but back to my point, I don't think people really understand how badly state and federal regulatory autonomy have been eroded by the courts? like these articles all still exist in an alternative reality where there are still competent people in charge of environmental/consumer protection?
Goddamn, what a mean thing to say at a guy's funeral.
Aaron RuparHannity: "My President, Lindsey probably has a heavenly version of Mar-a-Lago. It may even be a little bigger. I wouldn't be surprised if he added one big beautiful ballroom and an arch somewhere on the property. Because he would want to obviously duplicate his dearest friend in life. You."
“The whole process felt very accusatory,” she added, “[as if] we were being retroactively criminalized for something the state had approved and stamped.” Normally, a driver’s license is taken away from someone who’s broken a law. But she hadn’t done anything wrong. newrepublic.com/article/2124...

What she is telling people about her faith is: it has no respect for what you think or want, or for that matter for anything about you; it leads people to assume that they know enough about you to commandeer your time, and to disdain common courtesy. Who wants a faith like that?

That Hamas doesn't have the capacity to sustain its butchery and that Israeli retribution is disproportionate is true. This still defines Hamas as butchers. And the Israelis as disproportionately ruthless. And to the extent the IDF is indifferent to civilian death, as war criminals, just like Hamas.
Hamas is the government of Gaza. Their patron in the pursuit of unmitigated violence was the Iranian regime. Netanyahu's Likud-led is the government of Israel, his patron the U.S. Not sure what ratio you require before you get to the pivotal point of refusing to tolerate either team of extremists.
