Sure! Shouldn’t the U.S president, a convicted felon, be allowed to deport an innocent congressperson because she doesn’t support him? Isn’t this the American way?
If this were happening in Russia, Putin would have her tortured and executed. Why can’t Trump do the same?
Isn’t this the guy who tried to overthrow the U.S. federal government in 2021?
And there are still people in America who believe this garbage?
What happened to the United States? Didn’t these people used to be at least somewhat smart?
The guy who sent me this writes, “A Loss for the (Climate) Alarmists!”
A loss for climate alarmists? LOL. It’s a loss for all humanity.
But let’s be real. This is the only thing in which Trump succeeds: ruining good things for his own enrichment.
And that can mean a great numbers of things: the Kennedy Center, the city of Minneapolis, our scientific institutions, our greatest universities, our rejection of cruelty, our opposition to dictators, the future of Greenland, the lives of immigrants who have been living, working, and paying taxes here for decades, public education, protection from formerly wiped-out diseases, and America’s relationship with its allies — for starters.
It’s the only thing we do well as a nation now: destroying the best things that the U.S. has developed throughout the centuries, so that Trump can maintain power.
The reader who sent me this writes:
Don’t worry conservatives outnumber commie libtards 20 to 1 and we support ice.
You seem to be comparing ordinary crime with routine extra-judicial killings by the U.S. government, and you appear to reject the idea of prosecuting coldblooded murderers if they’re employed by the Trump administration.
Btw, it’s not just “liberals” who want rule of law returned to the United States; it’s everyone but the most morally depraved.
Sorry. Not impressed with your thinking here.
Abraham Joshua Heschel was a Jewish theologian and philosopher with a social consciousness that led him to participate in the civil rights movement.
I love what he says here, though intelligence still impresses me, for what that’s worth.
What Orwell said at left may be true, but if you’re Trump, this is exactly what you want from you press secretary — instant access to a few dozen lies that can be used at any time, according to the reporter in front of you.
I wonder if the jackass who sent me the meme here is “for real,” because I can’t imagine that anyone is so ignorant that he doesn’t know that:
1) Displacing fossil fuels is a huge boon to the environment, especially getting rid of coal in the grid mix, and
2) As the beef industry continues to expand, it destroys our rain forests.
As we frequently discuss here, Trump benefits from a population of profoundly ignorant Americans.
Ruining things is our core strength at this point.
I’d no more “put that gun on my hip” and attack people, almost none of whom have criminal records, than I’d chop off my right arm, you son of a bitch.
Controversial though it may be, exposing school kids to science has my approval.
In 1971, one of our teachers took us down to the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia as part of a course we took called “Man and His Environment.” We measured the levels of dissolved oxygen and various toxic chemicals, and wrote papers about our findings.
Now, this whole endeavor would have been written off by morons as “indoctrination” or “woke.”
At the time, most of my 74 classmates went on to fantastic colleges, and about a dozen of them became physicians who, even today, are saving the lives of the same jackasses who think that teaching science is for transgender socialists.
I’d rather these idiots whose breathing had almost stopped or whose heart rate was disappearing who were later released from their hospitals to live the rest of their lives in some semblance of health would simply say “thank you.”
Yes, I know; that’s too much to ask in today’s America.
