Welp, it had to happen eventually. Somebody will want to talk politics so here it is. This is specifically for US Politics
Question for onlookers: How does everybody lean politically?
I'm not sure. The Epstein stuff is so guarded I don't know who it would hit more. His associates seemed to learn Dem tho
@Vermillion-Rx Isnt the best moment to realease the info (if it hits dems) during elections?
Ppl have short memory, in 4.5y it wouldnt matter that much.
Using said troops against harmless and powerless working people, not "worst of the worst criminals " as promised
From what little I know. These are enablers. They make themselves human shields.
There is no goood or easy choices going against this tactic. cognitive dissonance is written into it.
Enemies can use it and so the human shields can use it themselves.
I dont know do they know they are using it, but they essentially do.

As shit as it is, If mother would throw the fists at the police coz her murderer son is led on electric chair she'd have to be contained. Working woman.
It would led to everyone not be able to do anything, coz someone is always bad, od choices is bad.
I come from a country that gave power of liberum veto* to all important persons in a country. It led to crippling the country and then it to be stripped and divided amongst neighbouring countries. Basically without a shot being fired. SAME country that some time before stopped Ottoman empire invading Europe.
- any single person could veto any decision, "no questions asked"
Act of war and at war are different
Israel didn't sign the nuclear inspection thing, so how could they break it
If the peaceful demonstrations against ice are being ignored, it is because they are completely unpersuasive. I'm not sure why you think this is a winning argument
If the violent demonstrations are a distraction, they should stop doing it
Rule of law. Illegal aliens....
Ice deporting illegals and the executive enforcing immigration law is the rule of law. As is stoppinng violent or disruptive demonstrations
Tiresome, Republican supporters pretending bombing Iran is somehow not an act of war. Iran, a country still in cooperative compliance with the treaty Trump backed out of and open to regular IAEA inspections. Attacking with Israel, a country NOT in compliance with non proliferation treaty despite actually possessing hundreds of nuclear weapons. Trump pretended to be in active negotiations as a cynical cover for the impending planned attack, which BADLY hurt US credibility in the world's eyes.
As for the alleged gun attack on ICE agents, look at how all the PEACEFUL demonstrations against ICE raids have gotten ignored and openly scoffed at by Trump and his followers, yet when someone dares to finally shoot BACK, you all clutch your pearls and talk about Rule of Law.
It's a microcosm of our Imperial excesses in the middle east, arming and supporting a genocide then crying Rule of Law when Houthi take action and sink Israel bound or related ships. SAME people who scoffed at countless peaceful college protestors and actively silence them by kicking them off all social media and expel the without refund, But Cry Rule of law when ships and cargo get targeted.
Make peaceful protest impossible, make violent revolution inevitable!!!

Which one. Are we currently at war with someone?
Troops against harmless people
You mean rioters? (see photo)
Deficit
The congressional budget office does not do dynamic scoring. They do not account for economic growth, tax incentives, etc.
So deficits are calculated by simple scoring and not other factors. The Republican party is also set to start cutting other spending
There were also cuts to mandatory spending in entitlements and the border funding was absolutely necessary. Keeping illegals out and getting rid of the ones here will end up keeping taxes and welfare lower over time

Forgot to add, as typing on mobile prove an exasperating PITA...
- Unmistakable signs of cognitive decline, from rambling nonsensical tweets, to embarrassing responses in press conferences, notably the one about arms shipments to Ukraine where the reporter called out his inconsistent statement and he responded by confidently saying the opposite of it.
Cope is thinking that i prefer 100 things i dislike over 1 thing I dislike
Kamala Whether Other Party would have proven better holds no bearing on the question asked.
Invoking that, represents a cope on the individual level, and a manipulation tactic on the Party level. Note that it led you to stop at the Epstein question thus ignoring multiple other serious issues already emergent this early in his term.
- Imperial Ricochet, putting heavily armored troops on our own streets. Using said troops against harmless and powerless working people, not "worst of the worst criminals " as promised
- not stopping wars on day one, but dropping 7+ figures on new ones
- adding massively to the deficit and transferring wealth from working to ruling class
