And some incendiary ones too:
When a Democratic politician gets killed, will the rest of them FINALLY stand up and shout about this kind of incitement?

There is so much prejudice against non-Christians in the U.S. military that Iāve personally known quite a few people put some version of it on their dog tags just to keep from being bullied. Having the alternate symbols as options is a great step in the right direction, but feeling safe enough to use them is still a bridge too far for many.

Throw in āditch the corporatismā and I feel that way about the Salvation Army. My grandparents were deeply involved (my grandfather even played in the band), and they too have a service component.
But until they stop hurting LGBTQ+ and undermining womenās rights, until they smarten up their accounting so that theyāre less of a āfor profitā church, I canāt support them. Not even in memory of two deeply kind people who happened to believe.

Yeah, I can imagine. It sucks.
Yep. There are plenty other examples as well, Iām sure.

It is an article of faith that parts of the government (FDA, NIH, USGS, to indulge my scientism) are run by professionals, who know what they are doing. Yet this professionalism has no constitutional basis-- and can be easily sabotaged by the president. Attempts to establish institutions that are responsive to both Congress and the President havenāt fared well in the Supreme Court.
The system of security clearances is ultimately controlled by the President, who in his infinite wisdom, can abuse it for political or personal advantage.

I mean. Gabby Giffords changed nothing.
The response was the typical, āLone whacko, not one of ours, no TRUE Scotsmanā¦ā

Right now in a number of states the laws allow a baby to be born from his or her motherās womb in the 9th month. It is wrong. It has to change.

Despicable, of course.
Whatās interesting to me is that if Trump were as much of a doddering, insane moron as people on what amounts to the American left think he is, heād slip up with his slurs more often. Notice, for instance, that while ātake your wealth awayā can be construed as antisemitic, he doesnāt ever toss out a slur about Jewish people thatās anywhere near as hamfisted and offensive as āPocahontas.ā

Trump also told the audience that some Jewish people in America donāt love Israel enough, āWe have to get the people of our country, of this country, to love Israel more, I have to tell you that. We have to do it. We have to get them to love Israel more.ā ā¦
ā¦ Trump then excused his administrationās lack of progress on a Middle East peace plan, saying, āIf Jared Kushner canāt do it, it canāt be done.ā
