People really need to adopt phased treatment. Phase 1 safety, stabilisation, and resourcing

Anything else is contraindicated until phase 2 processing

This has been the advice since the late 1980's. We've had 40 years to get on board with this

The USA has not ratified most human rights conventions, meaning their laws and people don't seem to know about rights other than their outdated constitution

Absolutely we should

Human rights are a protection for us all

The USA has ratified very few human rights conventions, look at how that is going...

Candace who?

From across the Pacific, is she someone to know about?

The ballroom will remind generations of him

... as a museum about corruption and a warning for generations of schoolchildren

The LNP child sex offender register would not have been even slightly helpful

And is not stopping other unidentified offenders either

But let's keep the ads fresh in my social media feed

What a waste of time and money!

Govt by marketing...

May we assist, from across the Pacific?

Perhaps also we might enable your honourable tradition to continue with insults from exile, if you'd like

07.12.2025 23:30 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

No. There is a way out

Make important changes to your democratic system so extremists & zealots can't win elections

Compulsory & ranked choice voting drags elections towards the middle away from extremes

Freeze policy from the start of campaigning until inauguration. No last min appointments

Etc

It is worse than you think

Most nations rarely issue a pardon

Pardons are not normal

Australia issued one in 2023. Before that? All I find is convict pardons from the 1800's. I'm sure there are more but...

Pardons are vanishingly rare

Fix your broken systems. Trump is just using what exists

A post Trump Renaissance opportunity

Create something better

Compulsory and ranked choice voting might be a good start

Harsh penalties against disinformation

Tax the wealthy and their companies and their charities

Register lobbyists, make all their requests public

Kill gerrymandering

The ballroom should always remind people of him

Make it a museum to failures of democracy and the grossness of the Patriarchy

Perhaps with a Christian dominionism corner

Make sure there is a pile of fossil fuel waste in the rose garden cemetery too

I've been reading words like that in posts by people from the USA for years

Trumpie just magnifies anything that will get attention

Intolerance seems a wider issue than he, or his administration

Don't know what that means

You might consider re-writing the rules a bit. Some seem to have abandoned them

I cannot see the USA being the same as it was, ever again

Health is a human right

Given science, 'great health' is the minimum human right

Years of believing without question what is said from a pulpit or a Fox News desk has made them perhaps the most gullible people on earth

That is sad, not funny

This seems the fossil fuel funded far right Christian dominionists aim

Disinformation to overwrite all opposition (political, scientific, social) to a evangelical republic with no elections, and impotent institutions

Is the USA at the start of an empire, as created by Gaius Octavius (Augustus)?

Cancel culture...

Literal cancel culture

They cancelled these peoples adoption of US culture

Everything this US admin does is a mask for their racism and Patriarchy
