    You're a historian. You've got it.

     

    Who drew the Middle East lines post WWII?

     

    And who meddled with oil efforts from post-WWII to today (non Mid-East countries, obviously)

    Other than Isreal, did you mean after WWI?

    That seems to be when the real disconnect occurred.

    Not sure you have the irony in the right place. If the issue is trans representation, and one of the most prominent trans spokespeople reverses their position to pump a debunked partisan meme, it's entirely reasonable to ask Jenner why she's carrying water for a party that would prefer she remain invisible. 

     

    Just want to be clear who you think was spewing the vitriol in this hilarious situation.  

    An expected response, but from an unexpected source ... but thanks for your pov.

     

    You evidently didn't read the thousands of replies to any X user that posted an Easter vs TDV

    It's funny how RFK Jrs most ardent supporters are people who have no intention of voting for RFK Jr. 

     

    Pete can and did run circles around Biden (and the rest) but establishment Ds wanted no part of that so they squashed him.

     

    Any sources for the quoted above?

    13%-15% isn't the threshold. 

     

    https://www.secretservice.gov/protection/leaders/campaign-2024

     

    "Whether the candidate is an independent or third-party candidate for President polling at 20% or more of the Real Clear Politics National Average for 30 consecutive days;"

     

     

     

    Yes thanks. We discussed this before. Exceptions can and have been made.

     

    I do find it weird that 3rd party candidates are held to a higher standards than Ds or Rs

     Why do you post Tweets without looking any of it up and/or sharing what you found?

     

    It took me about 2 minutes to find the first thing is just made up bulls#!t. You can see in the graph the household # is higher. (And it’s supposed to be higher because it includes farm related jobs, while the other doesn’t).

    Here is some good info about the BLS and current state of employment.

    You are correct. I didn't look at the chart you provided. Thanks for the link.

     

    I do see there are no community notes or contradicting links. Any thoughts on RFKs other two points. I have seen both of those claims from others.

    Isn't it a good thing to treat people as individuals and not give them a pass because they belong to a certain group? Surely you're not advocating for identity politics.

    I dunno man...but it's hilarious they dog Jenner, on Trans Visibility Day, cuz Caitlin is conservative. Those same folks were spewing vitriol in the Easter vs Visibility day...lol

    I've read the past few pages and I have no idea why people who identify as Christian would have a problem with this.

     

    The Jesus you claim to follow would be the first person inviting the people you hate to Easter dinner.

     

    Y'all need to read Matthew 7:21-23 again. If you truly believe Jesus is God, he's speaking about you.

     

    Happy Easter.

    I am a failed Catholic, lapsed Lutheran, sometimes Evangelical agnostic.

    Not sure if you were referring to me but wanted to set the stage.

     

    And Happy Easter.

    Probably would've gone differently if you and him and others didn't start it off with the silly erroneous claims that Biden chose Easter as the day for this.

     

    Who cares whether it was chosen as a direct affront?  It is on Easter,  is it not.

    Am I? You're the one that keeps posting this stuff. I didn't post some rage bait about an LGBTQ day or bring up Pontius Pilate.

    It's not rage bait...it's just the same sad, tonedeaf bullsh*t from this Admin.

    Idk... You're the one that seems triggered by a reoccurring day that just happens to fall on Easter Sunday this year. And Pilate killed Jews all the time, should we be doing that then since we shouldn't have a day of recognition?

    You're really trying hard today.
