Your picture misspelled "magats". Actually, it misspelled "magats who follow a network that argued in court they're not actual news and everyone knows not to take them seriously." Remember, their legal name is Fox News Entertainment because they're an entertainment channel, not a news network.

It also moves us towards energy independence. It reduces foreign control over our energy by countries and organizations like OPEC.

As we wait for the possible confirmation that this is the best Labor Day weekend ever, let's remember that no matter when it happens anyone sharing kind words or glowing obituaries needs to be voted out of office for the audacity.

But they do love their guns. Should be a lot of calls of betrayal amongst the "freedom loving" bootlickers who welcome a police state because Great Leader said to do so.

The way we keep marching towards a police state, it'll be Trump coming for the guns to keep himself safe. Can't wait to enjoy the confusion that'll cause with their base.

It's amazing how fast so many haters changed their tune when their cult leader said it was ok. Then they suddenly changed their minds and ran into the issue that they had no charging stations because they resisted having them installed. It was never about the tech, it was about the fear mongering.

Even Gary Johnson said the debt owed to veterans was sacrosanct when he ran for President. This administration doesn't care about people or their sacrifices. Only about corporate interests and how much they can grift for money and favors.

The Dems have no guts, no leadership, no plan, and no unity. I won't be surprised if they lose big in the next election because all they seem to be able to manage is "strongly" worded letters. Dems are going to have to abandon their "leaders" and put in grass roots wins like New York.

GOP politicians only care about things when it affects them directly. Rubio's grandfather made it in, so of course he doesn't care about any of the hypocrisy because it means he's already in as well. He's getting what he wants, other people looking for the same thing don't matter.

The GOP loves to say "will of the people" when an election favors them. But once the people say something they don't like, they've got no problem throwing their power around and saying we shouldn't listen to "traitors", or whatever power term they're throwing around to scare their base.

All they care about is power and their cushy jobs. They'll follow both without hesitation. When Trump was a competitor to getting into the White House, they couldn't attack him enough (toothless attacks). The second it looked like he was getting the votes, they couldn't kiss his ass fast enough.
wiegeabo (@wiegeabo.bsky.social) reply parent
They don't know how. The Dem "leaders" are weak and haven't put up a fight in decades. They literally can look at the GOP playbook on how to fight and shutdown a government from all that time. But don't have clout or guts or charisma to unify the party But I think most of them are just too scared.

Americans don't know how to do it. We've forgotten everything learned in the later half of the 20th century. Ironically, Philly football fans seems to be the exception. The plowed right through police barriers like nothing.

Are we surprised? Every time Obama took a day off, Faux News and the GOP bashed him for not working, wasting tax payer dollars. Yet every time Trump went golfing (blew through the Secret Service budget in less than a year), or had events at his locations (paying himself those dollars) - silence.

Oh, there's a rich segment that does. And they're using this time to stock up on their off-shore accounts so they can bail on the country when it fails. Then there are the 'believers' who will be left out in the cold and confused when everything they stood for fails and is proved fraud.

Actually, an interesting point. Any cosmetic plastic surgery is just gender-affirming care to look/feel more like oneself and gender. So all plastic surgeons should call their (gop) clients saying their surgery may have to be canceled because it falls under G-A, and is banned by the white house.

NASA is a civilian administration. Not military. Space was already part of the Air Force domain, and was perfectly fine there. But then Trump had to make himself look like a badass to all the military hard-ons and do something pointless.

Oh, I don't doubt he didn't read it. Assuming he can read, it would take effort. He just let everyone else make up the stuff they want, let chatgpt spit out the executive order, then signed it as if he'd done all the work to make himself look good to his base.

Basically, no piece of paper is worth anything if everyone is either going to ignore it, or let it be ignored. Also, it's a good example of why there's separation of powers, and what happens when the executive is given too much.
