Suggesting that journalist @colin_dunlap take his own life by the spokesperson for the Allegheny county executive over him noting there was overreaction to the Canadian smoke is a little more than "tensions"
Imagine celebrating the President unilaterally spending $400B in defiance of Congress after acknowledging he couldn’t, gloating that he did so in a way that would make it difficult for the judiciary to stop him, and yet claiming that you are the defenders of democracy.
@shannonrwatts@RevAmyDYarnall "Guns are the number-one cause of death for children in the US" is true only if you are not counting ALL causes of death for ALL children.
Since this is an era when many people are concerned about "fairness" and "social justice," what is your "fair share" of what someone else has worked for?
@RevAmyDYarnall I don't believe there is no way to prevent these horrible incidents. We need to let go of our entrenched positions and biases to do it.
The US media framework has been fascinating to watch:
COVID deaths prior to January 20, 2021: Trump personally murdered them.
Red-state COVID deaths after January 20, 2021: the Governor murdered them.
Blue-state COVID deaths after January 20, 2021: unavoidable tragedy.😢
@sailinggarden@RBReich Take EVERY dollar from EVERY billionaire and you've got 3/4ths of *one year* of US government spending. That's 9 months, if you take EVERY billionaire's entire fortune (100% tax rate).
Explain again why increasing taxes on the rich will fix our government's spending problem?
One of the bittersweet things about growing old is realizing how mistaken you were when you were young. As a young political leftist, I saw the left as the voice of the common man. Nothing could be further from the truth.
@RepJayapal@RevAmyDYarnall Was that your position when Democrats invoked the filibuster over 300 times in the Senate when the Republicans controlled the Senate?
