read one of your posts and you should know who the pothead is
We both smoke weed.

Do you think this is a bad thing or worse/better than booze?
One is just as bad as the other

Trump’s EPA Pick Flunks Basic Science Quiz at Confirmation Hearing
Zeldin had limited experience working on environmental policy as a congressman and, as he noted throughout the hearing, no scientific or climate-related background.

Whitehouse continued, asking Zeldin whether the Earth has hit “1.5 degree risk threshold,” adding: “Why is that important?”

Zeldin, who is expected to lift regulations protecting the environment, demurred that he would “defer to the talented scientists to be able to provide that advice on an ongoing basis.”

In fact, the world did hit that threshold of warming, which signals an increased risk of climate-related disasters, for the first time ever in 2024.

And neither are bad if used in moderation. Weed also has medicinal value while booze does not.

Bessent a neo-liberal who represents the wealthy. His answer to everything is cut taxes on the wealthy and cut social spending that supports the working class.

Bessett is 100% correct. The fed min wage shouldn’t be changed. It should be ZERO. Each state should be able to set their own minimum wage. States’ rights. The rest is a bunch of leftist waaah by Chris Murphy about tax cuts for the rich, and cutting Medicaid (another LBJ Great Society program which is bankrupting this country), waah, waah, blah, blah.

"The fed min wage shouldn’t be changed" and "It should be ZERO" are conflicting statements.

Are you going to stay on the states' rights bandwagon if trump and his MAQA yahoos in Congress attempt to pass a federal ban on abortion? Or is your "belief" in states' rights hypocritically selective?

Houndie has less of a problem with alcohol then hegswith.
The problem is that he's a fucking halfwit starting his new job by focusing on trivial shit like "wokeness" and "warrior ethos" and women in combat. Small mind with a small picture.

A natural 3rd Lt. who was already way peter-principled at the rank of Major.
You matter. Unless you multiply yourself by c squared. Then you energy.

So what’s the difference between a leftist waaah and right wing populism? Other than the left seems to understand income inequality and neo-feudalism and supply side economics a little better?

Take all the time you need with this one.
