I Like the Titanic Reference

A normal president and a normal political party would be horrified by this turn of events. They would realize that they made a bad call and that it was time for a major course correction; they would start taking warnings from health experts seriously.

Hell No
https://repub.li/michigan-house-passes-human-microchipping-legislation/
“Microchipping has been brought up in many conversations as companies across the country are exploring cost-effective ways to increase workplace efficiency. While these miniature devices are on the rise, so are the calls of workers to have their privacy protected.”
Workers privacy will not be respected. The data that is collected will be the next major breach we read about in the papers.
This will absolutely happen:
"With everyone walking around with a unique identifier, privacy is out the window. It will be very difficult to prevent 3rd parties from reading the unique identifier on the tag. This means anyone could track you. Stores could track your entry and exit, showing you targeted ads."

Way out of line

I consider myself very Progressive, but this is sheer lunacy. If you really feel that way about the United States of America oh, maybe you should go.
Police State Cracks Down

The ACLU publicized a list obtained by privacy activist Mike Katz-Lacabe of 579 investigations in which the Milwaukee Police Department used its Harris Corp. Stingrays, including it in the ACLU court filings. “Evidence of police hiding their Stingray use from defense attorneys, judges, and the public is widespread,” the ACLU stated.
Shocking

Surprising that the study funded by the ride hail companies shows the highest hourly pay.
Extreme Gaslighting
https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/505924-judd-gregg-the-coming-biden-coup
Never had I read an article where the author is either to lazy to really did into his opposition, or is just flat out does not care. This whole article is one giant attempt at gas lighting the readers. Let's break this down:
It really gets going when he writes this:
"Promoting and promulgating — not merely accepting — the massive protests that have occurred in some cities, even when they have led to lawlessness, looting, riots and declarations of autonomy."
- yes, because the outcome in one city is what the whole progressive movement is about. Totally wrong on the progressives to demand equal treatment under the law, the end to systemic racism, and an out of control police force.
Next:
"Searching out and destroying unbelievers in pursuit of a politically correct version of history, and doing so with a zeal that would have made Cotton Mather blush."
Kind of sounds like Trump and his loyalty oath.
Then:
"Removing statues of historical figures that are deemed unacceptable based on today’s parameters of social justice."
- Yes, because I am sure Black America really responds to statues of former confederate generals, and do not care to see any of their own history represented in this artistic form.
He calls the progressives a "fanatical group". Which again, just sounds like the small number of trump hold outs left. Look at how fanatical they are, please?
"This is about power. All major elections are."
You are upset that maybe some Democrats have learned the republican lesson from 2010? They are determined to not let that happen again? For a republican to come out and say this is, almost the largest of hypocrisies.
Judd Gregg has his head firmly planted in a dark place, and just refused to remove it.

Definitely Bad Apples Here
Undercover St. Louis cop says colleagues beat him 'like Rodney King'; describes attack as 'free for all'

The texts are the just the worst. This attitude is nowhere close to protecting and serving the public. Police should not prep for war.

So much for Hoax
https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-did-pay-extremists-attack-american-soldiers-taliban-sources-say-2020-7
Taliban commanders have confirmed that Russia has offered financial and material support to its members in exchange for attacking US forces in Afghanistan.
Liberal Ideas are the threat
Neat little article:
God forbid that a banker pay a fair amount in taxes, or a corporattion for that matter.
Heaven help us if Joe wins, and suddenly things start happening to help poor people and the rich people maybe pay a little more to help out.
What a terrible world that would be.
