A excellent point! but this presupposes that there will be any correspondence between reality and the “findings” of trump’s edict-ed out-of-schedule census.

Thank you for this clarity. We just have to hold the line. There aren’t actually enough of them.

People who know nothing about the planning and preparation required to have crops halfway through the growing season by now.

Most of the expenditure has already happened; now the payoff will not happen, nor will the land be prepared for winter or next season.

Way to screw ‘real Americans’.

Silver lining: most of the loss will be incurred by wealthy owners of agribusiness, not family farms. And those are the ones who buy influence. Not such a great investment this time, huh?

It’s blatantly unconstitutional, so



 that probably means this Supreme Court will find a reason to let him do it.

That ship may have sailed at this point.

This affects all the areas of government that he’s eviscerating anyway. What it doesn’t do is affect how many voters there are to vote for him, as undocumented residents don’t vote anyway.

Yet another subject he doesn’t understand in the slightest.

Not to forget the skyrocketing grocery bills which will affect all “real Americans”, but disproportionately the lower income groups.

“At last Mouth said, ‘Part of how they make you obey is by making obedience seem peaceful, while resistance is violent. But really, either choice is about violence, one way or another.’”

I know the ideal is to remain nonviolent, but I don’t see any way that’s going to happen at this point.

so “conflict of interest” is the latest racist dog-whistle? as such if only someone in the ‘press’ would point out to the orange-cesspool that the CEOs of AMD and Nvidia and Microsoft are also other than an old white guys. @#$!!

I get that feeling. But I’m still holding on to hope for the time being. We (as a society) haven’t even come close to trying everything else yet.

Also, turning Trump into a martyr is the last thing I want to happen.

It’s a good tying-together of recent moments in the Epstein story.

Tl;dr: it’s the cover-up that gets you, not the crime.

[ETA] Review of the episode

My limited understanding of this is that he was not called a (convicted) sex offender, merely that he had sex with his mother in an outhouse. Isn’t there a difference? Is ‘sex offender’ not a term specifically used to describe someone whose status as one has been adjudged by a court of law?

I accept that merely saying that someone indulged in base sex acts is not necessarily defamation (e.g. may be parody); however, I was saying that labelling someone a (convicted) sex offender must surely be clear defamation (assuming they have not been convicted) and if not the law is an ass. (‘Offender’ having the meaning ‘has been found guilty as such by a court’.)

Hey-ho - perhaps an ‘angels on the head of a pin’ discussion with too fine a distinction.
