Is there a single place in the world where democracy is improving? It sure seems like we’re all slowly backsliding together.

“even”? “fair”? that doesn’t sound very capitalist to me

Steve Bannon, former President Donald Trump's chief White House strategist and 2016 campaign CEO, will remain free from serving a four-month prison sentence as he appeals his recent conviction on two counts of criminal contempt of Congress. CBSNews

Lock Him Up, indeed.

Good.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State…

Literally. It’s necessary to the security of our free state.

For once, let there be consequences

Oh the circus is just setting up the bigtop. Wait til MTG runs for speaker.

While the stated goal is to hasten Ukrainian grain exports, the agreement may also help defuse tensions over grain prices between Ukraine and Poland a time when some international support for Kyiv’s efforts to throw back Russia’s invasion may be fraying.

Agricultural exports have brought one of the biggest threats to European unity for Ukraine since Russia invaded.

Seems like a win-win to me. Again, Russian aggression is uniting its neighbors behind a common cause.

“He’s continuing to drive his car off the cliff. He leaves his lawyers in a no-win position. And then after it’s over, he’ll probably call for the execution of the judge like he called for the execution of [newly retired former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark] Milley. It is a zero-sum game, and it’s a game he loses every time.”

Either you’re a sycophant or a traitor in this toddler’s mind.

In the past six months, Czup has arranged the funerals of a 37-year-old killed by complications from diabetes, a 54-year-old killed by lung disease and a 54-year-old killed by a stroke, among many others who died prematurely.

“How long until this is me?” the funeral director wondered, noting his stress-filled 18-hour days and unhealthy diet.

How many of these people didn’t have health care, and didn’t catch their illnesses in the early stages? This country desperately needs universal health care.

Tons of Idaho women tried to be patients, but then the lunatic politicians made medicine illegal

“As of Sepember 30, at least 571 people have been killed and 1,947 other people have been injured in 487 shootings.” It’s hard to keep up with the violence when there are nearly two mass shootings every day.

Buck then advised Trump to “do what a lot of us do. Go into a room by yourself, yell for a little bit, and come out and be the person that really personifies what we want in a leader in this country.”

I’d like a president that doesn’t need to be spoken to like he’s 6 years old.

Specific concessions thrown out include greater Democratic representation on committees, forcing votes on Democratic bills and spiking votes on certain controversial Republican legislation.

Some great initial ideas. If McCarthy needs Democratic votes to keep his job, the Dems better get something meaty from that coalition.

I can feel my vaccine vibrating inside of me!
