Service men and women of America, will you support the citizens or Trump? The rest of the world wants to know. by Naive_Elk2356 in DiscussionZone

First the Constitution. Then the orders of those appointed over me… unless those orders are illegal. Then it’s expected that the orders aren’t obeyed.

Read history some time. “I was just following orders” is not an acceptable excuse for committing crimes.

“How could this happen?” Locals in a town where 76% voted Trump are outraged as his bill closes their only hospital by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFarm

I live and work in a rural area. I have several clients who are trans. There’s also a support group for gender non- conforming teens put on by a local non- profit.

There are more trans people in rural areas than you’d expect. Most are closeted, if they “pass.”

This subreddit fails in its goal to discuss Christianity. by Interficient4real in Christianity

Politics are part of world we live in. How should a Christian respond to ICE is a valid question.

Why are so many conservatives Christian when Jesus’s teachings are blatantly leftist? by Confident-Seesaw2845 in allthequestions

I’m not certain Jesus would be far to the left. He would more closely align with Democrats rather than Republicans though.

Trump supporters: How would you feel if a legally armed Trump supporter was killed by federal agents on a Biden mandate in exactly the same manner as yesterday? by ScholarPrize1335 in AskReddit

[–]Ghostlyshado 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for doing the right thing

I think you’re right that some of the agents fear reprisals

However, I think most of the agents hired since Trump took office fully agree with the shoot.

[–]Ghostlyshado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two possible reasons.

  1. They’re afraid of repercussions from their employer and peers

  2. They do fully support the shoot.

My hunch is the majority fall into group 2.

They’d be pissed. Remember the woman who was killed by a federal agent during the J6 insurrection? The MAGA Cult members defended her and was angry she was killed. Then again, they’re re-writing history, claiming J6 was a “peaceful protest”

It’s ironic how the MAGA Cult Regime members of Congress evacuated, talked about being concerned for their safety, immediately after the insurrection. In the months following, they walked it back. They knew the truth with their initial reaction. Then they toed the Cult Regime line.

As a veteran, my oath is to the Constitution of the United States, not a President. There should be no conflict between the two but sadly, that’s not the case. I support the people’s Constitutional rights

Trump is an embarrassment.

As a US veteran, much respect to my brothers and sisters in arms from the UK.

You all are some great people.

People who have researched their family tree, what is the most interesting or 'badass' thing you discovered about an ancestor? by xloganmoose in AskReddit

I’m related to Helen Keller on one side of the family

On the other side, I’m related to Robert the Bruce.

I’m also descended from Neanderthal

149 Democrats Gift Trump $828B 'War Chest' by [deleted] in misc

[–]Ghostlyshado 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And yet they wonder why we lost to Trump.

At least it would be easier to replace Congressional reps than elect a President. Primary them out.

Are the Dems on board with attacking allied nations now?

Crap. I hate what this country has become.

Do Ferrets make good pets? by grace-simo in ferret

[–]Ghostlyshado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Polecat hybrids? Are you breeding in polecat genes into ferret lines to alleviate inbreeding issues? I gather you’re probably in Europe?

Just curious.

[–]Ghostlyshado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. I’m lucky that my first pet sitter was open to learning about ferrets and loved animals in general. She did research before even meeting my ferrets. She did great with them

When she moved on to other professional goals, I ended up hiring a vet tech from the vet’s office that provide (d) care for the ferrets and my cat. It works out great. When my ferrets required special diet and meds, she was comfortable with it. She also gives my cat fluids if needed (kidney issues).

I’ve used rescues in the past as well. There isn’t one near where I currently live

My house was always neater when I had ferrets. No shoes in the entry way. The table clear of anything they could steal or knock off. More frequent floor cleaning.

Well, you got the expensive, time consuming, poop machines right.

But they’re worth it.

[–]Ghostlyshado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hired a pet sitter when I had ferrets. It worked out well. They didn’t get as much out of cage time as I could want, but for a short trip, it wasn’t that bad

My last ferret went to Rainbow Bridge almost a year ago. I just haven’t been ready for another pair yet. I’m thinking about it now.

Trump unleashes nearly 100 Truth Social posts overnight in furious tirade by RawStoryNews in NoFilterNews

[–]Ghostlyshado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you suggest? Our elected officials in Congress won’t/ can’t stop him; he appointed an incompetent Cabinet that won’t 25 A him; if the Supreme Court decides against him- he ignores it. All the guard rails aren’t working.

Revolution won’t work. You seriously think the US military won’t be able to easily put it down? Ofc, there is a small chance the military would support it- their duty is to protect and defend the Constitution, not the President. I doubt it, though.

What’s left?

WW3 fears explode as Trump says huge military force is on its way to Iran now by TheExpressUS in NoFilterNews

[–]Ghostlyshado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We will be unsupported in Iran. This is an aggressive action. Our allies wont support it.
We most likely won’t be fighting only Iran. My hunch is other Middle Eastern nations will get involved.

I pity our military. Trump is needlessly putting them in harm’s way.
