A reminder of the old adage:

Q: What do you call 9 people sitting at a table with one Nazi?

A: 10 Nazis sitting at a table

You are the company you keep.

As a Chicagoan... trump has ICE trying (desperately) to incite violence. ICE ramps up their violence every day hoping citizens take the bait. When we do, trump will declare martial law. Then hopes to delay elections due to "war". That's not currently working, so he's provoking war with Venezuela

If I saw a rando in a Chucky mask trying to kidnap a person, I would beat the crap out of them.

As if trump cares about the law.

But Sugar Daddy is on the Epstein flight logs.
They don't want to feed kids, they want to fuck them.

His taste is terrible. I'm positive his contractors are putting the cheapest of cheap products and telling him it is marble and solid gold fixtures. He can't tell the difference.

1. His followers put blind faith in whatever he says being true, or they are truly that dumb.
2. They also forget (or never realized) that the biggest flaws in "Obamacare" are because of the GOP. It was literally created based on a GOP plan (Heritage Foundation). There was a single payer option.

"He has tried everything he can to make it as unpainless as possible"
Um... doesn't that mean he has tried to make it "painful"?

It hasn't happened as they are TRYING to make us fight back so trump can declare martial law. But it's coming.

UGH- that should be "I am concerned how many are just worried about being paid...

I changed my thought mid way through and was not caffeinated enough to fully make the change.

That is the most encouraging news I've heard in awhile.

Although I worry how many is just worry about being paid with the shutdown (meaning, it's about money, not ethics).

Or that the federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour. That is barely $15k a year for a 40 hr work week BEFORE taxes.

Was there any doubt? Seriously. Did any doubt this?

That being said, I really hope the next Dem president has the courage to tear it down. Say it was too large for their needs and they can find better use of the space.

Once our troops are paid by a private entity, are they even our troops anymore?
And what if they are being paid by another country like China or Russia?

It wasn't just the capitulating. It was their utter eagerness to be first in line to capitulate and announce it to the world with joy and smug satisfaction*.

(*trying to avoid the use of the word "pride" as we know they shun that word now).

Because your data is worth more than your patronage.

I'm shocked this administration doesn't just have a price list on the white house web page.

Commute sentence: $50m
Medal of Freedom: $10m
Reduce Tariff: $100m
...

If only they held the "old" republicans to the same standards they are now touting for the young ones.

When they tell you they plan on throwing out the constitution, believe them.
