So the bill passed, are we back or is it over?

Depends.
If Vance commences total Parliamentarian death? Trump is going to try and primary Thune come midterms. Same goes if it fails before the 4th. Passes as is? Tons of pissed off gun owners either joining Trump primarying people or just saying home. Thune steps up and removes the karen? Levels of SO BACK that shouldn't even be possible.

Is he going to go on another drug bender and call Trump a pedophile rapist again?

At this point if we nuked Britain and turned into cinder what would we lose as a species?

Britain really working over time to be the first European caliphate. It's fascinating how much they are consistently punished for voting WRONG on Brexit. A big point was reducing migration. So what do they powers that be do? Increase it.

World War II was a hard-fought victory, and unfortunately it killed a large portion of Britain's strong men (in physical strength and in strength of character). It broke the nation; only the weak and infirm remained and what little strength came home from the war wasn't enough to preserve Britain's old stubbornness and pride.

I'm convinced Europe as a whole is a pathetic pool of faggots due to this. The genetic material just isn't there for the most part.

He also got 200k people, apparently, to chant "Death, Death to the IDF" because the bbc refused to broadcast some other group's act.

I would normally say based. but I'd rather live under jews than mudslime sand niggers. And i don't like the jews.

edit: I'd probably say I hate the jews. Just because you hate a certain group doesn't mean you can go about being shitheads to them without provocation.

If I have to pick beyween sandniggers and kikes, I prefer the kikes. The sandniggers will kill you for not praising the pedophile propeth. Kiles you beat be telling them to fuck off.

Two did. Lev Eshkol and Begin.

Yes. It's a mess. There's maybe 10 factions iirc

USNS Harvey Milk has been renamed to USNS Oscar V. Peterson. Now 100% less gay!

This is also antisemitic. Will Orange Man allow it? Milk wasn't just a faggot, he was a Jew faggot. Original last name was probably Milkstein, Milkowitz, or Milkovitzky. Every time I see that nauseating Milk homo's name it puts me off dairy products for a week.

Also, relevant crosspost to recent troon-on-ICE violence:

Off-Topic Post in thread 'True Crime thread, Transgender edition'

Jun 28, 2025

The latest inductee into the True Crime tranny edition is a creature named Christopher Hudson who currently calls himself Julie Mikela Winters. Evidently high on Democrat rhetoric regarding the unacceptability of enforcing immigration law, he attacked an ICE facility in Portland with a machete on Tuesday. It did not go well for him. Language alert:

Postmillennial reports:

The incident occurred during the ongoing Antifa occupation at the ICE facility located at 4310 SW Macadam...

The only instance of Jewish suicide attacks I know of were Sicarii attacks on Romans. Modern suicide bombings started with Hezbollah

Gideon vs. Mideonites?

Drop it off at the Tel Aviv bunker.

You know it's brave of him to show himself partying with the Israelis! Everyone knows his allegiances should belong to the ones that would throw him off of the roof! Queers for Palestine are really slacking, and should really do better. ESPECIALLY during Pride Month. Shame, shame!

It is inconvenient to own a car, because cars are inherently inconvenient. They're expensive, they're money pits, they break, you need to find a place to park them, you need to worry about every other asshole on the road.

Just get a civic and if it does break, just replace it. Costs like 200 bucks

Then they win a different way, which is to force you off the net for gathering purposes. Everyone should instead learn Linux and opt for private LAN chains. You then have to know the IP address to access the servers. Don’t go off the grid, build a new one.

All they have to do is declare your network an unlawful assembly and everyone connected will be marked for death or indefinite imprisonment without trial, just like Jan 6.

It violates the first amendment. Easy.

The sacrament of the confession isn’t for the government to barge into.

The law would be self defeating on top of going against the seperation of church and state.

But the ineffective point I think is the more important part. What they want to do is require that clergy report and turn in perpetrators of crimes if they learn of them through Catholic Confession.

It sounds smart until you think for 2 seconds and realize that if the clergy start just turning people in they're going to just stop saying anything in confessionals like that. So you might get a handful of convictions when it's first implemented but in the long run people would just learn to not say anything to their clergy. making it a useless provision that does nothing.

On the flip side the members of the clergy at current can speak to people who confess these crimes and try to encourage them to seek help or even turn themselves in. Which will have a debatable level of impact but if it has even a little it's better than "a few arrests and then the criminals stop speaking to clergy altogether"

Well, it looks like the the big, beautiful bill is going to pass.

I didn't think it was gonna happen, but kudos to Trump and his crew, getting the right pressure to get it done.

My issue is that it increases spending, and the AI stuff in that bill worries me.

I would say, I hope it gets fixed in the future, but knowing where Congress is and all the tech guys with all that money they have. I doubt that it's going to happen

They defanged the bill and took out most of everything that Trump wanted.

Firearm deregulation? GONE.
No tax on tips? NEUTERED.
No healthcare for illegals? GONE.
No tranny healthcare? GONE.

Basically what’s left is a trillion dollar pentagon budget, because all the MIC faggots need to get paid, more debt, more money printer go BRRRRR, and few of the cuts that would finance the tax cuts.

And if you took another 2 seconds to think you'd realize that victims use these confessionals too, not just perpetrators. Technically clergymen are obligated to avoid reporting abuse regardless of who is at fault in the confessed act.

So, yes, the retards who violate children and then admit that fact to their local Catholic church will likely avoid ever doing that. I would argue that demographic is insignificant compared to the amount of people who go to confessionals seeking comfort as victims of abuse.

and the same fact would remain that the clergy could advise them to seek the proper course of action and to go to the authorities. If they are unwilling to do so and just wanting someone to talk to by confiding it to clergy, then breaking that confidentiality by reporting it will have the same chilling effect which is "they will just stop talking to clergy about this"

Breaking confidentiality that is supposed to come with confession only encourages people to tell less. And removes the clergymen's ability to try and help victims or advise perpetrators to turn themselves in/seek help.

This law isn't going to save the kids the way you think it will and almost every government overreach in terms of established freedoms (in this case the fact that government has no place in matters of the church) comes under the guise of "save the kids" as it is an easy point of emotional leverage while evidence that it would be effective in ever doing that is nothing but speculative and there is reason to believe it could be harmful as well.

 

[Jet Fuel Johnny]

And if you took another 2 seconds to think you'd realize that victims use these confessionals too, not just perpetrators.

Meaning that the abusers will no longer allow the child to go to confession.

It's a dumb law that's there for Brownie points. They'd be better off demanding that Imams turn in sex criminals too. As soon as you see only Catholic and nothing else you know it is littler more than additional attacks against the Catholic Church.

So, uh... Do you think victims of child abuse just never open up to therapists because therapists are obligated by law to report suspected sex crimes against kids?

Because your argument could very easily be reframed to also advocate for therapists to have the level of confidentiality of Catholic confession. Hell you could reframe it to apply to any level of confession. Despite that, from my understanding, people report child sex crimes or admit to being victims of child sex crimes to therapists every single fucking day.

Anything else I can strike down?

I'll defend it by simply saying it is indefensible to people for whom a higher power doesn't exist.

Simple. There's no reconciling irreconcilable values. Either you value freedom of religion, or you don't, and if you don't, the onus is on you to explain why you believe overriding a core and incredibly holy aspect of a faith for 'the greater good' is of more value to you personally, than the sanctity of religious institutions is to society.

Good luck doing that without sounding like you have a ten-gallon fedora.

 

[Cynicaller]

Either you value freedom of religion

By this logic you should be okay with basically every core aspect of any religion on this planet existing without impediment from the state.

You aren't. So you're a hypocrite. Moving on.
