@JoshEakle Comparing Trump to Hitler is not simply a criticism or an observation. It is an exaggerated fabrication, where he further doubled down claiming Trump never condemned Nazis or white supremacists (which he did on multiple occasions and any decent journalist would know this).

There's a fundamental rejection of free expression baked into this.
Jake Tapper and members of the media aren't calling for violence against the President.
Criticism is not incitement.
The idea that anyone critical of a president bears responsibility for political violence reduces the First Amendment to a conditional privilege.
That's the logic of authoritarian regimes. It absolves the perpetrator and collectivizes guilt against the opposition.
It is flatly incompatible with America.

@Caripka @ElizLanders I agree it is distasteful by whoever made it and stupid for Trump to repost it. But a gazillion times worse than what Clinton got caught red-handed doing? He literally cheated on his wife with one of his subordinates, an intern no less, INSIDE the White House. This is a meme. 🤣
English

@ElizLanders One of the things I always hated about Bill Clinton was his "Let's just move on for the sake of the country" every time he got caught redhanded doing something bad. This is a gazillion times worse than that was.

@EndTribalism I agree w/ everything you said with the exception of federal agents leaving Minneapolis. One failure can and should be handled, but that doesn't mean all operations should cease. Both sides need to address the immigration situation honestly but neither seem to be wiling to do so.

Personal opinion on the Minneapolis shooting based on additional footage:
From what has been released so far, it appears federal agents shot Alex Pretti who had already been disarmed.
The situation seems to have escalated after a federal agent shoved a woman far more aggressively than necessary, immediately creating a hostile environment.
Alex Pretti appeared calm initially, but once he was confronted by agents, a physical scuffle began.
During that scuffle, agents realized Pretti had a firearm.
One agent appears to grab the gun and walk off with it, and someone can be heard yelling “gun.”
Almost immediately after that, an agent fired.
In the chaos that followed, the other agents also began shooting, seemingly believing the initial gunshot came from Pretti.
This interpretation is reinforced by footage afterward in which one of the agents is heard asking, “Where is the gun?”
That suggests confusion in the moment about who actually fired.
I do have sympathy for the agents in the sense that this all unfolded extremely fast, but overall this situation appears preventable.
In no way do I think this was a public execution as some have claimed, but a chaotic situation that turned deadly once again in Minneapolis.
I’ve seen some people say he had a loaded gun, so it’s his fault, but that is not true.
We now know Pretti was legally carrying a concealed firearm, and he had the right to do that.
If the weapon had been illegal, that would obviously change the analysis, but that is not what the facts indicate.
I do not see Pretti reach for his gun in the footage available.
After the first shot, some may argue that his movements look suspicious once people backed off, but it seems far more likely he was reacting to being shot rather than attempting to draw a weapon.
Federal agencies involved in deportation operations need to leave Minneapolis for the time being.
While I am broadly open to many aspects of deportation enforcement, what has occurred in Minneapolis has been a failure.
The way this is being handled is putting people’s lives in constant danger, and it needs to stop.
The Renee Good situation had a lot of nuance based on the video footage.
This one doesn’t seem to have as much.
I personally believe an American citizen died who did not need to.
The only evidence that could change my view would be body camera footage or a clear alternate angle showing that Mr. Pretti was attempting to grab his gun or that the first shot came from him.
At this point, that footage does not appear to exist, but will wait and see if anything else comes out.
As always, I’m open to disagreements.

@Vulpescap That's a very simplistic and nonsensical approach to voting. If you wanted to be less disingenuous, maybe try also listing what negative things the "party that doesn't do that" does do. The list is long.

@eurofounder I've seen better troll posts written in crayon by 3 yr olds.

My wife told me yesterday she wants to start an online business
"I will be selling handmade bracelets on Etsy"
I burst out laughing
First of all, I have not heard of a single business founded by a woman that succeeded
Second, my wife doesn't know anything about tax compliance, which is the most critical aspect of starting a company
"Where is your business permit, commercial insurance, VAT registration across the EU?" I asked
"I'll figure it out..." she whispered
"Don't be silly baby, this is not for you" I hugged her
"Why can't you just support me?" she started crying in my arms
"Baby, I am supporting you by protecting you from failure"
This morning I called the tax office and preemptively reported a potential unregistered business at my address
Can't be too careful, my wife is very emotional and sometimes ignores my advice
This is what a strong marriage looks like
Being honest with each other and not enabling delusions

@MagpieMaudGonne Our country literally has sections of cities dedicated to immigrants and their culture (China Town, Korea Town, many others), and we have culture festivals all acros the country celebrating various cultures. WtAf are you talking about "destroying cultures"?

@dark_one4 @Sightline_Media @glenn_tunes That's absolutely not true at all. You know this. Everyone reading your nonsense knows this.

@Sightline_Media @glenn_tunes False. If a woman or man says they were raped then they were

@MarcoFoster_ 100% of illegal immigrants commit crimes. It is a crime to enter the country illegally. If you are legal, we welcome you. Stop lumping all immigrants into the same category. Many legal immigrants are also "hardcore" against those that enter illegally.

@pardonmewithp @tribeofthemango Yeah...don't interrupt his hypocrisy and racist nonsense. He talkin bout them whites. Not all them other races that had slaves. Not even the blacks who had black slaves...including the very first American slave owner.
English

Why is it always “God allowed slavery” and not “white people used their free will to enslave other humans”. Why is that!?
Jedi Knight ™@sirferrell2
Did we ever find out why God allowed slavery?

@FirstDownMediaa Seeing literally no one in the comments agreeing with you is hilarious. Even a Seahawks fan!! 🤣🤣
English

Here we go again. Clearly looks like an interception. Was ruled an interception on the field.
But was once again called the Rams way.
I don’t understand how the NFL refs keep getting away with this!! #Seahawks #SeahawksvsRams
English

@FirstDownMediaa I have no dog in this fight, but that is not a catch. The 2nd camera view clearly shows the ball tip hitting the ground and it moving around uncontrolled after, before regaining posession.

@EiratheIntern If you truly believe God created you and he didn't make a mistake, then why did you "transition" to something else?
English

God did not make a mistake in making me trans.

@Garnet_2203 They are talking about children. Worried about children. And your response is about ATTRACTION!? What does that say about you?
English

Let’s be honest.
The obsession with trans women isn’t about biology or ‘protecting children.’
It’s about men terrified of what attraction might say about them.
When masculinity is this fragile, it looks for a scapegoat.

@GabbyGirl0409 @jarvis_best You aren't the only one. Don't worry. 🤣
English

I don’t like this. Trump is a media product supported by a cult of personality, plus he has allegations of questionable conduct towards women. It is disrespectful to put his name next to Kennedy.

@jarvis_best Read this book and get back to me. JFK was a huge womanizer and predator of women and some very young.

@larryjones I tip at least 20% anyways, except for take-out. Servers deserve to get paid and while I wish the pay structure didn't involve tipping to make that happen, it's simply not how our country works.
