Do the recent events in MN highlight the fact that the 2nd amendment may be obsolete? How can a normal citizen actually fight against a tyrannical government using overwhelming force and hope to win? Alex Pretti died because he legally CARRIED a gun, even though he never used it.

Fucking tell me again how he was a threat with his CELL PHONE in his hand. ICE is a terrorist organization.

Tonight I am heartbroken. My country is being destroyed and I can't escape the feeling that it's intentional. ICE murdered a man today and it feels like Trump WANTS the chaos so he can suspend mid-terms in order to remain in power.

MAGA - The 2nd amendment is to protect against a tyrannical government. Also MAGA - Cheering as the USA shows itself to be a tyrannical government.

MAGA - "Stop calling us Nazis!" MAGA -"Check out our sweet Nazi slogan!"

Trump's obsession with Greenland will strain or destroy NATO. I believe this is intentional. It is his marching orders from Putin.

Trump literally said he notified oil companies before his actions in Venezuela. Before he even notified Congress. America is no longer righteous. We are criminals. Thugs.

MAGA is too stupid to understand that it is both good that Maduro is gone, and bad that we attacked another country to remove him.

Happy New Year to everyone. I know it's hard to keep hope alive at times, but the strength I see here reminds me that this too, shall pass, and we'll never have to endure Trump again.

I know this will piss some people off but I'm beyond caring anymore. If you don't like abortion, don't have one. As a man, I don't have a uterus, and don't have a fucking say in it. What's worse? A child not being born, or being born, unwanted, resented, suffering?

I know intelligent people supporting Trump, and it will never make sense. I imagine it's part willful ignorance, part family tradition (daddy was Republican so I must be), and part laziness in questioning what they believe. The greatest lesson my father taught me was to question my own beliefs.

The more educated a person is, the more likely they are to lean left. Trump ~ "The poorly educated love me" Republicans still unable to connect the dots.

Quite literally, nothing Trump said tonight was truthful. His entire speech was a lie.

In Mexico, the smuggling of US made guns is as dangerous as the Fentanyl problem in the USA. How many celebrating the USA destroying boats off Venezuela would be OK with Mexico destroying US fishing boats claiming (with no evidence) they're gun smuggling? We're setting dangerous precedent.

Statistics show the more educated people are, the more likely they are to lean left. Republicans ~ "Education is stupid" Yep, THAT'S the relevant take-away here...

I will never understand in my lifetime how people with functioning brain cells can listen to Trump speak and think, "This is the guy who should lead the country!"

Here we go... We just seized an oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela with ZERO reasons given.

Who could have guessed that a b-list Fox TV personality wouldn't be qualified to run the Dept of Defense? Hegseth ordered those strikes. He's responsible. The deflection and delays about releasing the full video speaks volumes about what it shows.

Adm Frank Bradley is a VERY experienced military leader. I find it surprising he'd knowingly commit a war crime. I can't help but feel Hegseth pressured him hard.

Admiral Bradley has now said they waited over 40 minutes between strikes on the boat on Sept 2nd. For forty minutes they watched these two men, and then decided to kill them. Who are we now?

If you can't defend the actions of your political party without referencing another party or person's actions, you lose the debate. What someone else does has no relevance to whether something your guy does is good or bad.

Mark Twain once said, "I have never wished a man dead, but I've read some obituaries with great pleasure." Sums up my feelings about Trump perfectly.

There is no clearer justification for the video put out by 6 Democrats to not follow unlawful orders than this.

One thing we need to be careful of is simply becoming X on the left. If the Trump administration or GOP does something good, we need to be objective and celebrate it. I mean, they haven't yet, but I can dream... 🤣

So "Anti-Woke" he sleeps through cabinet meetings...

Reality Time: If Trump truly intends to go full dictator, it'll happen in the next 11 months. The way he's destroying the country, there is a full on GOP bloodbath coming next Nov, and when that happens and Dems take ALL of Congress, he knows he's going to be impeached, removed, and jailed.

I have come to the conclusion that the biggest threat to our country is the uninformed electorate. People who cannot articulate their political position on anything beyond what their respective echo chamber has told them to think. This is why Trump loves uneducated people. He can control them.

Trump is bombing suspected drug traffickers in international waters, at the same time he pardoned someone who trafficked 400 TONS of drugs into the USA. One paid Trump a bribe (probably), one didn't. Guess which one is which.

Trump is preparing to attack Venezuela. I wish I could understand his end game here. Drugs is a smoke screen. He wants something else. bbc.com/news/article...

58 laps around the sun and I've never been so disappointed. The country has become something I could have never imagined growing up: Xenophobic Uninquisitive Intellectually dishonest Afraid of our own shadow Incapable of ever admitting error Trump is a symptom. The cult is the true disease.

Back in 2015 I was 100% certain Trump couldn't win due to faith in my fellow Americans. I was wrong. We recovered from his disastrous decisions, but i didn't think we'd be stupid enough to elect him again. Wrong. I've come to conclude I'm surrounded by morons.

I hate to play in the dirt, but it's really time reporters start responding in kind to Trump and company. When he insults them, they should insult him right back, loudly and clearly. When he tells someone "You're a terrible reporter", they should respond with, "You're a terrible president"

So let me get this right.. Trump reduced tariffs, those things he said consumers don't pay, to reduce prices that consumers pay. And not a single reporter has asked him how that works? We're WAY past time for reporters to be honest and stop playing "Access Journalism"

Terrific

Trump is the embodiment of everything we teach our children NOT to be. So riddle me this: How do Christians support a man who so blatantly contradicts literally every teaching of Jesus?

I have never wished a man dead. That said, the world will a better place when Trump is gone.

MAGA, why was convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell moved to a minimum security prison in Texas shortly after meeting with Trump's former personal defense attorney?

MAGA sure is quiet about the recent shootings...

If Charlie Kirk was a 9-year old victim of a school shooting, Republicans would have offered the usual 'Thoughts and Prayers' and moved on already. This isn't about Charlie Kirk. It's about political points, and retaining power. Once Kirk isn't useful, you'll never hear about him again from MAGA

Trump is the tyranny for which the 2nd amendment was created.

Every interaction with MAGA lately: Me: Trump is all over the Epstein files or he'd be showing off how he's not in them. MAGA: Biden, Autopen, etc Me: Does any of that, if true, make Trump's actions ok? MAGA: Fuck you, TDS, you hate America. We are not a serious country anymore.

Real patriotism is loving your country enough to hold it accountable when it's wrong.

I don't care how many flags you put on your pickup truck. Real patriotism is loving your country enough to hold it accountable when it's WRONG.

Trump today said Jerome Powell, Chairman of the Federal Reserve wasn't a smart man, and he was surprised he was selected. Trump selected him in 2017.

I'm so tired of MAGA referencing the US Constitution when they clearly have no idea what's actually in it.

I am in pain. The most important person in my world is out of control in a self-destructive way and I can't seem to find a way to get through to her.

So Israel attacks Iran, them claims self-defense. They assassinated Iran's chief nuclear negotiator, and then claimed Iran refused to negotiate. And our idiot POTUS jumps in with both of his bone-spurred flat feet.

I am a VERY patriotic American. I love my country. Protest is at the very core of our foundation. The flag is just a piece of cloth. We need to protect what the flag symbolizes. Freedom. Democracy. Decency. If you need to burn it to protest injustice is this country, burn it.

Republicans cry about Democrats saying they worry more about helping illegal immigrants over 'real Americans' while simultaneously voting against EVERY SINGLE piece of legislation designed to help Americans. Hypocrisy at an epic level.
