If they don't expect it to actually stand up, then bringing this in is one of the most stupid moves they could do. It's a massive slap in the face to Trump's supporters and a big PR win to him. They're either sincere in trying to make this stick or so detached from reality they don't realise how bad it looks to people outside their little social group.

Or they're trying to rile up his supporters enough that someone will irl fedpost, giving them a fig-leaf justification to start mass detainment of trump supporters.

What the hell is up with Fetterman? I dont know if you've guys noticed but he's acting increasingly conservative in his decision making these days

Grug no like when cheif not pay. Grug look for better cheif, big nose tribe is mad at cheif and pay good. Grug happy to work for big nose instead.

Also, uh.. someone has been taking caesar's quotes and putting trump headers on them and it's pretty frightening how on point they are.

Unfathomably based tbh

Is that an actual translation from Caesar? Because it's a word for word copy of the speech he gives to his soldiers in HBO's Rome.

I rate optimistic because the Western leaders are indeed stupid enough to start WWIII. The Russia-Ukraine war is the tip of it. The Coalition against the Houthis is another front, as is Gaza.

I'm going to throw in and agree with you as you posted before I could say it myself. Everyone knows the expression "Better to Reign in Hell than to Serve in Heaven". From Satan in Paradise Lost. When you're a teenager it's a cool quote because you think yeah - I'll take all the punishment and not bow down. But when you're old you understand how Milton probably meant it. To be so in love with power that you'd rather see everything around you in devastation than to share that power in a paradise. In my career I have run into such people several times, whenever I rise high enough in an organisation that I start bumping my head against the real entrenched powerbases. And these people are exactly the sort Milton refers to - they would quite literally see the collapse and destruction of everything around them before they'd see someone else in charge of it. You wouldn't believe the tens of millions of dollars I have seen thrown away on the basis of someone not wanting to acknowledge another person was right and they were wrong. No exaggeration, personal experience.

These people have started wars and destroyed countries for economic advantage. This is demonstrable fact. They will do it again.

Or they're trying to rile up his supporters enough that someone will irl fedpost, giving them a fig-leaf justification to start mass detainment of trump supporters.

That's one of the two conspiracy minded reasons I considered and decided not to list. The other was that they're deliberately trying to bolster Trump support. I think the actual judges are too stupid for the latter, though. And your theory I think is unnecessary. The sort of person who might go a shooting, typically does so for their own personal life reasons, not out of political outrage - that's just an outlet most of the time (at least in the well-fed West). And the feds are already well capable of guiding such a person already if they wish.

It's possible.
Rome was supposedly documentary in nature.

I’d make monkey babies with her

Edit: four hours since I posted this, and I’ve gotten “horrifying” and “tmi” but no disagree

Found this video in my feed, as a bit of a departure from the granularity of comparing two turds, explaining a perspective of what the global economy of the present currently looks like. I like this duder, he stays pretty impartial and packs most of his videos with sound research as far as I've seen.

At this point the Democrats only option is a strategic retreat, ceding territory they can no longer hold culturally, damn the consequences or chances of getting that ground back in their lifetime and praying that in 50-100 years, everyone's memories will have faded long enough for them to try again. They can't win, their only options are losing everything and retreating and saving what they can

Marxist disguised as political activists disguised as politicians have taken over the left. The people at the top created the situation that lead to this. They're not true believers. Just neolibs and neocons. They see the marxists as useful idiots. At this point, they're in it to win it or lose big. They already showed their hand too many times. They're not gonna retreat. The only path forward is kicking their shit in so much they have to recoup in bed. Or get buried six feet under. Because Marxists will try again and again to reach their goals. They won't stop because they lost once.

I got a few minutes in before I couldn't watch anymore due to the hypnotically-induced rise in heart rate.
Based on those 2 minutes it looks like he's blaming economic nationalism for the world wars, at least that's what the intro is implicitly leading to.

"there were world wars when we had domestic industry so we should let the communist chinese take over everything n shiet, just let them continue the same cheating they've been doing for the past 40 years"

Do correct me if I'm wrong, but it feels like more propaganda from the international looter class sucking America dry.

Also, to no surprise, MSNBC really wants to turn into a popular version of CNN:



It will be pretty funny if word ever gets out that this network just called black Americans who voted for Trump in 2020 as “Confederates”.

Never change, Fake News.

Harris is very left wing.

Globalism and economic cripling are explicit goals and were called out as ways to prevent future world wars.

The reality seems to be it just makes a overly complicated and fragile system that makes sure no can rise again and bring forth dark ages once it falls and this time there wont be a place where civilization and knowledge was kept alive.

At this rate you will see better preserved and unaltered western classics in a Russian library than an America one.

I legitimately hate this man enough that if I could I'd sell him directly to whichever one of our enemies I think would torture him the longest.

God I can't wait until he dies because I'm going to give his grave the GG Allin treatment.

Arlington Cemetery Confederate Memorial removal is back on, Judge Alston who was nominated by Trump has reversed his earlier decision which delayed it being taken down. The symbolism of a monument meant to represent reconciliation when it was put up being removed in polarizing times is not lost on me.

Federal judge rules removal of a Confederate statue in Arlington Cemetery may proceed​

The removal of the Confederate Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia may proceed, a federal judge ruled Tuesday, after finding groups who tried to halt it failed to prove that keeping the monument was in the public’s best interest.

US District Judge Ronnie D. Alston granted a temporary restraining order Monday, barring the memorial’s removal after a request for a preliminary injunction by the groups Defend Arlington and Save Southern Heritage Florida.

The groups claimed the Defense Department’s plan to remove the memorial violated the National Environmental Policy Act, and that the department had failed to take care of the grave sites surrounding the memorial site during the removal process.

But in an order filed Tuesday, Alston said the plaintiffs did “not establish that a preliminary injunction is in the public interest.”

“Plaintiffs’ complaints regarding the removal efforts being likely to damage the gravesites are misinformed or misleading,” the order said.

The statue’s removal is part of a wider action to remove Confederate symbols from US military facilities set forth in a Department of Defense directive issued last October. Arlington National Cemetery had anticipated the monument would be completely removed by Friday, spokesperson Kerry Meeker previously told CNN.

The bronze statue – designed by American sculptor Moses Jacob Ezekiel and unveiled in 1914 – depicts a woman atop a 32-foot-tall pedestal. The figure is wearing a crown adorned with olive leaves, holding a laurel wreath, a plow stock and a pruning hook, according to the cemetery. A Biblical inscription at her feet reads, “They have beat their swords into plough-shares and their spears into pruning hooks.”

Other figures on the monument include a Black woman depicted as a “Mammy,” carrying an infant of a White officer, and a Black man following his owner to war, according to the cemetery.

Though the monument’s bronze elements were to be removed, its granite base and foundation were to stay at the site to avoid disturbing surrounding graves, cemetery officials had said.

According to the cemetery’s website, Confederate remains weren’t allowed to be buried at Arlington until 1900, 35 years after the Civil War ended.

“By 1902, 262 Confederate bodies were interred in a specially designated section, Section 16,” the cemetery said. The total is now more than 400, according to the cemetery website.

Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin has voiced his disappointment in the removal plans, according to his spokesperson Macaulay Porter. The governor planned to relocate it to the New Market Battlefield State Historical Park in the Shenandoah Valley, Porter said.

I had thought MSNBC WAS the popular version of CNN. It's slightly less biased than CNN, YMMV. Red is not an appealing color for regular news coverage. It feels like somebody is always warning you of SOMETHING.

No, as the things he is talking about, Antony being attacked by a mob and defended by legionaries from the 13th never happened, and was completely invented by the show.
