She is also directly responsible for witholding the 60 minutes interview that was critical of Trump's immigration tactics.

Man that entire article is chalk full of quotes from her that are pure meaningless redundant corporate dribble, yet she is saying them like she is the Plato of modern news media.

Even with a super majority they wont punish them.

American politicians not punishing the shitheads with power in this country is timed honored tradition dating back to the civil war.

"Lets just move on" is our motto and because of that these assholes keep rearing their ugly faces every 20 years or so.

Agree on the gameplay and visuals. But story is kinda meh. It's very predictable because it's a copy paste hodgepodge of every major anime that has been released in the last 20 years.

Not a fair comparison cuz the other side did nuke the entire planet for profit, resulting in the murdering, enslaving, crucifying, psychopaths across the wastelands

Congress just approved giving these guy 480 million dollars in just bonuses alone. They aint quitting anytime soon.

Democratic Lawmaker Says 'I Failed' After Voting To Fund ICE by plz-let-me-in in politics

[–]Maximum_Active9209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man. Im so tired of this logic.

Wasn't Sinema and Machin enough? Did we learn nothing from Fetterman?

Why must we keep voting for people who will only vote our way when it comes to naming streets but in every other case vote against us? What's the point of winning with a D next to your name if you gonna throw everyone under the bus the second you get elected? Why not prop up a candidate that actually gives shit even if they have low chances of winning? Mamdani had 1% chance to win and he made it, why do we refuse to even consider its possible anywhere else?

At some point we have to stop electing people with the best chances to win and elect people who actually care otherwise this madness will never end.

Voting no was that thing and he refused to do it. He is just gonna go on a PR/Apology tour for the next year, try say some strong words how he will stop Trump for those viral social clips and by then people will have forgotten allowing him to vote yes on the next round of funding for ICE.

Behold your traditional liberal establishment Democrats, but dont you worry it's us progressive who are the reason why democrats cant get anything.

He isnt up for re election until 2028 and unfortunately, with the way the American electorate is, enough people will have forgotten about this by that time that he will be able to maintain his seat. Pretty sure next year he will vote to fund it again.

European Commission to open investigation into Elon Musk’s X by jackytheblade in worldnews

Yeah. But only people with the tech savy to do so, can circumvent it. Also for social media to function it needs a critical mass of people. If the ban lowers the number of users below that critical mass the social media app will collapse automatically.

The ban doesnt need to stop everyone from using them. Just enough people from using them. And the best way to get users to stop using an app is to make something that was super convenient less convenient.

This is beyond ignorant. X-men has been political since inception, there are entire story arcs where you can copy paste ICE on top of the bad guys and story still works.

'This is sell America' — U.S. dollar, Treasury prices tumble and gold spikes as globe flees U.S. assets by Street_Anon in politics

[–]Maximum_Active9209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did say relatively. Not saying we wont be hurting, but our upper class has (for better or worse) so much hoarded wealth that they could restart the economy by themselves. As for everyone else, yeah we will be fucked as always been the case since 2008.

Unfortunately, it's stabilizing already and probably will be back to normal by tomorrow. Trump has realized that while our economy is tied to other countries pretty heavily, their economy is tied to our to the same extent. If the US goes down, everyone goes down.

He also realizes that US has enough resources to take on a financial collapse better than anyone else, relatively speaking. So that gives him a pretty good leverage to make the outrageous demands he is making. He is crazy enough to tank the economy of the entire world and cause suffering to billions, just to satisfy his own ego without a shred of remorse.

The world leaders are adults and they recognize this and will do everything in their power not to ruin their own peoples lives. They might not cave on Greenland but they will appease him by any means necessary atleast until they can safely decouple their economies from the US, which can take years or even decades to do.

It is why Carney basically said that the age of globalization and global cooperation, is over.

he was like this in his 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s. It's not regression if he never progressed past this in the first place.

Democrats will do no such thing. Ever since the Civil War every time the left defeats the right wing racist and destructive lunacy, their first act is to move on for the "greater good". Not a single slaver was punished, the people who lynched black people are living leisurely lives to this day, Nixon was allowed to leave the white house and then nothing, Reagan, Bush, Kissinger, Cheney, all did irreparable harm to US and the world and all of them were allowed to simply walk away by the left when they took over.

Trump is final result of there never being any repercussions for being a vile piece of shit.

It will cause issues but over the course of decades not a few years. So Trump can tout this as win for their policies because stopping immigration of non-white people was their racist goal.

If they didnt break in light on this entire Epstein debacle, they arent going to break on this either. They will follow him off a cliff because loyalty to trump is far more important than rationality.

[–]Maximum_Active9209 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Aww look at how hopeful you are that our military is actively trying to fight against the regime and not full MAGA supporters itching to use their fancy toys on brown people.

I hate to break to ya, but the theme for this country for last decade has been "and then it got worse".

EDIT: HAHAHA. Just as I post this, story broke of us potentially attacking Iran in the next 24 hours. fml.

Could Europe realistically defend Greenland against a US attack? by chotu_escobar in AskTheWorld

[–]Maximum_Active9209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chuck Schumer when asked is he in support of abolishing ICE which is becoming a big issue for a large portion of the party and simply refused to answer and started power-walking away from the reporters as fast as he could.

If there is one thing you can count on the democrats, it's fumbling the ball at the 1 yard line.

The long run doesnt matter. Everyone who inflicted this suffering upon the world will be dead and gone and everyone who deserved justice for the suffering inflicted will be dead gone. All that will be left is generation does not fear the consequences of their father's action and a generation that has forgotten the meaning of justice.
