Death and destruction is so cool looking.......

Half of the missiles designed to cause death and destruction, the other half are designed to stop those first missiles from accomplishing that task. Personally, I find missiles stopping other missiles from causing death and destruction to be cool.

And assuming your remark was intended sarcastically: While I wouldn't describe pictures about death and destruction as "cool looking", they can potentially be very powerful.

I took it as intended.

There is no stop button.

Starting to think -that- may be the key take away.

Or, as Mr. Fed would have it, "the taint".

His point is just that Khomeini is still free to talk about killing Jews, if he wanted to be not dead and do that... being dead for over 30 years doesn't speak to the FACT that he hasn't been deplatformed by Big Tech.

Pretty shrewd considering Zuckerberg was 5 years old at the time of his death.

So the solution is to let Donald Trump tweet about killing Jews? Because that’s what DeSantis is basically supporting with his argument against censorship.

There's plenty of legitimate criticism to be levied at social media for inconsistency and lack of transparency when it comes to suspending accounts posting inflammatory remarks, but you would hope a governor would know better than to post stuff without checking it first or having his team check his tweets before sending them out. What is he trying to do, become a Republican presidential candidate?

Tucker came so close to saying it out loud.

At the start of this clip, Tucker says, "Pretty much everybody agreed that segregation was the worst thing this country ever did." He pauses before "worst" and is clearly about to say "best", because he knows exactly what he's doing. Watch it. He's begging you to notice.

Democrat to run for Florida Gov.

Good luck to her. FL tops the list of states that are abolishing free and fair elections, though, so it is near certain that no Dem can win there.

Yup. I fully expect that he'll pull the rug out from under this at the last possible moment.

Maybe it is just someone else's turn to step up and take the heat for a while.

Cash?

Every coal town gets a bullet train.

I don't see anything really new there. He is just saying he is open to it which he has indicated in the past. It doesn't really address any of the important factors such as what he'll support scope-wise and what conditions are to be attached to its passage. He is milking the process for all it's worth.

He will extract concessions after Bernie presents the whole megillah. If the opening salvo is $7Tn and Manchin gets it stripped down to $5T, that's still a huge win for everyone.

Big Bird is watching you.

I’d love to think that’s a funny satirical statement about the absurdity of conspiracy theories, but since it’s in America….

I thought it was a joke but my second thought was this being America Im worried it would start some simple minded folk down that path for it.

It certainly started out as a meme, and I've never seen anyone reference it unironically, but then again 50% of any population is of below average intelligence, so... ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯
