Please no more sympathy for the shooter

I know people here have big hearts and that’s why I love it here. I’m sorry if this kid was bullied in school, I really am. But he doesn’t get to kill two people and jeopardize the futures of 360 million people to decide their own destiny.
It’s always these violent killers who matter more than the rest of us -“What made Little Adolph so violent?” I don’t know and I don’t care.
Justifying his destructive rage is not helpful in promoting a civilized society. It sends a message to all the other lone wolves that it’s ok to express their rage by blowing up the world.

And take their damned guns . Please.

Joe Biden is the Comeback Kid. New narrative starts today!

He’s up in the polls. The people have spoken. Stock Market is up/inflation is down. Jobs are up/crime is down.
We need to take over the narrative. The Media is easily led.

Waiting for a Tory Wipeout this 4th of July!

Not that Labour will be able to fix the mess that was left behind. Maybe Joe can rush through some great trade agreements to help bolster their economy.

Senator John Fetterman anyone?

If I weren’t so lazy, I would find all of the old posts of the doom and gloom here on DU following the Fetterman - OZ debate.
Y’all had me convinced it was an electoral wipeout.
The man couldn’t string two sentences together but he was dragging our whiny asses over the finish line.
You think Joe wants this job? He’s lost 2 beloved children and a young wife. He almost lost a third child to drugs.
One thing he’s never lost? AN ELECTION!!!

I’m standing by Joe “Never EVER bet against the United States of America”) Biden!

Do you feel better or worse than Obama's first debate with Romney?

I felt worse with Obama’s performance. The economy had not fully recovered, and I was scared we would lose. It’s tough for a working president to run the country and prepare for debate. The unemployed guy is always better.

Oh, and John Kerry and Walter Mondale kicked ass.

What happens to Ukraine now?

I can’t think how we are going to get funding now.

Special thanks to our Closers, Obama and Biden

Time well spent in the last days of the election, in all the right places.

Russians fleeing Russia - reminds me of poster from 60s or 70s

“What if they declared a war and no one came?”

Every fleeing conscript is a body that does not kill and a body that doesn’t get killed.
