Their statement on being a press conference venue for the Trump administration was that their business was not supporting anyone in particular, but was thrilled to be part of the democratic process. The tone this statement was said in led me to believe that they were also thrilled to facilitate Trump’s goons making a hilarious fuck-up.
If the government can disappear one person without due process, then they can disappear any person without due process.
I went to the one in my small city in SC. Had a few hundred people along a decently busy road. I was pleasantly surprised as hundreds of passing cars showed support over the 2 hours we were there, and only a dozen or so expressed opposition. I was not surprised that a majority of passers-by didn’t engage at all though. The real majority in this country is not left or right, it’s apathy.
No one thinks an older account means a more valid opinion. However, brand new accounts are often trolls evading bans, so that’s why that was mentioned. And I gotta say, your comments are coming off pretty trollish.
You keep saying that other comments are supporting Hamas and apologizing for terrorists when you are literally the only person talking about them in these comments so far. Critique of Israeli government is not an endorsement of Hamas, as they can, in fact, both be awful. I find it weird that you just assumed critique of one was somehow support of the other.
Nah, he just does this every so often. He’ll say something surprisingly sensible and moral like this when speaking of the cuff or reacting to new events, and then quickly backtrack on it when he remembers what the GOP want him to say. He knows his usual stances on topics are wrong, he just forgets to keep that to himself occasionally. It’s extremely frustrating being one of his constituents.
I give it 24 hours, give or take, for Senator Spineless to remember who his masters are and publicly backtrack on this comment. It’s weirdly not rare for him to say something good and sensible like this, but it’s unheard of for him to not quickly denounce such statements in favor of the party line.
I just checked there, and they have not renamed it, nor have they listed the new name as a recognized alternate name.
Whether of not an executive order can override the government agency specifically granted that authority by congress is of no concern to them. By law, the Board of Geographic Names is the final authority on geographic names. If they don’t go along with this change, then the Trump admin would have to file an inter-government lawsuit about it.
A plausible guess, but the article says he’s on the website’s board of directors.
