    January 6 Select Committee

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    That's quite a spin. I mean it's not hearth shattering that right wing nuts Hannity and Ingraham used their connections to try to get Trump to make a public

    January 6 Select Committee

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I guess there's several ways to look at the texts depending on the spin you want to take. There's the idea that they didn't approve of Trump's behavior that day, urged him to make a quick...

    Even Trump condemned the violence.

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    We all knew he lost, so I don't think we thought that this would benefit Trump in getting him back in office. I thought it would be a protest, they would have their say and that would be that....

    January 6 Select Committee

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I will let Beerman speak for himself but I'm wondering where you're coming up with this. Beerman quoted me and agreed that Trump acted irresponsibly that day. He seems to not want to buy into the...

    January 6 Select Committee

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Trump more than likely didn't commit any crimes. But he was in charge that day and showed extremely poor judgment in my opinion. That people are declining to cooperate is interesting....

    It might be just a coincidence that weather-related disasters have increased in the last 50 years. It's just the Earth doing her thing like she always has and we humans just happen to be here and...

    I don't know what you're talking about so clearly my post wasn't worded well. I was talking about solutions to the daycare shortage that Beerman said Republicans should address and I said one way they...

    I have a friend that can gift me WaPo articles when my free views are used up, and I know some of you won't be able to read this. But I'll quote some of the highlights. Basically the article accuses...

    True and while things have improved, inequality results in higher infant mortality rates.

    That's interesting. But was it only in those years that show birth rates higher for lower incomes? Is it lack of contraception for the higher birth

    It would be interesting to find out why those that can least afford children have the highest birthrate, but they also get the most public benefits that go up with each child. Also to go back to...

    Here's some data but really your second paragraph seems to be spinning what he meant, but I'll let him speak for himself. Of course we've already pointed out that rising wages is eroded through...

    Childcare for lower incomes has always been an issue. Most work it out with their relatives or parents. I understand that not everyone has this kind of option and must go on public assistance...

    Biden's plan doesn't seem to address that issue. But it also creates an opportunity to solve that problem. I know republicans wouldn't want government run day care centers as a solution. I would in...

    I appreciate being pointed out that the Biden plan for childcare doesn't raise taxes. I was expressing my frustration as a heavily taxed middle class person (with no dependents) that the burden to...

    I'm not sure I like the Biden plan. Like most plans to help the poor it might help the poor and the middle class will bear the burden of taxation. Also the supply and demand economics will...

    I wonder if that's part of the "great resignation" that people with established jobs quit for a competitor offering more. During the recovery from the Great Recession I remember this not being the...

    No not everyone believed. The cult of Trump who believes in conspiracy theories made up some right away because "patriots" would never do this. I would venture to say most people took it at...
