Where are the freedom-loving constitution absolutists now? The GOP are a bunch of hypocrites.

Also a military only exists with the support of its citizens. The Marines may not come back from this. At the very least this could be their Kent State moment. It’s time for the generals to start saying ‘no’.

How do we know the are actually police officers? No ID. Face covered. Anyone would be within their rights to assume they are a hostile invasion force and use their 2nd amendment rights to defend their community. A dangerous precedent

This is theatre to make us forgive Elon for his collaboration in autocracy. It won’t work.

Half of the world’s ~4 million Freemasons live in the USA. The Federalist society, EWTN and Knights of Columbus (any 10% of Opus Dei) are in the USA. Maybe it’s the USA thats the problem.

You know, if I had to choose between a priest or bishop with correct orthodox theology and someone meeting Christ in the streets, I know which one I would want. “I pray and read the Bible for two hours each morning” doesn’t sound like a non-believer to me.

Do you mean Angles? Or Saxons? Or Jutes. Or Normans. Or do you mean Celtic-Britons or Romano-Britons? And in America where to the French and German slave owners fit in to this matrix?

Hoping for states like Kentucky to save the Union is a big fat waste of time.

I agree. A deeper reading as the Rabbi suggests reveals not just more nuance but a spiritual life that is much more diverse than is portrayed, from the presence of Yahweh and his partner (Lilith?) in excavations of house altars, to El and a pantheon of gods and goddesses.

Yes and it was poor 15 years ago. We have an ‘extractive’ mentality that we need to get rid of. Just like you are what you eat, Australia orients around mining and low IP sectors.

A lot of what we know about was happening in the 1st temple is because of the condemnation of them by the writers of the Tanakh. The patriarchal rule making and exhortations means there were others saying and doing otherwise.

Yeah but we actually know about this stuff BECAUSE they condemned it. That’s ironic isn’t it.

If you were really trying to make government efficient you would not set up Doge as it is. Their modus operandi is dumb.

Goodbye soft power. Every $ cut here is $10 required to be added to Defence and $100 reduction in future foreign trade.

we can say they reduced efficiency- at least according to what business means by this word: In operations research, efficiency means achieving the best possible outcome within defined constraints, with no waste of resources or opportunity for improvement under those constraints.

Australia took this to its ridiculous extreme during the period of the white Australia policy where we administered literacy test in any language the immigration agent wanted to. Your Chinese and can speak perfect English or here’s a test in Italian. Fortunately Australia has moved on.

Well that would because the claims you make in your article are unsubstantiated.

Is it constitutional to have a law that regulates the judicial decision process? I have not read the bill so I’m not sure if this is really the case but I would think this needs a constitutional amendment not just a law.

I dare Trump, Bondi or Noem to walk around any of those cities at night without a security detail. Let’s make it fair - they can have hand gun. They are all very tough when they are cosplaying.

Best thing ever! 1. The Nats have been manipulating the Libs to take on unelectable policies, 2. They empower the Right wing of the Liberal party to outsized influence 3. Now not the opposition the Nats loose the privileges and extra resource of being the official Opposition.

As usual a trump win is all theatre, just like his business successes (before he got into straight out grifting).
