Progress or Backwards

Isn’t this where Trump has parked a Carrier Group and Expeditionary Force to invade “the land” of Venezuela?

Go ahead Ireland! Always had some Marxist in ya!

The irony of the Trumpublicans claiming their big on military/defense is that they put our nation and its constitution in mortal peril.

From what I am hearing, the reallocation of finite resources to bolster ICE's mission on the streets of our cities has taken resources away from land/sea border protection.

Like this just doesn't line up.

What happened to the States Rights crowd?

Come on, make prices spike ahead of holiday gift shopping. Do it. It'll show how tough you are. Come on, do it.

I hate a place that encourages apathy and bad behavior, but damned if NYC won’t just hurt themselves hard after knowing better for so long.

Vote Mamdani, especially if you are Jewish. I don’t know what future you hope for but man-made doomsday isn’t g-d.

Reparations, and err on the side of being too generous than too stingy.

Supreme Court will consider whether people who regularly smoke pot can legally own guns The Supreme Court will consider whether people who regularly smoke marijuana can legally own guns, the latest firearm case to come before the court since its 2022 decision expanding gun rights.

Here's how I see it. The Framers didn't write a clause into the 2A about drugs or alcohol (yes, both existed). They didn't even write a clause about convicted felons. If SCOTUS holds up these limitations to the 2A, then "shall not be infringed" is effectively overturned. Go ahead, make my day.

This should be obvious. The failures of moderate faith based conservatism is that it didn’t ignite the base, tea party, Obama racist backlash, and laying on the southern strategy won them their power back. Moderation will not correct this storyline.

I dunno, is this some version of The Lottery, an economic status culling of the herd, a caste genocide…. stay tuned till what next unimaginable horror will be perpetrated by Republicans.

I’m progressive as hell and about 50% in love with Ralph Lauren look from 30 years ago. It just speaks comfort and comfortable is all I want to be.

Shit. I’m m al says describing in detail the items and gestures I use to virtue signal, because I want it to be clear as hell I hate White Supremacist and Republicans.

“You can win elections by tacking to the middle; lots of people have. But you can also win elections by staking a moral position and convincing people to agree with you. You can earn support by demonstrating what is important to you instead of just being determined to nod along with what you hear.”

With my big mouth and bloviated opinions, I think you’ll never wonder why I feel so righteous. A common appeal to humanity and that kindness begets kindness.

This is a Constitutional Crisis.

We have a president with absolute immunity and pardon power/king and occupying forces/redcoats.

They’re just mindlessly evil and weird. “Kids, kids, what kids? You mean the ones we disappeared during Trump’s last term the ones Trump raped with his boy Jeff?”

Whenever I can take my time in the Atlanta airport, I do. Never forget.

White supremacy is when Republican men and women in their 20s & 30s praising Hitler, genocide, and rape are “just kids”—but 18-year-old Michael Brown was no angel, 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was a thug, 16-year-old Kalief Browder was a criminal, and 12-year-old Tamir Rice should’ve known better.😐

This is potentially a massive story. Did DOJ plan for survivors? Do they have sufficient evidence to prosecute? What is US jurisdiction to prosecute? Where will they go next? When is their court date? Will they be indicted? Held at Gitmo? Returned to Venezuela? Be Epsteined?
