I just wish our currebt President was as reansparent as Argentina's...but I won't hold my breath.

"Argentina's President Milei faces impeachment calls after promoting cryptocurrency"

"Argentine President Javier Milei is facing calls for impeachment after promoting a little-known cryptocurrency, whose price soared then collapsed after his endorsement, leading to losses for thousands of investors.

The news has caused a major scandal in Argentina, with the opposition accusing Milei of promoting a scam, an allegation that the presidency has denied.

It started with a tweet posted by the president to his X account, which has more than 3.8 million followers. "This private project will be dedicated to encouraging the growth of the Argentine economy," he wrote, with a link to the $LIBRA cryptocurrency project.
The presidency on Saturday announced an investigation into the matter, saying: "President Javier Milei has decided to immediately involve the Anti-Corruption Office to determine whether there was improper conduct on the part of any member of the national government, including the president himself.""

"Leftist blogs promulgate disinformation and incite insurrection against lawful authority"

Only one insurrection since the Civil War and it sure as hell wasn't leftists. Maybe try reading something? Your ignorance is showing.

"Democrats should avoid the 1% issues the stupid ------- MAGATS are fixated on and focus on what's important for the 80%."

Democrats have never said trans women should compete against biological women in sports, We have though supported trans women as they tru to live their lives without all the unnecessary hatred they recieve from right wing politicians who see their peculiar identity as an opportunity to focus hate on people just trying to live their lives. In truth, the haters are the diseased creatures not the trans people. Anyone that is always looking for someone to hate is really the sickest part of humanity not those who just happen to not perfectly fit into the roles society arbitrarily decides they should embrace. Conformity is a trait supported by the smallest minds among us because it is the simplest way to marginalize others which provides the least exceptional path towards status; as in "at least I'm not trans". If that is the only source for your status then you're really struggling to feel ok with yourself.

Make no mistake, as much as Fox News will try to spin it otherwise, Donald Trump is going to get the blame. Oh, he'll tru to blame Biden again but it ain't gpnna fool anyone this time. Trump has burned through his honeymoon and now he owns the disaster he has created.

"and even Democrats don't support trans women in women's sports."

Thank you. I kmow mostly Democrats but I don't know a single one that believes transexual women should be allowed to compete as women in athletic sports. This argument is entirely created by anti-trans Nazis. The rea truth is in many cases people interact with trans people but don't even know it. Repiblicans like Ron Desantis have generated this as a way to give the most awful bigots a new focus for their hatred of minorities in general. Basically if you aren't straight and white you are an enemy.

Listen to these women explain why! IMHO, they all make perfect sense! Insecure and/or abusive husbands should probably avoid this thread!

I didn't post that ---------- but I know what my response to you would be if I did; GoF**K yourself ASSh**e! Are all Trumpies assh**es? Or just the one's who post here? My bet is the former not the latter.

"Is there any point to this behavior beyond Trump/MAGA nastiness?"

Is there really any point to anything Trump does except that? With Trump everything is personal, everything is about his ego.

""What's compelling about it is if the United States takes a position in the emerging crypto economy " if it buys up 10, 20% of the bitcoin network, we're going to pay off the national debt, so why wouldn't that be in the interest of the United States?"

Probably because it is absolute horse S**T!

Fact is Trump and Musk will increase yhe federal debt by 5 trillion dollars.

But you Trumpers and MAGAdiots believe whatever lies they feed your dumb asses! I don't care, but when it collapses just remember I told you so!

BEW

F**k him! Trump told us all:

""Rescue" those astronauts yet?"

It has been determined that it would be more profitable to just keep paying Musk billions of $$$$ to keep "resupplying" them until they both die from old age. Yes, it sucks for them but that's "privatization." If there is no profit in it then don't do it.

Hmmm? Privatize the USPS? So delivering the mail would now be based on profit? So, the corporation that owns it would dutifully (duty to stock holders not cirizens) make decisions to increase profits like: 1. Raising the price of postage dramatically. 2. Eliminating millions of addresses that don't handle enough volume to generated enough money in postage to pay for all the salaries rents, vehicles, etc. required to deliver the mail.
Proof? Ask Jeff Bezos why Amazon relies on the USPS to deliver millions of "free delivery" packages every day? Amazon's "free deliveries" are only possible because USPS is doing most of those deliveries, and quite well BTW. If the Prime delivery drivers had to find every address as the USPS does, every day, "free delivery" would disappear from our consciousness.
Americans need to wake up! Ego Musk is not trying to save tax dollars, he's trying to eliminate government services or privatize them. If there is no profit then they will eliminste it. Do you have any idea how many old people are living in assisted living homes paid for by Medicaid? So, when that egomaniac slashes Medicaid he'll be dumping elderly people with nowhere else to go into the street. And don't blame their kids who are struggling to pay their rent on a one bedroom apartment. Blame "the richest nan in the world" who thinks he has to pay too much in taxes or, more accurately, Vladimir Putin, who wants to destroy our living standard because, just like successful Ukraine, it creates jealousy and then unrest, in Russia.
Question: What's worse than having a traitor in the White House?
Answer: Having two taitors in the White House!

"Just pointing out that it kinda sucks for the Canadian people."

Unlike MAGAs Canadians are capable of understanding who provoked this response.

So Trump gets his tax cut for the rich without Congress!

"Musk suggests that most of Gov should be privatized... to profit companies like his own."

It's beginning to look alot like Russia all around the town.

"The one thing keeping from being a pyramid scheme is that all future monies are taken at gunpoint, so the future funding never dries up, although if one or two changes are not made within a couple of decades recipients will only receive about 75% of what is promised."

Are all your thoughts about everything just stupid reght wing talking points? Don't you get tired of being told what to think?

"Coming from someone who has received BILLIONS from the government. Surely it's only a coincidence that Musk wants to eliminate social programs to help make him wealthier."

The never ending need for more wealth is an addiction like any other. I've heard he has 11 kids; if he's so focused on earning more money how much time and energy does that leave for them?

Did the MAGAS get permits before they violently invaded the Capital? I don't remember a single complaint from MAGs about the lack of permits. Where do you apply for a permit to hang the Vice President?

I notice not evenMAGAs are not defending this appointment but I guess it won't matter considering they are abolishing the Dept. of Education so her job won't even exist very soon.

I think he considered the Maidan protests were illegal in Ukraine,

"Does anyone think he is excluding Palestinian protests?"

I think he just thinks any "protest" except violent insurrections in the Capital by MAGAs are illegal; he believes that any protest against the dictator is illegal just like in Russia.

""The city is wrong," according to Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who wrote the dissenting opinion, which was joined by the three Democratic justices, Sotomayor, Kagan and Jackson. "The relevant provision of the Clean Water Act directs EPA to impose any more stringent limitation that is necessary to meet ... or required to implement any applicable water quality standard."

I questiion the scientific basis that the right wing ideologues based their decision on and that last sentence of the dissenting opinion or the actual meaning of the law which makes it clear that the Act definitely that the EPA is directed by the Act "to impose any more stringent limitation that is necessary to meet ... or required to implement any applicable water quality standard."

As these crazy right wing Justices seem prone to, they ignore any parts of laws that they want without a real legal basis. But it's not the first time that their own own political ideology won out over laws passed by Congress which have been in place for decades,

"These were campus insurrectionists. Not peaceful or legal."

OMG! cAMPUS INSURRECTION IS SO MUCH WORSE THAN u.s. Capital insurrection.

Allowing the Palestinians to stay in their own country sounds much better than Trump's plan to move them to refuge camps elsewhere. Plus isn't Dubai already the Riviera of the Middle East?

The Trump administrationis going to repeat history just a little shot of the 100th anniversary of the Great Republican Depression of 1929.
