There is an ongoing grassroots effort to remove him from office, I'm pretty certain he's not getting reelected. Previously he skated under the radar and ran as a Democrat to get elected; Milwaukee is about as heavily Democratic as Chicago.

Counterpoint: its Milwaukee.

Huckabee pushed for the release of violent serial rapist named Wayne Dumind based on a conspiracy theory that Bill Clinton had locked up an innocent man for EVIL reasons. The only connection at all was that one of the victims was a distant cousin of Bill's. Dumond got released and raped and murdered at least more woman.

Also in 1998 he tried to cover up for his son after he got in trouble for torturing a stray dog to death. That's Christian values in a loving nut shell.

You're both right.

They being said, minority's rights mean a lot more to me than protecting the feelings of an elected official or public figure.

This pervasive attitude that feminist = screeching harpy or minority advocate = SJW has made it easier to dismiss LEGITIMATE complaints from those people who had no choice in their genetic makeup.

You can choose not to be Republican. You can't stop being trans or black or a woman.

Russia builds replica Reichstag so children can recreate 1945 victory

quote:

The Russian defence ministry is constructing a replica of the Reichstag at a military theme park on the outskirts of Moscow, to allow patriotic Russian children to recreate the storming of the building during the Soviet capture of Berlin in 1945.

Russia’s defence minister, Sergei Shoigu, announced the plan for the replica during a speech to the Duma, Russia’s parliament, on Wednesday.

“We are constructing the Reichstag in Patriot Park,” he said. “Not in full, but still. Now our Youth Army guys can storm not just any old thing but the actual building.”

The Youth Army was created in 2015, to allow children as young as 10 to receive basic military training and “patriotic education”. President Vladimir Putin’s opening of Patriot Park the same year fits into a pattern of rising Russian nationalism following the 2014 annexation of Crimea.

Shoigu did not specify when the new Reichstag model would be completed, and whether members of the public would also be able to recreate the storming or only members of the Youth Army.

There's also this response to German objections

quote:

"It seems that some in Germany have forgotten that Hitler and those who built the Third Reich started their bloody march from the Reichstag," spokesperson Igor Konashenkov told DW. "The attacks from German politicians are met not only with a complete lack of understanding [in Russia] but also make one wonder about what views they may really have about the founders of the Third Reich."

The Swedes don't know who the gently caress he is.

During the show on Thursday, the network invited Swedish journalist Anne-Sofie Naslund and “Swedish defense and national security advisor” Nils Bildt to talk about the country's immigration policy.

According to the Post, the Dagens Nyheter newspaper on Friday reported that Bildt is unknown to the Swedish Foreign Ministry and the armed forces.

Donald Trump almost exclusively tweets poo poo he hears on fox news. A non-trivial number of his tweets over the years have appeared immediately after a TV segment about the subject.

But yeah, it's definitely a sign that the party establishment is trying to placate the left while safeguarding their own positions (and thus likely continuing their losing strategy).
