@DerGermanBobbie@AndrewDesiderio@LeaderJohnThune Tillis and McConnell aren't running for reelection this year. Thune cannot make credible threats to either of them to change their votes on SAVE Act. And Thune does not really want to pass that Bill, despite what he may say in public.
@joanieblondell@christiaan_post@EndWokeness@Pismo_B Do yourself a favor; read a few books about your country: how it was settled, why the European people came here, what they faced as well as the real history of the American Indians and their place in the story. Your views may change but at least they will be informed by facts.
@joanieblondell@EndWokeness@Pismo_B The American Indians in the United States were a neolithic culture with very limited metal working. They waged war regularly, killing and displacing other tribes; then, in turn, they would be attacked and displaced. The white Europeans did only what has been done forever.
@TimOnPoint Doable, soon, if there is a complete change in defense procurement and design of new systems. Current system is sclerotic, slow,unimaginative, built on cronyism and self-interest. Heads must role, DARs and FARs must be nuked, speed and quantity must be drivers.
@Ivan_Snook@DataRepublican@infantrydort You can believe what you want and pretty much say whatever you want (there are exceptions for criminal threats and conspiracy. But how can a person who wants to overthrow the Constitution and government by "any means necessary"take a truthful oath to uphold the Constitution?
@DataRepublican@infantrydort Loyalty oaths were used by various US States from 1920s to early 1960s to ferret out Communists and Communist sympathizers from government employment, including public universities. I think that such loyalty oaths were generally upheld by federal courts. But times have changed...
@DiariesEmpire@NealOKelly I agree that in the long run a split was inevitable, likely over demands for massive taxes and manpower demands by late Napoleonic wars. Would a First American Revolution starting in 1812 rather than 1775 have been better or worse for GB?
@WallStreetApes Do idiots like this plan to amend the Constitution? Because they wld never get the necessary votes by the States to abolish the Senate or the Electoral College.
@DiariesEmpire@NealOKelly Of all Britain's colonies in 1763, the 13 North American colonies were by far the most ethnically British. The split was not a foregone conclusion but could have been avoided if the Colonial legislatures had been given a role to consent to taxation.
@satterlee_mark Ignore his race and consider his mind. Thomas Sowell is one of the greatest political philosophers of the past 100 years. Yes, he absolutely shld be awarded the Medal of Freedom; he is a great American.
@PDXReal1 On a scale of 1-10, she is a solid 3. Portland could be such a great city, but its embrace of radical far Left policies and endemic corruption has destroyed it. There is likely no way for the city ever to recover.
@DiariesEmpire@NealOKelly I prefer to think of it as the great tax avoidance war (among other things). If your German King only had the good sense to mollify us with a few seats in Parliament, the rupture would have been avoided for at least two or three generations.
@Maria95239969@SenEricSchmitt You lack basic reading and oral comprehension skills. Or you might have a sub 80 IQ. Or maybe a Democrat, in which case, all of the above is true plus you have a serious case of TDS.
@syskusa I have one without the star for a second award, but I never was in combat or out of US, so it really is a participation trophy for me. That said, I am glad I didn't go to Canada.
@RealJamesWoods His old man was a corrupt piece of sh*t too. Gavin is just better at the corruption. He and his equally corrupt wife act like royalty. The sad fact is that this illiterate POS still may be the next President. If so, it will be the end of our Country.
@golden_saurus@libsoftiktok@WFCPreacher No. The police on duty wield immense power; when they abuse those powers they shld be disciplined, including removal.
