In civilized countries, it's considered a basic human right.

Yeah...but these are real WHITE people! You know, the kind that deserve to be treated like human beings and should have their rights respected.

There's a very easy explanation, one that the rest of the civilized world learned long ago. You can't increase spending and simultaneously provide tax cuts to the rich. Since Citizens United essentially legalized buying politicians & legislation, fair and reasonable taxation has been a pipe dream.

Luck has nothing to do with it. Most American news organizations have accepted their new designated role as mere purveyors of propaganda. Free speech and investigative journalism are on life support in the US. Just barely registering a heart-beat. And the ghouls are getting ready to pull the plug.

That sounds like a great idea in theory, but allies are worried by the lack of resistance Trump is encountering domestically. GOP - crickets, SCOTUS - crickets, Dems - mostly crickets, voters - mostly crickets. They are starting to lose faith that the US will ever be a trustworthy partner again.

Not that Trump or his MAGA morons actually know the facts about any of this either, but when Obama was born, Hawaii had just become a US state. Technically, he would have been a US citizen and eligible either way since it was a US territory before that, but there would have been endless lawsuits.

Yeah. To be honest, I doubt he even knows the Pacific theater even existed. He probably thinks Pearl Harbor was the Mexicans.

Still better than the alternative though...

Because the deepest desire the monumentally ignorant MAGA minions have is to hate. Immigrants, liberals, dark-skinned people, it doesn't matter who. They just want scapegoats . And they're too dumb to understand the difference between allegations & evidence, so that's where DOGE comes in.

Join us on the non-political one too. Then you can rage-post here and join us on the other one when you need a break.

How about a government that adheres to and defends the Constitution & respects basic human rights?

It is when one side can piss all over the Constitution with impunity. The time for finding common ground is over until Republicans step up. It's time for Democrats to actively sabotage any & all legislation. Grind everything to a halt. Organize protests & boycotts. Stop talking, start fighting!

I genuinely fear that day may be hurtling at us with increasing speed, but I hope I'm wrong. in the mean time we have to stay sane and live our lives as fully as we can. I'll set up a non-political profile tonight and let you know what the handle is.

Alternatively, we could set up private, explicitly non-political profiles on here. I've been considering doing that anyway.
