@kyleforalabama So get rid of racism by instituting more racism. That’s the Democrat way.

@DrNeilStone Yes, especially when they didn’t have to. The medical protocols were all wrong, yet they still do them today. Being a doctor is not the same level of respect as it used to be. You follow your orders from big pharma and the medical association and forget about your oath.

The worst part of Covid was that 20 million people died
Lisa Boothe@LisaMarieBoothe
One of the worst parts of COVID was watching Americans surrender their God-given freedoms to bureaucrats who were wrong about everything.

@SenThomTillis You’re a disgrace and this voter is so glad you are leaving at the end of this term.

The careless decision to reduce our force posture in Europe, along with moves by Pete Hegseth and his political henchmen to force out some of our finest general officers is amateur hour at best and deadly at worst.
Hegseth continues to surprise and disrespect our greatest allies and some of our best military professionals with impulsive decisions not grounded in reality or good judgment. If the rumors are true that Hegseth is trying to sideline General Chris Donahue, one of our nation’s finest warfighters, by downgrading U.S. Army Europe-Africa to a 3-star command, he is taking another step down a dangerous path. A step that is not in the best interests of our nation or our servicemembers.
General Donahue has dedicated his entire career to upholding the high standards and warrior ethos that Hegseth claims he is restoring to our ranks. Gen. Donahue has led Soldiers at all levels in Airborne (including Ft. Bragg’s 82nd) and Mechanized units, the 75th Ranger Regiment, and our most prestigious special operation units. He deployed over 20 times in support of Iraqi Freedom, Enduring Freedom, New Dawn, Inherent Resolve, Atlantic Resolve, Freedom’s Sentinel, European Assure, Deter and Reinforce, and in support of the Sudan crisis.
Hegseth would do well to surround himself with more patriots like General Donahue and to get his henchmen, who are not qualified to carry Donahue's bag, out of the Pentagon. Keep your word, Mr. Secretary: choose meritocracy over your mediocre yes-men.

@BamaGator1963 @Handre @grok, how much of a factor was the Swiss militia - every able bodied man would pick up a rifle and fight for his village, and there was no military whose head could be cut off?
English

Switzerland built the world's most prosperous society by doing exactly what every government expert told them not to do: staying neutral, keeping taxes low, and letting markets work.
While the EU suffocates its members with 170,000 pages of regulations, Switzerland maintains bilateral trade agreements that preserve sovereignty. Swiss GDP per capita hits $94,000 versus Germany's $51,000 and France's $45,000. The Swiss franc remains one of the world's strongest currencies because the Swiss National Bank can't print money to fund Brussels bureaucrats. Meanwhile, EU nations surrender monetary policy to unelected technocrats who inflate away savings to finance welfare states.
The regulatory contrast is staggering. Switzerland ranks 4th globally in economic freedom while EU heavyweights like Germany (16th) and France (64th) plummet under Brussels' command-and-control apparatus. Swiss unemployment sits at 2.1% compared to the eurozone's 6.4%. Swiss labor markets remain flexible while EU employment laws make hiring workers feel like adopting teenagers forever.
Brussels promises prosperity through harmonization, but delivers stagnation through standardization. Every EU directive removes another price signal from the market, replacing voluntary exchange with political allocation. Swiss neutrality isn't just about avoiding wars (though that 200-year peace dividend helps). Economic neutrality means staying out of supranational central planning schemes that turn dynamic economies into managed decline.
The EU's answer to Switzerland's success? Punitive measures and threats to cut off market access unless the Swiss submit to Brussels rule. Nothing exposes the coercive nature of the European project quite like watching bureaucrats demand that free people abandon the policies that made them rich.

@ClistonBrown So let’s make the judiciary completely political? Democrats have packed just about every court with activist judges that make political statements instead of constitutional ones. You just want complete power for your side.
English

The judiciary isn’t independent now. Any pretense of independence is long gone.
Dilan Esper@dilanesper
This is obviously demagoguery, but to be clear, packing the Court to 13 Justices would destroy the independent judiciary and make the courts the political tool of whoever won the last electoral trifecta, while sending the rest of US law into chaos.

@SenJohnBarrasso It’s not the ranchers. It’s the slaughter houses that buy the beef and prepare it for consumption. They raise the prices. Do something about them!

@SenatorWarnock Now, a scam artist is the senator of Georgia. How it has progressed.
English

When I was born, Georgia’s Senator was an arch segregationist. Now I sit in that seat.

@InnocentTr4769 @jeremyct Inherited everything? I’m 63 years old and I’m not getting anything in inheritance. I don’t need it. I’ve built up a retirement on my own.

@jeremyct Millennials out here inheriting nothing from people who inherited everything. The generational transfer skipped a generation and went straight to a retirement condo in Florida.

a friend’s parents bought their house in 1993 for $67,000
same house is worth $1,200,000 today
he’s their only son
spent years quietly knowing that house was coming to him someday
they sold it last week
to fund their retirement
he found out over dinner
just sat there
nodded
said “that’s great mom”
went home and did the math
$1,200,000
gone before he ever touched it
boomers didn’t just win the housing market once
they won it twice

There were 3 major Axis powers.
The Soviets get partial credit fighting one of them.
They did essentially nothing to fight Italy or Japan.
The US and British defeated all three.
Soviets: 0.5.
US: 3.
