Completely agree. Many people also glossing over the fact that political policies also evolve over time. Example, look at all the conservatives advocating for privatizing social security, government ownership of business (stocks) is definitely socialist.

The children are separated from their families BECAUSE at least 1 of the parties decided to bomb the kids' homes.

The irony of Mad King George and Megalomaniac Donald Trump...

Honestly no issues with POTUS not touring disaster sites, because POTUS usually know fuck-all about how to implement disaster recovery.

Yeah, I know you're talking about "war-ravaged Portland", clearly he knows fuck-all about that either.

Wasn't Alaska (Seward's Folly) made a state pretty much to prevent exactly that?

I would actually make book on those bets!

Consider the odds of getting the proof needed to force a payout either way...

I have no issue with BB singing in Spanish. My problem is that he sings hip hop, I hate hip hop. Closest I like to that is electronica, especially trance. But I don't think Armin van Buren would agree to less than 6 hours

The 25th doesn't specify only physical health, just saying.

Additional note, Narcissistic Personality Disorder IS an actual medical diagnosis and Trump satisfies the diagnostic elements literally more than enough.

Yes and no. I completely agree that our military deserves to be paid, no question. However, I think the reason they aren't paid separately from other government workers is to provide the kick in the ass our leaders need to get back to work, and pay everyone

Good movies on the subject as well. I'm a particular fan of "White Man's Burden", great performances all around but ESPECIALLY by Travolta and Belafonte

Correct me if I am wrong but don't spending bills require the 60% supermajority? At least in the Senate.

And there are multiple laws and decisions that say they deserve better. Not necessarily realistic, while you can demand teaching efforts you cannot mandate the student learning, but the laws are there.

It is when you are told to and it's been made clear to you that the job requires you to kiss his ass.

Seem to recall he also said he isn't a doctor and not to take treatment advice from him. Doesn't stop him from giving treatment advice, recommendations to doctors and telling people what "studies" they should pay attention to.

They're too afraid of their network being banned. They shouldn't be. They can get the raw feed from the AP, but by not being in the room they can gain some journalistic integrity by reporting what he said and only allow spin after the fact

Milwaukee's had 3 socialist mayors. Not only did the city survive but they were in fact some of the city's better years. Not saying Mamdani is that guy or NYC is the same city but socialism isn't some kind of death sentence for the city.

Personally I think they just want to let him tell you "...the best physical he ever gave. Doctor thought I was in my 20s. Much better than anyone in the crooked Biden administration. Allot of people are saying it was the best physical ever. I wouldn't be surprised..."

Trump is not smart. Yes, they searched Bolton's house, but he's the kind of paranoiac to a. Keep allot of incriminating stuff about their boss, and b. Keep it somewhere other than their house.

deadmeataru.bsky.social @deadmeataru.bsky.social · 23h

Eventually they might remember this is Trump's 2nd and final (despite "allot of people saying they want another") term, and they're going to need a political identity of their own separate from him.

Botox is an incredibly potent neurotoxin, may still be in the top 10 for causes of death from food consumption. Just saying...

Considering the hundreds of not thousands of studies showing the safety of their product it's possible they never looked for an autism link. They likely want science. They don't need it, the other side isn't using science to back their allegations.
