He was just being a sulky boy because nobody would let him nuke that hurricane.
Yes, it’s far better to help Trump win. You know, the wanna be dictator who has already said he wants Israel to hurry up and get it over with. Yeah, that makes loads of sense.
Check that bank account for rubles.
Faith is less than nothing when weighed against observable, measurable fact. Religion should never be allowed to overrule science.
The law requires certain time frames for comment periods and he cannot just ignore those. He also cannot just fire anyone he wants. That is one of the things Project 2025 includes. Giving the president to fire any federal employee at will is a bad idea.
The only immediate thing he might do is issue an executive order making Marijuana a very low priority offense and telling DoJ to direct limited enforcement and prosecution resources elswhere.
Maybe. When and if this silly bint gets Trump elected he will happily sell Israel enough incendiary weapons to vaporize every Palestinian alive.
Fascinating. I gather there is still a bit of debate on the topic but it sounds like a great theory. Thanks! I love learning new things.
Now branded as “Make America Healthy Again!,” Mr. Kennedy’s health freedom movement is preoccupied with instances where the government is supposedly colluding with industry to make people sick. The prevalence of chronic disease, America’s declining life expectancy, vaccine mandates: These are all, in Mr. Kennedy’s view, not just public health conundrums but also elite conspiracies.
This reminds me of how people during the Black Plague in Europe used to kill cats because they thought that the plague was caused by witches and cats were associated with witches. They probable made things worse because the cats, had they not been killed, would have been killing rodents that carried the fleas that transmitted the plague to people. Likewise, getting rid of vaccine mandates is sure to increase chronic disease and reduce life expectancy.
Rescheduling is a lot more complicated than that. The president can not just wave a wand and make it legal. Congress could pass a law doing so, but they are not going to do that. The other way is via the Controlled Substances Act which is, to put it mildly, is a cluster fuck.
In a nutshell, administrative rescheduling begins when an actor—the Secretary of Health and Human Services or an outside interested party—files a petition with the Attorney General or he initiates the process himself. The Attorney General forwards the request to the HHS Secretary asking for a scientific and medical evaluation and recommendation, as specified by 23 USC 811(b-c). HHS, via the Food and Drug Administration conducts an assessment and returns a recommendation to the Attorney General “in a timely manner.” The Attorney General, often through the Drug Enforcement Administration, conducts its own concurrent and independent review of the evidence in order to determine whether a drug should be scheduled, rescheduled, or removed from control entirely—depending on the initial request in the petition.
If the Attorney General finds sufficient evidence that a change in scheduling is warranted he then initiates the first stages of a standard rulemaking process, consistent with the Administrative Procedures Act. During rulemaking and consistent with Executive Order 12866, if the White House—through the Office of Management and Budget’s Office of information and Regulatory Affairs—determines the rule to be “significant,” it will conduct a regulatory review of the proposed rule—a very likely outcome given the criteria in the EO.
FYI, Biden already initiated this process to reschedule marijuana in 2022. At this point, it has been reviewed and the Attorney General has submitted a rule change to the DEA. They will have a public comment period which they will no doubt drag out as long as possible. If approved, marijuana will be reclassified at the same level as steroids (schedule III). It is disappointing that Biden only requested changing the schedule rather than descheduling it all together. Not ideal, but a hell of a lot better than now.
Anger, fear, and hate are the language his followers speak. They wouldn’t follow The Dude, they’d follow Walter, just exchange golf for bowling and put him in a diaper.
I get what you’re saying but they really should just be pointing out that he’s not making any sense. Trump’s speeches are being treated like Nostradamus’ prophesies now. He spews a bunch of nonsense and people make up what they think it means. The guy should be in a home, not on the campaign trail and the media should make that clear to voters.
I haven’t looked lately, but the posts/comments come more frequently than that because they come in 16 hour spurts. The last time I looked anyway, the user made a point of taking an ~8 hour break our of every 24. After all a single human poster could not post around the clock for two months straight, mods would ban the account.
I guess it was gradual, but when did it become the job of journalists to try and guess what politicians mean when they make statements? Shouldn’t the meaning be made clear by the speaker? Right now it seems like its:
Trump: Speaks rambling gibberish saying something about a faucet
Journalists: “It seems like Trump is talking about the Columbia river and here’s why that is significant…”
He said he was hoping to be able to stick around long enough to vote for Kamala.
It’s not that they have nothing better to do. The cruelty is the point. They ruin lives because they like to ruin lives. It makes them feel powerful.
Have you considered listening to the pretty extensive explanations they’ve given in this comments section as to why?
I was just entertaining a notion as I lack the skills to do an analysis like you did.
As for reading the other comments here, I have read them now, and they are interesting, but when I first commented, there were no other comments here and the post stood at -3.
The same people who are downvoting you, I guess. I’m not really sure what the objection is but they are very consistent. I’ve actually wondered if someone set up some bots to downvote all the MBFC bot posts for some reason.
If a car seat is keeping him from knocking up his wife then he is doing something very, very wrong. From what I’ve heard about this guy and furniture though, I can’t say I’m really surprised.
Thank you very much for the link. Some of this is really good reading. I liked this bit.
