Diverse Motivations: People enter politics for a wide range of reasons:
Passion for public service: Many genuinely want to improve society and help others.
Belief in their ideas: They hold strong convictions about how the world should be governed and want to implement their vision.
Desire for influence: Politics offers a platform for power and the ability to shape policy.
Career path: For some, it's a chosen profession with opportunities for advancement.
Success in Other Fields: Many successful politicians have excelled in other areas before entering politics, such as business, law, education, and the military.
Finding Fulfillment: Politics can be a deeply fulfilling career for those who find meaning in advocating for change and serving the public good.
It's important to avoid generalizations and recognize the diverse motivations and experiences of individuals who choose ... less

I also heard that citrus fruit is not being picked for the same reason. Over 80% of the fruit pickers are migrants and illegals and the numbers are probably the same for vegetable pickers. It was easy for Trump to start mass deportations but he has no plan on how to solve the problems it creates. Cheers!
Maybe this.
Roses are red and violets are blue. But I wiped feces on the Capital walls so for the pardon I love you. XOX Salute.
Cheers and happy weekend!

Here's why: * Reduced Environmental Pressure: * Resource Consumption: Fewer people would consume fewer resources like food, water, and energy. This could lead to decreased deforestation, reduced pollution, and a lower demand for raw materials. * Waste Production: A smaller population would generate less waste, including plastic, industrial waste, and household garbage. This could lessen the strain on landfills and reduce pollution in the environment. * Habitat Destruction: With less human activity, there would be less encroachment on natural habitats, allowing ecosystems to recover and biodiversity to rebound. * Climate Change Mitigation: * Reduced Emissions: A smaller human population would generally result in lower greenhouse gas emissions from transportation, industry, and agriculture. This could slow down the rate of climate change. * Potential for Ecological Recovery: * Regen... less

And added - "Zelenskyy was fighting a much bigger entity, much bigger, much more powerful - he shouldn’t have done that, because we could have made a deal."
A month or so ago Russia rejected Trump’s cease fire plan – so how can Trump say they would of listened to him back then. Cheers and happy weekend!

She used the phrase to describe "half" of the supporters of her opponent, Republican nominee Donald Trump, saying they're "racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic". The next day, she expressed regret for "saying half", while insisting that Trump had deplorably amplified "hateful views and voices".
The Trump campaign repeatedly used the phrase against Clinton during and after the 2016 presidential election. Many Trump supporters adopted the "deplorable" moniker for themselves in reappropriation. Some journalists and political analysts questioned whether this speech played a role in the election's outcome. In her 2017 book What Happened, Clinton herself said that her comments on the "basket of deplorables" were a factor in her el... less

Here's a breakdown of some key points: * Shared Objective Reality: * Science strives to uncover objective truths about the universe. * These truths, like the laws of physics or the chemical composition of water, are generally considered to be shared across individuals and cultures. * Scientific methods, such as experimentation and observation, aim to minimize individual biases and provide a common ground for understanding. * Subjective Experience: * While the underlying reality may be shared, our individual experiences of it are subjective. * Factors like our senses, our past experiences, our cultural backgrounds, and even our current emotional state can influence how we perceive and interpret the world around us. * For example, two people might observe the same event but have different interpretations based on their unique perspectives. * The Role of Inte... less

Instead he thought F that – Trump is going to pardon me so he took a ski trip to Canada. When he tried to leave Canada it was discovered that he entered Canada illegally – so it looks like he is going to do a bit of jail time anyway. Cheers!

She said -“Accepting the pardon would be an insult to the Capitol Police officers, to the rule of law, to our nation”.
She also said - “The J6 criminals are trying to rewrite history by saying that it was not a riot; it wasn’t an insurrection. I don’t want to be a part of their trying to rewrite what happened that day”. So I think she deserves 3 cheers. Cheers!

The prescription drug cap idea was Biden’s so Trump wants to end it out of spite.
Or Trump is getting a kick back from the drug company's so he wants to end it out of spite and greed. Cheers!

That sounds like something out of the Project 2025 playbook. Cheers!
Trump just said he will not impose his promised tariffs on Canada, Mexico or China. And I think it is because he knows it would be a war he couldn’t win. Cheers!
