This should be a permanent ban from all conventions.

If this was an actual coding error, you need to prove it. Release the code both before and after the fix.

US constitution

US constitution

This is the US Constitution page @ the Library of Congress

Sections 9 and 10 have been removed

9 includes habeas corpus, the courts' review of unlawful detention & imprisonment

This gov't can't change the Constitution w/ sneaky editing, but it's a new low: constitution.congress.gov/constitution/

From the #TeslaTakedown protest today in the Back Bay in Boston. About 300ish people there today.

But John Lewis wasn't wearing pink and carrying paddles. He was taking action. Bad John!

From a disgusted constituent. See you at the town meeting today.

As of today, a new term has entered our language. A β€œrubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

β€œIf you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”

Americans are stupid, ignorant, and dangerously violent; and Canada needs to take whatever means are necessary to deter American aggression. I live in this damn country and wish every day I could get out.

A fun thing to do with this supposed Napoleon quote is to do a google search to see what forums it appeared on with this exact wording before 2022. I'm no computer whiz, so maybe I messed up, but the only hits I got were these two...for Stormfront, a neo-Nazi forum.

I was about twenty feet away from Mitt Romney once when he was running for governor of Massachusetts, and he was wearing stage makeup. For the cameras, of course.

Don't Gaslight Yourself. You're Right To Grieve What's Happening to America. I know what you're thinking.

I hear the nagging question you ask inside your head a few hundred times a day: "Is it me, or has a huge portion of this country lost its mind?"

It isn't you.

Fascism Isn't Coming To America, It's Here. Do Americans Have the Strength to Drive it Out? Fascism isn’t coming to America, it’s already here.

Fascism isn’t coming to America, it’s already here.

We are long past the warnings of an approaching existential threat looming on the distant horizon of our story, which many of us spent the past decade imploring people not to ignore.

The foreigner has a hell of a lot of help from Americans who are just as despicable or just don't care. Musk has seen a nation ripe for takeover and looting and he's just going ahead with it.

Yes, he did, and there was immediate near unanimous outrage.

Is the post still there? I can't find it anymore.
