Yeah that's what @nakedfrog doesn't seem to understand that I'm just pointing things out.. not joining the MAGA crowd and fighting Greenman and RedSquirrel for MOST VALUABLE PRIMATE.

I want dems to win.. but they're going to adapt and take on some new positions that're actually popular vs just ethically right.

Do I like it? No but I'd like a victory in the election and dem control a whole lot more than arguing with you all on this forum over what the mistakes were that led us all into this mess.

What you don't seem to understand is that your brain is broken and you badly need therapy. Can you provide examples of positions the DNC holds that are unpopular? No, it's all vibes all the way down. Seek help.

Lead article right now on the front page of The New York Times. Scholars are saying the USA is in a full blown constitutional crisis right now.

This is paywall penetrating for 14 days, i.e. until Feb. 24, 2025:

Trump’s Actions Have Created a Constitutional Crisis, Scholars Say

Law professors have long debated what the term means. But now many have concluded that the nation faces a reckoning as President Trump tests the boundaries of executive power.

What part of the electoral map do you not understand?

If anyone needs therapy more than me it's you.. because you're in complete denial that dems have got everything perfect going forward.

Just a reminder.. we lost 4 senate seats, we lost the presidency, we lost the SCOTUS and we came up short in the house.

Yep I'm JUST IMAGINING things.. all vibes!

Politics is like darwinism.. you have to adapt in order to survive.

Clearly the electorate wants the browns and non-binary folks punished. Maybe we should start there.

/s because of course that would be wrong and unamerican.

Sometimes doing the right thing is hard.

Uh, when have I ever said anything remotely indicative of that? You're fucking mental, dude.

Yes, you ARE imagining that there are far more immigrants in this country than there really are, and that they're committing far more crimes than are being reported. That's all vibes based, from your personal interactions causing you to see enemies everywhere; thus your need for therapy. One of us believes in genocide, the other does not, I posit that the genocidal one is the one with mental health issues.

See, this is why you get cast in with MAGA. Rather than actually refute any of my points, you double down on justifying your genocidal beliefs. Vibes, vibes, vibes. Get help.

You expect people who've been victims for millenia to just forgive and forget?

Good luck with that and see how far that gets you..

I totally understand why Alina Habba is MAGA.. she has family history similar to mine. And she will NEVER sell out her family and what they went through for millenia over some self righteous clowns on the internet.

Part of me actually admires that about her..
 
I got a three day account ban notice from Reddit yesterday for attacking the identity of a vulnerable community lol

I wrote back an appeal saying the only people I have attacked are Trump/Musk supporters and by your own website's definition of what a vulnerable class is, they are certainly not in it. In fact, their ideology is to attack those actual vulnerable classes.

Well they overturned the ban today because only piece of shit Trumpers think they are a vulnerable group :tearsofjoy:
 
Yeah, this seems very on-brand.

The FCPA’s intent is in part to prevent American firms from fueling rampant public corruption that undermines the rule of law in many parts of the world. Over time, the FCPA’s rules have grown into bedrock principles of how American businesses operate overseas.

The FCPA became law in 1977, barring all Americans and certain foreign issuers of securities from paying bribes to foreign officials. The law was amended in 1998 to apply to foreign firms and people who caused such bribes to take place within the United States.

Some good news, even if temporary.

Trump’s Supreme Court Immunity Ruling Just Came Back to Bite Him

Donald Trump’s sweeping immunity is actually proving a hindrance in a lawsuit.
newrepublic.com newrepublic.com

A federal judge ruled Monday that Trump’s FBI must disclose records from its Mar-a-Lago case file, complying with a FOIA request by Business Insider’s Jason Leopold. U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell decided that the Supreme Court’s decision—combined with his return to the White House and its executive privileges—has insulated Trump enough from further criminal prosecution to allow the release of documents.

The goal is clear.. give the executive unchecked power to be as corrupt as possible. If they ignore judge orders then that's basically the end of a functioning America.

DOGE explicitly defied the judge’s order in the deferred resignation case by sending an email to employees this evening telling them that they can still sign up for the program. Today’s order by the judge directed the government to not solicit any new takers until the judge ruled on the petition.
