    then he slayed another who tried to hit him with a skateboard. It turns out if you attack a man with a gun you get shot.NOS4A2

    And it turns out if you attack BLM protesters with paintballs and pepper spray, you might get shot too. What's your point? That using deadly force against non-deadly force (skateboards, paintballs, pepper spray etc) is OK? Or what?

    Trump and his influencer supporters immediately manipulating this tragedy to launch a political attack on ANTIFA while tacitly supporting the Kenosha killer. These rats would happily see both sides slaughter each other to keep power. :vomit: :vomit:

    Like Israel and the UAE were ever in danger of a conflict. LMFAO. The poor brainlets who think this means anything are beyond help.

    "Israel and the Emirates have long maintained a thinly veiled secret relationship over mutual interests, and the idea of formalizing it had come up several times over the past year."

    Reelection-purposed political posturing more like.



    "the moves are largely symbolic because the orders are unlikely to take effect anytime soon, if they do so at all, because the power to implement drug pricing policy through executive order is limited. Voters will not see an impact before the November elections, and the drug industry is sure to challenge them in court.

    ...most of the proposals cannot be implemented via executive order. Instead, the administration must complete the rulemaking process, which could take months or years."

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/07/24/trump-expected-sign-drug-pricing-executive-orders-friday-angering-pharma/

    Political pantomine. Some of it probably in response to stories like this, which more closely reveal the Trump administration's relationship with big pharma.

    "Government contracts obtained by consumer advocacy group Knowledge Ecology International show that the Trump administration is giving pharmaceutical companies a green light to charge exorbitant prices for potential coronavirus treatments developed with taxpayer money by refusing to exercise federal authority to constrain costs.

    Through the Freedom of Information Act, Knowledge Ecology International (KEI) last week got hold of a number of heavily redacted agreements between the Trump administration and major pharmaceutical companies like Johnson & Johnson, Regeneron, and Genentech."

    Most likely this is a PR stunt carefully engineered to make sure nothing significant will actually change.

  • Coronavirus


    We will probably need blanket mask wearing rules too as, after having got down to single figure new cases, the government decided to let American tourists come here under self-policing quarantine. That has predictably not worked out too well and cases are up again. Thanks, Trump virus.
  • Coronavirus
    Even the orange fuckwit has been wearing a mask recently. If he can learn, anyone can. Recently made mandatory at my local store. I have no problem with that. It's certainly preferable to being locked down again.
  • Why was my thread removed?

    It was removed because it was incoherent. It also contained a lack of basic knowledge of English grammatical nomenclature, e.g., referring to "I" as a consonant, along with several spelling mistakes, which cemented my impression. Maybe there's a point in there somewhere ("it" as a dummy pronoun is an unusual aspect of grammar that has been discussed here before), but if there was, it wasn't expressed to the level of clarity required. If you'd like a second stab at it, send me your revised OP first and I'll consider allowing you to post it.

    I can't find the full context in which you used the word "fags" (even from our changelog). But your interlocutors are right to point out it's a homophobic slur and its use could get you banned. Back to topic now, please (or the thread will be closed).

    Putin helped Trump and Republicans get elected, the least they can do in return is let Vlad kill a few US troops. I agree with the GOP, no big deal here, just business as usual. Trump 2020 :death: :party:
  • Joe Biden (+General Biden/Harris Administration)
    Assuming Biden is elected, here are a few things he could immediately do that would make me feel better. In no special order.

    1) Close Guantanemo

    2) Commute the sentences of prisoners, mostly black women, sentenced under harsh mandatory sentencing guidelines for minor drug offenses.

    3) Nail down universal health care.

    4) Immediately fully reinstate effective as of their date of being fired or reduced every federal employee fired by or forced to resign or reassigned by Trump not for legitimate cause. Think Sally Yates, for example, and Marie Yovanovich and Alexander Vindman and Andrew McCabe, et al.

    5) Announce a full, complete, comprehensive criminal investigation of all things and persons Trump. Not as a witch hunt, but as a combined effort to identify crimes and criminals and punish them, fully document the history, exonerate any who can be, and within the history to identify the lies and the liars, and the cost of the lies. That is, to heal wounds, they have to be cleaned out.

    5, i) For example, Trump presumably files and pays taxes. Either he has broken laws or he hasn't. There is much anecdotal evidence that he's almost never met a law he didn't break. Did he break any tax laws, and if he did, he needs proportional punishment. And if he did not, if a complete investigation of his taxes across years reveals he broke no laws, well then, good for him! But I doubt that's the case.

    6) Reverse every rule, law, directive issued by the Trump's administration. I cannot think of one that is not rotten, obscene, disgusting, and corrupt.

    7) Commit to reuniting every child separated from their families by Trump, and provide - or at least offer - citizenship to each such child and his or her family.

    8) Invite the Mexican government to officially participate in a wall-destruction program. A joint artillery exercise where possible would be nice! But repudiation by total destruction.

    edit, forgot one.
    9) Review all appointments under Trump to the federal judiciary, disqualifying - and prosecuting - for cause any found to have lied about their qualifications, or for any other appropriate reason.

    And anything anyone thinks should be added. Of course Biden's administration will have a lot to do that has little or nothing to do with Trump. But this listing should be limited to just those things he should do to repair and rehabilitate after the disease that is Trump.

    Yes, unless there are extenuating circumstances (someone is complaining about being extremely depressed or suicidal etc and we're worried our actions could have an unusually strong effect) we just ban on the basis of the required standard.
