Members of a small (pop. 200), rural, and very conservative town in Montana are not happy that ICE has rounded up and deported “Roberto,” a local businessman who came here illegally, “worked his butt off,” and over the years became “a neighbor, a member of our community.” Short video linked above.

“How can there not be a way to make him legal?” a citizen asks.

Sadly, this is what being a conservative is all about in today’s America, i.e., you think abuse is fine, until it impacts your own life.

I agree with Joseph T. Stegall at left, but the main reason Trump needs to face justice is for the good of the country–and the entire world.

If Trump dies a “controversial figure” rather than a vicious criminal, the United States will never recover from the drubbing it’s taken on the world stage and the incredible amount of harm that’s been inflicted on the American people.

Moreover, failure to prosecute Trump would set the stage for the next sociopath to come along and take us down even further. Keep in mind that the next guy is probably not going to be as incompetent as Trump and may turn this place into North Korea.

If you want to remain ignorant of science, that’s your choice. Homeschool your kids and teach them that rejecting Christ will send them to an eternity of torment in hell.

You’ll need to start while their still young, while they’re still incapable of asking you why all the little boys and girls who are born in non-Christian countries are doomed to be tortured forever.

Maybe if you can isolate them such that they’ll never question why the bible says the Earth is 6000 years old, when dinosaur bones are hundreds of millions of years old.

If you want to go down this road, which I call child abuse, you have that right.

But realize this: as time passes and science continues to help us cure disease, explore space, extend our lives, and, we hope, help us to avert environmental collapse, your position will reveal itself for what it is: cruel stupidity.

Dr. Brian Cox has risen to the status of what I would call an “astrophysics badass” in a matter of just a few short years.  Anywhere you go on social media, there’s Cox making you think the most profound thoughts imaginable.

In this video, he explains what he told world leaders what they must do about climate change — and why — at a recent COP summit in Glascow.

I won’t give anything away, but I caution you to fasten your seatbelts.

Of course, there is no science or math behind the map here.  But it fits the narrative that people are fleeing California because of its (you name it) environmental regulations, high taxes, woke ideologies, etc.

Why would anyone want to live in a state that, if it were a nation on its own, would be the fourth largest economy on Earth?  Leads the planet in innovation?  Where someone can ski and surf in the same day?

Better get yer ass down to Texas, the oil-drillin’ and death penalty capital of the world.

If you’re a racist moron who’s desperate to punish blacks, immigrants, Muslims, LGBTQs, as well as intelligent, kind people, you can force yourself to believe the constant torrent of lies that come out of Trump’s mouth.

You go online or turn on the television, not to learn something, but to go shopping for ideas that support the hateful crap that’s already in your mind.

Wind turbines work by extracting some of the kinetic energy from moving air and transferring it to the blades that move in a circle.

No moving parts means no kinetic energy.

Sorry.

Iceland is lucky enough to have incredible geothermal resources.  And while it’s not alone in that regard, most parts of the world require drilling through some of the toughest rock on the planet.

That’s the reason that solar and wind have come to dominate the landscape of renewables; their costs have plummeted in recent years, making things like geothermal noncompetitive in most regions.

To the author of the meme here, I respond:

Yes, all this is true.  But we must never forget that we voted for this, not once but twice.

Still, a full 30% of us support the lies, the stupidity, and the criminality, while our enemies are popping the tops off of champagne bottles.  Russia took us down without firing a shot.  China is making its way toward world domination, largely because the United States committed suicide.

Fifty years ago, we were a reasonably well-educated and principled people.

Now, we’re a blend of greedy pigs and hateful imbeciles.

We have no one to blame for the implosion of America but ourselves.

It would be incorrect to say that literally no one saw this coming, but it took the overwhelming majority of the world by complete surprise.
