  1. I would add that even trump's own family never showed up to court to stand beside him to support him. Only his base, with hook and sinker hanging from their mouths. Parrot trump's flim-flam. But never-mind. Your well crafted arguments bring to mind Plato and Aristotle debating with a stone wall. The stone wall never changed either.
  2. How Hitler Used Democracy to Take Power Just published in Time magazine. Its amazing how many people draw parallels between trump and Hitler. I guess his actions and language speaks for itself. trump I mean.
  3. Not according to the facts. But as usual facts don't matter to FOX, republicans, nor our own Brent. The US has services as a larger component than every other country in the world in total consumer spending. Inflation has effected services more than manufacturing because services has a huge labor component with goods less so. Little of Biden's spending involves services.
  4. Media, i.e. the facts, have always been a thorn in the sides of dictators. ANYBODY who uses the term or statement: "I don't follow main stream media" . Has already bought into the circus of disinformation. Hitler wasn't the first and won't be the last mass murder-genocidal dictator. But his willingness to slaughter millions of lower "class" Jews, Gypsies, etc.set a new standard. IMO Putin is a better comparison for trump because both seek to be klepto-dictators.
  5. So you're saying the punishment fits the crime. Stealing elections isn't a crime when by Caucasian evangelical birthright they already belong to you.
  6. Judge obviously mistaken because he failed to weigh trump in that decision.
  7. Oh hell thats old news. The Lincoln project made a video four months ago about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-4M85B3HNg Adam Kinzinger had this to say about it “It’s not good. The best way to describe it... take armpits, ketchup, a butt and makeup and put that all in a blender and bottle that as a cologne,” he said. “That’s kind of that. I’ve been amazed that everybody is just kind of learning about this now,” he added. ...Whiffs of the allegation permeated social media, with the hashtag #TrumpSmellsBad trending on X. It could be the reason the trial judge signed a judicial order for the court staff to keep the temperature below 50 F. Others had speculated that it was for environmental reasons.
  8. Like Santos, trump, MTG, etc. facts amount to nothing. Santos was run out because the had actual criminal charges. But when climate change deniers, theocratic government lovers, etc. are the base. As long as McCormick peddles the goods "exaggerated resumes" are a part of the process for GOP carnival barkers.
  9. "Pennsylvania isn’t part of a big, regional program to slash carbon emissions, but coal plants are closing anyway... Pennsylvania’s four other major coal plants are expected to close or stop burning coal by the end of 2028,...The closures reflect the economic and regulatory headwinds facing coal nationwide, which has struggled to compete against cheap natural gas and renewable energy. " Coal, Pennsylvania and the dark ages. Some things never change.
  10. For the first time in SC Brent has seen a ray of light that he might be right about something. Hence the endless toot, toot, toot. Not right that Tesla is going broke like he stated. But a stock price correction is close enough to lean on the horn.
  11. Yep rats, republicans, lizards, reptiles and forever chemicals. They will eat anything to survive, morph into whatever is necessary.
  12. Democratic congressman wants to name MTG as Vladimir Putin’s ‘special envoy’ to Congress Like trump thats not an either-or answer.
  13. Well both MTG and trump have decided that protecting Christianity is more important than world peace or protecting US interests. "The Ukrainian government is attacking Christians; the Ukrainian government is executing priests. Russia is not doing that; they're not attacking Christianity. As a matter of fact, they seem to be protecting it."
  14. No, republicans believe that solar is a bad investment because when the sun stops shining they can laugh at all the liberals for being optimists.
  15. Global energy investment in clean energy and in fossil fuels, 2015-2023 I'll spell it out for you. Worldwide green energy investments surpassed oil and gas by 75% or $750 billion last year. Start some more B.S. threads but this is from the IEA. Its no wonder that you identify so closely with the GOP. Facts don't mean squat with them either.
  16. How exactly does the Liberty University MBA program work? "The world installed 117 gigawatts of new wind power capacity in 2023, a 50% increase from the year before, making it the best year for new wind projects on record, according to a new report by the industry’s trade association." You know that Tesla sales is a small part of the EV equation right? That there is a world outside the US right?
  17. If the mandate of NPR is to report facts wouldn't republicans be excluded by definition?
  18. They had me convinced Russia was a credible military force. US arms exports rose to a new record last year $238 billion. With the US capturing 41% of all sales. Somehow I think Russia will have a harder and harder time peddling weapons to the world. As if they had spare capacity.
  19. The US defense industry spent billions on lobbyists in order to spread fear of the big red Russian war machine.
  20. Nailed Brent and the White cream of the GOP that sells that narrative to the uneducated, poor of the GOP base. Even FOX knows that an hour of White work is worth a days labor of a Black or Brown person.
  21. Hench the old saw "How much justice can you afford".
