Apparently I got the weird autism that can't spell.
Instead of liking Trains, I have a whole bunch of trans friends.

Like every bully that gets called on their shit, they back down. Especially when it looks like a fight might happen and they may face consequences.

Carr needs to go.
Except I'm not sure what kind of bootlicker trump would install next.

1. Doing speeches, and doing the good work.
2. WTF are you doing your speeches and strategizing?
3. Why is it Pres. Obama's responsibility to fix this?
3a. Especially after the utter abdication of responsibility by the DNC for getting us in this mess to start with?

I had a prof, ages ago for History, that would lambast anyone that tried to use a video as an argument.
"I need to know YOUR words, not theirs. Think for yourself and write something."
I've had low to no tolerance for video as a source since then.

Is this sarcasm? I sure hope to hell it's sarcasm.

Is there some script of this? I have neither the time nor the inclination to watch a series of videos and potentially have to listen to Trump's voice.

Compassion exists for those who operate within the social contract.

You show up with a gun and threaten us, then insist on tolerance? We do not have tolerance for that. You do not tolerate people that want you dead. How are you not understanding this at your age?

You seem surprised by this. Did someone wake you up from your nap?

Your milquetoast morals and outrage are phenomenally late to the scene.

Because he had the audacity to ask for the judicial warrant, as they were interrupting him during his duties.

And apparently there was a conversation before he arrived between the agents where one stated, "Do we want to arrest the Comptroller?"

They knew what they were doing.

She literally said this on camera:
Kristi Noem: "We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city."

Especially old guard judges from an era when they were selected for their legal acumen and not their ability to kiss a ring.

Sure, in terms of the definition and how many letters are used.

Pointing out that it's not a law is utterly futile when the Executive branch is acting on these edicts as though they are laws. When law enforcement agencies are acting on EOs as though they are edicts from the throne, who cares?

Show me where it being an EO and not a Law has stopped Musk from destroying institutions that he should have no power to touch.

Calling it an EO as though it's not important is pure sophistry. The Right has the tools to enforce executive fiats from Trump. Arresting judges should have been the clue.

Chuck will absolutely bend the knee.
He always does that, just before he kisses ass across the aisle. There's no fight left in the man, if there was any to begin with.

Yowlin' about it after it's gone down but not doing anything.
That's pretty much all Chuck is good for.

If he's even still alive, I have low expectations of that being true for much longer.
His ability to answer questions about what it was like inside that hell hole is a direct threat to this administration.

Our failure as a nation to teach history properly, instead teaching it as date memorization, has handicapped our understanding of just how stupid humans can be.

On the plus side, at least this fiasco will be well documented.

You only get one misinformation strike, after that anything you post is suspect. Toodles.

Absolutely, make utterly certain that every single person knows that the reason things are getting more expensive has to do with the Toddler-in-chief and the House who have abdicated all power to him.

You think SCOTUS started this?
My dude, no.
This started before Reagan was elected. We're just in the last Quarter of the game.

And at this point, the Right WANTS us to attack the Constitution while all this is going on. They'll meet us at the table so fast for that, and then they'll run with it.

I know that any hope of returning to anything like what we used to call normal is utterly destroyed.
I'd love to have a reason to not despair for the future though.

And every single denial is an attempt to deflect. The lackwits that adore the President only want to be on the winning side, they don't care the cost of their victory. And the word "pyrrhic" is meaningless to them.

All this doom and gloom, all this despair over how the nation is falling apart due to the current administration.

Can ANYONE give me a reason to believe that we're going to recover from this? Because I can't see a path to that at present.

Sincerely asking.

It is rare for me to feel that I'm well represented by the person I voted for. Often I vote for someone because I like some of their policies, but usually I'm not enthusiastic about them.

Sen. Ossoff is one of the few that I am proud to have voted for in my life. Keep up the good work!
