We Americans are constantly reminded that the rest of the world is far too invested in caring about what goes on here. Feel free to ignore WOAT USA and go about your business. This is the perfect opportunity to work on raising the status of your own country while the USA burns from the inside. We'll give you a heads up before it escalates to the point of nukes being tossed around.

Or are you concerned it'll get bad enough that all the refugees will start knocking on your door instead? Not likely, but I can see why you'd be worried.

I’m assuming that’s just a mainline injection for the Qannon conspiracy.

Ah the olden days. When I was **** on for being shrill by all the reasonable, level headed thinkers. I mean you were right about part of it, Rep. the only reward I have coming to me is being right about WAAF and it is not that sweet.

And if immigrants don't get such benefits you don't really have open borders OR a welfare state. You have an unlimited guest worker program where anyone is free come and work in the US and possibly starve in the process if things don't work out and they don't make a living wage.

And the cruel other extreme of that is Medicare for all for citizens and allowing unlimited immigrants without a path to citizenship. That's obviously a very unjust and exploitative society. And everything in the middle of that is a too hot/too cold balancing act, where it's not clear that we could legislate a satisfactory equilibrium. One year in the US then getting citizenship is too close to the first untenable scenario, ten years in the US then citizenship is too close to the exploitative second scenario.

Homer: Doh, you're right! If we have a policy of giving everyone a free pony and then open our borders everyone are going to come here and try and get their free pony! Clearly that's unsustainable.

Lisa: But that's specious reasoning, Dad. We don't have a policy of giving everyone a free pony.

Homer: Well yes, Lisa, but...

Lisa: In fact when it comes to health care, the countries that closely border us have cheaper and more accessible health care systems than we do.

Homer: Well sure, but how's the weather?

Lisa: And when it comes to actual free things, Scandinavian countries like Norway and Sweden not only have free health care and free university tuition, but paid parental leave too.

Homer: They do?

Lisa: Sure they do. But I don't see a whole ton of people just picking up and moving there, do you?

Marge: Homer, Maggie needs changed again! My hands are full, will you do it please?

Homer: Hmm paid parental leave. Lisa, how hard is it to learn to speak Scandinavian?

I don't think Trump is aware of QAnon just because I can't imagine him not feeding into that **** hard if he did know about it. There was also a video of him saying one of the Q "codewords" at a rally and a big cheer went out and he looked confused by it but maybe he was just acting.

Not much just selling nuclear tech to the country from whence came the vast majority of 9/11 hijackers

this is your 2nd one so i'm gonna go ahead and say that i'm actually not down with these snipes against romanians- believe it or not, i've interacted extensively with several romanian poker players over the years and they are all really good dudes. romanians have a long history of being treated poorly and you shouldn't contribute to negative stereotypes

The dems were sad instead of being happy that there was no collusion and i don't understand why? Now let's hope AG Barr creates a new special counsel to investigate into the FISA Warrants and the counterintelligence investigation . The head of this new special counsel should be Trey Gowdy imo.

i love that in the common right wing derposphere they cant even just stick to the truth when its already slanted towards them. they have to keep injecting lies.

its why democrats cant give them an inch in the current climate, they will take the inch and then lie about the mile they got instead.

Georgie Conway has been firing shats from the bell tower all morning, most at Trump, but then there's this

Is he not aware of Ben Shapiro's involvement with Breitbart?

I have Romanian neighbors and do Romanian deadlifts. The husband is at least a little a bit racist, tho. Deadlifts legit.

It would be funnier if his votes weren't more valuable than mine by several orders of magnitude.
