“Someone in NY with nothing to lose needs to take care of Merchan,” wrote one commentator on Patriots.Win. “Hopefully he gets met with illegals with a machete,” the post said in reference to illegal immigrants.

Imagine having so much to lose for your opinions, that you hope the people that you've oppressed carry out your sick fantasies.

On Gateway Pundit, one poster suggested shooting liberals after the verdict. “Time to start capping some leftys,” said the post. “This cannot be fixed by voting."

I feel like America is encouraging the wrong attitudes. When it arrests peaceful protestors on Gaza, but won't touch the guys threatening to shoot up "leftys."

True, but I imagine it'll be hard to campaign across the nation with house arrest.

So. Our democracy hinges on the fact that the lesser of two evils is being a clown, to protect a ICC criminal dictator, while innocent civilians die daily, and will for another 7 months, to American paid bombs.

I wonder if we can move to Canada based on political asylum from Trump. Because if not, we are so fucked.

If I have to hear one more thought Donald Trump has about this case.

I have blue balls for justice starting from 4 years ago. And nothing but Trump commentary (arguable the least horny thing on this planet) to keep me occupied.

And I am about to pay a porn star hush money to beat me in a Trump outfit if I don't start seeing some justice.

Press: Does the president see charred bodies as crossing a red line

US state department: No we don't want any civilian lives lost and I take offense to that question.

Be offended then, because watching my government play clown for this genocide is disgusting.

Israel: There is no way our attacks caused this, our bombs alone could not start a fire of this size

...

Do these guys know what 2,000 lb bombs do? Because if they do then we should take the bombs away. And if they don't, we should take the bombs away.

“If I wasn’t a Libertarian before, I sure as hell am a Libertarian now.”

If Libertarian-ism was 180 degrees and a mile in the opposite direction. Dictators notoriously go after the liberals and libertarians first.

I wouldn't use the government to jail people, I just wouldn't do that

No. You'd send in the national guard to shoot them for merely expressing their discontent.

Maybe you don't want to win. Keep getting your 3% every 4 years.

Win what? With Trump?

  • Loss of abortion access?
  • Loss of child tax credits?
  • Loss of freedom of expression?
  • Loss of library books?
  • Loss of civil liberties?
  • Loss of climate action?
  • Loss of accountability to rapist and fraudsters?

If Trump is the win for the libertarian party, then I would prefer to lose.

They are called different things. Some people call them cope cages. Others call them turtle tanks.

In all, the idea is that if you have one of these meshes, drones cannot drop ordinance inside of the tank.

Unfortunately, it is not recommended to do this, as a bigger target gives your position away.

Some of the equipment or escape vectors are blocked off.

But it also does nothing extra to protect the tank from the impact of Javelin missiles, or a tank round, a Bradley auto cannon. Or even from a drone that detonates over it.

Though most drones don't aim for the mesh, but the back of the tank, the tank tracks (Wheels), or the base of the turret which are the weak points.

This is happening at a time when Russian armor and infantry are being stalled at the north, south, and eastern fronts.

This is also happening at a time when American munitions are about to be loaded into Ukraine. (June-July.)

This is also happening as Ukraine is asking the US if they can use these Munitions inside Russia.

I really don't like that the sources on this article are missing.

Sure, that’s a lot of money for the wealthy who control 93% of stock, but it’s also tens of millions of Americans who will have a more comfortable and secure retirement. In fact, the number of Americans who have over $1 million in their retirement accounts grew by 20% in the last quarter of 2023.

Fine and dandy, except that half of Americans don't have a retirement account. Or 47% of Americans.

So while retirement indexes are up, 1:2 people are not going to see that.

Inflation eased slightly in April — the first time this year that has happened. Overall inflation edged down to 3.4% and slipped to 3.6% when you exclude food and energy costs. (food expected to rise by an additional 2.2%)

Good to see the brakes are working. But just remember that not everyone goes out to by a car or house on a twice-a-week basis. But everyone does with the grocery store. Which in Biden's defense, he has started trying to pull back.

Though effort =/= job done.
