The Treaty is often cited in discussions regarding the role of religion in United States government for a clause in Article 11 of the English language American version which states that "the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion."
Signed by founders, we don't even have to wonder what their thoughts were. Leave your shitty religion out of government.
I have no problem with Christians. I have a problem with whatever GOP-supporting assholes call Christian, because it is nothing like what Jesus would teach/do.
What drives me crazy is the rationalizations around this they make when even without it, its clear most of the founders were rationalists. There is a reason jefferson rewrote the gospels without the supernatural as a morality tale.
I am completely surprised that any GOP congress critters broke from the party line and voted against impeachment for reasonable reasons like a lack of any reason to impeach.
The stunning part is that they let it go to a vote without having whipped the necessary numbers.
They could have drawn it out with hearings, but they thought they had it in the bag and that their whole caucus was bought into the BS narrative they're trying to to drive leading into this election year.
You know, after I've testified to the malpractice of the business I gave the better part of my life to. The first thing I'd like to do is shoot myself in my truck in a hotel parking lot.
Jesus fucking christ. How terribly overt.
Whistleblowers have tremdous balls. Really hope this is properly investigated, but know how epstein shit went.
"The Columbus Police Department was conducting a welfare check on a subject following a report of potential self-harm," Nebraska State Patrol said in a press release.
"We made sure that the subject did not chicken out of his threat."
If you are someone who is actively preventing others from rescuing people who are fucking drowning, you need to 1) go to prison, and from there 2) really rethink your life choices.
In this case anti-union propaganda Mercedes flooded them with. Which paired really well with their usual right-wing diet anyway. Voting against their interests as their bosses demand.
In a statement to The New York Times, Alito did not dispute the image. He said he had no involvement in its flying, saying the flag was placed by his wife Martha-Ann Alito, who had been offended by a neighbor's yard signs.
"I had no involvement whatsoever in the flying of the flag," Justice Alito said in an emailed statement to the New York Times. "It was briefly placed by Mrs. Alito in response to a neighbor's use of objectionable and personally insulting language on yard signs."
The Times reported that the yard signs were anti-Donald Trump.
Well that certainly dispels any sense that he might be biased. It's just that his family feels personally insulted when someone criticizes Donald Trump.
A lot of people blame climate change on fossil fuels but they are only one part of climate change... Forests cool the atmosphere and removing vasts of it to build cities cause the climate in the region to become hotter. Do it enough and then it spreads all over. California was bulldozed for land development and the Red woods dug their roots up to a mile into the earth to find water when the water supply dried up. Climate change and all we do to cause it, causes all the problems.
