RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Correct. Never get too freaked out or confident because of one poll within the margin of error. 001
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Not that this is wrong, there ought to be a law, but what you propose would require a Constitutional Amendment. 111
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Glorious Revolution looks pretty tame compared to this, though Britain has its moments on thr road to Constitutional Monarchy. 100
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Not that you are wrong, but Gasoline price signs are pretty effective Democratic advertising now. 110
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Thank you for these articles. I finally know why the Collector of the Port of New York was such a big deal. Talk about legalized graft, a percentage of the Port's revenue going to the Collector. And, one has to assume, that other corrupt revenue streams were in play for the Collector. 010

RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Perhaps someone should have told Robert Kraft about Streisand effect, because alot more people have heard about this because he banned it than if he'd done nothing. The oligarchs really hate us regulat folks having opinions. 3280

RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Perhaps he was worse at all the other sports they tried. Or, his team hates him. If his next video involves a trip to a grocery store to gather vegetables for a credited, we'll know it's the latter, though bot coukd be true. 010

RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Moulton has been stick in 2006 for a long time. Throwing the trans community under the bus never gains any votes, transphobes always want more, and convinces Democratic voters you can't be trusted. 020
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Its been decades since I saw the movie, and it was the first thing I thought of when I read the post. Hopkins conveys his characters need both to show and conceal his emotional inner life. 010
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Do you think the movie does it justice? Hopkins is great -- conveys in small ways the suppressed emotion that seems to be the price of being in service to a man who is justvas suppressed and naively, or perhaps not so naively, throws in his lot with the Nazis. 010
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 30/08/2026The rivalry is really between the States. They did fight a war over Toledo and the UP. 000
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 29/08/2026Also, he sabotages himself. He's the type of not fully formed, negative charisma, and highly needy personality that is dominant in Trump's minions now. VP is the best path to the Presidency, but the GOP has gone full "rats in a sack fighting," so the Trump succession will be very ugly. 000
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Safest prediction in the world is that it will be close. If its not, you can always say things broke at the end too late to adjust the prediction. 000
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Well, at least she's never been elected and not likely to be. 010
RetiredFed @rp198.bsky.social · 28/08/2026I think Commitee and Conference Reports might be a better place for charts or diagrams or pictures, if it comes to that. Charts and diagrams are a helpful way of explaing laws, but they should not be the law. 000
