Re: SCOTUS

That is disqualifying. Probably illegal too. You think the Roberts Court cares about minor details like legality and ethics?

Re: Let’s have a war!

They were killed at the music festival and their bodies were transported to Gaza, according to the news sources.

If true, how fucking ghoulish, and likely calculated to increase the number of "hostages" they had to barter with later.

No, the better I get to know Fetterman the more of a disappointment he becomes. In this case, conflating AOC with MTG.

Turns out the Nuns who founded Benedictine College don't agree with Butker's characterization of the college, or appreciate being told to stay in their lane?

Is anyone surprised? Fuck Hamas. This will only empower Netanyahu and his insane rightwing enablers to rain more violence down on Rafah, Gaza, and the West Bank, which will only make conditions for Palestinians worse. @HenMazzig Israeli commando soldiers found the bodies of 3 hostages who were kidna...

If the minimum wage is important to you, there's no comparison between the parties. None. IMO, it's scandalous that the minimum wage hasn't been raised in almost 15 years, July of '29. If it had been indexed and allowed to increase gradually over the years, it wouldn't sound so calamitous to consid...

If he was a teacher at a public school I’d want him fired one billion times over. It’s the position he is in. He needs to serve an example in the environment of which his profession directly impacts.

Re: Tacos v Enchiladas

I grew up on pbj, grilled cheese, (Velveeta), &/or bologna on white bread.

I didn't think of tacos and burritos as "sandwiches" then, and that's never changed.

I think doing so would detract from the specialness of the taco, et al.
