Do you have an Air Miles Card?

The JCPOA was the best possible deal we were going to get from Iran at that time (and nobody who drafted the agreement was dumb enough to believe it would prevent Iran from ever getting a viable nuclear weapon but rather slowed progress towards it by providing us comprehensive and verifiable evidence via the IAEA they were compliant with enrichment yields and inventory of subterfuges).

Those agreements where the consensus of experts (this is to slow them, not stop them) ran into public consensus (they are giving Iran billions of dollars to build more nukes and blow up America) and lost.

One of the worst arms control mistakes of the 21st century was pulling out of the JCOPA unilaterally imo.

Pages back but I enjoyed this typo

Overall point is correct though and it was one of the more enraging things Trump did

Particular because he's saying "oh no the left is making the country like that authoritarian hell hole one run by my personal hero Putin who I wish to emulate." Like of course he's going to very obviously leave Putin out when mentioning Navalny's death.

Phew, good thing the country isn't so polarised now.
It legitimately isn't as polarized today as the nation was at the height of the slavery arguments. I think the ACW talk should actually put things into perspective, because you've got a lot of grumbling but no one's actually gonna secede or get into a shooting war over something like abortion rights. Even nominally the red-blue states end up demonstrating that a lot of the Republican party's agenda priorities are rather unpopular and if push came to shove most people would vote to preserve things like abortion access. There's a lot of fake outrages to stir up an amorphous grievance but when your most bitter partisans basically don't even show up to protests because they're too busy being online Internet warriors warning about FBI honeytraps, you're probably doing better than at a lot of periods of American history where the nation really was on the cusp of tearing itself apart.

Yeah the MAGA crew like when he acts like a particularly dumb school yard bully. Doesn't matter the target, they just like seeing him bully people as it makes him look "strong".

I'd say none of them even know what his polices are, but gently caress he only has one, so I guess most of them can at least remember that.

quote:


A trucker who went viral for saying he would refuse to drive into the Big Apple in protest over former President Trump getting hit with a $355 million fine in his fraud case has reversed course after he says he was being “misrepresented” as a leader of a movement. In a viral video posted by user “Chicago1Ray” on X, the trucker said he and some colleagues will “start refusing loads to New York City starting on Monday.”

“I don’t know how far across the country this is or how many truckers are going to start denying loads going to New York City, but I’ll tell you what — you f–k around and find out,” he said in the video, which has now been deleted. The trucker explained in a follow-up post that he took the video down because he didn’t want to be seen as a leader of a movement when all he did was post “chatter” he was hearing.

One of the most clarifying things I've heard was that they want to be movie protagonists where a revolution shows up behind them, all their perceived enemies fall at their feet in bloodless fashion, the actual fight is a tasteful montage of sanitized quick cuts, and then the scene fades to the aftermath where they're given medals and everyone goes home. Credits roll. They want their 15 minutes of fame without doing a single drat thing.

But the moment where this fantastic idyll of instant fame and relevance threatens their actual largely comfortable existence, you see backpeddling that could cleanly power whole states.
