He is intent on infecting the government with his Christian Nationalist world view and is one of the most influential people pulling the strings of the Trump regime today.

    Evil, villain, sure girl, keep advocating for violence against political opponents, all the 500 total commenters here seem enthralled by it.

    Russell bought allows hos prejudices to blight his policies. Immigration has met our workforce needs since the inception of this as a country. American women can no longer be coerced into motherhood. That's the right's biggest problem. Make it easier for families, or women, to raise children, and you will get children.

    Listening to them talk about a "democrat shutdown" and how it'll make them have to lay off government employees is ridiculous. Everyone can see with their lying eyes that this is something they have been doing and were going to continue doing regardless. It's like a rapist telling you to stop fighting it because they'll rape you if you don't

    Thank you Leeja ❤. Empathy really confuses these people. They call it woke, radical, crazy. People with Antisocial Personality Disorder should have that many peoples lives in their hands. 🤬 The boring psychopaths would really f#ck me up…. If they weren’t so (what you said) f’n boring. The APA are our only hope. It’s only their job. 🤬 Have you ever watched Bandy X. Lee? She’s amazing.

    Read “Rules for Rulers”, folks. Power serves citizens more effectively the more widely it’s distributed. One tyrant? Terrible. A handful of oligarchs? Still very bad. Elected representatives easily influenced by money? Pretty bad. A ranked-choice system that broadens representation? Much better. Directly voting on issues ourselves through secure encryption? Better still. …. And we haven’t forgotten about the Epstein files.

    I’ve never understood ivermectin. There was only one study IIRC that claimed positive results, and nearly all the rest claimed negative results.

    Also, I checked on what ivermectin is recommended for attacking, and it’s arthropods and nematodes, not viruses. Arthropods like fly grubs, lice, fish lice, mites, ticks, … It’s been used to treat many kinds of vertebrate patients, from horses to salmon, but no invertebrate ones, like honeybees.

    Ivermectin is easy to overdose on. What’s safe for a horse is too much for us, because horses weigh much more than we do.

    I just want to say that there's been a heavy-handed propaganda campaign over the last decade to redefine and weaponize the term "woke." Anyone who uses the term today doesn't know their ass from their elbow, and people just blurt it out at things they don't like. Not a single person who blurts out the term even knows what it means. At least not its original and proper definition. So it's unimaginably laughable that some big-brain right-wing think tank head honcho writes a proposal of any kind with the word "Woke" in its title and expects anyone to take them seriously.

    Wanna play the Blame Game?
    : McConnell stole at least two Supreme Court justices and blocked Trump's second impeachment on BS logic to leave it to the judiciary after Biden assumed office.
    : Biden said his would be a one-term bridge-presidency; but stayed on beyond his capacity; and his advisors went along with it. Even after the debate, when Biden's deterioration became undeniable, he tried to cling to the nomination, and Harris went along with it.
    : He appointed Merrick Garland as AG because he'd missed out on the Supreme Court and Biden wanted to embarrass the GOP. So as not to appear partisan, Garland delayed appointing a Special Prosecutor until it was too late to be effective.
    : Because of the Citizens United ruling, Musk, all by himself, was allowed to contribute $288,000,000 for Trump's 2024 campaign.
    : Trump disavowed even having knowledge of Project 2025, but said he'd heard negative things about it. Then came the election: 77M Trump; 75M Harris; and 89M no-shows. On Jan 20th, the Trump regime began their dismantling of the US government, along with massive lay-offs, as detailed in Project 2025.
    : The Republican Congress did nothing but tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. The Dems were virtually powerless – except to force a shutdown, which may be just what the Billionaires wanted all along – to cripple us to force a state of emergency.

    Now our mission must be to defeat the fascists that we allowed to assume power.

    It will not be easy or simple to accomplish – but it is imperative that we succeed

    — THANKFULLY, Mr. VOUGHT's BANALITY . . . will defeat him. The christer apparatchik Vought is a true product of the Wikipedia mentality of "eliminating Liberal bias" in Reality: make up white-wing rubbish and publish white-wing rubbish as fact. Read all about it.

    Russell Vought and David Ellison have that common gripe that causes them to take it out on the world in that they were born with lips that look like buttholes.

    The Westminster system doesn't have a president.
    What you do get is the majority leader forms government and the minority leader usually runs the opposition.
    Then there is the second house that acts as a counterbalance
    And before anyone says anything about being ruled by a monarch, the last time a king tried to rule without parliament he got his head cut off.
