At risk for being labeled a rage-baiting, karma farming bolshevik, I gotta know: Did having a black president who required all citizens have medical insurance break almost half the brains in America?

A regular employee would get pushed out for way less than a stroke or a month in rehab. So why do 84- year old senators get to keep running the country from a hospital bed instead of making room for new?

Pretty much all of Jackson's rivals have dropped out. He is almost certain to be declared the nominee by later this week.

Does anyone remember the nationality of the 9/11 bombers?
President Trump will now share our nuclear weapons technology with Saudi Arabia. You remember Saudi Arabia, their Public Investment Fund provided the initial $2 Billion to start Jared Kushner’s investment fund.

Why does reddit act like europe is a progressive bastion forgetting it own right wing parties are rising?
feel like people treat Europe as this bastion of progressivism, when in reality, a right-wing wave is going to happen—it has just been delayed by a couple of years. What happens if the demoracts control the country but Britain, Germany, and France are all run by their own right-wing populists?"

Does anyone else feel like the pet industry is heavily exploiting how much we love our animals? Food, vet bills, and medication prices are out of hand?
Vet charges are ridiculous, and medications are overpriced everything seems to be. I think companies are capitalizing on the trend of pets being treated like family, knowing people are willing to pay whatever it takes because they love their animals.
Even the food is a bit of a rip off.
I know what some will say " If you cant afford a pet dont have one" which is good point.
I can afford it, but I can still have a moan about it :)

Why do Catholic/Christian Americans believe Jesus would be a fan of Trump?
I've seen many people who compare Trump to Jesus, or Trump to God. Where is the justification?
One is a capitalist with questionable morals. The second is someone whose teachings emphasized radical generosity, caring for the poor, and the spiritual dangers of wealth, state-enforced wealth redistribution and government control of the economy.
So frequently I see people praise behaviors that go against the teachings of their lord and savior.
How do they reconcile?

Did anybody hear the Epic Fury casualties say " very strongly, 'We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.'" ?
I stay informed... on top of the news, yet I haven't heard any interviews of soldiers, much less "all of them", saying what Cadet Bonespurs alleges they said.
Observing the arrival of caskets of military personnel just killed in Trump's unauthorized war of choice, he just told the press "All of them said very strongly, 'We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.'"
Can anybody please provide a link to validate the POTUS' claim?
Anybody? Buehler...Buehler...Buehler?

Why are Candidates for Governor asked if they want to abolish ICE?
What's the point of asking a question like that? A State governor has no power or authority to abolish a Federal Agency anyway, so it's completely irrelevant to the position they're running for. Same with when they're asked for their opinion on Israel/Palestine. In what way is that at all relevant for a State governor who has no power to do anything outside of their State? Seems like all these positions do is highlight controversial talking points that have no relation to the position they're running for. Same with the Mayor and other local politicians. Why are they asked about things they have literally no power to affect or influence?

Self-Identified Progressives and Leftists of Reddit, who is someone you want to run for President? And do you think they would win a Primary or just win the whole thing as an independent?
When similar questions are asked, I see a lot of negative talk about the current likely candidates like Newsom, Harris, or Buttigieg, but I would like to see suggestions of who TO look at and not who to avoid for those of us on the left (of American politics, save your breath).

Are Americans really struggling in this economy?
Record housing prices, record new vehicle prices, expensive groceries, gas and oil prices because of conflict elevated. Are most families really hard on money today or is it not that bad?

We all know that Donald Trump responds very positively to flattery. Why aren’t there any reporters that use this to get him to answer tough questions?
“Mr. President, as we all know, the mainstream media has been against you from day one, and that’s probably because you’re the epitome of the American dream and they hate that. For others who you want to inspire to follow on your footsteps, how much has your company’s net worth gone up since you’ve been in office?”
