You can’t be a global evil if you don’t diversify.

No, you’re wrong. If you pay into the system, you’re entitled to your fair share…nothing more, nothing less. These workers are asking for what they’re entitled to.

I remember saying it’s hard to believe this could get stupider back in 2016.

They will do or say whatever it takes to achieve their goals. It’s really that simple.

I don’t disagree with this. Not sure toppling one dictator for a potential theocracy is progress.

As I understand it, there are only two well-backed Russian/Syrian military strongholds left. With Russian military so strained by Ukraine, how long, if at all, are these bases likely to last? How will that affect Putin’s military future? Will it affect his ability to govern? Will Russian’s revolt?

Yes. I’ll never understand it.

IMHO, Trump is an empty vessel, devoid of reason, intellect, compassion or empathy. He’s single-minded and his entire focus is building his wealth, increasing his power and securing a legacy. He’ll use anyone, anything and in any way to achieve it. Any supposed redeeming qualities is purely fiction.

SCOTUS said that our government is for sale. They didn’t set the price, but, then again, billionaires didn’t ask. Abolish Citizens United.

They chose to do the right thing…for them. We chose to call them on it. Now, they can piss and moan about our choice…but it’s a two-way street.

Trump - pick someone who’ll make them lose their sh*t and then at the last minute, pull them and substitute with who I really want but would be totally unacceptable without the dance.

Every now and then Trump’s level of stupid rushes in like a prodigal son…and then I think ‘oh yeah’

I believe some of these folks who voted against their own interests and in favor of Trump are beginning to realize what they’ve done. It’s too little, too late but it’s something.

The coup didn’t end. It’s been a prolonged and sustained assault. Trump and his sycophants relentlessly questioned the legitimacy of the election and sowed seeds of doubt in all of our systems until they finally succeeded. What happens now is anyone’s guess.
