Psychopath.
Sorry man. But EVERYTHING I've seen about Netanyahu is just BLOODLUST! They totally leveled Gaza and the Palestine territories they occupied.
THIS IS NOT THE WAY!
I used to be a trump and Israel supporter, but my God! How much blood thirst is enough?
Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope.
When the orange Cheeto lost to Biden and approved the execution of Pence, ("so what") that was the end. This worthless sore loser POS was hell bent on mass destruction.
No dipshit, you don't deserve the Nobel Peace Prize, or to put your name or image on passports, park passes, or $250 bills. No, stupid, we don't want or need to see your ugly mug or name on the Kennedy center or federal buildings.
Just go quietly, into that dark, nameless abyss you crawled out from.
You have made America a much worse place, you divisive fuck head!
Now if you meant ad homenim then that you would mean you insulted me because you can't carry out a logical conversation/ argument.
If you meant ad hoc that would mean you're just piling bullshit, because you can't have a logical conversation.
You are thoroughly confusing me! Did i insult you because I couldn't hold a logical conversation, or did you insult me? Did I pile on extraneous bullshit or was that you?
Honestly, your ad homenim, ad hoc, non sequitur nonsense has me thoroughly confused.
Your cult remark was an ad homenim remark (you might want to go look that up to refresh your memory) .
Just sayin.
Never took it personally.
But some "less enlightened people" seem to relish in besmirching Reagan's name with Trump's.
Present company excluded, I'm sure, of course!
I'm sorry. My bad.
I forgot to mention unemployment insurance and workman's compensation insurance costs.
OK let's talk about the Iran contra issue.
I watched the hearings on CSPAN EVERY SINGLE DAY!
So. Ollie North overcharged the Iranians for weapons and used the proceeds to fund the Contras. What exactly is your problem with that? Check one box only please.
He overcharged the Iranians for arms.
He used the proceeds to stave off a legitimately evil, hateful, genocidal regime.
One box only please!
Did trump not understand the Declaration of Independence when they read it to him and drew stick figures for him?
Well you insulted my hero. Not trump! I would consider trump and Reagan as 2 poles on the opposite sides of a sphere. Think north and south pole. Trump is actually more like a virus that caused a genetic mutation. No joke.
I've been the employer that hired people to do their job. Trust me, it's not just taking money in, and laughing all the way to the bank. Every dollar that i saved is another dollar I can sink into the company or pay higher wages. "OH wait, company xyz offered you 10% more? I can match that" . I need a buffer. I was not a "capitalist class" . How many complainers have actually run a business that employed people, and had to meet payroll , and had to meet payroll taxes and keep their employees and customers happy?
I was there when HIV became an issue. We had no idea what caused it, how it spread, or what to do about it. It took some time. I was there!
No Reagan didn't "laugh" when gay people died. - give me 1 unbiased, verifiable link to substantiate that claim.
I'm very sorry but we are 39 trillion dollars in the hole, as laudable as providing state hospitals may have been, we can not afford it at this time. Find a better way. So, what, we'd be like 44 trillion in debt. Is that the inheritance you want to leave your kids?
As a business owner I've had to balance budgets for decades. I would've loved to buy that greatest, tech wizzbang thing; it would save/ make so much money. Sorry. Just cant afford it. Like it or not, the BBB allows companies to fully depreciate an asset in the 1st year (i had to wait decades) freeing up more cash to pay higher wages.
I hate DJT. He is everything Reagan was not.
I WON'T ALLOW ANYONE TO SULLY THE NAME OF REAGAN BY ASSOCIATING IT WITH TRUMP TO TRY TO FURTHER THEIR POLITICAL AGENDA! IT IS DISINGENUOUS TO SAY THE LEAST.
DJT and the maga agenda must be hamstriged, hogtied, disabled, overridden, axed, rendered useless, shutdown, crippled, discombobulated, to say the least.
Total B.S. I was on topic. Trump and MAGA are not the philosophical offspring of Reagan. They are a mutation. They hijacked the party. Trump is the polar opposite of Reagan.
Reaganomics beat the shit out of whatever Carter was doing in the 70's; gas shortages with long lines, hyperinflation, mortgage rates went from 8.85% to 16.64% in 4 years. You may well not like Reaganomics, but it damn well saved the country from stagflation.
Reagan was a self deprecating optimist who believed that America is that shining city on a hill whose best days lie before her. Trump is a loud mouth, divisive, egotistical piece of shit, who is only out for himself and will persecute you to the end of the earth for saying anything bad about him. Their policies, politics, personalities, agendas, world view, are completely opposite.
It's really not difficult to disagree without being disagreeable. I think we all pretty much agree that we need to get this chubby, cheating, Cheeto in chief outta there. In the meantime, liberals and conservatives can have lively debates without making it personal.
You're just not too bright, so I'll bite my tongue. But Trump has nothing to do with Reagan. Full stop.
Hey brainiac!
When Reagan was lying in the hospital after someone tried to kill him, most visitors were turned away. One of his first visitors was his good friend, speaker of the house, Tip O'Neil.
Reagan lit up when here saw his friend. Tip O'Neil knelt down and prayed for his friend and kissed him on the forehead.
People who take politics personally, jab the other side, and question their motives are straight up wack, haters. That's not sane.
Dude.
Reagan and Trump. No comparison.
I know.
I was there.
The guy is clearly insane and out of control. This is squarely on the heads of JD Vance and Marco Rubio for not invoking the 25th amendment. This was obviously not a military target and was designed to cause mass civilian casualties and death.
OH HELL NO! Not in our name!
Well the Epstein files are bad, no doubt, but the chubby Cheeto-in-Chief just keeps getting worse and worse by killing more and more people.
I don't think that the acts of his last 2 administrations can be compared to the Epstein files. I think they are just a furtherance of his psychopathic personality.
Sexual slavery is really, really, really, really bad. No doubt. Murdering people (like the Venezuelan boat strikes, Iranian school girls...) and starving people (like the Cuban embargos) is just a whole 'nuther level of evil, that is just a further step into a mountainous shit load of psychopathy.
It's not one (Epstein files) or the other (Iran war, boat strikes, starving Cubans); it's both and!
To wit: He did all of that shit to children and sex slaves AND did all of that other crap to other human beings. It is additive, not exclusive or separate or explanatory.
Hope I'm clear.

A federal appeals court panel expressed skepticism Friday about the Trump administration’s view that courts are powerless to stop the construction of the White House ballroom now that the East Wing had been demolished.
Two members of a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit repeatedly pressed administration lawyers about its argument that President Donald Trump’s pet project — now well underway — could not be stopped by the courts even if it was found to be illegal, because it was too far along and involved significant national security interests.
“When did it become a fait accompli?” Judge Patricia Millett asked. “If this were complete lawlessness by the government … it couldn’t be stopped?”
“On these theories, I think that’s right,” replied Yaakov Roth, a Justice Department attorney.
Millett, an Obama appointee, peppered Roth with questions about the extent of the Trump administration’s view of its power to “move fast and break things” without being subject to legal challenge.
“If the government decides, very quickly, to bulldoze the Statue of Liberty — the people whose ancestors that was the first thing they saw coming to this country, but the government moved too fast — nothing can be done?” the judge asked.
“I think that’s right, yes,” Roth responded.
A federal judge in March halted construction on the ballroom during the legal battle, but the D.C. Circuit quickly paused the ruling, allowing construction to continue while the litigation is ongoing.
The Friday exchange underscored the Trump administration’s full-throttle effort to defend Trump’s massive reconstruction project, which the president has made clear is a personal priority, along with other aesthetic and architectural ambitions he has across Washington. Millett was joined in her skepticism by Judge Bradley Garcia, a Biden appointee.
Judge Neomi Rao, a Trump appointee, questioned whether the plaintiff in the lawsuit, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, had a basis to sue in the first place, especially when set against Trump’s claim that the ballroom would serve as a critical national security bulwark in addition to an event space.
Roth told the panel that the Trust’s “aesthetic” concerns about the White House must take a back seat to the security issues at stake.
Watch: The Conversation Play Video33:01 Brian Armstrong on Dimon, Trump, and crypto’s future “The balance of harms and public interest are so lopsided in favor of this project,” Roth said. “It’s an architectural preference on one hand and the safety and security of the president of the United States on the other hand.”
Roth also asserted that it would be overreach for the courts to take any steps to halt the ballroom project at its outset or now, even if it was clearly illegal under federal law. Rather, he said, if a court found the project illegal, the only remedy would lie with Congress.
“Congress can figure out how to deal with that, given the fact that we have these national security imperatives,” Roth said. “It’s well along. They’ve installed like 3 million pounds of steel rebar. … Congress would be the appropriate entity to decide: How do we balance these considerations at this juncture?”
The National Trust’s lawsuit argues that the White House grounds, a designated national park, cannot be updated without congressional approval. The park, like Yellowstone, they contend, can’t simply be repurposed at the whims of the administration.
“They just don’t want to go to Congress,” the trust’s attorney, Tad Heuer said, stressing that, under the Constitution, “Congress controls federal property.”
While other, more modest changes at the White House, such as the installation of tennis courts and a pool, may well have been unauthorized, they were never challenged in court, Heuer said. But the ballroom, which required the demolition of the White House’s entire East Wing, is of a different scale.
Trump has repeatedly ridiculed the lawsuit over the project, asserting in a social media post that it was “brought by a woman walking her dog, who has absolutely No Standing to bring such a suit.” In fact, the National Trust has claimed standing through Alison Hoagland, a historian and retired professor who has volunteered on various preservation boards and regularly visits the area.
Hoagland’s court declaration says nothing about a
Look into the trades: electrician, plumber, hvac...I retired from Walmart last year making $125k/year as a refrigeration tech. The trades won't be replaced by Ai any time soon. When your ac doesn't work or your drain's clogged or you need some power run, ai can't do it. Although Walmart's got some pretty slick ai to flag stuff that's running out of spec.
No it's not like that. It's much simpler.
You pay DJT whatever particular bribe he's asking for your particular crime and you walk free. It usually starts in the millions of dollars.
Distributing Political and Critical Material: The attendees were handing out copies of an editorial article previously published in the American Diabetes Association's own journal. The text criticized the current government administration for drastically cutting scientific and research funding.Protesting Near Scheduled Speakers: The leafleting took place right before the Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) was scheduled to speak at the conference.Breaching the Attendee Guidelines: The ADA strictly prohibits unapproved leafleting, demonstrations, or political protesting under its Attendee Code of Conduct. The policy states that all participants must act in a professional and respectful manner, keeping the conference "centered on advancing diabetes science".
