... land of the meek, home of the lame

Feeble - that is an odd spelling of “complicit”

Every GOP congressperson/senator has the ability to stop this but they do not by choice. They are all complicit in supporting the presidents illegal actions.

Times like this make me wish Death Note wasn't just fiction.

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 3 points 19 hours ago

Same here. But you better pray that if does come true, the death notes don't come into the hands of some young MAGA incel asshat.

Our timeline is even stupider than the Biff timeline.

[–] Liljekonvalj@feddit.org 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's more stupid* or dumber...

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

I promised myself that I'd try my best not to argue with people on Lemmy over completely trivial things, but sometimes it can be a challenge.

[–] Logh@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago

The most stupiderp timeline

He also launched an obvious bribe engime with his crypto and no one stopped that either.

Imagine the endless headlines and stupidity if Biden had accepted this 'gift'

[–] floo@retrolemmy.com 9 points 1 day ago

They’d have impeached him over it

Qatar was trying to sell it for $250m, they just lied to trump about the value to stroke his ego. Either that or it's just another grandiose lie on his part

[–] Linktank@lemmy.today 14 points 1 day ago

Are you kidding? There's $150,000,000 worth of bugs and other surveillance materials in there for sure.

[–] Kbobabob@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Do you need to say "dollar" when there's already a $?

It reads as "400 million dollars dollar gift... " to me.

The truth is weirder. It appears the DoD had been in talks to buy the plane straight up to become Air Force One. Then Trump blurts out that it's a gift. The government of Qatar didn't want to contradict him with negotiations still ongoing. It appears it will still be purchased outright.

There's still plenty of security concerns with that plane.

Edit: Forgot to mention the implication. Trump created a scandal around this for no purpose or gain what so ever.

[–] rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I also want a source that DoD was trying to buy the plane. I haven't heard that one yet

It's end times like these I wish I believed in God.

[–] ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

IMO, it's because nobody does and just listens to their lower selves that these things happen. There have never been many believers in the West, nvm America... you have like two or three real ones like John Brown and that's it.

[–] Soulg@ani.social 2 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Um.... huge swathes of the fascist right in America do. You can't just hand wave away the bad ones and only accept the ones you like

They believe in anything but self restraint and selflessness (Law of Moses plus teachings of Jesus, at least), so how are they believers? Their trees only produce bad fruits! If I say I'm a single celled organism, does it make me so?

[–] GuyFawkes@midwest.social 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not feeble - infiltrated by traitors.

Its been rendered feeble

[–] Archangel1313@lemm.ee 8 points 1 day ago

The US government approved it.

[–] Coreidan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Feeble? Ya I mean the entire government is ran by old fucks. Of course they are feeble.
