What are you asking? If you get fired, you go find a different job or go on strike.

The US needs to add long-term contracts to all jobs so this shit can't happen again, but most Americans don't seem to realize how US labor law is shit.

That whole time, Republicans couldn't get anything else done. Just imagine what Democrats could actually obstruct if more of them had the values and willpower to do so.

McConnell and Paul also see the writing on the wall. When the cost of living skyrockets, if democracy somehow survives, the Republicans are right fucked.

Bernie is independent, so of course he can't replace him... They aren't in the same party.

Yalls have a guy convicted of rape facing zero consequences, and you think saying his name is a shit practice?

I don't think these are reciprocal. I think these are unilateral, and when countries respond, their tariffs will be reciprocal. The distinction is very important. This is a problem created by Trump, not by other countries. You don't get to choose false language to describe it that shifts the blame.

Quite frankly, I don't give a f*** if they look in the mirror and say that they will do better. We've been calling on them to do better for many years, or decades even, depending who you are. Don't bother f****** telling us how you're going to f****** do better. Just start doing better already.

You really can't. How is Trump looking out for him? By firing women and black people and Native Americans? By arresting college students? Jesus.

I don't think he's dense. Clearly he knows exactly what he's done. He knows that firing people could leave them homeless or dead, and he knows that cutting off life-saving medicine has killed people and will kill many more. His basic knowledge of well known facts is there... It's just that he's so narcissistic that none of that matters. When other people get f***** over it's not important. It is only his ego that matters.

Of course that's my best guess based on his tweets and video clips. It could be that he actually is that dense.

And yet not once did he apologize for that Nazi salute and explain how horrified he was that he accidentally did it.

Reasons depend on the person. Of course it's a giant mix of what everyone has written already.

Remember that the billionaires want more money and power. They love to use discrimination to get regular folk to fight against each other, while they get even richer. For example, the immigration prisons, those are privately run, right? Free money. Musk's Starlink contracts with the feds? Free money.

The rich will always find shady ways to get richer. Usually it's really obvious, if you stop and look for it. Many of them are also racist and sexist, and some are nazis.

OSAKA – An American man known for streaming provocative videos has been arrested on suspicion of breaking into a construction site in Osaka, police said Friday.

Ramsey Khalid Ismael, 23, known as "Johnny Somali" on YouTube, was arrested with another American, Jeremiah Dwane Branch, 24, who says he is a university student, according to police.

Ismael's videos include those in which he makes light of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and makes racist comments about Japanese people.

The two men allegedly made an unauthorized entry into a hotel construction site in Osaka's Chuo Ward on Aug. 30 with Branch filming a masked Ismael at the scene, according to the police.

They have told police they will not speak until they see lawyers, police said.
