Lmao who does this?? "I couldn't let it past without memorializing its beauty, it's majesty" are you serious?

Just saying, my bf is in the Air Force and he thinks this kind of shit is absolutely gross. Don't thank him for his service, don't buy his meal, don't put on a show for your weird nationalistic hard on.

The people who do these things are the exact kind of people whose very vote would damage the veterans and service members they claim to care so much about.

 

Man, Twitter's timeline algorithm can make an out of context Trump tweet sound that much stupider. Scrolling through my feed and there's just...this.

 

I can’t tell if he’s more sensitive than he is guilty

 

The Fake News Media hurt his feelings

 

Someone on twitter just asked me if people under 35 are vested enough in the GND to declare war on China and India because otherwise it’s just an excuse to implement socialism in America and not actually about the climate.

Soooo yeah.

 

I see twitter is going as well as it ever does this morning.

 

Lol Republican ranking member saying thisbhearing for Whittaker is just a ‘character assassination’...and now he’s whining about how he’s in the minority on the committee so no one listens (I guess because, apparently, the majority is supposed to do what the minority wants)

Fuck these people so much.

 

Apparently it’s “offensive” to imply that Trump May have put Whittaker in charge of DOJ to help him.

No seriously fuck the GOP so fucking much, i hate them so so much.

 

ACAB

 

Omg this mother fucker is insisting on a roll call vote to adjourn the hearing...

FUCK THESE PEOPLE

 

Let’s keep taxing teachers, who are notoriously underpaid, but stop taxing the notoriously overpaid cops.

 

It's not like our tax dollars buy tear gas for cops never mind

 

Teachers also have to endure working in a combat zone

 

Lol Matt Whitaker is bad at this

 

Nadler going at Whitaker for the pointless “well the President might want to assert privilege in the future” bullshit

 

Holy shit they’re going in on the CNN/Justice Department conspiracy theory about being there for Stone’s arrest

 

By they I mean the GOP of course

 

If this was an 80s movie, Nancy would be a high school principal who prohibits the seniors from having their own prom

 

Then what's the point

 

Just wanted to respond to this. Here's a couple of article that explain a bit about our challenges and failure to commit:

Why Can't the United States Build a High-Speed Rail System? - CityLab

A generational failure: As the U.S. fantasizes, the rest of the world builds a new transport system « The Transport Politic

We are not even talking just transportation in our major cities - I use a train to get into NYC and it still takes 1hr 20 minutes to do it.
