I live in the 34th largest town in the US. Our motto: "We're not having that shit. Go somewhere else."

Give me a week there, and I can almost read the Irish. Well enough that I can slowly pick out a paragraph of it. Speak it? No, nay never. Was once in an (American) Irish pub. Big sign on the wall in Gaelige. My friend asked me to translate it. I did, slowly. The waitress, overhearing, was astounded. "No one can read that. You must be Irish!" Well, no, but I can fake reading it.

I said this at the time: if the Democrats had just calmed tf down in 2020 and let Trump be a normal two-termer like all previous presidents going back to 1992, then he'd have been done in 2024 and Pence would have lost badly in the election that year. 2024-32 is the Amy Klobuchar Era (or whatever) in this scenario. Instead, by forcing the '20 election down a politically unnatural, excessively "tryhard" path (mail-ins, riots, etc), the Democrats manufactured what may wind up being a 16-year or even 20-year Trump Era, if Vance has success.

By the time he leaves office, Trump will have been a dominant force in US political life for just under 5% of the nation’s history

@RandyGoat Nothing much; just a successful, respected negotiator for the Abraham Accords--something no one thought possible. Now he's no John Kerry, rapidly deploying geriatric folksingers to soothe relations, but who is?

@keira_con I'm not there now and I wasn't then. But from a distance, it looks and feels like the relationship between the Irish public and the Royal Irish Constabulary in the years before the war for independence. They may be Irishmen, but they're working for the enemy.

I think the present government has destroyed the relationship between the public and the Garda Síochána for good, Having a late lunch in a resturant and four members of the guards walked in three males and a woman. Suddenly the place went quiet, they were seated, Other customers and staff looking at them. Their order was taken and shortly after the owner or manager went and asked them very politely to leave the premises as they were not welcome, that their presence was upsetting other customers and would they inform their colleagues they are not welcome either, As they walked out the door tail between their legs people clapped and cheered it was surreal.

@Luv_Xcuses Messing things up? Killing people for no reason? Starting wars of choice? Loosing wars of choice? Ponzi schemes? Cover-ups? Trafficking children? Electing pedophiles? Faking trips to the moon? Americans are simply better at a lot of things. It's hard to pinpoint just one.

You're not wrong. I travel to a town just across the border with Mexico often. Plenty of restaurants, they serve cheeseburgers. But I get requests, often: Please bring me an American bacon cheeseburger. They don't mean a fast food burger. They mean a restaurant-style burger with lots of melted cheese, onion, lettuce, tomato.

@applechews_ I've been in that world. People become commodities. What can I get from that person? Affection can develop, but that affection does not translate outside the world. And once that person is no longer useful, they become a memory. Perhaps a fond one, but a memory.

Years ago, I lost a family member to commercial sex work. She contracted HIV and couldn’t accept it. Within two years, it progressed to AIDS. I nursed her for three weeks before she died. I had her phone throughout and it kept buzzing 🧵

Me also. Hennepin County is a place where leftists get away with stuff. I was surprised the sheriff's office effected arrests without, say, a grand jury indictment. The sheriff is a DEI person. But she also wants to be reelected. Whereas I think Moriarity has already said she's not running.

Paige has been arrested, by sheriff's deputies. But she's still in the Hennepin county attorney system, which attorney is Soros creature Mary Moriarity. However, the assault took place on federal property. And Justice Department Civil Rights head Harmeet Dhillon is aware and wrote "on it." Monday should be interesting.

@officer_Lew @Savsays She's going to be rewarded for this. She might (unlikely but it's possible) get arrested and get a misdemeanor where she'll do 100 hours of community service and she'll be rewarded with a well-paid job in a left-wing NGO.

@JLBnEspi @jonbrooks @mc_223 Living in God's Waiting Room, Mesa, it's surprising how many retirees have 3 houses; one in Mesa, one in a cooler summer place like Payson, and one up north in the midwest. Plus, a lot have a large RV.

In the city center of Leeds, England, a citizen who was subjected to verbal harassment by a large group while walking on the road with his wife, single-handedly neutralized 9 people who advanced on him; footage of those moments quickly rose to the top of the global news agenda.

@submitfights Ƴou don't have a pregnant woman by your side and jump into a fight that could be de-escalated without being in the fight. It looked like he so much wanted to have that fight. Who jumps into a fight while with a pregnant woman behind ememy lines. 😮‍💨 Sickening to watch.

I want a better grill. In Japan it costs about 50,000 yen, or about $320. Is it about the same price in America?

That sounds like a lot of fun. I didn't know such days existed. I was driving past the walk-in exit to the Phoenix Open. There's a weed store right there. The whole parking lot was vendor tents from all the growing/packaging/edibles companies. Not that any of the tourney guests needed more mood alteration!

@SGTWipper1Each @RandyGoat Vets are usually less likely to have such problems. We've known that for a while. VA, service clubs and Vet centers have a lot of help. Back in Minnesota we had stand downs every year to connect vets to services. There was a LOT of help, eager help, at these events.
