You can only drop something so many times before it actually breaks, and we never really fixed the cracks caused by the civil war.
Reconstruction ended early after Johnson took office and as a result we didn’t end segregation in the south until a century after the war ended.
There are people alive now who still remember segregation and some of them liked it that way. And now they’re empowered, both metaphorically and literally, thanks to the gerontocracy we’ve created.
We’re going to tear ourselves apart trying to undo 60 years of progress over the next 4 years.
I feel like if we pull through this as an intact nation it’s not going to be recognizable as the nation we grew up in until long after we’re all gone. It’s going to take generations to clean up this mess.

That sounds like something he would do on July 4th

that they were enjoying themselves and showing a convivial face rather than a military face.

If he didn’t want soldiers that were excited to be there, then why did he have them screened for political association to make sure they were his supporters?

Absolutely not.
I’ll hate the voter and the Homunculus.
Without him the trash would still be hiding in the woodwork.

As an American, it would be a really good idea to temporarily kick the US out and make it the G6. We have absolutely no business driving policy with Trump at the wheel.

We also have no business being in NATO at the moment either.

The time for 'strongly worded letters" was over the day they stormed the Capitol.

12 minutes at a time, 3 times a day.
Unless I’m at work.
40 minutes per day 4 times between 5:00a-1:30p

It only tastes bitter to those of us who actually opposed it overseas too.
The people that supported that kind of behavior are reveling in this right now.

They barely won this time (even with possible tampering in PA) and 1/3 of registered Democrats and stayed home.
I’d be willing to bet the people are sufficiently motivated to get off their asses finally, so it’s unlikely they’ll give us the opportunity to flip the house and Senate next year.
So I’d wager no election in '26 and a rigged election in '28 because Trump will be too far gone to prop up by then.

Why come here to ask if you should do it, then argue with every single person who tells you it’s a bad idea?
It seems like you made up your mind that you’re going to do it anyway but you needed someone to pat you on the back and tell you you’re doing the right thing.
If you really need someone to stroke your ego that badly and reinforce your terrible decision, then deep down you must know it’s the wrong thing to do, but if you could just get one person to tell you you’re in the right then maybe it’ll all work out.
Well here you go:

Go for it buddy, do your thing.

I’ll be waiting for the follow up post about how it went the same way, or possible worse than, it did the first time.

Digging it back up will only do more damage, then in a few years you’ll feel terrible about bringing it back up after it was settled.

That’s why he stole it in the first place.
He wanted some kind of leverage over Trump and his cronies so he took all their data, and almost certainly installed backdoors in every system he accessed.

🤞 Please send him to CECOT 🤞

I thought the Musk-Trump feud was political theatre but this sounds like it has actual venom in the words.
Maybe the honeymoon is really over

Let’s hope it happens before the 2 year mark so it counts as a full first term for Vance

I hate the person that Trump has turned me into.
Don’t get me wrong I hate the people that Trump has turned my parents into more, but my first thought was:

“His supporters will be disproportionately affected by this because the Bible belt is where most of the hurricanes hit. Good, The fewer of them the better”.

A decade ago I would have been appalled by that level of apathy toward other people’s suffering even if I didn’t agree with them or their ideology.
But he continues to do increasingly horrible things as time passes and yet somehow his support never waivers. The fact that his support only seems to grow somehow despite his rhetoric of hate increasing makes me think of his supporters as less and less human everyday.
I hate that I’ve become that person, but here I am.
I genuinely don’t give a shit if they all drink unpasteurized milk and inject bleach anymore.

Probably a raccoon, especially If you had any disturbed soil anywhere in the garden.
They like to dig up freshly disturbed soil to look for things to eat.
I had one dig up and a peach sapling I had just planted the day before looking for goodies in the fresh dirt.

So you guys think it’s VEO 3, Sora, or an in house program they used?

They want them to have kids, they just want the kids to have the most awful upbringing they can force on them.
They want them to grow up poor with no chance at higher education so they’ll be forced to work low wage physically demanding jobs and to not have any idea of what kind of lives they should be living.
