How many of you fuckers didn't give Harris your full support in 2024? That would've done something, you fucking fucks!
I'm starting to see an annoying return of "do something, Democrats!"
Do what exactly?
The Republican Party holds the House, the Senate, the White House, and SCOTUS.
You're mocking the Democratic Party for a resolution against Venezuela "War Powers" as merely symbolic. Welcome to reality. Symbolic gestures are one of the only tools with a rogue President and a Republican Party that won't impeach.

Yes, I know Khashoggi was not a US citizen. That's a point that only the churlish will quibble on. He was a US resident and a reporter for the Washington Post. He courageously risked, and ultimately sacrificed, his life to report on the abuses of his home country. His murder was not just an attack on him, but on the very principles of truth and freedom that bind us all.
I don't think I've publicly commented on #SaudiArabia before, so I will now.
Saudi Arabis is a country that the USA should seriously reconsider as an ally. Quite frankly I believe the only reason they are an ally at all is because SA controls a massive flow of oil to western nations. Yet another reason to do everything we can to end our dependence on foreign oil, aka end our dependence on oil.
MBS murdered an American (Khashoggi) to silence his speech.
One thing I've taken note of is people are outraged about news items that I don't react to at all.
Both consciously and unconsciously I turn away from some news items because quite frankly, I experience both outrage and empathy fatigue. To protect my mental well-being, there's some topics I turn away from.
Part of this is my natural tendency to prefer to become very informed about a topic before I weigh in.
Oh I get it! All these tariffs are POTUS47's sneaky way to combat global warming. By increasing prices on basically everything and crashing the US economy, he's going to decrease US consumption, leading to an overall reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Very sneaky pulling off this green initiative, POTUS47, all the while gaining office from voters that don't even believe in global warming.

Two guys who are wealthy enough to pay for private education including dedicated tutors for their own children want to dismantle the department that helps ensure the quality of free education for everyone including those children with disabilities.
That's it. That's what they are doing. Beat that drum.
I realize many will say this falls into the "blatently obvious" category, but Senator Schumer misplayed his hand this last week.
I believe he thinks it's bad for Senate Ds to use the filibuster to refuse to raise the debt ceiling, with the ensuing chaos and government shutdown. I agree.
However, he should've acted strategically and pushed get something in return for their support. Republicans have tried used the same methods when they were the minority party.
US Congress has considered, but not passed, at least one bill [1] to stop making the penny. That Congress has decided to NOT stop making the penny implies Congress WANTS to keep making the penny. If Congress changed its mind, it can pass a new bill at any time.
Any journalist covering #POTUS47 order to stop making the penny needs to cover where the true power lies to make such a decision.

I and 81 million of my fellow USAians kept Turnip out of office in 2020.
You shitbags who were eligible to vote for Harris Walz in 2024 but decided not to, you can cover the next 4 years.
Oh you think it's cool to blame the Democratic Party for the current situation? The party not in power? Unfollowed. I'm tired of reading your idiot nonsense.
