This is the only Dean I recognize.

I'm pretty sure that if he publicly says he's going to disobey orders, that's grounds for removal, even under a sane president. (Although a sane president might not choose to remove him)

Even if we accept that, it does little to make him look better. It's claiming that he can force people to do what he wants, rather than negotiating with them to mutual benefit.

ALSO, Trump can't seem to handle Iran. What makes him think we can handle Canada?

I'm in favor of all that, too.

Plus, we all know that, whatever the theory, a lot of people just want to duck with Muslims.

The men forcing women to dress like this aren't using the law to force them. Laws forbidding dressing like this are, theoretically, to protect them from being forced.

I'm open to the probability that there are such women. But I can't imagine that they area anything but a sharp minority.

What about the ones who don't want to, but are forced into it?

Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

If you can afford a private aircraft, you can afford to pay some fucking taxes.

[–] SaltSong@startrek.website 8 points 4 months ago

Or maybe tax the rich? They have money. They just don't want to use it.

No, that's just me being stupid.

This sounds like the first chapter of 1986.
