Peaceful protesters.

I have seen the mush-brains sit there and imbibe outrageous whoppers like "Biden had a terrible economy and we have to wait while Taco with his brilliant Business Brain (TM) help us to dig out of the horrible mess Biden and his autopen left us" so I know they are capable of believing outrageously ridiculous horse manure.

Taco and his thugs are corrupt as hell.

Fuuuuuck that noise. I hope someone at a state level finds a way to get her locked up for charges that Taco couldn't pardon her for.

It will be interesting to watch all the sAvEtHeChIldReN qtards trying to spin this if Taco were to release this child molester.

While they are doing that, I sure hope some people take it upon themselves to ask these idiots when "The Storm" is supposedly coming? And how does freeing Ghislaine the child molester figure into this supposed "Storm", LOL?

I'm not at all surprised by this, TBH. For all the dunking there is on boomers, they spent their formative years during the Civil Rights era, no?

And Gen Y (at least the younger ones) spent their formative years just when things like social media and forums and so on really got going. Where people are and have been trying to curate and groom more white supremacists. Often behind screen names, etc...

Welcome to the kakistocracy.

The library systems in Colorado that I have used are simply fantastic. Combine with Prospector if they don't have something in a particular library and....chef's kiss.

These are the dolts that sit there and lap up blatant nonsense about how Taco and thugs are trying to "dig out of" some kind of alleged mess that Biden totally didn't leave behind.

I will seriously talk to chuds that are doing just fine and claim that they were not doing fine under Biden. When pressed, they will admit that, well, they weren't really doing all that bad at all, but that maybe it's a problem that someone like ME (and of course POC, and LGBTQ, etc) was also not actually miserable under Biden.

Not even kidding about that last part. These assholes actually object to liberals such as myself doing well. They are fine; but having others they don't approve of doing fine is not acceptable. When that video went viral in his first term about how he was not hurting who he was supposed to be hurting, that went viral for a reason. Because so many people had conversations much like I have had with these people - it's not enough that they are doing okay; others have to be miserable, and the miserable people need to be people unlike them. If you voted blue, you should be living hand to mouth.

Gosh, what happened? Just about a year ago we had an economy that was the envy of the world.

Now we have to get the truth of jobs numbers via third party private sources instead of, uh, having the government actually trying to tally and release those numbers to the best of its ability.

I wish there was a way to have libredirect handle this kind of thing. Not sure if there is another plugin that would do it...

To the conservative mindset it's always "dangerous" if democracy were to break out somewhere...

She might be right about young people not having much context as a general rule - I've seen this kind of Dunning-Kruger thing before when someone in their teens/twenties first comes across something and they start to have some political awakening. Think of the way that some people fall into the most maximalist of positions on the spectrum and how cringe it often seems, often to later versions of that very person, LOL.

Anyway, I think the cracks on Israel being some united front on our "special relationship" with them and as far as the average U.S. citizen supporting it w/o question have been starting long before TikTok was even a thing.

And most of the people I've talked to over the years, or things I've seen others write/say online has had plenty of context. Hell, Chomsky has been out there talking about this for decades. It's just that the gatekeeping corporate media chokehold on people being able to talk to one another about this, en masse has been loosened, starting in the late 90s.

Used to be someone could yell "anti-semite" at anyone questioning us doing Israel's every whim and that was the end of the conversation. That tactic's effectiveness started to erode with the rise of the 'net. Are some of the people that obsess about Israel/Gaza and Jews/Palestinians anti-semitic? Of fucking course they are. Is everyone? Hell no.

It's kind of like the way very few people (except The Young Turks because they are always talking Israel-Israel-Israel) seem to be commenting about his ties to Israel.

They should ask her about that silly binder stunt, too.

I'd love to see her dragged onto the stand and get her under oath about a lot of things.

If/when the orange skidmark's time passes, she will have a LOT to answer for.

Choice of the RAW Story folks, I guess. I'm assuming they are quoting Karoline who is reading off what she was told to read.

I still laugh when I look at that pic of her. She looks like a blow-up doll... 🤣

Yeah, but BidenSoOld and Kamala cackles - and doesn't have a penis - so here we are.

Right, survivors = witnesses.

I bet most people had to look him up after the shooting. I cannot count how many times someone said "who?" when they heard about him getting shot.

So put political pique aside this Thursday and be grateful to God, or wherever your faith tradition takes you, and for the people who sit beside you at the table.

I have always found it rather curious just how fundamentally arrogant believers tend to be. Note the way that they capitalize the word "God", which presumably is in reference to Yahweh/Allah/Jehovah, but just assume that the reader is from the Abrahamic strain of belief and just accept this conceit as a normal. Man has had many gods and goddesses over the course of history, but a certain kind of person can just write "God" and it is just accepted that this capitalization means one of those many gods: the Abrahamic one.

But even more so, especially as time goes on and more and more nonbelievers are in this country, the absolute arrogance of assuming the entire audience is even in a faith tradition is really quite something.

Those that say they are religiously unaffiliated are now at 28%.
