I hate that this isn’t the most infuriating thing I’ve heard today. It might not even make the top three.

‘There is nothing, Lady Galadriel’, said Gimli, bowing low and stammering. ‘Nothing, unless it might be - unless it is permitted to ask, nay, to name a single strand of your hair, which surpasses the gold of the earth as the stars surpass the gems of the mine. I do not ask for such a gift. But you commanded me to…
Let’s not forget the pledge of allegiance (which all public school children are obligated to recite every morning, regardless of their families’ positions on religion).
Unless you exclude foreign policy, all US administrations of the last several decades have been bad. Like war criminal bad. That’s America’s sad reality, and does the average American’s inability to empathize with some poor Syrian kid half a world away really surprise you at this point? America is a callous country.
He also called for giving “no quarter.” A no quarter order is a war crime (and, in the US anyway, is usually most closely associated with the Civil War, where white Union soldiers would be taken as POWs, but black Union soldiers would be offered no quarter and executed after a battle by Confederate troops).
Excellent point. Historically, soldiers joined in the storming of the Bastille.
How does Tom Cotton not have an ethics investigation or a visit from the FBI because of this? Jesus.
Underrated: the Iraqi PM slightly flinches and smirks at the first shoe, then half-heartedly swats at the second one to cover his tracks.
You can’t fucking using the military to do anything to their own civilians. Everyone in the entire history of the world knows that. You can’t take a soldier and send them back to their neighborhood or where their parents are and order them to open fire on the people they knows and loves. You can’t even send them…
Never thought “Death to Americans” would be alluded to, by a sitting US Senator, in an NYT op-ed, but here we are.
It’s a close race, but Tom Cotton is in the running for the worst of the worst.
Hey, remember that hero who threw the shoe at George W. Bush back in 2008?
Tom Cotton is a fascist who doesn’t support the 1st Amendment. A Congressperson like that should be banned from their seat.
I assume you mean me, and if you had the knobs to just ask me yourself I would have told you that, if I personally hadn’t been aware of the difference in Trump’s immigration policy, the point they posed is actually a good one. And not every commenter with the word burn in their name is a troll.
Troll or not, I can’t believe you even have to type this to anyone.
But as opposed to Obama, and Bush before him, Trump’s administration enacted a blanket zero tolerance policy on illegal immigration, therefore referring all illegal crossings for immediate criminal prosecution. And because children can’t be held in detention facilities for adults, parents being separated from their…
