Sy,
Any vote for a Democrat is supporting the murder of unborn children.
Let's not act self-righteous.

I get it. You only want to kill them AFTER they are born, right?

Ah. So no abortions ever is the Biblical rule? Let them mothers die, right Bill?

Since I've read the Bible, I know it mentions abortion. Never describes it as a sin. Instead forced abortion was just a punishment.

And because I know history and Christianity, I know abortion was not considered a sin at the time the Bible was put together. Augustine, Aquinas and even Pope Innocent III thought it was acceptable.

It wasn't until the 70's, that you Bible Thumpers decided murdering the mother to divide Christians and win elections was a solid strategy.

It's a shame you are such a fake Christian, Bill. You might have actual read the Bible and know something of Christian history.

Now should I go through and list the sins you DO commit that ARE in the Bible?

Yes, Republican women do get abortions. Data from a 2024 KFF survey shows that 12% of Republican women report having had an abortion, a rate similar to Democratic (14%) and independent (15%) women, indicating that personal decisions on abortion transcend party lines.
KFF
KFF
+1
Prevalence: About one in 10 women who identify as "pro-life" report having had an abortion.
Ideological Variance: While many Republicans identify as "pro-life," polling shows that approximately half of Republican women believe abortion should be legal in all or most cases.
Reasons: Reasons for abortions are diverse, often involving medical emergencies, financial issues, or personal circumstances, regardless of political ideology.

Although the Republican Party platform generally advocates for restrictions on abortion, personal, medical, and situational factors lead women from all political backgrounds to seek this care.

Stephen Colbert Defies CBS, Says Network Banned Him From Interviewing James Talarico

This was Colbert's initial statement.

" You know who is not one of my guests tonight? That's Texas State Representative James Talarico. He was supposed to be here, but we were told in no uncertain terms by our network's lawyers, who called us directly, that we could not have him on the broadcast. Then I was told, in some uncertain terms, that not only could I not have him on, I could not mention not having him on."

Then after CBS put out their statement he followed with this:

" They know damn well that every word of my script last night was approved by CBS lawyers, who, for the record, approve every script that goes on the air ... CBS told me unilaterally that I had to abide by the equal time rules, something I have never been asked to do for an interview in the 21 years of this job ... I was even pulled backstage during taping for notes' from lawyers on language to use " unprecedented"

Gee, his story changed. Yet JPW buys it hook, line and sinker. And then mocks anyone who approaches Colbert with even a hint of skepticism.

Stephen Colbert Defies CBS, Says Network Banned Him From Interviewing James Talarico

@#154

OK, grateful to my TiVo, on which I recorded the show, starting at 11:35PM on Feb 16 and 17. After I watched the shows, I deleted them, but TiVo keeps a ~trash can~ of all the shows I've recorded, watched and deleted going back over the past month or so ...

OK, I just "undeleted" the 2/16 and the 2/17 shows.

I offer the following unofficial transcript of what I hear in the Feb 16 show ...

... But we were told in no uncertain terms by our network's lawyers, who called us directly, that we could not have him on the broadcast. The, then I was told in some uncertain terms that not only could I have not him on, but I could not mention me not having him on. And, because, my network clearly does not want us to talk about this, let's talk about this ...

I offer the following unofficial transcript of what I hear in the Feb 17 show ...

... Carr issued a letter saying he was thinking of getting rid of that talk-show exception [from the equal-time rule]. He had not gotten rid of it yet.

But, CBS generously did it for him. And told me, unilaterally that I had to abide by the equal time rules.

Something that I have never been asked to do in the interviews for the 21 years of this job

Now, that decision, I want to be clear, is their right.

Just like I have to talk about their decision on air.

...

Anyway, I said my peace last night, I said my peace, I mmade some jokes, that's what they pay me for. I was ready to let the whole thing go.

Until a few hours ago, when my group chat blew up ...

Without ever talking to me, the corporation put out this press release [shown on the air]

Now, this is a surprisingly small piece of paper considering how many butts it is trying to cover ...

Les Wexner Deposition on Epstein Files

... Americans believe that wealthy and powerful people are rarely held accountable, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found after the release of millions of records on the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's connections in elite U.S. business and political circles.

Some 69% of respondents in the four-day poll, which concluded on Monday, said their views were captured "very well" or "extremely well" by a statement that the Epstein files "show that powerful people in the U.S. are rarely held accountable for their actions."

Another 17% said the statement described their views "somewhat well," while 11% said it didn't reflect their thinking.

Among both Republicans and Democrats, more than 80% said the statement described their thinking at least somewhat well. ...

Was it the "gun" or the Transgender?

So, the 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution has done nothing positive for the United States of America.

It's not meant to, the purpose was to allow/enable the people to overthrow the government, should they find the government tyrannical.

Do you think there's any correlation at all between the fact that the United States is the only country in existence with as permissive a gun control policy as the Second Amendment, and the prevalence of gun violence in the United States?

Is gun violence higher or lower than other times in America's past? I would recon lower, but idk.
In the past, was gun control stricter or more permissive? Seems like its more restrictive, I would add more restriction.

Do you think there is any correlation at all between the fact that the United States is the oldest active codified constitution in the world, and a permissive gun control policy, such as the Second Amendment?

I would argue there is, the government should fear its citizens at some level. Without it tryanny isn't far behind. If the current Lumper stance is Trump is in fact, a fascist, isn't it nice that citizens have weapons? Seems like it would be a deterrent, hence the longevity of the Constitution.

Uh huh. Sure. And we would believe your side of the story exactly why again?

Nothing coming from this administration (or any of its rabid supporters and you are one) can be believed or trusted without verification from at least 2 reliable sources.

You have yet to provide that. So the default trust in judgement goes to Colbert.

But do carry on with the current maga lie of the day!

Colbert apparently lied. CBS legal team did not prohibit him from airing the interview on his show. They advised it might violate "equal time", which is a FCC rule that long predates Trump, and gave options on how to manage the rule should it be invoked. I guess one could argue that CBS execs are the ones who are lying but if Colbert has come out with that allegation, I have yet to see it.

The EPA was invited to a meeting with the local governors over this very issue but declined to even respond. Probably because they would have to answer some really tough questions.

Trumpstein Files Could Expose Crimes Against Humanity

The experts said crimes outlined in documents released by the US justice department were committed against a backdrop of supremacist beliefs, racism, corruption and extreme misogyny. The crimes, they said, showed a commodification and dehumanisation of women and girls.

That's just the official GOP platform for the last 70 years.

Republican Had Affair with Aide who Set Herself on Fire, report says

-I think that at this point, it's a safe assumption that anyone running for office as a Republican is a giant POS until proven otherwise.

Nobody is going to bother to prove to you or anyone else they aren't a POS.

There are thousands of republicans in State houses, governor mansions, and in DC.

They'll just to live with your disappointment in them for being a republican.

Perhaps this doesn't make sense to you but the vast majority of folks who choose to serve in their state legislature or even in DC have roots, live, work, have families, friends, business interests, etc...inside the region/district they represent. It's where they want to be and if they are going to choose to serve, it has to be the district where they are standing in right now.

If you understand that, then you'll understand that those who choose to serve have to live with the political leaning of that area. IOW, if you want to get elected, you better know which party you'll be in. You seem to think those folks get to choose which party they can be in and expect to win. Or, if they really want to serve, they should just move to an area that better fits their political ideology. No ------- way.

It's monetized human trafficking being done right out in the open for the benefit of investors looking for a wide open conduit to the US treasury.

Netanyahu Plays Trump and American Jews for Fools -- Again

Yup, that was a shot heard 'round the world.

I remember the Oslo peace plans and how Israel and Palestine could have shared the land for both their benefits.

Israel has large elevated highways and the idea was to construct such a fenced in 20-mile superhighway linking the West Bank and Gaza.

The Palestinian security forces were to patrol the elevated roadway to ensure no vandalism, but a stainless steel mesh fence was supposed to cocoon it anyway.

Israelis wouldn't see the Palestinians up there and vice versa.

Israel would have continued getting the cheap labor from the Gaza Strip and Palestinian farmers in the West Bank could have hired Gazans as well.

And Israel could have had better relations with its Arab and Iranian neighbors. The theocratic regime in Iran wouldn't have had to counterattack Israel every time the IDF decimated the Palestinians.

The cost of that bridge in 1994 or 1995 would have been far cheaper than the billions and billions of dollars hardworking American taxpayers have been forking over to Israel since 1948.

More importantly, how many lives from both sides could have been saved?

Hi Doc Sarvis:

Thanks for posting.

Israel is a country I no longer recognize and I'm never going back.

Israel recorded its first net migration loss last year because of the bellicose Likud regime.

Israelis have been filling out paperwork at German consulates and embassies in order to emigrate there by proving their ancestors were once citizens.

Israel has been cited as the greatest cause of instability in the Middle East by the analysts at Responsible Statecraft

The sooner the Democratic Party of JFK, FDR, and Zohran Mamdani rids itself of AIPAC and that dibbuk Bibi Netanyahu, the sooner we can oust the nefarious Trumpf junta and Republicans from power on Tuesday 3 Nov 2026.

Pre-Trump, the most frequent driver of those folks staying home was the fact that both parties often turned them off and they didn't find either side compelling enough to earn their vote.

I was in Honduras a couple weeks back. I struck up a conversation with a server at a beach bar. I learned that he had been seized by ICE and deported this past fall after Trump revoked TPS. When he returned home, knowing he had been in America and spoke English fairly well, he was quickly approached by cartel members who threatened him and his family if he refused to work for them.
He opted to flee his home and move to the city I was visiting. Fortunately no harm has yet come to the family members he left behind.
That experience has had me wondering how many of the people the Trump administration is murdering are working for the cartels of their own volition as opposed to being forced into the role through intimidation.

POSTED BY JPW A

This was a lie.

BrianStelter:
This just in from CBS: "THE LATE SHOW was not prohibited by CBS from broadcasting the interview with Rep. James Talarico. The show was provided legal guidance that the broadcast could trigger the FCC equal-time rule for two other candidates, including Rep. Jasmine Crockett, and presented options for how the equal time for other candidates could be fulfilled. THE LATE SHOW decided to present the interview through its YouTube channel with on-air promotion on the broadcast rather than potentially providing the equal-time options."

Why? Pretty cut and dry explanation.

Reminder that Paramount Skydance needs approval from Trump's minions to buy Warner Bros.

Yesterday, its subsidiary CBS banned Stephen Colbert from airing an interview with TX Democrat James Talarico.

Larry Ellison is sucking up to Trump by turning his media empire into MAGA propaganda.

It would have been better if Congress demanded the unredacted files and did their own redactions.

Then,we would be confident we ate seeing everything.

If I was to kill someone, I would be the one who did it, not the instrument I used.

This is like saying we should ban ---------- because JPW will suck any c*c$ that comes through the hole. It's not the hole's fault, it's JPW for being there.

"Guns" need people to kill.

If guns aren't the problem and people are the problem, why do we keep selling guns to the problem?

Why is every attempt to pass regulations for putting in sensible changes to gun laws to keep the problems from buying guns shouted down?

Why was an EO that kept people with diagnosed mental illnesses from buying guns rescinded?

The NRA doesn't care who gets murdered just that gun sales can continue without any hinderance whatsoever.

Unprecedented: FBI Not Sharing Evidence in Pretti Shooting

The Feds murder a man in the streets. They then baselessly lie about the man they killed, calling him a "a domestic terrorist who tried to assassinate law enforcement" when video shows that was clearly not the case. Instead of taking responsible for the actions of the people they employ, they tried to blame the murder on politics claiming "This tragedy occurred as a result of a deliberate and hostile resistance by Democrat leaders for weeks." They are now hiding the evidence from the people of the state where the murder occurred.

Trump supporters, please explain to me why any info put out from administration should ever be trusted?

The truth has always been that people and guns form interactive systems that kill people.

By this logic, you would need to ban EVERYTHING that a person could use to kill other people.

People + whatever is always going to be an effective "system" to kill other people.

Still in all this, the only main movement part of this is the person, none of the inanimate objects.

Trump Donor Is Moving His Ohio Plant to China

To go publicly on CNBC to support the Trump administration's positive views on tariffs

The tariffs were implemented to shift the tax burden from the 1% to the middle class.

The amount of $$$ this ------- is saving from the big bulls**t bill dwarfs anything the tariffs will steal out of the middle classes wallets.

The cost of the tariffs will be passed onto the consumer so it is a no brainer to keep moving the plant overseas. Pedo47 will be gone soon and so will his tariffs, but the big bulls**t tax cuts are now permanent because senate rules no longer matter when the Guardians of Pedophiles are writing the rules.

Trump vs Bad Bunny: A Feud with Possible Midterm Consequences

Trump cuts off his nose to spite his face ~ repeatedly. There's something mentally wrong with him that he can't resist these impulses to alienate the support he needs the most, not just in the U.S. but internationally as well.

Obviously, power has gone to his head, but I think it's going to take a fleet of psychiatrists to figure out the reasons for his petty hatreds and revenge, if anybody even tried.

My opinion is Trump is going to take his mental illness with him to his grave.

Psst, psst

Trump Donor Is Moving His Ohio Plant to China

#2 - jajaja!

from the excellent article

"Robert Hines, president of UAW Local 2359 and a worker at the Conn-Selmer plant in Ohio, said Paulson's latest decision smacks of hypocrisy.

"To go publicly on CNBC to support the Trump administration's positive views on tariffs and all that stuff, and then you turn around and [say you] want to go send the work right over to China," Hines told The Guardian. "It's a slap in our face."

Overall, U.S. manufacturing jobs have declined since last spring, when he first implemented his aggressive and wide-ranging tariffs " which he promised would lead to a renaissance of blue-collar jobs, according to Reuters.

The industry shed 8,000 jobs in December, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported. And since April employment in the sector has fallen by more than 70,000 to about 12.69 million as of December, marking the worst reading since March 2022."
