I’m aware, but they’re also unfortunately rare in the US, and we need batteries if we don’t maintain a good trade relationship with China.

They were told they can’t use Signal, so they switched to Israeli Signal? Lol

Nah, Trump got what he wanted, the minerals deal. Now he can keep sanctions on China for longer while we strip mine Ukraine for rare earth minerals.

I can’t believe they have to put these women through this again. Lock this fucking pig up and make sure his soap has no rope.

It’s not deportation if you’re cast out of your own nation. It’s exile.

The exceptions being long-standing, privately owned, trade craft businesses, like Red Wing boots.

Delis and pizza joints will always beat fast food in my opinion.

Same with Cuomo in NYC. Can’t stand the guy, but he took covid as seriously as Fauci suggested. It was rough, since the first hot spot was in New Rochelle and we didn’t know much about it at first. Nevertheless, people bitched and moaned about lost business while refrigerated trucks full of corpses were lining the streets.

This was to protest the budget cuts to social programs. Supporting Israel’s genocide isn’t the only wrongdoing by this administration. There’s plenty to speak out against.

Absolutely agree. We have been in need of change for decades. I’ve been actively trying to engage people in congressional elections and primaries for almost 30 years. That’s what needs to happen. The same people who complain about the appeasement Democrats and scream about term limits are the ones who fail to show up at the polls when we actually have a say.

Democratic midterms get ~20% turnout. Midterm primaries are even less. You know who always shows up? Retirees, and they always pick the more conservative candidates.

David Hogg is a Parkland School shooting survivor that was just named the Vice Chair of the DNC. He’s finally doing something about this from the inside. He allocated $10M to congressional midterm primaries to get out the centrist deadwood and help elect progressives to create a real opposition party for the working class. I’m actually hopeful the message will finally get out after shouting from the rooftops for decades.

I agree they’re not all good. It’s when people paint them all with one brush and refuse to acknowledge good action when I call bullshit. Be loyal to your ideals, not your party.

What Booker and Jeffries are doing by giving the microphone to people on social programs on the steps of the Capitol will reach many more citizens than shouting into an echo chamber. I applaud that. I’m not defending every vote they’ve ever cast, I’m simply recognizing a good action.

The pessimism on here is so diseased that people don’t even seem to have their own ideals other than ‘Democrats bad.’

In many ways, absolutely. I was only referring to displaying impaled enemies on pikes along the roads as a deterrent.

I completely agree. There are a lot of comments that just seem to find a way to keep people down on Democrats, even when they do the right thing. Many of them were the ones shouting Genocide Joe last year. Plenty of them are accelationist leftists or possibly even right-wing propagandists just trying to keep people from a blue wave next November.

Exactly. He’s like a modern day Vlad the Impaler.

We’d prefer they arrest the one in the White House.

You for real? Trump employs a woman who prints out all of the most flattering articles for him every single day. She’s an aide known as his “human printer.”

In the US it’s called Buck Buck, or Johnny-on-a-Pony.
