I don't think we have a choice. We need sucker punches. We need steel chairs to the backs of heads. Professional wrestling has a LOT to answer for (especially Vince McMahon), but the crap that goes on there might have to play out in Washington. Minimum, I want the Democratic Party response to start with the speaker burying her face in her hands, muttering "Jesus fucking Christ" under her breath.

By the way . . . that loony lady the GOP brought out to respond to Biden's SOTU last year . . . is she still in office?

Joe Biden is a way better man than I could ever be. If I was told that MTG had come to MY State of the Union in full MAGA regalia, I would've had her intercepted and barred from the Capitol. If Democrats attending the SOTU bring in people that have been directly hurt by the current administration, the odds are good that they'll never make it into the chamber. That's how little I think of Trump and his cartel.

If we want to break it down to war - 1928ers were in Korea, 1945ers went to Vietnam.  I may be wrong but I think Gen X may be the first generation that didn't see many of their cohorts drafted and sent off to fight.

And USAID’s acting assistant administrator for global health has been put on leave for trying to do his job and documenting what is happening -- he wrote a memo stating that, despite a promise of waivers by Marco Rubio, the administration has failed to protect programs that deliver lifesaving assistance, which will "no doubt result in preventable death, destabilization, and threats to national security on a massive scale.” CBS News

On the flip side, one of the crytpo bros with a civil fraud case pending against him by the SEC had that case halted after he bought $75 million of World Liberty Tokens (75% of the revenue goes to the Trump family).  CNN

Agreed. We hear all the time that the Democrats are too timid and too polite, so now's the time to show they can take the gloves off and fight back. When you've got poeple out there doing Nazi salutes and siding with dictators, the time to be polite is over. 

Like I've said, it's so frustrating 'cause it feels like the Democrats can't seem to win either way with some people out there (speaking in general). If they don't fight back, they're seen as weak, if they do, they're being too pushy and rude and going too far. 

Meanwhile the GOP can just trample around like a bull in a china shop and that's fine, that's just the GOP for ya, that's how they are. They get celebrated for it and get careers out of it. 

But yeah, at this point, I'm done playing nice. We need to fight back and we need to fight back hard. And we need to do it in a way that gets the public at large on our side.

Au contraire. RFK Jr.'s Media guy is Del Bigtree, a big name in the antivax community for several years... he has a podcast called High Wire, spouting such lies and misinformation that he was kicked off of other platforms. Unfortunately, he is fundded by  a a billionnaire whose name i forget.  Bigtree touts his minimal  experience as a producer on the Dr Phil show,  so nuff said.  Other than that, pre anti vax, Bigtree was just a two bit unemployed actor, playwright, in NY. 

RJK Jr.  is definitely wacky enough for that crowd who do not care about the truth.

The Ukrainian president has dressed for battle in solidarity with his troops since Russia’s 2022 invasion but Trump questioned his attire even before rebuking him about gratitude.

On Sunday, Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry posted a series of photos on Instagram, labeled “UKRAINIANS HAVE THEIR SUITS.”

“Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians changed their smart office attire for military uniforms to protect their homes and families. For others, daily outfits became a symbol of a lifetime mission, sacrifice and saving lives,” the post read. “Amid war, Ukrainian suits may look different, but they are all worn with the ultimate dignity.”

The photos showed Ukrainian troops in full gear, a doctor in scrubs covered in blood after a hospital bombing, a fighter pilot, rescue workers carrying a civilian out of a bombed apartment, a combat medic with a first aid kit, firefighters and energy workers at a plant that had just been bombed by Russia. The last photo shows a man and a woman in Ukrainian-designed clothes at a fashion show. The man, a double amputee with two prosthetic legs, holds hands with a woman whose outfit shows off her prosthetic leg as well.

Many thousands of Ukrainians have lost limbs in the war.

Melaniya Podolyak, whose partner, fighter pilot Andrii “Juice” Pilshchikov, was killed in 2023 in a Soviet-era MiG-29 while waiting for the United States to send F-16 jets, posted a photo of a woman holding a sign that reads: “Will Russia stop killing Ukrainians if we all wear suits?"

Ukrainian comedian Anton Tymoshenko posted a photo of Vice President JD Vance, his pants hiked halfway up his calves at the recent CPAC conference, with the caption: “And these guys are talking about suits.”

Radical action is needed. It will probably never happen, though.

Here's Jon Stewart going over Friday's fiasco. I finally got to see right wing media's reaction . . . and they did not flinch in painting Zelenskyy as the villain. Also, way too many attempts to draw a parallel to Jon Cena's "heel-turn." First of all, when is wrestling newsworthy? Secondly, we all know Trump is the bad guy. Cena has done more "Make a Wish" requests than anyone. Trump would only do that if a dying child's greatest wish was to set a homeless man on fire.

I posted upthread a while back that the silence had more to it than being primaried.  Then I heard a democratic lawmaker hint that his republican friends were saying something like this behind closed doors - as in intimidation, threats, etc.  And now we have this headline.  I wish all of them being threatened would stand up with a sign tonight.  It would be harder to accomplish when it is all out in the open.  Of course there are risks to that too.

This is just anecdotal but someone shared a FB post by someone who owns an independent contact delivery company that delivers packages for Amazon. He said they usually are told how many deliveries there will be three days out.  When they arrive there is sometimes a small difference of more or less packages. Yesterday their deliveries were 17% less than expected. Three days from Friday. The day people weren't supposed to buy anything.

Saw some rightwing pundit on a local talk show today talking up the positives of companies wanting employees to put in 60 hour work weeks and changing the retirement age to 70.  One of those occasions where you want to reach through the TV screen and shake someone!  Not the rightwing pundit, who expects better from them? But the interviewer who did not push back and did not make any of the points I would have wanted them to make.

Like, just as one example, 60 hours at a desk in front of a computer screen would be bad enough but do they really think anyone working at a hard, physical possibly out door job should be working 12 hour days on a regular basis?   And should that same person still be doing that job at 70??

[Ohiopirate02]

I'll be honest and say that I don't think the people who came up with this protest truly thought the whole thing through. I get wanting to hurt retailers for how they have caved to Trump, but a one-day no-buy is not it. For a protest like this to work, it needs to be a week minimum. You also have to look at a calendar to see which week would be feasible for the vast majority of people and would hurt the retailers the most. The absolute worst time for people to not buy anything is from the last day of a month to the 3rd of the next month. This is when people who only get paid monthly get paid, and when people who receive government assistance get paid. Those assistance checks barely cover the necessities. The goal is to hurt retailers not hurt poor people. A week long protest of Walmart, Amazon, Target, etc. from the 16th-22nd of a month would have a greater impact than a one-day on the final day of the month.

I have no idea what impact this will have but here in Canada we're being asked to not buy American as much as we possibly can.  And we are being strongly urged not to vacation in the US for the foreseeable future.  I know it's a drop in the bucket but not one single person I know is heading down South this year and several friends are in the process of selling their vacation homes in Florida.

So these 60 hr weeks are people going to be paid for 60 hrs?  Because I have hard time believing in the country I live in where employers look at labor as an expensive line item on their budget is going to want to pay employees more.

I do think a more targeted (no pun intended) approach would work better.  I could do without Walmart.  Rarely go to Target and rarely buy from Amazon. Blanket economic boycotts hurt small businesses.  And Friday probably wasn't a good idea. For a lot of people that is payday.

Yeah, that Google executive was talking about a person working for 60 hours a week but only getting paid for 40 hours. And it is a way for them to get the same "productivity" out of few workers and save the company the salary and benefits package for what would be the "extra" employees.

Anger over Vance 'random country' peacekeeping remark

Quote

UK opposition politicians accused JD Vance of disrespecting British forces after he said a US stake in Ukraine's economy was a "better security guarantee than 20,000 troops from some random country that hasn't fought a war in 30 or 40 years".

The UK and France have said they would be willing to put troops on the ground in Ukraine as part of a peace deal.

Vance has since insisted he did not "even mention the UK or France", adding that both had "fought bravely alongside the US over the last 20 years, and beyond".

However, he did not specify which country or countries he was referring to.

The thing with people like Musk and Trump is they never admit anything they are connected to is a failure.  If something fails it's not their fault. It's always someone else's fault.  I feel like Trump in addition to being indebted to Musk for reasons also knows when things go south and they will, he can blame Musk. And his base will believe it.

Did anyone else here ever read The Hockey Sweater by Roch Carrier?  It's about a little French Canadian boy whose mother gets him a Toronto Maple Leafs hockey sweater instead of a Canadiens one. 

As a former fan who got a #4 Boston hockey sweater as a Christmas gift one year, there is a line in it that I've changed up since I found out that Orr is a Trumper:

“I asked God to send me, right away, a hundred million moths that would eat up my Toronto Maple Leafs Sweater Boston Bruins Sweater.”
