Now, when more and more kids get sick, Republicans won't say it's because the kids aren't vaccinated.

Republicans will say it is because of disease carrying immigrants that must be rounded up for our own safety.

"DeLauro pointed to a March hearing where Secretary of State Marco Rubio told the Appropriations Committee that all frozen aid would be delivered and not go to waste."

Promises Made, Promises Broken.

I'll listen to the "experts" on consciousness when they acknowledge pets and livestock have it.

As it stands, this sounds too much like the religious voodoo that only humans have souls. Not really any different from only humans have consciousness. And similarly undefinable terms, both soul and consciousness. I mean really, aren't they the same thing from a religious point of view? Same bigoted energy.

"the Supreme Court has consistently ruled that the Due Process Clause applies to all people in the United States."

JeffJ says immigrants are not subject to the Constitution.

If the Constitution does not apply to immigrants in the United States, then it's not illegal for immigrants to be here.

If the Constitution does not apply to migrants, then migrants are not subject to Federal law. Since all Federal law finds its authority in the Constitution.

I hope Republicans actually argue JeffJ's point in court, and win, and then it becomes illegal for ICE to detain immigrants.

And by the Fourteenth Amendment, immigrants would not be bound by State laws either.

"That's how crazy that show's budget is."

I doubt Colbert sets the budget...

And it's not history.
Trump is president right now.
The cover-up continues.

And Republicans don't care
Joe Six-Pack doesn't care either.

Can AI ever be conscious?

I think one of the more interesting developments is AI can hallucinate.

Why isn't that conscious? People hallucinate. Aren't people conscious?

Another thing that seems to be happening.

People are saying, is AI conscious.
But I think what people really are trying to ask, is AI capable of rational thought.
But people aren't rational.

Party for 'young women' Where Epstein was the Only Guest

Now that's a party!

#139 No Colbert criticized CBS for settling the lawsuit.

Got it.
That... makes CBS look even weaker.

Alternately, Republicans would have us believe people being sent to camps are not even people.

Immigrants do not get rights, because immigrants are not people, under the laws of the United States. That's the America Republicans want.

That's not what the Fifth Amendment says, JeffJ.

Can't wait until Trump cuts funding for reporting outbreaks on cruise ships.

I'd love to believe this was a case of Colbert FAFO.

What was Colbert's "FA" part?
Was it... criticizing Trump?

The law cited is intended for stories like this to exist.

Or perhaps you would like to deny that too.

Republicans love Micromanagers.

Get your head out of the sand.
too funny

"why don't you believe Trump?"
LOL

And why whistle past the graveyard just once when you can do it in back to back posts?

"They are not being charged with a crime. They are being deported."

Is "being deported" a legal proceeding? Yes.

Then the Fifth Amendment guarantees that people have a right to Due Process.

If what you are saying is true, then a citizen could also be deported since they are not being charged with a crime either. Naturally, you're okay with that. And naturally, you won't acknowledge it.

"The Republican National Convention hit rock bottom on its third day in Milwaukee, Wis., on July 17, with a sea of signs calling for "Mass Deportation Now." "

That's what we are getting, Eberly.

What do you think ICE got $150B to do that isn't send people to camps?

-Of course I believe it.
No, you don't.

He's doing it right now.
Trump says he's doing it, why don't you believe Trump?

-You're saying they only did the camps because it makes Liberals sad.
No, I said Joe 6-pack loves your reaction.
#96 | Posted by eberly

Maybe a politically aware Republican Joe 6-pack, which seems kinda like an oxymoron.

I don't think general support for camps is really that high.
