I know Netanyahu supporters like to accuse people of being anti-Semitic for saying his government is committing genocide in Gaza, but keep in mind that even Jewish groups in Israel are saying that's what he's doing.

Statistically, at least some of these US government workers being unjustly fired must be mentally unbalanced. I wonder how long before some of them take a swipe at the 2 presidents.
To be fair, Trump knows a lot about abusing power. It's one of the few things he's really good at.
We've now entered the "Joe don't give a 💩" era. Taylor Swift never predicted this one.
I understand the reason for the Hunter pardon and it's true he probably wouldn't have been prosecuted if he wasn't a Biden, but I don't know if kicking the hornets' nest will be worth it. 🤔
Aw, come on. A TV host for Secretary of Defense? This is dumb even for Trump.

Hello new Twitter refugees!
That's quality father/daughter time. Hard to believe her mom is Kellyanne Conway. #DNC
Today's a day to thank Joe for the good things he has done. Tomorrow's a day for candidate endorsements. The next day, party unity and full speed ahead.

I've never been a Biden fan but I'm not concerned with whether he can continue doing the job. My concern is whether he can win the November election. That means winning over a lot of voters who are on the fence, not just the party faithful.
Trump is a moron but he has people in his orbit that know more than enough to be dangerous. Go read Project 2025. If you're considering not voting this year, think about the fact that your vote may never count again.
Democracy is more important than hating a candidate.
"Hi, it's Emily from the PC Ontario Fund. Can Doug Ford and the Ontario PCs count on your support? Reply: Yes No"
I think Doug Ford is getting worried about his opinion polls. Just got this message from "Emily" at 416-907-6757. For the record Doug, if I could, I'd put you out of office and into a jail cell.
I'm not a Biden fan. He's done some very good stuff and some very bad stuff. But if you honestly think letting Trump back into office isn't significantly worse than another Biden term, you need your head checked.
The most ironic thing about the Dunning-Kruger Effect is that many people try to use it as a retort without understanding it.
Not familiar with it, or unsure if you really get it? Here's a good interview with Dunning himself.

A screenshot showing a ridiculously incorrect currency conversion: 1 Canadian dollar = 1 US dollar.
Well, that's the last time I use currencyconverter.io. 🤪
It's funny having a boss that likes to call and just "shoot the shit" once in a while. When I see his name on my phone, I never know whether I'm about to get a new project added to my to-do list or just quizzed about my weekend plans. 🤣
No chance of winning, no chance of improving odds of winning next time, no reason to run. Bye Kyrsten.

If the only 2 people with a realistic chance of winning the US election in November are Biden and Trump, I'll take Biden every single time.
The US desperately needs some better options in the next election though, plus an upper limit on the age of candidates.
I don't know who needs to hear this but $55.8b is not a reasonable salary or bonus.

Rudy Giuliani: "It was sexual assault, not rape."
Apparently Giuliani doesn't know what rape is.

Image of a tweet by Public Policy Polling that reads: "30% of Republican primary voters nationally say they support bombing Agrabah. Agrabah is the country from Aladdin."
This tweet is 8 years old, but I can't help thinking the percentage is probably even higher now.
It's absolutely comical how many "Constitutionalists" in the US don't have a clue about almost any part of the constitution except one or two amendments (AKA afterthoughts) that fit their world view.
Half of all people are dumber than average. It's what you do with that dumbness that matters. Will you listen to people smarter than you, or will you believe and spread dangerous misinformation?
I've said it before and I'll say it again, it's not possible to be both a Trump voter and a good Christian. If you vote for Trump, you are a bad Christian.
You can support Israel without supporting Netanyahu.
You can support Palestine without supporting Hamas.
A war crime in response to a war crime is still a war crime.
If you support Hamas OR Netanyahu, you are trash.
