Today’s America admires the rich, and we have no problem if our leaders are sociopathic rapists.
All they really need to do in order to retain our adoration is to continue to punish people with brown skin and give tax breaks to their fellow billionaires.
Quality education, healthcare, protecting our environment, and affordability are all issues for communists and woke sissies.
Let’s not rush to judgement here.
OK, he’s an alcoholic Fox New host who’s led the U.S. military into a huge quagmire that, day by day, continues to destroy the U.S. and world economy.
My gardener is just as well qualified to lead the largest military in human history.
But Hegseth is 100% loyal to Trump. Nothing else matters.
Well, he hasn’t been charged with a crime, let alone convicted.
But if the wealthiest man in the world says he belongs in prison, so be it. After all, this is the United States in 2026.
Maybe Musk can have him sent to the electric chair. That would make the “Proud Republicans” very happy, and quite proud to be patriotic Americans, wouldn’t it?
You know what they say: “with liberty and justice for all.”
Most Americans who have the means to travel have rented a car in Paris and driven it all over France. I happen to be the first Avis renter to pick up a car at Heathrow and take it through the Chunnel on my way to Paris, on my way to Stuttgart in western Germany.
How much French do I know? Close to zero. I don’t even know the French word for “zero.’ Was I a menace to the French? Doubt it.
This strikes me as pure MAGA racism. It’s an appeal to punish people with brown skin, or preferably, take them and their little children into detention and ultimately deport them. The more pain, the better.
Remarkably, there are still people on this Earth who agree with Mr. Hayek. It appeared that their numbers were thinning out, until Donald Trump came along and gave straight white Christian men permission to be the most disgusting people imaginable.
Social justice brought us the end of the divine right of kings and slavery; it brought us the Age of Reason and the incorporation of science into policymaking.
Even the most despicable Americans in the most backwater parts of the United States will face steep consequences if they lynch a black man, and don’t forget that lynching in the Deep South was as popular as baseball only 100 years ago.
One of the key features of Trumpism is that facts don’t matter–and this includes facts that members of the MAGA base experience every time they go to the grocery store or fill up their gas tank.
If Trump or one of his minions says it, it must be true, regardless of how blatantly false it is.
Here, Samuel L. Jackson provides a fresh insight into today’s Republican party. It’s the polar opposite of the idea we all learned as children: live and let live.
People who aren’t straight white Christian males are the enemy.
At 2GreenEnergy, we talk a great deal about the incredible transition in the politics of the Republican party of the United States.
When I was growing up in the 1960s, Republicans were actually fairly sane people. Nobody was trying to suppress voting, rejecting science, or declaring the Democrats were communists.
The meme here provides a good example of what I mean.
From a reader: Okay… confession: I only physically read about a quarter of it.
I’ll make an even greater confession: I read “Atlas Shrugged” and “The Fountainhead” back-to-back when I was a teenager, and they meant a great deal to me at the time.
It was a couple of decades later that I realized that “the virtue of selfishness,” as Rand described her philosophy, is a horrible basis on which to build a society. Fortunately, there isn’t a nation on Earth where everything is privatized: roads, tunnels, bridges, airports, law enforcement, criminal justice, disaster relief, libraries, national defense, bank deposit insurance, emergency healthcare, food safety, etc.
Moreover, hoping that rich and selfish people will restrain themselves from ruining the environment is a joke.
A couple of facts, for those who still put a value on the truth:
Trump has had little to nothing to do with work requirements and government sponsored supplemental nutrition, and
more Trump voters every day are regretting their choices.
