It’s almost as if foreign policy is an incredibly complicated matter or something.

People have this idea that the U.S. can intervene for humanitarian reasons in other countries’ conflicts without (1) the appearance of illegitimacy or partiality or (2) losing American lives. Let’s be clear: intervene or abstain, SOMEONE is always going to be mad, both domestically and abroad, and humanitarian…
Well, focusing on the issue central to this post, the question becomes “What response is the right one?”
How long will The Intercept carry on the “b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-but Obummer!” line into Trump’s presidency? A year? 2 years? 4? 8?
Oh man. I just cannot with this comment. As an ex-DC native who was there for Obama’s inaugurations I am well aware of how crazy it can get, but can you come off as more “special snowflake-y?”
Sunnyside_Lady - not sure what City/State you need, but here’s the generic Rally Bus - March on Washington page.
No no, you’re the asshole. To suggest disenfranchised voters shouldn’t protest the election of a literal nazi sympathizer because you might be late to work one day? Fuck right off.
I encourage people who can’t go to DC to look for an affiliate march local to them. Facebook is an easy way to locate other cities hosting the march. I’ll be on vacation in Portland at the time, but we’re going to march there. 16,000 people have confirmed they’ll be marching in Portland. I’m from California and I…
As someone from DC: Bring it on, protestors...
cool, yeah - your comfort and convenience is definitely more important. Noted!
I get the feeling you haven’t been living under a rock for the past 1.5 years. However, you seem to have trouble grasping the severity of what this Hi-Vis jacket with legs stands for. You only have to read about his cabinet appointments to realize it’s going to be opposite day from anything Obama’s tenure did.
Back in the 2000s it was a common tactic for protestors to organize at rallies by their willingness to risk arrest. People who could not risk arrest were “green,” and stayed in the permitted areas. People who were “yellow” or “red” and were willing to risk arrest had to be prepared for that possibility. That included…
Nope. This is not how it “Always is.” That’s the point. That’s WHY so many women are traveling to DC. The bureaucracy may be the same, but the circumstances and sentiments are not, therefore our government should not be responding with the “same old, same old” line.
The thing Republicans don’t seem to realize is that if they weren’t so damn prejudiced and stupid, they would find a large conservative demographic in Hispanics.
Rachel was always super conservative on the show as well. Sean, on the Boston season, always just seemed like a hard-partying frat dude.
Man Jason was so hot! He dated that girl Aspen or Timber, don’t remember. I’m glad he’s still cool. I really miss old school Real World.
that “communist” community has arguably the strongest economy in the state. unlike his backwater cuck district.
“I apologize to Congressman Duffy for referring to him as a moron. I should have said he is a liar and a charlatan.”
Slightly off-topic: IS anybody other than me finding it a little creepy that his daughter Ivanka, seems to be preparing to fulfill the FLOTUS role? It seems that Melania has little or no interest in being FLOTUS. In fact, her attitude this entire time has been more along the lines of “I did not sign up for this.”
