Michelle Obama didn’t show up to Jimmy Carter’s funeral. Her spokesperson said she couldn’t attend because she was on an extended vacation. But the real reason was obvious. Because of protocol, she would have been seated next to Trump and there was no way she was going to put up with that.

I agree about nuclear as an essential part of the answer, but the anti-nuclear strand is not the same as the focs on climate, and is in any case receding with more and more in the area accepting the need for nuclear, at least in the medium term; which is why the plans of Bill Gates and others for new-generation, smaller nuclear power plants are so important. Even the Germans (on the whole) recognize that Frau Merkel made a huge mistake in rejecting nuclear power.
One of the big issues I have with accepting the “climate crisis” is that the people pushing it ignore the biggest solution to their crisis “nuclear energy “. If it is such a crisis then nuclear was and is the single biggest arrow we have. But no not one mainstream national democrat politician pushes this. So the entire crisis loses a lot of credibility.
Yeah, it feels as if The Spell has been broken... a calm feeling of relief appears to be the dominant emotion, even among many on the Left. If I may quote Leonard Cohen: hallelujah!
As for all the luigi love: Leftists are now people who both condone and pardon cold blooded killers. Not exactly a good look. But not surprising.
I had Christmas dinner at one of my friend's house. We've been friends for 30 years. He's always been a good Massachusetts liberal. His extended family was there, all New England transplants. I've gotten to know them over the years from holiday gatherings: a couple of lesbians, an uncle that I've watched transition to an aunt over the last 10 years and his/her wife of 30 years (does that make 4 lesbians? kinda confusing), an aged aunt and uncle that are very much hippies, and a smattering of ot…
100% Exactly what I came here to say. What else is murder, besides murder? A mercy killing? A way to make the world a better place? Virtue Signaling of the Third Kind?
At its core, the narrative around this cold-blooded execution is just another variation of Identity Politics. Downtrodden patient vs. corrupt capitalist pig. Whose side are you on? The suffering victim or the fascist oppressor?
The rising generation has been marinating in this ideology for years now. They don't even understand what…
yet there are those who want to get into power and those that have already who see murder as acceptable if they believe it will help them achieve their goals. and if they ever rise to power, then what will you do......when all your legal and non-violent ways to redress grievance are gone.......if it would ever come to that. we dodged a big bullet with Trump getting in, but we were getting very close to having to confront such a sutuation...and at some point, will have to do so again.
