What could possibly go wrong.

Fix Your Hearts or Die It's a invitation, not a threat. The path to liberation for lonely men is feminism.

"A man free of patriarchy is a man who has found not only every woman's humanity, but one who has at last discovered his own. The actual path to liberation for lonely men is feminism—because pursuing an identity based on dominating others is self-isolating."

‘I Am Sorry for Misleading People’: Tucker Carlson Delivers Jaw-Dropping Mea Culpa for Endorsing Trump Tucker Carlson apologized for campaigning for President Donald Trump, declaring that he would be "tormented" by the decision "for a long time" to come.

I know it sounds crazy, but: Have you considered inviting Tucker Carlson on your show?

Words I never expected to say:
Good on Carlson for saying this.

Carlson continues: “In real ways…millions of people like us are the reason this is happening right now….I do think it’s…a moment to wrestle with our own consciences. We’ll be tormented by it for a long time — I will be. And I want to say I’m sorry for misleading people.”
Good for him.

Tucker Carlson Makes Shocking Admission About His Support For Trump The former Fox News host and his brother lamented their support for the president over the past decade.

Something I never expected to write: Good words from Tucker Carlson:
“‘…I and everyone else who supported him…we’re implicated in this for sure,’ Tucker Carlson said. ‘It’s not enough to say, “Well, I changed my mind” or “Oh, this is bad. I’m out.”

If you tax them enough, the worst will move to another country.
And, more importantly, if their residency status changes, their donations to (purchases of) politicians & political parties can be categorized as foreign election interference.

Your question answers itself.

The postcard campaign would mainly be a mail-in to the White House, with us each writing a personal note on the back.
Reporters can then ask, over & over, how many postcards have been received to date.
& if they can get pictures of the bags being delivered.
Etc. etc.

How do we do this? We need, I think, 2 things to start:
- a hashtag
- a postcard
My hashtag suggestion:
#JCPOA-2.0
My postcard suggestion:
Any image will do—or perhaps no image at all—but I suggest the text be prominent & read:
THANK-YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR REJOINING THE JCPOA!!!

Trump May Negotiate A Rerun Of An Obama Deal He Tore Up Sanctions relief in return for a moratorium on nuclear fuel enrichment is the exact arrangement that Trump and many Republicans criticized for years.

www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...
However & whenever this stupid war ends, the “deal” will certainly be compared & contrasted to the JCPOA.
Obama will probably be too classy to point this out, but we don’t have to be.
Let’s get ready now to remind Trump of this at every opportunity.

Beautifully said.

Trump denies being 'under pressure' to make Iran deal ahead of Wednesday ceasefire deadline The next phase of peace talks is uncertain after Iran says it has

www.bbc.com/news/live/cl...
Trump is so easy to read.
He denies being “under pressure” to make a deal, which a sure sign he feels under pressure to make a deal.

Trump set a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz-after cursing at and threatening Iran for closing the passageway-then had the navy seize a ship

And again threatened them with war crimes-while concurrently sending a team of negotiators to engage Iran in peace talks

These acts are irrational and insane

What, as opposed to a “hinged lunatic”?

On the right is someone NFL doctors say is 6’3, 230 lbs with 5% body fat

On the left is someone White House doctors say is 6’3, 224 lbs with 4.8% body fat

If the White House is THAT dishonest about something so clear, why should we believe anything they say about anything?

…kleptocracy.
- He lost in an election in which:
1: He used his control of the media to tilt the playing field, primarily by denying media access to his opponent.
2: Votes appear to have been accurately counted.
3: He acknowledged he lost.
4: He stepped down.
What word would you use for him?

Listened to your opinion that Orban was not a dictator or an autocrat.
Ok, fine. What would you call him?
Let’s first agree on some realities:
- He attempted to control as many public institutions in Hungary as possible.
- He oversaw a pervasive culture of corruption &…

Not all international laws are equal in their enforceability.
What international law codes has the US signed on to that are (a) applicable to destroying bridges & power plants & (b) can be adjudicated in a court of which the US is a member?
1 or more of the Geneva Conventions?

Just wondering:
Not all international laws are equal in their power.
What international law codes has the US signed on to that are (a) applicable to destroying bridges & power plants & (b) can be adjudicated in a court of which the US is a member?
Is it 1 or more of the Geneva Conventions?

This is foolish & counterproductive.
(& of course, this only 1 example of many)

I think I would say it is a real problem. Language is, in part, a social signal that the speaker uses to present themselves as a member of a class or cohort.
When the audience you are speaking to uses “prisoner” or “inmate” and you use “Justice involved population”, the speaker is signalling a…

(Please don’t say “Nobody, because they would be killed if they tried.” Even if that’s true—a big if—saying this, gets us no further than our current state of unproven assertions.)
