@johnkonrad Now do the US. It's not much better outside of your bubble.

Why did we let Finland into NATO?
Any nation who hates us more than Turkey should go fend for themselves.

1/ This is what it looks like on Europe-wide Gallup polls. Greenland is absolutely the thing that has destroyed approval of Trump, and the US, in Europe. Note that Denmark, formerly one of the most US countries in Europe, is now the most anti-US.

@ScottPresler Republicans are as bad if not worse for national debt. No, they will make sure people are paying. No they won't. Don't do illegal things and they can't. Same x2.
English
If democrats ever gain power again, they will try to bankrupt us.
They will weaponize the IRS against us.
They will pass laws to take away our gun rights.
They will use red flag laws & turn the courts against us.
They will try to imprison us.

@Bossy_Leah Rotisserie chickens are loss leaders and cheaper ffs. Especially considering you can use the carcass to make broth for the next meal which you can't do with other pre-cut raw chicken.
English
No it’s not. It enforces laziness and raises prices.
Cooking four chicken breasts in the oven takes 20 minutes. Jesus.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders@SarahHuckabee
Hot take: putting hot rotisserie chicken on food stamps is common sense. Arkansas took items like candy and soft drinks off SNAP. Now let’s put healthy, affordable options like hot rotisserie chicken on.

@ronsterd89 I want it legal but I also want this rule applied to all public spaces. I have no issue with weed but if you smell like skunk & get too close I will literally make a b-line for the nearest bathroom or I'll throw-up all over whoever is closest to me. Other strong smells too.
English
@bluegoosetx @ronsterd89 uh what? Everyone can tell the difference between those.
English
I think that subjective, what does marijuanna smell like? How good is your sense of smell? Can you tell the difference between a toker and a tobacco user who is also alcoholic. Have you smelled the breath of a person with a rotting tooth? I could go on…….moreover, does anybody think waffle house waitresses are capable of making such comparisons, because I do not.
English
@lady_valor_07 They did. When Clinton was president and in the public eye. In 2026 he's not the president anymore and she was never part of her father's inner circle in the white house. This isn't rocket science. Stop being disingenuous.
English
@Richmaster @DougWahl1 ....
They're usually cheaper than uncooked chickens because they're often loss leaders at many stores. Wtf, man.
English
@DougWahl1 SNAP recipients should not be able to by any precooked food at all, if you don't have a full time job you have all the time in the world to cook meals for your family from scratch!
English
SHOULD SNAP RECIPIENTS BE ABLE TO BUY ROTISSERIE CHICKEN
This is an actual debate happening right now. A group of lawmakers has introduced legislation that would allow recipients to purchase hot rotisserie chickens with their benefits. Currently they are only able to buy cooked rotisserie chickens once they have been cooled down.
Your Thoughts?

@RelaxedPop @PeterSweden7 No. All they're thinking about are demo/culture. Thing is, every culture disappears and yet humanity survives. That's really all that matters. Well, that and treating each other well while we're here.
English
@PeterSweden7 Explain to me why this is a problem. I've never understood it. I worry about the demographic / cultural aspects, but not the number of humans in general. In my feeble mind, an earth with 3B or 4B people, achieved without massive deaths, is desirable.
Am I wrong?
English
It's not climate change.
The falling birth rates is actually the biggest problem that humanity faces right now.
How do we solve this and encourage people to have more children?
Give me your best ideas 👇
English
@TxJollyRoger @PeterSweden7 @AZgramsMarie Is it this? Or do kids not feel welcome enough to stay in their hometown? Or will the economy in their hometown not give them the jobs they need? Both? Its not individualism for most. Its economics and / or lack of effort or being pushed away by the family.
English
Western civilization has push individualism to a detrimental extreme, where everyone feels they need to move out, move away, and "make it on their own."
This has seriously damaged the kinship altruism bonds necessary for society, which not only adds to the mental health crisis but low birth rates.
What are we replacing these high value altruism trust support system with? Institutional surrogates and superficial associations.
English
@PeterSweden7 Reset the entire economy. Living needs to be made affordable. Chop the economic heads off of the top 1%. Make medical care affordable including dental care. Make it so that either one parent can not work or childcare is affordable. Housing price adjustment & so much more.

@RoxanneCor37526 @BasedMikeLee There's only ONE year since 67 where the Nat'l debt didn't increase. The year before Bush Jr. took office. Nice try.
English
@BasedMikeLee It all started in 2008 the year of the most corrupt president in American history.
English
This bloated national debt was brought to you by the Zombie Filibuster
It’s time to slay the zombie
Wall Street Mav@WallStreetMav
$39.1 trillion in US govt national debt $5.5 trillion revenue 2026 $7.5 trillion spending 2026 $2 trillion budget deficit $1.3 trillion interest payments in 2026 on the $39 trillion in debt. Neither party will fix it, they are just looting the system now as it fails. They know it can't be fixed.

@BasedMikeLee Cool so the answer to this is ....
*checks tally sheet*
More wars?

@Selene_Mariposa @catturd2 a nickname stolen by an auburn fan that was overheard being said to a Nebraska fan that somehow ended up on a internet thread in the early 2000's directed at LSU for ... reasons .... being used in reference to a fatal shooting?
Idiotic and insensitive.
English
Here is the sad truth about gerrymandering in the United States.
It's going to get worse before it gets better.
Democrats in Virginia and California have forced our hand.
Republicans need to gerrymander every single Democrat out the Deep South.
We have to fight to win.
English
@KevinLikeSeven @cnnbrk Born and raised in BTR. It absolutely is not. Moderate/Purple at best but most days its straight up blue. Having a one off Republican mayor who was elected the same election as the last Trump election when there was also a huge red wave globally doesn't mean BTR is red.

At least 10 people were injured after an apparent argument led to a shooting at the Mall of Louisiana in Baton Rouge, police said. cnn.it/4vMIyC3

Sid is already unliked back at home. This is NOT going to help.

At least 10 people have been hurt in a shooting at the Mall of Louisiana after police say two groups got into an argument. Baton Rouge Mayor-President Sid Edwards said shootings like this can't always be prevented. Full story: bit.ly/4uaZW26 #louisiana #batonrouge

@farrar_joe93452 @WBRZ Islands? Do a search for per capita rates & you're going to see a bunch of smaller towns/cities alongside the ones you listed. Marksville, Opelousas, Bogalusa, Jennings, Bossier all have pretty bad crime rates. This is not an isolated problem.
English
@WBRZ East Baton Rouge, Orleans, Caddo, Ouachita and Rapides Parishes are Louisiana crime islands. We can thank weak DA'S and weak judges. ⚜️

Police were seen transporting people to safety during the mass-shooting incident at the Mall of Louisiana.

Baton Rouge shootout….
2 groups of people got into an argument at the food court and started shooting at each other.

@chriswithans Considering my dad after voting for Trump 3x is finally starting to see him for what he is? Yes. I didn't think he'd ever come around and he has. If Trump has lost my conservative, South Louisiana Dad, there are serious problems ahead for him.
English
Does this seriously make sense to you? Do you seriously, legitimately believe that the current president is actually at -17 net approval with the entire Registered Voter Electorate of the United States of America when Virginia just had a highly consequential election that was 3 points to the right of 2024? Really?

@JonBowzerBauman @JimHansonDC Wasn't there a new one last year too? So there are 4 end gerrymandering bills that have been presented to congress by democrats?
English
@JimHansonDC House Democrats passed the Freedom to Vote Act 3 times, in 2019, ‘21 & ‘23. It outlawed gerrymandering.
No Republicans voted for it.
It died in the Senate because of the filibuster.
No Republicans supported it.
English
Yes I support eliminating gerrymandering nationwide.
It is wrong,
What most people fail to grasp as they are purposely misinformed by the Left & media.
This would actually net seats for Republicans as Dems have more stolen districts.
