Unseen, The Zombies I refer to are not the 60’s British Invasion band. The crisis in Little Rock predated them. I’m referring to undead things in human form who travel in hoards and prey on real humans with brains.

The mobs in Little Rock met that description. The mobs on campuses today are little different. An armed esc…

And “Sleepy Joe” is used more than just by MAGA. It’s really too generous, because it assumes Biden has the sentience to need sleep.

If Trump being dictatorial, let the Courts declare the statue Unconstitutional instead of just ruling on it this one insta…

Unseen, Deporting Citizens to a place where they couldn’t exercise right to counsel or due process would be Unconstitutional. But not non-Citizens.

And if the 1952 law giving the Secretary of State power to deport for foreign policy reasons is Uncontitutional, wasn’t it so under every subsequent President including Oba…

Trump only conforms with law when he has no choice. Now, he’s the President.

I might also add to this that non-Citizens don’t have a right to hold public office, even Citizens are generally required to live in the jurisdiction where they hold public office, and only a Natural-Born U.S. Citizen can be President of the U.S.

Which non-citizen is running for public office? (strawman?).

As for M…

If the person is here illegally, the outcome of the ruling might not be to the person’s liking.

Duh. Trump is deporting people without actual judicial rulings.

The Neisei put into detention camps by FDR were natural-born U.S. Citizens, not immigrants.

As are some of the deportees.

And none of the Neisei were even a…

When someone enters America, they are subject to American law just like a citizen. If a tourist gets a speeding ticket, he has the due process right to show up in court and dispute it, just like a native citizen.

The only basis Trump has for denying anyone due process is his claim that he can use war powers, and all of the legal eagles…[Read more]

Robert, Well, the Judge is just as presumptuous as Trump if he thinks the U.S. justice system applies to El Salvador.

Nayib Bukele, El Salvador’s tinpot dictator, is under Trump’s thumb. He’s maintaining a Trump Administration concentration camp for $6 million, not as an expression of El Salvadoran sovereignty.

And if…

You can stop worrying if you might be a redneck (Jeff Foxworthy reference for anyone who’s scratching their head) and start worrying about whether you might be a traitor who hates America and deserves to be sitting in an El Salvadoran prison:

We need to start planning for a world where many citizens won’t have jobs but somehow aren’t destitute. Not having a traditional job doesn’t necessarily mean sitting on the couch eating bon-bons and watching TV. I, for example, don’t have a job but am active all day long.

The alternative would seem to be walled cities with people with jobs…[Read more]

No president has been this unpopular. And he managed to do it in just three months!

Unseen, The average person would also benefit from AI and automation if all they had to do was debug the processors and spray clods off of the automated plows and oil the machines. Humans would also still have to provide oversight if AI made mistakes. As I’ve pointed out earlier, they still need art lessons.

Sounds fulfilling. LOL

Judging from that video, Idahoans weren’t in good shape even before Trump if they are that dependent on thousnds of illegal aliens and food banks.

Clearly we are heading toward a future where there will be relatively few jobs, and many of those low-paying. Of course, that doesn’t apply to the oligarchs who will benefit f…[Read more]

Sunday school has had a few articles involving unforseen consequences. How this apparent debacle in tariffs and related Trumpery will play out no human can know. Seems safe to predict no good will come of it and yet we don’t know.

I agree, but he may still blunder his way to war.

What do you think will happen if he attempts a Ukraine-like takeover of Greenland, which is part of Denmark, which is part of NATO?
