@ScottJenningsKY Please don’t sink this low. I don't believe you believe what you’re saying. And so then, why would you say it?

Did a leading Democrat really suggest that Sec. of War Pete Hegseth should be EXECUTED? Sadly, yes. That’s what it has come to in Washington.

@fallskjermjeger i had issue w his framing the issue in terms of ‘favorite’ x or y.
English
@tlvl60 @RogerSeverino_ Objectively, he was explaining the core motivations at the heart of the issue.

I testified at this hearing and was literally sitting next to her during this exchange. The video doesn’t fully capture how chilling her answers were.
Congressman Brandon Gill@RepBrandonGill
Today I asked an abortion advocate what her favorite method of abortion is.

@butler_rf If you’ve been through a lot, I’m sorry. You’re incorrectly guessing my assumptions tho. best to you and yours, fellow midwesterner. truly. this isn’t the best way venue to talk about this anyway. i’m sorry you doubt my sincerity. my views, as w yours, are based on experience.
English
@butler_rf to me, it is easy to tell others what to do without having to walk in their shoes, and i would hope every person who does the telling would thrmselvrs themselves offer to care for the child, many of whom end up in foster care.
English
@butler_rf also, maybe you’ve seen this but sharing just in case. mr. severino and many others were effective imho.

No Billy Joel. No Neil Young or Joni Mitchell, who are Americans even if they were born in Canada-- in this anti-immigration nightmare, that should be clear. And even if I am not a huge fan, Neil Diamond and Neil Sedaka should be here. Dolly Parton, if only for Jolene!

@NormOrnstein todd rundgren too? (hello, it’s me just came across my IG feed. ♥️)
English
@butler_rf i’m not justifying myself. and would have thousands, perhaps millions, of the abortions you’re talking about been prevented by easily accessible birth control? A sincere question.
English
@tlvl60 @eileen_hoy69517 @RogerSeverino_ There may be sad and real stories, but they are a tiny fraction of the convenience based abortions or those done because negligence. People like you have been responsible for MILLIONS of abortions and very few were real hardship cases. Go justify yourself some other way.
English
@RogerSeverino_ thank you. you too. i have hope. :) hope for solutions, consensus, understanding, and less demonizing.
English
@tlvl60 I’m glad you at least got a good, if temporary, impression from my Breaking the Deadlock appearance. It’s a great show. Take care.
English
@butler_rf @eileen_hoy69517 @RogerSeverino_ and it’s not compromise; it’s finding a way to reduce the thing you profess to hate, and to care about other types of suffering.
English
@butler_rf @eileen_hoy69517 @RogerSeverino_ maybe provide birth control so an abortion isn’t necessary?? maybe care about the situation of the mother, her family, the suffering of a child whose illness means they’ll die possibly in pain soon after birth?? for many of us, it’s not the black and white issue it is for you.
English
@eileen_hoy69517 @RogerSeverino_ we’re never going to get any on this issue with people who think like you
English
@RogerSeverino_ If you really wanted to reduce the number of abortions, you would find a way to do that by working with those who believe in family planning in birth control, but I guess that’s not your aim.
English
@RogerSeverino_ on breaking the deadlock, you seemed reasonable, thoughtful. Unfortunately, it appears you won’t tolerate that someone may not share the same views on the subject as you do. i found the framing of the questions disgusting.
English
It is likely Secret Service had info about the shooter ahead of time & let him get within 2 floors of Trump. Immediately after Trump & his boot lickers started in on why the ballroom is needed & taxpayers should pay for it. Why? So he can steal money raised & rob the Treasury.
English
@baseballcrank The other issue here is it is Mike McFaul. Russia could be holding a victory parade in Warsaw and he'd be tweeting how Ukraine has Putin "right where they want him" and "Putin needs to sue for peace, pay $10 trillion in reparations, and leave Ukrainian territory."
English
This sort of thing is useful analysis only if it is predictively accurate, but I see no sign that Putin is about to do so. Which suggests that *he* does not believe he holds worse cards than his adversaries.
Michael McFaul@McFaul
Putin has no cards . After 4+ years of trying to advance, his occupying army in Ukraine has been stopped. Time for Putin to sue for peace.
