The truth about the epidemics is slowly sinking in to his pea brain. He sees defeat in denial. I expect more mask wearing in public going forward.

Trump is a primitive person, but his instincts have finally seen that denial of the virus is a LOSER.

He wants to win.

Was actual murder of slaves legal? I question that assertion. Can you back it up. References please.

More death,for nothing. There will be no herd immunity. The virus will keep mutating until it's less virulent or the hosts run out.

Being food and incubators for a tiny enemy is what humanity was created for. Get used to it

We are the ecosphere for the virus. It will win. agggggggggghhh,
the horror,the horror.

His family wanted to cash out the estate. They were unwilling to lose money by freeing valuable property. This stain is on them; not Jefferson himself.

Most people are not saints. They followed the LAWS of their time.

They broke NO laws of the time by liquidating his estate.

If you have a problem with that get a time machine and change the laws in force in 1826.

Good luck with that.

Open war between bitterly entrenched factions.

The denial of the very humanity of people unlike ourselves.

America is ------. I want a space shuttle out of here. Now.

Americans,are STOOOPID. The deep south is beyond stupid. They mistake public health measures for assaults on their freedumbs. Trump panders to this stupidity like an evil puppeteer.

America is ------. The virus will kill and maim far more people here than anywhere else because of this.

Public health should be apolitical.

Trump is an evil and foolish person.

The risk of Nazis coming to power is compatible with freedom. The risk of communists banning religion is compatible with freedom.

Freedom is people making choices without someone forcing outcomes or restricting acceptable discourse to protect the sensibilities of some "protected" group or other like we were in elementary school or something.

The answer to offensive speech is more speech. Not silencing the offensive speaker.

This has been part of American citizenship since the founding of the republic.

People are adults. Not impressionable children.

Thanks for reading and hopefully, understanding.

Who made you the arbiter of what is "normal"?
Arrogant much? Jefferson had issues,no question.

Nuance is --------, an excuse for situational ethics. Try having some nuance about Trump.

Jefferson was a hypocrite, there is no nuance about that. He also was not breaking ANY laws of the time when he purchased and impregnated his chattels.

Try being consistent in your reasoning. You might pass for intelligent,maybe,but I doubt it.

Are the Nations independent of the US, or not?

Can they create their own government. If they can,it is dual citizenship, if they cannot,it is sham sovereignty, a word game only.

If they can create their own governments it would mean they could create their own currencies. They could tax their own citizens. The could create their own armed forces.
Anything less is not really being another nation at all. It's just BS.

So their "sovereignty", is a sham. Why rule the way they did if the natives are Americans and not nation's in any real sense? Seems contradictory and kind of ---------- to me.

Having it both ways. Either they are Americans or they are not. This special status just gives the usurpers an out.

Real nationhood would be preferable.

Let's cut out some human hearts for the virus God. Maybe the virus will disappear and the economy will blossom and grow if we feed human hearts to Trump.

Indigenous cultures tried it. Why not us?

Freedom to be an ------- is sacred. American is based on that. The whole premise of freedom of expression is the freedom to offend,without that there is no true freedom. Only pablum,and Orthodoxy. The Nazis didn't like " degenerate" art. The Soviets hated religion.

All true freedom offends SOMEBODY.

Jefferson was not an evil man. He lived in the society he was part of. He did want to end slavery. He just liked money that slavery made possible.

Like it or not, Slavery was a legal labor option in early America. For backbreaking work in excessive heat and humidity slavery was the only way to economically, "git her done".

Jefferson is complex and paradoxical. He owned human beings,he also wrote the Declaration of Independence.

He had children by one of his slaves, he did not believe in a Christian God.

He purchased half of our national territory.

His greatness is genuine. He just wasn't a MODERN man. Get over it. History should revere him even if he wasn't perfect.

This "woke" stuff is getting too stupid to believe lately.

If they're truly sovereign nation's they are not American citizens. OK would lose the population of those areas. The Nations could apply to be another state theoretically, or possibly even several states.

Dumbasses gonna dumbass. America is ------, I want the first space shuttle out of this toilet. I'm not proud to be American. I hate what we are and have always been. I wish I had been born elsewhere. I'm too old and feeble to emigrate at this point. I wish I was younger and less feeble.

This is gonna really piss off some people in OK.
They don't want to admit wrong,much less give valuable land back and lose sovereignty over that whole area. No more taxes for OK from the whole eastern half of the"state". They may also lose electoral votes as well. OUCH!

Brain damage. He died of a stroke, probably not his first. Made him simple.

Any Bets on how long before she commits "suicide"?

They won't let her talk,that's for damn sure. One way or another she will be silenced.

Massa's got to rule. Divine right of kings. Ancien Regime, Top Dog. India has had castes for millennia.

The caste stuff is designed to keep the poor at each other's throats and not coming after Massa.

It works every time.

More like Captain Tripps all the time. Scary, Stephen King couldn't even cook this one up.

Asymptomatic carriers and airborne dispersal,
this ---- is the stuff of nightmares.

I thought Trump wanted to bring the jobs and production back to North America. American supply chains would free us from dependence on foreign production.

Trump is totally incompetent at just about everything. He's mostly like a dick TV personality wannabe.

His own show would be a better fit than trying to run THE show.

The Apprentice was his high point as a Man.

As president he's less than a joke,he's an embarrassment. Ouch!!

Third world toilet. This is totally self inflicted.

More winning,from the biggest winners of all.

The Republican party.

Why is it a monument to ethnic cleansing? Who says so? Perhaps it is a monument to western expansion. Maybe not even that. It might just be a sculpture of famous presidents.

It should remain. America is proud of our great men. They were not perfect, who is? You?

I didn't know they had any monuments to their own ethnic cleansing. But if they did it would be more within their interests to remove them than Buddhist statues they had no hand in.

The "English Sweat", just disappeared. In the 16th century there was a horrible disease that killed thousands in Britain and mainland Europe. The death rate was very high and the course of illness extremely rapid.

The sweat vanished completely after being the cause of several epidemics.
There have been no new cases since 1551 or so.
