Totally jaded and ashamed American. If the billionaires don't want to allow change, maybe it's time we take it for ourselves. They told us 40 years ago if we cut their taxes, the money would "trickle down" to us - has it?

I don't know - did QAnon post about the pizza parlor kiddie ring being cannibals?

If so, then yes it can be true - just Republicans doing it

And you just know that red states will challenge the shit out of anyone named "Ramierez" in an urban district while letting Billy Bob and his wife slide right in some conservative rural district

Trump vows voter ID requirements for the midterms, 'whether approved by Congress or not' In social media posts on Friday, the president said if Congress failed to approve legislation mandating voter ID, he would issue an executive order.

Elections are run by the STATES. Fuck-off dictator wannabe

Costs from Trump's tariffs paid mainly by US firms and consumers, NY Fed says Last year, collective import tariff rates on various goods coming into the US more than tripled.

There isn't any sort of "DUH" GIF good enough for this

โ€˜Suicide is only one option': Social Security staff newly assigned to phone duties raise concerns over training Experts and SSA employees question wisdom of telling callers in crisis that suicide is an option.

In a sane world, this could acutally be a valid response - we would have more/better physician-assissted suicide where this would be a last option.

With this administration? It's all about getting rid of "undesirables"

You saw it coming. I've practically been begging my wife for us to pack up and leave since the election - first as an option to work in an overseas office for my company... and then to retire when the idiot's tariffs cost me my job

Have you ever seen information of how they audit electronic voting machines? I haven't. No way would I vote on one of those things again until they have proper auditing against a paper trail

โ€˜Arrest Herโ€™: Virginiaโ€™s Abigail Spanberger Roasted Over Disastrous Grill Photo-Op Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger (D) is taking her own turn being roasted after she inexplicably shared a disastrous photograph of her operating a grill.

Yeah, it's sad, but it would be nice if we arrested politicians for abusing immigrants, participating/protecting pedophiles, etc.

Trump doubles down on racist video, saying no staffer has been disciplined US president, who blamed aide for post depicting Obamas as apes, maintains video is not a problem

Now ask him if the staffer got a promotion?

Or if he's the "staffer"?

Well, if Trump and the right can make unfounded accusations about 2020, then I can about 2016 and 2024.

I truly believe that both of those elections used hacking of electronic voting to tip the swing districts/states to their favor.

2020 was legit because it was mostly mail-in voting due to Covid

It's the OPPOSITE. If adversaries get their hands on the files, they can use it as coercion against people named in the files.

Get their names in the open and they lose that leverage.

Fitting that our Mob Boss President would use the Mafia tactic of ensuring that there's dirt on everyone so everbody stays in line

If, when this nightmare is finally over, we don't have Nuremberg-style trials for all the people who committed atrocities (or stood by and did nothing), we'll have failed yet again.

Just like we did after doing nothing about Jan 6th.

Just like we did after doing nothing about Trump/Epstein before

I was out of work for 6 months because of that idiot and his tariffs. I'm sure I have friends that voted for him a second time (third?), but they seem to know to shut their mouths around me cuz I'll tell them to stick it and walk away. I don't associate with admitted Fascists.

And most of them drink alcohol which is far worse.

They both should be legal or they both should be illegal - and we've seen how well Prohibition works

a woman with a serious look on her face and the words every single time behind her ALT: a woman with a serious look on her face and the words every single time behind her

I have a homework assignment for you or anyone who sees this post.

Any time Trump does anything, or says anything, ask yourself how he intends to use those words or those actions to profit. In some way.

There will be a way every time.

Prove me wrong. Once. That's it, just once.

Seems there's more of a national security threat if we DON'T release them. Other countries will have blackmail material on people and can get them to spy for them.

Get it out in the open!
