I think both are horrific. I will say Hamas gave the Israeli people good reason to attack them, whereas Ukraine's only sin was not electing the preferred candidate ( or rather puppet ) of Putin and trump.

I heard France was that way in the 16 and 17 hundreds - until it wasn't .

Good that cats are Republicans, because cats are finicky, and are as likely to forget to vote in the midterms as not.

Every promise a Republican makes today turns into a lie before sunset tomorrow.

WTF. Everyone, cameras out. Get it all on video.

I have a dog, but she is worried that the GOP is going to completely strip veterinary care and urges all the big dogs to pull the D lever.

One more game. I disapprove of him more and longer than most, but this is bigger than politics. It's baseball. Neither team can stand him. I refuse to make it about him. I WOULD like to own stock in Heinz when the Jay's visit Ottowa though.

The way he rubs his inhumanity in Americans” face never ceases to stun me.

He’s illegally refusing to pay food stamp benefits…

…while he throws a ridiculously over the top Gatsby party for his right wing millionaire and corporate friends.

Our young, gullible white males will be drawn into that war - with all of the excesses and atrocities of war. They will have to make horrible choices. The will obey immoral orders. They will kill people as part of their 'job'. Like every war, it will leave scars on the human psyche.

Toeing. I don't know if hoe's tows or if hose toes - if any of those 4 in any combination are a thing.

Oh, she is all for it. Towing the party line. As are many loud-on-social-media RW Oregonians. That is why I am on Bluesky. I do not understand the right. They want to punish Portland for the protests from 2020. We are back to WMD's. Believe us when we lie to you, dammit! She supports troops in Ptown

WTF? This is expensive and unnecessary. Elections are supposed to have consequences. The only positive ones I see with this one are exposing all of the flaws of our checks and balances. So much negative for so many all over the world to benefit a few of the wealthiest folks - from the same places.

And Democrats, of course.

How much MORE correct than she realizes. We are an industrialized nation - and we have industries that we have to take care of and the prison-industrial complex is just one of those industries.
That industry generally does better under Republican administrations.

I gave it a like - but I had to Google it first 😉.

Every church should be doing this, and if your church isn’t, you’re at the wrong church.

And even some who do. Those who have the audacity of hope. Those who have been successful who actually DO care about the assets we have all been given. There are good stewards and bad stewards of nations' assets. We are getting an example of the 2nd option.

Stephen Miller. That - or he was dropped on his head as a child.

I KNEW I followed you. What a bonus!!! You followed me back. Great comparisons. Lousy visual imagery. ( Fromunda cheese is a great nickname for Donald, now that I think about it ).

True that. I am in Oregon, and he hates us almost as bad.

You know? I kind of do too. Just to watch the ketchup fly when the WS winners visit the Premier. Dips-hit said he wasn't going to invite the winner to the Whitehouse. ( Neither team would go anyway, so I think he was just trying to save himself from embarrassment ).

Respect 👇

In no uncertain terms, THIS is exactly what’s happening right now.

🆘🇺🇸

Bingo indeed.

P.S. If you do get independence, do you know who I would talk to if I wanted to seek political asylum? 🤣🤣

Like I said - you are a one trick pony. Though if I lived in and was a Peurto Rican, I would not want any part of the US right now, and I would rather be affiliated with any other demicratic country - if I had to live under affiliation. But again - I do not have a dog in the fight.

Disabled People are Being Mistreated in ICE Detention Facilities Why is no one talking about it? Where's the media? Where's the public outcry? Another example of the pervasive nature of ableism and how society views disabled people as expendable.

Another case of retaliation is Alma Bowman.

Alma is a disabled 58 year old woman who spent 30 months in an ICE camp during first Trump regime

When released, she worked as a whistleblower to expose abuse within the system

In March of this year, ICE grabbed her again

She’s been detained ever since

Cruelty is THE feature of the 2025 version of the GOP - it is not a bug ( though they do have many bugs - I think they are called 'MAGAts').
