    How should west respond to potential (likely) Russian invasion of Ukraine?

    You realize you have little of importance beyond Tomahawk range? An invasion would neither be needed nor desirable.

    Merged Gaza just launched an unprovoked attack on Israel

    From day 1 they have had the non-negotiable position of getting their hostages back. They know ceasefire and talk will not work.

    Is Populism a threat to Democracy?

    I think the problem is more on the low end. The high end they might not have the time but generally can throw money at it.

    Is Populism a threat to Democracy?

    You say "has been shown to help"--but note the problem of "challenges in assessing the long-term success". That sounds an awful lot like "we can't actually show any success".

    Why you should vote for Trump

    Not always. Even pre-internet there were a lot on the "left" that seemed to always take whatever side would favor Moscow even when that went against what they supposedly wanted. Yup, the internet gave them far more access. Yup. You can't really have a population that's easy to manipulate...

    Why you should vote for Trump

    I don't think in general that this is much of a factor. They're giving wildly false impressions about what the left is about, not actually creating the craziness. However, I have long suspected that Antifa is somehow funded by the right.

    What will happen Nov-Jan?

    Just the usual situation of trying to address the issue by shooting the messenger.

    Trump threatens to deport pro Palestinian protesters!

    AFIAK the only way to be stripped of citizenship is to show that there was something fraudulent about your application. Furthermore, not all countries allow dual citizenship. If someone takes up citizenship with a new country (as my wife did after marrying me) sometimes you have to give up the...

    Signs of dementia show up well before diagnosis

    https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/31/business/economy/alzheimers-disease-personal-finance.html Poor financial decisions, vulnerability to scams.

    How should west respond to potential (likely) Russian invasion of Ukraine?

    You realize Russia would by far fare the worst in WWIII?

    How should west respond to potential (likely) Russian invasion of Ukraine?

    3. The Russian army returns to Russia. Ukraine isn't going to pursue.

    How should west respond to potential (likely) Russian invasion of Ukraine?

    Neither France nor Germany have enough firepower that there's any chance of Russia not being able to stop an invasion using said weapons. Thus Russia is not facing an existential issue as could possibly happen with unrestricted US weapons.

    The Turd's "tax cuts"

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/lynnmucenskikeck/2024/05/31/federal-taxes-are-set-to-skyrocket/?sh=2ef7b0893d4b To make the numbers not look too horrible the little-guy tax cuts were temporary. The big-guy tax cuts were permanent. Now we see the right talking about big tax hikes as the...

    Next up in movie propaganda films: Reagan

    Something caused the launch people to swing from their usual prove-it-safe approach to a prove-it-unsafe. There's been a lot of speculation that it was from the White House, him wanting to refer to the teacher in space in a speech. However, AFIAK nothing has actually been proven in this...

    Merged Gaza just launched an unprovoked attack on Israel

    You realize that after 10/7 there were families praying that their loved ones were dead? Foot, meet bullet. Your quote amounts to: Stop shooting, then we'll talk.

    At least 8 dead in Mass Shooting du Jour

    No, because the guy inside could clearly see the situation at that point. Firing on a cop for banging on your door isn't justified.

    How should west respond to potential (likely) Russian invasion of Ukraine?

    From what I'm seeing online that's Moscow trying to cover it's ass. The supposed rockets don't fly that far, it was your air defenses engaging something flying over.

    At least 8 dead in Mass Shooting du Jour

    IIRC it was a noise complaint. The problem is that the guy acted almost the same as a bad guy would have.

    The hush money indictment

    And to some extent he's probably right. They're going to care more about a crime that a person might commit again than a crime where there's no chance of recurrence.

    The hush money indictment

    Why? And note that there are other more serious cases still pending. This one is only important because he was unable to stall it and thus it happened before the election. And dropping out isn't an option--he has to be all-in, he needs to subvert the country in order to make all the other...
