I think it says it in the constitution that congress should "hope" for compliance and "send letters" when they dont get it. No lawsuits, no impeachments.

It also says in our laws that we cant send weapons to countries engaged in genocide, and that federal "agents" cant barge into your home without a warrant, that we are all are entitled to due process and representation, citizen or not, and that we are all protected from unreasonable search and seizure. I hope those merit a few lines of complain in his letter for the abusers reading pleasure.

Isnt the christian bible pretty antisemitic? Have they ever bothered to read their bible? Jesus talked trash about the Jewish authorities of the time pretty much nonstop. Thats not even going into the events that led to his death. If politicians want to keep servicing Israels bribes I recommend that they DONT advocate that anyone read the bible. They should probably ban it.

Similarly for Jewish holy books, Talmud passage Gittin 56a goes into details about how Jesus the Nazarene should boil in excrement for all time for mocking the Jewish sages. Thatd be another inconvenient thing to come up in school discussions, wouldnt it? We should probably ban that book too.

Heck with it, at that point maybe we just keep religion out of schools entirely, how about that. Extremist idea, I know.

Between "no child left behind", epstein island involving pretty much the entire monied elite and political class, and cabncelling health care and food aid for kids, I dont know what "for the kids" even means anymore in the US.

Celebrating nvidias big investment in Israel didnt help either. Daily killing of innocents continues while he ships pallets of money over. He's not unique in tech CEOs being arseholes, but he's definitely another trash human being. The world would instantly be a better place without most tech CEOs.

If my 3090 or mobo dies, for instance, I can send it to a repairperson and have a good chance of saving it.

While throwing out working things is terrible, the cost of servicing a motherboard outpaces the cost of replacing it. They can possibly still charge you 200 dollars and tell you the board cant be fixed, right? I think the right balance is that you observe the warranty period, try to troubleshoot it yourself --and then call it a day, unless you have a 400+ dollar motherboard.

Love it. The fascists/religious nuts need to learn some respect for others ideas and stop trying to bully everyone.

I no longer beleive its possible for this system to fix itself with slow internal incremental change. Do you?

I've been yelling this for years. The scary thing for me is that increasingly "dems + lean dem" are no longer the majority and repubs have better numbers. And strong dem registration numbers shrink every year. Dems refuse to acknowledge or act on this fact, and its harder every year to define what "Dem" even stands for anymore. What is the Dem party platform? I used to be sure. Do dems support progressive taxation? No one knows. Now I think the DNC champions whatever viable minimum it can to win an election while sucking off the donors to the maximum extent. If they can win with 51% by allowing the rich to fuck us all over, thats the strategy they will pick-- they arent on our side.

We could at least have them removed from their leadership positions. That could happen today if 10 dems would call for a internal vote on it. Evidently we dont have that many willing to do the right thing. I wonder why $$$$.

Thiel may be worse than even elon.

Theres something a tiny bit pity inducing about that. Or its just a new level of pathetic.

Epstein was pretty obviously mossad but both russia and israel seem to both use the blackmail materials. Interesting how that woks from such a "staunch US ally" as israel is portrayed to be. How are they sharing this stuff?

Side note, I suggest a change to english writing standards whereby loathsome words like "putin" or "israel" become exceptions to capitalization rules and are always lower case. "US" is an exception only because it breaks the writing flow and reads as 'us'.
