Agreed, but he disappeared well before the election.

 

I've often assumed Harris didn't want to insult her boss by going against him, because I got the impression she was planning to give Netanyahu what for once she took over - especially with him escalating things further and further. Did anyone else get that vibe, or was it just wishful thinking on my part?

Out of sight, out of mind.

I think it's useful to point out those afraid of voting for a woman are down on a level with those assholes.

Misspelled hooliganism, sorry.

No, the uber-wealthy who control the media - among extreme influence over most other things through their financial sway - have been doing most of the damage for at least a few decades now. It's a story repeated throughout history.

I'm sure it's not many because as I understand it the legal limitations make it too difficult. I've read it's actually easier to go to Mexico.

I doubt Trump is going to care enough to keep his promises. He ran to avoid jail and for the ego trip from winning - he got both, so he's gonna coast and do whatever his handlers tell him just so long as they let him take full credit for anything positive.

They will tell him to do things that will benefit them by removing the guardrails on the economy so they can exploit the hell out of it in record time. As such, it'll initially look good before it burns itself out, by which time most of his term will be up anyway. By that time he'll have gotten his sycophants to ensure he is fully immune to prosecution, along with a more fully stacked Supreme Court to ensure it stays that way.

Need proof? How much has Mexico paid into the border wall, eh? Plenty of other unfulfilled promises from the first time around to point at, if you need more.

You didn't mention a VPN, so when you said "moving" I naturally thought you meant physically... ...(ツ).../

Can't answer for anybody else, but from what admittedly limited information I'm aware of there are many reasons I'd not want to move to India - Modi, pollution so bad in places you can hardly see through it at times, rampant ~~huliganism~~ hooliganism, sexism, mobs severely beating/killing people (most not even nearly for "justifiable" causes), high unemployment, castes, people still openly using public streets for restrooms, etc. Doesn't seem like it's any better than the Ununited States of America.

None of the above. Entitled ain't my groove.

 

People are calling for violence against FEMA on TikTok and X, new reports say.

I seriously don't understand why these people aren't immediately tracked down and arrested for terroristic threats. This BS is way beyond any reasonable "free speech" limit.
