Re: The MAGA Government Superthread
There's been a lot of discussion about what is happening with Donald's cabinet picks. It seems, to me, that these picks are not about qualifications or 'shaking the establishment' but are a product of putting together a cabinet with some shared goals. Not that I want to Nazi this, but, if we look ba...

Re: the news??
I haven't really watched televised news in years. I stick with news aggregation and read stories I'm interested in. I've never been a celeb person. I don't care about them. I have nothing against them, but it has never interested me nor do I care about what they have to say about politics. Absolutel...

Re: The Cabinet
Look, if you're going to have to endure this, the next 4 years, then you're going to have to laugh at some of it. The best way that Matt Gaetz can get confirmed is by recess appointment, his favorite time of the day.

Re: Ukraine invades Russia!
Think about this, Brad. It could be Russia’s Tet Offensive. When the US government telling us the war was under control, the Tet Offensive was in-your-face evidence otherwise. This has the possibility of destabilizing Putin’s hold on power. Possibly. If Russians find out. It won't be headline news ...

Re: Hamas fires 7000 rockets at Israel, starting major war
Israel is looking to take the land. This requires displacing people and moving in your own citizens which is a war crime. Another in a series that will go unpunished.

Re: Elon Musk takes his ball and goes home
The Elon-Trump thing was scripted.
Donald rarely goes to where he can't control things, and when he does, such as the NABJ, it goes...poorly.

Re: Trump has officially lost his mind
So tonight Trump is doing an interview by Elon Musk, who has bought Trump. What could possibly go wrong? Who will do the most damage to themself, Elon or Donald? Will it be a tie? I can't see any way in which this works out positively for either of them. I bet you Don Jr is behind this. It probably...

Re: Kamala Harris: Historic Presidential Candidate
One thing Kamala Harris has never done, or at least I don't think has ever done, is dumping the body of a bear cub in Central Park.

Good for the prisoners and their families. This however has a down side. It encourages Russia to arrest foreigners on bogus charges and stockpile them for the next chance to get all their master spies and saboteurs back. The long term solution is for the world to agree on some kind of moratorium on...

Re: 2024 Presidential Election
My question was... I still can't get past the fact that the country is letting a rapist run for president. Not only run but with a chance of winning. The USA might elect a rapist. Howard Dean let out a scream and it killed his chances, Donald is a rapist and...nothing. Does anyone care to explain th...

Re: 2024 Presidential Election
Clinton is currently not running for president and is unlikely to ever do so again. He's not relevant. It's 2024, Clinton hasn't been president for a while now. This is about Trump. If you're trying to justify things by saying "but Clinton did it", then know that's a horrible justification.

But now he's withdrawing his plan to give Trump $45 million a month. I guess he's not interested in throwing good money after bad. I'm not convinced he was ever going to do it. A lot like buying Twitter. His ego says these things so the Elonbros will say "Master move, sir". In the case of...
