So... Biden, Obama, Clinton, Carter, Johnson were in on a right wing con job? Were they perpetrators or hapless dupes?

Does that attitude help you win elections?

I think you're right.

If you think about it, Trump's appeal to young men is obvious. 👷‍♂️👮‍♂️🤠

What's a "right wing con job"? The National Prayer Breakfast?
comment in response to post
That's a he, not a they.
comment in response to post
That's exactly what you're doing.

I skimmed through the rest. It's mostly a better written version of Reddit rant, exposing the author's preconceptions.
comment in response to post
After that whopper about the National Prayer Breakfast, I don't believe anything else in the article. Not even worth finishing of the author is going to lie like that.

Now I'm imagining people who ONLY listen to NPR. That would be awful.

I'm neither a Christian nationalist nor a fan of Christian music. What are you talking about?

These photos capture Merkel's impact on the world.

⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ Found the bigot. 🙄

Wait. That says the National Prayer Breakfast is "religious right". EVERY president since Eisenhower has spoken at the breakfast. It's an event for everyone. Ostensibly that author is a religion scholar, but that article reads like college newspaper stuff.
comment in response to post
"They" are saying that? That's not in the article. Who are "they"?
comment in response to post
Wait. You're saying that countries can evaluate who wants to enter and say no if they don't like that person? But that would mean that the United States could do that too. Much to think about. 🤔

Crow?

This is just Christian music. Don't be such a bigot.

Merkel hated Trump. Merkel loved Putin.

Well, Russia and North Korea already cooperate with Iran. Do you actually expect them to go into combat in the Middle East? Russia has their hands full in Ukraine and recently has to abandon their position in Syria.
comment in response to post
What exactly do you think those nations will do?
comment in response to post
It's a celebration of the anniversary of the US Army.

What freedom is hated by celebrating the anniversary of the US Army, the greatest force for freedom in history?

"After 100 days, the allied forces had driven the Iraqis out of occupied Kuwait..." The ground campaign was 100 HOURS, not 100 days. This article wasn't properly checked before publication.

NPR stopped doing real editorial checks years ago.

If I was supposed to be in prison in my home country, that wouldn't be fun. But that's not a reason to break another country's laws. If I sneak into France, my crimes in the United States aren't really their concern.

There are other parts that tell women to pray in public. Also we have a tradition (that precedes the bible!) that women are a vital part of the church. Also, we consider a woman to be the Mother of God.

More like when I ask my boss for something. Maybe she'll say yes. Maybe she'll say no.
comment in response to post
Yes, if I didn't have legal authorization to be in a foreign country and I was in court about that status, yes getting sent home immediately is a real possibility for me.
comment in response to post
That's right!

I am so glad Congress is voting on this. You may not like the outcome, but democracy won. 💙
comment in response to post
Asked. Not told. And if the judge decides, that's the due process.
comment in response to post
Well, if I was in a foreign country and didn't have legal immigration status, yes, I'd expect to be arrested at any time and sent home.

Are you one of those "sola scriptura" fundamentalists?

Women speak in my church all the time. They even do bible readings, the psalms and lead the music.

"Ooh, kicking and screaming, please."
comment in response to post
That's not what the article we're discussing says. Judges are being asked. The judges can review the details and say yes or no. In some cases, they do say yes.
comment in response to post
In immigration cases, if you lose a case, you can be sent home. Not fun for the person involved, but legal. The person isn't being executed by the US government or anything like that. These cases are being reviewed by a judge. Foreigners don't have a right to enter the United States.
comment in response to post
Yup. Court dates and one side asks for the case to be dismissed. Happens all the time in non-immigration cases.
comment in response to post
Well, permissive illegal immigration and widespread "temporary" situations has led to problems, too.
comment in response to post
LOL. You're a Nazi.
comment in response to post
Looks like he got the publicity stunt he was trying for. You should have seen what they did to Trump. He ended up getting arrested.

J. William Fulbright was a segregationist and a signatory of the Southern Manifesto.

Despite this stunt, Padilla is one of the most powerful Americans and will be in office long after Noem is gone.
