Let mexico have them. Those drug cartels would own them in no time. What was left would be no match for the true genius that is the current president of mexico.
Mexico would have to get in line. An oil rich independent nation with minimal defenses right on our border? They'll be a protectorate within minutes, and PR can take their place as a state.
How about the fuck not? We can afford to keep funding Ukraine almost indefinitely (despite what Republicans claim). But we can’t afford sending lives to die.
He doesn't want to send American troops there. He wants to give Ukraine all the aid they need as quickly as possible in order to avoid that rather than drawing it out as the Republicans have started to do over these last few months. The sooner Russia can be stopped, the better for the world. It's not just about Ukraine.
Ehh... the headline is sensational and speculative. If the judgement against Trump is for the $250M James is suing for or even more, and if Trump Organization properties are liquidated to pay the judgement, then Mar-a-Lago, one of the Trump Organization properties, could be taken from him.
Some other framing would have been better. The juicier story is James' team goading Trump into his numerous unwise admissions. Ideally, Trump will be left entirely destitute once all the cases against him are tried, but it is idle to speculate about financial verdicts before the trials are even over.
This is not actual real news. It's bullshit from a billionaire bought and controlled far right "news" site designed to get more gigantic tax cuts for billionaire elites. Loser Trump's mindless rambling shows way more signs of dementia than either Moscow Mitch or Dark Brandon.
If there’s a lower limit there should be an upper one. If we’re acknowledging that different people can be more or less capable in their 80s then we should do the same for late 20s.
But we won’t because anyone young enough is a “dumb kid” to far too many Americans, especially the ones ok with the status quo.
My thoughts on it should be that a politician can serve until the full retirement age as defined by the federal government, which is currently 67. Mental decline in later life is definitely a thing and I don’t feel like people who are in the age range for mental decline should be running the country.
As somebody who generally exists outside of all the cliques and status quos, I can’t comprehend how this isn’t already a thing (especially considering that age has been bumped up a couple times to keep “with the times”)
On paper this sounds good, but in practice I worry if people in power would end up going “lmao let’s increase the retirement age to 100” and then fuck over the citizenry even harder.
My thoughts on the congressional salary is that it should be a multiplier of the minimum wage and congress caht change that multiplier. They want a raise? Then they have to raise the minimum wage for everyone
I’m very much with you there. The other option was rooted in the idea of being invested in improvement for their constituants. As long as you crack down on “contributions” you’d probably also see a lot less PAC money in a whole lot of areas too.
But there should be more motivation for them to see the people succeed. The job itself clearly isn’t enough for a lot of them.
Earlier this month, Republican State Senator Colton Moore called on Kemp to declare an emergency session to investigate and potentially impeach Willis directly in relation to her approximate 2-and-a-half-year investigation that he claims could ultimately spark a “civil war.”
Republican State Senator Colton Moore is a co-conspirator.
