Lobbying needs to gtfo and be illegal already. We don’t talk enough about it because the America is on a tilt-a-whirl as it is

And more government oversight!

Sorry idr if this from source article or one linked in it:

Training was slashed from 16 weeks to six, with sit-ups eliminated because recruits couldn’t handle them.

These nazis are so fucking pathetic in every conceivable way lol

it would be so much funnier if they weren’t destroying lives and killing people

This article is crazy it is just covering major newsworthy stuff in like a paragraph because it is the GOP and they are much more organized on messaging

Trump told reporters at the White House Tuesday afternoon that he’s in favor of shutdown-related RIFs to the federal workforce, and that “when you shut it down, you have to do layoffs.”

“We’d be laying off a lot of people that are going to be very affected,” Trump said. “They’re going to be Democrats.”

“A lot of good can come down from shutdowns,” he added. “We can get rid of a lot of things that we didn’t want.”

And

A mass email assigning blame to congressional Democrats is an unusual step for agencies to take ahead of a funding lapse, and marks an escalation in rhetoric.

Aka they are telling us they are firing a lot of Democrat employees but it’s okay.

I’m glad. And here is another resource too : Could American Evangicals SPOT the Antichrist???

Even if you’re not at all secular, it is useful context for talking to people who are more secular.

Well since you asked, this is just from his first term. There is a link to the top for his second term but honestly, I am afraid to read it.

Aka scrambling

Nope because he was more healthy and like I said… probably didn’t have world leaders trying to shake his hand super hard as some sign of superiority. Wouldn’t needle biden’s ego but you know trump cares what people think

It looks more like where a thumb would grasp his hand, closer to the thumb than the center where an IV would be.

I wonder how many people who hate him have to shake his hand and try to hurt him a little while doing so.

That said I would be actually amazed that the trump white house ever told the truth about anything. And like someone else said it’s not the picture of health to bruise from handshakes

Fuck, he really is winning

Now you’re just being a jek. Dude enjoyed his teslas, so what? I appreciate that when he found his values didn’t align with the company he went and did something about it instead of slapping on some stupid “before musk was crazy” sticker.

Get off your high horse and learn to just appreciate when people change their minds.

You should include a trigger warning with that pic 4real

Yeah sorry I genuinely don’t understand the people saying call 911 as some form of protest or help for the victim like the cops aren’t gonna show up to support the white dudes totallyinsisting they should be there. The best you accomplish is making a dispatchers job more difficult and they are the real first responders, worst is clogging lines for an actual emergency.

I opened the comments hoping to get some better context on the park itself. I’m looking forward to watching this, it’s exactly what I wanted so thank you.

damn I hope it isn’t an unfortunate choice of words

I kinda feel like I’m taking crazy pills* I’m seeing examples of dictatorship left and right, six months after taking office, and mostly all I really see are jokes and team cheering or jeering.

A journalist was fired for speaking against a person in political power. Not only that, the offense was just calling someone hateful. Meanwhile slurs and hateful dehumanizing names and actual made up diagnosis are used to put down anyone critical of anyone in the current administration that is currently in Trump’s good graces.

*I’m aware that we are humans giving knee jerk reactions, and often these posts are a form of stress relief. It doesn’t stop me from feeling like Chicken Little

I also just wanna add this journalist has some fantastic writing skills and damn now I wanna look up his entire career. I hope someone snatches him up and I’m really proud and heartened to see a public figure face the consequences of standing up to fascism and still hold their head high. To publicly say they stand by their statements and not apologize.

Amazing, came to the comments to see if anyone pointed this out and it’s not even a parent comment.

I find this scary not funny.

Wait he did that? Wtf

Wow there’s an ICE Barbie? I knew about Patriot Barbie and pretty sure she owns that one herself. Idk be offended at human nature I guess for the impulse to dehumanize women they don’t like… but they are also both awful so I don’t particularly feel bad for them when they are actively trying to ruin lives.

Although I don’t doubt they take it as a compliment either since for many of them a woman’s value is proportionate to their looks.

Weird I didn’t see the second half of your comment when I first replied. You’re absolutely right and I’m terrified. The social-political environment and economy that allowed the rise of the nazis in Germany have been happening in America for decades. There are so many parallels and then within 6 months in office a LOT of big stuff is happening really fast. Federal institutions completely gutted, harassment of the employees by their government, deportation of citizens, removing birthright citizenship, and now wanting a medical diagnosis for anyone who disagrees with them.

It is absolutely terrifying and I no longer feel safe sharing my opinion anywhere because I don’t know how dangerous it will be in the future.
