Huh. Another reason some Republicans were called “Radical” back in the day?

@bradjmurray * @someatholl Another poacher hunter. This image make me think of “stone-cold killer finds a legal excuse to keep operating” as an NPC motivator, as opposed to the more heroic one I posted on G+ lo these many suns ago.

“We’re gonna build a wall and the Army is going to pay for it” is a weird 2020 pitch. Like “trades wars are easy to win. Just borrow money to pay farmers to lose their markets permanently.” But it beats “we will have so much debt and racism you will be tired of debt and racism.”

«Once, Mr. Iljeseni caught a man acting nervously at the entrance to a crowded market in the city of Maiduguri. He yelled for civilians to flee. Then he told soldiers nearby: “If you see this man doing anything, shoot him to death or stone him to death.”

People ran from the marketplace. The bomb was on a timer, strapped to the jittery man pacing alone near the gate, surrounded from a distance. They waited. The bomb exploded, killing only the man wearing it.

Mr. Iljeseni cried for hours and for two weeks he couldn’t hear, he says: “I saw the masses of people they intended to kill. You can’t help but think about people losing their loved ones.”»

«The wildfires & hurricanes & heat waves & extreme weather will continue to get worse so long as we’re “led” by politicians whose answer is to do nothing but deride libs and their reusable straws.

The GOP is profiting off of the destruction of humanity. Remember that in 2020.»

Interesting replies. Lots of boomers popping up to say they’re not with Trump.

Beautiful opinion piece.

A recession is only the beginning; a bad response can make it worse. Maybe we can soften the blow by not re-electing the current resident.

Also, I ❤ a candidate who uses the web to post detailed positions.

«In a recent survey of nearly 300 business economists, three-quarters expect a recession by the end of 2021 — with more than half thinking it’ll come by the end of 2020.»
