Just for the record: “Texas city” = Arlington, TX. It’s located about 1/2 way between Dallas and Fort Worth. Population 394,266 in 2020. Part of the D-FW Complex, “Throughout Dallas–Fort Worth, there is a large lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community. Since 2005, DFW has constituted one of the largest LGBT communities in Texas.[1][2][3][4]” First Gay Pride Parade in 1980. So they are attempting to reverse / erase 45 years of history. Deets from wikipedia.org.

Well, ok, if you insist.

Well that’s kind of encouraging. Keep pushing friends!

AFAIK, It’s typical of photos from that time - 2016-2020. And yeah, he’s real, and a real problem. But really only the figurehead at the top of the iceberg.

Also regards OP’s post, loss of strength, and dexterity of one’s hands correlates with age, loss of strength, and decline of cognitive function in the elderly. Perhaps you’ve experienced shaking hands with someone who is in their 70s, 80s. Compare that to someone in their 20s, 30s. It’s been my experience which correlates with what I’ve been taught about the effects of aging globally, that those who are older compensate with a rigid/ stiff strength where they have loss of neural feedback. This doesn’t just effect motor function, it also demonstrates an effect on cognitive function.

A friend, in reference to this, used the phrase “plastic people”. Sigh, they really are. Remember those photos of trump trying to stand like a normal human being, and failing?

Is it possible he has never flipped a coin, nor ever seen someone flip a coin, that he really doesn’t understand the basic intuitive physics behind “flipping” a coin? smh

I wish Marge the best of luck in this endeavor.

WRT your first question: Yes.

I guess Stevens should just sit on her hands? What are you suggesting as a better course of action? She was elected to do things. And if she does something you criticize. And I expect if she does nothing you will do the same. smh

Big on assumptions, I see. Not criticizing, some folks only exercise is jumping to conclusions.

Not gonna argue the point with ya. And all we’re doing here is yapping, with nothing of substance to offer, right?

So you’ve got nothing. Moving right along.

So you suggest doing what, specifically?

Eep! That sounds painful! #dontstickitinthere

“Republicans can survive if we play team and the Trump administration officials play smart. Neither is certain.”

Neither are certain, and having both is highly unlikely. Let’s make sure it is “doom in 2026” for the GOP. Doom doom doomy doom doom doom.

This IS the point. We The People have to force them to do the right thing, a.k.a. our Right to Petition our representatives for a redress of our grievances. Get on the phone, email, snail mail, text message, and don’t let up.

"Why it matters: Impeachment has been a fraught subject for Democrats this year, with Jeffries acknowledging that Republican control of both chambers of Congress makes any impeachment effort virtually dead on arrival.

"Republicans will never allow articles of impeachment to be brought to the floor of the House of Representatives, and we know that's the case," Jeffries said at a press conference Monday.
"Donald Trump will order them not to do it," he added."

I always prefer to let others make their own decisions, rather than pre-guessing them. Let the GOPers have the opportunity to defend their lack of prosecution of war crimes. And then the DEMs can make a talking point of that GOP decision.

So this should be a warning to all National Guard; Trump is using the Nat.Guard as targets in his attempts to take and maintain control. Do not obey illegal orders if you value your health, welfare, and life, or you may suffer the consequences in either the short term, or later on when your actions bring you to court.

Can anyone confirm, were these illegal deployments? That is to say, as there was no actual local emergency to which the National Guard could legally be deployed, is it therefore the case that these orders for deployment were illegal? National Guard members are also guided by the code of military justice, and expected to not comply with illegal orders, I think. So as the head of the military, Trump gave illegal orders, which resulted in the death of at least one National Guard member, so Trump is responsible for the injury and death of at least one. Regardless of whether this is legally the case, I think it’s important to hammer the message that this death, and indeed many others as well, is Donald J. Trump’s responsibility. We should never let him weasel out of this.

Aww

If that party membership were the “only” evidence of bias, I would agree with you. Heck I’ve considered signing up for GOPer mail, just to waste their funds, too. With this dismissal, it’s clear that there are at least two points of evidence, and they indeed make a direct line which leads to bias. I suspect if one were to look closer a 3rd and 4th linear points towards bias would arise. Prove me wrong.
