  • Trump Orders Navy to Spend Billions of Dollars Undoing Years of Work

    Jump

  • I was talking with a retired admiral this morning about this issue. He said it can't be done without rebuilding half the ship. You would have to rip out and then relocate most of the engineering compartments.

  • Trump loyalist Todd Blanche confirmed by Senate as US attorney general

    Jump

  • "Every Democrat rejected Blanche’s nomination as the Republican-led Senate voted 50-49."

  • What countries do you want to exist?

    Jump

  • Recognize these micro nations built on oil platforms or artificial reefs out in the middle of the ocean, like the Principality of Sealand.

    It would basically be nonstop entertainment with all the stories of libertarian nutbars fucking each other over.

  • Trump accuses oil companies of ‘making too much money’ from his war on Iran

    Jump

  • He's getting blamed for high gas prices and he's passing the blame as usual.

  • Democrats are Socialists: They Support Social Security and Medicare

    Jump

  • Democrats really need to just lean into the Right's socialism accusations. Yes, Social Security and Medicare are socialism. So are fire departments and libraries. Normalize it.

    Yeah, Marx would quibble that it's supposed to describe the economy as a who but who gives a fuck.

  • Dem. Ohio Gov Candidate Amy Acton Scheduled a Meeting With LGBTQ+ Advocates, Didn't Show Up, And Kicked Out Trans People Who Did

    Jump

  • I agree it's a shit situation but the only solution is changing the first past the post voting system. That is slowly happening at the state level but only when Democrats get a significant enough majority to overcome both the centrists and Republicans.

    The idea that there is another option besides the Democrat and the Republican candidates is an illusion in all but the smallest races (I.e. water reclamation district boar seats). Splitting the Dem vote is functionally exactly the same as a vote for the Republican candidate.

  • I always do BLT sandwiches with avocado and leave off the lettuce. They are great any time of the day.

  • There isn't a sea of progressives who usually never vote waiting for just the right candidate. Most progressives vote Democrat just to keep the Republicans out of office as the least worst option. All you will be doing is splitting the vote. This happens again and again, but every time someone thinks "my candidate is different" and makes the same mistake again.

  • This splits the vote and guarantees the Republican candidate wins.

  • Republicans want to end birthright citizenship in US territories

    Jump

  • It was after the railroads had mostly been finished, so the racism took precedence. White conservatives got really scared that the Chinese would have enough population to gain significant political power. Sounds familiar?

  • Miso, cream and mushrooms chicken

    Jump

  • Recipe please!

  • Republicans want to end birthright citizenship in US territories

    Jump

  • Immigration law in the US is and has always has been racist. The first federal immigration law was called the Chinese Exclusion act for fucks sake.

  • Supreme Court justices tell Congress their safety is at risk and more must be spent on security

    Jump

  • Or that the "death threats" are as imaginary as antifa terrorists.

  • Supreme Court justices tell Congress their safety is at risk and more must be spent on security

    Jump

  • If they actually enforced the Constitution and defended the laws as they swore to, they wouldn't need security. Traitors to the people should fear the people.

  • Trump to claim declassified intel reveals 2020 election interference: MS NOW

    Jump

  • Or they will use it as an excuse to give up on the failed Iran negotiations and try a ground assault.

  • Democrats begin pulling Platner endorsements after Maine candidate faces sexual assault allegation

    Jump

  • Slavery should definitely be on the list, your right.

    Pirates may not have raped people on the boats they took, because there often weren't any. The pubescent cabin boys and powder monkeys were a different story however.

    As far as torture, lashings were the standard baseline punishment. Edward Low was known to be particularly violent and liked cutting ears off people on ships he boarded. Keelhauling wasn't as universal as media would indicate, but it was an actual practice.

  • It will never not be funny to me that people are totally okay with a pirate tattoo, but not a Nazi tattoo. Pirates routinely raped, tortured, murdered and pillaged.

  • House Democrats Committee Release Report with Whistleblower Accounts and Internal Documents on Trump's Hijacking of America's 250th Birthday to Enrich Himself, Sell Access, and Harvest Americans Data

  • What I am trying to say is that nobodys hands are clean. Not yours. Not mine. It's convenient that you draw the line so you don't have any responsibility.
