    Another intuitive remark/post from a Canadian.  Thank you for your valuable input.  
    1. I'm a dual citizen. Even if I weren't, I still wouldn't require your permission to post here. If you don't like what I have to say, block me
    2. I treat others with the respect they show on here, that's why I have the displeasure of writing to you directly for the first time. 

    Have a day.
    No one said you needed permission.  Let’s not get sensitive and dramatic, Ben.  I hope you are coping well. Take care of yourself. 
    Complaining on a message board about politics = being dramatic

    Storming the capitol to prevent a peaceful transfer of power = appropriate behavior


    This clarification has been helpful for many of us on planet Earth.

    Are you implying these are my beliefs?  Yet another one...
    What is your take on 1/6 then? 
    "My take" is that Donald Trump stoked an insurrection attempt.  I think he never believed what happened would actually happen.  But, once he saw it happening, he loved it.  
    And you still support that? There should be no penalty? 
    Where did I ever support that?  Are you another here who refuses to comprehend my stance?  It's bizarre.  
    I don't know honestly... Can't remember your stance but you seem kinda trumpy 
    Must be the American flag.  Saddens me that the flag is immediately related to Trump anymore.  

    I also can't stand the Qanon 2.0 behavior of the far left, which is rampant here.  
    No I didn't notice the flag. Just general shit attitude 
    So kind of the latter?  Pleasure to meet you, such a welcoming bunch around here.
    You seem to want confrontation from everyone

    The guy quotes my post from a conversation he has nothing to do with, then proceeds to tell me to stop reading his posts.  Gives me a list of options on how I can fulfill his demand.  I guess 29K posts will do that to you.
    222 posts and still nothing to say. Please tell us how ‘Murica is the “greatest nation on earth.” Or, explain what exactly the POOTWH Administration is going to do to MAGA, particularly with the clown carnival of selections at the helm.

    I am definitely implying that. 

    Do you denounce the civilians who stormed the Capitol? Do you think it was justified? Do you think they should have been jailed?

    Well then you are a fool, with all due respect. 

    Yes.  No.  Yes.  

    Are you done yet?

    Sorry, I missed your follow up initially.  You are only one of a handful who decided to attack me all day.  My apologies, your answers have been provided.

    If you need me to explain all the reasons why America is the greatest nation on earth, then that is on you.  I don't believe it requires an explanation, to be honest.  In fact that's an insult.  

    I never claimed PTWOO, or whatever you say, "is going to do to MAGA"...

    What are you talking about?

    What are you talking about? 
    Well, if I truly thought you were interested in civil discourse, I’d give you at least 10 reasons why ‘Murica isn’t “the greatest nation on earth.” I’m not sure you’re able to list 10 reasons why it is. Sorry, not sorry, to have insulted you with asking you for the reasons you believe “‘Murica is the greatest nation on earth’.”

    You seem like the type who just likes to argue.

    222 posts and still nothing to say. Please tell us how ‘Murica is the “greatest nation on earth.” Or, explain what exactly the POOTWH Administration is going to do to MAGA, particularly with the clown carnival of selections at the helm.
    If you need me to explain all the reasons why America is the greatest nation on earth, then that is on you.  I don't believe it requires an explanation, to be honest.  In fact that's an insult.  

    I never claimed PTWOO, or whatever you say, "is going to do to MAGA"...

    What are you talking about? 
    Well, if I truly thought you were interested in civil discourse, I’d give you at least 10 reasons why ‘Murica isn’t “the greatest nation on earth.” I’m not sure you’re able to list 10 reasons why it is. Sorry, not sorry, to have insulted you with asking you for the reasons you believe “‘Murica is the greatest nation on earth’.”

    Mahalo
    Please, I don't need you to explain why you hate America.  Spare me.  

    The guy said, "Sorry, not sorry".  I think it's time for me to step away from these conversations.  

    Be well, Halifax Max.

    Oh boy.  They've brought in the reinforcements.  
    What does this mean? Do I have some sort of super secret triple membership privileges or something? Do I get a special tee shirt or download code? How’s about a Benny? Do I get a Benny? Sealed?

    Who are they?

    Blinken questioned for State Department hosting in-house therapy sessions after Trump win

    Issa demanded Blinken reveal how much the sessions cost the State Department

    Published November 24, 2024 4:08pm EST

    Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., took aim at Secretary of State Antony Blinken after it was reported that the State Department held therapy sessions for employees who were upset by President-elect Trump’s election victory.

    "I am concerned that the Department is catering to federal employees who are personally devastated by the normal functioning of American democracy through the provision of government-funded mental health counseling because Kamala Harris was not elected President of the United States," Issa said in a letter to Blinken last week.

    The letter comes after a Free Beacon report earlier this month that detailed two alleged therapy sessions that were held at the State Department after Trump’s victory, with sources telling the outlet that one such instance amounted to an information "cry session."

    In another instance, an email went out to agency employees and touted a separate  "insightful webinar where we delve into effective stress management techniques to help you navigate these challenging times" after Trump’s victory, according to the report.

    "Change is a constant in our lives, but it can often bring about stress and uncertainty," the email said. "Join us for an insightful webinar where we delve into effective stress management techniques to help you navigate these challenging times. This session will provide tips and practical strategies for managing stress and maintaining your well being."

    In his letter to Blinken, Issa argued that the reported sessions were "disturbing" and that "nonpartisan government officials" should not be suffering a "personal meltdown over the result of a free and fair election."

    While the Republican lawmaker acknowledged that the mental health of the agency’s employees was important, he questioned the use of taxpayer dollars to counsel those upset about the election, demanding answers on how many sessions have been conducted, how many more are planned, and how much the sessions are costing the department.

    Issa also raised fears that the sessions could also call into question the willingness of some of the State Department's employees to carry out Trump’s new vision for the agency.

    "The mere fact that the Department is hosting these sessions raises significant questions about the willingness of its personnel to implement the lawful policy priorities that the American people elected President Trump to pursue and implement," the letter said. "The Trump Administration has a mandate for wholesale change in the foreign policy arena, and if foreign service officers cannot follow through on the American people’s preferences, they should resign and seek a political appointment in the next Democrat administration."

    The State Department did not immediately respond to a Fox News Digital request for comment.

    Oh boy, Halifax Max is heating up.  

    Let's agree to disagree.  You hate America, I don't.  Fair enough?  No reason to argue over that, and again, my stance needs no explanation.  That's a violation to even suggest it does where I come from.  
  • Better than burning down the capitol and assaulting police officers 
    Some voters hold the president accountable for inciting January 6th and think the people who stormed the Capitol should be jailed…and also voted for him again.

    allegedly…
