It's like all the loudest voices either screamed themselves out or they aren't being platformed anymore and/or we just finally, collectively tuned them out for a change. It's kind of nice, innit? Happy Inauguration Day!

Quote:Originally posted by SIGNYM: Most Democrats Think Their Party Sucks, Feel "Burned Out": CNN Poll A 58% majority of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents say that the Democratic Party needs major changes, or to be completely reformed, up from just 34% who said the same after the 2022 midterm elections, when the party retained control of the Senate but lost the House. Over that time, the share of Republicans and Republican leaners who feel the same way about the GOP has ticked downward, from 38% to 28%. -CNN

Trumptards hate to be called Nazis and Racists because they understand those words mean they are being viewed as contemptible and Trumptards are certain that is unfair. When Trump is attacked, Trumptards have the same reaction: it is unfair. Trumptards will never understand the contempt for them is justified, no more than the slave owning Confederates and Jew killing Nazis could understand why they were attacked despite their marvelous achievements and wonderful personalities.

Quote: The inflation crisis was caused by massive overspending and escalating energy prices. That is why today I will also declare a national energy emergency. We will drill, baby, drill. America will be a manufacturing nation once again, and we have something that no other manufacturing nation will ever have: the largest amount of oil and gas of any country on Earth, and we are going to use it. We’re going to use it. We will bring prices down, fill our strategic reserves up again, right to the top, and export American energy all over the world. We will be a rich nation again, and it is that liquid gold under our feet that will help to do it.

Quote:DPR [Ulbricht's handle, "Dread Pirate Roberts"] connected with Redandwhite, who was FriendlyChemist’s supplier, and wrote that “FriendlyChemist is a liability and I wouldn’t mind if he was executed.” After negotiating the logistical details of the murder, Ulbricht agreed to pay Redandwhite $150,000 in Bitcoins to kill FriendlyChemist. DPR paid Redandwhite, who later confirmed that he had received the payment and carried out the murder, and sent what appeared to be a photo of the dead victim to DPR. DPR replied that he had “received the picture and deleted it,” and thanked Redandwhite for his “swift action.” ....Later, DPR ordered four other murders through Redandwhite.... One of the government’s expert witnesses was able to link the payments for all five murders to Bitcoin wallets located on Ulbricht’s laptop. ....At the sentencing hearing, the district court resolved several disputed issues of fact. For example, because Ulbricht contested his responsibility for the five commissioned murders for hire, the district court found by a preponderance of the evidence that Ulbricht did in fact commission the murders, believing that they would be carried out. The district court characterized the evidence of the murders for hire, which included Ulbricht’s journal, chats with other Silk Road users, and the evidence showing that Ulbricht actually paid a total of $650,000 in Bitcoins for the killings, as “ample and unambiguous.”

Quote:• LBJ's order gave the Secretary of Labor the authority to ensure equal opportunity for people of color and women in federal contractors’ recruitment, hiring, training, and other employment practices.
Quote:• It required federal contractors to refrain from employment discrimination and take affirmative action to ensure equal opportunity "based on race, color, religion, and national origin."

Reading bits and pieces of early Trump actions, I pump my fist over many, have qualms about some, not sure what to think about others. Don't have time to assess, and (unlike SECOND and THUGR) I don't take my opinions from somebody else.

Quote:Originally posted by 6ixStringJack: I haven't forgotten all of the context involved that makes Trump's win look much, much, much worse for Democrats than you're pretending right now that it is. You've seen all that math. I was laying it out for you every day in the elections thread. One big one that you always need to keep in mind is that in order for Democrats to actually win a Presidential election not only do they need to take back those 2 Million votes, but they're going to need to grab about 5 Million more additional ones above and beyond that like they have historically needed in order to win the Electoral College.

What will voters do when Trump can't lower the price? Vote for J.D. Vance? Or vote for a Democrat? Prices are not in the control of Presidents, but 99% of voters will never completely understand that. The top 1% do know who sets prices because they set the prices. The 1% also set wages, but 99% of voters think it is the President. Who controls the economy? 99% of voters think it is the President, but once again it is the top 1% who control it. There are gonna be a lot of voters disappointed with the Republican Party because it doesn't make their dreams come true. It can't because it doesn't control what the top 1% do. The system where the top 1% have most of the control could be disassembled, but that ain't gonna happen because most people in Congress don't understand that the 1% took charge of America two centuries ago because Congress would not take charge, and 99% of voters are confused, uncertain, dithering between Democrat and Republican. Personally, I think the 1% are doing a pretty good job running America for their best advantage. But if Congress would stop avoiding its Constitutional responsibilities, America would run even better. My favorite and simplest example of irresponsibility by Congress is the fact that there have been no declarations of war from Congress since 1942, but there have been numerous wars, most of which were lost because Congress could not make up its fucking tiny mind to either win or stop a belligerent President from botching a war. See Vietnam. Or Iraq. Or Afghanistan. The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at https://www.mediafire.com/two
