So does the rest of the rational world! Trump has absolutely no redeeming qualities nor do any of the people associated with him at any level. Joe Biden on the other hand is a wonderful human being.

I didn’t say that. In fact far from it. I’m saying change the laws to reflect reality. You can have as many firearms as you wish just take steps to ensure only those that deserve to have them get them. Its way more than half by far that realize they could still have firearms & better laws too.

children due to the increased withholding of food & medication. The USA has become a pathetic enabler in so much of the oppression that it’s hard to believe it was once a bastion of care & protection. It’s terrible that another school shooter has caused such suffering. But do not forget the rest.
Kerry Kavanagh (@kerrykavanagh.bsky.social) reply parent
should also be shown for the innocent children & adults of the world suffering at the hands of belligerent oppressors & evil leaders. The death toll rises in Ukraine, Gaza, & in many other countries where bombs, bullets, & missiles maim & kill countless thousands. Starvation is killing so many

Another school shooter destroys the lives of the innocents. America, do something about this instead of letting the few dictate to the many…change these immoral laws & disingenuous reasons for having them on your books. However! The outpouring of support & love for the victims and the bereaved

My daughter is now 40. She never had to endure this terror. I can’t imagine the amount of stress on children, every day, going to school with the threat of being exposed to a deadly weapon in the hands of a suicidal shooter. Nor can I imagine the pain of loosing your child to this insane slaughter.

Exactly that! In fact MAGA may just as well adopt a red flag with a big white circle in it and co-opt some ancient symbol to represent an ideology other than what they really believe. Perhaps a MAGAized version of the Rod of Asclepius, superimposed over a hand flipping the bird!

True humanists know that the death of any child or persons for that matter, using any means of violence, is never acceptable…in all corners of the world… & not just in places of learning or worship. Neglect, sexual abuse, & starvation are forms of violence, just as guns and bombs are.

Dickens? One passage from A Christmas Carol is important today. The Ghost of Christmas Present warns Scrooge to beware of two children cowering beneath his robe…the girl Want & the boy Ignorance. So Dickens saw ignorance as one of the worst of human failings! My opinion? Ignorance is not bliss!

In the decades I’ve been an observer of political systems it was very much apparent that American hubris kept the “it can’t happen here” mindset dominant. My late father said to never trust the Russians. He believed that bad things could & would happen if the western powers didn’t pay attention.

Pirro wants to prosecute 12 yo children because, like Trump, she is emotionally stunted & sees them as a vicious reminder of kids in that age group haranguing her in school. Can you imagine how annoying it would be to listen to a 12 yo Pirro, screeching out every word & spreading her bile? 🤢

Keep in mind Trump has never progressed past the emotional & social level of an 8 year old; an 8 year old bully at that, stunted by a lousy set of parents. He’s remained in touch with that 8 year old & relies on a list of nasty behaviours to get along. Tragic his dyslexia was never dealt with!

I hope I’m incorrect but I hazard to guess that Trump really doesn’t know the truth behind the curtain. An internal conspiracy to eventually replace Trump with even greater Putin- friendly traitors is a probable scenario implicitly built into Project 2025.

Dickens was spot on with his commentaries on much of the socioeconomic issues then & now. Are there signs that the US is headed for its own Reign of Terror? A Tale of Two Cities is one of his novels that should be on the reading list of high schools. Also A Christmas Carol.

All true enough. If nothing else these people are dangerously close to making a flawed system so much worse. It’s difficult to be an optimist when greed and incompetence are aligned with a lust for political power.
Kerry Kavanagh (@kerrykavanagh.bsky.social) reply parent
The other thing about the USA is that it’s a big country with 340 million people. That’s a big population to control. Russia has half that with most congregated closer to Europe. The States have big populations on distant coasts. Don’t count on that many of them becoming subservient or even quiet!

It very well may be too late. The only saving grace could be that Trump is merely a puppet of a few known, little known, & unknown “real” Nazis. They may be outsmarting themselves depending so much on this useful idiot, Trump, to keep the MAGAbase happy. Once he’s gone there’s nobody else.

I don’t think Trump is capable of modelling himself on anyone but acts as though Putin is a strong man genius. Trump is a zero without enablers like Miller, & they are following fascism roadmaps; P2025 at that. Despite robbing Russia blind Putin’s ideology is KGB/USSR while Trump thinks he’s a king!

North Koreans are victims of Kim Jong Un. Since he took over North Korea, it's almost impossible to escape. He's fortified the borders to trap them. Many are starving, and some are forced into Russia's military to fight in Ukraine. Their lives are horrific, and they have no way to ask for help.

as much as testing their own war machine and technology in that civil war. While comparisons are often vague, the Trump et al drive to single party rule are just as vile & dangerous to world order and democracy as was fascism in Germany, Spain and Italy.

True yet reasons for doing so at first was for civilian suppression. Later the need to keep the public in line was less important than persecuting the Jewish population & others. At some point they didn’t care about treaties as much as displaying strength. Prewar assist to Spain is indicative of it

I do believe that the same evil mindset is merely laying dormant. There are too many “patriots” who would just as easily kill you for slighting POTUS than follow morality or the Constitution. Human nature hasn’t changed any since the Nazis and unless they’re stopped, your “leaders” will be the same.

Someone in Trump’s gang passed Hitler 101. After WWI Germany was restricted to certain military limitations by the Treaty of Versailles. As we know, finding their way around those limits proved easier than the Allies thought. Miller tells Trump his army is now a police force; Trump 1 - Democracy 0.

Although negotiations were not needed to stop Germany or Japan from further aggression, Allied countries, especially the US leaders, knew that it was necessary to oversee the future economic success of these countries. Eventually that wisdom paid off. Vance knows this, but most MAGA voters don’t.

The USA is indeed overdue for the wake up call that has been in reality, ringing off the wall for decades. For so long, Americans & the world have been deceived that the “United”States exist as a democracy. Minority rule is not a democracy! Specifically a minority rule that controls all the money!
