Everything that has been said about Mamdani was said word-for-word about Kennedy.

So I'm left wondering what his play for the POTUS is
Honestly I don’t think he would even make it out of a fair Democratic Party primary. He would whiff it big with the Deep South, which is the most important region in Democratic primaries. Now given the recent track record I think there’s a good chance he gets a rigged primary and wins that, but he would flop in the general against basically anyone. He’s the white male Kamala Harris.

In fifty years the Latinos, Indians, East Asians and Muslims will have Irishified and the United States will be back to being 85 percent white.

Sure, but even within that mindset Roe isn’t great. I think she also touched on the backlash it caused and said it might have been better to let it progress through democratic means, but I could be misremembering.

All 12 members were killed in a vicious ambush set by the Free Wales Army.

I’m one of those users, but I’m in no way qualified to tell you what any kind of aerial phenomenona are.
Eh, it wouldn’t be as big a deal as you think. Cops and courts had been catching and charging drunk drivers for 80 years before the breathalyzer or other chemical testing even existed. The first one was in 1897.

I am solidly pro-choice, but I fully understand the pro-life's anger at Roe v Wade.
Even Justice Ginsburg once said that she thought that Roe was awkward law that probably set back the pro-choice movement a lot.

Probably they get rid of birthright citizenship but make an exception for anyone who’s gotten it to date. Which isn’t totally inconsistent because the Constitution frowns on the ex-post-facto application of laws.
The Stalin-haters won’t accept any source.
Edit: Kek, guys it’s just a meme

They’re putting up riot fencing around the Supreme Court building right now, which would seem to imply that they are going to rule against birthright citizenship.

Just because everyone hates the current regime doesn’t mean they’re going to agree on a replacement, especially since Westeros wasn’t even one country when the Targaryens arrived. Robert getting personally slighted by Aegon and going on a suicidal revenge spree finally created a scheming point for everyone to rally around. Many such cases in real history.

Those had the benefit of being run mostly through cutouts like Wagner or CIA SAD. Pretty different than NATO peacekeepers firing on officially flagged Russian Spetznaz.
Eventually, but if Blunt had just thought of his career and followed the order like a moron, I don’t think Jackson would have been able to make that call.
Also, this seems a bit anemic for a top level post.
That’s because I meant to post it in the Friday Fun Thread 😬
Why does English pop-rock musician and one-hit-wonder James Blunt get so little credit for saving the world from nuclear hellfire in 1999? He’s the Vasily Arkhipav of the 21st Century. He should have gotten the Medal of Honor for that.

Yeah well flashing your cop lights at me just because you disagree isn’t that nice either.

It’s not one base. The lowest mainstream media numbers are 250 separate impacts (and these are one to two thousand kilogram warheads) over at least 16 different facilities in the Middle East. I don’t mean to be a jerk, but you’ve clearly read very little of even just the basic media coverage about this.

I don’t think it’s unfair to call a base that’s been hit by so many missiles that it’s basically rubble and can’t be used anymore “glassed”. You are latching on to an at most slightly hyperbolic term.

However, I remain skeptical that you were being sincere in your claims that US military bases have been glassed and the IAF has been destroyed on the runway.
You might disagree on the degree. But look at the communications coming from Trump, Vance, Rubio, Netanyahu and Ben Givr. Does it sound like things are going really well to you? My version of events matches the chatter a lot better than the one where Iran is collapsing in two weeks.
Yes, Kennedy being soft on Communism to the point of being a secret or not-so-secret red was a constant rhetorical drum beat on the right, like it has been about every single democratic politician since FDR. Look at the “Wanted For Treason” flyers that were being passed around Dallas the day he was murdered.
