The Real timschochet

@Jon_mx you do realize that most of the anger against Democrats right now stems from the fact that they’re not standing up to fockers like you, right?

They won’t, he focked them over. They should have known better but I feel bad for them anyhow.

Because they’re right: Climate change, Covid, transgender, vaccines- conservatives shun science continually. It’s really sad and scary.

Loving this thread. I’m in Calistoga, beautiful little town in Napa Valley. Just saw this sign in a store window: “In This House We Believe: Black Lives Matter Women’s Rights are Human Rights No Person is Illegal Science Is Real Love is Love Kindness Is Everything” So good. Encapsulates my thinking. A thousand Trumps couldn’t defeat us.

Cool. You can apologize to this girl- or at least you could if she didn’t have brain cancer: https://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/amp/shows/top-stories/blog/rcna196295

I am not for open borders. I am for generally open immigration. And I continue to dispute your main point: Biden was not the cause for the rush of people to our border, nor will Trump be the cure. This is an ongoing issue with much deeper causes and remedies than we are willing to address.

I get it. I can appreciate their talent. But the guy’s voice just ruins it for me. Can’t help that.

Yes but I won’t waste my time. I’ve posted numerous articles on this subject. Go back and read them. Or go to the website for the CATO institute; they’re excellent on this topic.

We don’t know. They claim not. That’s what due process is about.

Do you think the Tea Party movement in 2009 was a waste of time?

They’re all gone.

I already did. In that group of Venezuelans there are apparently several who aren’t members of any gang. They haven’t been given the opportunity to prove this in a court of law yet. And your boss is trying to avoid giving them one. Why is that?

Well yeah. Can’t be helped because Republicans are all cowards.

The Smiths are awful. Not because they’re bad musicians or their songs are bad- it’s because I can’t get past the lead singer’s whiny delivery. Like fingernails on a chalkboard for me.

There is something that can be done. If it continues then we the people need to vote in large Democratic majorities in the next election, impeach and remove Trump, impeach and remove JD Vance, and install Hakeem Jeffries as President.

That stat is of cases appealed so I have no idea what you’re going on about.

I don’t believe in severely limiting immigration. If you do then I want you defeated.

But even so Korematsu was a terrible decision. I don’t think it would get done today. The internment of Japanese-Americans was mostly done by liberals and Democrats: liberal members of the Supreme Court, FDR, Earl Warren. Many conservatives were opposed, including Herbert Hoover, J Edgar Hoover, Thomas Dewey, etc. The ACLU, supported mostly by conservatives back then, fought the good fight and lost. This is a cautionary tale. Authoritarianism is not ideological. Liberals are just as prone to it as conservatives, perhaps more so since liberals tend to favor larger government.

About 7% of all rulings get reversed on appeal. In terms of the Supreme Court, it’s less than 2%. So no judges aren’t always right. But they’re USUALLY right. And when Trump gets slapped down on over a dozen times in a single month, that’s how you know he’s an unlawful clown. And that’s how we know in this forum that YOU are a clown for continually supporting his moves.

Nope things change. Laws need to be modified. But the core principles remain the same. We are a nation of immigrants, the shining city on the hill, the refuge of the hungry, the tired, the poor. If we ever lose that then we lose our national identity.

Three Imgainary Boys, Jumping Someone Else’s Train. Great stuff .

“judge slaps down Trump” Seems to be a pattern. Will Trump’s supporters ever realize what a corrupt law breaking clown he is?

The courts disagree.

That’s because you want to exclude whole groups of people from coming to this country, and you don’t want to admit that such an attitude is inherently bigoted. So you need to dismiss any arguments to the contrary. I get it. But you’re wrong, Mark is wrong, anyone who holds this bigoted view is wrong, Since I don’t think you guys are really bigots, I’m confident that someday you’ll realize the flaws in your thinking. In the meantime the ACLU will keep slapping down your boss.
