Ragin' Moderate

As communities gather this weekend, @AstroVicGlover reflects on the shared spaceship we all call home: Earth.

@JJapman @HouseGOP I think there’s a kernel of valid debate here, my guy. But you really ruin it by being rude to people. You can call it “tone policing” or whatever, but maybe you should get off twitter and call all the people who you’ve hurt by being like this. Just my two cents. Good day!

@RaginModerate @HouseGOP So you lose the argument because you said stupid shit and then you try to tone police? Why don’t you just educate yourself before you say moronic things? In 2018, US growth was far faster than any other G7 country. It wasn’t even close. Yet, somehow, they would recover faster? 😞

EXPECTATIONS = CRUSHED! 💪 Last month, we added 178,000 NEW JOBS for AMERICAN WORKERS👷‍♂️🇺🇸 AMERICA FIRST!

@JJapman @HouseGOP Clearly you aren’t going to be convinced that your initial assumption is wrong. Fair enough. But I have to ask: Do you speak like this to your spouse and coworkers? I find it sadly fascinating.

@RaginModerate @HouseGOP From shutdown, the obvious place to rebuild is the biggest economy with the highest spenders. That’s the safest bet every time. What blows my mind is that you seem to think that France, etc would have advantages. Just pure unbridled ignorance. Like a 5 year old.

@JJapman @HouseGOP I find it wild that your reasoning is so broken and yet you’re this smug. Is your argument that since the USA has the largest economy, it would also automatically have the largest GDP growth %? That’s…just…not…true.

@RaginModerate @HouseGOP And the largest economy is still going to have built advantages. It’s like explaining to a 5 year old….

@JJapman @HouseGOP All of those are by percentage, not absolute amounts. 🙄

@RaginModerate @HouseGOP So....yes, it was bigger so the growth was going to be larger. Wow, what they teach people today.........

@JJapman @HouseGOP My goodness. You really don’t have to keep digging.

@RaginModerate @HouseGOP Is our economy maybe....larger than theirs by chance? Is that a likely possibility? You know, the likely answer to your garbage?

@mattvanswol I’d guess that ~80% of current bluegrass players and fans are Democrats- which you would definitely know if you actually listened to it instead of just had fake nostalgia for it.😆

Somewhere along the way we decided this wasn't worth saving. I want my country back.

@JJapman @HouseGOP The entire globe shut down for COVID, and yet the US still outpaced almost every other rich country. We had the highest GDP growth, and the biggest drops in inflation & unemployment of any G7 country.

@RaginModerate @HouseGOP You realize that the entire economy was shut down for Covid right? So....starting the economy back up would make the job growth look unrealistically high, right? You do realize basic facts, right?!

@RepublicanStudy @HouseGOP 0% chance a hairdresser was taking in (and claiming) so much in tips that they’re saving $25k in taxes. Tips are taxed at 7.65% normally, meaning a person would have had to be making $326,000 in TIPS ALONE.

🚨 No Tax on Tips is putting real money back in the pockets of hardworking Americans. Salon owner Kristin Chorne in Bismarck, ND is seeing it firsthand. Her employees are now taking home $11,000 to $25,000 MORE every single year. Republicans promised working families relief and delivered exactly that. 💰

@LR_Cadyz @HouseGOP I think you may be missing something. Even after all that, Biden’s private sector numbers are STILL better than Trump’s! You probably should leave this convo, or just divert to “bUt tRuMp’S a fiGhTeR” or something because you aren’t going to win this on the numbers.

@RaginModerate @HouseGOP Really?

@seanhannity Job growth AVERAGED 186k in Biden’s last year, and yall are acting like 178k is something to brag about.

U.S. Job Growth Far Exceeds Forecasts, Pointing to Economic Strength lizpeek.com/news/march-hir…

@LR_Cadyz @HouseGOP I cannot believe you would just type that without bothering to fact check first.

@RaginModerate @HouseGOP Biden's "job creations " were all government jobs, and cartel human trafficking jobs. Even those had to be adjusted after every release. Try again.

@WhiteHouse @NCGOP This month is the very best Trump 2.0 has been able to do- and it still would have been Biden’s 6th worst! 😭😭😭😭

SMASHING ECONOMISTS' EXPECTATIONS!

@binni_2025 @DefiyantlyFree “Allegiance” has a specific legal meaning.

@RaginModerate @DefiyantlyFree Except the kids parent doesn’t hold allegiance to the sovereign country if they aren’t citizens here so how is the kid going to hold allegiance exactly?

“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof.” If the founders supported birthright citizenship they would have written it as follows: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States.” It’s really that simple.

@FHithrow @IfindRetards I think you are thinking of the word “allegiance” in how we use it colloquially (“loyalty/devotion/etc”). But there is a legal definition as well, and it’s relevant here.

@RaginModerate @IfindRetards Nah bro your coping that is NOT what she said at all. That was word salad that she got lost in. Complete and utter misuse of the word allegiance.

Retarded quote of the day 🏅

@FHithrow @IfindRetards I don’t understand why you don’t understand this. Isn’t it clear? She’s saying you that if someone comes to the US, they are subject to our laws (including the 14th Amendment)

So when I saw this, I said to myself, 'Hey, that can't be the full quote, she can't possibly be that stupid.' WELL, here’s the full quote: 'If I steal someone’s wallet in Japan, the Japanese authorities can arrest me and prosecute me. It’s allegiance, meaning can they control you as a matter of law?' Jackson posited. 'So there’s this relationship based on—even though I’m a temporary traveler… I’m still locally owing allegiance in that sense.' What in the holy fuck is that word salad? She tries so hard to sound intelligent and only makes herself look even dumber.

@DefiyantlyFree What if….now I am still working out the kinks on this one….what if Birthright Citizenship is clearly delineated in the constitution, and the “right thing” is to notice that?

SCOTUS won’t change birthright citizenship. As much as it pains me to say this because it’s the wrong decision but Amy Coney Barrett and Roberts will never do the right thing on a case like this.

@TheLaurenChen Democrats do a lot of crazy shit, but they also clean up your messes.

When Republicans control Congress: Fight a lot with each other. Complain about Democrats. When Democrats control Congress: Pass 7,544 bills. Establish 57 new agencies. Grant automatic citizenship to everyone in Honduras. New law says ONLY illegal aliens can vote.
