@jwilcox79 When you figure out what "democracy" means, and when you realize America is not a democracy, maybe you'll understand.

My whole adult life the narrative has been that conservatives are “patriots”, and liberals are the “American haters”. But liberals are desperately trying to save US democracy from a conservative movement hellbent on sacrificing it for one man’s ego. It’s exhausting.

@PabloReports Making up "fun facts" must be a liberal past time.

Fun Fact: Mass deportations have created virtually no jobs for American workers. None.

@GissiSim Someone needs Jesus.

I hope Americans understand that Trump pulling out of NATO is the start of the Chinese world order. Europe will run to China real quick and start having heavy trade/diplo relations. There is no doubt in my mind. What does US have then? Cuba and Venezuela? Oh... and Israel.

@TheFungi669 Probably because you, and the rest of your sort, and too dense to understand the difference between illegal aliens and immigrants.

I don’t understand why Trump and JD Vance hate immigrants when they’re both married to immigrants.

@JimmyThomist See, we CAN agree on things!

NATO’s European armies are more than twice the size of the US Army & Marines. Europe has about 1.5x the artillery, AFVs and Tanks, and out produces the US in artillery shells. Europe outnumbers Russia in every ground power category by about 2x. Europe will be fine.

@AthletesInSpace What's funny is I believe you really think this is even remotely comparable.

Okay now do the Second Amendment

@mark_slapinski I'd post the tens of thousands of murdered Iranian protestors that Trump warned the regime not to kill, for starters.

I'm looking for a tidbit of clarity: Why is America at war with Iran?!

@AmirAminiMD Easy, embrace what makes this Christian nation great and ensure things stay this way.

Please tell me: what can I do better to assimilate? To finally become a good migrant? I am a board-certified neurosurgeon, one of only a handful in this country with additional endovascular training (still undergoing), currently with 19 high-impact publications and a doctoral thesis (summa cum laude) focused on the development of an entirely new field in the microsurgical training of young neurosurgeons, patented with the goal of free worldwide accessibility and reproducibility, and in the process of publishing my first book on this topic. I also happen to love whisky and currywurst. And everything about Western literature and art, just as I love and appreciate all these things in every other culture and civilization. Sadly, I am not going to support genocidal scum and child rapists commit endless crimes against humanity, if that’s your idea of assimilation. And I am not going to just watch them burn down the world in real time and shut up about it in order to protect myself and my career. I swore an oath. And I take it very seriously. (I do however apologize for the cheap self-congratulatory introduction for the sake of the argument)

@ProjectLiberal They can go to their parent's country and figure it out.

If you think birthright citizenship is bad, wait until you see what a permanent underclass of stateless American-born children does to this country.

@MuscularEnglish Like you said, fine.

If Trump crashes NATO, fine. NATO dies and we learn to forge alliances in the national interest again. Strategic decisions for us and our people, not endless American backed foreign wars. You're not the only one who can play the great game, Mr President.

@ZachWLambert I respect they can think whatever they want. I do not respect them demanding I play along with their mental illness. It's that simple.

Regardless of your religious beliefs, LGBTQ+ folks deserve to be treated with dignity, equality, and respect. Refusing to do so doesn’t diminish them. It diminishes you.

@LDS_Dems That's because you're a moron who knows absolutely nothing about warfare.

I would rather have the world's weakest military and be a member of NATO Than have the world's strongest military and go it alone. Walking away from NATO would be the single greatest national security failure in our nation's history.

@TomHoefling Do you understand how funding works?

If Trump (illegally) takes the U.S. out of NATO, NATO should offer full membership to Ukraine five minutes later. I mean, Ukraine is, in every practical sense, the bulwark of Europe against the war criminals and barbarians in the Kremlin.

@WarMonitor3 Possibly. Not our problem any longer.

If Washington pulls out of NATO Russia will be emboldened to try operations into the Baltic states mark my words...

@jkimballcook Not even close lol, you people are grasping at straws.

"the 14th amendment doesn't cover children of illegal aliens because there was no such thing as illegal aliens when it was ratified" is the same argument as "the 2nd amendment doesn't cover automatic weapons because they didn't exist then"

@NeilShenvi You mean the people who acted as if they were right, speaking condescendingly to everyone they did not agree with? We call them liberals nowadays.

Jesus reserved his strongest rebukes for the Pharisees, not the prostitutes.

@talk2anuradha I can't imagine living in a country where you pay 50-60% taxes. Sounds even worse than Europe.

> 45 years old > working at Oracle > kids in school > paying home loan every month > wife & parents dependent > gets fired over an email at 6 am Paid 50-60% taxes all his life, yet not a single govt helpline number where he can call to get some help. A ZERO safety net system!

@ExtraT0ast Probably cares about the fact trannies commit school shootings at a higher rate than anyone else.

Oh so now you care about school shootings?

@tiberiusfiles Yes, by mass murdering their citizen protestors. You lot are beyond salvageable.

Iran is doing more to uphold international law than the entire Western Bloc

@MarkWarner Or we could just leave and let NATO do whatever it wants without US funding? Stop being a drama queen.

NATO is the most successful military alliance in history. Congress will not sit by while this president tries to unravel it. Our commitment to NATO is ironclad, and we will use every tool available to defend it.
