No.
Just no.
Pass the resolution rejecting the war, and demand it end now.
That will do far more to protect our troops right now.
Then yes, hack the military budget deeply.
That’s nice (and I don’t disagree).
And it is NOT a reason to vote *for* her. She isn’t qualified and should be rejected.
*His* apology wasn’t one.
*BAFTA* knew the risk in advance, and they accommodated him, without doing anything to protect others from harm.
*BBC* should have edited it out. They didn’t, while censoring other things — and so they have absolutely *no* excuse.
Accountability?
Murdered.
One does not get to claim anything less than intentional homicide when one throws someone out into the bitter cold without access to help or protection from the weather. And to do it to someone who’s blind and has essentially no ability to even seek help — that’s murder.
I’ll skip watching, just to help avoid giving him numbers. He cares so much about those.
And I can read the review, the analysis, and go listen to any excerpts that are actually significant...
How long before Musk lets us all know that he also suffers from Tourette’s?
And yet zero accountablity for the *harm* people experienced.
Sometimes what you mean or intend (or don’t) doesn’t matter.
I didn’t mean to run over you doesn’t change the harm done.
And a pre-apology doesn’t cover it.
IOKIYAR
The Europeans I went to high school with (or got to know later) are aghast.
And they’re watching.
I know some who’ve already declined coming to the wedding (here in the US) of dear friends — because of our shit show. Not safe. And who’ve said not until well after he’s gone. If then.
Check out what’s already happening with reservations for the World Cup. Tens of thousands — already — have cancelled. They don’t want to/are afraid to be here.
A couple more years of fascism and assaults on people will make 2028 attended largely by Boers and Russians.
Both/and.
We were, in some ways, getting better.
But we never really lanced and drained the deep abscess of our racist history — colonialism and racism and enslavement — and so the infection remains there, ready to erupt again and again into massive, national crisis. And here we are again.
And this? This isn’t even in sight of enough.
Cops frequently don’t turn them on, or they “mysteriously” fail. Not that ethically rooted, highly trained ICE/CBP agents would do such things.
In uniform. Badges, name plates, no masks.
JUDICIAL warrants (only).
And body cams.
And that’s starters.
Biden was bad.
Trump has been worse.
There are 400,000 Gazans dead or unaccounted for.
(Where people be in Gaza? They couldn’t leave, and…)
Weak as Harris was (and I voted for her) on this, she wouldn’t have been as bad.
Trump was the no constraints on Bibi, do what you want option.
An *excellent* notion.
They aren’t that smart (and not nearly as smart as they think they are).
Try “centrist” instead.
And remember Hightower’s observation that there’s nothing in the center of the road except yellow stripes and dead armadillos.
Correction: After a bloc of moderate Dems dropped everything.
They got nothing. No substance.
There is no there there.
And the promise of a vote about ACA subsidies is empty several ways — including that the new rates will be out and locked in before that hollow vote comes to any fruition.
The Vichy Caucus.
To be clear, you betrayed the people of New Hampshire and the nation.
A “promise of a vote” is meaningless. We both know there are ways that the GOP and Trump WILL ensure nothing will come of that vote.
Worse, the GOP and use that vote in the elections to cover their asses from our rage.
Once again, We the People have been betrayed by centrists.
As a guess, Dementia Don remembered that the name started with P. And (if it’s really going to be built), it’s in Portsmouth. Which is to say, Kittery, ME.
I recall him being PM while I was living there.
How many Scaramuccis will it be? (What’s the betting?)
Hopefully less than a Friedman.
There were more people who wanted in on offering him fat bribes.
And how could he say no to that?
Particularly when you (apparently) then refer to it by its German (Nazi) name.
Yeah, because the Grateful Dead were a famous German band.
Clearly not the sharpest knife in… the spoon drawer.
Bondi appears to have. FWIW.
I believe my grandfather was just 18 when he moved north to volunteer and join the Royal Canadian Air Force. He flew for Canada until the US finally got into the war.
Some of these fascists are closer to two decades older than he was. Not kids. Cowards, not honorable people.
It costs ~$70 to produce a year’s supply of insulin.
Yet, the average annual cost of insulin went from $2,864 in 2012 to $5,705 in 2016 to $18,000 in 2025. A 25,714% markup. That isn’t inflation or supply chain—It’s corporate greed.
Now—California will sell insulin for $11. Make this nationwide!
I don’t think she’s smart enough to know that she could look them up (much less that she should).
One of the very reliable markers for these folks is that they’re not nearly as smart and clever as they think they are.
