I still glad he died. Just that he could have somehow taken Bannon with him.

Christ, even though the majority of my military strategy has been procured from Risk, I know to at least solidify relations with Europe before going for China and Irkutsk.

I think a great way to tell if the person you’re talking to saw ground combat is how eager they are to push the military option. Granted not everyone is the same, but my grandpa (on a minesweeper in Pearl Harbor when it was bombed), my dad (tunnel rat in Vietnam), and a close friend of mine (marine in Iraq mid-2000s),…

Peace is great.

Keeps people distracted and scared so you can do whatever you want. People are social/pack animals and they need to adhere to absolutist ideologies… Nationalism is one of the best absolutist ideologies around.

Some people have small penises and/or other inadequacies that they take out on the world in frightening ways; I think this is a good description of a lot of the neocon ‘academics’ who birthed our Iraq war nightmare.

But hey, at least we’ve got all the spiritual folks praying for very important things like the ratings for The Apprentice.

Outside of the fact it makes defense contractors money, I don’t get warmongering. War is bad. Objectively. I am not some pacifist hippy for saying so. Sure, it’s nice to have good warriors and soldiers, but actually fighting war is bad (and now we have nukes). My late grandfather saw combat in WWII and was a tough,…

Just today that groundhog predicted six more weeks of nuclear winter.

It’s a selective Muslim ban—Red Hatters will think of it as a Muslim ban, no matter what the hashed-up Bannon legalese says. Red Hatters will never know, or comprehend, that Trump omitted Muslim countries that host his golf courses and hotels. Red Hatters will continue to get angry when their jobs don’t miraculously…

Your President himself called it a MUSLIM BAN, you dolt. You can try to spin it another way all you want, but that’s exactly what it is. It isn’t a complete Muslim ban, because he still allows the Muslims he likes into the country, but it’s still a ban. Get your head out of your arse.

It IS the responsibility of the US Marshals — or at least it was. Since Herr Drumpf took office, the Marshals have reportedly been instructed to take direction from the US Attorneys, NOT the judiciary. Without the Marshals, if a litigant chooses not to obey a court order, the order is literally unenforceable. So, the…

I usually don’t care much for infographics, but this is a good one for certain people who can’t be bothered to read more than a few words at a time, and even then it may present a challenge. The only thing missing that would have been helpful would be either an average elapsed time for each section, or an average…

Exactly! Which is why Dictator in chief is dangerous with his misleads and lies. It’s a lose lose, he either knows and decides to lie, or just flat out has no idea.

I work there and when someone comes in on our airline that they speak to in the room and decide to not allow to enter are called deportees on paper and when they call us to come sign the paperwork.

Defendant President Donald J. Trump. Has a nice ring to it.

Perhaps this is already happening and I’ve missed reports, but is there mileage in putting pressure on airlines to refuse to carry out deportations that have been stayed by court order? I understand an airline must comply with legal CBP requests whatever airline employees may feel about the morality, but surely it’s a…

One of the problems is that CBP agents are allegedly forcing their captives (because that’s what they really are) to sign away their green cards in order to be released. Lawyers make sure that due process is being followed and are the witnesses to what’s going on. Right now everyone but CBP is in the dark because…

The problem is these judges are all still treating it like an immigration case, which it’s not. These people are here legally and are now being held against their will. If the judges treated it like a kidnapping case, then you send regular police officers (or swat teams) to start arresting CBP officers.
