Dude just expressing his feelings, er, freedom of speech.
“We will continue,” she said. “These fucking assholes are not going to get away with this.”
How DARE she call American Patriots such things!!!

U.S. Capitol Police said in a statement that the man made “an unacceptable decision that will be met with swift justice.”
And then pardoned by the F.A.I.C.
Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., who has previously bashed Omar, including seeking to subpoena records about her as she accused her of immigration fraud, wrote Tuesday on X that she was “deeply disturbed” to learn about what happened at the town hall.
“Regardless of how vehemently I disagree with her rhetoric — and I do — no elected official should face physical attacks. This is not who we are,” Mace wrote.
So, still embracing an attacker of women. That tracks.
I have always viewed Minnesota as the state closest to Canada culturally. Minneapolis and Toronto have so much in common. Minneapolis is a city I would have happily worked in in my younger days.
I am not a Jesse Ventura fan but support him on this one.
The EU has worked in terms of keeping conflicts in Europe small since WWII. That was always its primary purpose.
The US due to Trump has given a green light to autocrats all over the world to ignore international law.
The result of that is a significant increase in autocratic governments targeting civilians (because what are the repercussions now? Apparently none really if you pay off Trump and his cronies).
The US has always been a single point of failure for all of that. It’s been a good run. You can’t just blame the US when it fails and you have no alternative.
A friend of mine said this when I was expressing frustration with the first Trump’ administration. “Democracy will likely survive a single Trump term, but I think it will be a challenge to survive a second”. Europe had all the same warning signs we had in the US, without the influence of Fox News and right wing media destroying the minds of a third of the population. We gave you a 4 year window to get your shit together. Here we are.
I know it can appear to be unfair in a lot of ways. But the whole world order was based on a quid pro quo: USA will support and spread democracy and free trade while the U$D will be the world reserve currency. You won’t find that anywhere in writing, but it was the understanding.
It’s worth weighing out the cost/benefits of that understanding before walking it back. The US banking system is privy to a whole lot of info about who is buying from whom, and how much. Only the USA can effectively implement sanctions. Only the USA can rely on a consistent demand for its debt. The benefits are worth keeping in mind.
Yup, lots of cheap capital in exchange for that. It is still poor risk management for Europe to assume that he was going to be one and done. Not so much Trump coming back but the system overall tilting that way.
You never get the followup questions, which annoys me.
“This is almost a quote: ‘I am not going to pay a high school kid minimum wage to come in, and I have to tell them three times to empty out the trash,’” Clouse said.
So who IS taking out the trash? Who are they hiring? If they’ve already addressed their problem by hiring someone other than HS kids, there’s not really a problem at all, is there?
