I was a ham operator as a teen back in the days when Radio Moscow was blasting their vile propaganda right in the middle of the 40-meter amateur band. Learned to recognize propaganda when I hear it. Went on to serve Uncle Sam for 28 years. No DMs

You can't say we didn't try to warn them.

Considering the nature of his public statements about legal matters, Yale really ought to revoke his Law degree. With him as an example, the people of the USA should be wondering what they're teaching kids up there in New Haven.

I had in mind a high-security mental institution. There he could be sent without due process.

He's having delusions of grandeur. He was never a credible candidate for that award to begin with.

It appears as though His Highness was in business along with them, running the recruiting portion with his modeling agency and beauty contests that put large numbers of girls in intensely competitive situations.

That's a damned lie! I recall the Dems fighting to keep Trump from excluding non-citizens from the census count.

Yes, a general strike would have an impact.

Shooting a preacher in the head needlessly from a roof a long distance away and laughing about it would clear that bar.

The Consequences of Reagan Breaking the 1981 Air Traffic Controllers Strike Professor Joseph McCartin and former PATCO spokesperson Elliot Simons discuss the anniversary of the firing of 11,000 air traffic controllers and why it matters today.

It's illegal for government employees to strike. That's how Reagan was able to fire all the Air Traffic Controllers '81. truthout.org/video/the-co...

All those people being laid off, if they're not reinstated with back pay as usual, will eventually be replaced with "support services contractors" and some Republican-owned company will be pocketing a percentage of their wages as overhead and profit.

Senator Whitehouse was exceedingly polite. Some Senators would have responded to her change of subject and failure to answer the question with "I'll take that as a YES."

If you work for the government and you harm someone by doing something illegal or contrary to regulations, you can be sued personally and have to pay the award out of your own pocket. This is why ICE thugs cover their faces and don't wear name tags like other LEOs.

Why Marรญa Machado Deserved the Nobel Peace Prize The Venezuelan opposition leader shows why participation matters.

Nobel Peace Prizes have often been awarded to people who fight autocracy. Maria Corina Machado fits right into that tradition

The only chance of getting out of this mess any time soon is for a few Republicans in the House and/or Senate to change parties or leave office one way or another. Best strategy right now is to make them fear the people back home more than Trump and his henchmen.

We The People have the 3rd Amendment. Make the SOBs hold it until they can get to a federal building. Deny them access to food and water too. Let them eat MREs.

It's an integral part of the RICO that has taken control over the Republican Party.

They can overturn nearly every court order. They'd be named in the suit because it's obvious from their behavior that they're among the conspirators and it forces them to recuse from the case.

When do We declare extreme wealth hoarding a severe mental health crisis?
When one is willing to k1ll hundreds of thousands of people simply to accrue another billion dollars, that's not good business sense. That is insanity.

Dangerous, ruthless insanity.

When I was a boy, Christians were sending missionaries to people like those to rescue them from ignorance, starvation and disease.

Here's a plan: File a RICO suit against the GOP for all their corrupt, fascist and un-American activities. Name all the major players, including the GOP-appointed Supreme Court Justices and Leonard Leo.

3rd Amendment doing its intended job. Also don't let them use any restrooms. Make them hold it until they can get to a federal government property.

They should not be aiming at people's heads. That risks hitting them in the eyes. Force should never be used unless it's really necessary.
