Tempus Fugit

Well they’re still sending folks to CECOT, bringing us into yet another Middle East conflict, deploying state level military into their own state to run security for the feds, denying folks their rights all over the place, running illegal crypto scams, selling bribes, illegally firing federal workers, defunding Congress level agencies, the list goes on and on and on and on… The fact that the courts can just be ignored shows they have no real power and can be stepped on as Trump pleases.

I commend the Dems for accomplishing something, but I feel like it will matter little for the near future. They’ve already been successfully dodging the courts or just not complying with almost no recourse.

Ah yes, surely this will fix that deficit we’ve been running for 25 years. Man, these people are smart.

Well no shit. Countries with nukes aren’t likely to be invaded or bombed. I bet Ukraine is kicking themselves for getting rid of the ones they had. I wouldn’t be surprised if this kick-starts a new wave of nuclear proliferation, and I can’t say I’d blame those countries.

Oh please, don’t give me that crap. EU countries have been dabbling in fascism at least as much as America. Viktor Orbán, Karol Nawrocki, the rise of the AfD party in Germany, Marine Le Pen’s National Rally party in France. These folks didn’t come into power because of American voters, y’all voted for them. These folks aren’t American they’re your own homegrown fascists. The polls are from your own people not Americans. So don’t scapegoat us because you can’t accept the EU has a hard-on for fascism ATM.

Oh those poor EU countries so helpless to defend themselves from media and ideas. Children are products of their environment. They weren’t raised in the US. If it’s American media that’s “poisoned” the youth, maybe those kid’s parents should pay more attention to their media diets?

🤣 I’m typically on the side of the EU on stuff like this, but damn. The US is catching strays. How in the hell is it our(US) fault that EU kids are reflecting their surroundings? Right-wing fascism and violence have been trending upward for a while, the US is far from the only country dealing with it.
