I agree with what you said, but if we really wanted to thank the troops we’d boost their pay scale. I think they’d prefer that to spending 4 hours on their feet getting their eardrums blown out by a marching band.

When I was 18, I was driving my moped and got in a collision that would have killed me instantly if I hadn’t had a helmet. I’d grown up with Tri-Care (free military insurance) and didn’t know my insurance info or even how it was supposed to work. Because I couldn’t remember, I was ignored for several hours and almost…

Jefferson also changed the State of the Union from a speech to a written letter, which is how it was handled for a century afterwards.

If the GOP lets him get away with firing the special counsel, they probably aren’t going to blink at him rigging an election. It’s kind of their thing.

Three week deal. If they don’t fix DACA by then, we shut the government down again. The leverage is ours, and this is how we use it. All we gave them is more time to meet our demands. Hell, in exchange for us “generously” giving them three whole weeks to do what we want, they gave us years of CHIP funding. We won,…

They get CHIP funding for a significant period of time and can shut down the government again in 3 weeks if McConnell does not bring a DACA deal to the floor. This is a major political victory, and it makes me worried for the future of progressivism if you really can’t see that.

He’ll never be able to tie a noose. Not with those stubby little fingers.

I’m with you. I believe Grace’s story and I don’t think that she did anything wrong in the encounter. But from what I can see here, neither did Aziz. They both made assumptions about what the other wanted that were incorrect, and led to an upsetting misunderstanding. But the biggest thing Aziz did wrong wasn’t asking…

It’s not possible for them to get what they deserve. They’d be a smear of ashes less than halfway through.

Sure, in the same way that the Empire and Rebellion both used droids and lasers.

As cringe-y as the phrase “I don’t see color” is, the attempted meaning is “I evaluate you as an individual, without any racial biases.” It is super-Becky virtue signaling (everyone sees race, and it’s tedious to either pretend it doesn’t exist or make it the sole focus of an interaction). But white people who say…

So you have an engineer buy it with cash, then sign the title over to Daimler. A straw purchase like that is totally legal in the US, and I can’t imagine why Germany would be any different.

He’ll never be able to tie a noose with those tiny fingers.

Democrats have been vocally opposed to it for weeks, and it seems like there’s been a daily Op-Ed from a major progressive figure condemning it in the Post and Times. The problem is that democratic opposition means nothing if the GOP can pass it on a party-line basis. That’s why they’ve been asking people in purplish…
