Yeah, every betrayal of principles and ideals only forces them further into trumps embrace. The deeper you are in the cult, and many are very deep indeed, the harder it is to get out. Many will go to their graves stanning trump.

I’ve gone years… Pakistan, Jordan, Turkiye, and others… even my tears cry… but when I go back to Chicago, all is right with the world 😇

He “will be” the “future governor”? Is this some sort of Zeno’s paradox of governance? He will never actually BE the governor, he just will be the future governor in perpetuity?

I first heard kinetic used this way in Iraq in 2003, if memory serves, (and it often doesn’t) but I don’t often hear it outside of military circles.

Top of Maroon Bells! I’ve never been there but I know the mountains there well enough to recognize them from the back side. What a view!!

Buses are a bit wider, sides are way thinner than car doors and the seats are more closely spaced.

It’s to differentiate between “winning” the kinetic battle and “winning the peace”, which to SecDef Kegstand is stupid and silly, even though we’ve known for decades that is by far the most important part of winning a war.

So sad. She was a fighter and truth teller. She will be missed. Thanks for the news.

I’m so sorry. While that doesn’t help you should know people are hearing you and seeing you.

SC terms 18 years. So every president gets two nominations every term.

I know you’re painfully disabled, but you so often bring a smile to my face. Such irreverent wit!

A massive, complete failure to meet the moment. The only profession named in the Constitution and they refuse to do their jobs properly. They are guardians of the Republic yet seem determined to do as much as they can to destroy it. Stephen Colbert’s WHCA speech is more prophetic all the time. Sad.

Its almost like telling lies all day has a psychological and physiological cost.

It’s not about making up for poor performance, it is about adhering to the only ironclad rule in U.S. media: both sides are always equally at fault and coverage must always reflect that, so now they must not do any reporting on this issue to compensate for their perceived “mistakes” under Biden.

Yes and with the eventual defeat of the Romans in 1453, the ottomans made it to the gates of Vienna, the sack of which really would have caused a stir!

The single greatest tragedy of the year 2000 was the theft of this man’s election. Think about how different our world would be if his election had been recognized by the scotus.

You gotta take care of you. You’re a big part of what makes being here rewarding, and we’d miss you if you left, but you have to take care of yourself.

I’m sure the ADL can tell you when it’s ok to quote Goebbels. Hint: it’s when you’re a Republican.

Like the people using propaganda to cause people to attack the Capitol on 6 January, 2021? Like that? Good, let’s go after THAT guy!!

And there’s no USAID Bureau of Humanitarian Affairs to go help, either. Tragic that the U.S. won’t be represented even though until 2 months ago, the U.S. set the global standard for disaster relief.

That was the unity part, then weaponized by republicans with “the American people need to watch what they say…” and so much more.

Yes, that’s how it works. I’m not any kind of fan of this either. My aunt says, “I knew I would get old, but I didn’t know my CHILDREN would get old…”

And the Republicans, after allowing 9/11 to happen, weaponized that great feeling of unity to destroy the country.

I had teachers who yelled, one was Miss Laury who was called Miss Loudmouth she was so bad. As a teacher I never raised my voice, although the tone sharpens pretty quickly sometimes, I never yell.

“Urging”?? How about “demanding”? Or “going to force”? Or something, ANYTHING to let him know he can’t get his way? Sternly worded letters ain’t gonna do it! Fight this guy! He’ll back down, bullies ALWAYS do!

Faith without works is dead. You of all people should know this. What are you going to DO??!? You need to draw clear distinctions and frustrate their work at every turn, and press the Dem senators to do the same! STOP them!!
