The fact that this presidential immunity question is being discussed in SCOTUS makes this nation look like the land of morons. Seriously.🙄

Much of the SCOTUS is no less guilty than Trump, MAGA, and the GOP personally. It's time to hold them accountable because their crimes are on a scale that there should only be maximum penalties!

When you think #greedflation, the image that comes to mind should be #Amazon.

"Amazon now makes up about 40% of all online retail — the company started raising prices on the products it sells directly."

"Nearly 50% of sellers' revenue goes to Amazon in fees," much of which is passed on as higher prices.

This is a prime example of Monopoly rent as Corey Doctorow, @pluralistic, discussed in a recent piece.

After almost 25 years as an Amazon customer, I deleted my account. About 6 years ago, I noticed that Amazon was getting worse and worse and the much-vaunted service had almost disappeared.

When I wanted to rent Dune 2, I had to pay a price of 17.90 Euro. I am finally fed up. 17.90 Euro for 48 hours watching? I'm stubborn and prefer not to have something than to be boiled! If I break with someone or something once, the break is forever!

"If re-elected, Trump vows to support the right wing’s war on so-called 'anti-white' racism. The movement targeting DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) initiatives is already gaining momentum and could skyrocket under a second Trump admin."

“ 'I think there is a definite anti-white feeling in this country, and that can’t be allowed either,' Trump told TIME when asked about his supporters who believe anti-white racism is a bigger problem than anti-Black racism."

I grew up in the Rhine-Main area. There were military bases everywhere and so the Americans became my friends, some were like my family. I almost only had contact with African Americans, hardly any white soldiers. Most white soldiers were always drunk or stoned. I played chess with my friends and listened music, and they watched over me so that these white bullies didn't touch me, because when they were drunk you weren't safe from them.

When other countries were introduced in my school, and we learned about their history, we had illustrated books that showed many views. What shocked me: A picture where there were two drinking water fountains. One said “white” and the other “colored”. The drinking water fountain for “white” people was very high quality and surrounded by marble, and the one for “colored” looked more like a cheap drinking trough for cows or horses. I asked myself, is this supposed to be USA?

I may no longer be able to make much of a difference in my life, but today I was able to learn again what I had forgotten.

It is important to fight for those who are not yet able to, unless they are too young or not even born yet.

We all have some problems in life, and so it is very easy to focus only on them and forget that we are part of a community.

President Barack Obama had a slogan:

“Yes We Can”!

These trolls are recruited very specifically, and sociopaths are always suitable for such tasks. A person with compassion could not meet the requirements. Who else could make up a lie about pictures of seriously injured or dead children? A person who feels empathy could not do that, but for a sociopath this is no obstacle.

When they took away women's rights, I kept quiet; I wasn't a woman. When they locked up the LGBTQIA+, I kept quiet; I wasn't LGBTQIA+. When they came for all the non-white people, I kept quiet because I was white. When they came for me, there was no one left to protest.

When I was younger, I was in the fire and rescue service, and so I got to know a lot of police officers. In this time there were almost only decent police officers, and they would have arrested such a brutal thug immediately. I value our legal system, and I know that one should follow the legal process, but in such a case the health of the attacked always takes priority! This brutal thug has lost all rights, because he has dishonored himself, our legal system and the uniform!

kalfatermann,

@fkamiah17

I hope there are tons of criminal charges! These brutal thugs have no place in the police and every decent police officer has to endure scolding and contempt for this. I hope those brutal thugs lose their jobs and are sentenced to heavy fines and compensation. From now on, their families have to be ashamed of having such low creature in their family. The children of such brutal thugs should be brought to safety, because at some point they will act out at home too.

This is not just sad, it is a crime against a person's dignity, against the right to develop freely without being reprimanded by others. Essentially, it is a war against a person's heart and soul. An injustice that is second to none! If you get hit by a car and suffer, it usually goes away at some point, but being attacked and belittled in many ways every day is torture!

Can there be even just one excuse for Trump's lies? We now know that around 850,000 people in the USA have died because of his lies, people who would have had a chance if he had been honest even once and faced up to his responsibilities. But Trump permanently lied and indulged in his hobbies and, of course, golf. Around 850,000 people had to die so that Trump could play golf? For me, Trump is not a human being, because a piece of shit has no heart!

African mercenary is taught the dangers of firing the rocket launcher. I give him a 3% chance of surviving his deployment in Ukraine.

African mercenary is taught when to not fire the anti-tank rocket launcher (it might be an MRO Borodach). Russian Instructor (RI) 1: Tell him simply. Tell him simply, I'm saying. RI 1: Look, prince, if there is a wall behind you, if there is an obstacle or your trench, don't shoot. You'll kill everyone. Understood? Look. RI 2: So the wall will stand like this behind, like that. No. Over there. RI 1: Look, prince. Prince, look at me. If there's a wall, an obstacle, your man behind you, you don't shoot. Fire comes out from behind, a jet stream. It will burn your own if you shoot. Got it?

And when your heart is racing in an extreme situation, these things are often forgotten because the training was far too short. The so-called double safety device is also often removed or is not even present in the model. One nervous finger and your comrades are history. There is nothing more dangerous than poorly and hastily trained military forces.
