  • My entire family and relatives agreed to this. We're pretty much foregoing all adult gift exchanges and sticking to the kids only. No black Friday, no cyber Monday, etc.

    Any big purchases I needed to make I kept out of 4th quarter.

  • I know Hanlon's Razor and what not, but in this case, I do have to wonder if the intent was malicious, or more data from this was gleaned by our adversaries than we realize.

    At this point we know the GOP is compromised with Kremlin assets masquerading as asshats.

  • Trump gave them permission to clap if they wished. I take it as something of a good sign that none of them broke norms and joined in.

  • Personally I don't get that impression of, "Oh, trans people? Fuck em." It's more, "Strike them at their pressure points because look at this kind of fucked up shit they're doing!"

    You never know who the lurkers are, and it refreshes minds of our side to go out and remain on message. It's useful to me in that regards.

    Sadly it's just a reality that the people we need to convince already support what he's doing on this issue.

  • Schumer and Jeffries are useless. The more and more I see of their bullshit antics the more I think they truly are controlled opposition and the incompetence is intentional.

  • That ebola outbreak worried them enough that Obama created a task force to create a rapid response plan for the event of a major pandemic on US soil. We were lucky Obama was in office and surged aid. Now we fucked USAID and left the WHO under Trump.

    Trump basically threw that plan in the trash when covid came.

    Studies would later show Trump's incompetence was responsible for 40% of the deaths. Meaning they were preventable.

  • Title buries the lede on the fucked up shit:

    Electronic Arts, the maker of video games like “Madden NFL,” “Battlefield,” and “The Sims,” is being acquired by an investor group including Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund in the largest private equity-funded buyout in history.

    The investors, who also include a firm managed by Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, and the private equity firm Silver Lake Partners, valued the deal $55 billion.

  • The point is that the Epstein files has been pretty much the only thing to bring cracks in Republican support for Trump.

    Everyone who is upset at this news on Trans health care already know Trump is a useless piece of shit. His base on the other hand will probably cheer this on.

    So driving that wedge that is the Epstein files is imperative if we want to chip away at his approval ratings and hope we can salvage this shit in next year's midterms (I know, a stretch).

  • He probably was the bully let's be honest. Bullies don't usually change.

    Then again there are the self-loathing incel types.

  • We can do better:

    "Make Liberals Cry Again" shirt from 2019.

  • Hey sorry, just wondering if it's still possible to get an invite link to Digg? No worries if not, thanks.

  • Running it like a business is what got the Challenger and Columbia astronauts killed.

    I want it run like a fucking engineer or scientist.

    But worst of all, he's running it like he did when he bankrupted his 6 other fucking businesses.

  • Church shooter today was also Iraq vet.

    2 us flags on back of truck too.

  • No hopes from wet noodle AIPAC invertebrates like Schumer and Jeffries to stand firmly against Trump.

  • Full force to distract from his covering for sex trafficking Pedos?

  • It may be, but in the end does it matter?

    The key question of course is how the maga base is interpreting this.

    Besides Media Matters, are there any groups who track the latest sentiments from right wing outlets, forums, etc?

  • Deer God

    I think I fought that boss in Valheim.

  • This to me is the most damning point one can make against privitization.

    In a world where everything is privately owned, your constitutional rights don't mean jack shit. That goes for 1A and 2A just the same. Communities here and reddit subs exemplify the often backwards and asinine policies go utterly contrary to any notion of free speech. Now apply that in life in general.

    Corporations just become government without any consumer protections.

  • Can we blame the slave era electoral college, considering Hillary did win the popular vote by 3 million?

    That said, I agree. DNC did major damage, to the point it seemed intentional. Howard Dean was DNC chair during the successful organic primaries that gave us Obama over Hillary in the 2008 cycle.

    For whatever reason Dems abandoned that setup and went back to the failed strategy of 2004 primaries to presumably shoehorn Hillary in.
