  1. It's sad. What trump has done to this country, and how he's ruined the legacy of so many people. 100 years from now what any of these people will be remembered for is enabling the Trumpublicans. The rest of Dole's legacy, as just good and decent as it is, will not be forgotten by history.
  2. I thought it just had to be the day before departure, and not 24 hours? Which, well just fuck. Besides the ridiculousness of this when omnicron's been here for awhile, I have my first international trip in 2 years next week. Between the restrictions going, and then coming back in, with a departure at 5 am and a connection, fingers crossed.
  3. Just put a few trump flags in your yard. And the saddest part about all this is that now Meadows has taken the most important part of his testimony from trump trying to overthrow the government, and obscuring that by trump knowingly spreading Covid germs to Biden and military families And still, plant enough flags in your yards, and none of this fucking matters.
  4. I thought I had lost the ability to be outraged anymore. Although at this point, and for a long time, my outrage is not a trump, but at his many, many enablers. The same people who yelled and screamed about respecting the troops, and used that as a sword to go after Kapernick and others, are crickets over trump going to an event with military families, knowing he had Covid, discouraging these military family members from doing the one thing that could have helped protect them from getting Covid from trump (masking), and then lying and blaming military families for giving trump covid, when he knowingly spread it to them. But none of this shit matters, so long as you have a facebook page with lots of eagles and flags.
  5. After TFG tested positive. Oh, and then he blamed military families for him getting Covid, when he gave it to them having knowingly shown up at the event after testing positive. But thank god he didn't wear a tan suit or buy a Le Crueuset pan.
  6. All I see is this, other than he's such a lunatic twitter kicked him off:
  7. That second category also never included trying to overthrow the U.S. government. Until it did. There is nothing they will not accept. If for no other reason than they would have to admit that they were marks for the past five years.
  8. It won't matter if video of trump with 10 year olds is released. It will all be some combination of a left wing witch hunt, SoCialiSm, Killary set him up, how was he to know that the girl was only 10/she looks 18, and the FBI is a liberal agency out to get trump.
  9. I don't think you need a passenger manifest for a private plane. Not surly 1% though so not positive.
  10. Bravo: defends white supremacist publication Bravo 5 minutes later: whining about surly liberal cabal and how mean everyone is to him, and why aren't people more understanding of his defense of white supremacist publications.
  11. It's telling that you think Media Matters is the liberal equivalent to the Daily Caller. So you're admitting that the 2021 U.S. "conservative" leaning news source is pedals in white supremacy.
  12. I haven't cooked this specifically, but when making Indian food I often use whole coriander and cumin, but bash it in a mortar and pestle. The whole seeds have more flavor.
  13. Museum of Science and Industry. The Christmas movie sing along at the Music Box Theater.
  14. So Ag is now arguing about a Democratic plot to overturn the election by means specifically written in the Constitution to install, ummm, Mike Pence. And then wonders why the Trumpublicans aren't respected.
  15. Ok. So you're advocating for bail reform. This is the same Wisconsin law that has been in place for decades. And you want to make bail more onerous. You're quoting Chisolm from 2007 talking about a law that had been on the books for many years at that time. Edit to add: even if any of your nonsense was true, what you're pointing to is policy differences. There are legitimate reasons to seek bail reform, including in many places people locked up for years awaiting trial for minor, nonviolent offenses. There are also reasons to be against it, such as perhaps more violent criminals will be free and commit more crimes. That's a policy difference. One that you may feel strongly about. But it's not the same as spreading anti-semitic conspiracy theories or advocating an overthrow of the legitimately elected government.
  16. Did you even read the article you posted? The prosecutor requested lax bail in a domestic violence case. Wisconsin still has cash bail, and has not substantively changed its law regarding bail in many, many years. "While Milwaukee hasn't ever abolished cash bond nor has the state, prosecutors in the DA's office are said to often advocate for lax bail policies."
  17. Proving my point. This is a lie. Wisconsin hasn't enacted bail reform. Wisconsin has had the same laws regarding bail on the books for decades.
  18. So you think MTG peddling anti-semitic conspiracy theories or lies about the 2020 election being stolen is in the same boat as backing bail reform? This is why I don't give a fuck about arguing with the right, and the U.S. right is no longer conservative, they're extreme right wing. They peddle in hate, disinformation, and anti-democratic small d ideals. And then pretend like that's comparable to a disagreement on tax policy or criminal justice reform.
  19. Lol. I'm old enough to remember when Obamacare was actually a Republican idea from Mitt Romney and then coopted by the Dems. But now it's SoCiaLism. Too tired to find Ag's post pages back saying that Republican party hasn't moved to the right.
  20. Not sure where this goes, but this seems as good a place as any.
  21. They’re pretty close to this
  22. Yes. It's not like there's one magic moment where you abruptly transition from a free society to a fascist state. It's highly likely the 2022 and 2024 elections will not be free and fair. The rural areas have tons more voting power than where people live, already, and there's already extreme gerrymandering. We currently house about 20% of the world's prisoners, but have 4.2% of the world's population. We spend about as much on our military as the entire rest of the world combined. The only country with a higher budget for policing than us is China. And we have way more guns per capita than any other country in the world. I'm not sure why you think a fascist state looks different from that, other than noone is censoring facebook yet.
  23. 30% want a fascism. There's another 30% who will go along with the fascists for a (perceived) tax cut.
  24. You should renew before it expires. Most countries won't let you in unless you have at least 6 months remaining on the passport.
