Local police aren’t trained to track and apprehend drug cartels across county and state lines. That’s what we’re talking about here.

Kamala Harris is my senator, I think she’d make a great President, and I’ll vote for her if she runs.

For me, resolving our conflict with North Korea in a way that doesn’t involve a devastating war and a destruction of the global economy for the foreseeable future is the singular most important issue right now.

I think there are two basic schools of though among those opposed to Trump, which Haberman clearly is.

That’s simply not true. I’ve been a NYT subscriber for years read the paper from top to bottom every morning, and not even the conservative opinion writers support Trump.

Yeah, literally 50% of all my yearly consumer spending is done on Amazon.

Here are three things the average American doesn’t, but probably should, know about Latin America.

I’d go even further than that: Unless Trump can create a sense of chaos through implementing a particular policy, he’ll simply stall until chaos arises out of his inactivity.

Funny they should mention that- Nigerian immigrants to the US actually have a higher median income than native born whites.

The term White Supremacist would be spot on for this woman, as she believes in the literal genetic superiority of “caucasoids” (which would include many of the peoples of central Asia and North Africa- but hey, what does scientific accuracy have to do with anything?).

You want to help industries and people who have been left behind? Implement a Swiss or Canadian or German-style national healthcare system which unburdens business and de-stresses those worried about paying their medical bills, moving for work, or quitting their jobs and entering the gig, artisan, or contractor…

Right, but in the same way that Jews have spent thousands of years commenting on the Torah, then commenting on the comments from the Torah, there are Christians who likewise analyze aspects of the Bible they believe were perhaps inspired by god but written by men who had something other than the interests of humanity…

For the same reason that some people might choose to buy a ramshackle farmhouse and remodel the interior. They feel comfortable within the basic structure but cannot live with rusted out pipes and linoleum floors.

The writers of Black Panther, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, were a couple of Jews from the Lower East Side and West End of Manhattan who grew up during a time when Marxism was pretty fashionable in intellectual/Eastern European Jewish/artistic circles. So fashionable, in fact, that even Thomas Sowell was a Marxist in…

Not necessarily. You might be a scientist, for example, who believes in the possibility in something in the universe that transcends science.

No, not particularly great literature. But, there are people out there who like to build upon tradition. So, for example, there may be someone who grew up going to church but doesn’t believe that heaven or hell are literal places, who wants to incorporate some of the philosophy of Christian writings throughout the…

ONE can view the Bible metaphorically, like literature. Many Jews (most, in fact) view the Bible this way, and I’m sure in a world of 7 billion there are plenty of “reform” Christians and “reform” Muslims who view the New Testament and Koran similarly.
