Members Wendy Posted July 2, 2022 Members Share Posted July 2, 2022 All the little talking heads tried to push the "Cassidy Hutchinson lied!" scenario. Too bad there still appear to be those besides her that backed it up. And now Peter is getting his ass dragged for it. GOOD. These fossils don't care about REPORTING news. They want to MAKE news. Even if it kills the country. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Juliajms Posted July 3, 2022 Members Share Posted July 3, 2022 I am trying so hard not to be filled with anger and hate. Situations like this are going to happen over and over again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 3, 2022 Members Share Posted July 3, 2022 Between this and the "eliminate the filibuster now!!! Don't just tell people to vote!!!" type talk that is obviously impossible, Hogg seems to have fully moved into the dead-end "do something" side of Twitter. I would say this is a sad waste of his activism but I don't remember him accomplishing much of anything in activism... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted July 3, 2022 Members Share Posted July 3, 2022 That's true, but at a time when gun control activists have probably had some of their bigger success in recent times, his Twitter basically being an interchangeable "do something!" outlet makes me wonder if he just does not have that type of involvement anymore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 5, 2022 Members Share Posted July 5, 2022 What are the chances of Col. Alexander Vindman and his brother Yevgeny being interviewed as children in 1985 by Ken Burns? It opens a poignant video essay that is worth a viewing. No paywall to climb over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noel Posted July 5, 2022 Members Share Posted July 5, 2022 Yep. People don't know other people's lives, and quite frankly, it's none of their business. Hell, I stood on top of Mount Zion and preached the word of the gospel that it's nobody's business. In this case, a 10-year-old girl is stripped away of her innocence and you got these people in Ohio who are saying, "Nope. While you work on your 5th or 6th grade homework, you're carrying this fetus." Despite this poor girl's circumstances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted July 5, 2022 Members Share Posted July 5, 2022 Wasn't Sunak one of the more well-regarded people in his Cabinet (for whatever that is worth...)? I wonder if this finally means the end of the road. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members I Am A Swede Posted July 6, 2022 Members Share Posted July 6, 2022 More trouble for Boris Johnson... Boris Johnson fights on but hit by new wave of resignations 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 6, 2022 Members Share Posted July 6, 2022 Ever since Johnson was mayor of London, I always thought he was an oaf. I am surprised he has lasted this long but the Brexiteers were desperate for him to “get Brexit done”, I guess. Please register in order to view this content In terms of the abortion issue, I think we are at the beginning of a wave of lawsuits that will challenge the ruling by the Supreme Court. And if I were to guess, I think the cavalcade of lawsuits will be a sustained wave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted July 6, 2022 Members Share Posted July 6, 2022 @DramatistDreamer As a resident of the city where he was mayor, I can confirm that he always was an oaf. More than that: venal, corrupt, completely bereft of ideas or direction -- he just wants to stay in power for power's sake. A disastrous PM at a time when the world desperately needs competency and imagination. The UK is crumbling under some serious problems, many similar to the US (almost-10% inflation, bottlenecks in jobs, goods and services, the poor getting further squeezed by inflation after over a decade of austerity cuts and hollowed-out life options, legal/policing/health systems at breaking point). Boris has zero policy ideas to solve problems. He just does not care. He and his cabinet of braying idiots (Sunak and Javid at least have two braincells to rub together) are a disaster. He will cling onto power as long as he can, and maybe his successor will be even worse because BJ purged the Tory party of actual brains and promoted ass-kissers who would never overshadow him on the brain-trust front. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
