The mainstream media is owned by billionaires. The real question is why you expect them to care about Project 2025?

The article's pretty graphic, and yikes, I hope they go for attempted murder. The shooter fired THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD at kids just sitting in their car and offering no threat. Further, the injuries to the kid's face were pretty substantial.

I wouldn't hold your breath waiting on that, honestly.

Agreed. The headline made it sound like the deceased person was injected or something.

Attorneys for the plaintiffs argued that six of the Trump Train drivers violated state and federal law. Lawyers for the defendants said they did not conspire against the Democrats on the bus and that their actions are protected speech.

I don't know how, given the harassing and objectionable temperament of Trump supporters, that anyone could argue this with a straight face. How is it even a question that this was a violent incident? Because they didn't fire a gun at the bus?

“As young people, we’re poised to inherit a world that needs thoughtful, informed leadership more than ever. But if we’re not even willing to watch a debate

I think it's fair to say that Gen Z has seen enough of both major parties to know definitively that neither of the two leaders up for the job are going to do anything meaningful to change their lives in a positive way. Their entire lives they've watched presidents of both parties promise to raise wages, improve health care and education, and spend less on war. Instead, they've watched both of their parents working full-time jobs while still finding themselves unable to provide for the family's needs and education.

And it isn't lost on them that when money for a war or corporate bailout needs to happen, it happens overnight, every single time. During COVID the government even made a few trillion we didn't have appear out of thin air overnight.

It's unreasonable at this point to expect Gen Z to care. Why waste a badly-needed day's work to vote when you have observed for your entire life that things stay consistent regardless of who's elected?

It really does suck that something so heartbreaking is just business as usual in this country.

I must say that I think the city government makes a reasonable point: those of use who want to offer foreign visitors safety and dignity in American must also demand that our government takes responsibility for helping them relocate to a town in which is expecting their arrival and has been aided in making that arrival successful.

Agreed. It just makes sense.

But there are lots of things we do differently than the rest of the world for no good reason. That's America for you.

My biggest worry with all this attention on Springfield, Ohio is that some chucklehead neckbeard in podunk nowhere is likely already planning a mass shooting there.

It made me very sad to read this when I woke up today. As if Elijah's death wasn't horrifying enough, the paramedics who drugged him to death (and any paramedic who seemingly wants to do the same to another person in the future) now have a get out of jail free card.

Compared to the US, very hefty.

Is it enough, though? I can't say if it is or not, but my gut tells me it's not enough.

That's wonderful news to read.
