    We were never any different than anybody else when it comes to punishing the elite or elected officials. In days past, you just didn't hear about the dirty laundry until well...

  3. Junkieturtle liked Nwolfe35's post in the thread Sen. Bob Menendez (D) charged with taking bribes to help business cronies, Egyptian government.

    If found guilty I hope he goes to jail. It should be what we all hope for, holding those in power accountable for what they have done wrong.

  4. Junkieturtle attached a file to the thread MAGA Republicans simply cannot govern.

    That's no surprise. The MAGA politicians are mostly in it for show. It's a performance for them. They have no interest in building or governing because most have no experience...

    You must not have been to Pennsylvania since Trump's rise. This is Trump country. We have special folks who ride around in their pickup trucks adorned with Trump flags. They...

  6. Junkieturtle liked JohnHamilton's post in the thread Cowardly Trump refuses to appear at the Republican debate.

    Okay, all of issues are settled, and there is nothing to debate. Biden and Trump have all the answers and the races are over. The rest of us are sick about having to choose...

  7. Junkieturtle liked modernpaladin's post in the thread I don't know where the money is: Boston U launches inquiry into Kendi's anti-racist research center.

    Clearly a grifter. But I think theres a lot of leeway in what you can do with donated money vs public funds. Or, should be at least. If no one was coerced into giving him money...

  8. Junkieturtle replied to the thread Florida congressman's opinion on Ukrainian president's speech at the UN.

    Putin loves when folks defend his aggression in Ukraine by blaming it on Joe Biden. It's always nice to help out an imperialistic dictator.

    Electing a guy who doesn’t believe in honoring election results is bad for democracy. Seems obvious….

  12. Junkieturtle replied to the thread I want America back.

    Better build a time machine. There's no going back, only forwards into a world that isn't the same as the one you wish to go back to and will never be.

  13. Junkieturtle replied to the thread Mankind is peace-loving folk so disfavor loose cannons and GOP is such.

    The only way the Republicans would implode is if the Democrats offered a viable alternative, and they very much don't. The Republican party is not dying, and is not going anywhere.

  20. Junkieturtle replied to the thread Should civilians who carry guns be required to do so openly?.

    I'd prefer they were concealed. That way I can tell the responsible gun owners from those who just want to display them for clout. Open carry people are morons, at least those...

  25. Junkieturtle replied to the thread Is it possible to teach students about slavery in an honest way and not cause.

    Why wouldn't they teach that? Just like if they are teaching politics from the 1960s, they'd teach how the party's shifted. And hopefully in due course they will have taught...
