    I am officially running for POTUS as a Democrat in 2024

    I didn't make any bets. There's one bet I really wanted to make a couple of weeks ago, but couldn't get money online to take it: UConn at 60-1 to win the NCAA Championship. They've since moved to like 10-1 and are arguably the best college basketball team in the country lol.

    Kyrsten Sinema goes independent, scrambles Senate

    Well, I don't agree with the carried interest loophole. I do agree with not raising the marginal tax rates. I mean, if I had it my way we would fund the entire government with a combination of progressive wealth and sales taxes, no income taxes of any type.

    March 17, 2023: Canada will help you to commit suicide if you are bummed out

    Why do you assume it's temporary? Obviously 18 is very young and I don't think they should be advertising this on NHL commercial breaks, but there is such a thing as chronic depression. I would like to see people make it into their 30's and give adulthood a shot first. However, they should be...

    March 17, 2023: Canada will help you to commit suicide if you are bummed out

    People generally don't kill themselves just because their sports team loses.

    Nobody should be forced to live and suffer.

    'Child abuse': Eric Trump clobbered for admitting he forces his kids to recite the Pledge

    Well, I was taught to look both ways before crossing the street and to brush my teeth twice a day. However, I'm pretty sure I never once saw my parents do the Pledge. Mercor and Fortune Teller, do you guys recite the Pledge everyday (including weekends) or know anybody who does?

    Putin plays Biden like a piano, swaps terrorist for weed smoker. lol

    Well, according to Bolton, Trump had the opportunity to do so for Bout.

    Putin plays Biden like a piano, swaps terrorist for weed smoker. lol

    Whelan was being detained for 12 years. If Whelan is a spy he was paid to go to Russia and is doing our government's work. It's people like him who could have been responsible for the intelligence about invading Ukraine. In my opinion, he should have priority over any civilian who goes to Russia...

    Putin plays Biden like a piano, swaps terrorist for weed smoker. lol

    Trump and his ilk are clearly bringing racism into this. They've been dehumanizing Griner and calling her anti-American rather than sticking with the legal facts. That said, Biden had over a year in office to bring Whelan home before the war started and Griner was detained. I don't know why...

    'Child abuse': Eric Trump clobbered for admitting he forces his kids to recite the Pledge

    I actually think it's time to get rid of the stupid pledge. One, it's very cult-like. We are forcing kids, many of whom don't even understand what they're saying, to blindly follow some doctrine. Because of what? If you want a country full of critical thinkers who can reason and work through...

    Diplomacy brings top professional basketball player home; US politician's companies commit fraud.

    Well…I went to 5 provinces in August (ON, QC, NB, PE, and NS). One thing I will say is that America looks like a landfill compared to Canada. In Canada there isn’t garbage everywhere like there is in every city in the States. I went to the major cities in those provinces: Toronto, Montreal...

    'Child abuse': Eric Trump clobbered for admitting he forces his kids to recite the Pledge

    I don't know if he's trying to troll or thinks this is something socially conservative Americans do. It just sounds like a satirical SNL skit. I hope they make one of this.

    'Child abuse': Eric Trump clobbered for admitting he forces his kids to recite the Pledge

    “I wake up at 4:30 in the morning every single morning. I say the Pledge of Allegiance to my five-year-old and my three-year-old. In fact, they say them now, um, and they do so beautifully. Then I say the Lord’s Prayer and I say two other family prayers that we have, and then I make them say...

    Kyrsten Sinema goes independent, scrambles Senate

    I still think she's pretty corrupt. I wish there were more non-corrupt senators who weren't so ideologically on one end of the spectrum or the other. There are basically no non-corrupt moderates in Congress.

    Kyrsten Sinema goes independent, scrambles Senate

    I kind of like Sinema, because she was pretty steadfast about not raising the top tax rate back to 39.6%. I actually emailed her thanking her for being independent. In my opinion 37% is already unfairly high. There's also the 2.35% Medicare tax to make the real top rate 39.35%. The super wealthy...

    Diplomacy brings top professional basketball player home; US politician's companies commit fraud.

    Considering that Trump could never let a good dog whistle go undone, my gut tells me he would have made the trade after Griner went to prison just to show to his base that they got the white dude he didn't care about before instead of that man-voiced black lesbian.

    Diplomacy brings top professional basketball player home; US politician's companies commit fraud.

    People shouldn't, because honestly, the ask might be too much for us to justify getting them out. People are at risk if they visit any country with a non-democratic government. Especially if they are hostile to the US.

    Kyrsten Sinema goes independent, scrambles Senate

    And you think a progressive would do better than Manchin in WV where Trump was +42 in 2016 and +39 in 2020? Manchin outperformed the Democratic POTUS nominees by 45 and 42 points.

    Kyrsten Sinema goes independent, scrambles Senate

    Yes, he tried to present himself as a moderate and away from Pelosi/Schumer who don't sell well in OH. Keep in mind, Trump's stance on trade was way more aligned with progressives than the GOP before he became the nominee. I think free trade being removed from the GOP's platform has helped...
