Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 25/12/2025Why do we have to reinvent the wheel? Some version of this has been working in other countries for decades. Surely, with "American exceptionalism", we could tweak one of those to fit our needs? Anything has to be better than the system we currently have! 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 08/12/2025The Times was relentless against Joe's issues. Might be nice to see something comparable. 080
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 07/12/2025Let me guess: they were "treated horribly and unfairly" according to many people he trusts.... 050
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 29/11/2025After decades of having "Reefer Madness" thrown at us with their full knowledge that it was not based on anything scientific, it's going to be hard to listen to 'them' again. 041
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 21/08/2025Except the consent forms they signed waiving their constitutional rights, where is the legal authority supporting this crap? Reliance on TX constitution is irrelevant; Federal constitutional law ("Supreme law of the land") supercedes state constitutional law. Am I missing something? 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 20/08/2025What are we doing? Pissing on everything millions of soldiers like my Dad, a WWII disabled vet, laid their lives down to protect. But half of today's voters are happy to sacrifice that because it's so fun to 'own the libs'. A pox on all of you who fit in those shoes. 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 18/07/2025What parent would let their 14 year old participate in THIS? 030
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 17/07/2025ALL must agree that the ONLY way this works is by following a set of rules. That's how naive I am! 🙂 Deep down I know you're right; if the Ds ever had a chance to get even with 'Moscow Mitch' for what he did to Merritt Garland, should we take it? Thanks for the chance for a meaningful discussion!🙂 010
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 17/07/2025How is he NOT under some type of investigation by his local bar association? 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 17/07/2025How is he NOT under investigation by his local bar association? Along with Bondi and others? 010
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Honestly? I'm so tired of us feeling like WE have to play by the rules, while THEY get to do what they want, as they play to win. 😡 Intellectually, you may be right....I'm just sick of being stuck with the double standard. Peace!🙂 110
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Actually, there are a lot more important debates to be having these days ... 020
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Class... something unfamiliar to the current DOJ leadership. 020
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Yeah, because the R's ALWAYS have facts, and never bullshit... BAHAHAHA!!!!! 100
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 15/06/2025Not to worry. I'm sure mandatory attendance, clapping and cheering will soon be in an executive order .... 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 13/06/2025Perhaps instead of making videos and playing 'Action Barbie', the Secretary could start learning who our U.S. Senators are. And their role in our government? 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 09/06/2025Nobody should be giving a shit about Biden at this point. JESUS! 010
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 09/06/2025I said this 3 months ago. But it will go further: he will declare martial law. That is why the Rs in Congress will not resist, because that means no elections...which they know they will lose. 040
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 08/06/2025Do you honestly think any of them give a shit about 'the law' anymore? 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 08/06/2025I've really cut back. I used to get occasional likes from some of the 'big names'. Now even that's stopped. Lots of posts; less interaction with the average guy (notable exceptions: Mark Cuban and George Conway). 010
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 08/06/2025How appropriate. George Orwell's "1984" was published on this day in 1949. 021
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 27/05/2025So. When do those lawyers get sanctioned/disbarred? If we can't hold dear leader responsible, let's go after the enablers who have sold their souls to the devil. 060
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 27/05/2025That reminds me: The 911 Commission faulted our intelligence agencies for 'failing to connect the dots', leading to the disaster. So it makes perfect sense to make it HARDER now to connect those dots. NOT! 001
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 26/05/2025MB--thank you so much for such kind comments. And for your Dad's service as well. My Dad never talked about his time in the Army, except when he was REALLY drunk. Even then, his comments were esoteric in nature. After he died, I obtained his military files--which actually answered many questions.🥰 110
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 26/05/2025My Dad--a disabled vet--one of the WWII 'suckers and losers' that Trump and his supporters 'don't like to look at' in parades, and whose sacrifice, along with thousands of others, is being pissed away by nearly half the country over the price of a dozen eggs. Maybe Trump was actually right. 000

Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 26/05/2025I sent an email about a recent article, and had a personal response LITERALLY within minutes. LOVE this publication! 1110
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 26/05/2025My Dad, a WWII disabled vet, was one of the 'suckers and losers' that Trump and his supporters 'don't like to look at' in parades, and whose sacrifice, along with thousands of others, is being pissed away by nearly half the country over the price of a dozen eggs. Maybe Trump was actually right. 010
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 26/05/2025Why are we not allowed to use the word 'deplorables' anymore? If the shoe fits? 010
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 24/05/2025My question: Will we pay another $1B when the $400M 747 is turned over to trump (when he leaves office) to take out all the classified upgrades/equipment? Or does private citizen trump get to keep them-- unlike any other former president? 000

Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 24/05/2025I hope sports issues don't become a permanent feature of your podcast. 100
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 24/05/2025Another example of the fallacy of the premise that business people make great political leaders. 020
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 23/05/2025What infuriates me the most are the D's who didn't vote, or rationalized that they would have gotten a better deal by voting R. Similar to what happened with H. Can you imagine the POTUS issues we would NOT be having IF....??? Let alone the legislative issues? 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 23/05/2025Doesn't even compare to the Obama tan suit scandal.... 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 23/05/2025So, if she can act like this, why do we have to resist using words like, deplorable? 010
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 23/05/2025Except for all the prophylactic pardons he will issue... probably with an auto pen. 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 22/05/2025This is horrible. That said, didn't a growing number of people in the lower income strata vote R because they thought they'd get a better deal, and the D's abandoned them? 000
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 21/05/2025But let's still keep talking about Biden s issues... Good grief! 040
Tom Alisankus @tja19.bsky.social · 21/05/2025Since this will hit the red states harder, I can't wait for the Kool aid drinkers' response when this lands. 000
