One must wonder when Americans will look at Democrats and finally ask, “how much damage do you think we will put up with before we stop you, cuz you’re awfully close…”

I wouldnt be surprise if most of the add ons here are propaganda ists being put into motion from the right. I call this particular agenda here, AGITPROP right out of Russkavillsky -- it is becoming more and more obvious. there is not one discussion here about whats actually happening, its all AGITPROP. nooooooooo fuck that. we as americans will get nothing accomplished on the border without bi partisan. and you advocate our neighbors as our enemies. Everybody is an enemy. thats straight out of russia. And using psychology today to do it -- right....

There’s a vocal part of the other political parties that makes up lies and says things about the Democratic Party to demonize us. There are Democrats who demonize other political parties, too.

All of that tension leaves a bad taste in other people’s mouths. Most of us in Wyoming — people who are reasonable and love their state and their community — aren’t interested in just butting heads and this adversarial hatemongering. Nobody likes this angry style of dehumanizing communication.

Ten days ago Joe Biden did something remarkable, and almost without precedent – he actually said no to big oil.

His administration halted the granting of new permits for building liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminals, something Washington had been handing out like M&Ms on Halloween for nearly a decade. It’s a provisional “no” – Department of Energy experts will spend the coming months figuring out a new formula for granting the licenses that takes the latest science and economics into account – bTo give you an idea, politicians beholden to the industry are using this week and next to hold hearings about natural gas in Congress. Joe Manchin – who has received more lobbying money from big oil than anyone else in Congress, and is the founder of a coal brokerage business – is convening a session in the Senate on Thursday, but on Tuesday the House began the action with a hearing before a subcommittee of the House committee on energy and commerce.

So, how many illegal aliens have you taken into YOUR home? Indeed, have you ever sponsored a legal immigrant? My husband and I have.

Expand full comment

none. thats not the point, same point you guys make over and over. just because we dont want to shoot them, or have zero understanding why they would want to llive in freedom. No we dont have the housing, we dont have housing even for ourselves. maybe we do have to change laws. but that doesnt mean I have to blame them for everything, or run around calling it an invasion, when it obviously is not that at all, or say stupid things about mexico sending us their worst etc. or for that matter complaning and complaining and then when a bill is put up before the GOP running under their desks.

How much are your medical premiums the illegals are free thanks to your taxdollars!

Expand full comment

medical premium being out of control is NOT because of immigrants. its because of pharma charging outrageous prices. thats about corporate profits.

You should read Dunning Kruger. It’ll help you understand why you don’t know how stupid you are.

I am not interested in reading conspiracy theorists. what goes on here is typical, there's nothing it says here that isnt propaganda.

Expand full comment

See? That’s why you should read the study. It was done years ago and published in Psychology Today. Far from a “conspiracy theory” which, had you any intelligence at all you’d at least have searched on it, it explains why smart people know we’re smart, but stupid people - such as yourself - don’t know they’re stupid. Once you’ve read it, I’m sure you’ll understand why you think you’re above average when you likely are in the bottom quartile.

its you who are wrongly over estimating your knowledge. kll the bill kill the bill. all this talk about putting up fences, then when a bipartisan bill comes up you scream to kill it. besides thats not whats going on here. this is all just like russian propaganda. its all overly exaggerated partisan innuendo. that does nothing but feed your hatred. of the other side. that demonizes the other and gives you an enemy.

Thanks for proving my point about your lack of intelligence by posting yet another bit of nonsense unsupported by facts or reality.

Expand full comment

it is supported by facts. these are framed after russian propaganda. absolutely. its overly exaggerated and condemns the other to the guillotine. there is no room for discussion. there is no discussion here that isnt framed by hatred for the other. its what its all about. its what politics in america has been transformed into since trump.

Here’s the study so you need not strain your capabilities trying to find it on your own.
