Do you really think he changed his stance since then?

He’s also the new US ambassador to Israel. That’s from 2 hours ago.

And to make this even more ridiculous than it already is, they’re calling this board the “warrior board”.

If Donald Trump approves the order, it could fast-track the removal of generals and admirals found to be “lacking in requisite leadership qualities,” … But it could also create a chilling effect on top military officers, given the president-elect’s past vow to fire “woke generals,” referring to officers seen as promoting diversity in the ranks at the expense of military readiness.

As commander in chief, Trump can fire any officer at will, but an outside board whose members he appoints would bypass the Pentagon’s regular promotion system, signaling across the military that he intends to purge a number of generals and admirals.

…

But some former officials believe the potential Trump administration is looking to politicize the military. “Do they start wearing MAGA hats in formation to signal who’s where?” asked one former senior Pentagon official. “The potential for this to go wrong is infinite.”

Emphases mine.

Good job everyone who sat out or voted 3rd party this election. You saved Palestine!

If you’re a rich asshole, everywhere is your Utah.

I’ve said before (and will say again) that US elections are like our national-scale county fairs: idiots that your normally never see come out of the woodwork.

Update: Found the banner. Thanks, Wayback Machine!

However, with Democrats’ narrow majority and opposition from Senator Joe Manchin, any replacement would face confirmation challenges.

Yeah, the safer bet is to hope she stays healthy for at least the next 4 years. Her stepping down now would 100% be a vacancy that the Senate refuses to let Biden fill.

Reddit is dead to me and blocked in my router, so I’m good sharing knowledge and cool stuff here.

Taco Bell

Going to?

Already has.

True, but with that level of selfishness, the “eff you” is there implicitly.

Both chili and vegetable soup.

Never cared for either growing up, but now they’re both comfort food, especially on cold days.

The “I got mine” mentality.

Yep, you nailed it with ‘selfishness’.

More blame shifting, and I will not accept it. We all knew what was at stake, and we let it happen.

Again, we failed.

No. I’m not going to blame the fire department for not putting out the fire because they didn’t tap dance to my satisfaction.

We all saw there was a fire, but too many people still asked the people who would put it out (or at least not make it worse) to dance.

We should have mandatory voting like Australia. But our country is full of contrarians who’s mantra is apparently “I don’t want to, and you can’t make me”. Election Day isn’t even a holiday (making it such would at least be a freaking step in the right direction).

Biden/Harris: [Works to help working class]

Working Class: [Doesn’t listen / pay attention]

Working Class: WhY ArE yoU igNOrinG us??

The only way to “fail” democracy is to not participate. So yeah, people can fail.

No. Just no.

The Democrats did not fail us. WE DID. We failed. The threat of Trump 2.0 was apparent to all. If that’s not enough motivation to at least show the hell up to vote and kick the can down the road on better things, then nothing is. Every democratic voter who stayed home or voted 3rd party was derelict in their civic duty to prevent something worse.

I get where you’re coming from, but I don’t and voted against it. And tried to get as many people to join me as I could. I tried.
