It's pretty messed up that the BBC and al Jazeera are two of the best news sources in the US with our number one, Fox, being one of the worst.

If somdoesnt think there are war criminals on both sides, they are biased. If they think this justifies Israel's conservative governments actions, they are probably bigoted.

People don't think Republicans are responsible. They think Republicans will lower their taxes.

Do you think the core point is wrong, or do you think it's more important to be technically correct?

How so? A smart woman with good policies who had served her country for decades is somehow he worst person ever because she lost an election to a con man helped enormously by the Russian government?
Hillary, like the rest of us, failed to understand conservatives wanted fascism.

I think you underestimate how much conservatives would sabotage the country to insure a black woman failed.

This is part of a larger conservative plan. Stop paying for Americans to go to college and import immigrants to do the high paying jobs for less. Deport the immigrants doing low paying jobs and have the uneducated Americans do these.
70 million Americans voted for this.

Schumer is a terrible communicator. Some people were not meant to be in front of a microphone. Some are better st leading from behind. We need a better face for Democrats in the senate.

If Russia stops fighting, there will be no war. If Ukraine stops fighting, there will be no Ukraine.

That's the point, they are sabotaging the federal government to justify dismantling.

I agree with all of this but think they should go much further. A single currency, functioning as a single economic zone for trade negotiations and a security arrangement with cooperation.
In a fantasy world I would have a common language and education system based on it.

What Africa needs is more cooperation between nations, not competition. They need something like the EU or US states. Working together as a block they would be a global power, as a bunch of independent nations the world powers have so much more leverage.

I get the carbon tax, it's a regressive tax, they should do a tax and return for carbon where all revenue is distributed back to citizens.
Is he saying he wants to end the relationship with British royalty? I'm against royalty, so this sounds good.

While public broadcasting is under threat, the flat out pro Trump propaganda supported by Voice of America never has it's funding targeted. Now it's going to be led by Kari Lake, funneling hundreds of millions into Trump branding.

Rich people do not want Congress's pay to go up. This way, only the wealthy can afford to be in Congress. Do not wish for Congress people to suffer economically because the ones that do suffer most like you while the rich sit on the side lines and laugh at another division they have created.

A good solution could be tying congress's pay yo minimum wage.

The deal had been, import skilled immigrants to turn good paying college jobs into less well paying jobs. Then stop paying for the poor and middle class to attend college, they are not needed. Stop poor immigrants from coming so Americans can work the low skilled jobs. For the rich, profit.

The wealthy have gotten wealthier faster than any time in human history, and your complaint is it didn't happen fast enough? They need more wealth quicker?

I question someone who says something that sounds exactly like the nonsense Trump supporters said for the past four years. It makes me think it is being started by foreign actors with bad intentions.

What does world leaders have to do with Trumps inauguration, other than the effort Putin and Netanyahu put into getting him elected?

This is delusional talk and not what you want to say to be taken seriously. Trump isn't going to be removed, not by the 25th and not because of election fraud. Why? Because this would require a majority of Republicans to choose country over party and oligarchs money, not going to happen.

Unfortunately, they are so uninformed that when we say fascist they don't even know Mussolini was the father of fascism. They assume it's comparing them to Hitler and specifically that they are going to genocide Jewish people. I'm sure a lot of this is being willfully ignorant.

Trump gives them people to hate and feel superior to. Economic anxiety was just an excuse, so they didn't have to admit the truth. They were voting for fascism.

They say you get one unbelievable, over the top plot point. Trumps administration has completely blown past that.
