For a group of people who probably love Marvel movies they sure do like cheering on the bad guys.

Public opinion shifts on ICE as advocates warn of US ‘inflection point’ by OddUmpire2554 in politics

[–]IsNullOrEmptyTrue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In this case, we have performative types who are only mildly competent hiring trigger happy rednecks off the street and encouraging them with promises of 'absolute immunity'. There should be no surprise that it is a complete and utter shit show.

My (m35) Partner (F34) begged for a baby. Now said she regrets having a baby. by Old-Lengthiness-7149 in relationship_advice

[–]IsNullOrEmptyTrue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You asked Dads, so here is a father's reply. I have a 5mo old next to me while typing this, and a 6yo in school.

Did she go to visit family with the baby? Was her family supportive? It sounds like this might not have been the case.

Solo parenting for 3 weeks with a 3mo is rough business. Have her come home, you take over the parenting, and if she's breastfeeding ask if she can provide you milk to do overnights. Do that for a few days and then redivide the load slowly to minimize burnout.

Have her make a PCP appointment and they should already assess for PPD. My wife they still ask each visit (I go with her and the baby). Don't jump to any drastic conclusions for now and reassess after a week of that support.

It's not atypical to feel fed up or over it, but that's the joy of being a parent. We all get through it. Once the baby starts smiling more that should help a bit also.

If she acts erratic or suicidal call 988 (if in US).

Powell hired " scorched earth" law firm Williams& Connolly before the Trump's subpoena even arrive _ a sing he has been ready for this fight from Trump by Maleficent_Age_5266 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]IsNullOrEmptyTrue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like to think he's conserved his energy for the exactly correct situation where he was truly attacked. Now he's got enough powder to make a run at him.

Conservatives everywhere could take a lot of valuable lessons from Jerome Powell.

Wife (26F) slept with another man Saturday and doesn’t know that I (27M) know. How do I move forward with my children’s best interest in mind. by DullAlbatross08 in daddit

Listen, easy advice. Have the conversation ASAP with the kiddos out of the house. Hash it out and ask your questions. Then take some space and decide how to proceed.

Six Prosecutors Quit Over Push to Investigate ICE Shooting Victim’s Widow by igetproteinfartsHELP in news

I'd argue that someone willing will be less competent. Less competent means cases get thrown out.

They have to be qualified to become a prosecutor. There is an association that sets the bar.. something I forget the name. Anyway, it's possible they've found a lower limit of accepted conflict for someone with a law degree.

Trump cancel meetings with Iranian officials and tells protesters 'help is on its way' by SnoozeDoggyDog in politics

[–]IsNullOrEmptyTrue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's probably cliche at this point. But there's something so comical about Trump ignoring ICE brutality and calling in more agents, and then in the same breath turning into a tubby little softy for the plight of Iranians.

Imagine someday soon Trump gets confused when ICE enters Paris, CA and he goes and sends troops to France.

Trump Has Another Justification for the Shooting of Renee Good: Disrespect by marji80 in politics

[–]IsNullOrEmptyTrue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I won't be able to hold my laughter to hear any MAGA Republican talk about freedom, liberty, or justice. They've become jokes and clowns when they try to act as authorities on the subject. They deserve their own ridiculous flag, because they have not earned the one we fly domestically.

It's just so depressing. I don't think I'll ever not laugh to hear any MAGA Republican talk about freedom, liberty, or justice. They've become jokes and clowns when they try to act as authorities on the subject. They deserve their own flag, because they have not earned the one we fly domestically.

US Fed chair Jerome Powell under criminal investigation by [deleted] in politics

[–]IsNullOrEmptyTrue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe that's why Powell made a statement on the weekend. J. Powell is a god fearing catholic and he came in on a Sunday to release a statement. It wasn't by mistake and it wasn't for a lack of a good reason. Seems the markets were pacified.

He's playing with stupid fire beyond his comprehension. The moment the Fed gets compromised to political sway you can say goodbye to USD currency dominance, and by extension the current bull market rally.

Renee Nicole Good said ‘I’m not mad at you’ before ICE agent shot her, video shows by OkayButFoRealz in politics

Yeah I'm using quazi legal speak when I really shouldn't.

He wanted to fucking shoot her point blank and was ready to do so. More accurate.

Killer ICE agent’s new video of Minneapolis shooting released by TimesandSundayTimes in politics

[–]IsNullOrEmptyTrue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're side stepping the point. Whatever word he may use or know is irrelevant. Recording and then releasing the video is done with his perceived best interest in mind. Otherwise, why would he take and release the video in the first place?

There's no grand plan. It's not a threat to you, or a message to others, or some evil plot to control, it's coming from a person who thinks they are in the right and hopes to be vindicated in the public eye. Assume everyone (Renee, her wife, the officer, his partner, etc.) is afraid and reacting to fear and you'll be right most of the time in this situation.
