You are right. It was a Paladin post, I should have read the article before jumping on my soapbox. Still bad, but bad in a limited way.

They also constantly refer to ships as 'she' Them things ain't even sentient(yet), much less sapient.

Yea, The shooter IS a murderer but trying to paint the CEO of United Health Care as a saint is patently ridiculous.. The story is simple. A man got pushed to the breaking point by a giant corporation and snapped. He killed ONE man. The CEO's decisions have cause suffering on a MUCH larger...

What does gender affirming care for minors have to do with military policy. We need regulations to stop congress critters from adding that sort of thing to unrelated bills.

So now some right-wing billionaire will swoop in and buy the IP and give Jones his job back.... Hopefully if that does occur, Jones' wages get garnished for the rest of his life to repay what he owes. Man is a serial liar peddling in dangerous conspiracy theories, he doesn't deserve to make...

Not every province leans left, which is why they would have to split it up in order to maintain control. Quebec would also present a bit of a problem.... I'd imagine trying to integrate that province into the US structure would prove rather dicey. It's not 1812 anymore, after all.

He wouldn't like the results of Canada being a state anyway. Canada sits left of the US as a whole and it would result in the Republicans losing power in congress. It would also make the electoral college map less favorable to the Republicans. They would HAVE to split Canada up into multiple...

Always has been. Remember police officers used to break up strikes, all they needed was a call from the executives of whatever company was being affected by said strike. That didn't change until labor laws changed and started offering more protection for workers.

Not afraid to invent NEW war crimes either. Can't decide if calling the Canadian PM a governor is due to him being confused or him doubling down on making Canada a US State.

That's the beauty of it. With it being a capital murder trial he HAS to have a jury trial.

Indeed there are. There are still a LOT of people entrenched in violent fundamentalism in the region, though.

I'm not sure Trump even knows what a tariff actually is. There's a lot of stuff he claims to be an expert on that he's totally clueless about.

Doesn't look like they will, either. Wouldn't be surprised if someone who knows him got him plane tickets out of the country at this point.

I'll agree in the near term it is a win on two fronts. Russia has lost an ally as has Iran.

Knowing his name likely won't help much anyway. Those who know where he is right now aren't talking and he's probably thousands of miles away from New York by now.

Teufel, I wouldn't celebrate just yet. While I'm glad that Assad is gone I do fear that his regime will end up being replaced by a radical Islamic theocracy once the dust settles. One of the primary factions in the rebellion is essentially the Syrian version of Al Qaeda after all. I do hope...

And how is an insurance company a better decision maker than a practicing doctor when it comes to healthcare? Dodge vs the Ford Motor Company enshrined the rule that corporations primary obligation is not to their customers, not to their employees, not for the good of society but to to their...

The way I look at it is that the phrasing is pretty clear, despite why it was put there. If they want to change what the constitution says, they should amend the document. The people who wrote the 14th amendment are all long dead, so we can't exactly get their opinion on the matter. I...

We'll find out in 30 years when the killer writes a tell-all book.

So we are just going to fully ignore the Constitution, then. Hopefully the Supreme Court actually decides the right way when it inevitably comes up for a decision.
