I have a pretty decent memory of grade school and I remember being about as young as 8-9 they started talking about abortion, what it was, and why it was important women's healthcare. We had entire debates about abortion by 10-11. These girls were pozzed right from the start.

The more I hear about other people's school experiences the more I realize how based my school was. I don't remember exactly why we were talking about it but it was at some point in elementary school when abortion came up. I didn't even know what sex was, it wasn't a part of this conversation, but pregnancy somehow resulting in a baby is pretty obvious even if you don't know how it happens. So the teacher said you're either pro-life or pro-abortion, and then she explained what happens to the fetus during an abortion. One of the girls said "Well, I don't want that to happen, but the mom should have a choice," and the teacher's response was just a blunt "You're pro-abortion then." She didn't let anyone wiggle out of it and I don't remember anyone being able to say that they were pro-abortion

Has a squirrel ever done anything to you to create this animosity you feel towards them? I propose to you: any disease a squirrel could spread, a rat could equally carry. Would you agree? Yet I assume your department does not share the same animosity with Brooklyn rats that you do with up-state squirrels, do you? Yet they are both rodents, are they not? And except for the tail they even rather look alike, don't they?

Rats are pretty cute too, tbh, at least ones raised like these squirrels would have been. They're super affectionate and snuggly, they're great

I mean they are going to try to cheat but with the amount of people being watchdogs it does not seem to be doing so well for them.

I wasn't clear, so I apologize.
I don't mean the cheating won't be attempted, just that their cope articles and the despair in general shows they don't expect that to work.

Often times, Trump's superpower is he sees free money left on the table and just takes it.

Any other politician could have made a public statement about this. Decrying the government overreach if they were on the right, or vowing to get the full story about why this tragedy had to happen if they were on the left. They could then segue into a political speech of their own choosing, making whatever points they want and getting sound bytes out, while endearing themselves to people upset about the situation.

But only Trump actually did it.


For context: The New York State Environmental Board decided a popular youtube channel about a rescued squirrel that had spawned an animal sanctuary and the like needed to be killed because just absolutely because. So they raided the guy's house without a warrant, took his pet squirrel, and killed it before he could fight back in court. There's talk on X that the state government wants the Animal Sanctuary's land or somesuch and this was their way of cutting it off from their primary source of funding, but I don't know about that.

So here's an interesting set of facts for you: NYSEB is probably the single most-hated entity in the entirety of NY. To achieve that goal is impressive in and of itself, but how it's gotten there is particularly dark and fucked-up. Essentially, NYSEB has a history of locking on to damn near any animal that's tame - rescue animals, like Robert and Peanut were, former Zoo or Circus animals, even critters caught by live trappers, black marketed, and then later saved - and showing up with full force to fucking murder it.

Their claim is that the animals becoming tame is a threat to their survival chances, which ignores that the above cases are all things like animals raised among people in the first place, trafficked into the illicit pet trade and then freed after they'd become dependent, or rescue animals, which obviously this should not be a fucking concern for. They are, without exception, one of the most power-tripping organization in a state already infamous for government power trips. Back in 1998, my mom rescued a Blue Jay that was winged by a cat (it was still very much a fledgling), and we raised it until its flight feathers grew in, and released it into the woods, where it flew off. Two days later, he decided he had had quite enough of that, and he came back to us, so we made a giant cage for him and he stayed with us for many years. Before this, we had contacted several wildlife sanctuaries, and while none of them would take the little guy, the universal constant was them telling us to not let NYSEB find out, or they'd try to murder him.

It's not just shit like that, either. These fuckers will hunt you the fuck down for years in some cases, trying to find out who did it and prosecute them with the full force of NYC, even in places well outside their fucking jurisdiction. I've heard stories of them going after people for fucking years because they tore down a seagull nest or shot one of those fucking shit-hawks after it attacked one of their pets and had the NYSEB show up with like nine trucks.

Even if you disagree with Trump every one needs to vote for him since he has a pretty good chance of appointing another SC (or more) in his next term. Thomas and Alito are both in their 70s and might choose retirement if they know they have a successor they like and Sotomayer is a 68 diabetic hispanic.

The amount of fucking screaming from dems if Trump gets to appoint six supreme court justices would be worth it alone. Christ, I can see the meltdowns now.

Bless the based commenter who provided this timestamp:

Where Fetterman admits the "immigration reform" bill in congress would've legalized two million a year across the border.

Also a literal fucking stroke victim can go on JRE for two hours but Kamala can't is the main thing mentioned in the top comments so far.

I'm guessing more PETA crickets since poor Peanut n' friend were extinguished at the hands of the NY government.

You are correct. Not a peep about this on their Twitter, just their usual asinine engagement bait: "don't eat turkeys on Thanksgiving," "swap out beef for tofu," "Mike Tyson is a loser for raising pigeons," yadda fucking yadda. Not really surprised, though, since they're such huge fans of arbitrarily "euthanizing" pets.
