I seriously want someone to justify the claim that Macklemore's public statement in support of the Palestinians was "hate speech". I didn't hear anything that warranted that label. Is it possible to oppose the Netanyahu government's actions without being called an anti-Semite?

When it's our turn, can we rename Stone Mountain, Georgia to something more appropriate? I'm thinking that "Google and Apple Bootlicker Hill" has a nice ring to it.

Am I the only one who has noticed that ABC is turning into one big commercial for Disney? "News stories" that other networks barely mention or, more usually don't mention at all. A steady stream of lengthy features and shorter segments on Good Morning America. I'm over it.

I have no respect for war hawks who never served - less for politicians who use war to gain favor. "It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, more vengeance, more desolation. War is hell." William Tecumseh Sherman

Montgomery, Alabama Just a portion of the crowd gathered on the Statehouse lawn to support No Kings Day! As much as celebration of one another as a protest against Trump and MAGA.

Iran has brought oil transport to a standstill in the Strait of Hormuz. The Trump administration response is to say that they will insure the ships. If I were a crew member, I don't think I would be comforted by the knowledge that my employer will be reimbursed for their property when I'm killed.

I can't be the only person who suspects that the DOJ release of unredacted Epstein documents and photos was not an accident, but was intended to slow the release of the remaining records and evidence.

Did anyone watch the 60 Minutes piece on ICE in Minneapolis? I quit in disgust when it appeared that it was just a puff piece. Softball questions for ICE "balanced" by the police chief voicing his concerns over demonstrators going too far. The decline of 60 Minutes truly saddens me.

We live in a time when leading an angry, violent mob into the U.S. Capitol is acceptable, but gently mocking an ICE agent is terrorism and grounds for a "justifiable" homicide. How have to return to sanity.

Donald Trump is obviously slipping into the same dementia that claimed his father at his age. Assuming he outlives the Presidency, how long will it be before the Trump-Kushner family shunts him aside to keep him from blowing the spoils of his corruption?

Hegseth claims that he did not order the killing of survivors after the destruction of an alleged drug smuggling boat. Has he ordered an investigation into the incident and prosecution of those responsible? Of course not, because he is lying.

jsnyder000.bsky.social @jsnyder000.bsky.social · 30/11/2025
Secretary Hegseth should be jailed. His order to kill survivors of a ship that had been destroyed by U.S. missiles is in direct contravention of the Geneva Conventions.

Remember when it was only Republicans pushing unsupported conspiracy theories about the Clintons? The emails suggest Trump blew "Bubba". Epstein actually had a friend named Bubba, and elsewhere he says that Trump is way off base for suggesting Clinton was involved. Guess that's no fun though.

This is what you get when you give up your only advantage in a negotiation. Republicans are demanding that the bill extending ACA subsidies must include abortion restrictions. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions to extend Obamacare funds
Democrats say that’s a nonstarter, arguing there are already limits on abortion access. The dispute could torpedo a deal, leading to higher health insurance premiums for millions.

Just trying to make sure that I understand how government ethics work in the Trump era. A mayor can't let Qatar pay for a business trip, but Trump can get a personal gift of a plane and a sweetheart deal for a golf resort from Qatar, in exchange for a foreign military base in the USA. Right?

The Trump regime will fight tooth and nail to keep Trump-Epstein files from the public. When the Democrats take power and release appears imminent, he will have them destroyed. His justification will be that it is "time to put an end to the witch hunt protect innocent". MAGA will believe it.

The last time a Republican administration said they had undisclosed intelligence warranting military strikes, we were pulled into a war in Iraq. Bush said they were harboring terrorists and had weapons of mass destruction. He lied. I suspect that Trump's war on fishing boats will be the same.

Watching the national news, I don't think that Democratic leadership is making it clear that the Republicans refused to negotiate their budget proposal. The Big Beautiful Bill contains no concessions. We know that Johnson and Trump are lying, but many voters don't follow events that closely.

I keep wondering what Charlie Kirk was getting at in the final moments of his life. When asked how many transgender mass shooters there have been: "Too many... Counting or not counting gang violence?". Was he using his last words to pivot to the far right lie that most murders are gang related?

I do not believe that the killing of Charlie Kirk was a good act. I will not mourn his death. I did not know him personally. I feel no more than I would about the passing of any stranger. But I do know that he freely spouted conspiracy theories, lies and hateful propaganda. I will not mourn him.

@cbsnews.com CBS News and its parent company Paramount Global just settled an essentially frivolous lawsuit by Trump. It amounts to a $16M bribe by Paramount in hopes of getting their Skydance merger approved. Avoid CBS News. Business executives run the show. They can't be trusted.

I watched Good Morning America today. Their coverage of No Kings Day was, at best, disappointing. No mention of the poor turnout for Trump's birthday parade, emphasized the Army Anniversary aspect of his expensive ego trip, and overplayed the minimal violence that occurred.
