Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Florida lawmakers sound alarm over plans ‘to send pregnant women & children’ to ‘Alligator Alcatraz’101·9 days agoI think you’re the one who needs to work on your reading comprehension. The
airquotes around “okay” clearly indicate that they think it is NOT okay.
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Every major hospital in Louisiana is warning Speaker Mike Johnson and the rest of Louisiana’s congressional delegation that Medicaid cuts “would be historic in their devastation"8·16 days agoSure, but he’s Baptist, so he doesn’t want more Catholics either.
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Supreme Court lets Trump administration resume deportations of immigrants to countries other than their own34·22 days agoThe most straightforward one is from Leviticus (one of the books that has a bunch of laws for the Israelites, including stuff like “don’t wear mixed fabrics” and rules that evolved into kosher rules, along with stuff that’s cited for “don’t be gay” (though a lot of that comes from Paul’s letters too)):
Lev 19:33-34 “When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.”

Literally no Democrats voted for him…
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•BREAKING: Tucker Carlson Blasts Trump as ‘Complicit’ in Iran Strikes as He Posts ‘Final Newsletter Before All-Out War’31·1 month agoIt’s ambiguous but I did not interpret it as Trump posting the newsletter.

Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump Is Getting Rid of His Tesla After Musk Broke His Heart112·1 month agoHe’s literally not allowed to. Becoming president means you’re not allowed to drive (on regular roads) ever again, even after you leave office.

Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Roseanne Embarrasses Herself With Pro-Trump Rap Video20·6 months agoYou know he was playing a character, right? That wasn’t “conservative comedy”, it was just satire.
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Flags in New York's Nassau County not lowered to half-staff following Jimmy Carter's death14·6 months agoMan the Kissinger bottle must have aged really well
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Elon Musk Denied in Effort to Move Case to Federal Court61·9 months agoPress X to doubt
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•‘What’s he confessing to?’ Trump’s Mike Johnson ‘secret’ draws Electoral College concerns14·9 months agoBut if the House decides the election, it’s not by Reps, each state makes a vote. And there are more R states than D states, so it will absolutely go to Trump.
The more jobs that are unfilled (a “tighter” job market) means that employers have to raise wages to attract employees. It’s pretty common knowledge in tech that the fastest way to a raise is to switch jobs. More jobs being available is good for workers.
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Republicans Tell Trump That Elon Musk’s Super PAC Is Blowing It7·9 months agoWow we really should make !murderedbywords a thing…
(Yes, also !communitiesashashtags)
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•NRA Chief Doug Hamlin Once Tortured a Cat to Death10·9 months agoFor some reason I read this headline as “NPR chief” and it was legitimately shocking to me that NPR would be run by someone so actively sadistic.
It being the leader of the NRA is much less shocking.
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Why conservatives get suspended more than liberals on social media6·9 months ago“Free speech” does not mean free from consequences.
I really dislike this phrasing because it does mean freedom from consequences, but only from the government, not private actors like these companies or the general public. The sentiment should really be “free speech does not mean freedom from social backlash” but I know that’s not as catchy…
(Also, yes, free speech does have limits (e.g. hate speech, ‘fighting words’, etc).)
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Senate will vote Wednesday to avoid government shutdown, Schumer says3·10 months agoThis isn’t the debt ceiling, this is the government funding bills, aka what they are budgeting for departments (that will then eventually require the debt ceiling to be raised because it’s still a deficit)
Rekhyt@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Jill Stein schooled on House of Representatives in brutal "Breakfast Club" interview141·10 months agoI don’t think anyone would fault you for saying there are 435 members of the house, especially because that number is also wrong (there are six additional non-voting members).
If she had answered more correctly than the number of voting seats I wouldn’t have a problem with it…
I don’t care that he has no rizz, I care that he continually takes credit for other people’s accomplishments that he had no hand in, and when he does take an active role, the output of those people becomes actively worse.
But, I suppose you did sum that up in “insufferable jackass”
