The meek are not going to inherit the earth or anything else besides a plot of sharecroppers land outside the city walls. No matter our delicate sensibilities, it is still a dangerous, fractured world filled with actors who will do anything to get or retain power. If Trump, January 6 and the right wing desire to rule permanently isn't enough to wake us up, it's over.

Now it is too late to replace him without completely delegitimizing the process. Biden fucked up by not making sure the DOJ was staffed with the right people from day one. I remain hopeful but that's only my liberal DNA acting up. Odd's are we'll get our asses kicked again.

Simple: we liberals are a bunch of fuck-ups on a never ending quest to spread our sense of good. No matter if a bus is coming fast, there is always time to stop and pick-up a piece of litter.

Excellent news! Merrick Garland traveled to Ukraine on a mission of Justice. "The Justice Department said Garland announced the launch of a "War Crimes Accountability Team" that will be responsible for overseeing the administration's work to hold people accountable for war crimes in Ukraine. Garland named Eli Rosenbaum, a 36-year veteran of DOJ, to lead the team." "There is no hiding place for war criminals. The U.S. Justice Department will pursue every avenue of accountability for those who commit war crimes and other atrocities in Ukraine," Garland said in a statement." Well, thank the currently popular deity for that. We can't have anyone in other countries not being held accountable for their heinous crimes against humanity.

Remember, it’s not dementia until you believe it too.

Well, there it is, of course. We'll all be long gone when unhappily ever after hits. Unfortunately some of us think peeing in the pool just before we climb out is poor form even if it would save the 25 cent fee for the public toilet. Others, too many others, simply don't care.

To directly quote Carl Sagan: "They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

You simply do not believe the overwhelming scientific evidence that AGW is true. To me you are no different from all who believe that the that the 2020 election was stolen and that the Earth is flat is true. There really isn't anything you can be told that will change your view. You're getting no converts here so why not move on?

20 years of being told where to crap and what to do and the habit is just to hard to break.

Yep

So you are a proponent of strong price controls and a heavy government hand on businesses like in China? We're at 8.8%, Germany is at 7.9%, your data, in business we call that the same number. France is at 5.8% and the Netherlands is at 8.8%, again your data. All economies do not react to inflationary pressures in tandem owing to structural differences. For example, you don't see people going to shop or pick up the kids in gigantic, gas guzzling trucks in Europe. Truly, with you it's like arguing the existence of God with a priest.

The same Bidenflation affecting the entire rest of the world, most much worse than here?

Also coal mining profits. That’s way more important than a functional democracy.

Please name the selfish idiots.
-
The nation’s founding principles are being shredded by selfish idiots and you think it’s a fair swap for more guns. Do you ever wonder what your kids will think about that in 10-15 years?

Second biggest?

Now that is really funny. Thanks.

We are really in a crappy place today. Justice Clarence Thomas is arguably in cahoots with his Qanon and conspiracy theory believing wife who participated in the January 6 insurrection. Both Kavanaugh and Coney-Barrett apparently lied to get their seats and, by any honest rational opinion, Gorsuch sits in a stolen seat. If you read this and think "sucks to be you libtard" or "it's about winning and we won" you are no patriot. You are no true American. You are a traitor to our fragile constitution.

Probably I'm splitting hairs here but I think they have a need to believe. Seems to me it's about personal investiture, tribal alignment, drinking buddies, and neighborhood BBQ's. That sort of thing.

Same reason others invest in solar: it’s the future!

Lawyers have Doctorates, right? I wonder he was published in the legal sciences.
-
Because they have lot's of coal and don't give a rats ass about anything but themselves, you know, like nearly half of America. Maybe if, like cigarette packs, pictures of flooding in Bangladesh were required to be displayed on boxes of Bisquick you'd get the picture.

May’s Global Temperature coldest in 9 years

Now that is seriously funny. -
One good thing about inflation is that treasury rates rise in tandem, sort of. I'm looking forward to locking in some 10 year notes and enjoying the spread in a couple of years after the inflation rate declines.

Yo, Brent, talk about a fit for you and the job is open!
