Re 5

That was for my Canadian friends.

Here is the translation for my American friends:

"Certainly, whoever can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities" or "injustices".

These guys are idiots.

You're gonna take it easy on this woman compared to farmers?

Oh the poor poor farmers!

Direct federal payments to American farmers are projected to reach a record $55.4 billion in total for the 2026 crop year.

If we are really in 51 national emergencies we should at least all be aware of this and probably act like it and not even pretend things are normal. Because they are not. Apparently.

We still have an emergency declaration on the books from 1979.

A lot of the presidential abuse of power is coming from outdated and fake emergency declarations.

As of October 2026, 51 national emergencies are currently active under the National Emergencies Act, and 90 total national emergencies have been declared since the act was passed in 1976.

The oldest active national emergency is about 47 years old, having been declared on November 14, 1979, by President Jimmy Carter in response to the Iran hostage crisis (freezing Iranian government assets under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act). It has been renewed annually by every subsequent president.

Unfortunately any law passed by Congress will be subject to a veto. So figure the odds of any president signing off on it.

Time to end all of the fake emergencies that Trumpy has declared.

This should be one of the first things that the new Congress does.

Wasn't the idea behind the New Green Deal for America become more reliant of renewable energy and less reliant on fossil fuels for this very reason? To reduce any effects of fluctuations in oil prices based on chaos and conflicts somewhere thousands of miles away?

I guess Leftyturd missed all that while screaming about some -ism that he is terrified of.

Re 19

Also ... if we have more oil than before this war of choice when can we expect fuel prices to go down?

As I recall fuel prices immediately went up when this artificial crisis began. So when will they go down?

So yeah. Don't piss on my leg and try to tell me it's just raining.

I'll believe it when I see it.. at the pump.

Re 19

And it is only costing Americans an extra $1-2 billion dollars a day in direct military spending and an untold number of billions in increase consumer costs.. and not to mention creating more chaos in the middle east and a more unstable world.

So. Does it make any sense? Is it sustainable? Not from where I sit.

Not a quote. More like a prayer.

A Navajo Prayer was recently shared with me. It made my day a little brighter and my steps a little lighter.

Now. I am sharing it with you.

Been a while since anyone ------ up the page formatting.

And. It will be. "Taken care of..". By serious adults who care about the law and who believe in democracy and who care more about the People than their own fame and glory.

And after Nov 3 and all the maga shenanigans are dealt with ... which could take weeks or months sadly..Accountability is coming.

Hope you haven't lost your Rock. You may need to crawl back under it soon.

As a boomer, my future is looking FAR better than theirs. But I'm much closer to the end of my time.

Gratz on surviving the Churn as long as you have. That in itself is quite an accomplishment.

And I'm betting it didn't happen by complaining
about the previous generation or a lot of magical thinking.

I'm betting that in the PAST you had to make some sacrifices and put in the work and blood sweat and tears and maybe some actual planning and saving for the FUTURE that is providing you with the lifestyle you are enjoying in the NOW.

Come on ya'll. Pick another protein!

Leftyturd is so bummed!

This must be good news for democracy.

Re 13

Let ME guess.. YOU think the freedom caucus and Trumpy and the cult of MAGA are edgy and cool.
