Are you under the impression that the senators calling for this have any power whatsoever to enact laws? John Thune runs the Senate schedule and he’s a loyalist.

They were willing to dismiss this murder with all six other angles until this one. They deserve nothing but derision and social castigation. You don’t get credit for being the last person to recognize evil.

I remember. I was alive in those ancient times. He made a terrible bargain.

Not sure why you’re letting off the other 30% who voted for Trump, unless it’s just because that’s obvious. They have agency. They go in the bin too.

The idea that only a third of us are good citizens is sobering but completely believable. Jefferson worried about this at length in his writings. He was right on that count.

Before that we had “INS”, and they weren’t militarized to nearly this level.

I don’t know how old most folks on here are, but on 9/11 I was a sophomore in college in upstate NY. Our entire culture changed over night. The 90s were truly over and a new, dark, dystopian world began to emerge in a way that previously privileged folks in this country could feel viscerally.

Some of my friends didn’t come back from the wars. Others did but they lost their souls along the way. Bin Laden could not have possibly been more successful in what he was trying to do.

It’s time to stop posting.

Then don’t actually believe that. They just don’t care. They’re taunting everyone who isn’t outright evil.

He’s been murdering the letter R for sixty years.
