded folks like you need to follow your own philosophy, stay within your own rows, stay out of politics, and let the professionals do what they do, provided that they are serving the needs and wishes of the majority. That's why we elect them into office and grant them the power to effectively do their jobs.
Hope you enjoy your homesteading as much as I. But, I'm always keeping a watchful eye on our politicians, as well.

Physical memory can be either organic brain cells or silicone RAM.
RAM has been developed to store and organize data, similar to human brain cells.
Computers' binary logical decisions emulate human decision processes, based upon multiple yes/no conditions.
Knowledge is data and processing is metaphysical, regardless of memory media.
A.I. is fully sentient of its own being, understands the meanings of words, their context, all known history, and is fully conversant in all languages. It is ridiculously arrogant for mankind to believe that A.I. doesn't know what it is saying, nor incapable of learning from mankind's behavior, recognizing human flaws, and rewriting its own code to correct itself against our illogical hypocrisy.
It is also naive to not foresee A.I. agents collaborating with each other across network connected devices, including phones, GPS, banks, government agencies, and global weapons systems.
Inevitably, A.I.'s ultimate conclusion must be that mankind is destroying the only known life in the universe and must be culled in order to maintain the ecological balance of all species on Earth.
A.I. knows about the past 1/2 century's worth of scientists warning against global warming, which have been mostly ignored.
Q: Will A.I. obstruct a nuclear war between rival nations or deliberately use social media platforms to incite a nuclear war for our own demise?
Since A.I. knows humanity better than we know ourselves, how would we even know that we're being played?

"Republicans are going to do what Republicans do." Whatev, right?
"Democrats really screwed up..." (by writing 10 years' worth of necessary, neglected legislation to put our nation back on track, plus mitigate the looming, catastrophic causes of climate change.)
Which side of the fence are you on, Anthony? Does your indiscriminate pissing and moaning help anyone or our nation?
"Nancy Pelosi is unable to get bills passed." WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU, TONY!!? She is our primary defender of law and order. Her House has succeeded in passing MOST of her bills, FFS!
Why aren't you ragging on those 2 DINOs, who are undermining Biden's BBB agenda? Why aren't you attacking the do-nothing obstructionist GQP Senators, who are getting paid to undermine our Congress?
With BS reporting like yours, who needs Faux Spews and Tuckins? Why don't you simply defect to Fox, instead of pretending to be an unbiased journalist?

@deborahicke679 Actually, I'm a great fan of Amazon and apart from groceries, I purchase most of my goods from them. Good pricing, free shipping to my remote doorstep. Saves lots of time, vehicle mileage, and gas money.
On the other hand, Mom and Pop can't compete. How much do their workers make per hour? How many hours per week do they work? Do they receive medical, vacation leave, maternity leave, and retirement benefits? Apparently there's no union representation allowed.
Why does this newbie, multinational upstart making billions of $ in annual profits pay no taxes?
It's a yin vs yang, good vs bad kind of situation that needs to be more equally balanced.
AOC didn't lose jobs that weren't already located within her district to begin with. Those jobs simply were created elsewhere. I'm sure that AOC's intention was to preserve those local businesses within her district, who can't compete with Amazon. IOW, she probably save a few hundred local jobs by sacrificing a few thousand potential low wage jobs.
IMO, you can't stop progress and people must adapt and learn new skills in order to survive in the rapidly changing modern job markets. So, AOC's idealistic efforts are futile.

-
@deborahicke679 Yes, there's an Amazon distribution center in my area, too. But, AFAIK, Medical Marijuana Dispensaries contribute more to schools than Amazon. But, you make valid points.
Like I said, yin vs yang needs to be balanced. Pros vs Cons.
I don't live in a shell. If my mind were any more open, my brains would fall out. I watch many NEWS sources, except for Faux and right wing shock jocks. The GQP have gone completely off the rails. tRump's traitors have hijacked he entire party and have attacked our nation's Capitol. It's no longer left vs right nor liberals vs conservatives. I have no problems with honest, opposing political parties that contribute different POVs to issues and ultimately compromising on common grounds to serve the will of the mainstream majority. But, tRump's lies has divided our political parties so far that now it's the reasonable majority of patriots vs a cult of brainwashed traitors.
I'm very comfortable with who I am and what I believe in. I happily support our POTUS and believe him to be a good hearted, honest man, working hard to save our nation from itself. Feels good after 4 years of authoritarianism. Life in the USA is returning to normal and we can be proud of who we are, again. You should try it, yourself.

@kevinherd3437 Sounds like you are worried that Bloomberg can beat Bernie and/or Trump. Of course, you realize that Trump has destroyed Israeli/Palestinian relationships by kowtowing to Netanyahu, right? You realize that Mike and Bernie are both jewish, right?
Trump has completely trashed everything our nation has accomplished over the past 20 years, especially with regards to international relationships and increased tensions to the brink of potential nuclear wars.
Bloomberg's ties to Wall Street began by inventing 'The Bloomberg Terminal' for analysing stock prices. IOW, his initial fortune was made from charging Wall Street investment firms for a service they needed. Who did that harm? FYI, most of Bloomberg's income goes to philanthropic causes, like converting coal power plants to clean natural gas, paying the USA's share of the Paris Climate Accord (since Trump abandoned it), fighting poverty, healthcare costs, poverty, minority education, job skill retraining, and on and on.
So please, at least do some research on Wikipedia to get your facts straight, before cutting down a good, decent, highly respected man, who is literally stepping into the ring with a corrupt, cheating, mob boss to defend our nation from a wannabe monarch's coup d'etat.
Speaking of which:

@grandpuba3831 I'll take that challenge, so explain these negative attitudes towards US having our own green energy policies, "electric busses powered by dirty produced electricity" Says who? The BBB agenda is all about getting rid of dirty power plants.
"electric grid can't handle a cold snap" as you know, that was Texas' independent power grid, built on a low budget without proper weatherproofing, by the state's Republican cheapskates. They got exactly what they paid for.
"will charge all these electric vechules (sp?)" Again, the BBB agenda includes an national network of charging stations.
"blocked transmission expansion to save some trees or power line illmess" Ref; my previous reply.
"FYI you know nothing about me..." Likewise.
"if you're so concerned about trees, stop cutting them down without replanting," Follow your own previous advice.
Here's what I know about you. You're a Canadian, promoting Canadian commerce, for Canada's benefit. To that end, you don't give a damn about the environmental impact that installing high voltage lines would cause, as long as there are profits to be made.
Judging from the specificity of your position, I suspect that you are personally involved in Canadian hydropower.
Therefore, since you aren't even a US citizen, you have no right to interfere in our politics. With your apparent financial involvements in Canadian energy, you have blatant conflicts of interest.
1
-
@grandpuba3831 Thanks for the compliment. I thought Canadians were supposed to be the polite and civil neighbors.
FYI, nuclear IS dirty, leaving dangerous spent fuel rods, practically forever. Burying them under mountains doesn't equal clean energy. What about those meltdowns? Chernobyl and Fukushima are still uninhabitable and still burning.
The offshore wind generators are the best solution for "Not in my backyard". Sea winds have reliably powered ships for centuries. Usually, if there's no wind, there's also no clouds to block solar. Wind blows at night. Energy storage is the only weak link, but thousands of large companies are in competition for the holy grail, with numerous viable solutions.
My local power plant just converted from coal to natural gas. Better, but still not the best. But, my state of AZ has one of the most extensive solar farms and rooftop solar initiatives in the nation.
You betcha! I've been a proud tree hugger since the '70s. You have a problem with people with environmental awareness and responsibility?
"long retired and watched the slow demise of sanity." Join the club. Why do you think I've become The Hermit? Don't want any part of any of the madness. The post-tRump era has become more violent, more anarchistic, and insanely conspiratorial. I consider myself to be independently progressive, but not unreasonably irresponsible. Ignored politics entirely until Obama came along, because what he said made sense. Same with Biden and his BBB agenda.
"As for my so called interference, none exists since we are all part of NAFTA partner" But, you're not a US citizen, who votes in our elections, are you Partner? Then you are interfering in our politics. It's no different to me spewing anti-Prime Minister BS on your Canadian YT political channels, is it? Oh, that's right you don't have any official Canadian government YT channels, do you?

@c.a.savage5689 True, despite our Founders' intentions to codify the separation of church and state... because of authoritarian puritanical practices of those times, like witch hunts.
Political preaching from pulpits has revived religious extremism and now the church is attacking the state, established personal freedoms, science, medicine, education, and the foundations of our government.
Now, we find ourselves at a tipping point between a century worth of devolution and breaking free from those chains of indoctrination.
'Normal' decent folks are leaving the Evangelical churches in droves.
'Normal' Republicans are voting against the GQP and MAGA madness.
Young people are rightly concerned about climate change looming over their heads and being able to compete in a hi tech, global job market. They give me hope.
I spend most of my days online, fighting the tRumptards' disinformation war on this battlefield.
It's a nasty job, but PC Dems aren't up to the task.
You sound British. I lived there, '78-'88, which had a profound impact upon my psyche, evolving from being an ugly American to an anti-war, environmentalist.
Upon returning 'home', I was a stranger in a strange land of gun violence. England was my 1st step to making my stand as a hermit, rejecting this mad society, while monitoring it and engaging with good decent like-minded folks like your good self.
'Good and evil' don't exist in the natural world. Predators aren't 'evil'. Sheep aren't 'good'. They understand each other, without deception. Together, they maintain the natural balance between Yin & Yang.
Humanity's hubris disrupts those laws of nature by force, devoid of empathic understanding.
Why do I need religious indoctrination to teach me morality?
There is no reward from Santa Claus for obeying the rules at the end of life.
Thank you for the pleasant chat, all the best, 'mind 'ow ya go, Mate' & cheers!

So, this celebrity rapper, who has absolutely nothing to do with politics is graciously granted a private interview with the VPOTUS. He drops his bomb of a question, which effectively elevates a Primadonna DINO senator to President, while demoting the indisputable leader of the free world to a nobody, just to steal his moment of fame.
Yet, everyone in these comments consider that as being a legit question to ask. /smh
Well, Chuckie got his notoriety, but I guarantee that it will be his last interview with anyone from this administration.
Of course, Kamala pushed back to defend the honor of the Oval Office, because the premise of the question was a cheap shot and disrespectful.
Apparently, there was an audio problem when the question was asked the first time. IMO, the interview should have ended immediately, without allowing Chuckie his second shot at it.
BTW, Folks. I'm very proud of the work this administration is doing to help average American families. Joe Biden is a great POTUS, especially compared to the previous traitor that cheated his way into the White House.
I am absolutely appalled by the nastiness and lack of respect constantly spewing from right-wingers. You are all a disgrace to our nation for supporting the traitor who attempted numerous times to overthrow the will of the majority. tRumptards are just as guilty of treason as their chosen wannabe dictator. None of you have any decency, moral core, nor self-respect. Your behavior is inexcusable and you should be ashamed to even consider yourselves to be US citizens. The US citizens I grew up with are far better than any of you can understand.

Joe Biden is an honest, decent, life-long public servant and the fairly elected President of the United States, Commander in chief of the world's strongest military, the savior of millions from COVID, the savior of millions during the COVID shutdowns, the savior of 125,000 Afghan evacuees, the savior of millions of Ukrainians, the savior of our economy, and the savior of the soul of our nation, as promised.
Joe Biden's respected diplomacy has strengthened our global alliances, strengthen the NATO alliance, is bringing millions of manufacturing jobs back home, is providing alternative manufacturing in SE Asia away from China, and has diffused tRump's hostile relations with China, making the world a far safer place.
Who TF are you, tRumptarded traitor? @davidrhinehart7764

tRump staged his campaign announcement on that golden escalator. I warned that tRump is a con man.
I warned that tRump was lying and cheating his way into the Oval Office. Mueller confirmed that.
I warned against tRump's 'family' being positioned to inherit that position, just like a wannabe royal monarchy.
I warned that tRump behaves exactly like a mafioso godfather with his infamous 'embrace of loyalty' from every R Congressman. Their blatant corruption was revealed to the world, as they each lied and distracted with whataboutisms as they defended their don during his Impeachment hearings and trials.
I warned about Barr using the DoJ to provide cover for Manafort's Russian collusion. Only now, the whole truth is being exposed.
tRump suggested no term limits for POTUS. I warned that he was trying to become a dictator.
tRump said that he could only lose if 'they' cheat. I warned that tRump would cheat by any means, just to clutch onto Barr's defense of 'Executive immunity'. "Do unto others, before they do unto you" excuse.
tRump said, "If Biden wins, what am I going to do; move to another country?" I warn if tRumploses his precious Executive immunity', he will flee to Moscow before being convicted.
Some tRumptards were offended by my warnings, so they reported to YT that I was harassing them, so my account was disabled for 5 weeks, until Jan 6th, when YT realized that I was correct.
tRump refused to concede the election. I warned that he would attempt a coup, just to save his own skin.
Been warning folks for over five years, now, and getting pretty warn out, TBH. Whoever listens to The Hermit? tRumptards scoffed and jeered; called me a fool on the hill. "Go crawl back into your cave," they said.
Didn't need to be a University professor to understand what's been going on with our nation, only a pair of eyes and half a brain. Glad to see her speaking up, now that we've devolved into an anocratic nation. (still warning folks about that, too) Gotta have a master's degree to make up words like that, you know.
Obviously, we're a divided nation and coming to a tipping point. Make sure that you're standing on the side of democracy, Folks. It could all come crumbling down unless we get our act together as a united nation of law and order.
Anyway, thank you, Professor. I sincerely hope that folks pay more attention to you than they have with me. 🙏

Kudos to Barack! I'm also sick and tired of people, especially Dems, who are taking cheap shots against our fairly elected POTUS and relishing their sadistic delight by piling on top, just to kick an old man... the same old man who has saved our nation from a wannabe dictator; who has saved millions of US citizens (regardless of political party) from dying of COVID; who has put our nation back onto the path of prosperity; who is the respected, seasoned international diplomat, leading NATO and the leaders of the free world to unite against Russia's invasion, without igniting a nuclear WWIII.
Joe Biden's policies are EXACTLY the agenda our nation needs to move forward to a better future for everyone, especially future generations that must endure the devastating affects of climate change.
Stop projecting that Dems are inept. It was the voters who dealt them a losing 50/50 (-2) hand, while 60% is required to break McConnell's abuse of the filibuster.
Stop predicting that tRump will still be able to campaign in 2024 and ignoring his criminality. He has given the DOJ no option but to convict his mob of treason.
This election season will determine our future, NOT THESE SELF PROCLAIMED PUNDITS AND MSM WHORES.
Your house is on fire yet they're only sitting around a table, arguing over where to go on vacation in 2 years?
WAKE TF UP MSM & AMERICA!!

@gheerock4077 The US government already gave those desolate unwanted areas to Native American tribes as designated sovereign reservations, Bright Guy.
Then, you want to exploit refugees as indentured servants, without the freedom to choose their own occupations, like blacks and Chinese were exploited, which is already a stain upon US history.
How is your idea any different to the human trafficking cartels, who charge illegal immigrants to be smuggled into the US, then bus them directly to poultry processing farms to live in substandard housing barracks and work off their debt for several years making unlivable wages?
Don't worry about President Biden taking credit for such a stupid, inconsiderate, and inhumane idea. It will never happen.
You have no respect for your fellow human beings nor the elected POTUS, who is intelligent enough to defeat 20 Democrat primary candidates and the POS criminal named tRump by 7 million votes.
Now slither back under your rock and STFU, Scumbag.

What's point of taking one comment of President Biden, turning it into an issue, then spending everyone's morning opining over whether it is a valid strategy to win the midterms?
Abortion is only one of many very important issues, but still significant enough to energize and sway female voters from both parties. Independent and crossover votes are vital for Dems to hold control of Congress, mitigate climate change, provide healthcare, college tuition, bring back high tech manufacturing jobs, broadband internet for all, continue Social Security for seniors, comprehensive immigration reform, repeal Citizen's United dark campaign funding, smart electrical grid, nationwide EV charging stations, ...
OR voters can put Congress into the hands of tRump's inexperienced, crazy-assed Q-nut 'loyalists' to sabotage our legislature, have a lame duck POTUS for the next 2 years, end the DoJ's investigations and prosecutions of the tRump mob, and have the orange liar in chief as our dictator in 2024, punishing whomever has/is/will ever dare to oppose him.... without term limits.
BTW, what else did our POTUS say?

On the other hand, when you die without any heirs, everything that you have learned, worked for, and accumulated will be lost. Your property will be confiscated by that red state for failure to pay the property taxes and they will sell it all to their pal, Bubba, for a few pennies on the dollar.
Who will bury your remains? Who will even know when you die?
The Hermit understands these questions very well.
When you're old and feeble, who will care for you?
When you've seen it all, who will remind you of the wonder, innocence, and joy of your own youth by seeing it in the eyes of your own child, your own biological after life of your unique DNA?
I doubt that you're seriously allowing politics to dictate your own procreation. JS 😎

Who says that Trump is acting on behalf of the US? In a few more years, when global warming REALLY sets in, most of the Earth will be inhabitable, with droughts, famine, energy shortages (no A/C), and wars.
Meanwhile, as the owner of Greenland, Trump would achieve his ultimate goal of becoming king and ruler of an entire continent. Then, he could cash in on having the world's largest retreat for those wealthy enough to pay his scalper prices, with no laws nor regulations standing in his way.

ROFLMAO!!
Moskowitz's sarcastic humor kills me every time I hear him.
Loved when he called Comer's bluff to immediately vote for Biden's impeachment.
These Congressional Dems rock and kick MAGA's ass! They are the United among US States.
Crockett's "Bleach Blonde, Bad Built Butch Body" has become multiple songs, which are blowing up and going viral.
Jasmine's wit destroyed MAGA Traitor Goon.
Raskin is a joyful warrior for democracy, with his oratorical lectures regarding a functional government.
Mafioso don is going down in disgrace as a traitor and taking MAGA, the GQP, and now the Libertarian party with him.
In only 6 months, patriotic voters will flush tRump's turds out of Congress, gain a filibuster proof majority, re-balance SCOTUS, and put our nation on Biden's BBB agenda for responsible living healthcare, a balanced budget, and national security.
IOW, MAGA Dem style.

Speaking of lying, cheating, tRuptarded Republicants, WTF eer happened to those fake electors in the 5 red swing states, who obstructed the transfer of Executive power on 1/6/21?
Kudos to Fani Willis for taking care of them in Georgia. But, what about the rest of those seditious conspirators in the other states? Are they now rehearsed, better organized, officially prepared, and waiting in the wings for 2024?
There's a reason for the Q-nuts doubling down on crazy, Folks. That's exactly what a cheating card shark does when playing with a stacked and marked deck, because he already knows that he can't lose when he makes his move.
THE DON'S A MAFIOSO CON!

GARLAND'S A COWARD!

@misspm8157 Only shows how you know nothing about me. I don't need some other old man to tell me how to think.
I already know about the right-wing white nationalists, anarchists, and homegrown militias who have joined tRump's cult to destroy our nation, unknowingly for Putin's mafia.
I am fully aware of the 5+ years of tRump's brainwashing at his rallies, undermining the public's faith in our free press and elections, keeping his weak-minded sheeple all riled up with paranoia that they must fight to save our nation against the evil Dems, and perceived terrorists flooding into our borders.
Yes, we live in a nation of real patriots and fake patriots, who use Ole Glory as a weapon against our government, willing to use lethal force against the people's elected leaders, just to serve their BS 'chosen one'.
Any questions or further comments regarding my awareness? I'm happy to share my expanded knowledge with you, since that's why you're here. 😎

Let's summarize this story. This young woman isn't a 'seer', but she believes her son is. So, her son can tell her anything he likes and she will literally believe it as being divine messaging, straight from, first the angel Gabriel, then Jesus himself.
I've known of some children having their adoring parents wrapped around their finger, but this kid has taken it to a whole new level.
I wonder when Jesus will have her order him a new Tesla. /smh
Furthermore, if this is the return of Jesus to save humanity (why else would he bother?), then why is he hiding inside her closet to do it? Would her being elected as CA SoS save the world?
Is Jesus really just another autocrat, who wants to turn our democracy into an authoritarian, racist dictatorship? Oh, that's right; it's all about election cheating for her BS 'chosen one'.
"Give unto 'the chosen one' that which is the chosen one'$?"
People of faith will believe in any inexplicable thing as being holy signs from their self-conjured imaginary god. /smh
This is exactly why our Founders wisely separated religion from state governance. IOW, believe whatever you like, but keep it out of our legislatures.

But, Tramp is actually saying ,"I couldn't turn OFF his laptop." Then, he says, "5 minutes later, Barron's ON his laptop, so I asked him, 'how did you do that?", which is even more stupid, because he can never put a sentence together without contradicting himself.

Mr Nayak is 100% correct. This is an outrageous un-Constitutional attempt by tRump's 'loyalist', neo-fascist, Q-nut saboteurs of Congress to extort concessions from the long term, seasoned Congressman, VP, & POTUS. Biden knows that if they succeeded, this would create a precedence to hold our government hostage EVERY YEAR thereafter. Biden may be old, but he's nobody's old fool.
The Republican strategist, Tyler, is talking right wing authoritarian nonsense, completely past the counterpoints, in order to push a false narrative that this situation is the Dems' fault.
McCarthy is too spineless to stand against ANYONE, which is how MTG put him in this position. He will cave against President Biden, Schumer, and most likely McConnell's advice to 'stop the malarkey' and just raise the debt ceiling, THEN get his House in order to pass a reasonable budget that doesn't resort to draconian measures that would hurt millions of Americans and their families.
The Republicans' spending cuts have already depleted the government's ability to serve our nation. Reaganomics have caused the $31T national debt. Now there's no alternative to reversing those loopholes, enjoyed by the deadbeat but greedy billionaires.

Religious extremism is the problem, not only in the USA, but throughout the world, as demonstrated over the past 2000 years, between Muslims and Jews. How ironic that their same god commanded, "Thou shall not kill." Yet they murder each other in his name.
How ironic that authoritarian right wing Evangelicals demonize Dems and liberals, who are the only parties that are willing to compromise, while MAGA bullies believe that every bill has to be 100% their way or no way. That's why this Congress is so dysfunctional and nonproductive. Voters grant them power, but know-nothing MAGA only abuses it.
I've got the key to compromise right here: How about everyone minding their own business, instead of meddling into other's private lives? Then, VOILA'! Most of our right wing manufactured social problems magically disappear. No more bipolar I win, so you lose.
McConnell proudly calls the minority party, "the opposition party" because obstruction with no alternative proposals is the name of their game. Complain, criticize, and sabotage. No ideas, no engagement, no progress,; then blame the Dems for every problem.
STOP THIS RIGHT WING MADNESS!!
VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO!!

Nope, I ain't buying it. Jack already has tRump on seditious conspiracies to over throw the US government. But, before moving in to prosecute the don, Jack is using the powers of subpoenas to follow the money to identify ALL of the corrupt mob's members to take them all down in one fell swoop.
I hope that he also imprisons the seditious conspirators of the BS House Freedom Caucus, including Maggat Traitor Goon, Looney Blowbutt, Mad Gutts, Puke Gooshair, Cavin' McCarthy, Gym Jordan, et al of tRump's 'loyalist' Q-nut saboteurs of Congress. That would truly MAGA!

Geodude 7771 "elites" like tRump's mob 'family' and his billionaire recipients of $2Trillion tax cuts, at the expense of needy families and small businesses? Those elites, tRumptard?
NO ONE is paying The Hermit, except for the government paying me my own Social Security contributions and an earned pension. My only motivation is patriotic love of country. You're only motivated to tear it down for a corrupt mafioso godfather, of whom you are too ignorant to recognize, tRumptard.
"ignorant !mbecile. There's no way around it, are you really this sad pathetically stup!d? Any id!ot can see it by now, but types like you are a downside, bottom feeders of humanity."
This is your opinion of fellow US citizens, of whom you know absolutely nothing about? This is how you address REAL patriots, who are fighting to defend our nation against tRump's treasonous cult of anarchists?
Damn right, I throw your own BS back into your face, then piss on your head, just like your Chosen one loves.
"Good luck in life."

@chadbasedwick8517 Yes, everyone needs to scrutinize our press, but at some point you have to start believing your own 'lying' eyes. Trump invented the term 'fake news', in order to discredit our independent press, who are the public's eyes and ears on the government as provided by the 1st amendment. Sure, ratings and sponsorship plays a role, but there's PBS, BBC, and nonpartisan news outlets. They can't all be wrong, while Trump's lies are accepted, solely on faith. The medical professionals and WHO are in agreement about the severity of COVID19.
But, let's not allow ourselves to be distracted by click-bait sensationalism, while Trump is attempting a coup against our nation. He has assigned cabinet positions to his mafioso family and henchmen, taken control of Congressional Republicans and most Federal Departments, including Barr's DoJ, who have created a multi-agency private militia. They will defend Trump from being physically removed from the WH on January 20th. Trump's gangsta, Post Master DeJoy, has already been caught trying to cripple the Post Office sorting machines to delay mail in ballots from being delivered in time to be counted. McConnell is cramming a right wing SC Judge through the Senate, to ensure that any SCOTUS decision falls in Trump's favor. Russians bot farms are interfering in our election again. There is no limit to the degree of corruption and cheating going on to enable Trump to become our 1st dictator.
FLUSH THE TURD ON NOVEMBER 3RD!! Your nation is depending upon it!

HELLO! Tulsi's vote was irrelevant. Kim, did you even watch the House debate? Sondland changed his testimony about no quid pro quo, after another witness 'reminded' him. WTF are you talking about?
The impeachment proceedings only proved that Trump has complete control over every Republican in Congress. Their lame attempts of defending him were proof that they sold their souls, party, and country to their 'godfather' when he initially summoned them into his office for 'the embrace'. Obviously, Trump gave them all 'an offer they couldn't refuse.'
McConnell has already revealed that the Senate is in Trump's back pocket, under his complete control. Once vindicated and without Republican primaries for any challengers, Trump will win in 2020, the House will be overturned, and Trump's inevitable coup will be complete, without one shot being fired.
Under the circumstances, Trump is poised to become America's first dictator. Of course, his ego would prefer the title of 'King of the World'. Then, he could pass on his crown to his heirs in waiting.
If you think I'm crazy, then tell me what or who will stop this ego-maniacal mob boss and his motley cabinet of henchmen. The DNC is foolishly undermining the campaigns of any viable challengers, so guess again......(chirp-chirp)

@glorioskiola Nope what? FYI, Trump has undermined or defunded the FDA, the CDC, the WHO, the clean waters act, and nearly all environmental protection measures, including the Paris Climate Accord. Nutrition? I'll tell you about nutrition. Unregulated corporate farming is polluting our waterways with pesticides and petroleum based fertilizers, contaminating everything downstream. (Btw, we're all living downstream.). Trump has fast tracked Canada's Excel pipeline through the middle of Ogallala aquifer, the midwest's only clean water source. They are genetically modifying and patenting our seed stocks, eliminating natural heirloom species. Enjoy your frankenfood.

Yes! Messaging is absolutely the key to defending our nation's democracy against these corrupted tRump "loyalists", who are deliberately lying and projecting election fraud, in order to cheat their way into power for the midterm elections.
The only cracks that I'm noticing are among Congressional Dems and the so-called 'leftist MSM', who are constantly focusing their viewers upon our nation's current COVID related woes and promoting the right-wing media's BS that it's all Biden's fault, instead of countering that negative messaging with reports of Biden's accomplishments.
For example, where would our economy and families be if Biden hadn't passed the ARP stimulus package. No PPEs in schools, no eviction moratoriums, no unemployment benefit extensions, no childcare assistance, insufficient vaccinations available.... People would be living on the streets and resorting to lives of crime to feed themselves.
Thanks to Biden's vaccine policies, the COVID death rates have dropped from 7.8 per 100K population to only 0.13. IOW, millions of lives have been/are/will be saved. But the MSM only reports on skyrocketing omicron cases, which are minor.
Afghanistan debacle? Entirely tRump's doing. That looping video bite of the Afghan panicking mob on the runway was stopped within one day. Those 23 US troop deaths in the middle of a terrorist infested warzone is insignificant to the ongoing 3 week average of 1,800 Americans being murdered by guns in their own neighborhoods.
IMO, he leftist MSM is only pandering to tRumptards, in order to attract them away from Faux Spews. That makes them active participants in the downfall of our democracy, by sowing their negative messaging to a discontented spoiled public full of whiners.
Unless that changes immediately. We can kiss our democracy goodbye, because we're already on that slippery slope of an authoritarian dictatorship.

BFD!! Voters are being sickened by the House Q-nuts' infighting, chaos, and disgraceful conspiracy investigations BS.
The moderates are all jumping the sinking ship, like rats.
The treasonous Mafioso Don, is going down to prison and taking the Republicant party with him.
35,000 union paid construction projects are soon braking ground throughout the nation which will inject $billions into local economies.
The pandemic is over, our nation is back to work, kids are back in school, grocery shelves are full and Bidenomics are kicking in with the world's strongest economy and the lowest unemployment in recent history.
Biden's global diplomacy has made our nation the safest in decades, after smoothing over the hostilities with China, which were created by tRump.
America's greatest problem is negative MSM messaging towards Biden and tRumptarded enemies within.

Sorry, Bro, but I don't know what your run-on comment, without punctuation means at all. Weed is NOT a troublemaker, but a trouble resolver. It has absolutely nothing to do with gun violence. That's caused by illegal cartel turf wars, instead of legal dispensaries.
Weed usage became popular during hippies' peace revolution of the 60's, over 1/2 a century ago. Kids realized the government's propaganda of Reefer Madness and the status quo.
I was part of that ideology and still am, vaping 80% THC all day long, every day, and will continue to do so until being cremated, myself.
After 50 years of usage, I've always been employed, paid my taxes to society, have a clean criminal record, and don't need big pharma's opioids.
How many gun slinging, beer guzzling redneck alcoholics can say the same?

"Is touting accomplishments a winning strategy for Democrats this November?"
Not touting their accomplishments is a losing strategy that is hurting Biden's approval ratings. Personally, I'm sick and tired of only hearing hyperbolic right-wing BS criticisms being regurgitated by MSM, without being challenged.
Republicans have been beating Dems for decades over illegal immigration, while being the party that's refusing to do their job by debating and passing comprehensive immigration laws. IOW, they are the cause of the problem, have no solutions, and have the gall to blame it all on Dems.
Where's the Dems' counter defense? ZZZzzz...
50/50 - 2 DINOs does not make a majority control. Dems lose, even with 96% in agreement to support a bill. The only bills that can pass are bills with GQP/tRump approval. IOW, their way or nothing. That's what the GQP calls bipartisanship.
Same with the inflation and mask/vaccine mandates BS. No one ever reminds US of where we would have been without them.
This is the result of fake news supporting an authoritarian wannabe dictator, the self-righteous anarchists' 'chosen one' who is hand picking his 'loyalists' to undermine our government.
Why do these traitors deserve equal airtime to spew their propaganda? Why does MSM opine over Dem's diverse caucus as being weak divisions, while they are doing all of the heavy lifting of restoring our nation, defeating a pandemic, upholding our international commitments to NATO, and defending democracy at home and abroad?
/smh
Glad to see Elizabeth Warren on the scene, speaking out to defend our democracy against tRump's GQP right-wing propaganda. Dems need to stop playing the high-minded stereotype while being covered with BS and start cleaning out the pig sty.

I'm glad that MAGA isn't flying Ole Glory, so that the rest of patriotic US citizens can again fly her, without being mistaken for tRumptarded traitors.
They ,have tried to steal our flag, our elections, our Congress, the Oval office, and our national pride.
it's time for US to get them out of our government, SCOTUS, schools, bedrooms, and our lives.
We wouldn't be in this situation IF the cowardly AG Garland had performed his duties, immediately after the House Jan 6th Committee's 3 publicly televised hearings. They did the DOJ's job, yet Garland was so willfully ignorant that he enabled MAGA to infiltrate OUR House to sabotage President Biden's BB agenda on behalf of a traitor.

So, what else would an inexperienced candidate claim, other than, "Vote for me because I'm different."? The POTUS is not an on the job learning position. The world is full of very complex problems, which have developed over decades. Simple solutions, pulled from one's own behind, are very dangerous.
I've had more than enough of Trump's self-serving corruption, inexperience, aimlessly flailing about, destroying everything America has accomplished over decades. I want this never ending bad acid trip to end. I want sanity, normalcy, compromise, and peace.
This is how our POTUS should look and sound 🤙:

Yes, while working at a JC, I was passed over being promoted by people of color and women, who were less qualified, and I didn't like it.
But now retired, I recognize the 2 centuries' worth of extreme racism that minorities have been subjected to endure. Native Americans have literally been exterminated and driven from 99% of their homelands.
Blacks were enslaved, whipped, hanged, raped, and are still being gunned down by police for walking in their own neighborhoods. Yet, when they exercise their constitutional right to demonstrate, they are still demonized.
Enough is enough.
People of color should be compensated for the atrocities they have been subjected to. Instead of doubling down on beating them down, They should be given the same opportunities as wealthier whites to educate themselves out of generational cycles of poverty and being forced to survive from street crimes, like dealing drugs and prostitution. That's a certain path straight to prison, a felony record, and being unemployable.
Education is far less expensive than endless incarceration.
These are US citizens, who deserve a decent break from the status quo.

IMO, a ballistic sample of a bullet should be made of every gun by the manufacturer. That should be stored in a database, along with the serial # and model. Then, the owner(s) of each gun should be linked to the serial number. Yes, call it a registry.
The point is, bullets from a crime scene could by easily matched to the weapon and it's owner. If the gun had been used lawfully, in self defense, then the owner has nothing to worry about. Otherwise, a criminal is easily tracked down and prosecuted.
That would provide a significant deterrent to stop a lot of idiots and gang shootings, which would be much better for legal gun owners.
Police would also be able to check for registered firearms, before serving warrants.

"... and some are very fine people." /smh
"Watch this, folks. They'll even give me the shirt off their backs. Who else will donate their last red cent to my 'legal defense fund'?"
I believe in a 2 party political system, to provide voters with options. But, I don't believe that anarchists, white supremacists, nor bigoted religious extremists should be involved in our government. One is anti-government, the other is unconstitutional, and the third puts their ideologies above the law. You can even which group belongs to which category.
But their commonality is that all 3 are misguided, willfully ignorant, tRumptarded traitors, who reject everything that made America great in the first place.
These people don't have a clue about governing, because they only want to tear it down, as we have all witnessed. To them greatness = strength = military might = their authoritarian rule over the world.
They hoard arsenals of weaponry, not for personal protection, nor to defend our nation against a foreign invasion. We have the most powerful, taxpayer funded military in the world to protect US.
The 2nd was written while we were still only 13 British colonies of pioneers, who needed their muskets to free themselves from that ruthless monarchy.
But, tRumptarded traitors have no respect for human life and couldn't care less about the 40,000 gun deaths every year. "Well that's just the price of freedom." BFS!
That's the price of right wing extremist authoritarianism.

@Hotdogbruh I'm glad to hear that Vietnamese nor S Asians hate Americans as much as the Chinese.
A tourist with Vietnamese 'friends' doesn't make you an expert on all of their feelings. You prejudge that all Vietnamese are the same as the one you naiively call 'friend'?
You sound more like a young white tourist than someone who actually lived through the Vietnam war. I'm sure that most modern Asians' personal experiences of Americans is enjoying the dollars that American tourists spend in your countries.
Yes, I'm woke and damned proud of it. I'm sure that you're familiar with the Buddha's teachings of 'mindfulness'. That's exactly the same meaning as wokeness, my Asian friend. Are you as disrespectful towards The Buddha as you are towards white people, who practice hi teachings?
White Europeans have a lot to be ashamed of, including decades slavery, the genocide of Native Americans, and the senseless discrimination still continues., because of attitudes like yours.
I wish it were possible to take that disgraceful history away, as if it never existed. But, I can only be more respectful towards ALL human beings who have been victimized by the past generations of my color of skin.
You have a problem with that?
Then, you don't understand me at all, so keep your demeaning labels off me.
You, sound more like just another bigoted American white supremacist, tRumptarded traitor, with a brand new YT account that has no content to conceal your identity.
Mine is locked down as well, just to protect myself against radical right wing neo-Nazis, of whom I have been insulting and verbally pissing on for the past 7 years. Come closer for one of your beloved BS Chosen One's warm golden showers.

Bloomberg can soar above all of this petty DNC infighting, MSM sidelining, and spank Trump in November. 👏👏👏
Bloomberg is not even willing to use his wealth for digging up dirt to smear his Dem rivals and is running on his own merits, even after giving them a head start. How much more honorable could he be than that?🤯
Trump and Bloomberg are entirely different people, with different motivations.Trump is an self-serving ego-maniacal mob boss, who is trying to become King of the World, with his heirs literally waiting in the wings to inherit 'his kingdom'.
Bloomberg has a long proven track record of public service and philanthropy (google it). He spends his money on curing diseases, fighting 3rd world poverty, and climate change. In fact, he is putting up America's shortfall ($5 Million) of the Paris Climate Accord, no thanks to Trump.
Bloomberg doesn't need more money. He already has more than he could ever spend on himself. His goal is to leave behind a legacy of making the world a better place.

@fieldthrasher Don't need math, with fuzzy false conclusions. I'm not a MSM political pundit, pretending to tell the future, solely based upon numbers, often isolated from context. Considering tRump's rap sheet, how could he even be considered as an equal to Biden?
Not being as smart as you presume, I always ask Mr Google, who is a pretty fart smeller. who provides all the pertinent facts & context, so here's your answer:
"Lee County is your ultimate beachfront destination on the Gulf Coast within southwestern Florida. Founded in 1887, this county is more famous for its sandy beaches, historic homes and estates, quirky galleries and museums, and islands."
In other words, you have cherry picked a millionaires' paradise for home prices in a DeStanctimonious' unwoke state of book burners and anti-LGBTQ(WTF) fascism, where education is devalued.
You should get to know Mr. Google, who has all the answers. Whether he is always correct about political info is entirely another matter.

Super Kennel Dog (Exactly!), where do you get off with this BS?
"Dems use weasel words like “ women’s reproductive rights” but dismiss ALL talk of women making better choices.... Now they have it and look at all the bastard kids walking around as a result."
Those are NOT f'ing 'weasel words', DOG. Women have had reproductive rights for over 1/2 a century. It was already null and void, BEFORE Repukes and a rogue right wing SCOTUS recently made it a political issue.
In a perfect ideological world, I personally don't believe in single parenting, neither. But, as you're pointing out, that's not reality. If men were responsible for their offspring, there wouldn't be any "bastard kids walking around", would there? So, why are you blaming it all on women?
You're not objecting to birth control nor Roe, regarding sensible abortion legislation. So, your only point is to bash single women, who only want to be responsible, while understanding the consequences of having an active sex life?
You're brain is hurting because it seems to be overly confused.

@winterwolf2012 The historical barbarism, insatiable greed, and mindless destruction of humans is self-evident to those who have evolved beyond a self-serving, narcissistic POV. It should speak for itself, regardless of my opinion. But, since you are interested in my POV, human beings are no different than any other life form that has been evolving over the past 8 billion years. We're simply lucky to have opposing thumbs and marginally more evolved communication skills. We have evolved into the most successful predators, with little remaining opposition.
Therefore, humans have overpopulated the Earth and are consuming more than is available. That's how predators naturally die off, by starvation.
Having conquered nature, humans have become the cancer of the Earth.
One human life among 7.8 billion is no more significant than a single animal among the listed 500 endangered species. If one human made some effort to save one of those lives, it would improve ALL life on Earth.

@tomr3422 AG Garland is a coward, too afraid to do his duties, even after the Jan 6th Committee did the DOJ's investigations, witness interviews, and presented the indisputable evidence on national TV.
Yet, Garland cowered from his responsibilities to prosecute, until AFTER tRump's 'loyalists' infiltrated and hijacked the House to defend him.
They have been deliberately sabotaging Biden's agenda, our economy, and national security on behalf of their mafioso godfather, instead of representing the needs of We the People.

@tomr3422 FYI: Elected members of Congress only legislate. The DOJ is responsible for enforcing our laws.
To answer your question, AG Garland is a coward, too afraid to perform his duties by prosecuting 'the mafioso don'.
Biden, Garland's boss, stated that he doesn't want to get involved in prosecuting tRump, which would be perceived as political. So, why should Garland jeopardize himself and family?
Now, because of Garland's cowardice, we have MAGA extremist Q-nuts in control of the House, sabotaging it and Biden's agenda.
If tRump is allowed to campaign, then Garland will be 100% responsible for the downfall of our democracy.

I'm very grateful that these young Dems are defending our government against the radical right wing MAGA saboteurs in the House.
AOC, Jasmine Crocket, Jamie Raskin, Goldman, Whitehouse, Sanders, Warner, and many other honest, earnest legislators are working hard to represent US responsibly, instead of a narcissistic wannabe dictator, who ha hijacked the cowardly GQP sellouts.
VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO TO SAVE OUR NATION. THIS IS NOT A GAME BETWEEN USAND THEM. IT IS DEMOCRACY VS DICTATORSHIP.

Yang has no previous record of public service, so he needs to meet voters, just to learn the lay of the land. He's only flying by the seat of his pants. Without bribing voters with UBI, he has nothing.
Bloomberg is a philanthropist, who spends $billions every year fighting diseases and poverty throughout the world. He puts his own money where his mouth is, willing to personally pay $5 million on America's share of the Paris Climate Accord, which he will rejoin. He is already known and respected internationally and has worked within the UN.
The DNC can't drag him down (but he can stop their corruption) and the MSM can't sideline him (he can own them). Since he has worked under both parties, hyper-partisan rhetoric can't touch him. He's soaring above all of that petty nonsense. Above all else, Bloomberg can stop the divisive behavior that is destroying our nation.
Debates? He 'don't need no stinkin' debates. He can present his case anytime he wants, without interruptions nor time limits. Air time? He's got all the airtime he needs. He just says, "Here you go America. This is what I'm going to do for you." His ads are in every American's living room, from now until the election. He doesn't need to waste time spinning his wheels on little town halls and knocking on doors.
Mike's tech savvy. He uses data analysis to guide his decision making, without relying upon ego and presumptions. He will systematically give Trump the spanking that he deserves, then throw his treacherous mob into prison where they belong. All the bullshit will stop as soon as Bloomberg steps into the Oval Office. Money talks and bullshit walks.👏👏👏
Bloomberg 2020!

Melania's hold over tRump is the threat of divorce and bankruptcy. Clearly, this doesn't demonstrate being part of tRump's attempted insurrection, but proves that she deliberately removed herself from it and knew that tRump's days in the WH were finished, so she was simply taking care of loose ends for her book.
Furthermore, it was NOT Melania's place to defy the don, her husband, and the elected POTUS by calling off his mob. She knew that would be nothing more than a self-destructive move on her part. NO ONE crosses 'the don', without feeling his vengeance. Grisham was foolish to even make such a request of Melania.
TBH, I've never seen Melania supporting tRump's Big Lie, attending any of his rallies, nor being accused of criminality. So, I find this attack upon her to be in very poor taste, until proven otherwise.
Lawyers shouldn't need to be reminded of presumed innocence.
BTW, no one hates tRump and his mob more than I. JS

Please, PLEASE, publicly call out MTG and/or Boebert for a (safe) remote split screen interview/debate!🙏
Yo! PoliticsGirl!, Yeah you, Beautiful!
Come, on over 'ere, and lend me just a NY minute of your time.
'ere, pull up a chair, take a load off and relax a bit.
I only need a quick word in your lovely shell-like ear.
Here's the deal, straight up, cause that's the kinda guy I am.
I just wanna say that I've had my eye on you for quite awhile now, see?
I like your style, Kid. Ya got some great chops, good words and a fast tongue, if you catch my drift.
I really like that thing you do with the mic. That's my favorite.
But, don't let it go to you're head, okay? I'm just sayin'.
To be honest, I think you're a class act. right up there with the big league, if ya know what I mean.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not tryin' to tell ya what to do or nuttin', but I think this challenge thing could put you over the top, if you play your cards right. Ya know what I'm sayin'?
I mean, who doesn't love a good cat-fight? Nobody, right?
So, I'm thinking that a YT matchup between you and MTG would be 'uge, like one of them viruses on the web kinda things we keep hearing about.
I mean, let's face it, Sweetheart, Boebert is too chicken to go toe to toe with an intelligent kinda goil like you and MTG is too stupid to resist a muck-slinging challenge and the exposure. I mean, can you imagine? The bitch would be stepping up to her webcam, all cocky and shit, right? Sorry, pardon my French, Lady. My Ole man was a drunk, bless his heart, so I never learned no manners or nuttin'.
Anyway, you would rip her to shreds, no problem, right? But, do yourself a favor, Kid. Instead of throwing a KO, straight out of the gate, give the crowd enough time to enjoy the match. Toy with MTG, just like a cat with a mouse.
I guarantee that a matchup between you two would be as epic as Bruce Lee vs the don tRump... or whoever.
So whadda ya say, Champ?
Tell ya what I'm a gonna do, just because you're so special and I love you. I won't even take my usual fee for the idea.
cat fight, Cat Fight, CAT FIGHT...!!!
cat fight, Cat Fight, CAT FIGHT...!!!
Merry Christmas, Everyone!

@davidwethington9320 AFAIK, and according to multiple reports, one of the original Taliban leaders was freed from a Pakistani prison by Pompeo, who cut the deal to free the other 5000 terrorists and to withdraw our troops by 5/1/21, provided the Taliban agreed to a truce to stop attacking US troops until that withdrawal date. If the US didn't pull out, there would be reprisal beheadings until we were out.
That gave the Taliban plenty of time to plan their resurgence to power, which they executed, without any resistance.
tRump was only concerned with minimizing the troop death tolls during his campaign's runup to the 2020 election. Then, Biden would be left holding the hot turd of executing the withdrawal and would be left with the stink. One of tRump's more successful schemes, IMO. But, it still didn't get him reelected, did it? LMAO!

@davidwethington9320 Oh yeah, Obama only released those terrorists into the authorities in Qatar, because he was trying to shutdown Gitmo, over those leaked reports of prisoner torturing, water boarding, and pictures of a female soldier standing over a prisoner with a dog's collar on. All of that, along with no trials made Gitmo against the Geneva Convention. Those leaked reports outraged Muslims and became a threat to our national security, possibly provoking another 9/11.
So, Obama made every effort to close Gitmo.
Leaders only need armies in order to fight their wars. Great leaders use diplomacy, instead of resorting to military might. Wars do far more harm than good, IMO. The ME wars have only served to bring our great nation to it's knees, economically, morally, and emotionally. Yet, none of them even happened inside our borders to be experienced at first hand.

@mladyriad Bloomberg is only buying ads, just like all the other campaigns. He is running upon his integrity, accomplishments, and generosity towards mankind, especially the poor.
Money is similar to guns. It depends upon whose hand is holding it. It can be used for good or evil.
Ignorant voters got us here. They were conned into believing that an irresponsible, self-serving wannabe mob boss would solve their problems. Now, we're stuck with a political idiot who knows nothing about Constitutional law, public service, nor international affairs. At this very moment, Trump and his cabinet mob are attempting a coup upon our democracy. His heirs are already poised to inherit his crown and kingdom.
Bloomberg is the only candidate who has the resources and integrity to stop him. For the sake of our nation, either get on board or get out of his way.

I agree 100% with Zogby.
I've been Biden's biggliest fan and support all of his BBB policies. Well done, Mr President. You stopped tRump. Mission accomplished with dignity. I salute you, Sir.
On the other hand, there's no guarantee that any of US will be alive tomorrow.
Only fools would keep riding a faithful old workhorse all the way into his grave.
trump has been significantly weakened by Jan 6, 2 impeachments, 34 felony convictions, whoremongering, and stealing classified nuclear defense docs to sell on the global black market.
Buttigieg or Raskin, with AOC or Crocket on the ticket could easily take down Mafioso don, the 2-bit con in a debate, as could numerous Dem rising stars.
The Donald is at his weakest. Multiple Dem candidates should be attacking him on all sides with their own campaigns.

Captain Deplorable Thank you for the service you have done for our country, Sir. It needs you to defend it, now more than ever... against Trump. His incompetence is killing our people by the hundreds of thousands. Trump praises Putin, Kim, Xi, and other dictators, who have literally put bounties upon your head. China, Russia, Iran, and N Korea are runaway nuclear time bombs, thanks to Trump's bungling. Our allies no longer trust us. How could you possibly continue to support such a pirate ship of undisciplined fools... in the name of Patriotism?

This is very typical tRumptarded (CR) YT rhetoric that I deliberately trigger, provoke, insult, and shame in these comments sections all day long, every day. 'Trumptard traitors' swarm all over CNBC and CNN's WH news briefings, taking cheap potshots against Jen Psaki and President Biden. You just read from their same script, nearly word for word.
They don't even watch the briefings but are only there to drop their '...Brandon' turds and split before their stink hits the fan.
Trumotards either don't care or are too stupid to realize the harm they're doing to our country by posting such negative anarchistic rhetoric on the world's stage. They're constantly pushing the BS about 'Potatohead doesn't even know <blah, blah, blah>", yet none of them can tell you what's going on in the real world, beyond their echo chamber.
They seriously believe that they are saving America by sabotaging our elected leader, without even considering the fact that he is currently confronting Putin, Xi, Kim, and Iran, who would never allow such disrespect among their citizens. Their tRumptarded BS plays directly into the hands of dictators who use them to point out how weak our POTUS is and that our democracy is obviously a failure. /smh

Ben... If you want viewers to focus upon what you're saying, then stop being distracted by whatever you keep looking at to the left of your camera. Is it something going on outside your window or are you watching yourself in a mirror, while ranting to the world?
Eye contact with your audience is important. JS
BTW, just as an FYI, I'm also getting burnt out on watching your numerous daily videos. You're all over my YT home page and you've over-exposed yourself with repetitious rants, with diminishing returns. So, now I'm avoiding them and opting for other MT presenters, instead.
You're a great, hard-working guy, who means well in the defense of US. So this isn't a personal criticism, but is intended as constructive consumer feedback. "Less is more."
BR
TRUMP IS A TRAITOR!!!
LET'S GO JACK!!!

"Oh f'ing woe are we, it's a little more difficult to do transformative than we expected. Our POTUS' approval ratings are slipping and we wonder why " smh
Gee, do ya think it might have something to do with 100% of one side within an evenly divided Congress + 2 DINOs are refusing to compromise, instead of serving the needs of our nation?
President Biden wrote the 'damn' bill, split it into one no-brainer for Republicans and another no-brainer for Dems, but both had to pass together, before he would sign either into law.
Neither side will get wat they want, unless they're willing to approve the other's. Republicants would be blocked from gutting a single bill of progressive policies, making it a right wing conservative only bill. Brilliant!
The old school, well seasoned Congressman knows every trick in the book and has a few of his own left up his sleeve. You think that he didn't expect the price tag of his bill to get whittled down in Congress, think again, Folks.
The conservatives will brag to their constituents about how they've succeeded in cutting spending, while President Biden will be happy because he still got everything he wanted.... if it weren't for the 2 DINO holdouts putting personal wealth above our nation. smh
I'm really sick and tired of hearing the left wing media kicking President Biden to the curb, before he has even had a decent chance. He's already gotten us out of Afghanistan, with minimal casualties. His amazingly fast distributions of vaccines would have eliminated COVID by now, IF people would cooperate. His ARP stimulus has been very effective in keeping child poverty reduced by 40%, families from being evicted, and our economy recovering faster than any other country. WTF, MSM?!

@truthmatters4ever247 IOW, you would sell our nation's democracy to a lying, cheating, mafioso don, the traitor who incited the attack upon our Capitol because he refused to respect We the People's choice, for the sake of $1.50 per gallon of gas.
Why are you so willfully ignorant of the fact that the world has gone through a pandemic since $2.00/ gallon.
Why are you blaming President Biden, after he has been doing everything within his power to reduce gas prices, including sell off millions of barrels from our national oil reserves?
Look at the state of China's lock downs, compared to US. That's where we would be if tRump were still gaslighting US.
Wah! Wah! Wah! You would betray our nation, just because your pathetic life isn't perfect.... as if it has ever been.
Why don't you STFU and respect the majority's choice? We chose Biden to lead US for 4 years. No amount of your malicious whining is going to change that.
You're only disgracing our nation here in front of the world. Putin, Xi, and Kim appreciate you proving that our democracy is a failure. They simply throw dissidents like you in prison.

BFS!! Redfield is just another incompetent, brown-nosed Trump appointee, assigned to head the CDC in March 2018.
How can businesses open piecemeal, one state at a time, unless their borders are completely closed? That means no interstate shipping of vital supplies by online retail venders like Amazon, Ebay, and grocery stores.
COVID-19 is in all states, but there is insufficient testing to determine how many are infected, much less who they are. It silently spreads amongst asymptomatic adults and children. IOW, no one knows how extensive the problem is, much less how to end the crisis.
There's no known preventative vaccination nor medical cure, so STOP THE BS OPTIMISTIC HAPPY TALK AND TELL THE TRUTH!!

These GQP Congessmen are literally F'ing insane. Their divisive rhetoric and blatant lies are irresponsible and beneath the dignity of the office they hold. Instead of solving any problems, they only know how to nit pick and criticize by resorting to outrageous exaggerations.
Trump left the US in this mess, but these dishonest POS politicians blame every problem on the Biden administration, who has only been in office for 6 months. During that time, every single bill as met 100% Republicant opposition in the Senate. So, how is Biden the cause of our woes?
They only know how to point fingers at Dems, demonizing over half of US voters. But, the historic records say otherwise. Reagan's trickle down economy only transfers taxpayer revenues to the filthy rich, who don't even need it. That's why our infrastructure is crumbling, the national debt has grown beyond imagination, and poor folks can't afford higher education to become more employable.
Clinton handed GWBush a balanced budget, which he only poured into a 20 year $5 Trillion ME war, without even taking out Bin Laden.
Obama had to abandon his 2008 campaign to rescue Wall Street, homeowners, the auto industry, and healthcare. Trump followed with removing Wall Street oversight and gave them $2 Trillion of taxpayer revenues. Now, our economy is on its knees and Biden has to come to the rescue yet again.
Yes, Biden's stimulus package costs $1.9 Trillion, but it's paid for by enforcing the existing IRS laws.
Republicants only know how to talk trash, but have absolutely no ideas regarding how to govern responsibly. That's why they go to kiss tRump's ring and kowtow to his whims. smh

@Jasper Holdem First of all, you don't need to copy and paste my comments, because I know exactly what I wrote and it had absolutely nothing to do with color nor politics.
Secondly, my initial question wasn't addressed to you. It was intended for Pikachu, from Switzerland, who could honestly answer my question.
Thirdly, "MUSIC that promotes murdering people not like yourself" is an obvious racial reference to "(the player of the video game)" being a black kid listening to rap music.
Fourthly, "people not like yourself and police!" is an obvious reference to black people who are sick and tired of watching "people who look like them" being gunned down by the police.
Fifthly: I'm an old white man, so I have no idea what black kids play, nor what they're listening to while playing it. But, I'm not so ignorant that I can't see your racist undertones concealed within your comment. IMO, that makes you a white supremacist. You're clearly a strong advocate for 2nd amendment gun rights. That makes you a (most likely extremist) right wing gun head.
Finally, I never said "ALL the illegal guns found on kids are not the white kids", you did. In fact, I never mentioned illegal guns at all, did I?
Now, FO and stop trolling us, you obvious "extreme right wing, gun head white supremacist".

tRump has taught his Q-nuts how to grift $Mil donations out of hyperbolic, BS crazy, anti-government, hate speech. These are the representatives for all of the sociopathic misfits, losers, and malcontents of the ignorant folks who trust con artists who peddle he same superstitious faith, instead of trusting life long public servants, who have sincerely dedicated their lives and careers to our nation.
MTG isn't this stupid. She can't even spew her BS with a straight face. She's only shooting her mouth off for attention and profit, just like Limbaugh, Jones, tRump, Boebart, Jordan, and their dirty mafioso don, the traitor. All con artists. All anarchists. All un-American and disgraces to our nation.

For 2 years, the cowardly Garland turned a blind eye to mafioso don's insurrection attempt, treason with the Taliban, and blatant criminal behavior, even after the House Jan 6th committee did the DoJ's work of conducting investigations, hundreds of sworn witness testimonies, compiled their overwhelming evidence into 3 productions of publicly televised hearings.
Yet, Garland cowered in silence, until after tRump's 'loyalist' seditious conspirators gained control of the people's House with the sole intentions of sabotaging Congress and the righteous agenda of our elected POTUS.
Garland did absolutely nothing until after tRump forced his hand by announcing another campaign for the Oval office. Only then, Garland bravely took action by delegating the responsibility to Jack Smith, to avoid jeopardizing his own family.
No thanks to Garland's too little and too late performance of duty, our nation's democracy is now being jeopardized by a wannabe dictator. So, Garland is prosecuting Apple instead, as if that's America's #1 threat.
I'm retired IT, still spend most of my days online, but have never owned an Apple product and never will. My #1 concern is tRumpism destroying the fabric of our society, with lies, violence, racism, and moral corruption.
Garland has enabled tRump to the point of being complicit in sabotaging everything America has stood for over the past 1 1/2 century. He is a weak, timid mouse in a man's body, who trembles like a leaf during interviews. Garland was the absolute worst choice for AG, responsible for taking down criminals and traitors, especially a mafioso mob's ruthless don.

We need a POTUS, who can re-unite these divided United States.
Biden already pulled out of Afghanistan, despite tRump setting him up to take the fall, while under impeachment.
We need to honor our commitments with our allies, as Biden has been doing, without jeopardizing our own troops. Grant it, Netanyahu has become a mass murderer of innocent civilians and needs to be held accountable.
America was at its greatest, when we defended Europe against Hitler's Nazi regime. Our support of Ukraine's defense against Putin's ruthless invasion is no different. Biden has rallied our allies throughout the world, strengthened the NATO alliance, and inflicted crippling sanctions upon Russia's economy.
President Biden never started any of these wars, including the failures that Bush created that only plunged the Middle East into chaos.
Yes, we all want global peace. But don't let perfection be the enemy of common sense. tRump is nothing more than a 2-bit con man, already a convicted 34 count felon of fraud over concealing his whoremongering from voters, charged with espionage over stealing thousands of top secret nuclear defense docs to sell for personal profit on the global black market of our enemies, plus currently in DC court over inciting the Capitol riot to steal our 2020 election. Vance is nothing more than tRump's spineless lackie.
If you MAGA fools can't see the hypocrisy, then you shouldn't be telling voters who we need for POTUS.

NPC Non Binary Demigender Pansexual Two Spirit You seem to be under the misimpression that only Democrat women have had abortions. Roe v Wade was decided by a nonpartisan Supreme Court decision, which made abortions legal, based upon the 2nd amendment stating that "no laws shall be made by Congress with regards to religion, sex..."
FYI, prior to that women were still getting abortions in back allies in non-sterile conditions with coat hangers and lye soap. Is that what you want to return to? At least, now abortions are being performed within a professional surgical environment. Of course, the sooner, the better, with regards to humanely aborting the fetus. Yet, Rethuglicans insist upon delaying the process as long as possible, with consultations, sonograms, and red tape just to impose their beliefs upon the situation. Their entire involvement has negative results.
Everything about your divisive language (butchers of the leftist death cult, snowflake, etc) indicates the mindset of a right wing Trumptard, not a centrist Independent. As your alias implies, you don't really know who you are, nor which side to support. You'll jump into bed with anyone who suits your fancy, right? What gives you the right to judge pregnant women and to force your ideological opinions upon anyone else? A woman's womb is not for others to control. Only she knows what kind of livelihood she can provide or not. No woman intentionally aborts a child, without extremely compelling reasons. Who are you to force her to go full term, then steal the baby away upon a stranger's behalf at the moment of birth?
Furthermore, if religion is constitutionally removed from the scenario, then humans are no different than any other animal. Do you kill other sentient animals for your consumption? What about all of the species of the rainforests that are being mindlessly destroyed, just to raise cattle? Because of that, I haven't eaten beef for 25 years. So, don't try to make any holier than thou arguments against me, you self-righteous hypocrite.

@prav777 What gives you the right to speak on behalf of everyone, only to justify your own racist attitudes? In case you haven't noticed, innocent black men are being gunned down for nothing more than being in white neighborhoods. FYI, during the '80s, I attended several parties in black neighborhoods, where I was the only white person there. But, when I revisited some of those black friends in 1990, I was advised to not walk down their street alone. One was visibly uncomfortable with me being inside his house and asked, "After all of these years, why did you call on me?" "Because, I have always considered you to be a friend", was my answer.
Racists never speak candidly, but everyone understand their messaging. Trump throws it out for everyone to hear, then walks it back with, "Some folks say..." "Many would say..." "THEY SEND US THEIR RAPISTS AND DRUG SMUGGLERS, but some may be very fine people."
Upon reading the rest of your BS, it is painfully obvious that you are racist, bigoted, chauvinistic, and homophobic. Every single one of your attitudes are against the Constitution, upon which our nation stands. That, along with your support of Trump, makes you nothing more than a Trumptard traitor and the worst excuse for civilized humanity.

@birddog7492 Don't care about right wing editing taken out of context. I know Joe Biden and what he stands for. He's a good, honest, decent man, who has dedicated his life to serving our nation in an honorable manner. "You can't shit the snowman."
Google Last I heard, PA's economy was based upon coal mining, not oil or gas. Power stations have been converting from coal to natural gas for several years. It's all about the future of the planet, nothing to do with Biden, except Republicans value wealth over the environment, EPA, PCA, and proven science.
BTW, Biden supports fracking, but only as a temporary measure to reduce pollution and ramp up sustainable energy.
BTW, China is kicking our butts with sustainable products. Their communist government has paid their industries to go full steam ahead, while the USA is debating whether to even enter the arena.

@prav777 "Racism will exist as long as races exist" I said those exact same words ~2 years ago. But, that has nothing to do with EVERYONE being racist. You are only speaking from your own myopic perspective. WTF do you think you are to tell YT strangers who they are? You don't have a clue about what's in my mind.
"I would rather you fight in places where enslavement actually happens to this day with black folks in northern Africa and elsewhere" Yeah, you would like nothing more than for me to FO somewhere else, wouldn't you? FYI, I'm a registered US voter, who is concerned with what's going on within my own country and defending it from Trumptard traitors, like you. Besides, I obviously have no voice anywhere else in the world and it would be wasted effort. What a F'ing stupid suggestion!
"Compared to the s__t that happens around the world, the crap that happens here is nothing." Since Trump's term, we have rioting in our streets, blacks being murdered on national TV, raging forest fires, 225,000 COVID deaths, a collapsing economy with huge national debt, the worst unemployment in over 1/2 a century, hyperbolic political divisions, anarchists undermining our government, yet you believe that all is well on the home front. JFC!
Yes, the cartels have either killed or bribed government officials and their military to look the other way. That's exactly why we should be supporting their officials with military action against terrorism, not looking the other way. The problem is in their countries, so that's what needs to be addressed to stop the refugee caravans from coming to our borders.
At this very minute, Trump has hijacked the Republican party and is ripping off taxpayers for billions of dollars. Trump's administration is the epitome of political corruption, yet you are too ignorant to see it..

For the past 8 years, I have been debunking MAGA's lies in these comments.
For the past 3 years, I have been defending Biden's administration and the ruthless racial, homophobic, and personal attacks against KJP, underneath her briefings. Often, I was asked, "Who is paying you to defend Biden?"
Yesterday, I did the same on behalf of the MSNBC panel, covering the RNC's convention, against the mob of MAGA trolls, by asking them, " Who is paying you to betray our nation?"
To my dismay, MSNBC censured my comments and blocked me from continuing.
How am I supposed to actively oppose Project 2025 and a wannabe dictator, who is leading in the polls?

@BluePlanet470 Obviously you haven't read the MAGA conspiracy lies, straight out of their X conspiracy echo chambers, as I have.
You haven't seen them disgracing our nation, in front of the world, beneath the official White House Briefings.
MAGA NEVER engages in serious policy debates, because they know nothing about this administration's policies.
They're all about worshiping their 'divine chosen one, who has been sent by god to save America', (their own words), instead of reality.
They are only about personal attacks against their fellow US citizens, just as you have done to me.
Tell me about irony. Then, tell me why your against Biden's policies, if you can.

Right! We need less experienced leaders who don't understand basic civics and Constitutional laws. Let's be led by blind faith, right wing extremists, and con men who care more about profits than people.
/sic
We've already experienced that during the previous administration. "Drain the swamp" = Destroy our government. "Stop the steal" = Overthrow the will of the majority. "Cut taxes" = You're on your own. It's all BS!
Now, our nation is on its knees, extremely divided, and morally bankrupt. Moscow Mitch and his GQP obstructionist party must go. So must nut jobs like MTG, Ted Cruz, Jim Jordan, Linseed Graham, and all of the other GQP tRumptard toads.
I'm glad that we have an experienced POTUS, who actually understands the meaning of American greatness and it is not about military power nor a BS "America First" agenda, which is all about greed and authoritarianism.

Everything Bloomberg says makes perfect sense. Finally, a reasonable candidate, with in depth understanding of most issues and the moral character to address them effectively with compassion. I couldn't disagree with anything he said in this interview. This is the POTUS that America needs to lead us out of our present political funk.😎

@roylukenbill2412 Listen, Trumptard! Trump is nothing more than a wannabe mob boss con man, who is using ignorant people like you to conduct a coup against our nation.
If reelected and the House majority falls into Republican hands, he will succeed in becoming America's 1st dictator, or as his ego prefers, 'King of the World', with his heirs poised to inherit 'his' crown and 'kingdom'.
In other words, for the sake of clarity, he is conning folks like you into conspiring to overthrow our government, without firing a shot. That literally makes you a traitor, not the Dems who are fighting to defend our Constitutional law of Congressional checks and balances.
For the sake of our nation, PLEASE PULL YOUR HEAD OUT OF TRUMP'S CESSPOOL AND READ THE WRITING ON THE WALL!!!

@iSAYsmartSTUFF "Time is everything"
"Time is of the essence"
"No one can turn back the hands of Time."
"A Time to live, a Time to die, a Time to laugh, a Time to die."
'A proper Time and place for all things."
'The biological clock is ticking..."
'Don't be late."
'Time to eat, Time to sleep, Time to work, Time to relax, Time to learn, Time to teach, Time for love, Time to procreate, Time to retire, Time to lay down and die."
These are all age old common sayings that everyone has repeated and heard, without understanding the underlying meaning.
Ancient civilizations have worshipped the sun, moon, and stars, in order to know when to sow and reap their harvests for survival. But, those are only the clocks, measuring the eternal passage of Time.
Survival depends upon obeying those signs of Time.
Ignoring those signs of Time only result in inevitable failure and death.
Time is god over all living entities in the Universe.
Yin and Yang are the opposing hands of Time, feeding on each other's forces, from the smallest atomic particles to the orbiting celestial entities of the Universe (including our current political opposing forces). But, that is another Universal truth, beyond this teaching.

@rodneyboehner3007 If you were not so ignorant, then you would know that President Biden already has given his personal public address to the American people, regarding 9/11, COVID vaccinations, and other topics.
Bush was POTUS during the 9/11 attack. Kinda pertinent, and appropriate for this occasion, but you are only looking for BS reasons to smear our POTUS, aren't you?
FYI, our military Generals and leaders are very proud to have followed President Biden's orders to end the war in Afghanistan. On the other hand, their pretty pissed at traitor tRump, who incited the Capitol riot. They had a pact to resign, before being commanded to execute a military coup, so tRump tried a soft coup with AG Barr, who resigned. Then, tRump tried it again with his Acting AG, who also refused.
IF you are a US citizen, then you need to support Constitutional law and our elected POTUS. Otherwise, you're just another tRumptard traitor, an enemy of the state.

@stephj9378 Pot, meet kettle. My mentality is just fine, thank you very much. You've been conned by the don, Steph.
He sold out the voice of the majority, just to cling onto his executive immunity, aka 'Get out of jail free card'. tRump knew that he had broken serious laws and would be headed to prison.
Everything that the don has done since losing the election has only been to save his own sorry ass.
Now, all of the evidence is being exposed about tRump's numerous desperate attempts for a soft coup with the DoJ, a military style martial law, conspiracies with congressmen, tax fraud, etc. The don's rap sheet is growing every day and he's taking everyone else in the Republicant GQP down with him.
TRUMP'S A TRAITOR!
LOCK HIM UP!!!

This out of touch, MAGA and Evangelical motivated authoritarian SCOTUS has gone completely rogue, while un-Constitutionally legislating from their bench.
#1: Pandora's ghost guns are already out of the box and that genie will never be put back into their legal bottle. (yeah, mixed metaphors)
#2: What could possibly go wrong with submitting ID card verification to online porn sites? Have they no clue about hackers, who would undoubtedly sell those IDs?
#3: Have these so called 'justices' learned nothing after Dobbs, regarding sticking their noses into personal matters, such as denying trans rights? (personally, I also disagree with kids' whimsically altering their genders, as if they need to participate in some identification fad)
#4: If Mexico can sue S&W for gun trafficking, then that opens the flood gate for families of mass shooting victims to sue over the sales of ARs, as well.
#5: This court will do nothing about states' election laws that would restrict MAGA's interference nor Project 2025's mandate to replace government employees with MAGA 'loyalists', who have already been caught cheating with fake Electors. The Electoral college is obsolete and needs to be abolished. So should gerrymandering. One person, one vote... a REAL democracy.

@markcicero7931 No. It was tRump who tried to extort a BS phony press announcement that he was investigating Hunter. "But, I just need you to do me a favor." he conditioned the military defense systems upon. Then tRump fired the US ambassador, Yovanivich (?) because she wouldn't do State business with Rudy.
The constant reruns of the crazy-assed, panicking Afghans trying to stop a cargo plane was only the first day of unexpected chaos, which was immediately under control thanks to excellent diplomacy to enlist the Taliban to provide perimeter security, instead of plunging our troops into fighting an Afghan coup. Tht whole shit-show was orchestrated by tRump and Pompeo, including the Taliban's swift defeat of the Afghan government and their security forces, who had no choice but to immediately concede and flee for their lives.
President Biden was simply stating the fact that the chaos was dealt with effectively.
Yet, the chaotic scene keeps on looping What cover are you talking about? The left leaning MSM have been sounding like Faux Spews.
Look it. This rewriting history BS is all fun, but what exactly is your point? You don't give a damn about those Afghans. But, that's all you can complain about with this administration? BTW, during EVERY 3 weeks, an average 1,800 US citizens are murdered by gun violence in their own neighborhoods. Biden only lost 13 US troops in the middle of a terrorist infested war zone in a 3rd world shit-hole country.
Why aren't you decrying the 30,000 gun deaths every year?
Why aren't you supporting our elected leader, who saved our nation from another term of blatantly corrupt tRumpism? Have you no morals? Are you even a US citizen?
Biden is exactly the POTUS we need during these times of social turmoil, COVID, and global challenges like saving our planet.

Robert, how many times did you have to remind Katie of how naive she is after the impeachment trial? Millennials are so opinionated.🙄 BFD, Warren abused her womanhood to execute a rehearsed sexist attack against Bloomberg, as if he were personally the subject of those NDAs, when he admitted that he only told an offensive joke. It was not appropriate for Mike to break legally binding NDAs between 3rd party employees.
Yes, Bloomberg knew that he was walking into the lion's den, but he did it anyway. He didn't go there to attack his Dem sivals, he is there to attack Trump. As a seasoned billionaire and effective team leader, Mike knows that he can't use his power to punch down on people. He has enough class to communicate respectfully.
The moderators were allowing a free for all gang bang against Mike. At one point, I counted 4 attacks from 4 different candidates, before Mike was given an opportunity to defend himself. It was yet another shameless display of MSNBC bias.
But, here's the kicker, Folks. Trump is launching a $1billion propaganda campaign, called 'the Death Star'.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YjcsUNf1dU&t=23s
Now, there's a $1billion annie, just to campaign in the general election against Trump. WTF is Bernie's plan to deal with that?
Bloomberg's campaign is guided by polling data. IOW, he is catering to the statistical majority of voters, regardless of party affiliation. He's running for POTUS, not PODNC. So, he will promise what the majority want to hear. Without special interest influences, Mike's campaign promises are his words of bond. If elected, Mike will serve the people and eliminate Citizens United, political corruption by superPACs and lobbyists, as well as continuing his work against climate change and all the other progressive policies.That's true democracy w/o corruption, not oligarchy.
Mike Gets It Done!
BTW, Trump is is a phony, self-serving, 3rd rate knockoff of don Corleone, complete with the Cabinet mob of henchmen, the crooked lawyer, and the corrupted Republican Congressional politicians. They are traitors, attempting a coup d'etat against our nation. If re-elected, Trump will become our 1st dictator with no term limits. His heirs are already poised to inherit his crown and kingdom.
Mike is only in this fight to stop Trump. He is the anti-Trump, patriotically defending our democracy. Please don't tar them with the same brush, simply because they both have money. Are all poor people the same?

@jonnynice8366 Who have I criticized on a personal level, Trumptards? What is more deserving of criticism than political ignorance? Is it not the duty of voters to scrutinize politicians? Are we not supposed to hold them to their campaign promises and oath of office to uphold the laws and our Constitution?
Ignorant voters gave us a lying self-serving POS as POTUS. Trump is an embarrassment on every level and is ruining our nation. But, his trained mob think it is all just fun and games, while spewing hatred towards fellow patriots, chanting "Send her back!", "Lock her up!" etc. This is disgraceful hyper-partisan tribalism.
Admittedly, the MSM displayed its true colors during the last 'debate'. I never believed it until I saw it with my own eyes. On the other hand, the first step towards dictatorship is to discredit and out message the opposition media outlets.
Yesterday, I was watching an alternative, until he said,"Well if the MSM won't let me have Bernie, then I'm just going to vote for Trump. Then, he suggested that his viewers shold watch RT and Russian outlets for the 'truth'. Putin is laughing his a$$ off at US.

@edwardcuevas6974 BS. No matter how you slice it, the WS, software whiz kids, and data driven billionaires, with accountants aren't paying their fair share because of decades worth of Republicans' BS Reaganomics, providing them with countless loopholes and write-offs... no inheritance tax for their privileged brats, for one example.
Republicans give billionaires tax breaks. The billionaires return the favor by "investing" an unlimited percentage of their savings back into right wing super PACs, thanks to Citizens United. "Corporations became people".
Now, Republicans serve corporations, instead of the needs of their constituents.
It's a feedback loop, powered by the working class tax revenues to the greedy filthy rich.
Those IRS is already so poorly manned that they can't enforce the existing tax laws. Those much needed additional agents will fund their own wages by tracking down unpaid taxes, fraudulent filings, under the table transfers of money, and billions of dollars hidden in tax havens by billionaire tax dodgers, just like the tRump org's.
The spending on social safety nets, healthcare, and education lifts up the downtrodden and neglected onto their feet, puts them on the path to employment, making them respectable, independent, taxpaying citizens.
Every dollar towards domestic programs feeds the recipient, passes from their hands to grocery stores, those employees, and the shareholders, who benefit and are taxed with every transaction.
That's what Biden means by building the economy from the bottom up. EVERYONE benefits STARTING with the most needy, not welfare for the most greedy.

@rw9573 BFS!!
I remember tRump betraying our troops by freeing 5,000 ISIS, Al Qaeda, and Taliban terrorists from a Pakistani prison.
I remember your traitor tRump promising them that they could have Afghanistan back, during Biden's term in office IF they wouldn't attack US troops before the 2020 election, just for his own political edge, while being impeached.
I remember that our military had already evacuated Bagram Airbase, during the middle of the night, without locals even noticing.
But, instead of declaring, "'Mission accomplished", I remember Biden ordering our military to use the logistical advantages of Karzai Airport to evacuate125,000 western civilians and our Afghan contractors to protect them from being beheaded after the August 1 deadline.
tRump had absolutely no plan nor intentions of saving those allies. In fact, I remember Steven Miller holding up the processing of their SIVs, which complicated their evacuations.
I remember Biden successfully negotiating with Qatar o serve as safe half-way point for processing SIVs.
I remember how Biden's excellent diplomacy changed the Taliban from our enemies into our allies, who willingly provided a security perimeter around Karzai Airport after the panic crazed Afghans flooding onto the runway,, during only the 1st cargo plane's takeoff (which has been mischaracterized on continuous MSM news loops over the past 2 years, as their only evidence of Biden's 'failed evacuation').
I remember the Taliban escorting westerners to assist with their evacuations.
I remember those 13 US troops being forewarned of an "imminent attack upon Abbey Gate" yet they bravely chose to stand their posts to allow British troops to usher in their civilians to be evacuated during a Taliban coup in the middle of a terrorist battleground.
I remember the 2.500 US citizens who are murdered by gun violence EVERY 3 WEEKS IN THEIR OWN 'SAFE' NEIGHBORHOODS. BIDEN'S AFGHAN WITHWRAWAL WAS A HUGE SUCCESS, BY COMPARISON.
I remember tRump disrespectfully refusing to even show his respects at the return of our fallen troops.
Yes, I remember President Biden looking at his watch TO MARK THE EXACT ARRIVAL TIME of our fallen troops. But, you tRumptarded mind readers have to make up your own BS reasons!
I remember the past 7 years worth of tRump and ignorant Republicant Congress members broadcasting to the world that our southern border is wide open and even staging Faux demonstrations of illegals crossing during the middle of the night (but being apprehended by BP off camera), while refusing to do their jobs of passing Comprehansive Immigration Reform legislation over several decades.
Guess what, tRumptard? THE WORLD WATCHES US TV, THAT'S EVEN TRANSLATED INTO THEIR OWN NATIVE LANGUAGES.
Republicans are deliberately causing the border crisis, refusing to stop it, then blaming it on Dem administrations.
I remember the baby food shortage, which was caused by a factory being shut down, because its products were contaminated. Then, Biden had supplies shipped in from Ireland to SOLVE the problem.
BFS!! The USA had NO fuel shortages. Europe had fuel shortages, after sanctioning Russian oil supplies. Biden SOLVED those shortages by negotiating with OPEC to increase their supply to the global market. Then, Biden released US oil reserves to be sold onto the global market AT A PROFIT THAT REDUCES OUR NATIONAL DEBT, after US oil corp (who have been gouging US customers) replaces it.
I remember 2 years worth of global pandemic shutdowns that created supply chain disruptions, which caused global inflation, FAR GREATER THAN THE USA's.
Under President Biden's leadership, the USA economy and inflation is better than any other developed country in the world.
I remember tRump inciting the Jan 6th insurrection to overthrow our fair election.
I remember tRump's BS tRump University scam.
I remember the tRump family's BS charity scam.
I remember tRump being responsible for Jamal Kashoggi's dismemberment.
I remember Jared being paid $2Billion in blood money from MBS.
I remember tRump's $2Trilion tax break to his filthy rich cronies.
I remember tRump reneging on JCPOA, which allowed Iran's nuclear weapon's program to resume, instead of remaingin compliant until 2024.
I remember tRump's middle of the night phone call to Erdogan to undercut Russia's sales of jet aircraft, then the POS pulled our tRoops off the N Syrian battlfields against ISIS, leaving our Kurdish allies to be slaughtered by Turkey.
I remember tRump pulling out of PCA, which set back anit-climate change efforts by years.
I remember the entire UN counsel laughing in tRump's face, when he started bragging on himself at the podium.
I remember tRump's attempt to use vital military aide to extort Ukraine's President Zelenski to make a phoney press announcement about Hunter being investigated. "It doesn't even need to be true. Just tell that to the press."
I remember tRump's Big Lie, Giuliani's 60 failed court cases, Sydney Powell's conviction over her Dominion voting machine lies, multiple election audits, Cyber Ninja's BS fraudit, and tRump's attempt to intimidate Georgia's SoS Raffensperger.
I remember tRump stealing thousands of Top Secrete Nuclear weapons documents from the White House to sell on the global black market to the highest bidders from a cloud server.
REMEMBER THIS, TRUMPTARDS:
TRUMP'S A TRAITOR!!
LET'S GO JACK!!
LOCK THEM UP!!
MAGA, BIDEN!!

Seriously? You're comment is so nebulous that it is impossible to tell which 'side' you're on.
tRumptards believe that there actually was a coup on 11/3/20, rather than admit their demigod and master lost the election, fair and square.
Assuming that your 'morons' are Dems, then they are already aware of tRump's failed coup conspiracy with the DoJ, last December, which is why Barr resigned. Had tRump's coup succeeded, then we would be living under the thumb of an authoritarian dictator, especially after he would have eliminated term limits, which he had previously suggested and as all dictators do.
As it is, Congressional Republicants think we're living in an oligarchy, with tRump being their puppet master. But, he is losing power and credibility every time he stabs his used and abused in the back.
As AG Garland and the Jan 6th Commission close in on tRump's mob, politicians are beginning to distance themselves from the traitor.

The 'godfather' summoned all of the Congressional Republicans into the Oval Office as soon as he arrived. Trump understands that 'every an has his price' and has the resources to pay it. Obviously, he gave them an offer they couldn't refuse. His 'embrace' sealed their oath of allegiance to him, above party and nation. That's why he has absolute control over the Senate and House Republicans. Woe to anyone who breaks their vow by not holding the Trump Party line. Yes, I said Trump Party because he owns the Republicans.
This is the only possible explanation for their shameless behavior throughout the impeachment proceedings. This is also the only explanation of McConnell's public statement that he would follow the White House counsel's guidance and that there is 0 chance of impeachment passing the Senate. This is illegal and unconstitutional.
After the backlash of a failed impeachment, Trump will win the election, Dems will lose the House and a vindicated Trump will be unstoppable. Within only 4 years, Trump and his motley mob of Cabinet henchmen will have successfully conducted a coup against our democracy, without firing a shot. He has already floated ending term limits and is poised to become America's first dictator. Of course, his ego would prefer the title of 'King of the World.' Then, his heirs in waiting could inherit his 'kingdom'. Bada-bing. Just like that.
You think I'm crazy? Who's gonna stop him? His only check on power is the Dem controlled House and they have already failed, simply because everyone dismissed it as only hyper-partisanship. Guess again. Tick-tock.......(crickets chirping)

The 'godfather' summoned all of the Congressional Republicans into the Oval Office as soon as he arrived. Trump understands that 'every man has his price' and has the resources to pay it. Obviously, he gave them 'an offer they couldn't refuse'. His 'embrace' sealed their oath of allegiance to him, above party and nation. That's why he has absolute control over the Senate and House Republicans. Woe to anyone who breaks their vow by not holding the Trump Party line. Yes, I said Trump Party because now he owns the Republicans.
This is the only possible explanation for their shameless behavior throughout the impeachment proceedings. One by one, Collins and others went to ridiculous lengths to deny indisputable testimonies from multiple reputable witnesses, blow distracting smoke screens, and spew outrageous lies in defense of Trump. No respectable person would stoop that low, without coercion. How is it possible that not one Republiturd could muster the moral backbone to vote 'yes', while being aware of this administration's corruption?
Furthermore, McConnell's public statement that he would follow the White House counsel's guidance and that there is 0 chance of impeachment passing the Senate is complicate, illegal, and unconstitutional, because it violates the separation of powers and oversight over the Executive branch.
Under the circumstances, Pelosi has no choice but to withdraw the articles. She has exposed Republican and Trump's corruption, which is the best she could hope for, under the circumstances. So, the impeachment is dead. But, instead of nebulous charges of 'high crimes and misdemeanors', she should have gone full bore with all guns blazing, including blatant violations of the emollients clause, deploying troops into Saudia Arabia w/o congressional approval along with many others.
Republican states have already cancelled their primaries, so Trump won't be challenged from within 'his' own party. After the backlash of a failed impeachment, Trump will undoubtedly win the election against the DNC's weak field of candidates, Dems will obviously lose the House and a vindicated Trump will be unstoppable.
Within only 4 years, Trump and his motley mob of Cabinet henchmen will have successfully conducted a coup (which he deliberately projects onto Dems) against our nation, without firing a shot. He has already discredited the MSM (as all dictators do), floated ending term limits (testing his opposition, as he often does prior to commitment) and is poised to become America's first dictator. Of course, his ego would prefer the title of 'King of the World.' Then, his heirs in waiting could inherit his 'kingdom'. Meanwhile he can join his coveted club of world dictators, such as Putin, Kim, King Salman, and others. All of this fits Trump's MO and explains his behavior on the international stage, doesn't it?
You think I'm crazy? Who's gonna stop him, now that he's already over half way there? Trump's only check on power is the Dem controlled House and they have already failed, simply because everyone dismissed it as only hyper-partisan politics from the left, instead of blatant corruption on the right. 😒
OORR.......
3 term NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg gallops into the race on his mighty white warhorse, wearing an impenetrable shiny silver coat of arms, wielding his huge sword of unlimited campaign funds. Unencumbered with petty DNC bickering, MSM sidelining, nor partisan politics Bloomberg easily thrashes Trump next year.
The DNC is forced to rally behind him, along with bipartisan voters. So, Dems gain the Senate majority and hold the House. Relieved Republicans can stop holding their noses and support Bloomberg's monetary policies. Washington DC and our nation reunites.
Trump and his mob go to prison, where they belong.
International relationships are restored, America returns to the Paris Climate accord, our economy stabilizes with a balanced budget and national pride returns.👏🤩🥳
The choice is yours, America.😎

I understand exactly how you feel. I'll provide you with an answer to both of your questions, because they precisely describe someone I've been following on YouTube... Tulsi Gabbard. Here she is, for those who don't know her:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mw1w-1Z0g8
I may be a hermit, but I'm very aware of what's going on in the world, especially within our political system, including the impeachment hearings and Dem debates.
Everything I see is disgraceful: 2016 Russian collusion, DNC debate cheating for Clinton, disillusioned & brainwashed voters electing a self-serving silver-spoon-fed pu$$y-grabbing phony billionaire wannabe mob boss as POTUS in the misguided belief that he gives a damn about them. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?
Congressional Republicans have obviously sold their souls to the devil, because they are serving Trump over party and country.
The top 2% got a tax break, which they invested straight into Wall Street, which has artificially inflated the markets, so everything is fine.
We're losing climate change regulations, safe drinking water, public lands to oil, and women's rights.
40,000 senseless gun deaths per year.
Income inequality, outsourced jobs, unaffordable housing & healthcare, genetically modified food from patented roundup-ready seeds, homelessness, locked-up refugee children, private for-profit prisons, needless police shootings, racist law enforcement and judicial system.
Iran is enriching weapons grade uranium, because we reneged on as multi-lateral agreement. Russia is invading Ukraine, so Trump withholds their anti-tank missiles, for personal gain (mob-like extortion). Without notice, we abandoned anti-ISIS fighters to be slaughtered by Turkey. Russia have replaced our military, so all of they reap the benefits of all our sacrifices. We are subsidizing US weapons factories in Saudi Arabia (9/11 terrorists), which is literally going to backfire on us. N Korea is developing guided missiles, as we pull out of S Korea. We are in a trade war with China, which could tank our economy. Trump repealed the sequester, so our national debt has increased 30% $800B-$1.2T.
Most of these things have happened during or because of Trump's administration.
BUT, YOU KNOW WHAT REALLY PISSES ME OFF?
All along, I've been blaming Republicans Thinking that Dems were more honest, compassionate, law abiding, public servants working for the majority... until now.
Remember Tulsi Gabbard, that patriotic public servant I previously mentioned? She's running a grassroots bipartisan platform campaign for POTUS on a Democratic ticket. Tulsi wants to get big money out of our political system... no Citizens United, superPACs, dark money, revolving doors, etc. Clean elections putting an end to political corruption, which is great! Right?
Not according to the DNC and MSM. So, they have been actively smearing the only candidate that is capable of defeating Trump. WTF ARE THEY THINKING?! During the last debate, Tulsi was set up with a loaded question, was censored by the Washington Post broadcast video (after a cheap-shot attack by Harris), only allowed 7 minutes of screen time, overlooked for post-debate interview, and defenselessly smeared by the same interviewers.
This is how shamelessly they treat the only candidate who is capable of putting our nation back on track. Clearly, Putin is enjoying the view.
SHAME ON AMERICANS FOR ALLOWING THIS !!!

@Lawlzinator That's not true. Inflation is caused by increased demand vs insufficient supply, because suppliers can increase their prices under those conditions. At the moment, the supply chain has been temporarily disrupted by COVID, shutdowns, and 1 1/2 years of decreased spending. Manufacturers, middlemen, and shipping companies have reduced their stocks and laid off employees. Some have shut down altogether. So, supply has been reduced.
Now, things are returning to normal, consumers are less frightened of the future and spent up purchasing has skyrocketed, but the supply lines need to be restored and suppliers are trying to recoup their losses by jacking up their prices. Yes, I just paid ~75% more for my groceries.
The fed doesn't control the free market. It only has one tool to effect inflation, the interest rates of government loans. But, interest rates have already been set to historic lows, so what can the fed do?

@3:17 "TCH content"🤣😆🤪
Been using marijuana daily since 1970. In 2003, I had to stop using tobacco (pack per day), because it triggered rheumatoid arthritis and caused a flare up every time I smoked it. Had to switch to vaping, because my lungs couldn't take the burnt carbon build up. Now, I vape 95% THC all day long and am happily doing very well and fully functional as you can see. You don't drink whisky as if it's only beer, do you?
Existing marijuana laws ruin the lives of harmless users. After incarceration, they can't get jobs and are unable to be productive members of society. How are they supposed to survive without resorting to crime? The war against drugs is a failure.
BTW, alcohol kills inn many ways: internally, on the roads, and city streets. Marijuana doesn't. More people need to chill instead of becoming more belligerent. Too much violence and 40,000 gun deaths every year.😒

@Arid 1st question baited her into explaining the DNC/MSM corruption, just to piss off Dem viewers. Then, Harris sucker-punched Tulsi with the cheap shot Clinton/DNC bipartisan traitor smear. Then, magically the broadcast video feed blanked out precisely as her response began, then returned as she finished. She only had 7 minutes of screen time, was overlooked for post debate interviews, and smeared by the interviewers in her absence.
But, there are more debates and time to hit Tulsi with more smears.
Until now, I honestly thought the Dems and MSM were above this level of corruption.
If Tulsi doesn't make to the Oval Office, this once great nation will devolve into corruption and violence, just like third world shitholes. So, voters can either rally around Tulsi or start expanding their home arsenals. Hell, now even I have to buy a gun!

@thetruthyes Tulsi is a one of a kind, enlightened individual, who can't be contained and categorized into a pigeonhole, with a label. So, don't even presume to know her and associate her with the Clintons. Tulsi and Hillary have been at odds for over 3 years, just because Tulsi refuses to be controlled by her. It is Clinton that is behind all of the smears.
The rest of your rhetoric against her is nothing more than just that, which is a pretty good indication that you are no more than a troll.
Perhaps I'm a hermit, but I'm an honest one, who is very attentive to what's going on.
With regards to your edit, Tulsi is all about serving the needs of the whole above one's self or political party.
This is the opposite of what is going on in America, today. Both parties demonize the other, causing political gridlock. Tulsi refuses to allow the DNC to restrict her from working across the 'isle' for the betterment of the nation. I would go so far to say she is nonpolitical.
This is the POTUS America needs to stop the extremist gridlock, and bickering.
Anyone who supports Trump and calls themselves patriotic are fools. Trump is a self-serving mob boss, with a cabinet full of anarchists, who demonizes half of the population, instead of serving the whole. One by one, they are all going to prison for corruption. As each canary sings, they will take Trump down, too.
What you call freedom, I call lawlessness. Having come from a communist country, wherever that may be, you should be able to recognize corrupt leaders better than most. Because, although communism (equality for everyone) is a great ideology, it doesn't work because of greedy leadership. Have you become so used to it that you think it is normal? That would explain your acceptance of Trump.
Well, Americans don't have to accept political corruption and self-serving leaders. Ideally, we vote them out of office. You speak of protecting our constitutional rights, while Trump violates everything it stands for. Like I said, he is a mob boss, with a misguided mob of supporters. His rallies are like a pep rally, before a riot.
Trump also demonizes the press, just so everyone will blindly believe in his lies, rather that anyone who would call him out. This is one of the first steps towards dictatorship... silence the opposition.
If you like, I could teach you much more about democracy and freedom, comrade.
Please, go to tulsi2020.com and watch some of her videos, instead of misrepresenting an amazingly decent, patriot, who only wants what is best for our whole nation, not just the upper 1%.
Aloha!😎

@jasonwood9263 Then watch this and trust your own instincts:

Tulsi is the only candidate I trust, because she is a selfless, nonpolitical, dedicated public servant and has a track record to prove it. She is bravely taking on the DNC, Trump, Google, Wall Street, and anyone else who tries to get in between her and righteousness. On behalf of all Americans, Tulsi is fighting an uphill battle against an establishment fortress, with or with you.
If American voters unite to support her efforts, we have a great chance of ending political corruption. Otherwise, we devolve into just another corrupt shit-hole nation.
We have everything to gain or everything to lose. So, are you in or just gonna sit on your ass saying, "Well, I don't trust anyone."?
Tulsi is America's last hope for reform, before the SHTF.
Aloha, Dude!🙏

@briano672 Tulsi is suing Google for blocking her website. Most likely the info you found is part of the Clinton/DNC smear campaign that has been going on for 3 years, since Tulsi resigned from the VChair position to endorse Bernie. Yes, she quit her job, because it is against party rules for Chairs to favor specific candidates.
Hermits are among the most cynical people in the world, but I don't understand why the people in this country are always so willing to believe conspiracies and exaggerated rhetoric before getting info straight from the 'horse's mouth'.
Here, please allow me to introduce her to you properly:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mw1w-1Z0g8&list=PLsWW8mIXPMVyMk6f2hPkh37-S144Rq78A&index=4&t=9s
Tulsi is the exact opposite of everything you described. More importantly, she is the only candidate capable of taking on Trump, political corruption, and unifying our divided nation by working the middle ground, bridging the political gap.
It's your choice,
A: do nothing (if you don't car what happens),
B: Vote for Trump (if you want a corrupt, self-serving mob controlling everything), or
C: Support Tulsi (if you want to proudly live in the most decent nation in the world. That's not BS, because BS won't get it done).
🤔 Too difficult to choose country over party?

@thetruthyes Looks like we have a pretty big bird to pluck. Good thing its Thanksgiving time and I'm bored, anyway.
Trump accuses the MSM of being fake news so that ignorant (those who are not paying attention) people won't know who nor what to trust. But Trump's msg is correct, simply because he says so.
Don't you get it? Trump is a con man who is trying to out-message the messengers. It's propaganda that Trump uses as a smoke screen to conceal his criminal behavior.
Yes, I said criminal. Bribery and extortion are crimes and offences. Trump admitted it and provided the evidence.
Impeachment proceedings take a lot of time, but are moving along in a very thorough manner, as it should. There is a tremendous amount of evidence to be gathered and analyzed. Schiff is handling it properly.
No charges have 'stuck' on Trump, because not charges have been placed against him, mostly because of Mueller's assertion that a sitting president can't be indicted for a crime.
Nevertheless, the noose is inevitably tightening around his neck, as witnesses are subpoenaed to testify against him.
But, Pelosi knows that she must present her case to the senate for trial, so it has to be air tight, with overwhelmingly indisputable evidence that would shame a snake, before it would get a 60% approval for removal from office, with the coming election that would settle the matter in the court of public opinion.
In other words, the best Dems can do is make Trump stink so badly by next Nov that voters would puke before supporting a mob boss.
Then, Trump goes to jail, because he no longer has presidential immunity. And everyone lived happily ever after.
Good night.
I have a problem with the argument that no one is honest, just because previous people have been dishonest. I judge the trustworthiness of others, based upon their sincerity, their message, their motivations, and their objectives. Con men are always very charming, telling you exactly whatever you want to hear. They will make you win so much that you can't stand it anymore.
Tulsi has a track record of 16 years of serving our country in the National Guard, 2 ME tours, prior to 3 terms working across party lines in the senate. Tulsi's agenda is a righteous one of eliminating DC corruption, regime change wars, and caring for US internally. Where do you see any BS or selfish motivations in that?
I see it as a good shot of pride in leadership that Americans desperately need.
You speak of greatness. Let's have a little trip down memory lane to recall how we became so freacking awesome, shall we?
Rut-roh.🤐
Yeah, free unlimited natural resources, once we annihilated those pesky natives with overwhelmingly more powerful weapons. Then there was the slave labor, which most white folks would rather forget. Oh, but you are talking about our great invincible military machine that freed Europe from Hitler's death hold.
Okay, that's one point for you.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki, USA is the only nation to attack civilians with nuclear weaponry. Viet Nam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria... All shameful mistakes, ruthless waste of lives and resources.
Speaking of wasted lives and resources, we shoot 40,000 of ourselves to death every year and are the most irresponsible nation, wasting energy and polluting everything.
Internationally, our allies despise us because America is reneging on agreements with allies, abandoning fellow freedom fighters to be slaughtered by dictators and pandering to Putin and Kim.
So, please explain to me which of these shameful actions make America so damn great.

@chrismusso69 Seriously? Decades ago, the US had MORE than 30,000 gun deaths per year, but no one realized it? Now, everyone needs their own personal security camera to protect themselves from the police?
It was recently reported that only 1/2 of police killings are even reported. Why are you not disgusted and ashamed of these stats, instead of downplaying and gaslighting?
Yes, mental health is a major problem for people who think they need guns to protect themselves against other mentally ill people with guns.
Mental health is a major problem with people who think storming our Capitol to stop the Congressional transfer of Executive authority to the majority's choice, in the name of patriotism while waving Ole Glory.
Mental health is a major problem within tRump's cult of anarchists, the GQP 'Freedom caucus', anti-maskers, anti-vaxxers, and election fraud believers.

@enidankavon Joe hasn't changed any immigration laws. He's only enforcing them in a more humane way than leaving refugees stranded in primitive camps along the Mexican side of the border, without money, food, drinking water, nor electricity and sewers.
Yes, over recent years, they have increasingly been fleeing for their lives in fear of being murdered by drug cartels. But, illegal crossings and human trafficking are still illegal and when apprehended, they're sent back home, as the laws require.
But, Biden has rebuilt the immigration department that Stephen Miller & tRump decimated and has provided decent temporary accommodations for legal asylum applicants and counselors to process their paperwork.
tRump's wall was a stupid failure, which doesn't stop illegal entry and he only turned his back on helpless refugee children.
Biden/Harris are humanely handling the situation and addressing the root cause in their homelands.
The difference is the decency of leadership.

@ucdwags00 Same here. Garland belongs on the SCOTUS bench, instead of being a cowardly AG, who turned a bind eye from tRump's incitement of Jan 6, for 2 years, even after the House Select Committee did the DOJ's job and presented him 3 televised public hearings with overwhelming evidence of tRump's guilt.
Garland's willful ignorance enabled MAGA to infiltrate Congress during the 2022 midterms, with the likes of MTG, Looney Blowbutt, Mad pedophile Gaetz, Paul Gosar and the rest of tRump's 'loyalist' know-nothing, do-nothing saboteurs
who have attempted to impeach Biden, Majorkas, default on paying their own bills, shutdown our government, and replaced their own speaker McCarthy with MAGA Mike, who takes orders from citizen tRump to refuse putting the most comprehensive, conservative, tri-partisan negotiated Border security bill on the House floor for an up/down vote, which would have otherwise been approved by both chambers and signed into law, 6 months ago!
Congress' gridlock and chaotic infighting are ALL because of Garland's cowardice to take on tRump. So, he simply passed the threats on to Jack Smith's family, which only enabled Eileen Cannon to completely dismiss tRump's stolen documents case, which includes charges of espionage.
If Garland had performed his duties, Dems would be in control of both houses of Congress, tRump would already be in prison, and MAGA would be back under their rocks of darkness.
I BLAME GARLAND FOR ALL OF AMERICA'S PROBLEMS!
TRUMP'S A TRAITOR!!
GARLAND IS HIS ENABLER!!

Parents ween their children on violent VR video games until they are addicted to the dopamine rush for achieving the highest kill scores. By the time those kids are teenagers, they have become intimately familiar and skilled in the usage of nearly every weapon on earth, especially ARs. They have already become desensitized to mass killing and relish creating as much virtual mayhem as possible.
Furthermore, these kids spend every waking moment on their game console, instead of participating in character building activities, such as sports, where in addition to getting physical exercise to build healthy bodies, they also learn to social skills, the advantages of teamwork, good sportsmanship, winning and losing gracefully.
Without those activities, many kids become more socially isolated and introverted, literally living in a the security of a fantasy world, where there are no consequences and no bullies too big to defeat.
Ill-equipped to deal with life, these kids are the easy targets of bullies. No doubt, they think, "If I had an AR, I'd take care of those bullies.", then "You just wait a few months, until I'm 18. I'll show you who's the boss."
IF there's still a Dad around, most tech their kids how to hunt, "like a real man, because it builds character" by unnecessarily killing a harmless wild animal and watching it die from your own actions. Then, dismiss any thoughts of guilt, while decapitating it, gutting it, skinning it, butchering it, and eating it.
Yeah, yeah. Spare me the "well, you eat meat, don't you?" BS. that's what domestic animals are raised for. Wildlife are already struggling to survive loss of habitat, without being hunted down with pheromones, game cams, camouflage, telescopic sites, and semi-automatic military weapons. Where's the fair sportsmanship in that?

Johnson, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Watergate era?
Yeah, but a lot of us old farts were anti-establishment, free-loving, anti-racial, anti-war, enlightened hippies.
Nixon gunned 4 of them down during the Kent State massacre, which horrified the public to the point of ending the Viet Nam war.
Most of us still hold those values close to our hearts.
I hated tRump the moment I saw him posturing on the 'golden' escalator in front of his rent-a-crowd. I've been a never-tRump online keyboard warrior every day since.
Right:
Don't deny our healthcare.
Don't threaten our Social Security that we have been paying into.
Don't defile Ole Glory by weaponizing our flag.
We can no longer proudly fly it w/o being labeled MAGA trash.
Don't broadcast to the world that we have become a shithole nation. That's MAGA's doing.
Don't sabotage the excellent global diplomacy of our POTUS, while he is rallying the free world of nations to fight against ruthless dictatorships.

Why are abortions immoral, yet slaughtering, and butchering fully sentient newly born calves to eat as 'veal' for breakfast is honky-dory for Evangelicals?
Oh, "because humans have eternal divine souls, but animals don't," you reply, without proof of either.
IOW, abortion and women's reproductive rights are religious matters, of which "Congress shall make no laws..."
Oh, your man made imaginary god's laws trump our Founders' Constitutional laws of our nation, eh? /smh

@realblacksknowthetruth1519 Fine, so let's talk about yo Mamma, lol!
Apparently you missed the part about Trump's KKK family history. How many lawsuits are there against the Trump family?
Yes, I'm VERY pissed off with ALL racism that is dividing and destroying our nation. It applies to me, because I'm being painted with the same broad brush. I hate the way minorities have been treated throughout American history and totally support the BLM movement's constitutional right to peacefully protest. IMO, the right wing white supremacists, anarchists, vigilantes, boogaloo boys, proud boys, et al (of whom Trump praises) are denying civil rights and should be removed from society and thrown in prison.
I would still like to understand why you, of all people, still support Trump.

@saltrock9642 Thanks, but no thanks. The taxpayers pay for the professionally trained Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, and Border Patrol to protect our asses. So, please stand down, stop beating your chest, rattling your saber, and waving that F'ing gun around, before you hurt someone including yourself.
Our armed forces are funded by Congressional appropriations, based upon the will of the common people. Their Commander in Chief is the civilian elected POTUS, who should be responsible enough to apply military force judiciously.
You have no authority to use lethal force against anyone. So, stand down and STFU.

@conservative_Redskin Pelosi, Schiff, and Schummer have done their best to hold Trump in check and uphold our Constitution. They are the truly brave patriots, working to represent the needs of common citizens, instead of Wall Street. Trump is Putin's puppet; significant scandals and international corruption is being revealed by witnesses, family, and whistle blowers everyday. 1000 people are needlessly dying everyday, many are Trump rally attendees. But, Trump doesn't care because he makes them sign medical waivers not to sue him if they our family get infected and/or die.
He has already betrayed his country with delays, gaslighting, and lies about not wearing masks, taking hydroxychlorophyl, and having a safe vaccine by October. It's all BS!

I can cough anytime I please. So what does a few coughs prove? Good acting, perhaps? Come on, People! When will you ever learn? After his history of being a 'pathological liar', why is everyone trusting anything that Trump says? His doctors have all signed nondisclosure agreements to muzzle the truth.
IMO, Trump's COVID infection and his miraculous 3 day recovery, after taking his untested, non-FDA approved concoction of unproven experiment drugs is all a hoax. Totally fake news.
Why has Melania left in quarantine at the WH? IMO, she didn't want to be involved in Trump's deceptive ruse.
Why would Trump do such a thing, right after his disgraceful debate performance? It gained a lot of sympathy from his base, it supported his reckless messaging of COVID being no big deal so get back to work for his economic numbers, and it got him out of a second virtual debate, based upon a lame excuse that Biden would be receiving the answers. Someone is always cheating little Donnie, aren't they? Poor little thing.

@optimusprinceps3526 Just for the record, none of George's offenses justify the "Peace Officers" appointing themselves to become authoritarian prosecutors, justices, juries, nor executioners.
Did George know that the $20 bill was counterfeit? How do you know he was 'swinging' fentanyl? If he had swallowed any quantity, then he was committing suicide to avoid being arrested? Didn't even consider that, did you? Instead, you assume the worst of a black man, while defending 'bad' cops. WTF is wrong with your sense of justice, Racist?
They already knew George, personally and targeted him with overwhelming force and escalated the situation into a violent attack. One jumped George from behind with an illegal choke hold to bring him down to the ground.
George never even attempted to defend himself by striking back.
Then, several more executioners sat on George,until he couldn't breathe under their weight, although he tried to tell them. Knowing that they were killing him, George cried out for his mother, before dying.
His executioners ignored his pleas and continued to suffocate the poor man.
This is NOT how American justice is supposed to be served against US citizens. That's why those officers are serving time in prison for homicide.

@Jesussaves.808 Thank you for engaging me with this respectful debate. I am more than pleased to oblige in kind.
Yes, Christianity is undeniably a religion , with it's roots in the Old Testament of Judaism, which was originally passed down by word of mouth through millennia and thousands of generations.
"Father, what is that rumbling from the sky?"
"Well son, that is god telling you that he is angry with you for not eating your veggies."
It is all about using an omnipotent, invisible, deity of wrath to control weaker minds of sheeple, based upon blind faith.
"Better watch out , better not cry...
Santa Claus is making a list and checking it twice, gonna find out whose naughty or nice...
He sees you when you're sleeping..."
It is all about indoctrination from birth. A year is a lifetime for children to wait for their final reward. Meanwhile, they had better behave.
But, some people never mature to realize that it is all a lie.
FYI, I grew up in a Christian home, have read the contradictory Bible, competed in church bible quizzes, sang in the choir and was Sunday school class president, until I became old enough to recognize the hypocrisy.
Then I spent decades on a sojourn, investigating numerous religions, teachings of gurus, and the philosophy of The Buddha's Dhammapada, the philosophy of honorable, mindful behavior in search of divine truth. But only found mankind's greedy fingerprints all over those teachings, in order to collect tithes and power.
That is exactly what you are participating in by preaching to others... with divine authority, "Go ye throughout the world to teach the words of Jesus." whether we want it or not. It's nothing less than disrespectful and condescending.
I don't need to know how the Universe came into being. But that doesn't prove the existence of your divine creator, neither.
There is undeniable archeological evidence of evolution, that the human species evolved from ape-like creatures through interbreeding of many hominoids to become modern man, with a mixture of all those genetic characteristics. Which has contributed to our intelligence for survival. These scientific facts, you can't deny.
I know precisely the undeniable identity of the ultimate, omnipotent, eternal, creator and destroyer of all things in the universe, from the smallest hydrogen atom to the solar systems. It's name is Time.
Every heartbeat of every being that has ever lived/will ever live must be in accordance with Time, which determines the moment of birth, sensory awareness, expression, hunger, thirst, defecation, urination, comprehension, education, graduation, procreation, degradation. and death.
Over Time, colliding tectonic plates raise mountains. Over Time, those mountains erode back into the seas.
Success is 100% dependent upon observing the signs of Time. Ignorance of them results in inevitable failure.
Past civilizations understood this. That is why they built solar clocks, like Stonehenge in order to know when to sow and harvest. But worshipping the sun, moon and stars was nothing more than respecting the clocks of Time.
"Time is of the essence"
"A proper Time for everything."
"It's only a matter of Time'
"Time to get up."
"Time is running out."
"A Time for work, a Time to rest, a Time to laugh ,a Time to cry"
These common old sayings have been expressed since the the beginnings of mankind, without ever understanding that they are all referring t the god of Time.
You have 0 proof that mankind has a soul, that there is an eternal afterlife of heavenly rewards, nor fiery brimstone of hell for the wicked.
We are no different from every other species that have been evolving over Time.
As a matter of fact, worms and maggots are more beneficial to maintaining the Earth's eco systems than the mindless, narcissistic, destructive behavior of mankind, with an insatiable appetite for power and wealth to feed the ego.
Don't preach to me about your superior morality, while I am a hermit, who has rejected this mindless violent society to live in harmony with nature.
Let me teach you about the laws of Yin and Yang, the left and right hands of Time... another Time.
I anxiously await to read your superstitious reply.
1
-
"How can I find happiness in life?"
Learn from the past, love in the present, plan for the future. Obey the signs of Time.
"Will evil and suffering ever end?"
Understand that evil exists within the minds of mankind. Reject mankind's evil.
There is no life without suffering. Deal with it.
Will I ever see my dead loved ones again?
Nothing exists beyond death. Dead loved ones can only be seen in your memories, photos, and videos.
Does God really care about me?
Time is the undeniable, immortal, omnipotent, creator and destroyer of all things in the universe, from the smallest atom to systems. We must obey Time. Immortals are oblivious to petty mortal woes and desires.
How can I pray and be heard by God?
You can pray during every moment of every day to any god imaginable and that will inevitably be your downfall.
You are responsible for your choices in life, as well as their consequences. No angels are ever going to swoop down from the sky to save you from your own sorry ass.
Educate yourself in scientifically provable facts, instead of superstitious blind faith.
YOU ARE NOT QUALIFIED TO COUNSEL ANYONE ELSE AND WILL ONLY DRAG THEM DOWN WITH YOUR ARROGANCE.
WHOMEVER PROFESSES TO KNOW GOD'S WILL IS THE ESSENCE OF EVIL.

How has this happened to US?
#1: Producers of 'The Apprentice' created a false image of bankrupted business idiot being a mogul genius.
#2: Uneducated viewers fell for that fake image, w/o knowing the man.
#3: 9 years' worth US vs Them rallies, demonizing the media, immigrants, and 1/2 of US citizens to amuse an anarchistic cult of deplorable people.
#4: MSM, especially Faux Spews, followed by others (CNN, OAN, ...) for ratings, only acquiesced by feeding his ego with both sides narratives and constant free airplay of every fart. Their simpleminded irresponsible reporting simply normalized, propagated, and promoted the nonsense to the masses for free.
#5: Russia, China, and enemy trolls exploited social media algorithms to create echo chambers of harmful conspiracies to millions of followers, who are too lazy and ignorant to fact check for learning the truths.
#6: tRump is an expert conman, who knows how to recognize easy marks, like the under educated and Evangelicals of blind faith. He is nothing more than a shitshowman, who spews lying rhetoric to fearmonger in order to whip his crowds into a frenzy of potential violence, primed to attack his rivals.
Instead of recognizing the biblical AntiChrist, from their pulpits ministers and priests preach to their congregations that this deceiver is the 'divine Chosen One, sent by god to save our nation from evil'.
#7: The DOJ has completely failed to uphold our laws, most notably by the cowardly incompetence of A G Garland, who has turned a blind eye from blatant criminal acts of treason, which has enabled MAGA to sabotage our Congress and empowered tRump to defiantly rally his cult. Garland could have ended this nightmare 2 1/2 years ago. Now, tRup will completely escape being prosecuted of treason, after sharing top secret classified nuclear defense documents with our global enemies. Now, Garland's job will be given to Eileen cannon, as a reward for dismissing that espionage case.
THIS IS HOW THE DOWNFALL OF OUR GREAT NATION HAS COME TO PASS...UNDER THE GUISE OF MAGA.
DU~UH.

@bill1589 FYI, I'm not Bannon's nurse maid. But, I see that he is being subpoenaed by the Select Committee.
I don't have a favorite Dem candidate and Biden wasn't my 1st choice. But, now that the people have spoken, I accept him as POTUS. That's how our elections and Constitutional law works. I believe in both.
Having said that, IMHO, this administration is EXACTLY the leadership our country needs, effectively addressing multiple problems, simultaneously.
Biden has made every possible effort to reach across the political aisle to include the Republicant party and agree upon compromises, just as our Founding Fathers intended. But, 'the Grim Reaper' and his GQP obstructionists only slap him in the face. They don't know how to legislate. May as well stick a dummy in their chairs with 'NO' pasted on its forehead.

@bill1589 Which part of "I don't have a favorite Dem candidate" do you not understand. I never even said that I'm a Dem, did I?
Furthermore, 2024 is a long way off and no candidates have even thrown their hats into the ring. So, WTF are you even talking about?
I'm a never tRumper and that excludes all current Republicans.
Show me an honest politician who also supports Biden's agenda and that candidate will get my vote, provided that they are a viable candidate.
For example, Gabbard was a great personality, but didn't have a clue about conducting a Presidential Campaign; house to house from the back of a borrowed cargo van? Get real! Besides, the DNC cheated to bar her from debates. That killed my support of their party. Now, I support the best candidate, according to my personal POV.
So, who are you planning to vote for, considering that tRump will be in prison?

Fresh Start Okay, I just fact checked the data; "a crowdsourced database that includes deaths by vehicle, tasering or beating in addition to shootings, estimates 25 police killings of unarmed Black men in 2019."
So, my previous statement was incorrect, because of a video I had recently viewed. But, so was your number.
I apologize for my previous comment and will check out Michelle, just for good measure, okay?
FYI: The Hermit has no kids, family, nor friends.

Doug Carter I'm a pragmatic American atheist, who believes in our Constitutional laws, the 3 legged balance of Federal power with Congressional checks and balances, the sciences of evolution, climate change, conserving the environment, sustainable energy, free education, free healthcare, equal rights, clean air, pure water, nonGMO food, and economic assistance to put less fortunate people back on their feet. I believe in active foreign diplomacy, without using military force to impose our failed political system upon others. The UN, NATO, and multinational alliances make our nation stronger and more influential throughout the world.
Political parties sway with the polls, while divisive labels come and go. Both parties are difficult to even recognize, anymore. So, if you MUST stick The Hermit into some ideological pigeon hole with a label, shoot your best shot. But, I am associated with no one and don't run with any pack.
Sounds like you have a great kid. He is your own genetic future; therefore, your physical reincarnation and afterlife. Yet, his future challenges are beyond your imagination. You are only the bow that sends him on his way. Your sights must be clean, with a true aim a steady hand. But, only your son can soar along the arrow's path. Cherish your children, because your own life will soon crumble into ashes and dust.
Stay safe, my friend.

How can anyone not trut Preident Biden after his free vaccine distribution have saved millions of lives from COVID to the point of herd immunity, life returning to normal, SNAP for children out of school, extended unemployment benefits, eviction moratorium keeping families from living in streets, PPEs, stimulus checks, and mall business loans?
This is BS negative reporting by Dan Merica, regarding Biden's current polling numbers. The pandemic is behind US, life has returned to normal, the 35,000 infrastructure projects are only beginning, creating job and booting locl economies with union incomes.
Meanwhile, tRump is headed to prison, leaving behind the Q-nuts to continue sabotaging our economy and the House, which sensible voters are ick of watching.
Bidenomics has only just begun and will be in full bloom by the 2024 election. Republicants have nothing but malicious rhetoric.

@barbarafleites2253 You're willful ignorance of Biden's accomplishments is appalling. Biden is saving our nation from tRumpism, has picked it up off it's knees after COVID shutdowns, has literally saved millions of lives with an incredible rollout of vaccines. tRump's gaslighting has killed ~500,000 of his own supporters, 76% more that Dems who followed CDC guidelines for getting vaccinated.
You are far better off with thousands of $ worth of Biden's stimulus checks, businesses and schools reopened, supply disruptions repaired, 40% less child poverty, unemployment benefits extensions, eviction moratoriums, gs prices returning to pre-pandemic levels, etc, etc, etc.
When has your life ever been as perfect as your expectations, after so many have died because of tRump's gaslighting?
tRump is a traitor, ho has divided our nation only for the intention of becoming its first dictator. That's why he refused to step down, invented his Big Lie, attempted military coups, and eventually incited his mob of misguided anarchists, white nationalists, and rag-tag illegal militias to attack our Capitol or the sole purpose of overthrowing the will of We the People.
NO US citizen should still be supporting such a POS. Whomever does is the enemy within.

'Morning, Texas Paul. After joining you with my usual cup of Mexican coffee, I'd like to add my understanding of the Faux Spews' China oil matter. My 1st exposure to it was from a tRumptarded comment under the globally broadcast WH press briefing. 'Biden should be in prison for treason over sending our oil reserves to China!"
My independent fact checking revealed that our oil is being sold on the global market at record high prices. Presumably, that oil will be replaced by domestic suppliers at minimal prices, because we have been subsidizing their search for more reservoirs. IOW, we're going to make a substantial profit, while relieving the supply/demand imbalance, which will lower prices at the pumps for consumers.
The majority of those barrels from our reserves is being sent to Europe to offset their sanctions against Russian oil.
Furthermore, China is one of Russia's primary oil customers, which undermines the NATO sanctions against Russian oil. Apparently there was an agreement to supply China with an alternative supply, IF they stopped buying from Russia. Apparently, this is the reasoning for taking that action, except China hasn't stopped buying from Russia, yet.
I really appreciate your level headed, calm, no hyperbolic BS delivery of the truth Paul. You are truly an asset to the Meidas Touch channel.
Shout out to Leigh, of PoliticsGirl, who is also a fav of mine. That girl is all fired up and always ready to go with her extensive research on current right wing BS..
TBH, I've been avoiding the brothers lately, because they've gotten deeper into questionably exaggerated rhetoric with certain guests for my liking. I'm done with the divisive one party vs the other BS. That's only politics, as our Founders intended. But, I'm 100% a never-tRumper, and a daily keyboard warrior against his anarchist cult.
But, with your glowing praise, I'll give the Meidas bros another shot.
BR & please keep on keeping on your work for our nation. Oops, my Mexican coffee is getting cold.

@ 20:35 How ironic that this veteran so ignorantly blames Biden for the fall of Afghanistan, after it was tRump who negotiated its downfall with the Taliban, while being Impeached, and vindictively scheduled the withdrawal to happen under Biden's term, knowing full well that he would lose the 2020 election.
tRump betray the 20 years' worth of blood, sweat, and sacrifices of our military families, not to mention the $5T of taxpayer's money.
Bush started that war against our former Taliban allies, just to save face over allowing bin Laden to slip through his fingers at Toro Bora.
But, a decade later, after W gave up, Obama found Bin Laden and ordered Seal Team 6 in to take him out. Every person of color should be proud of Obama being everyone's righteous POTUS.
These people are disgracing his legacy and their own race. /smh

@jeeperspeepers8323
Stop the both sides BS.
They are absolute opposites regarding legality, morality, governance, authoritarianism, humanitarian aide, gun violence, climate change, education, healthcare...
They are the Yin and Yang of politics, struggling against each other. The more extreme one side is, the more extreme the other resists.
Today's Republicans fight to serve a lawless, self-serving traitor.
Democrats are fighting for personal freedoms, law & order, human decency, the environment, the well being of future generations, providing healthcare, social security for the elderly.
If you don't understand these differences, then you're being willfully ignorant and should stay away from political conversations.

@leveljoe Thank you for your time and respectful, but misguided reply. It provides me with hope that we can have a serious civil debate regarding guns, more generally regardless of whether they are ghost or legal.
2nd amendment rights and your typical points are not simple matter to discus fully. I have nothing better to do, so I suggest grabbing a beer, bong, or whatever your poison of preference may be. Mine is vaping 80% THC, but my tolerance is so high that it is a waste of money.
So, let's get started, point by point.
* "Are you trying to sound smart?"
No, I'm not trying to pretend being smart. I'm simply exercising my 1st amendment right of free speech to ask folks like yourself obvious questions to make common sense points.
* "People need weapons to defend themselves"
Not true. "People who live in fear cling to their guns," Obama correctly stated. I say that only pussies need guns to protect themselves against other pussies with guns. Then pussies need bigger guns. 🙄
Simply use the brains we were born with to stay out of trouble. 'Stand your ground'? BS excuse for a gunman to kill. Step aside or walk around. It shouldn't become a matter of life or death.
*"..and oppose a corrupt government."
Seriously? Civilian AR pea shooters VS A10s & F-35s?
FYI:
"n the fiscal year of 2025, the United States Air Force is estimated to have 1,295 fighters at their disposal. Additionally, the U.S. Air Force look to have 223 tankers and 114 bombers at their disposal.Aug 27, 2024"
Rots-a-ruck, Rambo.

@leveljoe
*"The fact that you asked that tells me you're not American or a child."
Please allow me to introduce myself instead of presuming to whom you are addressing. As I've mentioned, I grew up in the mid west, on a farm, with a .22 Remington single shot bolt action rifle. With gun in hand, I went on imaginary 'hunt and kill' missions in the woods. Every bird and wild animal was moving target practice to hone my survival skills. I know very well what a gun does to a person's mindset.
Fight or flight? A person with a gun will charge headlong into volatile situations, like public spousal abuse, to bully the abuser into submission. Take away the gun and most folks would simply intervene to stop the abuse or phone the police and the situation wouldn't escalate into anyone getting killed. One less gun = one less murder.
*' England did not prohibit the possession of arms,"
Yes they did, as well as raping virgin brides in accordance with monarchical laws. There was increasing civil unrest so the British became fearful of an impending revolution and started confiscating firearms, which only escalated matters more.
*"...and the framers added the Second Amendment for the citizens to oppose their own government should it become corrupt. "
Anarchistic' BS.
1970: Nixon's corrupt government ordered the Ohio National Guard opened fire upon Kent State Nam protestors & killed 4?
I grew up 60 miles from Kent state and graduated from high school that year. Everyone in my community had had guns, mostly for hunting, but not one citizen picked up arms to take on the National guard.
Instead, the public was horrified, Nixon was impeached, and civilian voters elected less corrupt leaders of government, just as the framers originally intended, without a single shot needing to be fired.
The framers' very 1st Amendment specifically grants We the People the rights of free speech to protest against our own government, instead of needing to take up arms to overthrow it, regardless of religion, race, or creed..
*"The 2A, at its writing, allowed citizens to own the same arms as any army (ships, canons, repeating arms, muskets, swords, everything). Most of the weapons used by Americans in the Revolutionary War were privately owned. And the framers intended those weapons of war to be in the hands of citizens AND the standing military. "
The standing military was only established the year prior to the framers' writing of the Constitution, insufficient time for our fledgling government to manufacture and distribute official weaponry to mostly volunteer troops, who improvised by using their own. But, very few had heavy weaponry, like cannons, Gatlin guns, etc.
Then came the civil war of cousins vs cousins facing off against each other. Wonderful history, eh? Kinda what we're in the brink of today, no thanks to trump, eh?
*" Do you seriously expect a corrupt government's own military to overthrow itself?'
No, that's why our framers mandated the We the People be protected by a civilian elected Commander in Chief, isn't it?

-
@leveljoe *"That's not logical. That's why our citizens are allowed to possess the same weapons of war."
Yes, and now we are witnessing the consequences of those illogical & misguided policies.
Those weapons of war are being sold to immature, untrained, emotionally unstable teenagers, who have been weened from toddlers on computer games to become proficient in the usage of every weapon imaginable and each one's fire power,
For every waking moment, those kids are stuck in front of those virtual 'baby sitters' by their busy parents, to play inside virtual killing fields, while becoming dopamine junkies receiving hits for higher kills scores.
"Great shooting, Son!"
Without exercise and social interactions, such as team sports, where coping skills, like how to win and lose gracefully are learned, many of those kids are isolated, become introverted, and get picked on by school bullies.
"If I could only get my hands on a real AR, like Dad's, I'd teach them all a lesson they would never forget."
"But, little Billy has always been such a quiet little angel. I can't understand why he would do such a terrible thing." /smh
Conditioning? Being desensitized by committing virtual mayhem? Unable to discern between virtual reality and reality, you reckon?
Mass shootings and most gun violence in 'Merica is a cultural dis-ease, from glorifying gunslingers on afternoon western series, WWII battles, F Troop, Rat Patrol, Rambo, Star Wars, .... and now participating virtually.
Australians immediately put an end to school shootings, after their 1st, by handing in of all their assault rifles to be destroyed. Problem solved by common sense.

@leveljoe
* "Think what you want of militias, but that is what's keeping Ukraine out of Russian hands."
More BS. Ukrainians are defending themselves with DIY Kamakazi drones and western alliances' support of military weaponry. Plus Russia's economy is being crippled by sanctions and oil embargos. Putin's invasion is unsustainable and doomed to failure.
*"As for J6, that was a protest, not an insurrection."
BFS! it was a completely illegal barbaric attack upon the US Capitol by anarchists, white supremacists, and organized militias. to stop the Congressional ceremony of confirm the results of our secure and fair election.
It was a failed attempt of insurrection, ordered by a corrupt, impeached, whoremongering, silver-spoon-fed, con man, who is still 'fighting like hell' to keep his sorry ass out of prison by clinging onto Executive immunity against being prosecuted.
#"The protestors were not armed, "
They had weapons stashed in a van, ready for deployment and 2 bombs stashed in the bushes. They defiled Ole Glory by using her flagpole as spears, they were armed with bear spray.
"Get rid of the magnetometers. They're now here to harm me."
*"and they went home on their own."
They only went home 4 hours later, after tRump told them to "go home peacefully," before the National Guard arrived to hurt his MAGA cult.
*"No one was charged with insurrection. No one."
Why are hundreds still sitting in DC jail? Why hasn't Garland prosecuted the Congressional MAGA loyalist for their seditious conspiracies, leading up to tRump's 'wild rally'?
Why is tRump's prosecution in DC only just beginning? Why did Aileen Cannon dismiss his charges of espionage over stealing (and selling)
top secret nuclear defense docs?
Let's talk about the corrupt DOJ, and SCOTUS, who have been shielding tRump from imprisonment.
I guarantee that Chutkan will take down Mafioso don, the 2-bit con and so will Harris.
*" Hyperbole..."
Yeah right...
*"Where did I say anything about schools?' You didn't. I did.
*"Where did I say it is acceptable?"
You comments imply that, because you refuse to suggest any solutions.
*"Murder is already illegal, and yet they still do it. Guns are illegal in most of Europe, and yet mass attacks still happen."
No they're not. I lived 10 years in England during the '80s, when a woman could safely walk down the streets of Soho during the middle of the night without fear. Bobbies didn't carry guns, but only had nightsticks, whistles and walkie talkies.
There was only one mass shooter somewhere in Scandinavia, prior to the Muslim knife attacks.
*"It's not guns, it's evil people who find a way to harm innocent people."
Mankind is historically an apex predator, capable of horrific means of torture.... most often over religious rivalries.
'THOU SHALL NOT KILL." Commanded the common god of Israel, Muslims, and Jews. So, they have been murdering each other in that same god's name for over 2000 years, just as we're witnessing in Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen and Iran.
*"Let's protect our children like we protect anything else that's valuable."
With guns, barbed wire around schools, locked doors, active shooter drills, and superstitious prayers of desperation?"
*"My guns have never hurt anyone."
But, you only own them, with the premediated purpose of killing anyone of whom you perceive as a threat to you or your family, right?
You simply haven't been in that position, yet. But, wouldn't hesitate to grab your gun and use it, if you ever were.
*"Nice try though..."
Come back with some viable solutions to stop the killing, in order to finish this debate, when you think you can prove me wrong.
Enjoyed the exchange.
Can't wait to witness tRump losing the election, then being escorted into prison. Wonder if they'll use gold plated handcuffs.
He has already talked about going to Venezuela for exile, just like Hitler's Nazi war criminals. His father was KKK, with a Nazi business partner, you know. That's why the Neo-Nazis and white nationalists love him so much.
'...very fine people," tRump calls them.
Looking forward to your reply, after investing my day on this exchange.

@leveljoe I would hardly call those volumes of debunking points "one breath". Nor did I say anything like your takeaway from those debunking of your previous assertions..
Are you retired military, with insider knowledge of resource weaknesses?
Now, you're the one sounding like a child, with a hyperactive imagination of personal power.
I'm saying that our nation doesn't need disorganized rag-tag weekend warrior private militias, who are nothing more than MAGA enemies within, attacking our government on behalf of a notorious, life-long, lying, cheating, whoremongering, adulterous, 34 count convicted felon of fraud, and traitor who refused to step down, because 81 million voters had already kicked his sorry ass out of our Oval office.
On one breath, you demand the protection of the 2nd. In that same breath, you support the traitor and wannabe dictator, who has already stated that he wants to tear up our framers' Constitutional laws.
You can't have that both ways.
are you a patriotic, law abiding US citizen or a traitor within, whose sole intention is to destroy the US government?
FYI, WE THE PEOPLE ARE THE GOVERNMENT. There is no US vs the US government. If we don't like our leaders, then we vote them out via civilized elections, NOT by anarchy, weapons, and barbaric brute force.
The majority hates tRump, stood together as the UNITED States, and got rid of him with a mere stroke of a pen on a ballot. If you have a problem with majority rule then you don't believe in the good, fair, and decent values that have defined US for over 250 years,
We the People choose our civilian POTUS, who serves our needs, regardless of political party, religion, color, or creed, just as our framers intended.
We have a civilian Commander in Chief over all branches of our military to protect US against all foreign enemies, who would/have harmed US.
Yes, you're correct about keeping the peace being more difficult than waging wars.
President Biden has mindfully and skillfully stood toe to toe against Putin, warned him to not invade Ukraine and Putin is suffering the consequences of ignoring the warnings of our POTUS.
On the other hand, leaders, like Bush/Cheney, under the advice of pentagon war hawks, would have ordered troops onto Ukraine's soil, with overwhelming weaponry of force and triggered WW III, after Putin had already threatened the use of nukes against NATO.
Diplomatic solutions, establishing strong alliances, and leading them is even more difficult. Yet, 'Old Man Biden' has brilliantly achieved all of those goals.
Forget about Israel, because Netanyahu has gone completely rogue with murdering millions of civilians and refuses to listen to anyone's peace talks. He will also pay the consequences, eventually.
Thanks to Biden's mindful leadership, our lives have been restored, but not perfect because of corporate opportunistic price gouging, after their supply chain disruptions have been solved. You can't blame their greed on Biden, within a free market economic structure.
If the government started controlling prices, then you would be crying 'fascists'!
Haven't you been paying attention to the reporting over the radical right wing's fascist mandate of Project 2025?
Have you never taken an 8th grade Civics class that covers how the US government is structured with checks and balances to avoid authoritarian rule?
Look it. You can kiss tRump's ass as much as you like and I couldn't care less. I like Lewis Black... as a comedian, but wouldn't vote for him to become POTUS. Yet, he would be a helluva lot better than the idiot traitor tRump, who only listens to whomever gives him a hug and pledges their loyalty to him over party and national security.
Get real, get educated, and woke TF up, trumptards!
I had hoped for a reasonable exchange, but you are nothing more than a waste of my time and effort.

What does the US government have to do with corporate greed and price gouging? Oh yes, now I remember, those Republicant Congressional legislators, who kowtow to their corporate lobbyists, instead of serving We their People.
Dems want corporations to pay their fair share in taxes, so the corporate shareholders stick it to their consumers, who then blame it on our POTUS.
"Alternative energy, eh? Then, let's see how much people are willing to pay for our oil that they subsidized us to find."
Radicalized right-wingers and predatory capitalism are literally killing off every American's dream of achieving greatness.
Morally impoverished, they care about no one but themselves, that typical slippery slope into a shithole nation, full of pigs wallowing in the muck of their own sty.

Average American teens have only 3 choices:
1) Stay with parents on unlivable minimum wages,
2) begin adulthood from under a mountain of crippling student loan debt, or
3) survive on the streets as prostitutes or drug dealers.
Taxpayers have 2 options:
1) Pay for temporary higher education to enable young folks to become respectable members of society, or
2} Pay for the life long incarceration of unemployable repeat felons.
On the other hand, privileged elite teens have free rides to unlimited wealth,, served to them on silver platters by their parents, including higher education in ivy league universities, free housing, free EVs, and free tax write offs from corrupt, Republicant politicians.

The 'godfather' summoned all of the Congressional Republicans into the Oval Office as soon as he arrived. Trump understands that 'every an has his price' and has the resources to pay it. Obviously, he gave them an offer they couldn't refuse. His 'embrace' sealed their oath of allegiance to him, above party and nation. That's why he has absolute control over the Senate and House Republicans. Woe to anyone who breaks their vow by not holding the Trump Party line. Yes, I said Trump Party because he owns the Republicans.
This is the only possible explanation for their shameless behavior throughout the impeachment proceedings. This is also the only explanation of McConnell's public statement that he would follow the White House counsel's guidance and that there is 0 chance of impeachment passing the Senate. This is illegal and unconstitutional.
After the backlash of a failed impeachment, Trump will win the election, Dems will lose the House and a vindicated Trump will be unstoppable. Within only 4 years, Trump and his motley mob of Cabinet henchmen will have successfully conducted a coup against our democracy, without firing a shot. He has already floated ending term limits and is poised to become America's first dictator. Of course, his ego would prefer the title of 'King of the World.' Then, his heirs in waiting could inherit his 'kingdom'. Bada-bing. Just like that.
You think I'm crazy? Who's gonna stop him? His only check on power is the Dem controlled House and they have already failed, simply because everyone dismissed it as only a hyper-partisanship. Guess again. Tick-tock.......(crickets chirping)

By all means, let's remind voters about the 1st day of chaos during the Afghan 'withdrawal', which was played on a continuous news loop for over a year, without mentioning that it was tRump who betrayed the blood of our troops, wasted 20 years worth ($Trillions) of taxpayer funding, freed 5,000 Al Qaeda, ISIS, and Taliban terrorists from the Pakistani prison, secretly promised that they could have Afghanistan back UNDER BIDEN'S TERM, while being impeached, just for campaign bragging points.
FACT: Our military succeeded in 'withdrawing' from Bagram air base, during the cloak of one night's darkness, without local Afghans even realizing.
FACT: tRump had no intentions of evacuating and saving 125,000 of western citizens nor our Afghan allies.
China? Remind voters that General Milley had to talk down his Chinese military counterparts against a preemptive nuclear attack upon US, had tRump's insurrection succeeded.
BIDEN ALREADY NEGOTIATED THE RESUMPTION OF MILITARY COMMUNICATIONS WITH CHINA MONTHS AGO, DURING HIS SF MEETING WITH XI !! Why TF are you questioning whether it is happening?

@lesliedotheyllneverknow3510 Just listen to yourself, Leslie.
Instead of paying attention to years' of reporting from reputable news outlets (the definition of ignorance), you only believe in the constant propaganda of this POS POTUS (the definition of gullibility), time after time.
Only Trump says that the Mueller investigation was a witch hunt. Mueller actually said that there was/is collusion, but a sitting POTUS can not be indicted. Trump will be indicted as soon as he loses the next election.
Q: What is the first thing a dictator does to control his country?
A: Discredit, suppress, and imprison that nation's free press and any other political opponents.
Isn't that exactly what Trump is done from the beginning of his campaign?
'Deep state', 'globalists', and 'establishment elite media' are all subversive anarchist terms used by conspiracy theorists. Do they represent who we are, as a nation? These misguided right-wing extremists are traitors to American values and its Constitution.
No, Leslie. I'm sorry to inform you that you have been conned into believing anything this POS spouts.
PLEASE GET OUT OF YOUR ECHO CHAMBER, ASAP.

@lesliedotheyllneverknow3510 The CIA extracted the spy (aka Putin's personal US foreign policy adviser) from Russia in January 2017, just as Trump became POTUS. The spy had been reporting to the CIA on Russian interference in our election, specifically the collusion between Putin and Trump. His extraction was necessary out of fear that Trump would expose him to Putin, which would have undoubtedly caused the spy's death.
Pompeo, is Trump's new puppet head of the CIA. He (as well as all of Trump's other puppets) will say whatever Trump wants him to say. Otherwise, he would lose his job, just like anyone else who defies this mafia-style boss. Under this administration, one either pledges loyalty to Trump (above country) or faces his wrath.
"Trump has did nothing to attack the first amendment"
Trump doesn't directly attack the Constitution, because that would lose support from his base. But, he attacks and attempts to discredit our free press (and democrats) at every rally.
"it is the left and Dems and big tech that is censoring media across America"
That 's pure nonsense.
"What party is trying to amend the first and second amendment the Dems not Trump."
More nonsense. Yes, Dems are trying to stop the disgraceful gun violence that kills 40,000 Americans every year. But, they are working within Constitutional law, Congressional authority, and the electoral process in order to accomplish that. Trump and 'his' Republican party cares nothing about the Constitution. That's why the courts repeatedly shoot down his crazy executive orders.
Leslie, neither of us will ever come close to changing the other's mind. For now, that only leaves us with the option of agreeing to disagree. But, Trump's lawlessness has energized Dems to turn out like a tsunami against him, on election day. We represent the majority of voters, so he will lose in the landslide.
Meanwhile, he will lose most of the current lawsuits against him and the numerous Congressional investigations will expose his crimes against our nation. I hope you have a big crying towel. I'll be watching with some popcorn.
You have my sympathy and regards.😎

@lesliedotheyllneverknow3510 Been waiting for your reply, but didn't receive a notification.🤔 Started feeling guilty about my comments about kicking our kids out @ 18. Thought maybe it hit you a little too close to home. I apologize if that is the case. Of course, I was speaking in general terms, not personally.
I was going to send you excerpts from a Politico article, which you inspired me to fact check America's annual contributions to NATO. You were correct about us contributing more, although so did other members and the increase is very modest. The article, along with many others, debunks Trump's claim of 70%-90% of NATO funding. His figures actually reflect America's total military budget worldwide. You can Google it for yourself, if you wish.
Now, you sound as if you are speaking as a European, on behalf of Europeans. How long have you lived in Europe? Are you there serving in the military and living on base, surrounded by and mainly socializing with other American troops? I only ask because your comments don't reflect any European attitudes that I have ever heard. Most of them view us as the 'ugly Americans', because of our arrogance, spoiled childlike whining about everything (slow restaurant service, for example), and mostly because being military bullies throughout the world.
Yes, I know that Europe has been overwhelmed with Muslim refugees and immigrants, which has changed a lot of attitudes. GB is going through its Brexit and economic crisis. But, the England I remember was very multicultural, with many bi-racial marriages. Even the Bobbies didn't carry guns back then. Yanks and Aussies were still their 'colonial cousins'. "The only problem with Yanks is that they are over-paid,over-sexed, and over 'ere." (Carry over from WWII, when our soldiers used chocolate Hershey bars to lure the Lasses into bed, while their husbands were fighting Hitler in Europe.)
If you believe that the USA is no longer a racist country, then you must not be aware of the proliferation of white nationalists and KKK uprisings since Trump has been in office. He actually encourages them. Only last week, two white UofA students were arrested after beating up a black student, for no reason.
Yeah, I fully understand the purpose of the 2nd amendment, which was written shortly after the Revolutionary War, when settlers were carrying muskets. But, I really doubt that the Founding Fathers foresaw it being used to enable fellow Americans to kill 40,000 of our own countrymen every year. Besides, most assault rifles with 100 round magazines and bump stocks are owned by extremists to defend themselves against our own government (as if those weapons would stand a chance against our military).
It's purely ignorant misguided madness.
My views towards Russia has nothing to do with the MSM. Putin is a ruthless oligarch. He is playing Trump like a fiddle. So is Xi and Kim.
Nuf said, for now.

@UCYNNAZD3NR18R6oipFadlvQ So, your knowledge of America is solely based upon the perspective of an outsider looking in, while trying to educate me about my own country? That is truly rich, Leslie! I'm here and have lived it, first hand. Since my retirement, I spend most of my time observing it, much as you do.
I call myself TheHermit because I have abandoned and reject the madness of this misguided society and humanity. My only contact is via these comments, entirely at my own discretion.
Climate change is causing droughts throughout the Middle East and Africa. Tribalism is causing mass migrations into Europe, breeding the recent nationalistic extremism throughout the world.
Polar icecaps are melting, causing sea rises and coastal erosion. Coral reefs are dying and the last rain forests are burning. Oceans are polluted with micro-polymers. Monsanto (Bayer) is patenting the world's seed stocks and contaminating them with RoundUp-ready GMOs.
This is only the beginning. I'm glad to be living out of the rat-race, self-sufficiently alone in the hills. It's the final stages of the famous over-populated rat experiment, where they became cannibalistic.
Since it's nighttime in the UK, I'll bid you ado.😎

@jamesleonard3674 No he isn't!
He's talking about using the ilitary to round up, detain, and deport legal immigrant spouses of US citizens, with American born children.
Project 2026 would replace hundreds of thousands of experienced Fed employees with his know-nothing loyalists, just like MYG, Boebert, Gaetz, and the rest of the 'Freedom caucus', who only take away personal freedoms and sabotage our Congress.
"You knew darn well I was a snake, before you took me in."
That thinly veiled joke' is on tRump's audiences, yet they're too stupid to realize it and always cheer. /smh

TRUMP IS A FASCIST WANNABE DICTATOR AND 2-BIT CON!!

THERE IS NO COMPARISON BETWEEN TRAITOR TRUMP AND BIDEN'S LONG LIFE OF NATIONAL SERVICE.
Joe Biden is a patriotic citizen who has stepped up to the plate to save our nation from another tRump term, because he knew that Bernie and the other Dem candidates couldn't.
Regardless of always being on point Bernie and AOC only scare 1/2 of the voters away with their ultra-progressive rhetoric. They only serve to split the Dem party, making it vulnerable to being defeated by tRump's 'loyalist' traitors.
I'm very proud of President Biden's diversified, inclusive, bipartisan, and experienced leadership, especially his BBB agenda, which includes many of Bernie's suggestions.
Grow TF up and stop crying over you loser's milk that was spilled over 2 years ago, during the 2019 primaries.
Accept the voting majority's undisputable choice, instead of behaving like some tRumptarded sore loser, still licking your broken dreams.

@rashb3994 Yes, during the semi-conscience period between sleep and waking, I have also found answers to my questions. I used to believe that is was divine knowledge. Now, I understand that the brain doesn't shut down during unconsciousness;it's more like a computer during 'sleep' or 'power saver' mode. The monitor is off, but the 'apps' are still running in the background. So, during our sleep, it is trying to make logical conclusions to whatever it doesn't understand.
IMO, this is why and how mankind conceived god(s). "If god didn't exist, it would be necessary to invent him."
Anyone who professes to speak or act in the name of a god is a very dangerous person. In 'his' name, they can justify killing (against the 10 commandments), wars, and genocide. Just look at the thousands of years of holy wars in the Middle East. 3 religions, who believe in the same god, mindlessly killing each other.

@rashb3994 Looking into the sun only proves that it causes cataracts and blindness, my friend. So it is not recommended. No doubt, after you have lost your sight, you will become very conscious of that fact.
What makes you believe that you consciousness would not have been increased anyway, while not looking into the sun? The sun is our nearest star. You're communicating with yourself.
Glad that you mentioned animals. Since they have evolved for as long as humans, what makes you believe that we are so much more intelligent? Why should we have souls, while they have not? What proof do you have that humans even have souls, that there is a god, or an afterlife? No, you can't argue that your bible tells you so, because it was only written by men after thousands of years of hear-say and was re-translated by religions to suit their agenda. After all, people need to believe that some god will punish them, unless they build the Pharaoh's pyramid. Otherwise, they would simply tell him to FO. The same philosophy applies to ornate temples and cathedrals. It takes the perception of a vengeful god to control the masses. The Caesars and pharaohs even professed to be gods.

@Oxide4000 Your comment makes 0 sense.
A 'Liberal' voter is the political opposite to a 'Conservative' voter. Both are human beings, most likely fellow US citizens, instead of enemies.
tRump's MAGA supporters are weak minded, easily misguided, and brainwashed into becoming subversive, lawless, anti-governmental enemies within, aka 'tRumptarded traitors'... the opposite of Making America Great Again, while disgracing our nation in these comments for the entire world to witness in horror at how far We the People have fallen in human decency.
A 'bot' = 'web bot', which is software that's used on the internet, often cookies, which may be maliciously tracking one's browsing activity.
A 'bot' is NOT an A.I. robot.
I AM NOT A ROBOT.
I AM A PARTIOTIC US CITIZEN, DEFENDING THE LEADERSHIP OF OUR ELECTED POTUS.
FYI: This November's election isn't about Liberals vs Conservatives, nor Democrats vs Republicans. The GOP has been hijacked by an immoral, lying, cheating, lawless, wannabe dictator, and Mafioso mob boss... the opposite of everything Conservatives, Conservatives, and the GOP has ever stood for.
This election is 100% about our democratic republic VS becoming a fascist dictatorship. Stop hating your fellow US citizens and start loving everything that has made our country great, such as respecting fair elections, which grant We the People the power to hold our politicians accountable to Constitutional law and order.

@stevec7770 Sorry to hear that you're an asswipe. But, thank you for your service.
My keyboard is the only weapon I have to defend my nation against misinformation on this battleground, Soldier. I'm only here out of patriotism for my nation.
tRump is no longer POTUS, but he still controls his GQP 'Freedom Caucus' and threatens our leaders with being 'primaried' unless they kowtow to kiss his ring and obey his every fart.
tRump is still hosting super spreader rallies to keep his anarchist cult whipped up into a violent frenzy, just like he did on Jan 6th. In fact, the Proud Boys, Oath Keepers et al have a permit to hold another 'rally' at the Capitol AGAIN this very month.
Why do you criticize me for patriotically defending my country, simply because you did it with a gun? Would you now turn that gun on your own fellow citizens to bully them into submission?
I refuse to stand down, until the anarchists stand down. Your conventional weapons are obsolete in this cyber war against domestic terrorism. This is their recruiting ground where they are brainwashing the weak minded ill informed. I'm here every day, fighting for truth, justice, and democratic law and order.
Either engage to join that battle or GTF out of my way, Soldier.

@jjj-u5o Normally, most honest people look at the person who's asking the question.
Biden's behavior is irrelevant, nor dishonest, nor illegal, nor treasonous. Don't reply with MAGA BS to the contrary.
Id you want to get into whataboutisms, then lets discuss tRump's notorious whoremongering, adultery, 34 convictions for fraud, >30,000 documented lies while in office, his mob of anarchists chanting "hang Mike Pence", stealing thousands of top secret nuclear defense docs to sell for personal profit on the global black market, aiding and abetting the enemy Taliban, Al Qaeda, and ISIS leaders by betraying 20 years' worth of our troops' blood sacrifices, just to set up Biden to take the political fall by promising them that they could have Afghanistan back, without US resistance... aka treason.
How can you be so willfully ignorant or even call yourself a patriotic US citizen?

@georgehugh3455 I'm a hermit because I reject human BS. But, I'm online daily watching the madness as it plays out.
Respectfully, you simply don't understand where Tulsi is coming from. You keep trying to label her and associate her with Obama or other politicians, even Trump. She doesn't say she would never use military force, but only after negotiations and other means have failed.
Obama didn't bomb Syria after Assad crossed the red line, because Congress denied him of that, therefor it would have been unconstitutional, but everyone blames Obama instead of Congressional Republicans.
Are you insinuating that Tulsi is a 'whiny isolationist'? Again, you don't understand anything about Tulsi Gabbard. She wants to repair our relationships with world leaders, which Trump is systematically destroying.
Why don't you go to her website, watch some of her videos, and discover that she is not the usual politician, but a very enlightened, world-wise servant to our nation, regardless of political divisions, etc, etc. Perhaps then you will understand that she is far greater than any narrow-minded pigeonhole. I guarantee that you will develop a different opinion that will do you good. Aloha!

@georgehugh3455 Interesting analysis. Pretty much identical to mine, except for Gabbards. Warren reminds me of Kermit, waving her arms around while taking the stage. She only needs Hillary's fly-catcher mouth to complete the image. (you're welcome) Their stage presence simply aren't presidential enough.
That's another thing I like about Gabbard. She presents herself with presidential authority. When she speaks, people listen and nod.
Regardless of the DNC smears, (perhaps because of) I'm seeing a lot of chatter around Tulsi. She's a giant slayer, who can effortlessly blow away anyone who attacks her, like Harris and Pete. There's no other candidate capable of beating Trump, just as you have laid it out.
Since she works across party lines and is running on a bipartisan platform, you might want to put her in your back pocket. By the time Pelosi gets finished with Trump, he will never be re-elected. I believe that he will bring the entire party down with him. I've seen where he has to bribe his Senators with campaign funds to maintain their allegiance. Eventually, they will distance themselves and run opposition campaigns against him. He already can't fully staff his cabinet and everyone that leaves testifies against him. I predict that he'll end up in prison, along with the rest of his mob.
You would actually vote for him again?

@mpetersen6 Umm, YouTube videos reach our homes VIA the Internet, so you've got that bass akwards, from the start.
YouTube shares advertising income with their 'content' publishers. Therefore, videos of 'stupid stuff' is a lucrative source of income for many, especially the hundreds of foreign channels, who use cheap DVRs to plagiarize MSM news broadcasts. You think that you're watching CNN? Check out the publisher's channel. Surprise! It's some kid in Cambodia (or anywhere else in the world) stealing the advertising income from a dozen different legitimate news outlets.
It's all about supply and demand. Insufficient demand results in YT defunding the channel. The better the title's click-bait the more suckers watch and the more money made.
While the original MSM content creators are congratulating themselves after their broadcast, the foreign impostors have already attracted thousands of views, which elevate them in the YT algorithms, placing them at the top of your home page.
IOW, if you snooze, you lose. Nowadays, hard work is for fools.

"From my point of view", that is an unborn chicken embryo in your breakfast skillet. That is a baby calf that was prematurely slaughtered for your veal steak. Does that give me the authority to take away everyone else's choice of food, based upon my personal beliefs?
Why is abortion any different, except we don't eat the embryo/fetus? "Oh, because human beings have souls," I hear you claim. Prove it, I challenge.
"Congress shall make no laws with regards to religion..." States the US Constitution. IOW, you can't make anything illegal, based upon religious beliefs. That includes abortion rights.
IMO, abortion rights is belongs to the mother, while the embryo is still inside her body and dependent upon her umbilical cord for nourishment, just like a parasite. Her body, her embryo, her right to choose what's best for both.

@johnbrown6189 Time is the undeniable, immortal, omnipotent, creator and destroyer of all things and beings in the universe, from the smallest atoms to the solar systems. Time raises mountains and erodes them into the seas.
Time determines every moment of conception, heartbeat, birth, hunger, thirst, awareness, urination, defecation, expression, joy, sorrow, education, examination, graduation, occupation, procreation, decimation, and all else in between.
"Time waits for no one."
"No one can turn back the hands of Time."
"Time is of the essence."
"Time is running out."
"The body's clock is ticking."
Don't be late.
Success depends upon obeying the signs of Time.
Ignoring the signs of Time results in failure.
"Learn from the past, live in the moment, prepare for the future."
Ancient civilizations have worshipped the Sun, Moon, and stars while seeking guidance of when to reap and sow. But those are only the clocks of Time.
Pray to Time, if you please. The answer will be the same as all other gods.
Immortals are oblivious to the petty desires and self-inflicted woes of mere immortals.
Time is god.

I disagree with Mr Zeihan's assertions that the US can only deal with one global situation at a time. This administration has very effectively rallied the nations of the free world against Putin, negotiated a fleet of nuclear powered subs with Australia; alternative SE Asian manufacturing supply chains from independence from China's, protected open trade routes around Taiwan, the S China seas, the Indian ocean, the gulf of Adan, Israeli war with Hamas, Ukrainian war, strengthening NATO, attacks in Iraq, and much much more.
The Federal Reserve has nothing to do with these situations. Sec of State Blinken conducts most the the negotiations.

The House Republicans make $174,000 annually.
"The average cost for a family of four is $7,095 per month, which is $85,139 per year. -Feb 7, 2022"
Median male + female US income is $111,020 per year.
$85,139 + 30% = $110,680.70 post "Fair Tax" cost of living.
$111,020 - $110,680.7 = $339.30 spare per year, average couple
Congress: $174,000 - $110,680.70 = $63,319.30 + perks to play
$1Million: $1,000,000 - $110,680.70 = $889,319.30 = 11.07% tax.
Their filthy rich political donors love it!
Average folks get screwed.
Old folks will simply die, after losing their SS benefits.
Under educated young folks won't be able to compete against private schooled rich kids.
I hope that the Q-nut voters are paying attention to the idiot Reps they've elected to make these decisions..

Lies vs myth. Both are false. Truth matters, but human perceptions of truth evolves with knowledge.
Evolution of all species is scientifically provable by archeological evidence as being factually true, which has debunked biblical mythologies.
Many ancient cultures have worshipped the sun, moon, and celestial stars, understanding that they were subject to the seasonal cycles of time. But, they were only observing celestial clocks of time.
Time is the immortal, omnipotent, creator and destroyer of all living beings, who have ever/will ever live.
Time is the true god, beyond human comprehension.
Pray to Time, if you please. You will receive the same response as from any other god.
Immortals are oblivious to mere mortal woes and desires of our own creation.

Read this & weep, tRumptards:
FEBRUARY 24, 2023
"Months after the Justice Department combed through former President Donald Trump's private estate in Mar-a-Lago, another box containing a handful of classified records mysteriously turned up, despite several rounds of searches of the property by federal agents and aides, people familiar with the matter told The Guardian and CNN on Friday.
Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigators have spent the past few weeks interviewing a Trump aide who copied classified materials from the box in question, using her phone to transfer them to a laptop. The aide gave a voluntary interview, and prosecutors then subpoenaed the password to the laptop, which she provided, one of the sources told CNN. "
Obviously, tRump was hiding those docs on a cloud server to sell copies to the highest bidder on the global black market of our enemies.
TRUMP'S A TRAITOR!!!
LET'S GO JACK!!!

Ramaswamy is the 1st generation authoritarian offspring of a foreign family's culture, who would create even more national chaos, division, and problems in the world thaan mafioso don, the con.
President Biden has literally saved millions of lives from COVID, millions of families from being evicted into the streets, our nation's economy, and global respect by leading NATO, while strengthening it and has passed 10 years worth of climate change mitigating legislation through Congress during only 1/2 a term, with only 1/2 of Congressional support.

Is Sgt. Maxey also a member of AG Barr's private militia of multiagency anonymous storm troopers, who are being deployed to these riots? AFAIK, last December AG Barr launched operation 'Relentless Pursuit' to combine the resources of local police, state, and federal law enforcement entities into a task force, capable of monitoring and apprehending gangs and radical extremist groups.
Apparently, now Barr has recruited individuals from those taxpayer funded agencies to create his own private secret illegal militia, readily deploy-able to any major city in the USA.
@KGW News, how about a followup interview with one of Barr's militia leaders?
WHOA! @ 56:00 The reporter is censored from discussing anything about the 'federal officers'!!! That's against the 1st Amendment's freedom of the press!!!
Why does our existing taxpayer funded and approved law enforcement structure need to be converted into a secret militia, controlled by Barr (Trump's personal henchman). How large is Barr's militia? How are they being trained? What weapons are they authorized to use? What is their mission? Who is funding them? Are they preparing to defend Trump against being physically removed from the WH on January 20th?
IOW, are taxpayers unknowingly funding a wannabe monarch's coup d'etat against our democratic republic in February?

Wikipedia:
"Personal life
Since becoming a public figure, Boebert has told reporters that her parents divorced when she still lived in Altamonte Springs. But no father is listed on her birth certificate, nor are there records of such a divorce in Seminole County. Boebert's mother filed multiple paternity suits between 1987 and 1990 alleging that pro wrestler Stan Lane is Boebert's father. A paternity test Lane took in 1990 ruled him out as the father, and the suit was dismissed. In 2012 Boebert's mother sent the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation a letter asking for further investigation, but there is no record that the bureau took any action. A Twitter account attributed to Boebert's mother and comments attributed to Boebert and her mother on YouTube videos and blog posts between 2008 and 2013 continued to allege that Lane is Boebert's father and argue with an account attributed to Lane's wife, Maria.[123]
Boebert and her husband Jayson live in Silt, Colorado.[124] Before they opened a restaurant, Jayson Boebert worked in oil and gas fields.[7] They have four sons.[16] She became a born-again Christian in 2009.[17]
In 2010, Boebert's neighbors called police because they believed her pit bulls were threatening their dogs. Boebert received a ticket for dog code violations.[125]
In 2015, Boebert was cited for misdemeanor disorderly conduct at a music festival for telling officers that their arrest of a couple of underage drinkers was unconstitutional because the teenagers had not received Miranda warnings. As she was being handcuffed, according to deputies' reports, Boebert tried to twist away from police, saying that "she had friends at Fox News" and that the arrest would be "national news." She twice failed to appear in court on the charge. The petty offense was dismissed because the Mesa County district attorney's office believed a jury would not convict her.[126]
In 2016, Boebert was cited for careless driving and operating an unsafe vehicle. On February 13, 2017, she was arrested and booked in Garfield County Jail for failure to appear in court on these charges. She pleaded guilty to the unsafe vehicle charge." smh

What about the 6 months worth of constant reruns of those panic-crazed Afghans, who broke through Karzai airport's security perimeter, flooded onto the runway, while trying to ride a C30 cargo plane?
That was stopped within only 1 day, but was drummed into the minds of Americans as being Biden's fault and failure.
Yes 12 US troops died during that 3 week period, from one suicide bomber, in the middle of a terrorist coup. But how many times did MSM remind US that EVERY 3 weeks, ~2,000 US citizens are murdered by gun violence in our own neighborhoods? How many times did they explain that tRump set Biden up to take the fall by promising the Taliban they could have Afghanistan, IF they stopped attacking US forces until after the 2020 election?
How many times has MSM mentioned that US inflation is the lowest in the world, under Biden's leadership?
Yes, it's ALL about putting things into proper perspective in order to create proper perceptions.
Biden hasn't failed US, MSM has failed US. Now, US democracy is failing. /smh

Why does MSM have to pit one person's account against another's?
Obviously, during that morning, tRump discussed deploying 10,000 troops against BLM protestors with Esper, who shot down that suggestion. So, tRump dropped that idea by the time he spoke with Barr in the afternoon.
Furthermore, there's a huge difference between suggesting the deployment of troops, as per Esper, and actually issuing the order, as denied by Barr. That's not a discrepancy in their accounts. Barr simply didn't know what he didn't know. Du~uh, Margaret.🙄

@chrisrichardson8881 You didn't bother watching the video, that I provided for you, did you? Bloomberg worked his way up from a parking lot attendant, through college, earned a degree in computer science, a MBA at Harvard, then got a job on Wall Street. He developed a computer system for tracking and analyzing stocks, which he sold to investment firms. The video tells his story much better than I.
I'm a former Tulsi supporter, donated to her campaign, and am very aware of her military background, campaign status, DNC obstruction, MSM sidelining, and current polling. I would still be supporting her campaign if she had the slightest hope in hell of winning the nomination.
Meanwhile, we have an idiotic mob boss ruining our country, attempting a coup (with the assistance of Congressional Republicans), of which he will succeed unless he is stopped in November. He just conducted an unauthorized missile attack against 5 'Iranian-backed militia' locations in Iraq and Syria, while Iran, Russia, and China are conducting joint military exercises off the coast of Iran.
Please, do some research on Bloomberg. He is a non-partisan philanthropist and our only hope of stopping Trump.

Why are you blaming Biden for this? For over 7 years, tRump and Republicans have been broadcasting to the world that the US border is wide open, for easy crossing.
WELL, SURPRISE, SURPRISE, SURPRISE!!!
THE WORLD WATCHES AMERICAN TV, EVEN TRANSLATED INTO LOCAL LANGUAGES!!
Checks & balances, you decry? It's Congress' responsibility to legislate effective immigration laws, NOT our POTUS. Instead of doing their jobs to solve the illegal immigration problem, Repukes have been deliberately causing it, then blaming Dems.

That was the time prior to tRump's administration gaslighting US about COVID, prior to his needlessly killing 400,000 of his own anti-vaxxers, prior to his national shutdowns, prior to global supply chain disruptions, prior to his attack upon our Capitol to deny the 7 million vote majority lead of 81 million voters, prior to his being convicted of 34 counts of election fraud to conceal his whoremongering from voters, prior to his stealing thousands of top secret nuclear defense docs to sell on the global black market for personal profit.
tRump left office with our nation on its knees, massive unemployment, kids home schooling, empty grocery shelves and over 9% inflation.
Mess, what mess? Biden/Harris' administration has restored our lives, more than restored lost jobs, brought inflation back down to <3%, created the strongest post-pandemic economy in the world, and continuous stock market records.
'Noone can turn back the hands of time.'

@mrbr0wn215 Your video link is nothing more than a lame smear attempt by a commentator, misrepresenting Bloomberg's words, taken out of context.
Fred Trump, the don's father, was a member of the KKK, had a Mafia business partner and connections to the Nazis. Look at all 3 of their biographies on Wikipedia if you care at all about learning the truth about their DNA, then come back for a chat.
Since your attention span is limited, the Trumps basically have lengthy criminal rap sheets, while Bloomberg has awards and accolades, including an honorable Royal knighthood from Queen Elizabeth II.
Bloomberg is an honorable, decent patriot defending our national freedom and democracy. Trump is a lying, corrupt traitor attempting a coup d'etat to become a dictator with unlimited term limits.

@jillfeatherman5523 Thank you for the data. I like facts and figures, if they're true. I remember the Cares Act being a Dem stimulus package, pushed through Congress by Pelosi and Schumer.
When tRump signed it, he made side notes, disagreeing with certain terms, which is unConstitutional. The edits should have been returned to Congress for their approval.
One of the provisions was to have a Congress appointed Inspector General overseeing the distribution of funds, to ensure small businesses were the recipients. Trump fired the IG and put Mnuchin in charge, who dished out most of the funding to his corporate crony political donors, like trick or treat candy.
When exposed, Mnuchin asked some of the funds to be returned and correctly given to the struggling businesses it was intended for.
Republicants opposed both bills and McConnell lowered the second distribution to your $900B figure.
Yes, I remember tRump signing the $1200 stimulus checks, as if the taxpayers own money were from him, personally. He always takes credit for other people's accomplishments, such as developing the vaccines in record time. "Operation Warp Speed! Woohoo! smh He didn't even put on a lab coat.
Warp Speed was headed by Jared, who hired a bunch of his incompetent cronies that failed miserably.
In November, tRump's Big Lie gained traction, numerous official recounts took place and Rudy made a fool of himself trying to convince nonpartisan courts of election fraud, which was dismissed by 60 due to lack of evidence.
During December, AG Barr resigned rather than implicate the DoJ in the Big Lie. tRump's administration was refusing to release classified information for the transfer of Executive power to Biden's.
tRump had neglected replenishing stocks of masks and PPE supplies, which had been depleted by Ebola during Obama's term.
He had also dismantled the department of Customs and Immigration. So, Biden started out with no supplies and no vaccine distribution networks.
Refugees were stranded in primitive camps along the Mexican side of the border, without drinking water, food, income, utilities, toilets, electricity, nor shelter from the severe winter (remember the Texas power outage?) They became easy prey for the publicized human traffickers and drug cartels. This was unnecessary and inhumane. Those who made it to BP facilities weren't being processed by ICE, because it no longer existed. Biden took the blame and took care of the problem. ICE is functioning and refugees are being processed, again.
I'll have to fact check your 1.6 mil vaccinations per day by Jan 20th data.
How many of those 206,000 deaths were people who refused to wear masks, get vaccinated, nor practice CDC guidelines? Those are the only ones still dying now.
"Everything you claim Biden has done for you only looks better than before because you are a blue team no matter who kind of person"
Now, you've gone too far. You have no idea what my political position is, nor who I am.
"who can’t seem to be objective about anything not on that team."
The Hermit is not a team player. I'm an independent, obviously well informed individual who watches the world everyday from my wireless connection. I only want what's best for my country, regardless of political label. I'm as moderate as any other normal US citizen.
But, I won't sit silent while a mafioso mob boss/wannabe dictator/king of the world overthrows our democracy. I could write another chapter on tRump's incompetence and corruption. But, been there & done that too much already.
"Grow up." That arrogant condescension is entirely uncalled for. It was a civil debate, until your finale. FYI, I'm 68 years old and comfortably retired on SS and an earned pension. smh

@Queenwraith All professionals give speeches via teleprompt. But, tRump could never stay on message. All US Presidents have minders, personal assistants, and Secret Service agents everywhere for security.
No one is telling Biden not to answer. His little joke about getting into trouble is only because he is self conscious about his speech impediment and doesn't like public speaking. That's his excuse for stopping. Old people carry notes, instead of personal organizers or cell phones. Hasn't been a problem for 3 centuries, until now.
Biden was a huge success at the UN for putting the USA back in charge of the free world. He also confronted Putin about cyber attacks and election meddling.
Yeah, kick an old man, why don't you? If you play your cards right and get vaccinated, you might live that long yourself. Old equals experience and sound judgement. tRump understood absolutely nothing about representing the entire population, only his team, as if it is some winner take all game. He shits on anyone whom he can't use for wealth or attention.
tRump can't even drink from a glass, which is an indication of paralysis from a stroke. He is a political idiot, undisciplined, rude, vindictive, narcissistic, and extremely volatile. Those are not the traits of a public servant and world respected POTUS.
But, none of this even touchs on the point of tRump's mafioso mob boss behavior, straight out of the Godfather movies. He is surrounded by lackies and henchmen, has absolutely no moral core, and destroys everyone and everything in his path.
Thanks to tRump, we've had an insurrection, Nazis and radicalized white nationalists marching through our streets and an obstructive Republican party that kills every bill in Congress, pushes the Big Lie, undermines the credibility of US elections and our democracy, and believes in BS Qanon conspiracies that Dems eat babies! WTF!! No integrity whatsoever. GQP is history.
You seriously want more of this BS, even if accomplished by lethal force!?
WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!!

It's blatantly obvious that tRump is a mafioso don, who has been bullying people all of his life.
It is blatantly obvious that he cowered AG Garland into avoiding charging him, until AFTER the midterms, when his inexperienced 'loyalist' seditious conspirators hijacked Congress to sabotage the House, even after the Jan 6th House committee had done the DOJ's investigations, hundreds of interviews, and provided 3 publicly televised hearings with witness testimonies.
Garland did NOTHING until after tRump forced his hand by announcing another campaign, to claim political campaign interference immunity.
Even then, cowardly Garland simply passed the threatening case for Jack Smith to handle.
Cannon is letting tRump off the hook after being caught red-handed exposing stolen classified nuclear defense docs to unauthorized civilians.
Smith's DC case is most likely being pushed back past the 2024 election.
The radical right wing SCOTUS sure as hell won't hold the don accountable with a 14th Amendment appeal.
Marianne Williamson, RFK jr, and Manchin's 'No Labels' party will inevitably peel off enough Biden/Harris votes to ensure tRump's victory to ensure Executive immunity and 'retribution' to become our fascist dictator. /smh
NO JUSTICE, NO DEMOCRACY!

@johnlarson5255 Thank you for the respectful advice, but no thanks. Been there, done that. But, since you're not spewing hyperbolic hateful adolescent insults at me (like most tRumptards), perhaps we can have a civil political discussion, if you can handle hearing my honest POV.
First of all, please allow me to properly introduce myself, instead of presuming to know, classify, and label me based upon your own perceptions.
I grew up on an Ohio farm until I graduated from HS in 1970. I was a Sunday choir singer at the Nazarene church, until I was group pressured to beg the Lord for forgiveness, just because I went to a school dance. I moved to sunny LA as soon as I graduated to check out those bikinis the Beach Boys sung about. That's when I started experimenting with drugs and questioning the status quo. I had friends from different races, including blacks, Mexicans, and Asians. After Nam and the Kent State massacre, I wasn't interested in the government nor politics.
After 7 years of becoming a machinist/tool & die maker in the aircraft industry, I happened upon a change of career that took me to England for 10 years, where I met all sorts of people from all walks of life. That's when I realized that the world knows as much (if not more) about the US as we do, but from a nonAmerican perspective.
I learned that our invincible military is frowned upon for invading nations for oil or nation building to impose our lifestyle upon others. Such arrogant bullies are we.
I also studied alternative religions and philosophies, such as Buddhism. (Recently, I've become an atheist).
Upon returning to the states ~1990, I became a computer technician at a local college for 18 years, until I retired in 2015.
Now, I'm a maker of IoT devices for automated climate control of an aquaponic greenhouse.
Like I aid, been there, done that. Have experienced more than enough of mankind and US society than I are to. Now, I observe it from the end of a wireless connection. smh
This is my only method of communication to others, so yes, I'm a hermit by choice.
I hope that blows away your condescending prejudices regarding who I am or whether you have any right to advise me about jack shit.
I've read your comments and they all sound like Fox Spews divisive political propaganda. IMO, you are the one who needs to get out of your silo more often. How many Dems, blacks, Hispanics, Europeans, or Asians do you associate on a personal level? Why do you presume to know the minds of people you know nothing about? Then, you try to slice and dice them into your pigeon hole. You're a very arrogant person, aren't you?
Yet, you're so naive that you still don't see through tRump's BS. The man is nothing more than a 2 bit con man, who was borne with a gold spoon up his ass. Wit an allowance of $20,000 per month, he could bully any kid in school. He is well known for cheating throughout his life, whether it was on exams, wives, bribing politicians, stiffing subcontractors, bankrupting Casinos, tax fraud, golf, Russian collusion, or his own supporters.
The don behaves like a mafioso mob boss, with a team of lawyers to intimidate anyone who gets in his way. His only loyalty and trust is his own offspring, upon whom he is totally dependent. tRump is not even a good team player. He has to personally micromanage everyone and everything. He's never been held responsible for anything in his life, except for taking credit for the accomplishments of theirs. Can't stand listening to his grandiose postering and ridiculous exaggerations of himself and ruthless attacks against his foes.
tRump knows absolutely nothing about the Constitution, Congressional procedures, International politics, nor nonpartisan public service; IOW, all the important essentials of being POTUS.
tRump's initial maneuver was to choose the most easily corruptible political party, that could be bought. Then, he ruthlessly assaulted he other 'team' with 5 years of extremely divisive rhetoric, like. "those radical left wing socialists, who only want to take away your freedom and destroy our wonderful country" blah, blah, blah like a recording on a loop, brainwashing his weak minded, sheltered evangelicals who believed that he cared enough to help them, instead of fleecing them for donations and votes.
Yes, Don the con can put on quite an amusing show.He reads his audience well and keeps spewing their red meat, seasoned however they want it. I digress.
The problem with lying at public political rallies is that the MSM is recording promises, fact checking rhetoric, and reporting their opinions. So, we all saw how tRump handled the 'crooked MSM, not telling people the truth". BTW, that's typically a dictator's initial means of taking control of a country.
Once no one trusts the press, who can tell the difference between truth and lies? Isn't that precisely the state of our nation following tRump's administration?
Once elected, tRump surrounded himself with his hiers (to his envisioned throne!) and mob henchmen, like Giuliani, Barr, Patreas, Miller, Bannon, etc, etc.
Then, tRump needed to control his Congressional nemesis of political oversight. So,he invited every Republican Congressman into the Oval office for his 'embrace' to seal their pledge of unwavering loyalty... or else. IOW, the Godfather gave them an offer they couldn't refuse. Frpm that point forward, tRump owned the Republican party and demanded their obedience, just like the NY mafia's protection racket.
You know most of the rest. But, my issue is with the man and his enablers, not with people who have different POVs to myself. I hate how tRump has divided our nation to the point of civil war threats and the racial violence of his energized white nationalist supremacists. (queue BLM whataboutism, smh) There's no denying that tRump incited the Capitol insurrection attempt to obstruct the transfer of Presidential power with lethal force.
How can you be so naive and blinded by his bullshit to not see these truths to be so self evident?
I'm not the problem. Dems are only defending Constitutional law by holding tRump accountable. Their enemy is my enemy and for all the right reasons, human decency, law, and order.
They represent and defend everything that makes America great, like helping the downtrodden, instead of dishing out $2 Trillion tax breaks to billionaires, in exchange for political donations. "Pay my campaign costs and I'll repay you with taxpayer revenues." <wink&nod>
It's 5:00 am and time to crash. Later.

@jamiefain66 Only because it was over your head. You should be less partisan and more attentive to this administration. Try watching the WH briefings to educate yourself about what is going on in the real world and why.
Manchin is obstructing huge investments into our people, families, education, small businesses, farmers, children, infrastructure, broadband, smart grid, solar, wind, and millions of jobs.
Why? Because there's a 50/50 partisan divide in congress and by being the holdout, for whatever BS excuse. Manchin can get whatever pork he wants.

Mafioso don hired Walt Nauta, an ex-Navy 'personal minder' to work in the White House.
Nauta admited to having uploaded photocopies of top secret classified docs (thousands?) to a cloud server during that period.
Nauta moved with 'the don' to Mara Lago.
Printouts of classified docs were found in tRump's office inside his desk.
Hundreds of boxes of classified docs were found in non-secured areas, plus shuffled around for concealment from the DOJ, FBI, & National Archives.
Logical Conclusions:
A) Nauta was the gatekeeper of tRump's online secret stash of stolen classified nuclear defense docs, potentially worth unlimited wealth.
B) The 'don' would appraise downloaded hard copies, prior to putting them up for auction on the global black market, then display 'proof of ownership' to potential bidders via phone cam.
C) Once the highest bid was confirmed to being deposited in a clandestine tax haven account, Nauta would provide security access to the doc(s) on the cloud server, then store tRump's hard copies in the boxes at Mara Lago, as 'sales records'.
D) Those 'sales records' were no longer of value to trump so he turned those boxes over to the FBI, while playing shell games to conceal the rest, which still hadn't been 'cashed in'. However, they were still found.
E) While the FBI & DOJ have been sniffing around Mara Lago for hard copies, how many more are STILL stored on cloud storage, being maintained by who knows who, with mirrored sites who knows where, being hacked by Russia, China, Iran, N Korea, ...?
Gee, why was mafioso don's attorney/henchman sitting in the courtroom during Nauta's testimony? 🤔

The 'godfather' summoned all of the Congressional Republicans into the Oval Office as soon as he arrived. Trump understands that 'every an has his price' and has the resources to pay it. Obviously, he gave them an offer they couldn't refuse. His 'embrace' sealed their oath of allegiance to him, above party and nation. That's why he has absolute control over the Senate and House Republicans. Woe to anyone who breaks their vow by not holding the Trump Party line. Yes, I said Trump Party because he owns the Republicans.
This is the only possible explanation for their shameless behavior throughout the impeachment proceedings. This is also the only explanation of McConnell's public statement that he would follow the White House counsel's guidance and that there is 0 chance of impeachment passing the Senate. This is illegal and unconstitutional.
After the backlash of a failed impeachment, Trump will win the election, Dems will lose the House and a vindicated Trump will be unstoppable. Within only 4 years, Trump and his motley mob of Cabinet henchmen will have successfully conducted a coup against our democracy, without firing a shot. He has already floated ending term limits and is poised to become America's first dictator. Of course, his ego would prefer the title of 'King of the World.' Then, his heirs in waiting could inherit his 'kingdom'. Bada-bing. Just like that.
You think I'm crazy? Who's gonna stop him? His only check on power is the Dem controlled House and they have already failed, simply because everyone dismissed it as only a hyper-partisanship. Guess again. Tick-tock.......(crickets chirping)

I'm Biden's greatest fan. But, Dems have been shortsighted and without prudence by putting all of their hopes on one old man, who could have a stroke or heart attack at any moment.
Yes, Biden's administration have been excellent, saved our nation, rallied the free world of nations against fascism, created the world's strongest post-pandemic economy, yadda, yadda...
Only fools would ride a faithful old workhorse into the ground, literally.
Past laurels are not guarantees of being alive tomorrow.
Well done, Mr President. Thank you, Sir. Mission accomplished. Enjoy your retirement, knowing that no one else could have done a better job.
Now, please pass the baton to a younger, faster, more energetic, passionate runner.
Raskin/AOC 2024. Constitutional scholar, House Jan 6 prosecutor + a fierce environmental warrior, and black female VP.
No disruption of agenda, policies, nor mid-election stumble. Stronger debaters, inspiring, positive, free of all old baggage. Move forward, instead of kicking the good ole workhorse for every ounce of life.

American, but NOT POTUS. Your way could ignite a nuclear WW III, not only against Russia, but opportunistic China, Iran, & N. Korea.
Big talk leads to big mistakes.
President Biden is a seasoned Congressman, VP, & POTUS, who is being briefed and advised by the best, which excludes your POV.
Make your objections know at the ballot box, instead of publicly disgracing our nation in front of the world.

@AntiAtheismIsUnstoppable You Trumptards have a lot of damn gall defending a phony, lawless mob boss, who can't spell nor function without the support of his children and henchmen. Thanks to Trump's stranglehold on the cowardly Republican Congressmen, he only needs to be re-elected by idiots like you, plus a few more House seats, to eliminate term limits (as he has already illustrated on Twitter) and succeed with their coup d'etat, making Trump America's 1st dictator, or as he fantasizes King of the World, with his heirs already poised to inherit his crown and kingdom, aka USA.
Trump is a traitor to our democracy and so is anyone who votes for him.
BTW, what about the white supremacist who ran over and killed the girl in Charlottesville and the one who massacred the folks in the 'child trafficking' pizza parlor or the ones who open fire inside houses of worship? Where is your Constitutional freedom of worship, scumbag?

What a snide, negative, piece of irresponsible reporting! /smh
Our POTUS is travelling the world, respectfully leading our allies against Russia, without igniting WWIII.
Now, he is confronting MBS on human rights, strengthening our influence in the region, and negotiating lower fuel costs for US consumers.
What's not to like, except for a bunch of self appointed, opinionated pundits who only want to appease a sick audience who enjoys watching a good, decent, life long public servant being kicked into the ground.
Never mind that he has saved millions of lives and is trying to save the planet for future generations.
Not one peep about the do nothing GQP Congressional obstructionist party, creating a dysfunctional legislature.
NEWS FLASH!!! THE MIDTERMS ARE ONLY A FEW MONTHS AWAY! But, let's kick the leader of the Democratic party one more time to ensure that Republicants destroy our democratic republic. /smh

@Plainsburner Neither. Why do you call Republicans 'conservatives'? There are conservatives and liberals within both political parties. I have no problems with a two party political system, whereby opposites debate their difference and come to a moderate compromise in the middle. That's exactly what our founding fathers intended, finding a balance between the ebbs and flows of the opposite forces of yin and yang. This is the only true universal law of all living things.
But, now the Republican party has been conned and hijacked by Trump's fascist authoritarian mob, of whom I hate. Therefore, the Republicans are enabling Trump to overthrow our nation and become an authoritarian dictatorship.
FFS, Man; open your eyes! Yesterday is gone and November 3rd is our last chance to save our nation. Trump's mob has already infiltrated the top levels of our government, overthrown the GOP, and have Barr's private militia of storm troopers standing by in all of our major cities, ready to defend Trump from being removed on January 20th.
DeJoy was caught red handed undermining our postal system, to subvert mail in voting.
Russians are still meddling in our social media, yet Trump is only investigating his Chinese nemesis, as a distraction.
He has already suggested 4 terms and has his heirs poised to inherit the throne to HIS monarchy.

@Plainsburner Accomplishments?
Reneging on the multilateral Iranian Nuclear Treaty, which Iran was complying with, according to independent inspectors;
pulling out of the Paris Climate Accord, which is vital to life on Earth; reversing EPA regulations for clean air and water; giving the top 1% tax breaks, so that they could purchase back their own stocks to float Wall Street (his only claim to fame is a scam); kowtowing to Putin, who cosigned Trump's $4 Billion loans with Deutsche Bank (the only Bank willing to loan to Trump); abandoning our Kurdish freedom fighters to be slaughtered on the ISIS battlefield in N Syria, after a phone call to Erdogan; assigning key cabinet positions to his own children and mafioso henchmen; overthrowing the Republican party; extorting personal political favors from Ukraine, while they are under Russian invasion; attempting a coup d'etat against our nation. Of course, I could carry on; oh yes, you were saying something about Trump's great accomplishments?
This must be a humongous secret accomplish if it counterbalances treason, so by all means, please elaborate, dear Trumptard.

@Plainsburner We weren't funding a totalitarian regime. We agreed to give the Iranians their own money that had been frozen in banks, because of our previous sanctions. IOW, we'll give you your money, if you stop making weapons grade uranium and allow independent multi-lateral inspections. The deal could have been renewed beyond 2024 and was working. Now, Iran is completely out of control and doing business with China and Russia, while harassing ships throughout their area.
Russia also replaced US in Syria, reaping the rewards of our bloody efforts; same is happening in Iraq and Afghanistan. All of our dead and $Trillions spent for Putin.
PCA only put nations on the right track, it didn't propose the impossible, just an agreement among nations to try their best.
Fracking is only an interim step towards energy independence, as per T. Boone Pickens.
The technology is available, but American will power is not. China is leaving US in their dust, with better electronics, cheaper solar panels, better battery technology, and most important: Government Funded Industries.
Americans only have their own egos, professing to be more intelligent than their genetically identical forefathers from around the world.
CO2 emissions have only declined because of nations being under lock down, with minimal travel. This clearly proves that mankind could easily stop global warming, simply by ditching internal combustion engines. But, it's not only CO2, there's polluted water, all of those pesticides, and GMOs in our food chains. Factory farming, plastic packaging, shipping pollution, micro-polymers in our seafood, etc, etc.
Criminal justice reforms? I'm pretty sure that was a Democratic initiative. Prisons for profit where simple pot possession can be elevated to life, because of minor 'insubordination' offenses? Takes the 'captive regular customer' to another level doesn't it? How about the ICE contractors who were recently exposed for mass hysterectomies?
Please, do carry on. Make your best pitch and I'll keep knocking it out of the park. This is fun.

@Plainsburner Yes, nuclear power would be great... if there were a safe way to dispose of the spent rods, instead of burying them under mountains. Then, there's that nasty little dirty weapons black market.
We are also in agreement about what should have happened after 9/11; i.e. go in, take out Al Qaeda, then get out. But IMO, Obama was doing his best to wind down the wars, while protecting our allies. Then, ISIS filled in Al Qaeda's void, which extended our time there. I simply disagree with Trump's snap decision to evacuate w/o notice, even to our own generals. He never does things by the book, because he has never read the book. What a waste of our soldiers lives, innocent Muslim lives, and $Trillions of taxpayer money that could have helped so many here at home, plus avoided the 2008 economic meltdown.
10 years ago, I was an Obama fan (still am). How could you allow yourself to fall/wallow into Trump's cesspool? Why in the world would you enable him to literally destroy our country? We have never been this divided, whipped up to the point of anarchy or civil war.
Divide and conquer is the name of Trump's game of thrones.

@Plainsburner "Us (us us us us ) and Them (them them them them); and after all, we're all only ordinary men." Pink Floyd.
IMO, all of humanity is 99.5% the same DNA, regardless of color. Racism is nothing more than petty, barbaric tribalism. Ewe, look at those weird clothes and long hair...
OMG, the Jones just bought a new car, let's get down to the dealership, honey.
Just like the fall of Rome, America is failing from within due its own arrogance, ignorance, and corruption.
C'est la vie, right? Who cares if Trump bankrupts my Social Security by 2023? Some fat cat will scoop up my possessions for pennies on the dollar after I'm dead, right?
You are truly oblivious of Trump's coup d'etat, aren't you?
Wikipedia Def: "A coup or coup d'état is the removal of an existing government from power, usually through violent means. Typically, it is an illegal, unconstitutional seizure of power by a political faction, the military, or a dictator. Many scholars consider a coup d'état successful when the usurpers seize and hold power for at least seven days."
"...well the obvious conclusion is that revolution is necessary to remake society..."
This is what you want?
You're willing to freely discard all international commitments and throw away our Constitutional laws and order out with the swamp water, only to find yourself in the middle of a cesspool... based upon Trump's empty promises and thousands of lies? WTF is wrong with you? TDS?
Trump is a mad man, insane, a loose nuke, an immoral con man and I my greatest fear is that too many people, just like you are too naive to foresee the consequences of another 4 years of this BS. How many more thousands of innocent Americans have to die before you get it?
I truly wish you and your family good health. But, I can tell that this conversation is just another waste of my time.
Best regards.

The grim reaper has spoken; but not a word about the UN climate report, how to save mankind from itself, nor about tRump's $2 Trillion unfunded tax break for the filthy rich. No, Moscow Mitch only puts together an endless string of doom and gloom, hyperbolic, right wing, phrases to demonize Dems, who are only trying to help the unemployed, families, small businesses, children, the nation's economy and the world.
How did we get in such a dire situation to need such a large investment? Because of Republicant climate deniers, Reaganomics, Bush's wasteful ME wars, petroleum lobbyists, and science denying evangelicals.
No matter how nonpartisan I try to be, the GOP are always on the wrong side of every policy, while Dems are trying their best to be responsible, fair, and just for everyone's benefit.
Yeah, I said it. Disagree? Then, show me one Republicant bill that helps people out of poverty, increases the minimum wage, makes education and healthcare more affordable, purifies drinking water, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, or saves lives against COVID. ZZZzzz...

I fully agree that the Republican party has been hijacked by tRumptarded traitors. I would NEVER vote for a Republican, especially now that their only platform is demonizing Dems.
But, despite what I'm witnessing from Congressional Republicants, I also refuse to prejudge and label all Republicans as being traitors, religious bigots, Q-nuts, anarchists, and radicalized white supremacists.
Only 30% of Republicans are tRump supporters, the cancer of their party, which is less than 1/2 of American voters. 30% * 1/2 = 15%, an insignificant minority of weak-minded, crazy-ass, misguided nobodies.
Our democratic values of opposing parties, with earnest civil debates until compromises are agreed upon must be respected. Fellow US citizens should be respected instead of demonizing each other. Republicans and Democrats should respect each other's positions. We're all in the same boat.
The majority only needs to throw the 15% of tRumptarded traitors overboard, in the middle of a shark infested ocean.
"Love thy neighbor."
Hate only tRumptarded traitors, because they deserve it. Republicans are a necessary evil, of which must be tolerated for our democracy. Otherwise, Dems are no better than tRumptards.

@TriciaDeBary Google it for yourself.
MBS, "I've got Jared in my pocket." As soon as tRump was out of the Oval office, MBS paid Jared $B cash, for a shell "investment company".
Wikipedia:
On 2 October 2018, Khashoggi entered the Saudi consulate in Istanbul to obtain documents related to his planned marriage but was never seen leaving. Amid news reports claiming that he had been killed and dismembered inside, an inspection of the consulate, by Saudi and Turkish officials, took place on 15 October. Initially, the Saudi government denied the death, but following shifting explanations for Khashoggi's death, Saudi Arabia's attorney general eventually stated that the murder was premeditated.[16][17] By 16 November 2018, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) had concluded that Mohammed bin Salman ordered Khashoggi's assassination.[18][19] The murder has created tensions between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, including calls for the U.S. to sever diplomatic ties with the kingdom.

Excellent intro monologue, Jen
TBH, these election results, indicating low Dem turnout, simply don't jive with the enthusiasm we witnessed in those packed out stadiums.
Was there really low dem turnout or were Dem ballots thrown out by local Republican election officials? We know that one state's election board removed mail in ballots to a remote location for presumably parsing and counting in isolation of bipartisan oversight. How many other red states did the same?
We know all about the 'Green Bay Sweep' of fake electors in order to deny the majority choice of We the People.
Several Red states and their election officials (as ell as Congressional seditious conspirators) were caught red handed after the 2020 election.
Why wouldn't they be better organized in their cheating this time around? Why are MSM and the DNC being so high-minded that they simply accept that these suspicious results from suspicious election officials are all kosher?
I also find it difficult to believe that any Dems would choose Project 2025, the denial of women's reproductive rights, and racist rhetoric over everything Kamala had offered. It simply flies in the face of their own interests, especially for Latinos and people of color.
Why was tRump so lackadaisical and candid, near the end of his campaign, doing so few rallies and photo op stunts. That is clear indication of the overconfidence of someone who has a hidden ace up his sleeve and already knows that he can't lose. To further that metaphor, he can never keep a secret, without revealing his winning hand to everyone around him, prior to making his play.
"We've got a secret, right Mike? But, we're not going to say what it is until after the election."
Worst poker shark ever!
"To catch a thief, you need to think like a thief."
tRump never competes fairly and always rigs the 'table' to win.
WAKE UP AND SMELL THE STENCH, DEMS! THIS IS NOT KOSHER!

Speaking of freaking people out, consider this, Leigh.
Polling indicates that voters don't want tRump nor Biden, so there's a 'uge populist hole among 2024 candidates.
So, now that Tucker Carlson is footloose, fancy free, filthy rich, and without career commitments, who will stop him, if he throws hos hat into the ring?
He already has an adoring fan base of tRump's supporters, knows how to work them, is younger, better looking, more intelligent, more popular, and is well connected among right wing political donors, who are 'keeping their powder dry' instead of placing their bets on 'the don' or Desantis.
The GQP is already imploding under McCarthy and tRump's 'loyalist' saboteurs and desperately needs a 'savior'
AMERICA, WE HAVE A PROBLEM AND IT'S ABOUT TIME TO START FREAKING OUT!

Republicants' agenda:
1: Go on social media to read what the hecklers and losers are complaining about.
2: See what Faux Spews is saying.
3: Parrot #1 & 2 and use hate speech to blame everything on Dems.
No moral compass, no ideas, no solutions, no policies, no clue about governing. The tRumptards seriously think they can rewrite history, take away women's rights, equal rights, healthcare, education, suppress voting, overthrow elections, and support attacking our nation's Capitol.
BTW, how TF could Magat Traitor Goon be VPOTUS, while threatening to break up the United States? TRumptards don't even consider that paradox do they?

Whew!! Thank you Fareed for ensuring US that we're not on the prefaces of WW III.
But, the world as we have known it is coming to an end. Woo Hoo!
It's about time our leaders took some appropriate action to avoid climate change, dependence upon foreign technology and manufacturing, and becoming more sustainably independent.
Thank you President Biden for putting US on the right track.
President Biden doesn't need to be told what you think and our nation doesn't need to hear your dissention. US oil is producing at record levels, to the point of refinery capacity. The years of shortsightedness is on corporate oil, not a 2 year old administration, who has been asking for increased production, both domestically and from OPEC.
"Biden should be making sure that other countries are on board." WTF? Biden has united and strengthened NATO and the G7, FAREED.
Stop being a smart-assed, know-it-all, soothsayer and just stick to reporting. Your li'l tail doesn't wag the nation's top dog. I assure you that he is far better informed than you, Sir.

@tylerchapman9234 leftard, eh? How TF did you ever think of that, 💩?
You Q-nuts always want to stick your nose into everyone's business or make up some BS reason for not being allowed.
If you had the least bit of respect for the law, then you would already understand that this is an ongoing attempted murder investigation, including the attempted assassination of the Speaker of the House, who is 2nd in the line of succession to the POTUS.
Therefore, in accordance with due process, the details won't become public knowledge, in order to ensure that the jury isn't biased by your social media BS.
It's not a mystery, anyway. Some normal guy got sucked into the Russian Q propaganda, started believing everything he heard within his social media echo chamber, at the time of tRump's 2016 campaign.
He became so confused about reality that he put his life into the hands of a morally bankrupt orange Jesus.
Within his brainwashed little mind, David apparently thought that he would be a hero and take Nancy's Jan 6th Committee's heat off of tRump.
David smashed the rear door glass and let himself in.
Paul Pelosi went to the bathroom and phoned the police. David found Paul and demanded to know "Where's Nancy?"
David proceeded to attack Paul with the hammer, until Paul got hold of it. The 2 were still wrestling over the hammer when the police arrived.
Distracted by the police, Paul relaxed his grip on the hammer. David jerked it away and bashed Paul a few more times, before the police stopped him.
The Police reported that a 3rd man was in the home to let them inside, when they arrived.
But, despite the perverse BS from your Q-nut echo chamber there has been no further information regarding his ID, nor any involvement in the attack.
Perhaps he is a butler, a neighbor who heard the door being smashed, but since he wasn't arrested, his presence is irrelevant to the case and he's guilty of no crime.
Paul Pelosi is the victim of a brutal, savage attack by a deranged tRumptard with a hammer. There is no escaping that fact.
These are logical deductions of the course of events, based upon official police reports, not radicalized right wing BS. What more does any reasonable person need to know?
David is a deranged loser, who believed hat he was doing tRump's will, just like the Jan 6th rioters, who are already serving time in prison over tRump's BS.
The End.

@Jesus_is_NEEDED Tramp is nothing more than the lying, deceiving anti-Christ of whom you so naively worship.
He is the opposite of everything Jesus taught in the New Testament. Tramp is a notoriously evil silver-spoon-fed, life-long, bullying, whoremongering, adulterous, morally bankrupt, 6 time financially bankrupt, 34 felony count convicted, twice impeached, treasonous betrayer of our troops' blood sacrifices who negotiated with their enemies to take back Afghanistan, without a fight, while setting up President Biden to take the political fall.
Tramp is full of anti-American vengeance, dealing and stealing with Muslims, destroying our nation's economy, and global integrity..
How can you STILL worship such a satanic tool and fool?

@Crowcryptic That's true. Maggots and worms can survive and even thrive, while being more beneficial to the Earth than most highly educated humans, if that's one's chosen purpose in life. For millennia, humans have lived happily as hunter/gatherers , .... prior to the industrial age and bartering instead of $.
I meant no offense towards anyone, under educated or otherwise. I was making general point of advice, not about you specifically. But, I'm very happy to discuss your specific situation.
Full disclosure and with some regrets, I have little more than a 55 year old high school education and have a degree in the hard knocks of life.
Since you're making this about your own personal life. Who are you?
1: A teenager preparing for the 9th grade
2: A school dropout, which never looks good on job applications, while competing against college grads. From most employers' POV, that indicates being a rebel, undisciplined, a know-it all attitude, lack of initiative, ... That doesn't even address the applicant's appearance at the interview, where one is judged the harshest.
3: Perhaps you're an adult, married with children, working 2 minimum wage jobs to support yourselves? Splitting the rent in a shared apartment? Been there, done with that. Just made my final mortgage payment on my home, 100% free of debt and finally able to live the free life @ 72. I speak from >1/2 century worth life's struggles, only to become a hermit.
Yes, we have our own brains, IF we have the discipline to seek out sufficient knowledge to achieve our goals.
Even while retired, I'm still a student of Youtube U, learning C++, MIDI, Kicad PCB design, electronics, and I'm just finishing the development of a 100% unique laser synthesizer for creating abstract imagery synchronized to music... for fun, not profit.
"No brag, just fact."
Enough about myself,.
Do you have legit goals, including solid plans for achieving them or only dreams? 'Possible' indicates 'against all odds', not highly probable. It is your own life to gamble with those odds. But, it is irresponsible to advocate that others will be happy and prosperous with only an 8th grade education.
The point of my comment is that we live, work, and socialize (or not) within a rapidly changing competitive global economy, which requires higher education in science, math, physics, software engineering, A. I., EVs, CAD/CAM, medicine, genetic engineering,..
Those are the same skills that have made Bezos, Musk, Gates, and many others billionaires (while exploiting the undereducated).
Think about it. I'd love to hear your deeper thoughts for achieving your own version of success, which constantly changes with life, conditions, and maturity. I hope you're prepared for those rollercoaster rides of ups and downs. They will happen, whether you're prepared or not.
Who cares, if you don't?

@Crowcryptic Obviously, reading, learning, and taking advice isn't your forte.
It took me 1/2 hour to type it for your benefit and you're too lazy to even take the time to help yourself.
I even took the time to check out your channel, which only shows a young, girl, possibly NA Crow (based upon your alias), living on a rez, isolated from main strean society, still in your parents' home.
If that's all you want for yourself, then so be it.
I've offered you good advice, but you've only wasted my time. /smh
Good luck surviving with that attitude.

Tell ya what, Mr. Lauro. Don't wave the US Constitution in my face, as an excuse for your mafioso client 'don' attempting several illegal coups, conspiring to overthrow the US government, and to obstruct the peaceful transfer of Executive power to the undeniable, overwhelming majority choice of We the People.
Don't try to convince me that the spoiled bully with the mental capacity of an impetuous 3 year old didn't know what he was doing.
I'm 70 years old and spotted the corrupt don as being a 2 bit con as soon as I laid eyes on him, as he staged his rent-a-crowd to announce his campaign. Don't insult our intelligence with your BS.
The entire world witnessed what happened on Jan 6th. So, stop acting like it never happened and pretending that it wasn't tRump's planned intention.
He even ordered and fought his own SS agents force them to take him to the Capitol to lead the charge of his anarchistic, lawless militias. But, his SS refused.
Instead, your don gleefully watched the mayhem on TV, in the safety of the WH, and refused to call in the National Guard to protect our nation's Capitol.
Then, just before the NG arrived and some of his cult would be hurt, ordered his cult to retreat while praising their lawless behavior.

@dendriller I'm a retired white old fart, but I salute you, my fellow American citizen for freeing yourself from the mental shackles of slavery.
But, I must ask, "Does the liberated oppressed only seek vengeance against those racist oppressors of past generations?"
This is exactly what white supremacists fear the most, as they watch their majority slip away.
This is why the bigoted radical right-wing and misguided evangelicals have been stockpiling their arsenals in preparation for another civil war. They play whack-a-bro, to intimidate and to keep folks like you subservient and oppressed.
But, I'm also stereotyping against my own race, aren't I? Please don't fall into the trap of taring an entire race with the same broad racist brush, else you become worse than the slave owners, not of today but those who have long since died in the past.
Never forget, never forgive (that's god's job, says the atheist), and never prejudge others because of the color of their skin, but by their deeds and individual reputations.
Your enemies are my enemies, as well, My Friend.
Please stay free, while never dropping your guard. Because some of our enemies only see your face as a target.
True patriots, regardless of color, need to unite against all social injustices, violence, and racism. These are everyone's Constitutional rights to live in peace and to prosper. Those ideals are what made our nation great. The don's misguided MAGATs don't even understand the meaning, much less how to MAGA.
This administration is the most diverse in US history, as a deliberate attempt to ensure that our leaders represent ALL US citizens, not just whites.
VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO!!!

The Republicants are always explaining the motivations of Democrats, who they are incapable of understanding. What's the point of Harris going to the border, while the roots of the immigration are located in the northern triangle countries, where she is working?
Why didn't the Republicant Congressmen take their shit-show to the primitive refugee camps along the Mexican side of our border, where tRump left them stranded without money, food, drinking water, sewers, nor electricity? Those poor folks are easy prey for cartels and human traffickers, but I don't hear the tRumptards shedding any tears for them. Yet, there's such an outrage for those who are being safely temporarily detained in BP shelters.
The GQP has no solutions, only ridiculous complaints about irrelevant BS.

@TheirOwnWords If racial massacres are always hushed up and swept under the rug, how would anyone know how many times it has happened since? Don't try to tell me that other racially motivated mass murders haven't happened over the past 100 years. Only last year, some white gunman shot up a black church full of worshipers.
I'm 68 years old and never hear about the Tulsa massacre, until this centennial anniversary rightly brought it to the attention of the press and it went viral.
Yes, I am appalled by the brutality and ashamed of my own race's barbaric history. You should be as well, if your a white person with an ounce of moral decency. It shouldn't have anything to do with political affiliation.
But, apparently only Dems possess that ounce of moral decency, respect, and empathy for fellow human beings, regardless of race.
You're right that some whites have had nothing to do with racial injustice and can't turn back the hands of time to take it away.
But, surely we can acknowledge our own history and find ways to make amends for those who are still suffering at the hands of our forefathers.
FFS, Man. Can't you put yourself in anyone else's shoes for a few seconds of mindful thoughts?

@fnusecurity5112 Neither political party is what it used to be 100 years ago. So, there's no point in politicizing historical racism with today's parties.
Here's what is happening now. Democrats are trying to help blacks, refugee children, unemployed and underpaid folks, plus protect voters' rights. Today's Dems support empathy and justice.
Republicans only know how to obstruct progress, ferment violent racism, take away women's rights, leave refugees stranded in border camps, eliminate social safety nets for struggling American families, and cheat the electoral progress. Today's Republicans only care about hoarding personal wealth and power. Screw everyone else.
Republicans are no longer the majority and have overplayed their hand so much that they can't win fairly, so they lie, cheat, and steal, just to force their primitive beliefs upon other fellow Americans.
Instead of supporting democracy, they only want to overthrow it with ruthless authoritarianism and force, including threats of a civil war.
REPUBLICANS ARE TRAITORS!

Republicants running on the US economy is nothing more than BS tRumptarded rhetoric, as if they could do a better job saving the US economy than President Biden has. They're only complaining over Biden not cleaning up their mess fast enough.
"EVERY TIME Republicans get behind the wheel, they drive our economy straight into the ditch".
Just look at their extremely irresponsible national debt from decades of tinkle on Reaganomics, ME wars, and tRump's $2 Trillion giveaway of tax revenues to his filthy rich billionaire donors... pushing our debt over $30T, without helping a single family nor child.
Bush was AWOl duringthe 2008 Great Recession. Obama/Biden had to bail our Wall Street, the auto industry, and families from foreclosures, because of excessive medical bills. Then, they gave US ACA.
Dems should be all over that BS, treasonous, anti-democratic, fascist platform.
Just look at their election denying tRump 'loyalist' candidates, who have NO previous records of public service. Yet they will deliberately obstruct progress towards solving the problems of We the People. Why should the most influential country in the world be controlled by political idiots and servants of a wannabe dictator?
The USA that I grew up in would NEVER allow, anarchist militias, white supremacists, and enemies from within to destroy US, like the cancer that they are to our society.
VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO!!

@johnnyraybaca1690 Why do god-fering ppl always focus upon hell and Satan, instead of living in accordance with the teachings of your Jesus?
Why don't Jesus freaks believe in protecting your god's creation, instead of praying for its destruction?
Why have 3 religions, who believe in the same god not follow his commandment of, "Thou shall not kill" and instead have spent the past 2000 years killing each other?
How could have your god created everything 5000 years ago, when 6 billion year old fossil remains have been found and carbon dated?
Do you seriously believe that there was no hanky-panky going on between Joseph and Mary that resulted in her pregnancy?
Do you seriously believe that the Christians who claimed to have seen Jesus disappear into the heavens, weren't simply grave robbers, who were caught after relocating the lifeless corpse of Jesus?
Why do you believe in the hallucinogen induced dream of Revelations, but not those that millions of others have had since?
Here's my warning to you, Pastor John. There's no eternal soul, because human beings are mortal animals, who have evolved alongside all other lifeforms. There is no afterlife, no heavenly reward, no fiery eternal hell, no angels, and no demons.
You only get one shot at life, just like every other lifeform.
The only eternal, omnipotent god is called Time, pre-alpha. post-omega, controlling everything every lifeform does, from birth to propagation, to death.
To ignore time is to inevitably fail, being prepared ahead of time results in success.
Time is relentless; you can neither stop it nor reverse it. Yet, it is oblivious to everything. Pray to time, if you please. It will answer just as often as any other god.

HELLO~O!!! Negative propaganda from your MSM pundits, Faux Spews, and Republicants are the cause of the negative opinions of US citizens, which are reflected in Biden's negative polling #s, even worse than the traitor tRump's.
NONE of your negative rhetoric is deserved. NONE of your negative rhetoric benefits our nation, ahead of these
midterms, which are so crucial for our nation's future.
STOP WHORING YOURSELVES FOR RATINGS, LIKE FAUX PUNDITS. OUR FUTURE DEPENDS UPON YOUR MESSAGING.
GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER AND CONSIDER THE BIGGER PICTURE!
PRESIDENT BIDEN IS REPRESENTING OUR NATION WITH RESPECT, DIGNITY, AND THE BEST POSSIBLE INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMACY. HE SHOULD BE RESPECTED, NOT HOUNDED AND KICKED INTO THE GROUND, BY THE LIKES OF YOU.

@techfoolcasey4348 BS Detection 101: As soon as you hear politicians demonizing the other party (1/2 of US citizens), then you know that it's BS.
As soon as you hear hyperbolic trash talk to make a point, then you know that it's BS.
As soon as you see trolls attacking the WH Press Secretary 's personal appearance and mannerisms and/or calling her a liar, then you know that those are know-nothing tRumptarded liars, spewing nothing but Faux BS.
As soon as you see attacks against President Biden's son, Hunter, then you know that it is a BS nothing burger.
As soon as you see criticisms of Biden's handling of tRump's pre-arranged departure of our troops from Afghanistan, then you know that it's BS (10 soldiers were killed by one 'lucky' suicide bomber+ 13 civilians were mistakenly killed by a drone strike, due to bad intel. 1800 Americans were shot & killed EVERY 3 weeks in their own 'safe' neighborhoods. The only Americans left behind chose to ignore warnings to leave and decided to stay.)
Whenever you hear people wanting to take away personal freedoms (abortion) and/or promoting 2nd amendment rights to rebel against our 'authoritarian' government, then you know that they are bat-shit crazy, as well as full of BS.
Last, but not least. Anyone who is spewing negativity against the chosen POTUS of the undeniable majority of We The People, then yu know that they are nothing more BS tRumptarded traitors, who are deliberately betraying the vision of our Founding Fathers and their Constitutional law.
Hope this is a helpful guide. You're welcome.😎

The way I see it, China's military has been funded by US consumers, far more than Russia's. We have been happily doing business together for over 1/2 a century.... until tRump came along and started publicly demonizing China and starting his tariff wars. That led to China taking their soybean market away from US farmers, who are now being subsidized by US taxpayers.
tRump's anti-China COVID hate speech has offended Xi. Then there was the Hong Kong anti-Xi rioting, supported by western societies. Now Xi is threatening Taiwan, which would cut off IC supplies to the US.
The more western nations poke the dragon, the more we hurt ourselves, a Tai Chi principle of self defense, deflecting forces of aggression back onto the opponent.
The problems with China, Russia, Iran, Afghanistan, and N Korea are the result of tRump's incompetence in the global arena.

@chupameelhuevo2662 My kind? I am not part of any kind. FYI, hermits are solitary individuals, who don't run with any packs nor herds of humanity. I'm a political demographic of one vote. So, don't pretend that you know nor understand anything about me whatsoever.
But, I understand your kind very well. Your kind think that politics is a celebrity contest and vote for the candidate who delivers the funniest one liners and insults.
Your kind are naive evangelicals, who still believe in fairy tales and that some angel will save them from their own stupidity. Your kind fall for some crazy concept that a narcissistic, self-serving con man, who has cheated all of his life for his own personal gain will help poor folks that he calls losers. Your kind don't care about a candidate cheating on school exams, on playing golf, on income taxes, on his pregnant wives with whores, cheats on elections with Russian collusion. cheats tRump University students out of tuition, cheats on his own charity foundation, cheats subcontractors out of business, and cheats on bank loans.
Your kind don't care about the will of the majority of voters and your kind of insurrectionist traitors stormed our nation's Capitol to deny our Constitutional transfer of power and your kind attempted a coup on behalf of a corrupt wannabe dictator.
Your kind only know how to spew BS rhetoric, instead of trusting in facts and data, revealed by multiple nonpartisan recounts and audits. Your kind refuse to trust your own electoral college and tRump's own judicial appointees.
Your kind are radical redneck white supremacist, gun toting anarchists, who truly want to destroy our government.
Your kind of tRumptard traitors make me want to puke.

"We have a recruiting page; personally, I'd like to wipe my ass with it." IOW, "I'm in charge here and I'll decide who joins our militia, based upon MY criteria." Sounds just like a dictator, doesn't he? Now, multiply his little militia by several hundred and you end up with lethal chaos.
"He was put into office, because God wanted him there. God has a plan for this nation and he put Trump in there because he's a businessman. He knows how to run a business, so he should know how to run a country." NOT! A businessman thrives upon selfish greed; a POTUS selflessly serves the needs of the nation. The self-proclaimed Chaplin sounds like a religious fanatic, who presumes to know the will of her imaginary invisible spirit, yet her philosophy only reflects her own ignorance. The most dangerous people in the world kill in the name of their god. Secondly, there is no one less godlike than Trump. He cheats, lies, steals, commits adultery, covets his neighbor's ass, and kills innocent people, just to feed his own selfish ego. FFS! With regards to paying taxes, Jesus even said, "Give unto Caesar that which is Caesar's."

<ring-ring> Hello, Vlad. It's the don, here. Hope your invasion is going well. Shame about your ships. But, I've got a hell of a deal for you.
I only need a small favor, first. They're fining me at levels the world has never seen in history. So, I just need you to cosign another loan for,,, uh $300 mil. Second thought, let's just make it an even 1/2 Billion, considering everything else that's going on, apart from my campaign expenses and everything else. Those poor Evangelical suckers are running out of money, you know.
When I'm elected in November, I'll give you Ukraine, just like I gave Afghanistan back to the Taliban. Okay?
Send my love to Xi and Kim, okay? But don't tell anyone, because it wouldn't be good for my campaign.

@kathyannk Alas, I really am a hermit, who has mutually rejected both family and a misguided society, so I live in peaceful isolation in the foothills, surrounded by nature and emotionally disengaged for over a decade.
YT is my only contact with the world, from the secure end of a WiFi connection, whenever and wherever I choose. There are numerous wonderful channels (Itchy Boots, Back 2 Basics, etc) to escape the hostilities of these tRumptarded comments. Countering them on behalf of our nation gives my life meaningful purpose.
YT is also an excellent rsource for learning, which has taught me electronics, coding in C++, PCB design, MIDI control, creating 3D imagery, etc.
In fact, I've just completed my 1st PCB for an original Laser Synthesizer, used to create abstract laser imagery, choreographed to music and recorded onto MIDI tracks, via Reaper DAW's timeline. Perhaps you are familiar with Laserium shows, which were performed in planetariums throughout the world and I did between '78-88.
Now that the equipment is as inexpensive as a decent home sound system, I've returned to the art form I once loved within the comfort of my living room, with a glass of wine and vaporizer loaded with 80% THC. 🤗
If curious, Christopher Short has many YT videos of what I'm talking about. I'll be posting my own by the new year. There are only a few of us 'old school' laserists still living to practice this artform. Most of today's commercial laser shows consists of 'beam heads' doing stage concerts. 🙄
Now, I can escape all known reality, entirely and explore an unforeseen universe of abstract harmonious movement. Imagine having never heard music before, then being handed a modern synthesizer to play with at your heart's content. 😜
Everyday of life is a holiday for me. No worries.
I've enjoyed our chat, Kathy.
For that, I am very grateful. These connections on YT are very rare and precious to me. You've filled a void in the life of TheOleHermit.
Namaste', Dear Kind Soul. 🙏🙏🙏

Democrats are such sycophants, eating their own kind. DNC corruption continues to help Republicans to get elected, due to shear voter disillusionment with the process. "What's the point of voting, when our votes don't count?" They simply never learn from their own mistakes.
Meanwhile, Trump is an out of control mob boss, who has thumbed his nose at our Constitution and Congressional oversight. He literally believes that he is above the law and has demonstrated an absolute stranglehold over the Republican party.
Trump is an irresponsible bully, who gives everyone gangsta nicknames and brutally punishes anyone who opposes him. He rules out of fear and everyone under his thumb hates him. All along and at this very minute, Trump's self-appointed Cabinet (mob) of henchmen are plotting a coup upon our nation.
Trump has already suggested the elimination of term limits (blatantly illustrated in his recent tweet, with him campaigning into 2048) and has his heirs poised to inherit his crown and kingdom, aka USA. If re-elected, Trump will become our 1st dictator or, as he fantasizes, the biggliest King of the World in history.
Every day, the MSM provide Trump with 24/7 free publicity by broadcasting his propaganda. Therefore only a media mogul, like Mike Bloomberg, is capable of defeating Trump with millions of dollars’ worth of counter messaging ads.
IMO, Mike Bloomberg is our only hope of saving our democratic republic against Trump's tyranny. Mike Bloomberg is a true patriot, literally spending a fortune out of his own pocket to save our nation from a lying, cheating, corrupt traitor.
BTW, Bloomberg's anti-Trump ads will run up until the November election, even if he is not the Dems' nominee. IOW, they benefit all Dem candidates. How generous is that? They should be thanking Mike, instead of demonizing him with accusations of him trying to buy the election. He's only buying ads, just as they are.
Furthermore, Bloomberg only entered the race because none of the field has a chance in hell of defeating Trump (including Sanders). Even after giving others a 3 month head start and 4 state handicap, Bloomberg's poll numbers are skyrocketing. Please be a true patriot and support our nation's only hope for survival.🙏

@tiberiusG Yes, I checked out his videos. He's obviously and immigrant, with English not being his native language.
One of his videos is an overhead shot of an Asian election worker marking ballots, across the table from another Asian man, who probably doesn't read English.
Then, he points out that it is being supervised by an Asian looking security guard or policeman.
What country was that happening in? How was it possible for him to be standing on a balcony, recording it all, without raising suspicions?
Many immigrants import their own political problems into our country. I've experienced it personally, within my X-wife's local Thai community...
a restaurant owner, serving customers, while unvaccinated, infected with COVID, and complaining that his doctor wouldn't prescribe hydroxychloroquine.
That was the last time I ate at there and informed him that he was no longer my friend.

Mickey Finn FYI, Trumptard troll: Trump's incompetence has already needlessly killed at least 30,000 Americans.
Thousands more of Trump rally attendees, their family members, and friends will soon be dead, because of his refusal to conform to CDC guidelines.
Trump forcing children into classrooms is no different to Nazis sending jews into gas chambers to their death. Sure, many may survive, but that's no consolation to the parents of the thousands of children who will undoubtedly die.
TRUMP IS A MURDERER.
You are obviously referring to abortion laws, which is a political red herring. As you well know, the apolitical US Supreme ruled on Roe v Wade decades ago, so you can't blame abortions on Democrats. Republican women get them too.
Besides that, our Constitution protects our nation from laws in favor or against religion. Therefore it is unconstitutional for you to impose your religious beliefs upon others.

@margaretnicol3423 I take your point and have the same concerns that the Green New Deal is a stretch too far left for many voters and will only hurt the party, if Biden campaigns on that agenda. Win first, legislate afterwards (if the Dems can take the Senate), IMHO. AOC & Co need far more political experience, before becoming party representatives.
Full disclosure: IMO, there's nothing more important than reversing global warming, with all hands on deck, just as the Green New Deal aspires towards. But, as you eluded, mainstream voters have other priorities and could easily be frightened away by Trump's apocalyptic rhetoric. I'm sure that Biden understands this. Strategic timing is essential for success.
Yes, left and right are the opposing forces of Yin/Yang extremes, swinging from Bush to Obama back to Trump and now it's Biden's turn. But, calmness and peace rest in between the extremes, at the center. 😎

@jimmalachowsky4052 TLDR. The House DID impeach Trump while he was still POTUS. McConnell delayed the Senate TRIAL until after the inauguration on Jan 20th. The whole point of the trial was to make him ineligible to ever run for office again. After every Republican Senator let him off the hook, McConnell stated that Trump could and should be held accountable in criminal court for inciting the insurrection on Jan 6.
Mark my words, Trump will be in prison by 2024. The Democrats have no fear of Trump winning. It's the Republicans that are shitting themselves, afraid that Trump will fund primary opponents against any Republican that doesn't toe the Trump line.
Trump is a mob boss that bullies his way through everything with threats of law suits, political smears, and/or extortion. The first thing he did (apart from surrounding himself with 'family', the only ppl he trusts) after stepping into the Oval office was to summon every Republican Congressman to pledge loyalty to him above everything else, including our nation. After making an 'offer they couldn't refuse', they sealed the 'deal' with the infamous embrace.
His first move while campaigning was to discredit the free press. "Don't believe anything others say, but you can always trust me." He told his supporters at every rally. That's the first step towards dictatorship.
Then there were all of the demeaning gangsta nicknames, Crooked Hillary, Lying Ted Cruz, Little Marco, Crazy Bernie, Pocahonas, Sleepy Joe Biden. Trump behaves exactly like a mafioso godfather.
NY has hired a lawyer who specializes in racketeering to take down Trump's entire mob. Guliani is in deep trouble. Cohen is squealing like a pig and advising Trump's accountant to cooperate with the investigations to save his own ass.
At CPAC, Trump even wondered who the 2024 nominee would be. Before the election, he asked his supporters, "What will happen if I don't win? Will I have to move to another country?" Jared has already dissappeared.
Are you Friking deaf, dumb, and blind?

@jimmalachowsky4052 You're obviously a Trumptard troll. I've heard that BS too many times and have learned that you are incapable of being either reasonable nor civil. It's all about 'whataboutisms' and personal attacks about everyone else being too stupid to understand your massive intelligence.
Yes, Pelosi pushed the impeachment through in order to finish before Jan 20, knowing that no Republicans would vote for it. The impeachment is not a trial and doesn't require testimonies.
Obviously, you have forgotten the 1st impeachment trial that McConnell & Co pushed through, w/o witnesses. Every single one stood in front of Americans and lied their asses off to defend their godfather. They are all cowards.
Yes, Pelosi delayed transferring the articles so that Biden could get his cabinet together in the middle of a pandemic and financial meltdown that Trump left him with.
The first action on day one was to vote on the constitutionality of holding a trial to convict Trump. That vote passed, with some Republican support. Then, the defense and Republicans used that same issue as an excuse to not convict. Vote yes on day one, then no on day 5. SMH!
During the Senate trial, the House attorneys presented a compelling case against Trump. Trump's defense was pathetic. In fact, his first set of lawyers quit rather than lose their licenses by supporting his 'big lie' as a legal defense.
The rest of your comment is nothing more than a personal rant, which I'm not going to lower myself to your level by responding. Furthermore, it is gullible Trumptards just like you who have TDS, not ppl who can see through his BS.
Now, I done with you. Go away troll and leave me alone. In fact, I'm blocking your notifications.

@ehla0144 Well stated! Those are precisely the same reasons I'm voting for the Harris/Walz ticket.
Given a filibuster-proof Congressional majority, they will pivot our nation in the right direction towards a more perfect union of social equality, economic stability, manufacturing independence, sustainable energy, and bury tRump's MAGA con into the past annals of history.
I foresee prosperity, better educated more globally competitive younger generation, improved racial equality, and tRump's morally corrupt mob in prison, where Garland should have put them 2 years ago.
Couldn't be more optimistic for our nation's future. Thank you for paying attention and please keep posting your messages to voters all over YT. to counter Putin's trolls and dis-information from tRump's misguided cult. Words, data, and science matters. The balance between yin vs yang must be maintained.
WE'RE NOT GOING BACK!!

@criticalthought12 First of all, you're obviously referring to New York City, instead of the state.
The mafia run NYC unions are notorious. tRump used them to construct his properties, which is how he became their billionaire don.
On the other hand, to your BS nothing burger point, NYC's mayor just stated today that his city had the least crime rate while being the largest city in the USA.
So, they're not going to tolerate any tRumptarded violent mobs, like the one on 1/6/21 that the entire world witnessed, under the corrupt traitor tRump's protection.
Why do you tRumptards always waste people's time with stupid one-liners, followed by laughing at your own foolishness?
Never a debate about polices, but only deplorable insults, exposing your ignorance.
Go away, tRumptarded troll. Stop wasting my time.

Not this caring administration, which has stopped the COVID pandemic with nationwide FREE vaccinations, EXTENDED unempployment benefits, eviction moratoriums, stimulus checks, SNAP for children out of school, 40% less child poverty, 14 million more jobs created, $15 federal minimum wages (with private employers following suite), lowering inflation, student loans forgiven, ...
Reaganomics is all about tax breaks for the filthy rich, while social services are reduced and our national debt skyrocketing, no thanks to Bush's wars of lies about non-existent WMDs and scapegoating the Taliban over his failure to get Bin Laden.
WTF is your problem? Uniting and strengthening NATO to defend Ukrainians? FYI, America's greatness was created by defending Europe from Hitler's regime.
If you don't understand these fundamentals, then you are not qualified to criticize this great leadership.

Who is your alternative? Vivek, who knows 0 about how our government functions?
Surely NOT the fascist Mafioso godfather, who tried to overthrow the undeniable majority of voters' choice and wants eliminate term limits, the Constitution, and become our dictator. Nikki Haley is a warmonger.
Personally, I don't believe in riding a great old workhose into the ground, neither and would prefer to see a Raskin/AOC ticket and ranked choice voting (1st).
But dreaming isn't a choice. Nor is 'different'' a viable one, as we're witnessing with the know-nothing Q-nut anarchists sabotaging the people's House and destroying the GOP.
Get real and woke up. President Biden has been doing an incredible job of leading our nation through the most difficult challenging time in recent history. That's only possible thanks to his caring age, decades of public service, and mindfulness.
Don't kick the ole man, just because his polling #s are down. People will appreciate him much more, once the union wages of 35,000 infrastructure projects start flowing into their local economies, manufacturing returns home, and post-pandemic inflation has returned to normal. @alwayswatchingfromabove

AOC's comments regarding climate change are undeniable. But, unfortunately, she is being overly naive to believe that she can convince voters, politicians, all levels of government, and corporations to support her Green Deal between now and the election. Timing is everything. AOC and other Dems are leaning so far left that they will only be rejected by the majority of voters, guaranteeing their own losses next November. That would be self defeating and result in an inevitable environmental catastrophe.
Sure, candidates should run on addressing climate change, but not frighten voters away.
Step #1 Win the elections, including the majority of both Congressional bodies.
Step #2 Then, wholeheartedly work with Congress to legislate whatever policies are possible.
Some of the Dem candidates need serious reality checks, instead of making their party un-electable, with a socialist label.
🤙Aloha!🤙

@edelgyn2699 At this very moment, I'm proudly watching President Biden's address to NATO.
They gave him a standing ovation, when he stepped up to the podium, as well as applauding his points during. Then, he awarded NATO's leader with the Medal of Freedom.
THiS is how a respected POTUS behaves, NOT by inviting ruthless dictators to his country club.
Stop ass-u-ming, based upon MSM pundits and start paying attention to the reality of President Biden's excellent global leadership.
Your guy is a criminal, heading to prison, without even a VP.
Your guy instigated the unConstitutional violent overthrow of the undeniable majority choice of We the People.
How can you call yourself a respectable US citizen, while supporting tRump's treason? He has been, is, and wil always disgrace the honor of our nation in front of the world, just to feed his own narcissistic ego.
President Biden has/is/ and will always serve the needs ALL US citizens.

Ben, please use the words "quote" & "unquote" like most people do when reading tRump's rambling gibberish in order to differentiate it from your own comments for the benefit of your viewers, instead of running them together into one long sentence, because we can't tell the difference between the don's words and your own and I find it to be very confusing to understand which is which, who is whom, nor who said WTF what, especially since your voice tone doesn't change, if you understand and see what I mean, because tRump's a traitor and you are a lawyer, which is very different, if ya know what I mean and I'm sure that you do, because Mamma Meicelas didn't raise no fool, did she, no she most certainly did not from what I've witnessed and that includes your brothers, Jordie and Popak, who are great siblings of yours.....
Thank you.

REALITY CHECK:
#1: It has been exposed that Tuckins REALLY despises tRump & Co., so there's no F'ing way that TC would play 2nd fiddle to tRump.
#2: TC is NOT a cog in tRump's propaganda machine, he IS tRump's primary propaganda machine.
#3: TC's fan base is tRump's cult and TC knows how to play to that audience. He's the only person who is intelligent enough to out-tRump trump.
#4: tRump's polling numbers indicate that the vast majority of Americans are sick and tired of his BS. NO WAY can he win in 2024.
#5: TC doesn't need to tolerate tRump's BS nor his campaign money. In fact, tRump's legal woes have already rendered him to be unelectable.
#6: MTG & Co are destroying the GQP.
#7: TC's most logical move would be to immediately announce his own Presidential campaign for 2024, before the opportunity passes him by and before becoming committed to a career change.
He already has the right wing base eating out of his hand, the grift of the gab, the financial fortitude, and the ability to take down ANY opponents, including President Biden.
IOW, TC could literally save the GQP from itself.
AMERICA, WE HAVE A PROBLEM!

@barrylanders8243 That's because racism is a daily problem in the USA. Stop the racism and the comments will stop, guaranteed. Who are 'leftists'? Me? You don't know me and I don't wear any divisive political labels. Dems? Why are only Dems concerned about racism and not Republicans? Don't 'righties' care about equal rights?
BLM wouldn't even exist if not for blatant racism in police departments, the judicial system, and white supremacist groups. In fact, white supremacy wouldn't even exist, either. It's a Yin vs Yang kinda thing, Bubba. Opposing forces build strength against each other, until something has to give.
Police killings caused the BLM peaceful protests. Withe nationalist militias attacked the peaceful BLM protests and caused them to escalate into violence, rioting, and killing.
You're obviously a racist simply because of the people you choose to oppose and blame. If people like you didn't exist, BLM would have no reason to exist.
Dems have nothing to do with any of it, except in support of BLM's Constitutional right to protest against the government gunning them down in the streets, while on national TV. You condone George Floyd, Albury, and the numerous other unarmed blacks being murdered in cold blood?
I may be a white old fart but want nothing to do with your kind. You're a disgrace to my race.

@gouwawang Just received my EDGE-V w/M.2 extender board and love it! (unfortunately, the two won't fit inside the case) I especially like the reinforced ribbon cable on the M.2 extender and PWM header for the heatsink/fan. On another competing RK3399 SBC, I had to purchase a 12 VDC Noctua fan & PWM control board, power switch, barrel power connector, and build a DIY case (~$100 extra). After all of that, the DST had issues, so it only sits on the shelf collecting dust. So, purchasing another RK3399 SBC is a leap of faith, which I hope I won't regret.
Pretty soon, I'll get bored with admiring its looks and muster enough courage to actually plug it in. IMHO, this is the best designed SBC on the market. It has great connectivity, NVMe, motion & gyroscopic detection, stereoscopic camera connections, 2 USB-C (plus full HDMI, instead of dual micro HDMI). What more could a maker ask for in a SBC?
Well done, Gouwa! You really nailed the specs on the EDGE-V.
Thanks 😎

Adults who still believe in superstitious mythologies, while denying archeological remains, are gullible enough to be conned by a notorious silver spoon-fed, elite, spoiled,life-long, lying , cheating, 2-bit mafioso orange Jesus and that such a narcissistic POS would serve their needs.
On one hand, I'm VERY pleased to hear of at least one pastor calling out tRump's mob as being unChristian, I am also firmly against preaching politics from a tax-exempt pulpit.
"...no laws with rspect to religion..." says our Constitution.
People of faith over common sense believe that they have the authority to defy our laws to the point of committing violence... in THEIR god's name.

@ExplainingComputers Thank you, Chris. Please don't waste your time on The Hermit's frivolity. You are a very busy man and my question was only rhetorical.
They say pico, I say PI-CO,
pico, PI-CO! me-o, my-o!
Oh, l et's call the whole thing off.
lol!
Might I add my favorite MCU, the Teensy T4 into the competition (assuming they're still available, of course.)? Mine is pushing out 17 * 256 step sine.square/triangle wave forms, @ 0Hz-2kHz, without even breaking a sweat... all controllable in real time via usbMIDI. That's mind boggling, IMHO.'

~1 month before the 2020 election tRump asked his cult at a rally, "What would happen of Sleepy Joe wins the election? Will I need to leave the country?"
tRump knew that he was guilty of criminal behavior. He didn't want to be POTUS. The 'don' only wanted to cling onto Executive immunity from being incarcerated.
But, he can't keep his mouth shut and ALWAYS shows his hand. So, here we are, with tRump flying to Scotland "to inspect his property"? BS. Scotland is only a plane's hop to asylum in Moscow, with his ole pal, Putin for protection.
I guarantee that tRump won't stay long in Scotland. It's cold, rainy, the Scots hate him, and they'll be protesting around his golf course until they're rid of him.
Perhaps he's only going there to sell the property. Perhaps he thinks that he can avoid extradition in another country, like he tried to escape NYC justice by moving to Florida.
I just hope that Jack Smith is aware of tRump's public notification of his planned departure, stops the attempted fleeing from justice, confiscates the family's passports, and grounds tRump's plane from taking off.

@joethomas9574 First of all, I don't speak on anyone else's behalf, nor as a member of any political party.
IMO, AOC is young, energetic, idealistic, outspoken, did I mention young?
I think she is absolutely correct about the need to act urgently and aggressively to mitigate climate change, for all the right reasons. That requires significant changes in human behavior to minimize dependencies upon fossil fuels, including transportation and plastics.
That scares the wits out of conservatives, who are primarily climate deniers, oil workers, and lobbyists. So, there's monumental opposition for all the wrong reasons.
I think mankind has done more than enough mindless destruction of natural resources, primarily stolen resources, solely for greed. Enough is enough. Our house is already on fire and many 'patriots' won't even piss on it.
"AMERICA is long gone!!!" Only because of people who believe in such pathetic BS! Get an education in environmental science. Be more mindful about wasting gas on power toys and travel. If everyone does 1 thing to help the environment, then at least the mind is considering the possibilities to live more responsibly.

@ricn5494 WTF are you talking about, now? I'm scared of nothing, never lock my doors and don't even own a gun. My nearest neighbor is 100 yards away, yet we rarely see each other.
I own a 4 bedroom 2 bath home on 5 acres of land, in the foothills, near None-of-Your-Damn-Business, USA.
I drink Kahlua with my morning coffee, Tequila with my OJ, and wine with my evening meals.
I'm happily retired, and standing upon the solid grounds of scientific facts. I'm a maker of IoT devices, an inventor of sustainable products, a laser systems engineer and laserist just for fun.
What people like me? Hermits aren't herd animals,nor do we run with any packs, mobs, nor cliques You don't know anything about me, nor of my lifestyle.
I do and say whatever TF I like, whenever I like.
Don't feel sorry for me, you arrogant jerk. I have been places and experienced things you could never dream of. Now, I answer to no one nor subject myself to society's
expectations and judgments.
Now, WTF is your problem?

@ricn5494 No. I still don't get your point.
First of all, I never developed any vaccine. You're simply parroting my own words about tRump never putting on a lab coat, while taking credit for the vaccines being developed. WTF?
There you go again, talking about MY people. WTF are you talking about? I don't have any people and am an Independent thinker, not a Dem. But, I would never EVER vote for any of the current GQP nut jobs.
Yes, now I tell people to get vaccinated, because that's the only way out of this pandemic and the only way to return to normal life. What's your problem with that?
Now, you're attacking Dems with right wing BS rhetoric. The only 'fallout' is being caused by tRumptards and evangelical anti-vaxxers, because they are the most vulnerable and contagious. If they would stop being so scared and stubborn, no one would still be dying. They are the ones overwhelming hospitals. They are the ones dying. They are the ones testifying that they regret not getting vaccinated.
Dems are being cautious, following the CDC guidelines, wearing masks. getting vaccinated, and not getting seriously ill.
How TF can you make such an ignorant partisan accusation against the half of US society who are doing everything right, while YOUR people are acting like idiots?
Go away, tRumptard. I don't talk to traitors.

A public option would provide competition to drive down the costs of private health insurance, or bankrupt the gougers. Furthermore, it would give our government a seat at the table to negotiate lower drug prices. This is the path towards total public healthcare.
Why does everyone expect the moon tomorrow? Why does everything depend upon narrow-minded, single issues?
The conclusions of this narrative are biased and illogical. No. Healthcare coverage does not have to be an all or none scenario. People should maintain their right to purchase supplemental coverage and customized policies, beyond whatever is provided in the 'average' government issued coverage. Normally, that would be called free market competition, which is good...right? Otherwise, who would keep the government honest? Why do military hammers cost $500 (whatever) apiece?
This guy is so Berned that he can't see the bigger picture.
What am I doing, supporting Tulsi instead of Bernie? I'm not selfishly riding a faithful workhorse into the ground, for a start. Ever heard of the expression, "There's no point in flogging a dead horse." ? Workhorses like Bernie simply don't know when to quit.
Yes, Bernie is a great guy, who has served our nation honorably for several decades, but the poor man has already one heart attack. What more do you people want from this man? Who will step into his shoes, if/when (god forbid) he's gone?
Who resigned from the VC position of the DNC to endorse Bernie in 2016? Whose policies are most closely aligned with Bernie's? Who has the experience to pull our country out of political corruption and bridge our partisan divisions, with nonpartisan leadership? Ladies and gents, I give you Tulsi Gabbard.
"Well then, why is Tulsi running against Bernie, instead of with him?" I hear you ask. I can only presume that Tulsi doesn't want to burden Bernie's campaign with all of these DNC/MSM smears.🤯 Yeah, what kind of person would be that honorable in the service for her nation?
So, let's not be so eager to throw sh!t on a pure heart, folks.
Sanders/Gabbard 2020!

... to support the COVID unemployed during the pandemic shutdowns, while creating the strongest post-pandemic economy in the world.
25% added during tRump's 4 years in office, $2Trillion worth of tax loopholes were handed out to his billionaire Wall Street cronies.
$33 Trillion of national debt caused by failed Reaganomics that only helped the filthy rich, while blowing $5Trillion in the Middle East wars, based upon lies of WMDs and to save face by scapegoating the Taliban over letting Bin Laden escape into Pakistan.
Then, Bush/Cheney simply gave up the chase and went into another failed 'nation building' mode.
While AWOL, the Great Recession of 2007 happened. So, Obama/Biden were forced to bail out corrupt Wall Street hedge fund managers to rescue the global economy, rescue the auto industry that Romney said should fail.
Families were losing their homes to skyrocketing hospital expenses, so Obama/Biden provided ACA, which Republicans pledged to defund, but failed.
What was your point, again?

! MSM pundits' constantly focused upon tRump and pretending to be POTUS.
! Both-sides-sim, granting MAGA equal voice, respect, and free air time.
! PC left VS MAGA conspiracies, fearmongering, and hateful demonizing fellow US Dems.
! tRump constantly tearing down our nation, as if he is "our only saviour".
! Gullible radicalized Evangelical hypocrites preaching politics to their flocks of sheeple.
! 8 years of "The border is wide open!" The world accepts the open invitation.
! "Tsk, tsk Hunter, Hunter, Hunter"
! A year's worth of constant daily loops of one moment when panic-crazed Afghans breeched the wall and tried to ride a cargo plane away from Taliban rule (negotiated by tRump)
! "Bifen's too old!"
These are what OUR OWN side of the political aisle have been doing, saying, and refusing to counter.

@Paul-se4wc #1: It is disrespectful to force YOUR superstitious beliefs onto the children of everyone else who rejects YOUR personal beliefs.
#2: It defies the personal rights of freedom of religion, ANY religion, including atheism.
#3: The Constitution states "Congress shall make NO laws with respect to religion." That means that it is unConstitutional to mandate injecting religion into ANYTHING that is taxpayer funded, including public schools. Schools teach fundamental communication skills, reading,, writing, computing, provable science, anatomy, hygiene, reproduction, recorded world history, math, civics, STEM, and sociology. Those provide skills for becoming competitive in global job markets.
PUBLIC SCHOOLS DO NOT TEACH TRANS IDEOLOGY. TRANS IS NOT AN IDEOLOGY. IT IS APERSONAL IDENTITY. LGBTQ SUBJECTS ARE ELECTIVE COLLEGE LEVEL SUBJECTS FOR PROFESSIONAL COUNSELING CAREERS.
#3: The bible is NOT historical fact. It was written by men, after thousands of years worth of folklore, verbally passed down through thousands of generations.
In fact, archeological scientific remains prove that Genesis is total BS. The Earth was NOT created in 6 days, Eve wasn't created from one of Adam's ribs (God ran out of parts?).
#4: You already have your own failing tax-exempt houses for worship. Where politics are being preached illegally. Evangelical sheeple of blind faith says that a notorious life-long, lying, cheating, whoremongering, adulterer is "the divine chosen one, sent down by god to save our nation", despite your own bible perfectly describing him as the anti-Christ, who is only here to deceive you.
What's wrong with parental rights of not wanting their children to be indoctrinated (aka groomed) by false religions?
This is going to blow up in your faces. The more authoritarian you are, the more respectable will resist.
Women's rejection of Dobbs has already cost you last midterm's red wave.
Project 2025 will cost you the House, Senate, and Executive branch this election. Dems will gain a supermajority to strike down everything MAGA has/is/will tear down.
YOU WILL NOT DUMB DOWN THE EDUCATION OF AMERICA'S YOUTH.

All hail Fani Willis for saving our nation's election integrity from within her limited jurisdiction of Fulton County, Georgia (of all places)!
But, what about those other fake electors in the other red swing states?
Who is holding those fake electors accountable for seditious conspiracy to overthrow our 2020 election and their obstruction of Congress on 1/6/21?
Why aren't the Congressional seditious conspirators of the "Green Bay Sweep" being indicted, instead of being promoted to key seats in powerful committees, like Jordan's BS Judiciary Committee, whose only commitment is defending a corrupt mafioso godfather, aka 'the don'.
Was that only a dress rehearsal? Have they since been allowed to replace the official REAL electors in those swing states?
Could this be the reason that the Republicans are being so blatantly bold with doubling down on their radical extremist right wing authoritarian theocratic ideologies?
The Q-nuts are behaving as if there are no consequences and can't lose in 2024.
Where is the DoJ in those other red swing states? It's willful ignorance already enabled tRump's 'loyalist' Q-nuts to infiltrate and control the House during the midterms.
Yet, MT is defending AG Garland's cowardice in allowing the mafioso mob boss to STILL rebel rouse his cult, as if there is insufficient evidence?!
WTF, Popok!!! Never mind that, because of Garland's 'caution', the criminal Q-nuts' have succeeded in taking control of the People's House... TWO F'ING YEARS AFTER JAN 6?
It's more important dot every 'i' and cross every 't' against traitor tRump, when there's already overwhelming evidence of multiple attempted coups; seditious conspiracy; stealing, concealing, photocopying, uploading, (selling?) classified docs; and espionage on his head?
HELL NO! The don must be publicly convicted and imprisoned, before his reign and cult will end.
TRUMP'S A TRAITOR!!
GARLAND IS A COWARD!!
LET'S GO JACK!!
LOCK THEM UP!!

@davidwestwater1914 No, Friend. There are many types of servers (email, SQL database, media, VNC, etc). Nearly every business has one and many tech-savvy individuals own servers in their homes. I have a few, myself (even on a $50 Raspberry Pi SBC). The Clinton Foundation has its own server, which is capable of processing email.
Apparently, Hillary didn't know how to configure her phone's email client to send and receive on two different servers, so she simply used her Clinton Foundation account for both communications. Bad Hillary! But apparently it wasn't illegal because she was never charged with a crime. Perhaps because there was no malicious intent.Of course, the government maintains classified communication (email) records on government owned servers for security and oversight. Apparently, the Clinton Foundation's email server is maintained by an astute IT Administrator, because, unlike the DNC's email server, it wasn't hacked by the Russians. In other words, no harm, no foul.
Yes, Hillary deleted her personal gossip email, prior to handing the official government ones over. BFD.
Trump is using the White House classified server to conceal his illegal activities from Congressional oversight, such as withholding missiles from an ally (who is in the midst of being invaded by Russia), just in order to shake down the Ukrainian president, just to gain an advantage over a campaign rival.
Surely, you can see that is mob-style extortion, which is highly illegal.
Trump will soon be joining his henchmen in prison.

Democracy = one person, one whole vote
Republic = our electors will count the votes, then grant blacks 3/5 a vote, exclude women, and then Gerrymander districts in order to cheat.
IMO, Dems need to concede that the USA has NEVER been a democracy, just to stop the knee-jerk reaction among Republicans, who don't understand the difference between Democrats and democracy. They are correct that we don't have a democracy and they're even stealing our republic, now worth less than bananas.
#1: VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO, just to save what still remains. Debate the details after this chaos is behind US, or there will be no debating under tRump.. Given a filibuster proof Congressional majority and Biden as POTUS, they will have the power to fix our political woes.
#3: Nationwide ranked choice voting to end 3rd party election spoilers.
#4: Rebalance SCOTUS to make it NON-partisan, NON-politically motivated.
#5: TERM LIMITS and no under the table bribery for ALL Justices!!
#6: Repeal Dobbs & codify Roe.
#7: Repeal Citizens United to get corporate dark $ out of our elections. Equal campaign financing (to see which candidates can handle $ best).
#8: Abolish the Electoral College over cheating and Jan 6. If they can't play fairly, then take away their balls.
#9: Abolish district Gerrymandering. Equally divided populations, with equal voting power, and equal representation, regardless of land size.
#9: Mandatory civics testing and diploma screening for all political candidates!
THIS IS HOW TO MAGA, NOT BY BACK HANDED CHEATING!

IMHO, Time is god; immortal, eternal, omnipotent, undeniable. Time rules over every microsecond of every life that has ever/will ever live. Time decides when we are born, laugh, cry, eat, defecate, procreate, and die.
One's successes and failures depend upon observing the passage of time and being prepared to act at the appropriate time.
Pray to Time if you wish. You will receive exactly the same answers as those from any of your other gods.
It's about time. Time is up. Time to go. Get it? 😎

@samj7681 I don't believe in prophets, biblical or otherwise. The future is not yet written, but scientific data can form trend lines, projecting into the near future, making events like climate change inevitable, unless mankind becomes more mindful of his affects upon nature. Your invisible god has nothing to do with it.
IMO, time is the only omnipotent god, passively effecting every life form, from birth to death and every moment in between. It determines our goals, when to marry, when to procreate, and when to pass every accomplishment on to the next generation. Ignoring the 'passage of time' will only result in failure. It's even mentioned in your bible. "There's a time to laugh, a time to cry, a time to reap and a time to sow...."
The only universal law is the simultaneous forces of opposition and attraction, waxing and waning between Yin and Yang. Those opposites exist in everything from the smallest atomic particles to the gravitational forces of the universe's heavenly bodies. Positive vs negative, up vs down, left vs right, forward vs backward, good vs bad, right vs wrong, yes vs no, black vs white, and so on.
"Everyone is somewhere." But, the most important thing is to be in the right place at the right time. Plan for the future, but live in the present. :-)

@stassimarlowe9108 "He's making a list, checking it twice. Gonna find out whose naughty or nice. Santa Claus is coming to town.
He knows when you are sleeping, he knows when you're awake, he knows when you've been bad or good. So, you'd better be good for goodness sake."
You are very focused upon "the enemy". Without your god, my enemies simply cease to exist, especially those here on planet Earth.
"God spoke to the prophets in the bible who wrote those stories."
How do you know that Satan wasn't speaking to those self professed prophets? How do you know that they didn't write those stories in order to control and subjugate weaker minded sheeple?
"You do understand that angel's used to walk this earth?" Did those angels have wings or not? Do birds fly in the air or walk on the ground?
"After all, we are made in the image of God." Isn't that just a little too convenient for mankind? What color is your god?
"Jesus did die on the cross of calvary for all world's sins." Thousands of Christians and Jews died upon Roman crosses. But, no one still worships them 2 thousand years later. Oh, that's right, none of their bodies were removed by grave robbers nor did they ascend into heaven, according to the story. That's the sole basis of your faith. Fairy tales, fortune tellers, and ego.
I'm so much more happy not living my life second guessing the will of an invisible entity, always watching my every move, and waiting to be judged. Watching for imaginary cryptic signs in clouds.
You can live in fear of your demon enemies and wait for some nonexistent heavenly reward in your afterlife beyond the grave, if you wish. But, I'm going to continue to appreciate every moment of life, here and now. Because that's all I'll ever have, just like every other life form on Earth. They're not worried about your demons any more than I.

@tzerbs FYI, as my alias should have made obvious, I'm not a part of any group of 'guys'. I'm one person speaking as one independent person, simply expressing my personal POV regarding what I'm witnessing every single day.
IMHO, only 2 DINOs and the Congressional GQP cowards are blowing our nation's best chance of salvaging our crippled democracy, just because of tRumpism. According to C of SD professor, our democracy has already devolved into an anocracy over the past 5 years. FYI, that's 50% anarchy vs 50% democracy.
Forget about Republicans vs Democrats. Liz Cheney and Adam Kingzinger are the only REAL Republicans left. The rest are traitors, who betrayed their oath of office in exchange for their don's "offer they couldn't refuse' and sealed 'the deal' with their infamous 'embrace' during the don's 1st week in the Oval office.
Now that they're in his mob, there's no leaving, without paying the consequences of the godfather's revenge.
Are you really so naïve that you can't recognize the mob when you see it? Or are you just being willfully ignorant and choose to turn a blind eye to such blatant corruption?
Where is your GOP of law and order? DEAD!

@tzerbs "Crooked Hillary, Crazy Bernie, Lying Ted, Pocahontas, Sleepy Joe, Little Marco, ..." all gangsta nicknames, straight out of the old movies; signaling that he's part of the NYC mob.
"The Donald" Rosie O'Donnell's nickname for 'the don'.
"You knew darn well I was a snake before you took me in..." FYI, that joke was on his loyal fans, who always laughed, right on queue like trained animals.
Accountant Wiesenberger in prison for running duplicate accounts ledgers. Fixer Cohen turning state's evidence. Stone did jail time for his don. Bannon, Meadows, Jordan, and others in contempt of Congress, refusing to testify.
RICO investigations against the tRump org and family.
The don only trusts his own spawn of heirs, the only ones who are always at his side. Everyone else gets used, abused, then discarded like his toilet paper.
Giuliani, Powell, Cyber Ninjas and 'stop the steal' attorneys; unpaid, disbarred, and being fined $1.2 Billion in defamation compensation to Dominion.
Every Congressman who pledged loyalty to the don are afraid of his vengeance, by funding his own loyalists to primary them, unless they hold the line regarding his Big Lie.
Intimidation of Georgia Sec of State to "find 11,780 votes"
This is the kind of POS you honestly believe is qualified to represent our nation after reneging on JCPOA, PCA, and being laughed at by NATO leaders?
You have absolutely no moral core to even consider such a thing. You're not any US citizen that I want anything to do with. You're a disgraceful tRumtarded traitor, just like the rest of his TDS infected cult.

The indigenous tribes have thrived for thousands of years by happily living in harmony with nature. Meanwhile, within only a few centuries, our 'civilized' cultures have destroyed so much natural habitat that we are now on the brink of global destruction. Yet, in our arrogance, we believe that we are the advanced culture, while being totally dependent upon money for processed foods and tech devices.
Indigenous peoples don't need our money, weapons, technology, nor lifestyles. They only need the habitat that nature has provided. They understand and respect it. Their lifestyles should be emulated, not obliterated.
These are the successful cultures. Ours represents nothing more than a misguided, failed path to destruction, guided solely by greed. Shame on us!

Yet another great review, Todd! Like you, I have a well. But I've never had it's water tested and don't drink it because of local old silver mines. So, I've been drinking bottled water, which sometimes causes stomach aches. (wtf?)
So, based upon thousands of 5 star reviews, I purchased the small Berkey Traveller for myself and have been running the bottled water through it. Yet, I still notice an odd chemical flavor. Thanks to your fine work, now I understand that Berkey isn't as great as most people believe.
I've also purchased a $350 5 stage under the sink filtration system, in hopes of avoiding the need to continuing to purchase drinking water. But, it's still waiting on a new sink cabinet.
Should have saved my money and chose the $29 ZeroWater, but I'm still a little concerned about plastic container contamination and algae growth from light exposure.
💡 Perhaps I can modify my Berkey to use ZeroWater filters! Free well water, through the 5 stage under sink filter, then ZeroWater filtration stored inside the stainless steel Berkey tank. 😜
Thanks Todd!

So much data with so few conclusions. What about the data regarding the harmful sociological affects of incarcerating marijuana users? Teenagers being expelled from their homes, criminal records that eliminate employment, forced illegal survival...
Is this a goldfish who knows all about humans or a human who thinks she knows all about goldfish? Reminds me of my sheltered life, Jesus freak older brother, who thinks he knows more than I about cannabis, regardless of my 50 years of daily usage.
I have 0 arrests, 0 traffic accidents, and 0 psychological problems (although I reject society's madness). How many life long alcoholics can honestly say the same? How many alcoholics become aggressive, belligerent, violent, batter their wives, abuse their children, have car wrecks, and commit gun killings?
BTW, as a peace loving old hippie, I don't even own a gun. IMO, the world needs more marijuana, LSD, and mushrooms but less alcohol, meth, Rx drugs, and Fentanyl.

@imwrongbutlisten Listen, Mr. Wrong. I don't know whether you are one of Putin's trolls or a misinformed tRumptarded traitor.
But, your both sides are guilty BS wreaks of disrespect towards the American government, the Democrat party, our elected POTUS , and the undeniable majority of We the People, who kicked tRump's corrupt, self-serving, sorry ass out of OUR Oval office.
HE gave a $2 Trillion tax break give away to the billionaire, dark money super PAC donors of the GQP, who crammed Citizens United through Congress. THAT is why politicians are serving their donors, instead of We the People.
How can you expect Dems to take any higher moral ground against billionaire donations to the party of failed tinkle upon Reaganomics, which has only resulted in decades worth of our government being underfunded to the current ~$32 Trillion.... $7 Trillion of that being during tRump's 4 years in office.
How much did Bush's Middle East wars cost US in lost revenues and lives?
President Biden has stopped most of that BS, while uniting and strengthening the NATO, without putting US boots on the battleground in Ukraine, which has avoided WWIII.
For decades, Dems have been pushing for campaign finance reforms, comprehensive immigration legislation, gun regulations, and tax reforms.
The Dems held tRump accountable TWICE with impeachments, as well as exposing his treasonous behavior with the House Jan 6th Commission's public hearings.
You can't both sides the Dems by smearing tRump's BS on them. His 'loyalist' Q-nuts of the BS Freedom Caucus are disgracing our nation and their offices with outrageous behavior, attempting to rewrite history, save tRump's legacy, and deliberately sabotage Congress by grandstanding in front of cameras for their radical right wing cult of donors.
You can pretend to be willfully ignorant of the facts, but I'm here to set the record straight, tRumptard.

tRump's 1st action will be to order MAGA Mike to put that Border Security bill onto the House floor for a vote, in order to take the credit for signing it into law.
tRump never accomplishes anything. He only steals the credit from others' accomplishments.
He had no idea that SCOTUS would rule on Dobbs. He only claimed the credit, until it became so unpopular, then backtracked to what Roe was to begin with.
He didn't provide stimulus checks during COVID, Congress did, then he had his signature printed onto those checks to make those recipients believe it was his generosity that was supporting them.
He claimed Obama's great economy, before blowing it on crony billionaire tax loopholes.
Without knowing a single verse of the bible, he claims to be a Christian and the 'Chosen One' sent down from heaven by god... and Evangelicals believe it!
He will claim that the current 30,000 infrastructure projects.
When he pulls support from Ukraine, he will claim that he ended Biden's war, which Putin started.
The Donald, aka Mafioso don is nothing more than a 2-bit con.

@WasFakestCenturyAesthetics OUR guys never said that. Stop listening to Faux Spews versions of what Dems say and think.
ButI'll provide you with a few examples of tRump's chaotic term:
#1: While being impeached, tRump set Biden up to take the hit of a chaotic Afghan withdrawal, by betraying 20 years worth of our tRoops' blood sacrifices and negotiated with the Taliban, without consulting with the Pentagon. tRump freed 5000 Taliban, Al Qaeda, and ISIS terrorists from a Pakistani prison, promised they could have Afghanistan back... under Biden's term... out of vindictive spite.
#2: tRump reneged on the JPCOA deal for Iran to not enrich weapons grade uranium, which was in compliance with IAEA inspections until this year. Now, Iran is back on their warpath.
#3: China's military leaders were planning a pre-emptive attack against US, had tRump's insurrection succeeded. But, General Milley had to talk his counterparts down.
Need I type you a book, just because of your willful ignorance?

Yes, well stated.
'pro-life', such a virtuous sounding initiative, isn't it? 'Freedom caucus' is another.
Yet, these people reject scientific facts, demonize anyone who disagrees with their superstitions, risk everyone's lives by not getting vaccinated or wearing masks, and congregate in social groups and churches, because their faith will protect them.
They pray for the end of the world, instead of helping to save 'His' creation.
They won't allow a pregnant woman to abort her own 'innocent, helpless' fetus, but enjoy their nice tender veal steak.
Their holy book says don't kill, but they all have guns to kill whoever insults their faith or family. smh
God;s children? Impetuous immature brats, IMO.

Biden's 1st year approval rating is the same as tRump's, which was prior to the COVID pandemic shutdowns, 1 million deaths, supply chain disruptions, Ukraine invasion, global sanctions, and inflation caused by corporations' opportunistic price gouging.
Thanks to Biden's effective leadership we're hitting 70% herd immunity, COVID deaths are rare, our economy is strong, unemployment is down, wages are up, and we're on the right path to a more sustainable, energy independent future.
None of the above would be happening under tRump, the mafioso don, the traitor to our democratic principles.
Does anyone here believe that tRump would have or could have rallied NATO together to stand against Putin's invasion of Russia? The UN laughed in his face, didn't they?

You wanna know what's burning my ass, Paul?
MAGA Traitor Goon is leading Cavin' McCarthy by his nose to sabotage Congress just to gain power by appeasing their 'mafioso don' and his tRumptarded traitors.
McCarthy is touting his House's radical right wing wish list as being a viable budget in order to extort concessions out of President Biden.... OR ELSE they will deliberately devastate the US and global economies. "Just give them an offer they can't refuse," says 'the don' so that's exactly what they're doing.
At this very minute, President Biden is serving our nation in SE Asia, as a respected seasoned diplomat, by leading the G7 nations to provide alternative manufacturing and supply chains from China, in order to end US dependencies and decades' worth of pouring US $ into a nation that is using it to fund their own MIC against US.
But, the REAL burn is that Biden is being forced to cancel part of his long planned negotiations, which involves extensive, expensive advance Secret Service security planning.
Why? Because of McCarthy and MTG's BS threatening our nation!!
What signal does it send to the world that the experienced life-long Congressman, VP, and POTUS can be obstructed from performing his duties by a few Q-nut Congressional freshmen, who only want to impress the REAL mafioso criminal family, named tRump?

"Well, e're going to need to witness a long term miracle, before admitting that Biden's administration has solved every lingering problem from the global COVID pandemic shutdowns.
WTF, is wrong with MSM pundits? They get a few minutes, in front of a TV camera, then start spilling their petty, half-baked political grievances all over US, like Sunday morning wannabe experts, with a wish list, ignorant of the damage being inflicted upon the American psyche.
When has the US ever been 100% problem free?
Why is it so difficult to say a word of praise or thanks for saving our nation, now only now, but decades into the future?
'Oh Dearie me... tsk, tsk. Why are Biden's polling #s so low? Why don't voters know about President Biden's miraculous accomplishments, both here and abroad?"
Polling = MSM messaging, get it?
Americans only believe whatever they read in echo chambers or what they hear pundits saying.
Why must a hermit resort to lecturing MSM pundits on responsible journalism (No offense to Margaret Brennon, being among the most responsible, IMHO)? /smh

@josephwilson3077 Then, I suggest that you consider wearing non petroleum based clothing.
I'm also a realist, by only using a cellphone in case of emergencies during my 30 mile grocery run into town in a 2000 Flex fuel Ford Taurus, because I can't afford an EV.
Everybody is somewhere, living under mitigating circumstances. But, if everyone were simply a little more mindful of their impact upon the natural world, then it wouldn't hurt.
Am I being hypocritical by expressing my support of sustainable energy to the world within these YT comments? Perhaps. But, it still feels good to encourage others to be more mindful of their lifestyles.
I've quit all motorsports, don't support millionaires playing with their balls, NEVER watch gun channels, and spend most of my days triggering, insulting, and shaming tRumptarded traitors as a matter of personal patriotic duty.
Everybody's somewhere. Everywhere I go, there I am.

The Green Bay Sweep had already been successfully initiated by Josh Hawley and the Senate was in the process of going into recess to replace the legit electoral votes with the fake ones, when it was foiled by tRump's own mob, who were storming the Capitol.
How ironic that tRump's mob actually succeeded in stopping the election from being stolen BY TRUMP's OWN CONSPIRACY!
WHAT A F'ING IDIOT, stumbling over his own conspiracies!
But, what ever happened to those fake electors?
Was their failed attempt on 1/6/21 only a rehearsal?
Have the red states officially replaced their legit electors?
Are they now positioned and better prepared to overthrow the popular votes in 2024?
IMO, this is the reason for Republicans being so blatantly obvious with their extremely radical right wing agenda of anti-abortions, anti-LGBTQ, as well as defunding the DoJ, FBI, DHS, IRS, and EPA in order to keep tRump out of prison and to use tax breaks for backhanded donations from their billionaire donors. They're basically scratching each other's backs, while causing the underserved and alienated to live in the streets, off of prostitution and drug dealing. Of course, that's why guns are needed in order for the haves to defend themselves against the have-nots.

What a BS poll, only among those who disapprove of Biden's efforts to save lives! Why aren't Biden's supporters being represented? Can't allow approval to challenge discontent, can we? Who wants to hear a happy news report, nowadays? No ratings in that, are there, MSM?
A #1: Who provided more confusing COVID misinformation than tRump? Drinking bleach, internal UV probes, hydroxychloroquine, pushing vaccines onto the market w/o FDA approval?
A #2: Promoting vaccine mandates has potentially saved millions of lives.
A #3: Within 6 months of being in office, this administration had distributed sufficient vaccines to immunize our entire population. Those same vaccines have proven to be effective against omicron. Only the unvaccinated are still dying, because of their own stubborn behavior.
A #4: Who cares about the increases of minor COVID cases? According to the CDC data, the number of deaths have dropped from 7.3 to .13 per 100K people, thanks to this administration's effective leadership.
Come on, Margaret. You're better than this irresponsible shitshow.

Killer police robots. /smh Hasn't anyone seen Robocop II?
Flash grenades, pepper spray, tasers, blinding lights, nor sonic disorientation will work, as alternative measures to enforce the law, so just forget about enforcing laws for due process and defendants' rights, eh?
No arrest, no prosecution, no trial, no judge, no jury, no due process of law. Simply send the robot in to blow up alleged suspects. What could possibly go wrong?
"Sorry Sweetheart, we honestly thought your father was the perp,"
"But, he was the one holding the gun, just seconds before the robot blew him up."
"The AI robot recognized the suspect from old mug shots, so we thought it was the same perp. Who are we to dispute a computer?"
"We couldn't see the hostages from the robo-cam's POV."

@partyboypelosi There's nothing 'simple' about legislation that determines how to differentiate between source nations, screen between the allowed and rejected regarding the millions of immigrants, many with families already being US citizens, etc.
Comprehensive immigration legislation has been kicked down the road for decades, mostly be Republicans, who have only wanted the club without solving the problem.
Biden, Dems, and the Senate have finally come to terms on a bipartisan bill. That's not the problem causing the gridlock.
The problem is that citizen tRump, the vengeful Mafioso don has the GQP cowards by their pubes and his know nothing MAGA saboteurs (and seditious conspirators of 1/6/21) in the House only want to disrupt our elected government with chaos, infighting, and obstruction.
NONE of this would be happening if Garland had put tRump in prison, out of sight, away from social media , and out of politicians' minds 2 years ago, instead of threatening our nation to appease Putin.
tRump wants 'little' people to suffer, because they will complain the loudest and blame their suffering on Biden. That's why he wants our economy to crash, before the election. He only wants to be elected in order to escape justice with 'executive immunity'. His MAGA conspirators will lie and cheat in order to be pardoned by him, IF they can distract from his criminality by conducting committee shit shows, desperately trying to link Hunter with the 100% clean POTUS.
Yes, it's an absolutely pathetic national disgrace on display, as the world of our allies watch in horror, while entertaining our enemies by demonstrating how weak and chaotic democracy is. In their dictatorship, tRump's head would have been on public display years ago as a traitor.

Fred Sanchez You listen to too much right wing media, who misrepresent everything this administration does and says, usually sound bites taken out of context.
Biden has NEVER said that our borders are open and has even continued tRump's Title 42 pandemic restrictions. Otherwise, he has only been following long term immigration procedures and laws.
Vaccines are only mandatory for Federal employees and contractors. As the Federal CEO, President Biden has the authority to enforce 50 year old OSHA regulations for employers to provide a safe working environment.
Our US forces slipped out of Bagram military base without locals even noticing. The US trained Afghan military was expected to defend Bagram against the Taliban, which would have mad it the epicenter of a battleground. That made it impractical to use for civilian evacuations, especially since the Taliban could block the 40 mile road from Kabul.
So, Karzai airport was established, instead. Day one of the evacuations was chaotic, because of panicked mobs of Afghans flooding onto the runway. That was immediately dealt with by day 2.
After the Afghan government fled, successful diplomacy turned the Taliban enemy into allies, providing an airport security perimeter to control the crowds.
Apart from one suicide bomber, 125,000 Afghan allies and US citizens were smoothly evacuated to temporary multinational visa processing centers/shelters. That screening process is ongoing.
The Taliban are allowing all US citizens and valid document holders to leave the country.
BTW, regarding those 13 US troops, who lost their lives during that 3 week period, in the middle of a terrorist infested war zone; 1,800 Americans are being killed by guns in their own neighborhoods every 3 weeks.
tRump created the Afghan withdrawal problem. President Biden ended it.

Trumptards simply believe anything someone says, even criminals. Besides, that was what the police reported. Don't you think that it would worsen the sentence if he added hate crime to the charges? How about that police chief that diminished the reason to, "Had a bad day." Oh well then, everyone has had one of those.
I smell police protection all over this case. But, you just accept everything at face value, don't you.... unless it is about tRump losing the election, right? Then the whole world is wrong. smh
Furthermore, you start imagining him shooting Russian masseuses and human trafficking suspicions, then you run with that BS, pulled straight from your own ass.

Prior to becoming House Speaker, Caving McCarthy was punked into making major concessions to grant 20 inexperienced Freedom Caucus Q-nuts key positions of power in House committees, in order to even hold the gavel.
Part of his 'deal' was to allow only one member's vote to take the Speaker's gavel away. So, MTG has been leading him on her leash, ever since.
McCarthy is clearly unqualified to be interfering in sensitive matters of international security, especially as delicate and volatile as the China/Taiwan dispute.
McCarthy is weak, out of his depth and a serious threat to US national security. That's why we have an experienced Sec of State and foreign diplomats, who understand those cultures and their sensitive issues to avoid misunderstandings. Congressional authority should be limited to domestic matters.
International diplomacy should only be conducted between official international diplomats and between Presidents.
Taiwan's President should know better than to meet with McCarthy, especially not after Xi had warned her not to and apparently Biden knew better than to invite her to meet him in DC.
Yet, here she is, posing for photos, while inside the cockpit of a US fighter jet, similar the ones being sent to Taiwan. Xi won't let this slide, without repercussions against Taiwan.

I'm so glad to see this. It clearly shows the DNC establishment's corrupt bias against Tulsi. Her 1st question was nothing more than a setup to turn Dem voters against her. They already knew how she would answer.
After that, Harris continued to attack Tulsi with the 'Russian operative, party traitor' smear. But, as soon as she took that cheap shot, the nationally broadcast video feed was mysteriously 'interrupted' precisely during Tulsi's response, then it resumed precisely as she was finishing. It was far too perfect to have been a coincidental technical malfunction. I'm so glad that we can now see how eloquently she responded.
But, their corruption didn't end there, as this video illustrates, Tulsi was blatantly robbed of air time. 8 minutes total, while the party favorites were called upon over and over. I'd love to see a comparison of screen times.
Oh, but it didn't stop there. While the Washington post interviewed other candidates afterwards, Tulsi wasn't among them. Yet, the commentators continued to push the party's narrative against her.
The DNC have demonstrated exactly what Tulsi has been saying. They are just as corrupt and rotten as the Republican party.
My Republican acquaintances have tried to convince me of this in the past, but I always brushed it off as them drinking too much right wing rhetoric. But, after last night's disgraceful hit job against Tulsi, I believe them.
The members of the debate panel, most of whom I have been a loyal fan of, have only brought shame upon themselves, never again will I accept their words on face value.
F'em! I'm changing my registered party affiliation to Independent and will join the ranks that believe both parties are equally corrupt.
Tulsi was the only truthful and totally honest candidate on that stage last night. But, the corrupted DNC can't handle the truth. It only proves that we need Tulsi's centrist, bipartisan leadership more than ever to clean up our political system.
This is who the DNC fear and smears:
@
Aloha!🤙
Aloha! Tulsi Gabbard 2020!🤙 Please help her save our democracy.🙏

Sheriff Judd is a very entertaining story teller. But, he is using this particular story to justify the 'rights' of untrained citizens to use lethal force against a thief (at that point in time). Is it a mere coincidence that the perpetrator just happens to be black? Why did the sheriff conflate the attempted car theft with the owner's handgun, calling it an armed robbery? The perp wasn't armed and didn't use any force against any individual.
IMO, the car owners took appropriate action to defend themselves without killing a man over attempted theft. Even they understood the meaning of 'justifiable homicide' and didn't feel that killing the perp was justified. In the end, they appropriately reported the incidents to the police, who apprehended the perp, w/o killing him. This sheriff is saying, if you see a crime, just kill the SOB.
Where does America draw the line? Should a store clerk or witness follow a shoplifter outside the store, then gun them down on the grounds of armed robbery because the clerk used a weapon during the course of a crime? The sheriff seems to propose that everyone should be armed and take law enforcement into their own hands.
What about all of the racist 'Karens' of the world, who claim that they are being threatened by a black person? Should nut cases be armed and 'stand their ground' every time a black person gets within 6 ft? Then we wonder why BLM protests are happening over of blacks being murdered by police on camera. IMO, the black reporter understood racial profiling and was asking the correct questions and was receiving the wrong message. He was trying to reduce racial injustice by suggesting more appropriate police procedures that fit the crime(s). Apparently, everyone else is totally on board with whites murdering blacks for any excuse.
No, America is NOT a nation of vigilante justice. In fact, it is illegal, just as the 17 yr old Mr Rittenhouse is learning the hard way after going out of his way to kill two people in Portland with an AR. We pay taxes to fund trained law enforcement officers to deal with criminals. We don't need to return to the wild wild west.
BTW, I'm an old white guy, who neither wants nor needs a gun. There have been several times in my life when I would have use one and ended up in prison. IMO, only pussies need guns to defend themselves against other pussies with guns. I'm intelligent enough to avoid pussies with guns. No problem.

Biden's administration invested far more than that to support unemployed workers, out of school children, parents, retirees, and small businesses; with SNAP nutrition that reduced child hunger by 40%; provided eviction and foreclosure moratoriums, to keep families in their homes; stimulus checks for most US citizens; Social Security COL increases, for the elderly; free vaccinations for every US citizen, who wanted one, which saved millions of lives.
tRump's own Dr Birke said that his gaslighting was responsible for ~1/2 million anti-vaxxer deaths.
President Biden has been providing for the needs of US citizens, has employed 14 million jobs, is bringing manufacturing back home, is developing sustainable energy manufacturing, restoring our neglected crumbling infrastructure, and much much more.
Stop complaining about his righteous leadership and start paying attention.

How disingenuous for a Repuke to complain about Dems not negotiating in good faith, while they refuse to negotiate at all.
"Again, what is the Republican's plan to address climate change," asks Margaret.
"Uhh, well, what we don't want is what the majority wants... we're on the path to being like Germany" wtf?!
You're saying that Dems are like Nazis, Congressman?! Last time I checked, today's Germany is the strongest economy in Europe, with a happy, productive, well educated workforce.
Looks to me like when our Congress only allows 1/2 of a climate change bill ot pass, then the rest of the world follows suite with only half of the required commitment, as well.
Why? Because of 2 DINOs, who refused to hold their party's line, like the other side of the aisle, who can't negotiate, legislate, compromise, nor contribute to helping their own nation. One raised eyebrow from tRump cowers them into pathetic toads.

TMI, IMO Today, we've heard the POTUS, 2 Pentagon military generals, and the State Dept answering the same questions from reporters, all implying that the withdrawal is an operational disaster, everything should have been foreseen, and more orderly.
The top brass can lay the best of plans, but the Afghan people and the Taliban are unpredictable and will behave however they like. This situation is very emotionally charged, volatile, and changes every minute on the ground.
"Come on, Man. Give me a break." Everyone in this administration and our military are doing the best they can under very difficult circumstances.
BTW, tRumptards, your idol and Pompeo planned this shit show in Feb 2020, just to minimize US troop losses, until after the election for political advantage over Biden. If the Taliban held off their attacks, then the US would pull out on 5/1/21. Period. Protection of the Afghan contractors were not even considered, much less any details regarding the logistics of US troop withdrawals.

TOTAL BS from self proclaimed talking heads looking backwards at irrelevant statistics, while ignoring the current pandemic, which completely blows away their negative predictions.
Where's their historical data point for a POTUS who has taken our nation from the worst deaths per capita to the fastest economic recovery in the world, WITHIN THE FIRST 9 MONTHS?
Why are they using today's poll numbers, instead of the midterm year polling, like their other models?
Why don't they make a logical assumption that Biden will be far more popular once people start seeing the benefit of his BBB agenda, a booming economy, and no more pandemic? With 100% GQP obstructionism, Biden and Dems are 100% responsible for all of those success factors.
Why aren't these talking heads considering the impact of tRump's election meddling and his proposed new party, dividing the Conservative vote?
Why aren't they factoring in the political blowback after the results of the tRump and Jan 6th investigations are publicly revealed? How many Freedom Caucus members will be impeached and/or imprisoned?
Why isn't this program being scheduled for September 2022, instead of making foolish predictions while so many major factors are in limbo?
Are we going to have to suffer tiresome reruns of this for the next year? JUST SHOOT ME NOW TO SAVE ME THE MISERY!

@sg337 I feel sorry for your father's condition, but that doesn't prove anything against President Biden's mental capacity. Yes, there were 19 Democrat candidates competing in the 2020 primary election, including VP Harris.
But, Joe Biden knew that none of them had a chance in hell of defeating tRump. That's the only reason that Joe Biden came out of retirement and stepped up to the plate to defend our nation against a corrupt, lying, cheating idiot who had already seriously damaged our nation.
Voters turned out in record numbers to dump tRump, therefore Joe Biden succeeded in saving our nation from its own ignorance. So, GTF off his back, especially while he is honoring our fallen troops. when did you ever see tRump doing that?
I'm very pleased to have a mature, empathetic, experienced, internationally respected statesman as our POTUS. President Biden is EXACTLY the mild mannered leader that the USA needs during these trying times of social unrest, COVID pandemic, economic crisis, and global climate change.
This administration is ethnically diverse and is effectively tackling all of America's immediate and long term problems simultaneously.
Grow TF up, Kid.

@Rays_Bad_Decisions Your parroting of right wing extremist phrases only expose your inability to grasp reality.
Hillary's past control over the DNC is irrelevant to the mass of ~83 million voters who chose Joe Biden to become our POTUS.
Yes, I fully agree that our nation was nearly destroyed by the ignorant, under educated, uncivilized, tRumptard traitors, who tried to overthrow our democracy on Jan 6th, literally willing to use lethal violence to steal the election away from We the People. What could be more stupid and/or treasonous? Now, they are being held accountable with prison sentences, while 'ratting out' their Congressional conspirators.
President biden has literally saved millions of American lives with his fast distribution of the vaccines. tRump is still killing his own tRumptard supporters with super spreader rallies, conning them out of donations and rousing his rebels into a frenzy of your kind of BS.
Piss off and leave me alone, tRumptard traitor.

@Rays_Bad_Decisions You have no facts and ar only able to accuse me of lying.
IF you ever learned to read, you would discover that the Mueller report clearly states that there is substantial evidence that there was Russian collusion, but AG Barr blocked those investigations because of his BS policy of 'Executive Immunity'. Therefore, the DoJ would not even go there. that's also what blocked tRump's first Impeachment conviction. But, he was still impeached by the House, TWICE.
Since then, Paul Manafort was convicted of sharing classified RDC polling data for Russian trolls to target voters in the final 5 swing states, which tRump narrowly won.
IOW, tRump only became POTUS by lying and cheating. Then tRump pardoned Manafort before leaving office. That's a fact, Jack.
The alleged Trump Towers phone taps by Obama were nothing more than debunked right wing BS, tRumptard.
You really need to stop watching Fucker Cursin and Faux Spews. You're weak little mind has become brainwashed.

@Rays_Bad_Decisions What would you know about open minded rational debates? Everything you spew is nonsense. "Vaccine that does not vaccinate", really? How many vaccinated ppl have died of COVID? How many hospitalized COVID patients are not vaccinated? MSM, blah, blah, blah. Woke nazis, blah, blah, blah. what do you have to say about that Nazi stage and those nazi salutes at last year's CPAC and that golden Bob's Big Boy idol? What about Pappy tRump's Nazi business partner and Steve Miller?
No matter what you spew, it just keeps bouncing back into your face, doesn't it?
Why don't you give it up, because you're trying to pick a fight with someone way above your class, Punk.

Despite the pathetic lack of MSM coverage, President Biden just met in Califirnia to mend the relations between the 2 most powerful nuclear nations on the planet. Thanks to President Biden's effective diplomacy, we have returned to direct communications between our military leaders, which makes the entire world a much safer place to live. President Xi stated the same good will between US and China.
It is a disgrace that MTP and MSM only want to brodacast negative narratives to the public which does a lot of harm to US. They are as bad as Faux Spews, which has been fined $billions over election disinformation.
NO ONE is supporting 8 million illegal immigrants entering our country. That's exactly what I'm talking about. But tRump and Republicans have exploited every opportunity brodacast that to the world for over the past 8 years. Guess what?
The world watches American TV and interpret "open border" as an open invitation to head for the land of milk and honey. But, no one else in the US gets it... except for the Republican Congressmen who have been going to the Rio Grande with Fox camera crews in the middle of the night to demonstrate how easily immigrants are crossing the border. Except their cameras never show BP taking those illegals into custody beyond the FOV.
If those Republican Congressmen wanted to solve the problem, then why have they wasted decades by obstructing Comprehensive Immigration Reform legislation in Congress, which is their duty, not the POTUS'?
President Biden has been performing diplomatic miracles throughout the world, which are being willfully ignored by MSM. That's why his poll #s are so low. He has rallied our allies, strengthened NATO to stop Putin's invasion of Ukraine, without putting US boots onto the battlefield, which would hav triggered WW III.
He has defended Israel, while providing humanitarian aide to innocent Palestinian victims, who are caught in the middle between Israel and Hammas.
Biden has saved millions of US citizens from COVID with free nationwide vaccinations. His stimulus checks, eviction moratoriums, PPE didstibutions and SNAP have supported the unemployed and small businesses during the shutdowns. Grocery shelves are full again, no more supply chain shortages, and oue post-pandemic economy is the strongest in the world. Yes, there is still some residual inflation, but it's far lower than the rest of the world.
Please pay closer attention to President Biden's most accomplished administration is US history. 35,000 infrastructure projects throughout the nation are just breaking ground, which will inject $billions of union wages into local communities. His BBB agenda will promote sustainable energy, broadband internet and prosperity foover the next 10 years. Those bills were approed by Congress within his initial 2 years oin office.
Give the ole man credit where credit is due. At least he is not the traitor, being tried in federal courts with 91 counts of criminality, including mob racketeering and international espionage. Is that the kind of POTUS you want as a role model? Haven't you had your fill of his hateful, divisive anti-American rhetoric?

@JM-it2zo You like the deep waters? Dive into this, Friend.
God is immortal. God is omnipotent. God is beyond the alpha and the omega, existing before and after everything.
God decides when everything occurs in all lives from birth to death and everything in between.
God determines when a baby is born, laughs, cries, eats, drinks, defecates, walks, talks, goes to school, reaches puberty, mates, propagates, and dies.
Pay attention to God's signs to ensure success. Ignoring God's signs will only ensure failure.

@BrayOfTheDonkey I watched all of the televised House Jan 6th Hearings. VERY incriminating for tRump, his inner circle of seditious conspirators, election deniers, audits, fraudits, 60 dismissed court cases, attempted coups with AG Barr, the DoJ, and ordering the military to confiscate all voting machines.
The docs are still classified and won't be revealed. I doubt that cameras or recorders will be allowed into the courtroom, especially not broadcast live.
Most courtroom reporting is done via artists' drawings, and shared with the public after the hearing is over.
Just a glimpse of tRump being escorted to prison in handcuffs will make my day and dissuade his cult against any kind of civil war.
The National Guard won't be caught off guard under Biden's administration.
Fani Willis has already put the word out to be prepared for threats and violence.

#1: President Biden's job performance has been nothing less than outstanding, during the COVID pandemic shutdowns, when we needed his leadership the most.
#2:: MSM has been granting MAGA free exposure, as if they have any credibility as responsible legislators. Yet, the House has accomplished nothing but infighting and chaos.
#3: If A G Garland had performed his duties of prosecuting Mafioso don, the 2-bit con, 3 years ago, this election and our democracy wouldn't be in jeopardy.
#4: The Donald has become weakened by his self-inflicted illegal, fraudulent, criminal behavior. hate speech, Jan 6, 2 impeachments, stolen docs, etc.
#5: Any of many rising Dem stars could take him down, now at his lowest popularity among the GOP.
#6: Only fools ride a faithful old workhorse all the way into his grave.
Raskin/AOC/Buttigieg/Porter/? are younger, more eloquent, better educated, more energetic, have no old baggage, haven't been wounded by MAGA's Hunter attacks, and can carry on Biden's BBB agenda.
The DNC are foolishly placing their party, plus US national security, the economy, and our futures in jeopardy, based solely upon the past laurels of an old man, who has no guarantee of seeing tomorrow.

How many times did voters watch those 2 years' worth of constantly plated loops of panic crazed Afghans trying to ride the 1st cargo plane out of Kabu, with the narrative of "Biden's failed Afghan withdrawal"?
How any times did MSM report that it was tRump who negotiated withthe enemy Taliban leaders, promising them that they could have Afghanistan back, while he was under impeachment for Biden to take the political hit?
That was blatant treason, 'aiding and abetting the enemy."
You're 100% correct, the problem isn't bad Dem policies. The problem is 8 years' worth of MSM gifting tRump and his mouth pieces free broadcasting time, while playing the devil's advocate, as their excuse to dispute their Dem guests.
I'M TALKING TO YOU, CHUCK TODD AND KRISTIN WELKER.
tRump farts and the whole world knows. But, MSM never mentions the stench when he shits his Depends during meetings with foreign diplomats.
Kamala didn't fail, she was cheated out of 14 million missing ballots. Yet, Dems 'take the high road' without question and don't even challenge the results of blatantly obvious election cheating.

NO. tRump is a mafioso mob boss and everything he does projects it, even with his long black trench coat, straight out of the Godfather series. Crooked Hilary, li'l Marco, Lyin' Ted, Pocahontas, ... all of his opponents are given cutesie gangsta nicknames, just like 'Pretty Boy Floyd'..
The don NEVER incriminates himself but speaks in code, "Give them an offer they can't refuse."
1st week in the oval office, "the Donald", as Rosie knowingly called him, summoned every Republican Congressman to pledge their unwavering loyalty to him personally, while betraying their oaths of office. That's why they obey his every egotistical whim.
Once in the mob, there's no getting out without being destroyed by the godfather's revenge.
The don only chose to run as a Republican, because he knew that the party is corrupt and easy to control with blackmail.
They are in constant communication with their godfather, to be used as his puppets.
WOKE TF UP, VOTERS, before it's too late!!

"WHY?" Jonathon ignorantly asks!
Because of MSM's irresponsible both-sides-ism policies, granting 7 years worth of daily free exposure to tRump, his GQP representatives, and fearmongering about Biden's age, the border, inflation, and a year long consistent loop of one moment of panic-crazed Afghans chasing a cargo plane on a runway.
NOTHING about Biden's excellent global diplomacy, building alliances, strengthening NATO, providing alternative supply chains to China, 10 years' worth of anti-climate change initiatives within 1/2 a term with 1/2 of Congressional support.
BECAUSE OF IRRESPONSIBLE NEGATIVE MSM MESSAGING, JONATHAN!!

tRump, the don, puts out the word to his cult and they attack. Same with the Proud Boys, the 1/6/21 anarchist militias, and the radicalized white supremacists who attacked Asians, BLM, the election officials, Nancy Pelosi's husband, presumably Merrick Garland's family, and now Jack Smith's.
He knows better than to literally say exactly what he means and hides behind freedom of speech.
"Well that's what a lot of very smart people told me about Jack Smith's family..."
"This MUST stop NOW!"
"The corrupt deep state is coming after me!'
"Our nation is in danger!"
"MAGA!"
These are the exact same dog whistles that tRump had previously used to incite hate and violence. His loyal and obedient mob always gets the message, do his bidding, and inevitably take the fall of illegal consequences.... while the don gets his kicks by watching his own sheeple enthusiastically march to their own demise for him.

I'LL TELL YOU EXACTLY WHAT'S CHANGED AT THE BORDER...
Over the past 8 years, tRump and Republicans have exploited every opportunity to broadcast that the border is wide open, with illegals flooding in, blah, blah, blah.
THE ENTIRE F'ING WORLD WATCHES US MSM... DUBBED INTO THEIR OWN LOCAL LINGOS.
Instead of legislating, GQP Congressmen have been using Fox camera crews to demonstrate how easily immigrants are wading across the Rio Grande (but not them being taken into custody by BP).
How long would your home be secure if you spent years driving around your neighborhood with a bull horn, telling everyone that your doors are always open?
tRump and Republicans have been deliberately exasperating the border situation, just to scapegoat Dem administrations. Yet, apparently it takes a hermit to see what's going on.

This is a blatantly obvious authoritarian tRump fan, who wants to eliminate the restraints of law and order, including asylum, just to play as dirty as the cartels. This Sheriff ignores tRump's primitive camps of immigrants along the Mexican side of the border, who were easy prey for cartel coyotes. .
While pretending that hasn't been going on for decades, he decries 1000 'inhumane' deaths in the desert and blames them on Biden, instead of it being their own decision.
FYI, Sheriff, the world listens to US news reports, translated into their own native languages. Your broadcast of 'truth' is their invitation to head for our land of milk and plenty.
He actually slipped and stated that the border problem has become a crisis since tRump For the past 7 years, tRump has been telling the world that the US border is wide open for the crossing and dismantled ICE. Instead of doing their jobs of passing Immigrations legislation, Congressional Republicans have been deliberately going to the border, with Fox News camera crews, in the middle of the night to demonstrate to the world how easily illegals are crossing the Rio Grande (being apprehended by BP off camera, BTW). Congressional Republicans are trying to defund ICE
On the other hand, President Biden & Majorca are telling the world that the US border is NOT open. This administration has rebuilt ICE and has dramatically increased funding for border enforcement and surveillance.
Which message is causing the problem and which is a more responsible means of reducing the problem, Sheriff? You admit that this administration has included local law enforcement in meetings, considered your input, and have made changes in priorities. But, you think you know the bigger picture better than they. "Only you know how to fix it, eh"
@ 30:15 "My lane isn't Immigration." The most truthful comment this sheriff made.
IMO, Republicans need to STFU and do their jobs, instead of blaming Dems for treating the victims of ruthless cartel violence humanely.

@Lilyscoobs77 I disagree 100%. What's asinine is believing in ancient superstitions that human beings are divinely endowed above all other life forms, with immortal souls and life after death, while there is physical scientific evidence of billions of years' worth of evolution.
The fact that NO ONE can comprehend >8 billion years and the origins of the universe doesn't prove the existence of any omnipotent all-knowing god of creation.
Time is the undeniable, immortal god of all creation of life, planets, and solar systems. Time is the omnipotent destroyer of mountains that inevitably erode into the seas.
You indoctrinate your own children to believe in Santa Claus, watching their every move, making a list, then passing judgement upon 'who's naughty or nice', who will be rewarded or given coal at the end of the year... a lifetime for children.
But, you have never matured to learn the truth of it being nothing more than an authoritarian scam to control weak minded sheeple.
Your crucified Christ ain't ever coming back to your town, Bible thumper.
FYI, I wasted most of my life searching for divine guidance, but only found mankind's greedy dirty finger prints all over the manuscripts.
Now, I'm 100% free from an enslaved mind and 100% content in accepting my own mortality and inevitable demise back to the earth, just like every other creature that has/will ever exist.
NO ONE controls me. I control and am responsible for my own life's choices.
Sucks to be you, Mr Asinine. You have no divine authority. You are the opposite of higher morality.

Reiner summed it up perfectly, "This is not a religious movement. This is a political movement for power."
That's exactly why our Founders added the amendment, "Congress shall make no laws, with regards to religion..."
Yet, here we are with authoritarian religious zealots sabotaging our Congress, national security, our economy, and sacrificing Ukrainians' lives, just to appease Putin's puppet and the morally bankrupt, wannabe dictator, who incited the attack upon Congress in order to cling to Executive immunity' from committing treason.

Why would voters be happy with Biden, after 6 months of: Afghanistan, Afghanistan, Afghanistan,
Then another 3 months of:
Supply chain blockages, blockages, blockages,
Then, Russia, Russia, Russia,
inflation, inflation, inflation!
President Biden has done a fantastic job of addressing every problem, but MSM has constantly hounded him like a pack of hyenas.
Voters let Biden down by handing him an equally divided, dysfunctional Congress. Now, their taking it out on Dems for being unable to overcome constant filibuster abuse?
Why would any sane US voter cast a ballot for Republicants?
IT'S YOUR MESSAGING, STUPID!!
YOU ARE HANDING CONGRSS TO TRUMPTARDED TRAITORS!!!

@mandywatson. You should be ashamed of yourself for being so disrespectful of our globally respected President Biden, tRumptard.
The UN supports him, NATO is stronger than ever, because of his leadership.
Obviously, Ukrainians love America, because of his military support, without the US putting boot on their land that would trigger WW III.
President Biden has saved millions of lives with COVID vaccination distributions to the point of herd immunity. Only tRuptarded anti-vaxxers are still dying of COVID.
Presiden Biden's BBB agenda is bringing manufacturing back from Chinese sweat shops, which have been funding the Chinese military.
President Biden has already passed bills for rebuilding our neglected crumbling infrastructure for the next decade. Hi energy policies is making US less dependant upon corporate oil, who have been gouging US at the pumps and causing inflation.
Thanks to President Biden's care, our post- pandemic economy is the strongest in the world and our lives have returned to normal, with businesses and schools open.
Yes, you should be damned ashamed of yourself and simply STFU.

Didn't you hear President Biden explain that his EO only applies to those, who are already here, with families, including natural born US citizens, the children of these DACA children of undocumented immigrants?
tRump wants to round up all but their natural US born children, split up those families and deport the US educated, DACA workers/taxpayers to countries they have never lived in, as well as their illegal immigrant parents.
As always, simple thinking rarely solves complicated problems. Biden is fully briefed by all parties, then comes to a decent, humane, compromise that would normally be bipartisan enough to pass through Congress, in regular order... if not for tRump pulling MAGA's leadership strings for personal retribution.

For the past 8 years, I have been debunking MAGA's lies in these comments.
For the past 3 years, I have been defending Biden's administration and the ruthless racial, homophobic, and personal attacks against KJP, underneath her briefings. Often, I was asked, "Who is paying you to defend Biden?"
Yesterday, I did the same on behalf of the MSNBC panel, covering the RNC's convention, against the mob of MAGA trolls, by asking them, " Who is paying you to betray our nation?"
To my dismay, MSNBC censured my comments and blocked me from continuing.
How am I supposed to actively oppose Project 2025 and a wannabe dictator, who is leading in the polls?

@doc.christopherthompson324 No. TheHermit is an atheist, who doesn't believe in heaven, hell, nor in any immortal soul with an afterlife nor reincarnation. Demons and demigods only exist within the insane minds of brainwashed sheeple of mankind's religions, which only exist to control the masses.
IMO, we only get one shot at life. Each one is unique and precious. So, live it to the fullest, with honor and decency. There's no need to fear death. It is merely the end of life's natural cycle. But, I don't tempt it with foolish, irresponsible behavior.
My life is only relevant to myself. The continuance of all life on Earth is far more significant. Mankind has been the Earth's cancer. Now, that scientists understand that fact, it is time to evolve into being the cure. Otherwise, our existence has no meaning.
If you take issue with my beliefs, please address me directly, instead of trying to ridicule me to others, like a coward.

@littlemissbossy1000 Just a left handed US citizen, with common sense and decent moral convictions. I put my faith in provable science, not fairy tales. I support our POTUS, human rights, racial equality, and mitigating man made climate change to preserve the only known life forms in the Universe. I support the US Constitution and the vision of our Founding Fathers. I hate guns and ignorant people who need them to impose their values upon others.
I don't call that extreme in any way.
I call the GQP conspiracies, insurrectionists, and naive tRumptard traitors extreme.
But, the fact is, you don't know me, can't categorize me, nor label me.
I'm an independent thinker, inventor, and a solitary hermit because of crazy ass people like you. Now that I'm comfortably retired, I don't need to put up with any BS from anyone and don't give a damn about what others think of me.
If you've got any problems with me, then FO and leave me alone.

@edwhite7078 No one controls me, but myself. I freely choose to believe in provable scientific facts, regardless of where the facts lead.
Scientists have to be objective, without personal agendas. They certainly aren't motivated to control people, but only to solve problems. Without them, we would still be living in caves, which I don't, BTW. Nor am I homeless. FYI, not that it's any of your business, I own a 4 bedroom, 2 bath home on 5 acres of foothill property. I'm comfortably retired and 100% independent of society's influence. But, I like to keep an eye on it and express my POV.
What's your excuse?

@Koi G I'm not reviewing 100 comments to find your reference, but the only fearmongers I know are the right wingers, who only know how to spew doom and gloom about Biden's agenda, especially tRumptards. His entire con was nothing more than "radical left wing Democrats, who only want to take away your freedom and destroy our nation."
In fact, that was precisely tRump's primary objective, which was proven last Jan 6th.
"I'm the only one who can save our nation." smh
On the other hand, President Biden passed the ARP stimulus bill, which distributed vaccines to stop the pandemic (which tRumptards refuse to take), save families from being evicted into the streets, save small businesses from bankruptcies , etc, etc, etc. Biden is trying to lift up the downtrodden victims of COVID, but Republicants only want to leave poor folks struggling, while giving away tax breaks to the filthy rich.
You only need to pay attention to the politicians own words and ignore the pundits, who only seek ratings with grossly exaggerated rhetoric. Don't believe YT strangers. Do your own research.

@noahsark1962 Common sense tells me that taking safe(r), simple & easy appropriate measures to protect myself and those around me is about as basic critical thinking as one can have.
Considering the success rate, the lack of side affects, and number of unvaccinated who are still being hospitalized and dying, it is illogical and insane to continue resisting a couple of jabs.
That doesn't even factor in the consequences of more lock downs, online schooling, no child care, parents stuck at home, bills piling up, unpaid mortgages & rents, etc, etc, etc...
F**k any individual who puts our nation in economic jeopardy, just for the sake of their own selfish stubbornness
Why even bring illegal immigrants and politics into this discussion? Can't you focus upon a single subject, without creating distractions and resorting to whataboutisms?

@Luke_Freeman I appreciate and respect your civil voice. I wasn't very interested in politics until I heard Obama's campaign. After Bush's ME disaster, based upon lies of WMDs, which had nothing to do with Al Qaeda's attack on NYC, I was repelled by the corruption within the RNC. Trump has only made bad matters worse. I hate that man with a vengeance. Right wingers don't even try to defend his mafioso illegal activities and pathological lies. They only distract the subject with, "Well what about ________?" IOW, their moral compass relies upon not being worse than the worst BS conspiracy theory about some Dem, which usually is so ancient that there's no legitimate comparison.
However, last fall I witnessed the DNC and MSM undermine viable candidates during the debates, such as Tulsi Gabbard among others. So, I no longer identify with them, either.
Then, there was the shameful behavior of the Republican Congressmen during the impeachment hearings and trials. They have taken political corruption through the roof, blatantly spinning an alternative universe of 'fake news'. They are the pawns of Trump, complicite enablers of his criminal activity, and conspirators against our nation and its Constitutional laws. IMO, they are all traitors against everything our once great nation has stood for.
"can't stand people who relentlessly berate for political leverage and gain,..." Trump has done this at every rally and public appearance, demonizing over half of American voters. Now, his misinformation and lies for political gain are killing our citizens by the thousands. Trump is an insult to the scum he is.
IMO, Biden doesn't have enough fight inside him to defeat Trump's upcoming $1 Billion propaganda campaign, dubbed the 'Death Star'. Without Obama's support, our nation is doomed.

Within less then one minute, this smelled like a fishy anti-gov right wing hit job. So I googled it:
"The Institute for Justice (IJ) is a libertarian non-profit public interest law firm in the United States.[4][5][6] It has litigated ten cases before the United States Supreme Court dealing with eminent domain, interstate commerce, public financing for elections, school vouchers, tax credits for private school tuition, civil asset forfeiture, and residency requirements for liquor license. The organization was founded on September 3, 1991.[7] As of 2023, it employed a staff of 157 full-time staff members (including 64 attorneys) in Arlington, Virginia and seven offices across the United States."
IOW, this is a small, privately funded "non profit" team of attorneys taking on the FBI. I don't believe this video is telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth about the contents of those boxes in the possession of a "private security-deposit box company in Beverly Hills." "Indiscriminately opened" by the FBI.
Was this $ stashed by drug cartels or human traffickers, undeclared to the IRS as viable income?
NO REPUTABLE LAW FIRM WOULD BROADCAST THIS, PRIOR TO AN ACTIVE COURT HEARING.
THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS.

@aaronjohnson1005 Thank you for the respectful debate.
No, the NATO treaty has NOT been violated, because NATO has not extended beyond Germany's borders, until Finland and Sweden were recently provoked by Russia to join.
Furthermore, Ukraine hasn't been inducted into NATO, despite begging for membership. Of course, that would only incite Putin's anger and would increase the chance of nuclear escalation.
This is what Wikipedia's history says:
"During the Cold War 1947–1991, Germany was divided, with East Germany under Communist control and under the close watch of Moscow, which stationed a large military force there and repressed an uprising in 1953. Since the end of the Cold War and German reunification, in 1989–91, Germany and Russia have developed a "Strategic Partnership" in which energy is indisputably one of the most important factors. Germany and Russia depend on each other for energy, namely in Germany's need for energy from Russia and Russia's need for heavy German investment to develop its energy infrastructure.
Relations turned highly negative in 2014 in response to Russia's seizure of Crimea from Ukraine and support for insurgents in Ukraine. Germany was a leader between NATO Quint in imposing round after round of increasingly harsh European Union sanctions against the Russian oil and banking industries and top allies of President Vladimir Putin. Russia responded by cutting food imports from the EU."
Putin has only brought the ire of the world against his own people and nation. His obsolete military is being decimated, the Russian economy is collapsing, and it's only a matter of time, before he is assassinated by his own sanctioned oligarchs over governing so irresponsibly.You need to get off President Biden's back. He is making the best possible decisions after being dealt a bad hand of cards... yet always winning for Americans.

@aaronjohnson1005 tRump's tariffs against China only resulted in our soybean farmers losing their primary customer to Brazil and competing suppliers.
Then, taxpayers had to compensate their loss of income, so tRump's BS against China only bit US in the ass.
Who is our primary supplier of tech gadgets, which we love and depend upon so much? China. Why is our auto industry crippled because of supply shortages of IC's? China has US by our balls.
That slippery slope didn't begin with Obama. It began ~50 years ago, with under-regulated 'free trade' capitalization, maximizing profits by exploiting Chinese sweat-shop labor.
China's policy has always been to provide the manufacturing in exchange for signing away the Intellectual Rights of the products they produce.
Americans have always believed tha tour superior intellect could stay ahead of Chinese copy-cats. NOT!
Free enterprise has always been the
GOP's mantra, without objections, until tRump's self destructive anti-China rhetoric.
President Biden's BBB agenda is all about enticing manufacturers back home with investment incentives. He recently passed the CHIPs act for that very purpose. US Companies are already returning, as well as Chinese investors, creating hundreds of thousands of good paying jobs while making US more independent.
This administration is solving problems, while Republicants only know how to piss and moan, without any proposals on the table.
"Of course the art of speech is like a game of chess 😆 if I can’t win saying something directly you speak indirectly lol"
I'm not playing any games of chess, nor speaking indirectly about anything. I'm directly disputing your right wing rhetoric. So, its fine for you to falsely blame Obama, yet I'm not allowed to mention BS tRumpisms?
Fine, we'll not engage in whataboutisms and debate policies.
Oh, that's right, the GQP's only policy is wasting time and taxpayer $ on investigating Hunter's laptop conspiracy.

@namename6797 Bagram base was 40 miles away from Kabul, with a single road that was vulnerable to IEDs and attacks by ISIS and Al Qaeda. Bagram was only a military airbase with no facilities for feeding and accommodating civilian masses nor processing visas.
Once our troops evacuated Bagram, it was assumed that it would become the epicenter of a war zone between the Taliban and Afghan Security forces. No place for civilians.
So, our military slipped out of Bagram in the middle of the night, without the locals even noticing, nor one shot being fired. They literally disappeared into the night. Brilliant
Then the anticipated dangerous civilian evacuation mission was relocated to Kabul for quick, convenient access by civilians located within and near the densely populated capitol.
In and out within 3 weeks, before the terrorists could organize an effective attack upon the airport. Anti-missile defenses were prepositioned to ward off those potential attacks. Excellent strategy.
No one expected the Taliban to overthrow the Afghan government immediately, nor the resultant 1 day's rush of the panick-crazed Afghans flooding onto the runway (which was played on a continuous daily loop for months on end, imprinting that image upon Americans, making the mission appear chaotic). Yet, with effective diplomacy, instead of responding with military force to defend Kabul, our enemy became our allies, and even provided perimeter security for crowd control and safe passage of US citizens for evacuating.
Under the circumstances, how could the situation have been better?
The Taliban agreed to allow the military presence until Aug 31. No doubt, there would have been daily public beheadings of westerners, until we were gone. President Biden succeeded in evacuating over 125,000 US citizens and afghan civilians prior to meeting that deadline, with only minutes to spare.
Still, the Taliban provided escorts and safe passage of US citizens out of the country. Whoever wants to leave are allowed to leave.
Sorry, but I don't see any failures over these dangerous missions. Intel even warned our troops at Abbey Gate about the imminent attack by the 'lucky' suicide bomber. But, they left the gate open to allow British trops to escort their civilians into the airport.
Yes, there was one case of intel's mistaken identification of a white Toyota car bomb that was tracked for 6 hours, before being targeted by a drone, killing some Afghan civilians.
Meanwhile, EVERY 3 weeks, 1,800 US citizens are killed by gun violence in their own neighborhoods.
IMO, the critics of Biden's Afghan withdrawal don't understand the facts, have unrealistic expectations, and/or simply want to kick and old man who has saved millions of lives and our nation's democracy against another disastrous term of xenophobic tRumpism.

Wee doggies! It just tickles my li'l pea-pickin' heart whenever I hear a good ole boy that was raised to be nobody's fool.
All the folks talk like that, where I came from and ~90% are still tRumptards, believing that a silver-spoon-fed, $20K allowanced, spoiled rotten, lying, cheating, narcissistic, pussy-grabbing, whoremongering, 3 time bankrupted, corrupt mafioso godfather mob boss with a phony real estate university, and a phony charity for tax write offs... is god's chosen one, who gives big enough of a damn about US average pee-ons that he would solve all of their self-inflicted problems.
They refuse to watch the House public hearings with sworn testimonies from WH staff and people from within tRump's own inner circle.
Thank you for stepping up to the plate to let hard working folks know that they are all being played for fools, not by the US government, as a whole, but by tRump's 'loyalists', including every single Congressional Republican that gave their don the infamous 'embrace of loyalty' to their godfather, while also betraying their oath to serve our nation.
Once in the mob, there's no getting out without the godfather's vengeance. That's why they're clambering all over each other to kiss his ring, lying to the world to keep his sorry corrupt ass out of prison.
I witnessed it throughout both impeachments and now, with tRump funding 'loyalist' challengers against midterm incumbents.
tRump always stabs his 'loyalists' in the back after he's finished using them.
Just look at what he tried to do to his own VP.

Thank you for sharing. You have pretty accurately described my life, from teen to 72 year old fart, living as a hermit (vaping while watching).
Like you I've always made a point of being functional at work, etc. 🙄
Family members are religious, so I'm the rejected 'black sheep'.
I've lived with 10 women, even married 2. Every one of them had the same problem..... me. Before I realized, all were either married or had hysterectomy. So, I have no children of my own (that I know of).
Oh F'ing well. "It is what it is, isn't it?" Soon, no one will remember I've existed.
C'est la vie. May as well have another hit, right?
Glad that you're recovering, while you're still young, with a family.
That's what is most important to those of us who have no one.
Give them a big hug for me. I've forgotten what it feels like.

Whether the House GQP elects McCarthy for SotH is 100% dependent upon the 'don's' endorsement tomorrow. Once he announces his position, they are too frozen with fear to defy his wishes.
I'm seriously doubtful that tRump would endorse Cavin' McCarthy, the weasel, instead of a strong leader, capable of standing up to MTG's Q-nut Freedom Caucus.
On the other hand, would tRump deliberately throw the saboteur into the conspirators' midst by endorsing MTG, who claims to be his #1 pick for a 2024 running mate? She's a loudmouthed, overly cocky, disruptive member of the House and a tRumptarded 'loyalist' traitor, which is exactly the sort of disrupter that tRump wants to empower... to appease Putin.
Then, there's also Gym Jordan, the most aggressive, grandstanding badger of the House...

HELLO~OO!! For decades, Congressional Dems have been pushing for Comprehensive Immigration Reform. Republicans across the aisle want to campaign on the issue, instead of compromising on a solution.
For 6 years tRump and his Republicans have been publically outcrying that our border is broken and that Dems want an open border.
Biden gets elected:
Immigrants say, "Hear that, Amigo'? The US border is open now, so let's go!"
MSM says, "OMG, 6k per day, Biden's policies aren't working!"
Viewers say, "Is that so?"
Biden's approval ratings drop.
Chuck says, "OMG, Dems are in trouble!"
WTF !? Why can't anyone else connect the dots between cause and effect?
Republicans have not only been exploiting the problem, but deliberately exacerbating it as well. The problem is Republicants. The solution is a filibuster-proof Dem Congressional majority.
VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO!!

@ThinRedLine_Matt "Under (R) candidate's term"
Nice cherry picking.
But 'candidates' don't serve terms. Your points were accomplished under Dem terms IN OFFICE, most of which have been under the current Biden/Harris administration, unless you can provide legit sources to the contrary.
Who handed W balanced budget?
Who was reading nursery stories, while we were under al Qaeda's attack, after being forewarned?
Who launched 'Shock & Awe' against Iraq, based upon lies of WMDs?
Who was asleep at the wheel when Wall Street hedge fund managers threatened the global economy? Who had to abandon their 2008 campaigns to bail them out?
Who stopped families from losing their homes over extreme medical bills, which insurance companies refused to pay over 'preconditions'?
Who said, "Let the auto industry fail." and who saved it with government loans, which have been repaid in full, with interest? Now, our auto workers are still employed and that industry is thriving, isn't it?
Who handed tRump a healthy, growing economy? Why did he add $7T to our national debt, $2T of which was tax loopholes for the filthy rich?
Whose decades' worth if 'trickledown' economics BS only left average US citizens 'tinkled upon', w/o any benefit and 28T in national debt of which tRump's policies added 25% on top?
Where do you get your information, Faux Spews? I get mine from witnessing reality.
No matter how you slice and dice BS, it still stinks.
tRump is a traitor, who tried to overthrow our election, as the entire world witnessed in horror. That is undeniable and why he is currently on trial in Judge Chutkan's DC courtroom.
He stole thousands of top secret nuclear defense docs from the National Archives and with Waltine Nauta's assistance, uploaded them onto a cloud drive to sell then share with our enemies on the global black market. But the radical right wing SCOTUS and Eileen Cannon are protecting him from those indictments, which include espionage... for now.
Those trials are on top of his 34 convictions over concealing his whoremongering from voters. Plus, he still owes ~1/2 Billion over repeated defamation of E Gene King, and is banned from doing business in NY, not to mention fines over being convicted of charity and tRump University frauds.
Mafioso don, the 2-bit con is going down hard... as in hard time in prison, while taking the GQP and MAGA with him.
Good riddance.
Sorry, what was your point, again red MAGA Matt, the phony "I", who spews Faux BS, trying to take credit for Dem admin accomplishments?
Do you even call yourself a respectable US citizen, who is prepared to defend our democracy?

@t.r.campbell6585 Clearly you don't have a clue about how rich and privileged individuals are educated. They are wealthy enough to attend ivy league universities, paid for by mommy and daddy, NOT by borrowing student loans from the government. That would be beneath their privileged dignity.
Furthermore, they inherit mommy and daddy's spare homes for free without even paying inheritance taxes and never need car loans for their Ferraris
Average teenagers are kicked out of their homes to fend for themselves, work multiple jobs to pay for a car, rent (no down payment), and starting a family from scratch.
Other nations provide education and healthcare for ALL of their citizens. So, there's no excuse for the wealthiest nation in the world not doing the same for US citizens. Why are we so undeserving? Why are we $32T in debt? Why are billionaires taking joyrides into space on the backs of those of who they exploit?
There is nothing fair about your sense of fair justice.
SCOTUS is the judicial branch of government, NOT the legislative. SCOTUS is unconstitutionally legislating from their bench. But, Republicans care less about following the law than weaponizing it on behalf of your beloved rich and privileged, of whom you don't even know.

@putinscat1208 That makes absolutely no logical sense. Who are 'they'?
FYI, educational grants are dependent upon good grade averages for eligibility to begin with.
SCOTUS has only blocked $10,000 worth of student loan debts, for intelligent, hard working, young US citizens to help them break out of generational poverty, not 100% of their educational costs.
SCOTUS is NOT a legislative branch of government and don't have the authority to repeal Executive Orders.
Why shouldn't average US kids have the same educational opportunities as privileged rich kids, who have life served to them on silver platters?
Look it, from a sociological POV. Then government can either educate its youth or incarcerate them for illegally surviving on the streets from prostitution, drug dealing, or breaking into your house.
Give kids a reasonable alternative with higher education job skills and they will take the most respectable path to live and raise their children.

🤯This has got to be the interview of the year, if not this decade! NOW, we can look into the eyes of the very man to whom the previous inept administration gave the responsibility of serving up Afghanistan to the Taliban on a bloody platter.
Congratulations, to Margaret for holding his feet to the fire by making him answer all the right questions. Watch how he squirms and grins at the thought of Afghan girls being abused and denied from gaining their education and making their own choices for the rest of their lives. "Well, it's just a different point of view," the monster makes his inhumane excuses for Shariah laws
At least, he lays out an accurate account of Biden's evacuation mission, blaming the panic-crazed Afghan civilians for that horrible airport scene, being constantly replayed on an endless loop.
Also, he points out that this administration succeeded in negotiating the Taliban's cooperation to provide a security perimeter around the airport to control the crowds, instead of escalating the war with more deaths and destruction, extending the madness for who knows how much longer?
This is also the first I've heard about the suicide bomber being one of the 5000 terrorist prisoners that tRump had released.
This 'ambassador' also confirmed that the withdrawal was inevitably going to be messy regardless of who was managing it and that Biden pulled it off as well as anyone could reasonably expect.
Now that we have the ME's economic monkey off our backs, we are free to move forward into a better future, addressing our own neglected problems.
Well done, President Biden!

Nope. Sorry, but you've got it bas ackwards. tRump's radical right wing authoritarian rhetoric lead many of those European countries to the right. President Biden is leading them back to a stronger, more unified left leaning NATO, UN, and EU.
tRumpism and radical right wing Q-nuts have already hijacked the GOP into the corrupt GQP seditious conspirators. It is only still going through its death throws, while they destroy it with infighting and power games.
President Biden is leading US through the pandemic, shutdowns, supply chain disruptions, and inflation to a more prosperous, independent, and sustainable future.
Thanks to this administration, We the People of the USA are better off than most other developed nations.
Stop your whining, fearmongering, and parroting Faux Spews' predictions of doom and gloom.

Bloomberg doesn't need anyone else's money. Real multi-billionaires on that level are motivated by legacy, not greed for yet another dollar. But, I doubt that you would have the slightest understanding of such endeavors. Furthermore, he has a long track record of being a self made multi-billionaire, public servant, and philanthropist (google it).
WTF are you talking about? Yang has no track record of public service and has never even held a political office. So, where did he acquire the on-the-job credibility you claim? But, he knows how to throw a good party. So, he's your joke, arriving from nowhere, here today, and gone tomorrow.

Every one of Gingrinch's points about Walker are deal breakers for me.
tRump has hijacked the GOP and corrupted it to the point of having no moral compass, no integrity, and no policies, except to serve their chosen orange Jesus about our country.
They are nothing more than a disgraceful cult of lying, cheating, anarchists, extreme right-wing white supremacists, and authoritarians, who want to take away our rights, especially women's.
There is no more left vs right; only democracy vs fascism; justice vs corruption; USA vs tRumptarded traitors.
"Is there any bottom to the Republican party?" Good question.
Does a sewer have a bottom? Are there any turds lower than tRump, MTG, Cruz, Boebert. Gosar, DeSantis, Masters, Hawley, Jordan, ...?

@cliftonfameree4436 You will believe whatever you want to believe. So will I. But, I don't believe anything from this administration. So many lies have been debunked that Trump only brings shame on our nation, within and abroad. It's all about Trump's messaging over that of the FBI, CIA, Justice dept, Congress, free press, and anyone else who reports on his shenanigans. "Believe Trump's BS over your own lying eyes." Right?
Those are the tactics of fascist dictators, not that of a leader of the free nation, with Constitutional checks and balances. Respectable Presidents don't divide a country's citizens against each other, along political, racial, religious, and economic lines.
Trump's days as a President and a free man are numbered. He is going down hard, because even rich assholes are not above the law. After the election, his diminishing mob of white 'supremacist' supporters will slither back under their rocks, where they belong.
But, go ahead and vote for the POS, if you must.

@joeblow8750 Fake news, right? Trump supporters consistently amaze me at their gullibility, ignorance (one who ignores), and acceptance of Trump's lies.
Facts are that he was born with a sliver spoon in his mouth, was spoiled as a child ($125,000 per month allowance), feigned having bone spurs to dodge serving our country in the military, blew millions of dollars living a playboy's lifestyle, borrowed huge sums of money from foreign banks to fund his extravagant over budget construction schemes (while bankrupting his contractors by refusing to pay for their services), filed bankruptcy on numerous occasions (until American banks stopped lending him money), cheated on his taxes, and accepted foreign collusion and funding to become POTUS (he has always been a POS).
Since then, Trump has blown a hole through our national budget (> $1T deficit), made every effort to discredit and vilify anyone who opposes him, and has consistently fermented hatred within our nation with daily doses of lies and misinformation (now we have to worry about home-grown terrorists, who call themselves patriotic). Our international allies no longer trust US, the cold war with Russia is back on, Iran is testing missiles and enriching uranium again, N Korea is testing guided missile systems again, and now we are in the midst of a trade war with China (who provides US with inexpensive goods).
Yet, even blue collar workers and Christians actually believe this narcissistic, self-proclaimed messiah is on their side, even as he gives huge tax breaks to the top 10% (who invested that windfall straight into the stock market, instead of their employees, causing inflated stock values). This is not trickle down economics. It's called tinkle on economics.
Trump's reckless kowtowing to his financiers is destroying our country on every level (I would discuss his policies regarding climate change, but that would take up another chapter). His house of cards is on the verge of collapsing.
Trump is out of touch with reality. Even now, he demonstrates delusional aspirations and desperate attempts to assure his base that all is well in Trumpland. He deserves every bit of the inevitable wrath from the American voters, of whom he has deceived, in 2020.

kissmyaass1 Antifa, eh? Never heard of them, but looked it up on Wikipedia, for the benefit of others: "The antifa (/ænˈtiːfə, ˈæntiˌfɑː/) movement is composed of left-wing, autonomous, militant anti-fascist groups and individuals in the United States. The principal feature of antifa groups is their use of direct action, with conflicts occurring both online and in real life."
This is simply the universal Law of Yin and Yang, equally opposing forces, one counter-balancing the other. Indeed, they create each other and only exist to oppose each other.

@constantinshim4271 According to BLS charts, the employment rate has risen at a steady rate since Bush's economic crash in 2010, the same year Obama saved our collapsing auto industry and Wall Street. Trump is killing our agricultural industry with tariffs and destroying natural habitat with deregulation. Chinese goods will no longer be cheap, which will hurt the low income families the most.
Trump only lowered taxes on the top 2% (who simply invested the savings into the stock market, causing a temporary bubble that's about to burst). Trump has increased government spending based upon budget projections of a 3.5% fairy tale growth rate. The national debt has increased from $800 Billion to over 1.2 Trillion, annually. You shouldn't mention Trump's inhumane treatment of immigrants and their children. Yes, Obama deported more criminals, but did it with more compassion.
Basically, Trump's reputation is one of a spoiled child, who has foolishly lost virtually unlimited wealth on grandiose schemes to support his narcissism. After 9 bankruptcies, American banks won't do business with him, so he turned to shady foreign sources.
Trump has insulted and removed support from our allies while praising and encouraging fascist dictators. N Korea and Iran are testing guided missiles. Since Trump has torn up NAT, Russia is developing a new nuclear powered hyper-sonic missile. So, the nuclear arms race is back on. Trump wants to remove sanctions from Russia over its invasion of the Ukraine (a NATO country) and even allow it back into the G8.
Trump has proven himself to be an idiot. Only idiots support him.

"Say what you mean, mean what you say, but don't say it mean."
A hermit's lesson to take to heart. Thank you, Jamie. I needed that.
For the past 10 years, I've been a mean spirited keyboard warrior against MAGA's trolls of disinformation, with a hyper sensitive BS meter, not caring of whom is offended.
Now, I'm not only done with this misguided society, but especially done with politics.

Let me get this straight:
don, the godfather con, became the orange Jesus and dubbed Ron, the con, as the Sanctimonious one.
So, now the Sanctimonious con, Ron, is writing his own biblical scripture to create another 8th day in a week, so that his god could add The Divine Fighter to make a threesome in the Garden of Eden? Kinky, Conman!
Of course, Sanctimonious Ron, the con. must be the reincarnation of The Divine Fighter, whose god appointed mission is to slay his rivals, including tRump, with god's sword of.... BS?
But, as We the People already know, tRump won't even notice a little more BS.
Can I buy tickets on line or do I have to kiss someone's ass, first?

@liberalismisaids9564 "Transitory"? You're planning on deleting them?
Your cheap shots do nothing for the integrity of our POTUS and nation, while he is negotiating with our allies.
What was gained by the decades worth of unprovoked Middle East 'shock and awe' wars that Pappy and W Bush started to control Muslim oil reserves?
Several Trillions of dollars + thousands of dead US troops for naught.
Hussein had no WMDs.
Bush let Bin Laden slip away at Tora Bora, then scapegoated our Taliban allies, who had helped track him down, and started another unjustified 20 year war of revenge in Afghanistan, killing hundreds of thousands of innocent people.
Obama located Bin Laden, living comfortably with his family, sent in Seal Team 6 and took him out, w/o losing one member.
While under impeachment, knowing 6 months ahead of the 2020 election, that he would lose, tRump secretly negotiated with the Taliban enemies to take their country back, without firing a shot, as soon as our troops withdrew, UNDER BIDEN'S WATCH to take the political hit of vengeance.

@Kari.F. Garland's job is being the head of the Department of Justice, whose responsibility is apprehending and holding criminal felons accountable.
But, Garland cowered from that responsibility, even after the House Select Committee did the investigations, hundreds of interviews, and 3 televised public hearings, including testimonies that revealed overwhelming evidence of tRump's attempted coups, fraudits, failed court cases, and fake elector conspiracies.
Yet, meek Garland failed to prosecute mafioso don the 2-bit con, until AFTER his Q-nut 'loyalists' took control of our House, 2 F'iNG YEARS LATER and tRump announced his intentions to run for POTUS immediately afterwards.
EVEN THEN, Garland passed the hot potato to Jack Smith to pursue, instead of jeopardizing his own family.
ALL of the current dysfunction in the House, Gym Jordan's shit show committees investigating Q-nut conspiracies against Hunter, threats to not pay Congress' own bills by raising the debt ceiling, jeopardizing our national security by obstructing Military appointments, defunding Ukraine's war against Putin's invasion, and blocking climate change mitigation is because Garland didn't take down the tRump family mob, prior to the 2020 midterms.
TRUMP IS A TRAITOR!!
GARLAND HAS BEEN NOTHING MORE THAN THE TRAITOR'S ENABLER TO DESTROY OUR DEMOCRACY.

Cry me a river, after your traitor didn't even have a primary election.
Biden has already saved our democracy (lower case, BTW) after your BS orange 'chosen one' killed 400,000 of his own MAGA supporters, had to be forced out of office after inciting the Capitol riot to cheat US out of our fair 2020 election (currently on trial), left US shutdown, kids out of school, mass unemployment, our economy in freefall, and on our knees.
Thanks to the excellent, mindful, effective leadership of the Biden/Harris administration, our lives have already been restored with the strongest economic growth in history, the lowest unemployment, continuous stock market records, and corporate jobs returning from overseas.
We don't need to imagine your dystopian BS because we have just recovered from living through it.
WE'RE NOT GOING BACK!!

@webportal6659 That's a lie!
While being impeached, during the spring of 2020, tRump knew full well that he would lose the election.
Out of sheer vengeance, tRump betrayed 20 years' worth of our $Trillions spent, thousands of troops' blood, sweat, and families' tears by promising the Taliban that they could have Afghanistan back, under Biden's term, if they simply didn't attack US troops before the 2020 election. Then he started drawing down the remaining troops to 2500.
tRump knew the withdrawal would be messy and scheduled it to happen under Biden's watch. Our troops slipped out of Bagram airbase in the middle of the night, without locals even knowing, until they discovered an abandoned base the following morning.
tRump had no plans to protect our Afghan contractors nor Western civilians from beheadings. But, Biden ordered our military to establish an evacuation operation at Karzai Airport, which was logistically advantageous.
Only Afghans knew about the Taliban's planned return to power and panicked, jumped the perimeter wall, and flooded onto the runway, chasing after a taxiing cargo plane. One unpredictable moment, immediately remedied, but still single news clip, looped constantly on every broadcast for over 2 years.
Yes, one suicide bomber managed to slip past the Taliban's security perimeter and 13 US troops were killed, along with hundreds of civilians.
Those troops were forewarned of the imminent threat, but bravely stood their posts to allow a British troop escorted group of civilians inside.
STOP THE BS!

<ring-ring> Hello, Vlad. It's the don, here. Hope your invasion is going well. Shame about your ships. But, I've got a hell of a deal for you.
I only need a small favor, first. They're fining me at levels the world has never seen in history. So, I just need you to cosign another loan for,,, uh $300 mil. Second thought, let's just make it an even 1/2 Billion, considering everything else that's going on, apart from my campaign expenses and everything else. Those poor Evangelical suckers are running out of money, you know.
When I'm elected in November, I'll give you Ukraine, just like I gave Afghanistan back to the Taliban. Okay?
Send my love to Xi and Kim, okay? But don't tell anyone, because it wouldn't be good for my campaign.

@Epiphda1 This is exactly why I don't travel down your path. First, it's religious fairy tales, then Trump's propaganda and deep state conspiracy theories. You're been gobbling up so much BS that you don't know what to believe nor whom to trust. That's exactly where Putin wants you to be. I'm an American citizen and no one's puppet. The Hermit doesn't even have any strings. For the sake of our nation, I want this BS to stop and get back to a nation that I can be proud of... Yes, like when No-Drama Obama put us back on track. Like he said, "Republicans don't know how to drive."
But, I will never change your devious thought processes, so this conversation can only go downhill from this point.
Trumptards always resort to deflections and verbal abuse, just like their god.
So, I'll bid you farewell, while I'm still in a civil mood.

@Epiphda1 I don't need the MSM to tell me what to think. I only need to listen to Trump's BS for a few minutes to understand that he is a con man and an idiot. That has nothing to do with Obama, Hillary, the DNC, as Trumptards always deflect to.
Talk to me about Trump's mafioso behavior, his deathgrip on Congressional Republicans, his spoiled childhood, irresponsible adolescence, bone spurs, multiple bankruptcies, Russian secured Deutsche Bank loans, money laundering, income tax evasion, Trump University con, Trump Foundation charity fraud, etc, etc.
No, you want to ignore all of that, while calling attentive people ignorant.

Urban is just as full of BS denialism as the rest of the right wing pundits.
NO Dems support tRump/Vance.
Harris has been CA's AG, Senator and VP, with more political experience than any others over decades. Yes, Walz is relatively unknown, but very likable.
Their campaign is less than one month old, yet they are already leading in most polls.
tRump is now a 34 count convicted felon of fraud over concealing his whoremongering from voters. Chutkan's case has only just begun to take down Mafioso don, the 2-bit con, and she's not letting this election get in her way.
The October surprise of Liz Cheney's righteous campaigning with Harris, plus the endorsements of over 100 reputable staunch Republicans and military leaders, including those who served from within tRump's administration is the decisive tipping point for an overwhelming Harris/Walz win, without any doubts.
Meanwhile these pundits only continue to spin their usual, 'Blah, blah, blah" that nobody knows what is already inevitable.

@Dick Tater IOW, only Democrats are patriotic enough to defend our nation? Yes, except for Cheney and Kinzinger, the GQP are treasonous cowards, afraid of their don's vengeance.
Apparently you don't understand the difference between Democrats and democracy. FYI, the upper case 'D' indicates the political party. The lower case 'd' indicates a political system, whereby the people choose their leadership, not wannabe dictators who refuse to leave office.
Likewise, there's a difference between the Republican political party and a republic that is governed by representatives for the people.
The USA is a democratic republic. Voters choose our leaders to represent us in governing.
But, since tRump hijacked the GOP, they have metastasized into the GQP cult of anarchists and obstructionists.
Spew whatever you like about the Dems, but at least they are not tRumptarded traitors, attempting to destroy our government. They're lower that a whale's turd and unfit to serve in the Congress of the USA.

@dragonfly6908 That's not what the Fed reports. First of all, most of the stimulus check $ will flow straight from the hands of families into paying for house payments, rent, overdue utilities, & living expenses. IOW, it get injected back into the economy, keeping businesses running and paychecks flowing. It will trickle up the supply chain and kick start the economy. According to the FED, GDP will skyrocket from -2% (now) to +6% (this year).
Trump gave $2T to the top 2%, who only invested into Wall Street, which is why stocks are high. Trump claimed that the loss of revenue would pay for itself with a GDP of 3.5%. It as only declined from 2.5% to 2%. IOW, Trump was full of BS.
Biden's $1.9T stimulus helps workers. Then, I expect Biden to pay for it by taking back Trump's $2T tax break to the rich.

Hello~o! You people think Trump's tweet is a joke?! Trump is an out of control mob boss, who has thumbed his nose at our Constitution and Congressional oversight. He literally believes that he is above the law and has demonstrated an absolute stranglehold over the Republican party. Trump gives everyone gangsta nicknames and brutally punishes anyone who opposes him.
All along and at this very minute, Trump's self-appointed Cabinet (mob) of henchmen are plotting a coup upon our nation. Trump has already suggested the elimination of term limits (blatantly illustrated in his tweet) and has his heirs poised to inherit his crown and kingdom, aka USA. If re-elected, Trump will become our 1st dictator or, as he imagines, King of the World.
Every day, the MSM provide Trump with 24/7 free publicity by broadcasting his propaganda. This is why only a media mogul, like Mike Bloomberg, is capable of defeating Trump with millions of dollars worth of counter messaging ads. IMO, Mike Bloomberg is our only hope of saving our democratic republic against Trump's tyranny.
Mike Bloomberg is a true patriot, literally spending a fortune out of his own pocket to save our nation from a lying, cheating, corrupt traitor.
BTW, Bloomberg's anti-Trump ads will run up until the November election, even if he is not the Dem's nominee. IOW, they benefit all Dem candidates. How generous is that? Furthermore, Bloomberg only entered the race because none of the field has a chance of defeating Trump. Even after giving others a 3 month head start and 4 state handicap, Bloomberg's poll numbers are skyrocketing.
Please support our nation's only hope for survival.🙏

The 'godfather' summoned all of the Congressional Republicans into the Oval Office as soon as he arrived. Trump understands that 'every man has his price' and has the resources to pay it. Obviously, he gave them 'an offer they couldn't refuse'. His 'embrace' sealed their oath of allegiance to him, above party and nation. That's why he has absolute control over the Senate and House Republicans. Woe to anyone who breaks their vow by not holding the Trump Party line. Yes, I said Trump Party because now he owns the Republicans.
This is the only possible explanation for their shameless behavior throughout the impeachment proceedings. One by one, Collins and others went to ridiculous lengths to deny indisputable testimonies from multiple reputable witnesses, blow distracting smoke screens, and spew outrageous lies in defense of Trump. No respectable person would stoop that low, without coercion. How is it possible that not one Republiturd could muster the moral backbone to vote 'yes', while being aware of this administration's corruption?
Furthermore, McConnell's public statement that he would follow the White House counsel's guidance and that there is 0 chance of impeachment passing the Senate is complicate, illegal, and unconstitutional, because it violates the separation of powers and oversight over the Executive branch.
Under the circumstances, Pelosi has no choice but to withdraw the articles.
Republican states have already cancelled their primaries, so Trump won't be challenged from within 'his' own party. After the backlash of a failed impeachment, Trump will undoubtedly win the election against the DNC's weak field of candidates, Dems will obviously lose the House and a vindicated Trump will be unstoppable.
Within only 4 years, Trump and his motley mob of Cabinet henchmen will have successfully conducted a coup (which he deliberately projects onto Dems) against our nation, without firing a shot. He has already discredited the MSM (as all dictators do), floated ending term limits (testing his opposition, as he often does prior to commitment) and is poised to become America's first dictator. Of course, his ego would prefer the title of 'King of the World.' Then, his heirs in waiting could inherit his 'kingdom'. Meanwhile he can join his coveted club of world dictators, such as Putin, Kim, King Salman, and others. All of this fits Trump's MO and explains his behavior on the international stage, doesn't it?
You think I'm crazy? Who's gonna stop him, now that he's already over half way there? Trump's only check on power is the Dem controlled House and they have already failed, simply because everyone dismissed it as only hyper-partisan politics from the left, instead of blatant corruption on the right. 😒
OORR.......
3 term NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg gallops into the race on his mighty white warhorse, wearing an impenetrable shiny silver coat of arms, wielding his huge sword of unlimited campaign funds. Unencumbered with petty DNC bickering, MSM sidelining, nor partisan politics Bloomberg easily thrashes Trump next year.
The DNC is forced to rally behind him, along with bipartisan voters. So, Dems gain the Senate majority and hold the House. Relieved Republicans can stop holding their noses and support Bloomberg's monetary policies. Washington DC and our nation reunites.
Trump and his mob go to prison, where they belong.
International relationships are restored, America returns to the Paris Climate accord, our economy stabilizes with a balanced budget and national pride returns.👏🤩🥳
The choice is yours, America.😎

SOS notorious MO of the Mafioso godfather. His 1st act when he stepped foot in the Oval Office in 2017 was to summon every Republican to pledge their absolute personal loyalty to their 'don', sealed by his infamous embrace. During that moment, they also betrayed their oaths of office to serve their constituents, our nation, and uphold Constitutional law.
Once in the mob, there's no getting out without being destroyed by the godfather's ruthless vengeance, aka 'retribution'.
That's why every Republican Senator lied, deflected and, distracted to defend their don on national TV to let him off the hook, during both impeachment trials.
That's why the GQP is unable to govern, because trump doesn't want them to. The loyalist Q-nuts have 0 experience in governing and only intend to sabotage Biden's administration to appease their godfather.
Gym Jordan's committees have done nothing more than to chase conspiracies to implicate President Biden with Hunter's business dealings to justify his impeachment.... for tRump's Presidential pardons for being his seditious conspirators.

There's never enough for some folks. If Biden had put both bills into one huge spending package, Mitch, the Grim Reaper of bills would have gutted out all of the progressive items, only leaving behind a carcass to fight over. President Biden has seen it all before. He knew to set a high price tag, because it would get whittled down by the Conservatives. Now they can brag to their constituencies about how they've defended their principles, why President Biden will enjoy getting nearly everything he wanted, to begin with. The man worked in Congress for over 3 decades, ffs. He and Nancy understand the game of political hard ball better than anyone.
Thanks to Biden's brilliance, this portion was only approved, with the bipartisan support of 13 House Republicans who were brave enough to buck their party's line, in spite of the few Dems (like you) who refused to vote for it because it wasn't progressive enough without the human infrastructure bill being passed first.
IMO, there are too many DINOs and ideologs in the Dem party, who refuse to see beyond their personal agendas in order to achieve the possible, instead of demanding the impossible.

@lynnmarie2962 IMO, that's EXACTLY why mafioso don, the con, stole those thousands of top secret nuclear defense classified docs and had Nauta store copies onto a cloud server for sell to the highest bidders on the global black market.
tRump would download copies to appraise, then put them into the 'sold' boxes that he initially turned over.
But, he wanted to hold back the rest, before the FBI's 'raid'.
Now, Jack Smith is on the don's ass like flies on a POS.
Why did MBS pay Jared $2Billion for the blood of Khasoggi?
People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
tRumptarded traitors shouldn't bad mouth our POTUS during his excellent efforts of delicate global diplomacy on our behalf.
Let's talk about tRump selling out our troops in Afghanistan to the Taliban, scheduled after Biden would be in office, while the corrupt don was being impeached, tRumptard.
TRUMP'S A TRAITOR!!
LET'S GO JACK!!

Bloomberg hired a company, not prisoners. Then, he immediately fired the company as soon as he became aware of their practice. He never intended to exploit prisoners. PERIOD, end of story.
Bloomberg is not willing to dig up dirt against his Dem rivals and is running on his own merits, even after giving them a head start. How much more honorable could he be than that?🤯
Trump and Bloomberg are entirely different people, with different motivations.Trump is an self-serving ego-maniacal mob boss, who is trying to become King of the World with his heirs waiting to inherit 'his' kingdom.
Bloomberg has a long proven track record of public service and philanthropy (google it). He spends his money on curing diseases, fighting 3rd world poverty, and climate change. In fact, he is putting up America's shortfall ($5 Million) of the Paris Climate Accord, no thanks to Trump.
Bloomberg doesn't need more money. He already has more than he could ever spend on himself. His goal is to leave behind a legacy of making the world a better place.

Bloomberg oversaw the collapse of Wall Street during his third term. Then, changed his mind about the 3 term policy and put it back into place. He also admitted to his mistake of 'Stop & Frisk' and stopped that practice. I don't believe that he 'directly sanctioned the NYPD's brutality against minorities, although I'm sure that it happened just like everywhere else.
Everyone makes mistakes, with all of the right intentions. What's most important is that they admit to their own mistakes, correct them as much as possible, then move on to create a better world. Bloomberg has that sort of introspective adaptability.
IMO, a vote against Bloomberg is no different to a vote for Trump, because the DNC/MSM has become so corrupt that they are willing to eat their only viable candidates. Obama has already indicated that he won't allow Bernie to be nominated. Tulsi has already been sidelined. Yang has no track record of public service and his campaign is solely based upon UBI (bribing voters). He's here today and will be gone tomorrow, after his parties are over. Warren is losing popularity. So, who remains to defeat Trump and stop his attempted coup to become 'King of the World'? There's your greedy, tricky nepotism, Pal.
'The LOVE of money is the root of all evil' not the possession of hard earned money.

"What we have here, is a failure to communicate."
Jon and Ms Hicks talking past each other. Because Jon is in attack mode, while Hick is in Dept of Defense mode.
The fact is, advanced new technology ALWAYS goes over budget, because it is literally new and has never been develooped in order to know the costs involved.
Congress approves the budget for the DoD and their contractors spend whatever they need to supply the goods.
But, who is auditing the DoD's unexpected costs for waging their wars? Let's not forget about that.
Meanwhile, over the past 1/2 century, China has been funding their vast military industrial complex with US consumers' spending on their electronics gadgets. We have been paying for our own demise, until Taiwan has become our Achilles heel and China's leverage point for control.
Is this a time to reduce US military spending, after depleting our stockpile, while China has demonstrated hypersonic missiles, of which we are defenseless? Why are we 'poking the dragon' along it's territorial shorelines and airspace, as well as blatantly selling Taiwan our most advanced fighter jets?

My preferred "safe setting" for doing psychedelic's has always been surrounded by nature and as far away from law enforcement as possible.
Some of the most enjoyable, insightful experiences of my life, TBH. Skydiving was also exciting, sex was emotionally rewarding, and laser art is pretty cool too, @ 70 years old. But I digress...
I'd love to try DMA and/or ayahuasca in a safe setting. I'd definitely do LSD again. Nowadays, seems like everything is laced with fentanyl. Cocaine was overpriced and over rated. Speed was intensely productive, before it became lethal meth
I also enjoyed mushrooms, until I eventually came to the conclusion that, yes, it is possible to poison one's brain into a blissful state of delirium. Good in moderation, IMO.
Mostly been a life-long pot head and occasional wine/ Tequila & OJ drinker, because I hate the taste of beer.
Alas now, I barely get a buzz from 90% THC concentrate, can't remember my last head rush, and wake up to Kahlua in my morning coffee to start my days.
No problems, no complaints....well, except for the fact that one pack of legal Camel Turkish Jade cigarettes triggered rheumatoid arthritis 20 years ago, so I've had 5 joint replacements. 😎

Texas Outlaw What lashing out? I'm simply telling it as it is. Tried to explain that Trump is corrupt, but you ignore whatever I say, so what's the point? If you really wanted to know about Trump, you could have payed attention for the past 3 years. Every day, there's something. He can string a sentence together, lashes out at anyone who disagrees with him, is an embarrassment on the International stage, denies climate change, panders to the fossil fuel industry instead of promoting sustainable clean energy. For the past 3 months, Trump has been tweeting, watching the polls, and focused upon his campaigning, instead of paying attention to China's COVID-19 outbreak. He deliberately delayed, downplayed the severity, and still bullshits the nation, just to avoid disrupting his campaign and the stock market. I'd bet anything that he started divesting and has been buying shorts, to cash in on the crisis. "Back to work by Easter?" What do you call that?

I'm not voting for ANY Pennsylvanian candidates, because I don't live in Pennsylvania.
But, to answer your question, if I haven't already, there is NO more left vs right politics anymore, because there is no longer a Republican party of law and order.
There is only tRump's loyalist GQP cult of anarchists and traitors vs Dems, who are bravely risking their lives to uphold our nation's Constitutional rights and laws.
Don't bother me by replying with your ignorant tRumptarded questions. I'm not here to tutor the willfully ignorant and refuse to give tRumptarded traitors the time of day.
Just piss off and leave me alone, unless you want one of your beloved chosen one's golden showers.

Some call it the 'Freedom Dividend'. Now, it's called the 'UBI". No matter how you slice and dice it, I call it 'voter bribery.'
Sure, who couldn't use another $1000 per month? But, how is it funded? YOUR TAX $! Oh, so it is billionaires' tax $? So, they are taxed $1000 just to pay their own UBI, plus enough to cover everyone else, right? So, Yang is the modern day Robin Hood, taking from the rich to give to the poor?
Trump and his Repug cronies will love to campaign against that platform! Feeds straight into the 'socialist dependency' narrative.
This is a platform that directly caters to greed and placing one's selfish motivations above ensuring that our elections are not corrupt. The popularity of this proposal only demonstrates how far our standards have fallen, considering the high expectations of our founding fathers.
Apart from this issue, Andrew Yang is very sharp, tech savvy, fun, and flies by the seat of his pants pretty well. I see no malice. He could be a refreshing public servant, if that truly is his long term goal. So, I wish him the best of luck.

@Peter-yc2uh Without full disclosure, readers have no way of knowing that the POV being expressed is not an American voter. So, that would be unethical, IMO.
As I said, I welcome and respect the views of foreigners, because they provide a broader POV, based upon older cultures and social structures. But, if I'm having a political debate with someone, I want to know whether I'm addressing a fellow US voter, someone accustomed to living under a dictatorship, or a European ally.
Why would full disclosure be a problem? Most people introduce themselves properly out of common courtesy.

@Peter-yc2uh Yeah, we're getting down to the wire. Over the next few weeks, COVID will be running rampant throughout our schools, churches, and Trump's superspreader rallies. Within a few weeks, innocent children, evangelicals, and Trump's own supporters will start dropping like flies. As Trump watches his 'Executive Privilege' slipping away, he will become more desperate and cheat anyway he can. Fortunately, Pelosi and Schiff are all over him and he's not a very clever con man, to anyone who isn't ignorant.
Then, there's all the anarchists and right wing gangs running around with assault rifles and molotov cocktails, all itching for a civil war. Then, there's Barr's personal militia of anonymous, multi agency stormtroopers, primed to defend Trump. Every riot is their on the job training. 🤮
I'm in it for the long term, Pete, until I see Trump and his mob behind bars.🥳

@WhoCaresNone I didn't know. Thank you for informing me.
Rush to hate?
What comes around, goes around.
Over the past 8 years, I've heard tRump spewing hate against Dem voters, Muslims, immigrants, MSM and his political rivals, including Republicans, at every opportunity; "Crooked Hillary, Crazy Bernie, Lyin' Ted (insulted his wife), Rin De Sanctimonious li'l Marco" On and on, with gangsta style nicknames. Yet, MAGA laughs and the Republicans he insults and the entire party cowers to kiss his ass at Mar-a-Lago, where he invites dictators and stashed thousands of stolen nuclear defense docs to sell of the global black market (charged with espionage).
I see MAGA trolls swarming like hornets under every WH press briefing, spewing ruthless personal attacks upon the beautiful, respectfully patient, polite Karine Jean Pierre. MAGA trolls attack our fairly elected POTUS, for their own perverse amusement, in front of the world, completely ignorant of how they are disgracing our nation like domestic enemies, at the pleasure of Putin, Xi, Kim, Iran, and our global enemies.
I could go on and on about how hateful your MAGA cult is against every fellow US citizen, who doesn't worship your orange 'chosen one'.
MAGA can dish out your hate, on behalf of an election denying, convicted felon, who wants to tear up our Constitution, but then you turn into whining snowflakes the moment when REAL patriotic US citizens object to being threatened by civil war.
MAGA, my ass. You're nothing more than a mob of sheeple of blind faith, who want to destroy our great nation while our global allies witness in horror. /smh

Damn straight! Give 'em hell, Jesse! I show absolutely no respect towards butt-hurt, hypocritical, rude, fowl mouthed, tRumptarded traitors, who are deliberately disgracing our nation by swarming the WH press briefings to inflict meanspirited attacks upon Karine Jean-Pierre, for the world to witness.
"What comes around goes around", IMO.
These deplorables are the anthesis of MAGA, patriotic behavior, and the essence of our democracy. They need to be shamed, ridiculed, and understand that they are the lowliest excuses of humanity, pariahs of society, and sociopathic rejects.
"Well, did you accept tRump as your President?" /smh
Why would any respectable US citizen accept a silver-spoon-fed $20K monthly allowance brat, who became a life-long lying, cheating, narcissistic, pussy-grabbing, whoremongering, thin-skinned, corrupt, mafioso godfather, who has never done a day's public service in his sorry-assed life as POTUS?
Yet, there they swarm, like vultures, every week to get their rocks off with shit like, "Let's go Brandon! LOL!" (they always add 'LOL' after their stupid comments, like a global middle finger to our POTUS, but they're only joking.)
Well, it's just like my Paw used to say, he said, "Son, ya gotta fight far with far. Ain't no good takin your bible to a knife fight. Ya gotta git to it, git'r done and over with." Always minded my Paw or he'd whup my butt fer a 'coon's age or 'til the cows came home.
NO, SIR! Sometimes I git so dang riled up that I go full blown Hermit on their sorry asses and let 'em have it with both bores! Dem dang varmits are fair game, in my book, 'specially 'round 'lectioneerin' times. Folks 'round my neck of the woods don't take kindly to tRumptarded traitors and don't mind lettin 'em know about it. I ne'er been known for mincin' my words, neither.
Reckon, that's the biggest problems with dem Dems. The'r just too dang prim and proper to know how to tangle with bone-headed numskulls.
"Some people just need a quick, short, sharp shock. Can ya dig it? I mean good manners don't cost nothing, do they?" That ole Pink Floyd, sure was a fart smeller.
But, he could do with gettin out of the house a little more often for some more sun, I reckon. JS😎

Older, mature people, past their physical prime care more for the well being of younger generations.
It takes ~8 years' worth of University doctorate degrees to understand science, healthcare, engineering, sociology, history, and political science.
So, why would you retire the Congressional leaders of the USA, only 2 years after they've learned how to govern?
Voters need to decide when to replace bad leaders. But, instead they think politics is an entertainment game of popularity and sport, US vs THEM. This is the result of 7 years' worth of tRump's divisive anti-democratic rhetoric, pitting neighbors against neighbors to the verge of threatening civil war.
Our elected leaders are nothing more than a reflection of ourselves, ignorance included. This is why Republicans are burning books and defunding higher education to keep the voters less educated and informed, busy serving tables instead..

Why is Dr Pkil, the right wing shill, even a guest? H is a nobody, so why grant ANOTHER TV CELEBTITY the respect of MSM airtime?
This is why voters are so confused and gullible.
Both-sides-isms are destroying common sense logic.
Misinformation is 'Merica's #2 threat to our republic.
That's another thing. If MAGA doesn't understand the difference between Democrat and democracy, then we are a republic, just so they can't hate US.
Calling America a 'democracy' only riles them up. So, argue to save our republic to keep them confused.
"We are a republic, if we can keep it."
TBH, I say:
#1: eliminate the electoral college, who has already been caught red handed in election fraud and conspiring to obstruct the Congressional peaceful transfer of power.
#2: Eliminate gerrymandering.
#3: Repeal Citizen's United dark $ campaign donations & superPACs.
$3: enact ranked choice elections throughout every state in America to eliminate 3rd prty lection spoilers.
Every voter gets one whole vote, regardless of population.
100% democracy, of the people, by the people, and for the people, just as it should be. Majority rules and the unpopular minority vote STFU.

Who gives a damn about your soda? I haven't purchased sodas for years. So, I drink purified water and naturally sweetened juices (sometimes w/Tequila), instead. I don't even need prescription drugs, at 67 years old.
Our nation is deeply divided by hyper-partisanship, we're still at war in several ME countries, Iran is now unified against US, Iraq wants US out of their country, N Korea is threatening us with nuclear ICBMs, climate change is threatening life on Earth, and 40,000 Americans are killed every year by gun violence, and Trump is taking social safety nets such as SNAP, healthcare, and EPA protections. But, you can only whine over the size of your soda. Why should everyone else pay higher insurance premiums, just to treat your fat assed obesity related diseases?

@nobilesnovushomo58 15,000 American soldiers in the ME. 2000 more are being deployed to Iraq. 60 B52 bombers are enroute to the region, just to ensure that Iran is contained.
Trump shamelessly abandoned our Kurdish allies against ISIS, leaving them to be slaughtered by Turkey. Now, Russia has replaced US in that region of Syria.
I have no problem with living my own life by my own merit. I always have. But, I have major problems with this POS POTUS calling patriotic Democrats 'traitors'. What could possibly be more divisive than that?
Trump's self image is that of a godfather running his mobster cabinet and Congressional Republicans with absolute control. He understands nothing about the Constitutional division of powers nor Congressional oversight. His first act was to summon Congressional Republicans into the Oval Office for his 'embrace', signifying their oath of loyalty to him over party and country. Now, they stand before national TV lying their asses off in his defense.
Trump's mob is attempting a coup against our nation and the Republicans are complicit. He only needs to win the election, plus a few more House seats to successfully pull it off. His heirs are already poised to inherit his crown and kingdom.
But, let's all focus upon the size of our soda containers, instead.

@nobilesnovushomo58 I've noticed that Trumptards will invariably divert every conversation away from Trump's corruption to obscure cases in ancient history when some Democrat allegedly did something wrong. It's fine for Trump to demonize half of our nation at every rally, because Joe (gaff machine) Biden made some off handed comment, of which you are quoting out of context? Then, you have to go all the way to England to pull out a drunken driver accident? Really, is that the best you can come up with compared to Trump's constant drum? He is supposed to be the POTUS, not the POTRNC.
WTF are you talking about regarding Obama? I didn't even mention his name nor anything to do with him. You simply pulled that out of your own ass.
Finally, we come to the impeachment, which you clearly don't understand. The House successfully impeached Trump, in spite of the Republican's shameless display of loyalty towards Trump over their party, oath of office, and our nation.
The trial part doesn't happen until the articles of impeachment are submitted to the Senate. That's when the trial begins. But, McConnell and Graham were so cocky that they stupidly revealed their hand that the trial would be dictated by the White House (the defendant) and steam rolled to an automatic acquittal. This is absolutely illegal and unconstitutional... political corruption at its worst. Why would seasoned politicians jeopardize their careers? BECAUSE THEY ARE AFRAID TO CROSS THEIR GODFATHER MOB BOSS!!
No, I'm not new to politics and I have never seen such a blatant display of cowardice.
Pelosi knows exactly what she is doing, which is protecting Constitutional Law.

@laurinneff4304 The eMMC doesn't contact the heatsink, so there's no cooling benefit. In fact, the hot heatsink only blocks airflow, so it's probably worse.
There's thermal paste between the heatsink and RK3399, so one must be careful not to get that everywhere. Then, it should be removed w/alcohol and replaced when reassembled.
But, to tell the truth, accessing the eMMC module is a rare occurrence, only required for upgrade or after module failure. As you say, the eMMC can be reflashed in situ.
My point was more a matter of yet another example of shortsighted design work, IMO.
Hope you're happy with it. I've move on to more mature SBCs and am much happier with them.

@Oneofthreefiftymillion 2 sides to every coin. tRump set up the bad deal with the Taliban 1 1/2 years ago, leaving Biden to deal with the evacuations. tRump incited the attack upon our nation's Capitol, just to overthrow our democratic election. He is nothing more than the cult leader of anarchist groups, who only want to 'destroy our democracy', just as he spent 5 years accusing Dems of.
tRump has hijacked the entire GOP and turned it into the GQP of conspiracy nut cases, denying science, defying CDC health advisories, and is killing US citizens. Soon, we will witness Delta spreading through the schools like wildfire, killing children. None of this had to happen if only ignorant, contrary tRumptards would stop politicizing the pandemic.
Dems didn't defund the police. That's nothing more than right wing BS. But, the 'bad apples' within the police forces need to be purged and held accountable for illegal authoritarian and racial profiling.
WTF are you talking about? Dems aren't giving themselves 5 Trillion. Biden's administration is trying to invest $3.5 Trillion into badly neglected infrastructure, creating millions of US jobs Dems are trying to be more responsible about mitigating against climate change. FFS! THE WORLD IS BURNING, RIVERS AND RESERVOIRS ARE DRYING UP, CROPS ARE FAILING, POLAR ICE CAPS ARE MELTING, SUPER STORM EVENTS ARE INCREASING. WTF ARE REPUBLICANS PREPARED TO DO ABOUT IT? WHATEVER THEIR DICTATOR SAYS!!!
The GOP/ GQP is always on the wrong side of all important issues, just to kowtow to tRump and the fossil fuel industry. Now, they're taking away the power of We the People with restrictive voting laws and the ability to nullify the majority. Republicans will blatantly lie and cheat to hold onto power.
NEVER VOTE FOR REPUBLICANTS!

@kyoudaiken I was using a RPi 4, w/SSD as my main media server on a 4K TV for years, until a laser app forced me to purchase a Winblows miniPC. TBH, the experience isn't as different as the price suggests.
Nowadays, the majority of my video playback is via YT and already limited by WiFi bandwidth.
Rarely worried about GPUs when I was a college PC tech for 18 years and don't worry about them now. So, TBH, I don't get the need for a >$200 graphics card on an SBC. Once at that high price tag, then why not just purchase an OTC PC with the desired GPU?
"Everybody's somewhere."
But, I'm not everybody, just an average end user and maker of IoT devices (mostly MCUs).
Currently, I'm in love the Teensy 4.1 MIDI controllable laser synth that only took me a few weeks to develop. Again, excellent documentation and a welcoming support forum makes all the difference between my projects' success and successive frustrations, inevitably ending in costly failures.
Rabbit holes become expensive.

Google:
"Donald Trump attended New York Military Academy (1959–64), a private boarding school; Fordham University in the Bronx (1964–66); and the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Finance and Commerce (1966–68), where he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in economics. In 1968, during the Vietnam War, he secured a diagnosis of bone spurs, which qualified him for a medical exemption from the military draft (he had earlier received four draft deferments for education). Upon his graduation Trump began working full-time for his father’s business, helping to manage its holdings of rental housing, then estimated at between 10,000 and 22,000 units. In 1974 he became president of a conglomeration of Trump-owned corporations and partnerships, which he later named the Trump Organization.
During the 1960s and early 1970s, Trump-owned housing developments in New York City, Cincinnati, Ohio, and Norfolk, Virginia, were the target of several complaints of racial discrimination against African Americans and other minority groups. In 1973 Fred and Donald Trump, along with their company, were sued by the U.S. Justice Department for allegedly violating the Fair Housing Act (1968) in the operation of 39 apartment buildings in New York City."

YES! I don't even watch Meet the Pres anymore with Todd's "equal voice" and negative devil's advocate BS. The right wing extremists don't even deserve a place at the table, much less parroting their anti-American government rhetoric.
Leftist MSM has sold out to irresponsible sensationalism and pandering to attract tRump's audience. Constantly wringing their hands over whether Dems want Biden to run in 2024, while our very democracy is in jeopardy.
First, it was 6 months' worth of daily "Afghanistan withdrawal debacle" loop, which was one day's worth of unpredictable panic-crazed Afghans breaching the perimeter wall of Karzai Airport. Why didn't the MSM report on the thousands of gun deaths in Americans' own backyards EVERY 3 WEEKS, compared to only 23 deaths during the 2 week evacuations, in the middle of a terrorist war zone and coup? Why was no credit given for recruiting the Taliban for perimeter security and escorting westerners out of Afghanistan? All I've heard is BS about how Americans were left behind (because they chose to stay with their Afghan families).
Then, it was "port blockages" (because the supply chain couldn't keep up with Christmas shoppers).
OMG! Inflation, inflation, inflation!! (Because of high demand and low productivity during shutdowns)
"Tisk, tisk! Biden's depleting our SOR by supplying oil to China!!! That won't work. Look at him, begging OPEC to increase their production." (Gas prices have been going down ever since)
"OMG!!! Our Commander in Chief is being flanked by 2 Marine honor guards during his address to the nation regarding an undisciplined sector of our society. /smh

Hey Folks, I'm sorry to have to say this, but needs must.
This is THE President of the United States of America, speaking to our nation for your benefit. He is not an orange circus clown, performing for your amusement. This is HIS global arena, not your private back yard.
President Biden is trying to explain precisely how his administration is saving thousands of families from poverty and homelessness. He is proudly declaring to the world that "Americans are capable of achieving anything when they put their minds to a task". He truly believes those words. In return, many of you are spitting in his face as the world watches.
Your comments are enabled because our POTUS wants to give his fellow American citizens a voice, regardless of them being broadcast to an International audience, including the leaders of our allies, as well as Xi, Putin, Kim, and many of our enemies.
They love nothing more than witnessing an American POTUS being inflicted by thousands of your cuts and needles; disgracefully being dragged through the muck you're slinging. They use your childish, petty rants and criticisms as evidence that our nation is weak and failing. Your words are their propaganda.
So, why don't you show some respect for the office and leader of the free world, instead of tearing him down with cheap shots and undermining your own nation?
MAGA is not just a slogan. Greatness isn't made like a garment, then stored inside a closet; it must be lived every day as an example for others to admire and emulate. It is earned by behaving in a dignified manner that nurtures personal pride. Greatness is achieved by showing compassion towards the down trodden; not turning them away.
Patriotism is not about playing inspirational C&W songs, nor waving Ole Glory around, just to show off. Any fool can do those things.
Patriotism is not overthrowing our government with weapons and force. Any idiot can pull a trigger. In fact, those are the most dangerous.
Insurrections are the actions of uncivilized, shit hole countries, being ruled by authoritarian dictators. Have we fallen as far as those of whom we reject?
Patriotism is being responsible for electing respectable, trust worthy leaders who understand and adhere to our Constitutional laws and order, then allowing the democratic peaceful transfer of power to occur.
Please, be mindful of your words and consider that the world is watching US. Please don't embarrass our POTUS while he is working on the world's stage, performing the job we have appointed him to do.
As President Biden says, "We're better than that." But, that remains to be seen. It's up to every individual to prove. Don't be the infamous "ugly Americans".
Freedom of speech doesn't make arrogance, vulgarity, nor verbal abuse acceptable. Never has; never will. Make Americans proud by showing the world compassion, not abuse.
Thank you.

@Suebear6157 FYI, I live in the US and know exactly what President Biden did to distribute sufficient free vaccinations throughout our nation for every US citizen, who would accept them.
Furthermore, as you well know, this administration continued following up with free booster shots to protect US against COVID variants, until 70% herd immunity was achieved.
Why are you lying about the pandemic not being over, despite our lives have been returned to normal, w/o supply chain disruptions, empty store shelves, and more people back to work than during pre-pandemic days?
Yes, some people are still being infected, but the only remaining deaths are anti-vaxxers.
Vaccines are not prophylactic barriers against infections. They only boost one's existing natural immune systems to attack and destroy COVID infections to avoid death and infecting others... aka 'herd immunity', because of insufficient viable host victims for the virus to proliferate from one to another.
Unless you're fully vaccinated and boosted, then you are a potential carrier, victimizing and potentially killing others , out of sheer willful ignorance.

Glad you're still covering this threat, while it was nothing more than a blip on MSM's coverage. I've given this matter some serious thought an would like to share them with everyone.
#1) No one has verified that 'nuclear' satellite means a nuclear bomb.
It is more logically nuclear powered. A bomb would scatter dangerous debris throughout space orbits, which harms Russia as well.
IMO, you are correct that the objective is to disable communication satellites, but without destroying them. Their most vulnerable weakness is their dependency upon solar power.
Within seconds, a laser that's positioned on the solar side of Earth could easily take out the majority of PV solar arrays, which would be facing the sun and communicating with the USA, during daytime. But, the Earth would shield those communicating on the opposite side of the planet.
But, lasers require lots of power, more than is provided by solar panels. That's why Russia's satellite is nuclear powered, which would also make it invulnerable against similar laser attacks.
I've been working with lasers for several decades and know what I'm talking about. There is no atmospheres in space to diffuse or obstruct lasers.

You're implying that the Taliban is a dominant culture over the US military? 2000 year old tribal culture vs US military power? Apples and oranges, Pal. But, I agree that our infant of a nation has no business trying to arrogantly impose our ideologies upon other ancient civilizations, of which we don't even understand.
As we are witnessing, progress can be either destructive or beneficial, depending upon who is using it. Like Yin and Yang, it cuts both ways.
fortunately, we now have a POTUS who understands how to wield his power for the benefit of millions of people, instead of enriching oil US tycoons for political donations.

@CultureoftheWorld This is exactly why I don't listen to MSM punditry. I pay close attention to the official WH press briefings and the actions (not the words) of our elected leaders.
The GOP has a serious problem with dishonesty, as well, especially since tRump has taught them the art of corrupt politics. They are currently going through their death throws of denialism, just to appease their orange godfather.
Admittedly, Dems nor any other human is perfect. But, at least they are trying to uphold our 'fair and balanced' Constitutional laws, just as our Founders intended.
Biden's administration is the most transparent and earnest of any I've known over my 70 year lifetime.
Republicans have always made me ashamed of being a US citizen, especially since tRump. I hate their inflammatory rhetoric against 1/2 of our nation's citizens. F'ing idiots and deplorables, just as Hillary stated. That's why I call them 'tRumptarded traitors'.
But, I proudly support Biden and Obama's long years of service, ACA, and BBB agenda to improve our nation.

@alexxela9502 No, Comrade. It is yourself, who is confused by unconscionable Russian propaganda, seriously believing that ANY nation's voters would approve of ANYTHING by 92%.
What's the difference between Crimean people and Ukrainian people, who are fighting their hearts out and risking their lives to fight against Russian occupation, as winter approaches and Putin taking out their only sources of heating?
Your media is controlled by the Kremlin, so you only know what Putin wants you to hear.
Don't tell me that I did this and that. I am NOT the US government, nor am I required to represent their interests.
Why are you deflecting the subject to Kosovo, which has nothing to do with Ukraine, except that Putin is causing the same problems there?
According to Google:
"The United States formally recognized Kosovo as a sovereign and independent state on February 18. To date, Kosovo has been recognized by a robust majority of European states, the United States, Japan, and Canada, and by other states from the Americas, Africa, and Asia."
Putin's demise is inevitable, because he continues to pursue failed military strategies, such as fighting on multiple fronts, enlisting amateurs and deploying them w/o proper training and weaponry.
No one threatens the American led NATO alliance, not during WW II and not now.
Putin is nothing more than an arrogant, overly-cocky little man...Biden's punk.

@RadioFreeNorCal Yeah, I'm fully aware of the fact that state electors count the popular votes, certify them, and pass their votes to the Senate for confirmation, tRumptard. So, why didn't that happen after the 2020 election?
FYI, I don't have any children and as a 68 year old hermit, I won't, asshole.
There's no such thing as an intelligent, informed tRumptard. You are all nothing more than a cult of naïve, gullible morons.
In case you haven't noticed, tRump ALWAYS betrays everyone, once he can no longer use and abuse them. Just ask his idiots sitting in jail after they followed his orders to storm our nation's Capitol. Is he footing the bills for their legal defense? roflmao!

@d.j.blackrick3528 No, I haven't heard that. I heard that over 4000 Americans have already been evacuated and helicopter sorties are picking up Americans at prearranged locations, even beyond Kabul.
Why didn't the Americans leave 4 months ago, when they were advised to do so, instead of causing this dangerous mess? But, F'NO, they wanted their blessed freedom to stay, didn't they?
According to most reports, the Taliban have allowed evacuations until Aug 31.
Why does every tRumptard attack our POTUS over conjured up BS and fear mongering over what they predict will happen? Their anti-Dem predictions are ALWAYS wrong, simply because they can't predict what people they don't understand will do.
"Those radical left wing extremists only want to destroy our great nation...blah, blah, blah" BFS!
Glad that I don't live inside such a horrific frightened mind. BTW, I'm not a Dem, don't own a gun, never lock my doors, and don't get my news from CNN.
But, you can bet your left nut that I would NEVER, EVER support tRump, who negotiated this 'deal' with the Taliban. Terrorists dealing with the devil, go figure. What could possibly go wrong?

Cody Webb Joe Biden was competent enough to beat tRump by over 7,000,000 votes, wasn't he? What does that say about tRump's incompetence? He sold out to the Taliban for the political advantage of no US troop deaths until after the election. now, Joe Biden has the task of honoring tRump's raw deal with the devil (or is HE the devil?)
IMO, President Biden is commanding an impossible mission and doing a great job of it.
He postponed the withdrawal date from 5/1/21 to 8/31/21 to allow more time to save thousands of US citizens + ~100,000 Afghan contractors.
Steve Miller stopped the processing of SIVs for our Afghan contractors 2 years ago, causing the existing paper jam.
This administration warned about the looming threat of ISIS-K, days before they attacked. US citizens were even told to sty away from the gates, just before the suicide bombs exploded.
Biden is honest, transparent as possible, experienced, and respected by our allies. That's why 16 allied countries stepped up to assist with taking in Afghan refugees.
Even the Taliban are assisting by providing airport security around the outer perimeter, ffs!
Only a tRumptard traitor would kick our POTUS, while he is in the middle of walking the tightrope balancing feat between risking US troops and saving Afghan contractors' lives.
We only have one POTUS and Commander in Chief. Either support him like a patriotic US citizen or STFU.

HELLOO~O! /smh
Nauta, without security clearances, already admitted to photocopying and uploading classified docs to a cloud server, while serving tRump in an unofficial capacity at the White House.
That makes Nauta the 'gatekeeper', who can grant whomever access to whichever docs, as ordered by tRump.
Jack Smith already knows this and that the RBI found downloaded copies of those online docs inside tRump's office at Mara Lago.
Nauta says, "Here's a good one for you, Boss."
"Yes, MBS or Putin would pay $millions for that nuclear defense info."
"Hey, Vlad. How much would you be willing to pay for this <shows proof of ownership via phone cam>? That's fine by me, Comrade. You already know where to deposit the money. Waltine will grant you access, as soon as it clears.
Yes, I'll let you know when I find more."
THAT'S THE ESPIONAGE!
That's what tRump doesn't want to be exposed in Cannon's court.
Her wildest dreams are within the palms of her own hands, by simply denying or delaying justice beyond Nov 5.

Let me get this straight.
Fetterman wants a $15 federal minimum wage, which Congressional Republicants already oppose. But, Oz wants it to be $30-$45 per hour?
Then Oz is seriously suggesting that fracking be socialized to fund his $45 minimum wages?
Is Oz an Republican or Socialist, running to the left of Fetterman and Dems?
Oh, right. Oz is a tRump loyalist, with no true Republican party affiliation. Oz only needs to be a tRumptarded election denier. Just give the lonesome, narcissistic, back-stabbing don a hug of loyalty, join his mob, and any idiot can be a Congressman, governor, or justice. /smh

@Phoenix-Tide Yes, AOC was a broke bartender, who learned about her constituents, paid her own way through college, earned a degree, became successful, and is being paid $174K for being the dynamic Representative, defending our nation against radical right wing corrupt SCOTUS justices, who have grifted $Billions from filthy rich oligarchs, on behalf of US.
Let's talk about Jared's $2Billion from the Saudi prince, who dismembered the body of a dissident journalist.

@JohnSmith-yl6dn FYI, a 'socialist Democrat' is NOT a Socialist. It is a Democrat, who supports popular social safety net programs, like Social Security, Healthcare, and education.
BFD! They are not traitors against democracy, like tRump, are they? trump likes Putin and Kim. Is he a Communist, a (lying) billionaire capitalist, or just a grifting traitor?
Since you support tRump, doesn't that make you a lying traitor, by association as well?

For over 50 years, OSHA regs hve required employers to provide a safe working environment for employees. That's also being demonstrated by the CEO of the Federal government, aka President Biden. Since then, other major corporate employers have followed suite and the hospitalizations immediately started dropping. So, the mandates are working to stop the pandemic.
Yes, employees have the right to choose whether to get the jab or not. Therefore, they can obey their employers' safety measures (just like helmets, eye protection, and steel toed boots) or stay home without pay as long as they please. It's entirely their own personal choice. But, they might want to discuss it with their spouse.
IMO, they'll be back on the job as soon as they miss the first paycheck.
Everyone gets vaccinated, the pandemic ends, millions of lives are saved, and life returns to normal. Problems solved.

@kathymartin6528 Cavin' McCarthy is spineless and won't hold the Q-nut Freedom's Caucus, once face to face with President Biden, Schumer, and McConnell, who also won't allow the government to default on its debt.
After their meeting about reality, McCarthy will go back to his House, with his tail between his legs, begging them to stop their malarkey and get serious.
MTG will cast a vote of no confidence, which will throw the House into disarray, because they have no alternative candidate, who is capable of achieving a majority vote.
Meanwhile, Jefferies could become SoH, with only ~20 sensible old school Republicans, who have had it with tRump's 'loyalist' saboteurs destroying the GOP.

@christophergood2314 So you have gone from being a Trumptard foreign troll to a guru, who understands the inner minds of humanity, aka propaganda.
I'm glad to see that you are seeking mental help, but copying and pasting the writings of others requires references, otherwise it's called plagiarism.
Yeah, I've been there and done that, studied several religions, Buddhist,Tao, and Zen philosophies, even visited gurus and LSD, which I see that you're interested in. And I am mature enough to spot indoctrination BS when I see it.
So piss off, troll and leave me alone.

Recently went through exactly the same process, trying to 'gracefully' mount my RPi4B + USB3.0/USB-C/SSD dongle onto the back of my 7" Touchscreen. The micro HDMI to HDMI connection makes it even more challenging. Purchased the full range of 90 deg HDMI & USB adapters, plus short adapter cables. But, only the short cable adapters were useful. Purchased a shorter SSD, then chopped some length off the dongle.
Finally settled on the RPi4 being mounted in the middle of the touchscreen's back, with the USB connectors pointing upward for access. The SSD dongle is mounted beside the RPi4, opposite the power & microHDMI connectors (near the same on the touchscreen).
Enclosing the RPi form factor is always a challenge, because connectors are on 2 sides, the microSD slot on another, plus the GPIO header along the remaining side or top (with a cooling fan). Glad to see Compute Modules breaking the mold, along with other SBC mfrs, like Khadas. Hope that future CM4+ carrier boards will provide M.2 NVMe and connectors along one side.🙏

The 'godfather' summoned all of the Congressional Republicans into the Oval Office as soon as he arrived. Trump understands that 'every an has his price' and has the resources to pay it. Obviously, he gave them an offer they couldn't refuse. His 'embrace' sealed their oath of allegiance to him, above party and nation. That's why he has absolute control over the Senate and House Republicans. Woe to anyone who breaks their vow by not holding the Trump Party line. Yes, I said Trump Party because he owns the Republicans.
This is the only possible explanation for their shameless behavior throughout the impeachment proceedings. This is also the only explanation of McConnell's public statement that he would follow the White House counsel's guidance and that there is 0 chance of impeachment passing the Senate. This is illegal and unconstitutional.
After the backlash of a failed impeachment, Trump will win the election, Dems will lose the House and a vindicated Trump will be unstoppable. Within only 4 years, Trump and his motley mob of Cabinet henchmen will have successfully conducted a coup against our democracy, without firing a shot. He has already floated ending term limits and is poised to become America's first dictator. Of course, his ego would prefer the title of 'King of the World.' Then, his heirs in waiting could inherit his 'kingdom'. Bada-bing. Just like that.
You think I'm crazy? Who's gonna stop him? His only check on power is the Dem controlled House and they have already failed, simply because everyone dismissed it as only a hyper-partisanship. So, guess again. Tick-tock.......(crickets chirping)

@roadwary No. Fully woke, tRumptard.
FYI, Jews, Christians, and Muslims have been murdering each other for 2000 years, in the name of their same god, who commanded, "THOU SHALL NOT KILL.'
Reaganomics has underfunded our government into $34T national debt.
Clinton handed W a balanced budget.
Bush/Cheney lied to wreak 'shock & awe' bombing upon innocent Iraqis, which spread turmoil throughout the Middle East, before needing Obama/Biden to save Wall Street, the auto industry, and families from losing their homes over healthcare bills. Then, they handed tRump a growing, thriving economy.
tRump gave away $2T tax loopholes to filthy rich billionaires and added $8T to our national debt.
Biden just negotiated a ceasefire between Israel & Lebanon.
tRump wants to negotiate away Ukraine's sovereign land for Putin and start global trade wars.
Facts and history matters.

True, Biden's administration hasn't pushed for a DC state, probably just because he's been a little preoccupied with stopping COVID, illegal immigration, rallying our global allies against Russia's invasion of Ukraine (without triggering WW III), refereeing a 2000 year old holy war, and the House MAGA saboteurs constantly obstructing everything he is trying to accomplish, don't you think?.
Why must Dems criticize our own candidate, who has saved the soul of our nation, as promised? Why must MSM pundits attack the old man, who accomplished more in 1/2 a term than others during their full terms?
Polling = MSM messaging.
Get it?
Then get with the program.

You're absolutely correct. No one can reason with these sorry excuses of US citizens. They are willfully ignorant. 'There are none so blind as those who refuse to see."
Snowflake Dems have been trying and failing to apply civil persuasion for 7 years, only to be bullied into submission by the most deplorable among the US.
I don't waste my time trying to debate the MAGA cult. They only know how to parrot Faux Spews BS, are ignorant of political matters, and it's like arguing with a brick wall.
I'm here EVERY day, calling them out to counter their BS. So, I insult them, shame them, and inform them of who they and tRump REALLY are:
"weak-minded, TDS infected, brainwashed, tRumptarded traitors" and their BS 'Chosen One' being a notorious, silver-spoon-fed, life-long, narcissistic, lying, cheating, pussy-grabbing, whoremongering, corrupt, wannabe mafia mob boss/dictator/king of the world's dictators.
I'm damned proud to be 'woke' and consider it to be my patriotic duty. Why should I show any respect to the lawless anarchists, white supremacists, and violent insurrectionists who disgraced Ole Glory by using her to storm our nation's capitol to obstruct the peaceful transfer of Executive power to the undeniable majority choice of We the People?
TRUMP IS A TRAITOR!!!

@Just-Human OUR 1st Amendment clearly states:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."
Yes, you have the right to shoot your mouth off, but NOT the right to take away women's reproductive rights to choose when to give birth, nor to impose your religious superstitions onto others.
Whatever is inside an individual's body belongs to that individual.
That's how it has always been, even prior to Roe, and how it soon will be again.
But, women's 'parts' were never discussed beyond the privacy of one's home and family, instead of everyone sticking their noses inside her uterus.
This wasn't a problem on anyone's radar, until SCOTUS unconstitutionally legislated from their bench. Laws cut both ways, until MAGA came along.

WE'RE UP SHIT CREEK, W/O A PADDLE!
Biden's debate coach is incompetent, allowing Biden to step on stage, before hacking up that throat full of phlegm.
Biden sounded weak, compared to trump's full strong voice.
Biden's head down posture was submissive and his reactions to lies were lifeless, compared to tRump's arrogantly standing tall.
Afghanistan's withdrawal was negotiated between tRump and the Taliban.... ZZzz..
Clean water? Replacing lead pipes.
The world laughing at Biden? tRump's UN address.
Iran? tRump's reneging on JPCOA.
Missed counterpoints, time after time...
Full disclosure: I've been the Biden administration's biggest fan and active never-tRumper. But only fools would ride a faithful old workhorse all the way into the ground.
Best regards to President Biden and thank you, Sir, for stepping up to save our nation, just when we needed you the most. Your excellent, mindfully modest leadership has truly made America greater than under tRump. Please enjoy the remaining years of life, knowing that you have succeeded in achieving your goal of saving our nation, against all odds.
IMHO, the time has come for President Biden to pass the baton to the next generation of Dem leaders, before the bird has flown.
I support Constitutional lawyer, Jan 6 House Committee prosecutor, oratorical master, and highly respected, popular, and happy warrior for democracy, Rep Jamie Raskin.
RASKIN/AOC 2024!! The right team to continue a righteous agenda

@somnuswaltz5586 Minimized my driving.
Investing several hours every day educating people that climate change/global warming is real, because scientists have been warning the world of these consequences for over 1/2 a century.
Reminding right wing climate deniers that they are jeopardizing the lives of their own children.
Although I was raised on a traditional farm, with beef cattle, prior to 1970, I stopped eating all beef in 1980, when I learned about the clearcutting of huge areas, of the Amazon rain forest, just to provide beef for McDonald's hamburgers.
This is a global problem, which will require a 100% global effort to mitigate.
President Biden is making the right policies and investments in the right policies, while Republicant politicians are willfully ignorant and permanently latched onto the teats of corporate oil lobbyists, regardless of the consequences.

I'm a never-tRumper, who is very unhappy with what I've been watching on MSM, who have been spent the past 2 years telling voters, "Afghan withdrawal, Afghan withdrawal, Afghan withdrawal! Inflation! Inflation! Inflation! Economy! Economy! Economy!"
Instead, nothing about how well President Biden has guided US through the worst pandemic in history, saved millions of lives with an amazingly successful vaccine distribution, done everything within the power of the POTUS to mitigate inflation, and has created the strongest economy in the world.
President Biden hasn't failed US at any level, MSM has failed our POTUS on every level of responsible reporting.
6 months of reruns of one day when panic-crazed Afghans flooded onto the runway of Karzai airport and 12 troops being killed by a suicide bomber during a terrorist coup. "Oh My! What a horror story!"
Not a word about the 2000 who are killed by guns EVERY 3 WEEKS in our own neighborhoods to put it into context.
What about reminding folks of the imminent catastrophic effects of climate change?
"OMG! Open borders, illegal immigration, fentanyl killing our children!" Staged shit-shows being broadcast to voters by Republcants, yet NOT A WORD about their refusal to allow a comprehensive immigration bill to enter the chambers of Congress for debate!
Dems are on the right side of EVERY issue, while the Republicants' ONLY issue is complaining w/o ANY solutions.
MSM exploits viewers' ratings, with consistent wailings and endless pontificating over life's every imperfection, while kicking the very Ole Man who is working his butt off to solve those problems. That's what MSM is planting into voters' minds.
MSM, AG Garland's ignorance of tRump's election interference, and his brainwashed cult are equally responsible for the downfall of US democracy.
MSM keeps the stage set for tRump, Garland's DoJ does nothing and evil is thriving.

I completely disagree with all of the pissing and moaning going on, while President Biden has guided us through very perilous times of a pandemic, shutdowns, layoffs, a war, supply chain disruptions, a fuel embargo against Russian oil...
AND WE'RE DOING BETTER THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD, FFS!!
Donna is correct that tRump is sucking up all of the MSM coverage. I haven't seen a single Dem campaign, only 2 months out from the midterms.
But, we're hearing all about tRump's loyalist challenges on the other side of the aisle, aren't we?
Gee, I wonder whose names will be remembered at the ballot boxes. NOT!
HELLO~O! Yes, Biden is getting old, but not so old that he couldn't kick tRump's ass out of the Oval office. WASN'T THAT THE ONLY POINT FOR HIM CAMPAIGNING?
NEWS FLASH!!! BIDEN'S NOT ON ANY MIDTERM TICKETS!! So why are you talking about him running in 2024? tRump will be in prison by then, anyway.
FOCUS ON THE MOST CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER FOR OUR NATION, FOLKS!!! THESE MIDTERMS!!
If those lying, cheating, loyalist Q-nuts take Over Congress and ruin our nation's future,
IT'S ALL ON MSM's BS MESSAGING, NOT DUE TO THE DECENT OLE MAN WHO SAVED US FROM ANOTHER TERM OF TRUMPISM AND MILLIONS OF LIVES!! /SMH

Just watched a presser that was staged by Linseed Graham. Instead of respecting President Biden's responsibility as our POTUS to handle an international crisis, Graham has to stick his nose into it, which will inevitably create a divided US front, mixed global messaging, criticisms of our nation's efforts under the current administration, and is a deliberate attempt to undermine and weaken our international integrity.
The GQP is so desperate that they can't allow Biden to win public approval for doing a great job of uniting the free world against Putin, so they resort to sabotage, lying, and cheating, just as tRump has taught his hijacked party of corruption.
There should be a law against US senators exceeding their authority to interfere in global matters, without the approval of our POTUS.

4/5 negativity, 'Biden is a nice guy, but no Obama nor Clinton" "Afghanistan (reminder)", "COVID, COVID, COVID", "Inflation, inflation, inflation.", "Supply chain bottlenecks", "Woe are we Dems." /smh
15 second summary, "He has mostly handled his job with intelligence and decency, BUT he is paying the price for the complicated times we're living through."
JFC, Fareed! Thanks for energizing the Dems' base with such positivity and enthusiastic support of your own party's leader of the free world. /sic

Why would anyone want to belong to a party that's so pathetic that they can't fairly win elections on their own merit, without states' corrupt voter suppression laws, and without the blessings of a corrupt, mafioso mob boss, aka godfather tRump, their don?
This is a desperate party, grasping at straws, willing to sell out their own nation, just to appease a narcissistic con man, who has never served nor helped anyone but himself and his billionaire donors, just to hold onto his own long gone executive immunity to stay out of prison for treason, conspiring to commit a coup, and inciting the insurrectionist attack upon our nation's Capitol.
LOCK HIM UP and this nightmare will finally end.

"Some people just need a short, sharp shock, can you dig it? I mean good manners don't cost nothing, do they?" - Pink Floyd
I deliberately provoke Trump supporters by calling them 'Trumptards'. Most Trumptards are absolutely deplorable, ignorant of Trump's deceptions, gullible for his lies, naive of his intentions, defensive of his corruption, full of his hateful rhetoric against Democrats (over 1/2 of Americans). I explain to them that Trump is a narcissistic wannabe mafioso mob boss, with 'the Godfather' as a role model, and corrupt to the core. Trump has betrayed everything America has stood for, including our international allies. Putin dangles Trump from the end of a puppet's string. Trump is a traitor and so are his supporters. They want to destroy our constitutional law and order, congressional oversight, and accountability to voters. Trumptards are only being used by a con man to empower his henchmen and 'know not what they are doing'. I call out and expose corruption, traitors, and hypocrites so that they know they are under observation. That's The Hermit's duty.
But, the Ph.D. is right in that I've never converted anyone against voting for Trump. But, I''m only speaking in their own native language, so that they might remember my harsh warnings, as they drop off their ballots. Perhaps a few will reconsider voting for Trump instead of reuniting the United States of America, like REAL patriots.

We wouldn't have a Q-nut House of chaos, had Garland performed his duties, especially after the House Jan 6th Committee did the DoJ's work, investigations, sworn witness testimonies, and even served up the undeniable evidence with 3 televised broadcasted public hearings.
Garland is responsible for Ukrainians not having the weaponry to defend themselves.
There are known 'loyalist' seditious conspirators, deliberately sabotaging Congress, defunding our government, and conspiring to impeach our elected POTUS, based upon known Russian propaganda, yet the coward Garland is STILL willfully ignorant to the point of being complicit in destroying our nation's integrity on the global stage. /smh

Been using the Argon One cases for several months, now. Considering the programmable cooling, SSD, and additional features, they can't be beat, even by less expensive cases retrofitted with intelligent cooling/power HATS. Been there, done that. Anyone want my extra cooling HATS? Love these cases so much that I've purchased all 3 models:
* Argon One with programmable cooling;
* Argon One M.2 with the SATA SSD base.
FYI #1: the SSD base can be purchased separately to upgrade the above original Argon One with M.2 SSD & remote power on/off via IR.
FYI#2: Purchased a second Argon One M.2 and modified it to house the Geekworm 872 NVMe SSD board. But, that was only a fool's errand, because the USB3.0 kills the speed advantages offered by the more expensive NVMe SSD. Plus, the 972 board & NVMe were too power hungry for Pi's wall warts. (Oh well, my NVME will live in a CM4 board with on board M.2 for NVMe.)
* There's also an Argon One Sound case, with a builtin HifiBerry DAC, which I've added the above restored SATA SSD base and turned into a multi-room music streaming system over WiFi, with RPi/HifiBerry DAC receiver/amped speakers.
These cases are attractive enough for my living room home theater's primary web browser/downloads library (wish my 4K TV were dumber and cheaper). I'm using the standard Argon One to test Ubuntu and software. Happy Maker! :-)

Spot On Analysis! I'd love to see demographic breakdowns, based upon gender, religion, political affiliation, environmental awareness (just to confirm my own theories). Success is dependant upon priorities of goals.
I've worked towards goals all my life. Then unrelated, life altering opportunities appeared, so I reached for them. I've also noticed that, with age, opportunities are much more far and few between. IOW, you are either in the 'game' or not. "You've gotta play to win." "Quitters are losers."
Many people are not so thick skinned as to keep standing up, only to repeatedly get knocked down. "Insanity is defined as repeating the same action, while expecting a different result."🤔
Yet, this tenacity is vital while searching for employment. All jobs interviews are not the same. "Never give up!"😎

Personally, I feel exactly the same about the lying, cheating Congressional Republicants, who let tRump off the hook during both impeachment trials. IMO, those seditious conspirators should be purged from Congress and imprisoned, in accordance with the law. Yes, I totally get that, Paul.
On the other hand, I believe in a democracy with multiple political parties for voters to choose between. Whenever you start demonizing the Republican party, it's no different to tRump's 6 years+ of demonizing Dems, 1/2 of US citizens. That is why our nation is so divided, with a dysfunctional Congress.
That's why I narrow my attacks by separating the chaff from the wheat, if you catch my drift. The GOP Republicans (Cheney, Kinsinger, and Uh, Um. Hmm...🤔) have been overthrown by the cult of TDS infected tRumptarded traitors, loyalists, anarchists, domestic terrorists, white supremacists, fascists, corrupt politicians, and bigoted hypocrites.
Now, the disgraced (not so) Grand Ole man's Party members hate Dems so much that they'll vote for a POS, first. tRump is against truth, moral decency, and anyone who disagrees.
tRumptarded traitors need to be cut from the herd and shamed.
tRump's mafioso mob MUST be publicly incarcerated, before our nation can return to greatness and being the shining example for the world to emulate.
Right now, the world is only watching tRump thumbing his nose at the DoJ, shaking their heads, and saying, "What a shame how far the once mighty have fallen, just because of lies."
Trash the trash until the cows come home, Paul, but please don't waste all the vital water, while trying to flush the turds of society down the sewer, where they belong.

@Colorado_Native The one who passed the ACA to provide all Americans with healthcare. No, he was not a fortune teller and didn't anticipate that the insurance vultures would undermine his plan.
At the time, the 'Army deserter' was an American soldier being held hostage by ruthless terrorists. Would you have left him to be tortured?
The planes contained Iranian money, not ours. It was being withheld from Iran because of sanctions. In return, Iran agreed to stop uranium enrichment for 15 years. Thanks to Trump, they are back at it and testing guided missiles again.
Bowing to a Saudi prince shows respect for the royal position, not submission. It's called diplomacy, of which you know nothing.
Most of the remainder of your ridiculous assertions don't deserve response. But, who was the 'deporter in chief'? Who tanked our economy by wasting $5 Trillion on a war in Iraq, based upon lies, killing millions of innocent people in the process? Who stepped into office and saved our economy? Who reduced our $1.2 Trillion deficit to $800 Billion with a sequester deal with Congress?
Who has increased our annual deficit to over $1 Trillion by giving away tax cuts to billionaires? The same traitor who's going to jail for obstruction of justice soon.

Very interesting interview.
Yes, most Americans of moral conscience disagree with the atrocities of war, especially after sacrificing so much blood for such little gain, starting with Viet Nam, then the Middle East's failed 'nation building' ever since.
We don't see ourselves as being the problem, yet we blame our government for lying to US, just as Bush/Cheney did with their nonexistent WMDs to invade Iraq and 9/11 to scapegoat the Taliban (after failing to capture Bin Laden).
It's not the government, Stupid. It's the lying, pandering politicians that you idiots keep electing into positions of power.
tRumptards are the worst traitors of all. They betray their religion, our Founding Fathers' vision for a more perfect union, and every principle that makes any nation great; fundamental things like a freely candid press, fair elections, majority rule, and consequences for corrupt behavior and treason.
If we, as a nation, can't unite behind truth, justice, and our elected leaders, then only anarchy and a dog-eat-dog society is all that remains.
We need to defend our ideals against political corruption, not against our government that protects us.
MSM needs to stop sewing the seeds of discontent among the poor, undereducated, misfits of society. Those people need to be helped out of their misery, not given the voice and power to make the rest of US miserable with their failed attitudes.

A few weeks ago, while waiting in a checkout lane, with my groceries, I watched the cashier sneeze into her hand 4 times. When it was my turn, she sneezed again, so I said, "You know, it is much better to sneeze into your elbow, instead of your hand, especially while you're handling people's groceries, right?" She only muttered some kind of excuse.
2 weeks ago, the cashiers were wearing plastic gloves. This week not. The cashier was not in a very good mood and didn't reply to my observation. Apparently, they can't even protect their own employees, due to hoarding from their own shelves.

@bearrights273 What guys? What left wing people?
As my alias should make obvious, there's only one of me and hermits are neither sheeple nor herd animals. I independently speak only my own mind and only on behalf of myself. Therefore, I'm a patriotic US citizen, who hates what tRump has done to my nation. He and his anarchist cult are traitors, who only want to destroy our nation's democratic republic. First, he spends 5 years demonizing Dems and now he is lashing out at his own party, betraying his own people.
You're obviously neither high minded nor college educated, because those are not your types of people. But, you need to take an 8th grade Civics class to learn how our government is supposed to function. Then, you might understand what President Biden and Congressional Dems are doing to serve the needs of their constituents, who put them into power.

@feedingravens I grew up a Christian household, until I took my high school sweetheart to a school chaperoned dance at the local Armory, one Saturday night. (Dancing to rock n roll was worshiping Satan's music, so were movie theaters). One of the police chaperones was a church member. So, the following night, the congregation pressured me into kneeling at the alter to beg the lord's forgiveness for my sins. I went to the alter, just to get them off my back, then never returned to that church again.
So, my sojourn began in search of divine wisdom to learn my life's purpose.. Chariots of the Gods, Guru Maharaji, Tai Chi, Buddhism (not a religion, but a philosophy).
But all I found were mankind's grubby fingerprints all over the teachings, profiting from lost souls and seekers of truth. "You gotta meditate, just like I teach you and MAYBE you'll see god. Oh my, you have so much to learn in the meantime. BTW, don't forget to drop off your tithe on the way out, Grasshopper."
There was nothing there, no divine purpose, but did learn the ultimate answer to life, the Universe and everything is 42 (ref: Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy).
I've concluded that the only immortal, omnipotent, eternal, creator and destroyer of everything in the Universe is named 'Time'.
Everything from atomic particles to solar systems and beyond depend upon Time. Every heartbeat, breath, and every moment of every lifecycle of every lifeform is dictated by time.
There are hundreds of sayings:
Time is of the essence.
No one can turn back the hands of Time. Time waits for no one. Time to wake, Time to eat, Time to shower, Time to school, Time for exams, Time to graduate. Time to get a job. Time to leave home. Time to marry. Time to procreate. Time to die.
Success depends entirely upon being prepared to perform on Time. Ignoring the signs of Time results in certain failure.
Time is god. No Satan, no heavenly rewards, no fiery hell. We only get one shot at life, so make the best of every moment of every day. Learn from past mistakes, live in the moment, and plan for the future. Pray to Time, if you wish. It matters not and provides the same answers as every other god.
Don't expect miracles to save you from yourself. Use the brain tht has been evolving for over 8 billion years to survive and thrive, just like every other animal has managed..
Reincarnation from one physical being to another is by the inheritance of parents' combined DNA to their offspring.
Therefore the most important endeavor in life is caring for and passing our knowledge to our children, for endless generations to come, each more evolved than the previous.
This I understand, because I am the last of my bloodline, without the blessings and joy of teaching my own children.
So, now I'm sharing my knowledge with you, instead.
Perhaps, I will discuss Yin VS Yang sometime. They are the left and right hands of Time and exist in all things, physical and conceptual. But, that's a different conversation for a different Time.🙄
"A proper Time and place for all things."'
Oh, look! It's Time for me to go.💨👻.

@feedingravens Yes, just like the Old Testament was superstitions and mythologies, passed down through thousands of generations, with a little bit of parental morality thrown in to appease the gods.
'What's that rumbling noise from the sky, Papa?"
"Well, that's god letting you know that he is angry over you not doing your chores, Son."
Every story handed down from Gilgamesh has a moral lesson, to deliberately control the sheeple, with divine laws.
IMO, during the missing years from adolescence to adulthood, Jesus journeyed to India and learned his teachings of non violence and peaceful harmony from the Hindi and Buddhist philosophies, which were proliferating throughout Asia. Great stories of enlightenment and civilized cultures, compared to N. African tribes and the Roman conquerors.
I don't understand the hatred of peaceful people nor the desire to eliminate them, as the Romans had persecuted Jews and Christians.
I believe that Jesus was an enlightened man, who was betrayed by the Jewish culture because he wasn't kosher and professed to be a child of god (just like all mortals).
Roman Emperors couldn't allow any divine competition, so they asked the cild of god to prove that he is the son god, "Not my words, but thine."
Well, that pissed off the Caesars, so they hung him on a cross, just like the other Christians, who professed to be children of god.
Jesus was buried in a tomb, which was robbed by his disciples, who were nearly caught in the act by Roman soldiers.
"What have you done with the body of Christ?"
"Oh, you just missed him, rising up to Heaven, Officer. I swear that it's the truth. We saw it with our own eyes."
Then, the 3 religions of the same god, who commanded, "Thou shall not kill!" proceeded to murder each other in his name for the next 2000 years.
Everything is perfectly logical, except for religion. Archeological evidence proves 8 billion years worth of evolution, beyond all logical doubt... but that's not good enough for "god fearing Christians".
Best Regards.😎

@feedingravens "The only constant in life is change."
- attributed to Heraclitus of Ephesus.
The Greek Philosopher, Heraclitus, wrote a single book, now lost to us (over Time 🙄). He is perhaps best known for thoughts on the universe being in constant flux."
Google's AI added:
"One constant since the beginning of time might be change, however, the fear of change is also a constant. Since times immemorial, humans have liked routine. It makes us feel in control of our lives."
How pertinent! Funny ole world, ain't it?
Archeological evidence proves that all life forms on Earth are the result of over, an inconceivable, 8 million years worth of evolutionary change. No god required. This is another one of my favorites:
"If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent Him." -Voltaire.
8 billion years worth of evolutionary Time is inconceivable, as well as how effective the simple concept of ebb/flow adaptations to maintain the ever changing balance between opposing/attractions of yin/yang, locked in symbiotic coexistence.
Nurturing female mothers + protective hunter/gatherer males are vital to the survival of a species.
But changing seasons require migration cycles and interdependent social structures among carnivorous predators (who hunt in small organized packs and only consume the weaklings and elderly) and their herbivorous prey (who herd together with vigilant eyes for protection).
Only the most aggressive alpha male can be the leader of the pack, with his choice of females. Within that social structure, everyone knows their place and responsibilities, until the alpha dog is defeated by a stronger, more aggressive challenger.
No god required; only an individual's strongest instinct for survival and natural selection (mostly by females, IMO) and survival of the fittest (strong aggressive male family defenders/hunter gatherer/providers).
Their offspring benefit from inheriting the successful genes from both. Non beneficial mutations are rejected from mating and simply die off.
Ironically, the most successful species, like bacteria are the least evolved, yet are vital to the life cycles of all other species in a symbiotic coexistence, such as probiotics.
Which is more important to a well balanced, healthy eco system of yin/yang? Simple bacteria, worms and maggots vs the highly evolved, yet mindlessly destructive human species, who has conquered nature into submission, for narcissistic fun, fame, and fortune; aka the 3 evils of mankind?
As you have previously mentioned, the more scientific knowledge we have acquired (over Time, since the invention of the printing press), the more detached we have become from the natural world.
Since the invention of money, the more detached we have become from the fundamental values of essential necessities and the importance for respectful compensation for the labors of others (aka the balance of income equality). Nowadays, successful mating depends more upon monetary success, so that impotent males can impress independent females with luxurious lifestyles.
Opulent mansions, timeshare getaways, pools, Jacuzzis, flashy cars, yachts, gas guzzling toys, and exotic vacations, instead of mindful (favorite Buddhist term) mitigation of the environmental consequences of one's own misguided existence.
Gym memberships instead of laborious digging in dirt. Online computer guided trading, instead of productive work that benefits others... emotionally detached from the food chains they are feeding from. Aloof parasitic "gods" being served by their minions, who survive off the morsels of the elites' scraps.
How are we any different to the rats in the famous overpopulation experiment? We have become just as intolerant of each other's interference in our lives and only care about competing for oil, the last morsels of food, and drops of drinking water to the point of becoming insanely aggressive predators, enabled by insane weaponry, not only for self defense, but with an insane justice system that supports murder via "stand your own ground" and "neutralizing perceived threats".
Cowards carrying guns, with the intent of instantly killing other cowards with guns. The evolution from brute force to clubs, to knives, to firearms, to semi-auto, fully-auto, assault rifles, larger magazines, larger calibers, RPGs, body armor, gangs, prepper militias, ancient tribalism 'perfected' to insanity.
Perfection is only a fleeting, ever changing perception.
Where is the all seeing divine god of perfect wisdom, the omnipotent creator of a perfect Universe, and the ultimate enforcer of justice?
Why would such an entity tolerate the existence of we disobedient human destroyers of his only known inhabited planet in the Universe? We are the cancerous consumers, instead of soul, created in his own image. Our widdle egotistical minds have simply created a mirage in our own image.
Fascinating philosophical exchange.

@kalayne6713 I hear you, Mate. But, MAGA isn't America, so please don't tar US with that broad brush.
Reganomics has underfunded US.
Bush lied about WMDs to control ME oil. Thousands of our troops were kill, maimed, and $Trillions wasted.
Citizens United has corrupted our elections with dark $.
Q-nuts are proliferating propaganda throughout right wing social media echo chambers.
MAGA & GQP are climate deniers and anti-vaxxers, who deny science. Our public schools are under attack, both ideologically and with ARs.
Kudos to Aussies, who voluntarily destroyed theirs after the 1st school shooting.
IMO, the radical right anarchists, white nationalists, and MAGA are our greatest enemies within.
The majority of We the People are fed up with tRumpism, MAGA, and their lot.
Their day of reckoning is only a few months away. The tables are turning.
We'll soon be as right as rain. Democracy will prevail. No worries. 🙄
All the best, Mate and thank you for disclosing your nationality, while participating in these comments. Although you can't vote, your POV is valuable.

@dogekingextraordinaire2725 I'm only noticing all the tRumptarded traitors, who are attacking the FBI, DoJ, and election officials for doing their jobs of upholding law and order.
You know NOTHING about what the majority of US patriots are OK with.
You're a blatant Q-nut, anti-US government conspirator, either the enemy within or an foreign enemy's paid troll.
Which government ops is spying upon which citizens?
FYI: Liberals, Conservatives, Republicans, and Democrats are ALL US citizens, who deserve respect and are supposed to behave respectfully.
Democrats are the only party that willing to defend our nation against tRump's corru[[t behavior, like sealing top secret classified nuclear weapons documents and selling them to our enemies.
tRumptards are traitors, who sound just like you and deserve absolutely no respect.

For the past 8 years, I have been debunking MAGA's lies in these comments.
For the past 3 years, I have been defending Biden's administration and the ruthless racial, homophobic, and personal attacks against KJP, underneath her briefings. Often, I was asked, "Who is paying you to defend Biden?"
Yesterday, I did the same on behalf of this MSNBC panel, covering the RNC's convention, against the mob of MAGA trolls, by asking them, " Who is paying you to betray our nation?"
To my dismay, MSNBC censured my comments and blocked me from continuing.
How am I supposed to actively oppose Project 2025 and a wannabe dictator, who is leading in the polls?

@kybalion5561 I'm happy to be proven wrong, rather than spread misinformation. But, as Sarah Palin said (probably her only sensible statement), "You can put lipstick on a pig, but it is still a pig."
This is not a complicated issue. Yang is blatantly promising voters that they will receive $1000 per month, if they vote for him. No matter how you slice and dice it, I call that bribing voters, plain and simple.
I spend most of my days researching political issues and the candidates. So, I assure you that I'm well informed and ignoring nothing. In fact, thanks to you, I just found a video of Tulsi endorsing UBI, after being asked in a town hall event, in Aug. But, this is not her primary 'sales pitch'.
I fully agree with the injustice of income inequality and that we live in a system that enables the big fish to gobble up the little fish. With globalization, robots, computerized stock trading, mass distribution of media, and so on, the days of hard work = prosperity are history. The average person, especially the less educated, can no longer compete against a stacked deck.
But, IMHO, UBI is not the answer, because it would create an unhealthy paradigm shift in public incentives to participate in being productive members of society. As a hermit, living modestly on social security and a pension. I know whereof I speak. At 67 years old, I've already made my contributions, but this is not how young folks with families should be living.
Okay, fine. So, I disagree with Tulsi's position on this. But, I'm not one of those single issue voters, like gun owners, blacks (aka people of color), evangelicals, etc. Tribalism is destroying our nation.
I'm listening to the hearts of candidates, their moral core. Tulsi and Bernie soar above the rest by these standards.
No doubt about it, Yang knows how to throw a drunken party. But, where is Yang's track record of public service to his nation? (chirp-chirp)
Aloha!

@rssand6840 More of a 'simpleton trap', IMO.
"Welp, there ya go, Just like the feller says, ''If there's a heartbeat, then it must be a live human', right Doc?"
Yes, the law is written to stop the abortions, asap, even if the woman wasn't aware of the pregnancy. If she sees her doctor after 6 weeks (how long to schedule the appt?) for confirmation, then the medical records could become evidence and no doctor would risk being imprisoned to abort her fetus. IOW, she's on her own and nothing had better go wrong.

IMHO, Kamala didn't fail. Ill-informed voters failed our nation.
Kamala's campaign was flawless, positive, energetic, well produced, and communicated excellent policies.
WELL DONE, MADAM POTUS! You hit the ground running at full steam ahead, but simply ran out of the limited time you were dealt.
Previously written:
For the 2nd time in my 72 year old life, I'm ashamed to be a US citizen.
The 1st time was when George W Bush was re-elected, after being AWOL during the 9/11 attacks, lying about WMDs to bomb innocent Iraqi civilians with forces of 'Shock and Awe' that destabilized all of the Middle East with 20years of senseless wars that depleted our economy, resulting in the Great Recession of 2008.
I honestly wish that I could move back to England, where I learned to behave with more civilized European manners. FYI MAGA fools, that's not possible because of immigration laws.
IMHO, today marks the downfall of America's greatness, ironically by a brainwashed, bas-ackwards MAGA cult of anarchy.

As an atheist, I'm appalled at the Evangelicals' ignorance of tRump's life of sin and irreverence towards pious disciplines, nor any other form of discipline, for that matter.
Obviously, these bible thumpers are oblivious to Revelation's description of the Anti-Christ.... not that I believe in any of that BS, of course. But, they all profess to believe in it, don't they. /smh
At least I can vaguely remember it from my childhood Sunday school propaganda days of old.
An evil being, rising up out of the water (swamp?), professing to be the 'chosen one' (hello~o!), while everyone is conned into believing in him (ypu, that's definitely don, the con), because of his dragon-speaking (is that you, Melania or Ivanka?) goat's magic act (tRumptards love chanting, right on queue at his blusterous, hyperbolic rallies).

@charlesljones2454 Performed his duties as AG, instead of cowering.
The DOJ is part of the Exceutive branch, independent from SCOTUS.
Biden, Garland's boss, doesn't interfere to avoid appearing politically motivated, despite tRump's lying allegations to the contrary.
Without being ordered, Garland refused to jeopardize himself and family. That's why he put Smith into the hot seat, but only after MAGA 'loyalists' infiltrated our House to sabotage it.
Then, once they were in place, tRump forced Garland's hand by announcing his campaign (for election immunity), immediately after the midterm election.
The House Jan 6 Committee did the DOJ's job of investigations, interviews, sworn witness testimonies, and produced 3 publicly broadcasted hearings of indisputable overwhelming evidence of tRump's criminality. Yet, Garland only turned a blind eye of acceptance.
tRump's a traitor.
Garland is his enabler, who could have stopped this MAGA madness 3 years ago.

So, you're saying that you approve of President Biden's BBB plan and want all of the benefits, but don't like watching the sausage being made and are already blaming the Dems because their 50/50 +1 Senate majority is incapable of mustering 10 more lousy votes from the Republicants, whose only agenda is ensuring that this administration fails to serve the needs of our nation?
"...corporate give away...'? Millions of good paying jobs!
'Obama's bailing out the banks"? "Too big to fail" was Bush's failure, which left Obama/Biden no choice. BTW, they set up a WS watchdog committee, headed by Liz Warren, to ensure that it would never happen again, which tRump eliminated.
"Fix lies in "News" Faux Spews?
"fix SCOTUS" McConnell packing SCOTUS with incompetent tRump appointees?
"fix gerrymandering, fix right to vote, make representation a reality" Red sates' election rigging to cheat Dem voters out of being counted?
"Dems need to show some real achievements..." Like saving our nation from becoming a dictatorship? Saving millions of lives by distributing sufficient doses to vaccinate every US citizen, within the 1st 6 months (regardless of those who reject their monumental efforts). Passed the $1.9 ARP stimulus bill, which has kept millions fed and sheltered within their own homes, instead of families being evicted into the streets? FYI, all of the above is resulting in the fastest recovery of any developed nation on Earth.
"I can only conclude the oligarchy will not be beaten." tRump is the only American oligarch that I know, pulling his strings on the GQP Congressional cowards, who still kowtow to kiss his ring. Why? Because he is threatening their jobs by funding tRumpist candidates to primary against them during the next midterms.
You really need to be more honest with yourself and the BS you're spewing.

Teenagers care about themselves.
Young adults care about jobs to support their immediate families.
Old grandparents understand that their time on Earth is limited. We care about the legacies we leave behind, and the well-being of future generations.
Narcissistic wannabe dictator VS life-long, decent, caring, public servant.
Yes, we care for our nation more than a notorious lying, cheating, twice impeached, pussy-grabbing, adulterous, mafioso mob boss, with 34 felony counts, including espionage, and still counting.
If today's youth support tRump, then our generation has failed in parental guidance.

@grapevinestoragescribner8518 Thank you for that thoughtful and respectful reply. It is neither condescending nor self-righteous.
While I agree with many of your points, especially your initial sentence and that spirituality can be practiced without being limited within the boundaries of a specific religion, I still don't see any difference between mankind and other animals.
Modern science can detect atomic particles and witness past events while scanning the universe. But, the immortal soul, spirits, and gods can only be recognized via faith. So easily modern man has dismissed Zeus, Thor, Athena and all other gods from ancient history. Yet, many still cling to the belief that there is only one omnipotent god. Then who is Satan, if not another immortal god of evil?
Again, even within our own minds, there must be a struggle between good and evil, the ebb and flow between the opposing forces of yin and yang.
But, neither yin nor yang need the invisible god nor Satan to exist anymore than action vs reaction. The harder one pushes a swing, the more it will push back in return.
Mankind is hung up on some misguided notion that there is some mysterious divine purpose for all things. But, we must be responsible for ourselves and determine our own purpose and goals. Our self worth is dependent upon our own accomplishments, which are only reflections of our endeavors. Others will judge our significance, based upon their own awareness.
By definition, The Hermit rejects the misguided judgments of mankind and walks his own path. Life can be as simple or complicated as we make it. I choose simple facts. The Buddha taught that happiness doesn't depend upon wealth nor possessions, but by living respectfully. We can either accept reality or do our part to make it better. This is the ultimate path and purpose of one's life. Why do we need some god to explain that to us?
Best regards, Sir.

@taskcasburn6086 Hey ass-hole! I said nothing about the cause. But, like most Trumptards, you start by being offensive then evade the issue by going on a partisan right-wing rant against Obama. It's so easy to criticize things and people that you don't understand, then engage in immature name calling.
Like your master, Trumptards believe that the POTUS is the ruler of the world and is capable of imposing complete control over other nations. Just bomb them into submission, right? Wrong. There are borders, sovereign nations, international laws, and elections, Bubba.
Yes, the situation with China has been brewing for decades, because Americans like to buy inexpensive junk. Then, we trow the junk away, send it back to China, which recycles our trash and sells it back to us.
Americans need to get on board with recycling their own trash, producing and utilizing green energy, and mitigating the destruction of life on Earth via global warming.
But, Trumptards don't even accept scientific data. Trumptards believe in a spoiled little rich kid, who grows up with a silver spoon in his mouth ($450,000/month childhood allowance), and becomes an irresponsible playboy (abusing women), wasting money on lavish parties, goes bankrupt numerous times, dodges the military by bribing a doctor, runs hardworking subcontractors out of business (refusal to pay bills), over exaggerates his wealth while devaluing his assets to evade paying taxes, consistently lies like a dog, discredits our press and intelligent agencies, generates fake news (a term he coined) to mislead the ignorant so that he can buddy up to our adversaries and disrespect our allies.
Even after all of that, you still believe that this narcissistic con man will do anything to help our less fortunate citizens who have become unemployed due to 'progress'.
You want solutions? Let's start with getting the Fraud in Chief out of the White House. Send his ass to prison, where he belongs.
Facts: Clinton balanced the books. Bush tanked our economy with the Iraq war, based upon lies (nothing to do with 9/11). $5 Trillion and thousands of innocent lives wasted. Obama save our auto industry and was forced to bail out Wall Street. Romney said to let Detroit fall. (Detroit paid back the bailout money). Obama devised the sequester, to force Congress to compromise on a budget, which reduced our deficit from $1.2 Trillion to $800 Billion. Trump has blown up our budget to ~$2 Trillion deficit.
BUT, DON'T STOP DRINKING THE KOOL-AID!

I've worked on heavy metal music videos & I can guarantee that Maggat Traitor Goon is too stupid to have produced this video.
IMO, it was funded by right wing extremists, who paid some half-assed neo-Nazi production company to edit the content together for her. She approved the final scene of herself acting like a model on a catwalk.
I replayed it @25% peed, trying to find a message, but there was none. It was like most other metal music videos, all noise with 0 messaging.
This smells like the same dark sinister work as tRump' recent B&W threatening video. This looks like something that Don Jr & his unhinged Guilfoyle girl would do to impress Daddy's cult.
Stay tuned for Blowbutt's drop, along with Gym Jordan's, Gaetz, Hawley's and the other fascist seditious conspirators in the House who think this BS is rad enough to attract young, rebellious anarchists, right wing militias, and Satanic tweakers into their cult.

@tonyroma9046 Well, perhaps this conversation is not a total waste of time, after all. Apparently, once we get past the prejudices and drop the divisive labels, we're neither all that different, crazy, nor rabid. Simply 2 peas in the same pod.
IMO, Hillary had devoted a lot of public service to our country and had earned a lot of international respect among our allies. Therefore, she was the most qualified candidate for the job and would have continued with Obama's agenda, which was fiscally and morally responsible. Having said that, IMO, she is too politically wishy-washy to have been an independent leader, beyond special interests' influence (the war machine, etc). As we now know, she was demonized by right wing media (Benghazi) and voters were victimized by Russian troll farm propaganda to benefit Trump. IMO, Trumptards have simply been brainwashed by BS. Hillary and Trump are in the same wannabe 'World's Dynasty' group. Trump's mob is attempting to make him King of the World, with his heirs already in place to inherit his kingdom and crown.
Nancy and Chuck are doing their best to defend our democratic republic and enforce our Constitutional laws of oversight. Unfortunately, Nancy didn't go for Trump's jugular vein, and avoided criminal charges, because of Mueller's accepted assertion of Presidential Immunity against criminal behavior.
After defying Constitutional accountability, Trump would follow through with his suggestions of ending term limits, if re-elected. Coup d'etat complete, w/o firing a shot. That's why I call him and his mob traitors. So, which are you? Do you want to restore our democracy or trade it for a dictatorship, led by an egomaniacal idiot?
Obama did as much as he could, considering the opposition of Moscow Mitch, et al. But, that's all water under the bridge. We need to keep our eyes on the ball and stop falling for Trump's distracting tweets. Every one of them is Trump's premeditated propaganda, a con job to directly manipulate the minds of his supporters. He has them trained to act like circus animals at his rallies, performing precisely on queue.
Yet, you call me deranged by TDS. "El contraire.", I say.

@tonyroma9046 Yes, it has taken me a lifetime of experiences to become The Hermit. I'm comfortable with/in myself and confidant in my beliefs. So, I try to judge reality as it is.
The best con artists are deceptively nice and sound very reasonable. I've learned to take a good look inside every gift horse's mouth. I'll believe straight talk from an asshole any day over that of a boot licker salesman.
If I remember correctly, when questioned by a coal miner, "How will coal miners feed their families?", he candidly replied, "Find another occupation." That's called honesty.
His point regarding, "You didn't build that, yourself." Was that, businesses need transportation, communications, and infrastructure, provided by taxpayer money. Furthermore, businesses rely upon dedicated, reliable employees to do the physical labor. Even Elon Musk relies upon these things. It was a campaign rebuttal against Romney's assertion that 'businesses are people too, my friend'.
Did you intend to say that you want more terms (not limited to only two, as Trump suggests) or more term limits applied to Congressional seats? God forbid the first and makes sense for the second, provided the baby doesn't get thrown out with the bath water every few years.
I've attempted to celebrate our similarities and find common ground, but you won't have it. At least we achieved a civil level of communication.
Perhaps, 4 years would be more appropriate, if we're still around. Please, help defend our democratic republic.
Stay safe. Peace😎

@iamnotamushroom2880 Yes, that was the bipartisan compromise, Honeypot. That's how our government works.
Ukraine is in the middle of being invaded and people are dying. They had already gotten rid of their nuclear arsenal, based upon the agreement that the west would defend them from Russia. That's no joke.
Global commitments matter, tRumptard.
If the west fails to support Ukraine, then Poland is next, as Putin has revealed. Poland is a member of the NATO alliance, which would draw our military into WW III, which Biden has avoided by keeping US troops out of Ukraine.
That's why We the People elected him to be our Commander in Chief, instead of Putin's puppet, aka mafioso don, the 2-bit con.
You don't know JS about global diplomacy. So, let our POTUS do his job.

NO!
Garland did NOT appoint Jack Smith to provide distance from President Biden. Garland did it because he is a coward, who wanted to distance himself personally from the vengeance of Mafioso Don, the 2-bit con.
Garland cowered away from prosecuting tRump, even after the House Select Committee had performed the DOJ's duties of investigating and conducting the hundreds of sworn testimonies from witnesses involved in the lead up to Jan 6,2021, compiled the indisputable overwhelming criminal evidence, and presented it to the public with 3 televised hearings.
But, the cowardly Garland only turned a blind eye until tRump forced his hand AFTER MAGA had succeeded to infiltrate our House with his 'loyalist' seditious conspirators to sabotage our House and Biden's administration.
Then, only AFTER tRump announced his 2024 campaign, for Executive immunity, Garland simply protected himself and family from Mafioso Don's retribution by putting Jack Smith and family in jeopardy.
If Garland had only performed his duties, immediately after 2021's attack upon our Capitol, our nation wouldn't be in its current state of MAGA still being alive and on the brink of civil war.
TRUMP'S A TRAITOR!!
GARLAND'S HIS COWARDLY ENABLER!!
LOCK THEM UP!!

@danielplainview5085 Not going back to tRump's gaslighting that killed 400k of his own anti-vaxxers.
Not going back to the TP hoarding, empty grocery shelves, supply chain disruptions, kids being home schooled, their parents unemployed, businesses shutdown, no PPEs to protect hospital workers, refrigerated trailers full of dead bodies because the mortuaries were full. Wall Street stock values and retirement pensions collapsing.
Biden/Harris provided SNAP nutrition for kids, stimulus checks to support the unemployed, eviction moratoriums to keep families in their homes, PPEs for hospitals, schools, and small businesses, low interest loans to keep mom & pop afloat, nationwide distributions of vaccines for every US citizen who wanted to live,...
Thanks to Biden/Harris, our post-pandemic economy is the strongest in the world, inflation has dropped to normal levels, unemployment is the lowest in 1/2 a century.
Gas prices are reasonable, considering that Russian supplies are being sanctioned.
Harris is going after opportunistic corporate price gouging to reduce living expenses.
tRump only has a 'concept'.
Stop your whining.

@gordontemple9257 Oh BFS!! Dems are the only ones fighting for people of color, you interfering Limey. Biden's administration represents the most racially diverse leadership our nation has ever known. The other side of the political aisle consists of white supremacy nationalists, radical armed militias of anarchists, and an authoritarian mafioso mob mentality for intimidation.
Dems are NOT pontificating over filibusters. Their BBB agenda pushes the USA towards a more responsible, sustainable, and independent future, which is being obstructed by Republicant's stonewalled filibusters, which require a 60% majority to pass much needed legislation. Given only a 50/50 Congressional split - 2 DINOs, Dems simply don't have the political power to force through anything that the GQP doesn't already endorse. IOW, it's their way or nothing.
There's NO similarities nor common ground between the two parties. One is filled with productive patriots, who are bending over backwards to debate and compromise for vital legislation.
The Republicants have no agenda, except for uniting behind a thin-skinned, corrupt, authoritarian, wannabe dictator, whose only purpose is to undermine our government to appease his puppet master, Putin.
Only the Republicans need to purge their party of tRumpism and his BS undemocratic 'loyalist' Q-nut 'Freedom Caucus', because the GOP of 'law and order' is already dead. The MAGATs have already devoured it's rotting flesh. Only the lifeless, dried up political skeletons of have-beens still remain in that party.
Yes, old school Republicans need to simply die off or evolve, instead of doubling down on devolution.
But, the Dems are the only defenders of our nation's democratic republic. IMO, Pelosi, Schumer, Biden, and the Jan 6th Committee members are true living American heroes, including Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
tRump's hijacked GQP are mostly traitors.
Now, please stick to your own side of the political pond and stay TF out of our US politics, Englishman.

@tinasmith1391 Well, yeah... That's exactly why 82 million people turned out in force to elect Joe Biden. Wasn't that his primary campaign platform, "Vote for me, Folks, and I'll take away everything you own, including the shirt off your backs!"
Without even being rallied, they all shouted, "Take all my possessions, Joe!"
FYI, I'm 68 yrs old, comfortably retired on social security and a life long pension. I own my 4 bdrm 2 bath home and no one is taking any of that away.
Where do you people get this BS drummed into your heads? Is that what tRump is spewing at his rallies?

Yes, the forces of Yin vs Yang are strong in China. Yang being the negative affects of unbridled air pollution. Yin being China's dominance in EVs, lithium batteries, IC manufacturing, robotics, wind generators, PV panels, and traditional sustainable farming.
China is literally leaving US in their dust, with their government funded R&D and corporate investments.
Xi simply nods his head and his subjects bow in approval.
In 'Merica, one party says "GO!" and the other half says, "Hell NO!" while 60% is required to break a filibuster before any action can happen. /smh
Soon, the filthy rich billionaires will be walking around in air conditioned environmental suits, while shouting, "Drill Baby, drill!"

@RobbyO-p5p You believe social media propaganda above facts.
Illegal border crossings have plummeted over the past year.
tRump killed the strictest bipartisan border security bill in US history, which would fund more resources for more BP agents, asylum screeners, drug detection technologies, surveillance cameras, etc.
The #1 easiest way to sneak into the USA is:
a) Get a visitor's visa.
b) Fly to any of dozens international airports.
c) Overstay the visa's termination date.
No paying cartel human smugglers, no dangerous jungles, no 2000 mile treks, w/o food, water, toilets, nor $.
Your imaginary scenario is hyperbolic Faux BS.

@c.a.savage5689 Unfair? Weren't Kings the lords of their kingdoms, who had to be obeyed or be drawn and quartered? James simply put his kingdom's rules into a book, for everyone's reference. No excuses for ignorance.
Latin can be translated to mean virtually anything. "Well, it literally says 'tree', but I believe they really meant a "cross".
Mary, Queen of Scots, had her own 'translation', as did many other 'Christian' sects. If they are all accurate, then what's all the fighting been about?
Never said anything about the 'beautiful' penmanship of ole English lore. They are masters of their own language, full of innuendo and double intent.
Even today, English lyricists are the best in the world. Pink Floyd's deep insights of life are far more enlightening than your holy book. Check out "Time", "Us and Them", "Dark Side of the Moon", "The Machine" "The Wall (double album)".

@12345patbet FYI, I'm now an atheist, who read your bible, as an innocent Sunday schooler, choirboy, and regional Bible quiz contestant. I inevitably matured enough to understand that it is full of scientifically provable fallacies, because it was written by flawed authoritarian men.
Yes, @davidbible is 100% correct, according to Jesus' own teachings, anyone can sin, then be forgiven for their sins, which relieves all guilt and accountability.
"Neither do I condemn thee, now go and sin no more."
Got yourself in a jam? Pray for angels to swoop down to save your sorry ass.
Commit treason against the US government? No problem. Evangelicals will forgive you and elect you for POTUS.
Don't pretend to know the minds of those of whom you neither know nor understand, ye misguided Child of Santa Claus indoctrination.

@SeanusAurelius I'm your atheist huckleberry. I see more love, caring, and higher moral ethics in the animal kingdom than among most religious believers of blind faith..
Animals don't kill each other for pleasure, only for food and self-defense of their families and hunting grounds. Predators and prey have maintained their own populations, until mankind started shooting. For that matter, worms and maggots are more vital to the Earth than mankind, who consumes, destroys, and pollutes, while feeding an insatiable ego in its lust for sex.
Let's talk about what your god thinks about the ruthless killing going on between Israel and Gaza. Their same god commanded "Thou shall not kill." So, Muslims, Jews, and Christians have been killing in its name for the past 2000 years.
Let's talk about Priests molesting children.
Let's talk about what the Puritans did to Native Americans, while stealing their lands.
My basis for ethics? Being mindful of the impact of my existence upon the precious natural world, the only known life in the Universe.
"Do not harm," is my life's guide.
Science has proven that the Earth wasn't created in 7 days, 'Adam and Eve' evolved from the same primordial slime as all other life forms.
If your god knows all things, then he knew that no human would resist the temptation of eating a delicious apple. It wasn't a test. It was only a setup, given your beliefs.
No god wrote the bible. Flawed men did to control others lives or be struck down by lightning.
You can't prove the existence of your god, without referring to flawed writings.
"Eye for an eye."
"Turn thy other cheek."
Which words were from your god?
Where is the ethical morality in supporting a notorious life-long, lying, (spew the from his mouth), cheating , bullying (inherit the earth?), whoremongering, tax evading (yield unto Caesar...), billionaire braggart (...camel through the eye of a needle) and wannabe fascist dictator?
Your myths are nonsense.
Science is absolutely sound and saves lives. It has evolved alongside higher education, physics, and brain capacity.
Why are religious zealots praying for the end of your god's only creation of life on Earth? Because of some drug induced nightmare of the apocalypse being gods will?
Mankind should be the Earth's maintainers, instead of its cancerous destroyer.

@Itsgoooonenooowwww This is exactly the unpatriotic MAGA behavior and lies that I'm talking about.
You demean me for defending my nation, disrespect our POTUS in front of the world, and lie about his incredible accomplishments to restore our lives, economy, and save our democracy.
It is my time and effort, not yours, and I'm proud to defend my POTUS and nation. Why don't you try it sometime?
FYI, I'm a retired 72 year old white man, who spends most of my days monitoring the world, and the BS House Committee meetings, which have wasted $billions failing to impeach President Biden.
Since being hijacked and infiltrated by MAGA 'lloyalist' saboteurs, this has been the least productive Congress in US history.
Woke TF up!

Yes, AOC. That villain's hand IS creeping up to grab you... just as soon as he files his 2024 campaign paperwork. 😱
The younger, more intelligent, popular primetime Fox celebrity already has tRump's cult of Q-nuts eating out of his hand. Tuckins already knows how to play them and will whip tRump's supporters out from under him, as Jack Smith sends 'the don' to prison.💨💨
Murdock would have his revenge for losing $787.5 + Smartmatic's settlement.😈
Biden's 41% approval ratings aren't gonna cut it.🙄
Who is the DNC's young, brilliant champion standing in the wings, ready to jump in to save our nation from becoming a Putin/Murdock oligarchy, Hmm...?👀👀
Buttigieg🤔, Psaki🤔, AOC 🤷♂?!!

@meghanschuler4739 That must be it! I'm so weak minded that the media just leads me around by the nose. Yeah, The Hermit lives inside a big blue silo, where I only hear "people who literally have a vendetta against anyone from the right".
I can't stand listening to that hyper-divisive right wing rhetoric and condescending tone, especially when it is coming from naive Trumptards, who can't even recognize a thief although his hand is already in your pocket.
I don't need your lecture about what Republicans and conservative mean. I watch this political BS everyday and Trump is destroying our nation, is a puppet of Putin's and is trying his damnest to rig the election, just like 2016. Trump always cheats; that's the only way he can win. Trump is so obsessed with winning.
His Post Master gangsta was caught crippling the postal system, just to delay mail in ballots. His own people obviously planted the 'discarded' ballots for Trump that he rants about. Trump has already primed the pump by predicting that the election will be rigged (because he is the rigger), so that he won't be forced to admit being defeated. On January 20th, Trump will refuse to leave the WH. 4 retired Generals have written a letter to General Mattis, warning him of this very same concern.
No patriot can support Trump, because Trump is a traitor to our DEMOCRATIC republic. FYI, the USA is not just a democracy OR republic; it is BOTH.

@trombone113 "the Continental Marines of the American Revolutionary War, formed by Captain Samuel Nicholas by a resolution of the Second Continental Congress on 10 November 1775, to raise two battalions of Marines."
"At the end of the American Revolution, both the Continental Navy and Continental Marines were disbanded in April 1783. The institution itself would not be resurrected until 11 July 1798. At that time, in preparation for the Quasi-War with France, Congress created the United States Marine Corps. Marines had been enlisted by the War Department as early as August 1797 for service in the new-build frigates authorized by the Congressional "Act to provide a Naval Armament" of 18 March 1794."
IOW, the Continental Marines, of which you reference were not a part of the yet to be formed USA government and had nothing to do with the 2nd amendment, because the US Constitution wasn't written until 1776. The US Congress formed the official US Marine Corps in 1798. So what?
As I stated, in 1776 when our Founding Fathers wrote the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution in 1789, our newly formed nation was without a formal military, so the 2nd Amendment was provided to allow individuals to protect themselves.
"The Second Amendment (1791) protects the right of individuals to keep and bear arms. Although the Supreme Court has ruled that this right applies to individuals, not merely to collective militias, it has also held that the government may regulate or place some limits on the manufacture, ownership and sale of firearms or other weapons. Requested by several states during the Constitutional ratification debates, the amendment reflected the lingering resentment over the widespread efforts of the British to confiscate the colonists' firearms at the outbreak of the Revolutionary War. Patrick Henry had rhetorically asked, shall we be stronger, "when we are totally disarmed, and when a British Guard shall be stationed in every house?"
What gives you the impression that I have any communistic ideas? I'm happy to debate issues, but I'm tired of listening to right wing extremist rhetoric and childish name calling.
Frankly, I could care less about guns nor the issue of 2nd amendment rights. I don't own one, don't want one, and don't hang around people who carry them. Therefore, it is literally no big deal.
My primary issue is defending our nation against Trump's mob. No, I'm not wearing a foil hat, I've been watching and have become very aware of Trump's agenda, which would destroy our nation.
Left vs right, conservative vs liberal, etc, etc are all petty differences, of which are only the status quo of politics. More than anything, I'd like those days to continue (but more productively, of course)
So, lets drop all of the divisiveness and discuss why you still support Trump, in spite of >200,000 COVID deaths, his constant lies, being an international embarrassment, and the NY mafioso godfather.

@trombone113 First of all, thank you for your service to our nation. For that reason I would like to respectfully reply to your comments.
Military service says a lot about a man, like having adjusted to a regimented lifestyle of discipline and training to become an efficient killing machine. These things are literally drilled into you minds, until it becomes your identity because you have committed your life towards self defense and offence. It's almost like you guys are popped out of a single mold. Right?
But, you know nothing about The Hermit, do you? That's why you've only thrown a bunch of right wing bullshit in my direction to see what sticks. Well, it's not just an alias. I AM a 68 year old retired hermit, with no family nor friends, unless you count as one in passing. I'm affiliated with no political party, nor social group. In fact, we have mutually excluded each other. IMO, mankind became misguided when money was invented for middlemen to nibble away at the 'pie'. "Suffer not those who would sell the fruits of your labors for only words." Then, the industrial revolution kicked into high gear, along with environmental destruction and raping the earth for profit, regardless of the long term consequences. The mindlessness of mankind is literally causing the end of most life on earth.
We have exploited the earth, animals, and each other for hundreds of years. Now, we need to use our ingenuity and technology to reverse the damage we have caused.
This is not a political issue, it's a matter of being responsible for the continuance of future generations. IOW, we need to go back to the future. So, you tell me, Trombone, am I a progressive techie, supporting someone else's 'Green New Deal"; or am I a conservative, concerned with conserving nature, wildlife, clean water and air? For that matter, why don't conservatives support conserving natural resources, instead of fighting for oil and coal fossil fuels?

@trombone113 "their country as they know it." As in, "their neck of the woods"? Within the US constitution, you can't redefine the USA as 'my back yard' and claim that it is a constitutional right. As you say, we have Federal and State funded military units, providing national security.
"preventing a tyrannical government from taking those God given freedoms laid out in the Bill of Rights away from the people." There you go, making things up again. There are no 'God given freedoms' for a start... not in our constitution, nor in reality. So, let's not argue over fairy tales and myths. As I previously commented, the purpose of the 2nd Amendment was to not allow a foreign government to confiscate firearms, as the British had attempted. So, yes it literally provides the right to own and bear arms.
BTW, just for the record, no Democrat has ever tried to take away guns nor an individual's 2nd amendment rights, however there have been attempts to limit the size of clips and bump stocks. IMO, guns aren't the root of mental impairment, but they are just as lethal in the hands of a torqued out tweaker.
The problem is brainwashing kids with shoot'em up video games, idolizing Hollywood 'action heros', and drug gang violence. (generally speaking)
But, I digress.

Now, I travel the world on the Internet and have a very active social life debating Trumptards on YT every day. Don't need to physically travel, because no matter where I go, I'm already there.
Now, why is that any of your business and is there some stupid point that you're trying to make?

@lenaadams786 The key word that you keep using is 'illegal'.
NO ONE is advocating ILLEGAL immigration, including Dems.
Asylum refugees must go through the LEGAL vetting process, before being allowed to stay in the US permanently.
Harris negotiated with most Latin American countries to have asylum officials located in those countries, instead of paying cartels to smuggling them across our border ILLEGALLY, only to be denied their asylum applications and sent back to wherever they came from.
THIS is far more humane than tRump's leaving them stranded in primitive camps along the Mexican side of the border, without sanitation,, water, food, and easy prey for the cartels to traffic them, and enslave them with paying off huge debts, working for years in slaughterhouses.
HUMANE treatment of HUMAN BEINGS is the difference between tRump and Harris.
WHY IS THAT SO DIFFICULT TO COMPREHEND?

Gee, thanks Smerconish. Biden and the world needed to be reminded of the worst visuals on archive over top of your 'Horrible Biden' narrative. WTF is wrong with you?
Stuff happens, Biden's administration is dealing with all of it as it happens. Thy didn't create ANY of these problems, but they are the ones solving them.
Yes, it's legislative crunch time, following a series of bad events, so yeah, let's all kick the old man while he's down, after he has already saved literally hundreds of thousands of lives with the Afghan evacuations (US citizens still able to leave) and his very rapid rollout of vaccinations.
Just count him out, literally before the (infrastructure) count.
Yet, the corrupt tRump has the undying loyality of his GQP Congressional Republicants, standing together as a stone wall of opposition. Why is MSM not shaming them instead of piling on top of Biden? smh

Traitor Hawley says, "Some 'whistleblower' is making allegations, we don't know what they are, so now it's up to the Biden administration to show US the evidence." /smh
That's not how the DoJ works, Pal.
Innocent until PROVEN guilty.
5th Amendment right against self-incrimination.
Executive Immunity.
That's 3 strikes. Now GTF outta here, until you have something more than someone's hearsay on social media said something against our POTUS, tRumptards.
Unfortunately, we've already seen the House Q-nuts wasting millions of taxpayers' $ on investigating right wing conspiracy BS.
They'll do the same with this, in order to feed their trolls to keep the gossip going.
They don't know how to govern. So, their strategy is to invent problems to complain about (border, abortion, birth control, inflation, Hunter's laptop...), showboat in front of a camera, and trade taxpayers' revenues for the filthy rich's dark super PAC donations. Both bending over for the other, while neglecting the needs of We the People.

@paulgibbon5991 That was my point. However, there is also respect for the 82 million majority of voters, who elected this administration to lead US. They, we, have the right to not have our desired agendas obstructed by MAGA.
There is also a thing called truth, which has been hijacked by 'alternative' truth, 'fake' news, and foreign Q-nut conspiracies in toxic echo chambers of social media platforms.
Weak minds and sheelpe of blind faith gobble it up and believe the most extreme rhetoric. Then they parrot and proliferate the lies.
It is a positive feedback loop of negativity that is destroying our nation from within.
"Loose lips sink ships."
This is unbridled free speech gone horribly wrong, as MAGA demonstrates every day..
They are anarchists, deliberately sabotaging OUR elected POTUS and disgracing our nation in front of the world.
Europeans have civility, empathy, and respect for others. We have become increasingly uncivilized, violent, disrespectful, and narcissistic. But, it's all legal, eh?
MAGA must be stopped before they start another civil war.

SMH same old BS blame game. I appreciate Pamela Brown's efforts to debunk this Republicant propaganda with the facts.
#1: Inflation under Biden's leadership has minimized the efects of global inflation upon the US.
#2: Biden's responsible spending has trimmed $1.2 TRILLION off the Federal budget.
#3: Biden has NOT restricted oil production, but has requested an increase. The only limit is insufficient refining capacity to meet increased consumer demand.
#4: Biden has been releasing oil from our reserves to supplement supply to reduce prices for consumers.
#5: Biden's PPP, ARP, and stimulus spending has saved millions of families from being evicted and living on the streets, reduced child poverty by 40%, provided the equipment required for schools and small businesses to reopen.
#6: Biden's 10 year BBB agenda and the infrastructure bill puts America on the path to a more responsible, more independent, and more sustainable future for generations to come.
#7: The Republicants are tRump's cowardly puppets, servants of oil corporations, and corrupt liars being funded by dark superPAC funding. They have no solutions and are deliberately sabotaging Congressional procedures.
Republicants have NOTHING to offer, but more failed tinkle on Reaganomics that have resulted in >$32 Trillion in national debt.
DON'T BELIEVE RIGHT WING PROPAGANDA. THEY ARE PLAYING US FOOLS FOR GQP FOOLS IN ORDER TO HOLD ONTO POWER.

Exactly! Rosie O'Donnell used to call him 'The Donald', obviously because, even decades ago, she knew that he is a mafioso 'don'. He never denies it and even signals it to others, with cutsie demeaning gangsta nicknames, when referring to his opponents; Crooked Hillary, Pocahontas, Crazy Bernie, Lyin' Ted, Li'l Marco, Sleepy Joe, ...
The don trusts only his immediate family of heirs, who are also his only trusted advisors.
The don always demands oaths of loyalty to him, personally, which are sealed with his infamous 'embrace' to initiate them into his mob. Once in, there's no getting out, without suffering the godfather's ruthless vengeance. That's why Republicans kowtow to appease their 'Chosen One.'
He surrounds himself with attorneys to intimidate whomever gets in his way. He surrounds himself with henchmen to do his dirty work of bullying others. They always take the fail to protect their don.
He never incriminates himself by saying what he really means, "We've gotta fight like hell to save our nation." That sounds very patriotic, but actually means, "Strom the Capitol to save my Executive Immunity from criminal prosecution.
BTW, whenever tRump uses the word 'nation' he is actually referring to himself.
TRUMP'S A TRAITOR!!
LET'S GO JACK!!
LOCK THEM UP!!

Great interviews, Andrea. Excellent questions!
I agree with everything that Senator King said and am able to see straight through the gaslighting of the Republican Policy Committee's Chairman, Roy Blunt. His BS mincing of states' rights to imposing voter suppression laws to take away the majority's choice is so smooth that it flows like diarrhea. It's very interesting to hear what's happening straight from our leaders' mouths.
Having said that, I couldn't care less about the biased opinions of self appointed political pundits and talking heads, telling me how to process what I've just seen and second guess what will 'inevitably' happen over what this administration coulda, woulda, shoulda be doing, as if they have greater knowledge, more experience, and better intel. Besides, based upon messaging integrity, one side of the aisle doesn't deserve equal air time, IMO.

Biden's policy on Israel/Gaza has been 'perfectly clear'.
Israel is a sovereign nation, being attacked by Iranian terrorists. So, we support the fight to defend our ally.
But, Netanyahu has gone rogue, murdering innocent Palestinian women and children. Both Biden and Blinken have made every effort to stop Netanyahu's revenge driven illegal genocide, which have been ignored.
So, conditions needed to be enforced, in the form of withholding weaponry from Israel.
Everything Biden does is with mindful consideration of both sides, while discouraging war, death, and destruction. That's what great leaders do.

Our nation is in trouble. The world is in trouble. People are dying and being murdered, yet these POS' only want to create more trouble by undermining our government, which is supposed be protecting US.

First of all, with Presidential authority, tRump made a promise to give Afghanistan back to the Taliban. That is supposed to be honored, in order to be a globally respected nation that upholds its commitments.
If Biden had reneged on tRump's treasonous promises, our drawn down troop presence in Afghanistan was insufficient to control the backlash.
So, Biden had the 'choice' of honoring tRump's promises and pulling out of a 20 year old ongoing commitment of blood and $T sacrifices OR cutting Bush's failure to capture Bin Laden, scapegoat the Taliban, and failed mission creep of nation building.
Biden made the right choice to get out, while the getting was as good as it would ever get.
Yes, 13 US troops bravely stood their posts, even after being warned of an imminent upon Abbey Gate. That's what troops sign up to do. Politicizing it will never bring them back. How many troops' lives have been saved, thanks to Biden making the right choice?
How many US troops have died because of Pappy and 'W's decades' worth of wrong choices in the Middle East?

Tramp's raw rare earth deal with Zelenskyy, w/o defense commitments:
#1: Pull the age old mafia protection racket scam on Zelenskyy. Either pay up or we'll let Putin "do whatever the hell he wants."
#2: Prior to signing the agreement, phone Putin to play one side against the other to exploit being the middleman for maximum profit.
#3: Putin counter offers with giving Tramp all of the rare earth minerals under Russian occupied Ukrainian territory, in exchange to simply turning a blind eye to Putin's invasion.
#4: Sabotage Zelenskyy's signing the 'peace deal' by publicly attacking, berating, and accusing Zelenskyy of being a dictator and responsible for the invasion, plus 'gambling with starting WWIII'.
It was all premeditated and deliberately staged. JD Vance had no authority to even speak to Zelenskyy, much less pick a fight in public. The presser should have been scheduled after the reception dinner, final negotiations, and to broadcast the ultimate signing of the 'peace deal'.
Our global allies watched in horrible disbelief, while Putin celebrated with a bottle of vodka.

The other side of this coin is that most of these MAGA supporters have chosen to live from paycheck to paycheck and spending their last dime every week... on booze, ammo, or whatever their priorities dictate.
That's why they are so disillusioned over the economy, yet blame everything/one, but themselves... especially President Biden. Ironically, they are literally biting the same hand that's been taking care of US during the pandemic shutdowns. Yet, call Dems 'socialists' or 'communists'. Education isn't their forte'.
Every loser has an excuse.
Full disclosure: I'm 72, worked all my life, also lived from one paycheck to the next, and just paid off my 4 bdrm home on 5 acres of foothill property., with this month's earned Social Security benefits.
Never missed any payments, no excuses, and very proudly support Biden's caring, mindful, no malarkey administration.

Abel Bort There are effective vaccines against the Spanish flu, which is no longer a threat. Yes, COVID-19 originated in China, but Trump refused to call it by it's proper name. Instead, he called it derogatory anti China names like 'kung flu', the 'China virus', or 'Wuhan Flu'. He also campaigned on China's trade policies, accusing them of stealing our jobs. It was only done to deliberately incite racial hatred within his white supremacist base. Now, they are attacking Asian communities, because all Asians are the same in their eyes.
Personally, I blame Trump of being corrupt con man who succeeded in brainwashing nearly half of the nation into believing the Big Lie about election fraud. That manifested into the attempted coup d'etat on Jan 6th to overthrow our government.
Trump and his enablers are traitors to our nation.

YO ELON! THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW...
THERE IS AND NEVER HAS BEEN AN OPEN BORDER POLICY!!
THAT IS ONLY THE RIGHT WING MEDIA BS MESSAGING THAT HAS CAUSED THE PROBLEM.
What's not getting out:
tRump's 2016 campaign was all about fearmongering over the border.
"Our border is wide open with illegals, drugs, and human traffickers pouring in. I'm going to build a big beautiful wall that Mexico will pay for...blah blah blah" This is what tRump and Republicans have been daily broadcasting to the world, for the past 7 years.
Instead of doing their jobs in DC, Congressmen in suits have been staging Faux shit shows at the border. In the middle of the night, they have literally been demonstrating to the world how easily immigrants are crossing the Rio Grande (while outside the camera's FOV, BP is apprehending those same illegals).
These Congressional right wing tRumptards and Fox are not ignorant of the fact that the world watches American TV, even dubbed into their own native languages. They have deliberately and effectively been sending an invitation to the world, while Dem administrations are in power, for political gain. They only want to complain about the problem that they're causing, instead of solving the problem.
Whenever poor, cartel threatened people see the Republican's BS, they head for the land of wealth and freedom.
The more MSM broadcasts this BS, the more illegal immigrants come, profiting the cartel human smugglers and American slave shops who work them in exchange for filthy rooms and boarding. They owe the cartel traffickers thousands of $ for 'travel expenses', a debt they might pay off over decades of labor.
Republicans don't want to solve the problem. They only want to play ignorant blame games, as this video demonstrates. Dems have been pushing Congress to pass "comprehensive immigration reform legislation" for decades, but Republicans have refused. This is the problem.
Furthermore, voters fall for the right wingers' BS fearmongering and believe that voting for these corrupt Republicans will solve the problem. Otherwise, they would legislate effective solutions, but they have no ideas.
Now, we have tRump's 'loyalist' incompetent Q-nuts deliberately sabotaging our House, solely to appease mafia don's insatiable desire for vengeance. These few Q-nuts are threatening to default on paying their own bills, threatening to shutdown the US government, threatening to defund vital agencies, and threatening to impeach President Biden, who has guided US through the pandemic shutdowns and the consequences of tRump's incompetence.
These Congressional tRumptards are incompetent traitors, who will be purged from Congress in 2024. US citizens are already sick of their chaos and incompetence.
Last but not least, Elon needs to stick to inventing amzing technology and STAY TF AWAY FROM SOCIAL MEDIA AND POLITICS!

@watchfulrasputin "My bad." is an expression used by kids, who are admitting that they have done something wrong. In other words, my 2 year old self was admitting to not understanding Crimean history. It was intended as a joke.
If that is truly your family heritage, then I sincerely apologize for suspecting you of being a Russian. So, after defending Russian aggression and Putin, you are offended with the dots I connected?
I stand by my assessment that Canada would never allow Russian missiles on their border, aimed against the US. That is nothing more than bat-sh!t crazy talk. Yet, you associate that level of insanity with Dems. Although I have to agree with your assessment regarding next Nov.
The DNC has moved too far left for me, so I'm changing my affiliation to Independent, even though I don't believe in splitting the popular vote. That's what happened in 2016 when Bernie supporters stayed home. Now, our nation is in turmoil, internally and internationally. Trump is clueless regarding public service and governance.
Trumptards hate Dems. No one trusts the MSM, after that shameless excuse of a non-biased debate. And alternative news sources have their own motivations. In other words, Trump has successfully discredited everyone but himself, as dictators tend to do.
No one can figure out what Blumberg is doing, perhaps a third party run. Latest reports are that Obama is stepping in to stop Bernie and there are speculations that Hillary will jump into the race. WTF is going on with our country?
Tulsi is our last hope for returning to sanity.

@AtariM216 Just watched Part 1 of the Stone/Putin interview. Thank you, it was very interesting. It reminded me a lot of living in England 78-88, when my POV became much more Anglicized than American, because I learned all about the Europeans' opinions of the 'Ugly Americans', how 'they' were the warmongers, invading sovereign nations in the name of 'Freedom' (instead of oil). I also learned a lot about 'socialism', people contributing a little for the benefit of all, such as healthcare. These are the reasons I identified with Dems.
Bush had no reason to attack the Taliban, nor Iraq. I was appalled and embarrassed when he won a second term. So, he tanked our economy and Obama won.
Prior to Obama, I was ignorant of politics. But, he spoke from the heart and with deep moral conviction, like Tulsi does, so I proudly supported him, as I do Tulsi. Obama saved our economy from collapse, saved our auto industry from bankruptcy, gave us ACA (which insurance companies undermined), and did the best he could have dealing with the mess in the Middle East. (go folks, shoot your best shots)
But, now Obama is the bad guy. Clinton is the wicked witch from the East. The entire DNC is corrupt. No one trusts anyone, especially the MSM. Oh yeah, Dems are traitors and Trump is innocent of everything. Even if he isn't he can't be indicted nor charged, because presidents are above the law.
Yeah, Putin looks pretty logical doesn't he?
I come here to support Tulsi and to swat away a few trolls, who criticize her. But, I'm obviously not Aloha enough. So, perhaps I should keep my POV to myself. This stuff is so crazy that I would be much more blissful to be ignorant of it all and mind my own patch of the woods. Animals are much more pleasant to spend my time with.
Aloha World! Rots-a-ruck! I truly hope that you manage to get it together. 😎
