You cited a guy who regularly does pro-Israel propaganda. Kinda making my point for me there.

US defense secretary unveils plan that will work to ensure service members have the ‘right testosterone levels’

Mandatory gender affirming care.

wonder why this guy was Islamaphobic and wanted to kill all Muslims. couldnt be because Biden and Trump and the mainstream media have spent the last 3 years demonizing them beyond belief in service to the genocide in Gaza.

“Islamophobia” is as real as antisemitism.

What american values? Grifting? Lying? Racism? Xenophobia?

The $5,000 bill that Raymond Chandler famously called 'a portrait of Madison' in The Long Goodbye was discontinued in 1969, but is still legal tender -- except its rarity means it's now worth about 60 times face value at auction. Whether the grisly Trump coin will ever have much bad-taste novelty collector value... hmm.

I have a 1921 silver Morgan Dollar I was given, not worth much but very nice. Eagle on one side, the head of Liberty on the other, no presidents involved. Morgan had to recreate the original dies for that special issue as the originals had been destroyed.

I think Coolidge appeared on a 1926 half-dollar, but that wasn't illegal at the time, whereas the Trump coin is.


I thought they shifted to the coin as it's not illegal to have a live person on a coin.

Trump does a great job of flooding us all with the most stupid ****.

I guess there may be a workaround if it's claimed that this coin is not a continuation of the series that the Presidential $1 Coin Act 2005 applied to, since that barred living presidents.

The workaround is trump ordered one of his lackeys to make it happen.

This is what happens when you don't have sufficient constitutional checks on executive power.

Theoretically we do. But congress and sc have transformed from checks to bootlickers.

You guys don’t have a constitution lmao


Yes we do. It's unwritten which for all it's faults is vastly superior to a written one.

Sounds like some dumb British foolishness to make pretend that the US wasn’t the OG.


If anyone somehow needed it, you have trump to prove it.

Very lame attempt at a rebuttal.

Maybe when Muslims are completely in control of your country in about twenty years they'll write up a constitution. It'll be in Arabic though.

As usual on matters of foreign affairs, you’re wrong.

Americans can’t deal with their previously hallowed but now failed constitution that Trumps driven a juggernaut through and are resorting to talking shyte about the UK constitution, parts of which are written of course, like parts of common law that includes Magna Carta and the bill of rights etc, and various acts of parliament like the Union Act etc.

That's what Nazis in Europe said 11 years ago. But as we all know, Nazis are worthless uneducated liars, soooooo......


Public health disparities provide an important lens for understanding social and political change in the USA. Using individual-level medical data and death records, this study shows that conservative Americans experienced worsening health and higher mortality than liberals during the 2010s. Here we find evidence consistent with two potential mechanisms. First, demographic realignment within political coalitions brought less healthy individuals into the conservative camp. Yet by the 2020s, demographic change, public policy and COVID-19 do not fully account for the widening gap in mortality rates. Public opinion data are consistent with a second mechanism: declining trust in medical professionals among right-leaning individuals, including lower willingness to seek care, follow clinical advice or believe in medication effectiveness, even for issues unrelated to COVID-19. These patterns suggest that growing ideological divides in health behaviours are leaving conservative Americans increasingly vulnerable to preventable health risks.

by geezerchess

Thanks for the correction. I wrote 'Patriot Front' in earlier posts, but since I'm an idiot I thoughtlessly started to call them Proud Boys.

Both groups are beyond disgusting.

addendum: Likely safer on a train than in their neighborhood.

Anyhoo, glad you finally caught up to everyone else.
