Biden tried to delay the support. There’s just not much he can do short of locking down the entire government. The president does not hold absolute authority, and if the parliament and secretary of state are being bitches…

He has sufficient authority to curtail aid to Israel. He can also fire the secretary of state. Congress, not Parliament. He’s angry behind the scenes but unwilling to take action, which may have to do with the ongoing election.

… but we shouldn’t act like there aren’t groups of people who might think we all deserve whatever we get, regardless of it affecting them as well.

Either Harris or Trump is going to be president come 2025, so pick the better candidate, or the lesser evil, however you want to look at it. Anyone who casts a protest vote or withholds support because of a single issue, is an idiot and I’m not going to handle them with kid gloves.

I’m not shocked Biden isn’t doing anything, and I’m not shocked Harris isn’t outspoken about it. I’m hopeful she takes action when sworn in. But people need to care about politics everyday, not just once every four years.

What’s the dilemma? Elect a candidate who isn’t great on the issue of Palestine, or the candidate who would be apocalyptic? Hmmm… decisions… decisions.

Additionally, there is nothing Harris can say on Palestine that would benefit her candidacy, either way she loses voters. I’m hopeful that she’ll be better in office, but even if not, I know Trump would be worse.

Have Dems taken your rights to anything away? They’ve expanded rights for same sex couples and healthcare. Under Republicans my rights constantly get reduced. Abortion is the most recent example.

Also, every election is important because the shitty people who want to screw everyone over never take an election cycle off. Sorry if showing up once every two years is too much to ask.

Their unequal treatment of Dem and GOP just proves they are no longer a news organization, just a propaganda machine.

It doesn’t prove that at all, and frankly it’s not true. They are part of a for-profit corporation. Their decisions are based on making money for shareholders, and not about journalism or informing the public. So if upsetting Trump, and his supporters, would cost them money, then they will withhold the information. Profit Über alles!

Here’s what I said:

It literally doesn’t matter. She’s still going to lose all the red states. She’s not swaying any Trump voters with that message, they’ve already decided, for the most part, to vote against their own interest.

I’m obviously talking about the general election currently happening with Trump. 2016 Democratic primary is irrelevant. I’m sorry you’re so confused.

Can you not tell the difference between a primary and general election?

It literally doesn’t matter. She’s still going to lose all the red states. She’s not swaying any Trump voters with that message, they’ve already decided, for the most part, to vote against their own interest.

Anyone who says winning should be a breeze is an absolute idiot. You’re dealing with a cult and an electoral college that skews the race toward the Republicans. She’ll win the popular vote, but that’s all that’s certain.

Kickapoo school district sees 440% higher cost over private school voucher funding, tax increases

Wait, you think that is a more clear headline than this:

Kickapoo school district taxpayers see 440% tax hike over private school funding

Your headline makes it sound like the school district’s costs are 440% higher. Absolute trainwreck.

Yes, I’m on one side, with dictionaries, etymology, and the majority of atheists, and you’re on the other side. I would agree with you but then we’d both be wrong.

Google:

noun: atheism. disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods.

Gnostic - adjective. relating to knowledge, especially esoteric mystical knowledge.

Me:

Theism is belief in a god, atheism is a lack of belief. Atheism is not necessarily a belief that god does not exist.

Gnostic is about knowledge and not belief

Theism is belief in a god, atheism is a lack of belief. Atheism is not necessarily a belief that god does not exist. Gnostic is about knowledge and not belief, which is why you can have an agnostic theist. Agnostic is not a middle ground between theism and atheism, there is no middle ground. I can correct you, but I can’t make you understand it.

Playing devil’s advocate, a person could provide false testimony, contrary to earlier truthful testimony, if they feel guilt over causing this person’s execution. In no way saying that is, or is not, the case here.

Regardless, the death penalty is a profound failure. It is more expensive, innocent people can be executed, and studies show that it provides no deterrent to criminals. There is literally no benefit.

What I said is absolutely correct. If you have a disagreement perhaps you should be more clear and less snarky.

That very well may be part of it, but I was commenting on what I believe to be the very real situation of a plurality of union members supporting Trump.

Is there any chance that a second Trump administration wouldn’t be markedly worse for organized labor? This is a textbook example of not voting for your own interests.

Atheism is the belief that there are no gods and out right rejection in the belief of any gods.

No, not quite. Atheism is not believing in a god, it doesn’t mean you claim there is not a god. A subtle difference, but it is the difference between not believing, and believing not. Also, agnosticism isn’t a middle ground between theism and atheism, there is no middle ground, as it is dichotomous. Agnosticism speaks to knowledge, or what you claim to know. So, a person could be an agnostic atheist, or an agnostic theist.

You see, it’s just a coincidence that he is running against someone who is black and Indian and he just happened to pick the two most racist and stereotypical dishes associated with each.

If guns are good, and more guns mean more safety, why are they shooting at someone just because they have a gun?
