What are you asking? If you get fired, you go find a different job or go on strike.

The US needs to add long-term contracts to all jobs so this shit can't happen again, but most Americans don't seem to realize how US labor law is shit.

That whole time, Republicans couldn't get anything else done. Just imagine what Democrats could actually obstruct if more of them had the values and willpower to do so.

McConnell and Paul also see the writing on the wall. When the cost of living skyrockets, if democracy somehow survives, the Republicans are right fucked.

Bernie is independent, so of course he can't replace him... They aren't in the same party.

Then they will offer shit support to avoid doing so. Simpler and safer to just make unlocking legit from the start.

Of course it would not.

Yalls have a guy convicted of rape facing zero consequences, and you think saying his name is a shit practice?

Tell that to Harris.

I don't think these are reciprocal. I think these are unilateral, and when countries respond, their tariffs will be reciprocal. The distinction is very important. This is a problem created by Trump, not by other countries. You don't get to choose false language to describe it that shifts the blame.

No, it's not even close to one of the greatest threats. Of course it's up to shady s***, of that there can be no doubt, but it's not ranked in the top five.

Classic baitclick.

I don't think he's dense. Clearly he knows exactly what he's done. He knows that firing people could leave them homeless or dead, and he knows that cutting off life-saving medicine has killed people and will kill many more. His basic knowledge of well known facts is there... It's just that he's so narcissistic that none of that matters. When other people get f***** over it's not important. It is only his ego that matters.

Of course that's my best guess based on his tweets and video clips. It could be that he actually is that dense.

And yet not once did he apologize for that Nazi salute and explain how horrified he was that he accidentally did it.
