And I forgot the biggest one of all: socialism. It baffles me how so many ignore public roads, public schools, the military, local police, & all such things are basically "socialist" but we have lost the meaning of that word completely.

Democrats must learn better ways to communicate with those in need of persuasion, when instead, they constantly use what I call "Inside Baseball (Politics)" terminology. This is not a slam on those who interpret such terms differently, but better descriptions are available.

What is irritating about things like this is, if the Dems win back Congress in 2026, then they will be more than welcome back into the fold & with open arms because it is all about money & who it is given to.

Well, how else is the rest of the world not going to see her bawling for her photo ops? I'm surprised she doesn't carry an onion in her pocket to at least bring on a hint of a tear.

pushing the claim that many of the retailers through Amazon are small business owners. Yes, I know this won't be popular here at Bluesky, but people need to understand, for many, it is a luxury to join a boycott & pay higher prices when cheaper prices are available - & I don't mean a buck or two.

Here is the thing: Pelosi is wrong about absolute immunity. He does not have that when it comes to illegal acts. His behavior must be within his official duties (people have wildly misinterpreted the ruling). Now, of course, finding anyone to hold his feet to the fire is the REAL problem.

Here is what pisses me off about the Left: if the positions were reversed, Republicans would be flooding the courts over things like this, as would big business. And their cases would be entirely BS, while RFK Jr's behavior is doing real harm.

Google Bivens Action. You are wrong. This allows for specific Federal LE personnel to be sued for Civil Rights violations, i.e., Constitutional rights.

This is false. No one can give such immunity like that. For LE to receive qualified immunity, certain criteria must be met. One being a lawful act. No LE personnel have absolute immunity, which is what this ass seems to think.

Most idiots have no clue what that means and instead relish ways that actually do disrespect the flag.

I think you are buying into the grand distraction & missing what this is really about: it is about creating the largest & most lucrative fundraising spot so the impotent man not only does not have to travel far, but to hold even more scumbag donors in one place to raise cash. That is it.

Florida, & all that cash just a short stroll down the hall to get it. Besides, who dances anymore? And think of the enticement for all these shallow assholes that bend at the knee to gather in even greater numbers. This hall is going to be the fund raising location amped up at the Nth degree.

president dropping feces on American citizens, to the pardons, to protecting the influential in a sexual abuse ring, to even supporting an adjudicated sex offender, a presiding judge stated, did commit an act of rape. And it is not going to get any better in the foreseeable future.

is not only wrong, but illegal, when it comes to those on that side. It is not about the behavior, but the affiliations of the horrendous actors & there are plenty of examples as proof of this. From the joy of shooting clergy in the head with pepperballs, to a depiction of a sitting

we must have a similar reaction & belief system when it comes to our behavior as a culture & society. Currently, that is not found in American society & it is only getting worse. Mainly, one side clearly uses party affiliation, loyalty, & other disgusting ways to excuse horrible behavior that
