| Brenda: Seems a new thread can be posted but that is all. |
| Brenda: Okay, no can get into threads again. |
6ixStringJack: You're going to suck on MTG's cock just like you were sucking on Dick and Liz Cheney's cock now, are you?  |
| second: Former GOP congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene led the furious backlash to President Donald Trump’s foul-mouthed Easter Sunday threat to Iran, writing on social media: “He has gone insane.” Greene, who was once a Trump loyalist, said that everyone in Trump’s administration who claims to be Christian “needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God,” and “intervene in Trump’s madness. I know all of you and him and he has gone insane, and all of you are complicit.” You too, 6ixStringJoker. Get a paying job with medical and stop watching porn all day. [go to link] |
| 6ixStringJack: So you're just going to continue to spiral then, huh? |
| second: The newest head of the Roman Catholic Church, Pope Leo XIV, has gone out of his way to point out how anti-Christian Trump is. [go to link] |

| second: “I don’t need international law,” Trump told The New York Times in January. Asked if there were any limits on his powers, he said, “Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.” If governments of the Western World submit to the conscience of Donald Trump, then I would advise them to begin writing their obituary. [go to link] |
| second: Trump voters would not have voted for him if they cared about what is illegal in life. If Trump carries out war crimes with impunity, the West will have lost whatever moral authority remains in its grasp. The Geneva conventions, the laws of armed conflict, and the architecture of rules designed to spare civilians from the worst of war are symbolic of all that we stand for in the West — of how democracy restrains our inner demons. But those principles are not self-enforcing. They’ve endured because Western nations, led by the United States, treated them as binding on themselves first. The moment America becomes the country that bombs desalination plants and calls it diplomacy, we have not merely broken a rule, we have announced the rules are dead. [go to link] |
| 6ixStringJack: Why do you insist on clogging the tags up with your TDS and making your mental problems everyone else's problems? |
| 6ixStringJack: "War crime" according to who? The people who want America dead, or the people who just fuck us over after we bleed for them? Did you not get the memo yet? The world you thought you were living in 2 years ago is dead and never coming back. |
| 6ixStringJack: "6ixStringJack wrote about splitting hairs." Oh yeah? How so? Trump said something which you don't approve of, and I said I VERY MUCH APPROVE OF IT. How is this splitting hairs? Do you even know what splitting hairs means? |
| second: "6ixStringJack wrote about splitting hairs." It should come as a surprise to no one that the leader of the free world might be actively considering — and perhaps eager to carry out — direct attacks on civilians or civilian infrastructure in Iran. This is how he thinks. This is what he does. And these days, he’s got an obliging coterie of staff willing to indulge those brutish impulses. You needn’t be a law of war expert to render judgement on Trump’s threat this week. If he wants to bomb power plants and clean-water facilities, seemingly to punish the Iranians as a way to get leverage over the regime, it’s obviously immoral. But there’s also a term in international law for deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure to inflict suffering on a population. That word is “war crime”. [go to link] |
| 6ixStringJack: It's not as if this would happen en masse. Once word got out that it happened to a few people, we'll never have an illegal trying to enter our borders again as long as we don't revert to being pussies like you. |
| 6ixStringJack: I agree. Shoot them in the kneecaps. It's what John Conner would have wanted. Just make sure we don't take them in and put them in our hospitals after the fact. |
| second: "6ixStringJack wrote: Shut up, loser." We were in the Oval Office for what was supposed to be a short chat about opioids getting smuggled across the border, and Trump unspooled again. Red-faced and clearly frustrated, he complained that the troops at the border were ineffective because they couldn’t use deadly force. Reminded that he couldn’t kill unarmed civilians, Trump pitched another approach.
“Then shoot them in the legs if you have to!”
His outburst silenced the room.
By the look on his face — and the looks on ours — Trump hardly needed to be told what we thought. It wasn’t the last time the topic came up, and the President seemed aware he was playing with fire. At one point, he eyed me on the couch, jotting down a meeting summary.
“I don’t want any f**king notes,” he snapped. “Stop taking notes.”
I dutifully obliged and closed my notebook. Of course he didn’t want any documentation. He didn’t want essays like this to be written in the future. [go to link] |
