I know she gets a lot of attention, but she is certainly asking the right questions here:



She's absolutely fantastic and a breath of fresh air. You know she's making waves when all the GOP big hitters and press are coming for her. Her marginal tax rate idea is brilliant and she was a big voice in opposing Amazon heading to NY too.

Yes she will have the old slip along the way but she really is for the people
 
Man, I wasn't raised here but my son most likely will be and this carry on saddens me.
I can't get my head around the idea that there is a pledge of allegiance, even if optional.
I can't get my head around cops arresting kids in school.
And it all ends up in a lawsuit, depressing stuff.

The wacky overly-patriotic rituals of this country still unsettle me

National anthem at sports of every level is excessive.
Flags flying left, right and centre like some sort of contest.
Making young children swear the pledge daily is very odd too.
 
This should probably go in the far right thread, but since we're talking about Tucker and all. WaPo asks where these people get radicalized? Tucker's show is certainly one place.


Likely that Trump had been briefed about this arrest before he tweeted out the below


Trumps repeated attacks on opponents and the press are very concerning,
Prosecutors said that on 17 January, Hasson began compiling a spreadsheet of prominent people “consistent with the types of people who Breivik identifies as ‘traitors’ and targets for an attack”.

Many on the list have also been frequent subjects of abuse from Republicans including Trump. The list included “poca warren”, which prosecutors said was an apparent reference to senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts. Trump has nicknamed Warren “Pocahontas” for her claim to have distant native American heritage.

I think that tweet was in reference to the article they wrote about Trump trying to meddle in the investigations in the SDNY and the Special Counsel.
