Insurrection Chic
Democrats now celebrate the very nullificationist tactics they once decried, embracing a neo-Confederate defiance of federal authority to undermine a president they despise.

Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

After four years of house prices doubling (and in some areas, tripling) many young people feel priced out of the American Dream of homeownership. A welfare fraud scandal in Minnesota reveals that large numbers of new arrivals aren't assimilating and are funneling our tax dollars to literal terrorist groups. An innocent woman was set on fire in Chicago as the mayor resists federal law enforcement resources to bring peace to one of our great cities. The Obamacare insurance system is buckling under its own weight. And the country is $38 trillion in debt.
Our administration is working hard on addressing all of these problems. But you know what really fires up the beltway GOP?
Not any of the above. Instead, the political class is really angry that the Trump administration may finally bring a four year conflict in Eastern Europe to a close.
I'm not even talking about the substance of their views. Much of what these people have said about the Ukraine war has been proven wrong, but whatever. We can agree to disagree.
But the level of passion over this one issue when your own country has serious problems is bonkers.
It disgusts me. Show some passion for your own country.
Lawyers: How can Lindsey Halligan’s appointment be unlawful? Does the president not have the power to appoint US Attorney’s?
A married couple from Houston, Texas made a promise to each other: if either of them was ever declared “brain dead,” they would never pull the plug; they wanted to give the other a fighting chance to come back. They immediately removed themselves from the organ-donor registry.
Two months later, their worst nightmare became reality. Francisco J. Villa, known as Jay, suffered a sudden brain aneurysm after drinking an energy drink. Doctors performed coil surgery and quickly pronounced him “brain dead.” But his wife saw clear signs of life; he was crying all weekend.
LifeGift (the organ procurement organization) repeatedly tried to pressure his wife into giving consent for organ donation, but she refused every time. They eventually obtained consent from someone else. The hospital claimed Jay had massive bleeding and that his brain stem was dead.
After his wife hired an attorney and demanded that he receive nutrients, Jay finally gained enough strength to squeeze her hand and wouldn’t let go. Tragically, he passed away that same night from ICU-acquired conditions: blood clots in his lungs, sepsis, and pneumonia.
His wife hired a private medical examiner, who found only minimal bleeding; not enough to cause severe damage, and the brain stem was neither dead nor decomposed.
While in the ICU, Jay was kept heavily sedated and paralyzed every day with:
• Fentanyl (to suppress brain activity and breathing so he would remain dependent on the ventilator)
• Propofol (to keep him in an induced coma so he couldn’t wake up)
• Nimbex (a paralytic so he couldn’t move)
His wife went on to create a Facebook awareness group called The Right to Fight where she shares stories of brain-death survivors, victims, and whistleblowers every day. Sign the petition to give your loved ones a fighting chance:
I'm sure there is some legal reason they twisted, but we all know, the swamp protects its' own as long as they are on the reservation
Is Comey completely off the hook because of statute of limitations?
No, because charges were brought before they ran out. If anything, the grand conspiracy will take them down. That is our only hope!
I swear to God nothing will ever fucking happen
