We're so much in trouble. Thank God I won't be around for the worst of this. I fear that this is the end of our country. I have no proof just a guy feeling that I have. We had a good run. Sad to see it like this.

What is your solution?

We could tax them to death but I acknowledge that would be impossible to do it in a capitalist country. So it would be ridiculous to even try to do that. Just sayin

I'm curious. Did Trump secretly send weapons to Russia for Putin s use??

You do go way out of your way to prove you are an idiot.

It's not hard for him to prove that. Just sayin

It sure feels like it. Both parties are racist to an extent. It's painfully obvious to me that they can't stand anyone else.

Did anybody ever notice? The folks who see drag queens and immediately think about sex with children ... "
No. What people actually see is parents forcing kids to watch hypersexualized performances tied to a subculture that has long standing associations with adult entertainment and even prostitution.
They're not thinking about sex. They're thinking what kind of parent does this to a child?
If you don't know why people feel that way, maybe you're the one who needs to get better informed.

Drag queens have been around for centuries. There was a time that women couldn't act so the men had to do both genders in plays. Please do educate yourself better on the subject matter at hand.

WOWSERS That's reflective. That's a horrible sign of the times.

WASHINGTON, Jan 27 (Reuters) - President Joe Biden on Thursday said he plans by the end of February to nominate a Black woman to replace retiring U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, a historic first that he called "long overdue."

That's why she gets called a DEI hire. Thank Biden for that.

No different than Amy Barrett being a DEI hire. If you want to go that route.

During her confirmation hearings she was asked if she can define what a woman is and her response was, "I'm not a biologist"

You're thinking about Justice Jackson. Not Sotomayor.

She's a DEI hire.

is a complex issue regarding whether aid intended for the Afghan people ultimately benefits the Taliban government. While humanitarian aid is provided to address the severe humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan, there are concerns and reports suggesting that some aid may be diverted or used in ways that benefit the Taliban.
Here's a breakdown of the situation:
US and International Aid: The United States and other international donors continue to provide humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan to address the dire needs of the population, which is facing severe food insecurity and a humanitarian crisis. This aid is primarily delivered through UN agencies and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs).
Concerns of Aid Diversion: There are concerns and reports that the Taliban may be benefiting from this aid in various ways, including through:
Infiltration of aid deliveries: Some sources suggest the Taliban has infiltrated UN aid deliveries and views foreign aid as a potential revenue stream.
Demanding payoffs from NGOs: Reports indicate that the Taliban may be demanding payoffs from NGOs operating in the country.
Creating fraudulent NGOs: There are claims that the Taliban may create fake NGOs to receive aid money.
Embedding officials within UN agencies: Some reports suggest the Taliban may be embedding their officials within UN agencies.
Benefiting from cash shipments: Some reports mention that the U.N. transports cash into Afghanistan, and some of this cash can end up at the Taliban-controlled central bank.
Taliban's Perspective: The Taliban government denies interfering with aid deliveries and claims they are working to ensure transparency in aid distribution. However, they have imposed restrictions on the work of NGOs, particularly limiting women's participation, which has complicated aid delivery.
Efforts to Ensure Aid Reaches the Needy: Aid organizations and donors strive to implement measures to ensure aid reaches the intended beneficiaries and not the Taliban. These measures include strict monitoring and reporting, working directly with local communities, and exploring alternative methods like digital cash transfers.
In conclusion, while the goal of humanitarian aid is to alleviate suffering among the Afghan population, the operational environment is complex, and there are valid concerns and reports suggesting that the Taliban may be benefiting from the aid in various ways. Continued vigilance and efforts are needed to ensure the aid is delivered effectively and reaches the most vulnerable people in Afghanistan.

She's right you know.

Really BillJohnson?? I'd refrain from talking if I were you. Bet you experimented with sex in your youth. Didn't you hypocrite.

You are about to give Wall Street $4 trillion god ---- dollars by gutting main street and maxing the national credit card and you wonder why Wall Street is happy?
Idiot.

MAGA Trumpers ain't too bright you know.

This is what I mean by the risks and dangers of progressiveness. It's not about being anti-gay. It's about the message being pushed, especially to kids, that sexual experimentation is just casual. That it's no big deal. "Try both, see what you like." And if you question it? You're labeled a bigot or supporting censorship or something worse.
But this isn't about fear. It's about boundaries. It's about pushing back on the idea that childhood is some kind of identity lab to be used for ideological and political purposes. And now the rights of parents are coming into play.
Progressiveness used to mean equal rights. Now it means no rules. And if you're not okay with that? You're the problem.
Well, some of us aren't buying that anymore.

Funny that heterosexual sexual exploration in youth is considered no big deal yet gay sexual exploration of the homosexual variety gets labeled very bad. It's not progressiveness that's the problem. It's right wing bigotry that is the problem.

No, they just didnt anticipate liberals like you abusing it and twisting its meaning to something it shouldnt be.

Scalia and Ginsburg disagreed with you on birthright citizenship. Please do educate yourself better before you opine again.

Just a reminder that this ruling also affects any democratic POTUS as well. He can sign executive orders to his hearts desire and federal judges can't issue nationwide injunctions to stop it either. Just sayin

You know what is ironic. These poor MAGA Trumpers give cart blanch to the billionaires only because Trump tapped into their hatred for people different than themselves. Sad state of affairs these days.

Biden wasn't on the ballot. Do try again BillJohnson

That distinction matters. The 14th Amendment wasn't written to give automatic citizenship to the children of people who crossed the border illegally and have no lawful status.
It was about correcting a historic injustice and not about handing out citizenship to anyone who happens to be born on US soil.
Somewhere along the line, that line got blurred and we've been misapplying it ever since.

Birthright citizenship was for slaves kids, not illegals.
