Poor whites in rural USA do not have stocks. When the food stamps dry up and the local hospitals close, along with general costs of everything - nothing will change. They will starve themselves because it’s the liberals fault.

It’s the price they’re willing to pay to get those damn socialists out of power.

A question for the lawyers here.  Can a lawsuit be filed against the administration for the malicious, false comments they make on a daily basis?

State TV is coming.  I feel it. 

What we lawyers would’ve advised a year ago is irrelevant. Ask yourself what Dotard would want. That’s the law now.

Well that’s how it works. They’ve been testing the fences for a long time. Now they start attacking. By the time the midterms happen, it won’t matter.

nsiap.

My man Robert Arnold again, on "Don't Mess with Texas", the Cowboy Myth, and how Texas has gone from spitting in Washington's eye to licking its boots. This man is worth his weight in gold.

The only thing that's bigger in Texas is the bullshit.

We will never have one. Half of the voters want this and half of the non voters can never be swayed to vote.

At this point, I'm convinced that Trump and company have moved past seeing what they can get away with. They're no longer seeing what their base will allow them to do, and instead they're seeing what they can get MAGA to support.

They're not exercising power over the libs, they're exercising power over MAGA. They're fucking with them more than anything. They're learning just how sheepish the sheep can be.

Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz... there will be books written about their cowardice.

I'll never again wonder how Hitler did it.
 

As Ive thought about this and searched for a silver lining in these dark times, I feel like the only serious chance this country has at gun control is if it comes from this wackjob admin. Think about it if the left ever enacted anything no matter how minor it would be met with insanely furious vocal opposition. But if Trump wants them to give up their guns to own the libs, I think they'd actually fucking do it

I had this thought during COVID. Could you imagine the response to Hillary trying to enact any kind of response to COVID?

I was gonna say they were going for the jugular, but well...

It’s interesting. Trump likes to appear impervious to the bone marrow hatred a majority of Americans have for him. But he really is bothered by it.

It's weird how much traction unions are getting across the country, but they've completely lost the "all for one, one for all" mentality that built this country

I have this photo painted in my breakfast nook:

About this image. From BBC

"There's something in the nature of a still image that deeply affects the viewer and stays with them," says Ben Wright, associate director for communications at the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History.

The centre, based at the University of Texas at Austin, houses Adams's archive of photos, documents and correspondence.

"The film footage of the shooting, while ghastly, doesn't evoke the same feelings of urgency and stark tragedy."

But the photo did not - could not - fully explain the circumstances on the streets of Saigon on 1 February 1968, two days after the forces of the People's Army of Vietnam and the Viet Cong launched the Tet Offensive. Dozens of South Vietnamese cities were caught by surprise.

Heavy street fighting had pitched Saigon into chaos when South Vietnamese military caught a suspected Viet Cong squad leader, Nguyen Van Lem, at the site of a mass grave of more than 30 civilians.

Adams began taking photos as Lem was frogmarched through the streets to Loan's jeep.

Loan stood beside Lem before pointing his pistol at the prisoner's head.

"I thought he was going to threaten or terrorise the guy," Adams recalled afterwards, "so I just naturally raised my camera and took the picture."

Lem was believed to have murdered the wife and six children of one of Loan's colleagues. The general fired his pistol.

"If you hesitate, if you didn't do your duty, the men won't follow you," the general said about the suddenness of his actions.

The mental gymnastics these morons have to twist themselves into to try and hide their hypocrisy would be funny to watch if American ideals weren’t being shredded.

Portnoy knows his audience, that's all this is.  Dude isn't some great thinker....he's pandering.  

It's Jeselnick "Thoughts and Prayers" tinged with whatever the tweeter knows will give their particular audience the right vibes while also reminding them, "don't forget about me"

Imagine being compared to Pat McAfee but he's the real deal and you're the knockoff.

Surly is next.

I would say that at some point someone on Stephen Miller’s staff will compile a list of sites that are critical of TFG. This one will be on it and so will my favorite site that I subscribe to which is Defector. David Roth’s writing about TFG alone will get them on there.

Roth is the best political writer in America and has been for a good long while. I hope more people will subscribe to them because as they grow they add more writers to the staff and give more freelance writers the chance to write for them.

I think it would’ve gone so much better than it did under Trump. First, the plans and precautions and preparations that had already been put into place would have still been there instead of being dismantled by Trump. They would’ve taken the threat seriously and communicated it publicly, not tried to trivialize it like Trump did. And Congressional Republicans, not cowed by their fear of Trump, would’ve been safe to acknowledge the seriousness of the emergency. I think there would’ve been much more unity in messaging and hundreds of thousands of lives would’ve been saved. There might have been some pushback from the right-wing media, and of course Trump would have been tweeting contrarian bullshit, but the adults would have been in charge and that includes Republicans who had escaped the need to turn into cowardly sycophants to Trump in order to protect their political careers.

And yes, literally anyone in the White House would’ve approved Operation Warp Speed (maybe under a less hyperbolic name). All or most of our leaders would’ve been open about wearing masks, maintaining social distancing, and getting the vaccine.

Yes, of course there would have been instances of politicians in situations of not following the rules and their political opponents would’ve made a big deal out of it. ‘You had a party! You held a fundraiser and didn’t wear a mask!’ Just like did happen sometimes around the globe. But overall there would not have been a campaign of mixed messages and disinformation. Hillary knows a little something about health care. And you can bet your life that she would’ve respected the advice of Dr. Fauci, wouldn’t have demonized him, and never, ever in a million years would have suggested that maybe people should inject disinfectant into their bodies as a means of fighting the virus like Trump did.
