Is it okay if I say that Ayman's comments about Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris being "deeply flawed" sounded incredibly sexist?
Neither was nearly as flawed as her opponent.
They were superb potential candidates but for sexist viewpoints like Ayman's that reinforce a double standard.

These 8 assholes are the most corrupt fuckwads imaginable
It’s outrageous that our elected officials would rather funnel our money overseas, to places like Argentina and Hungary, than invest in healthcare or help families put food on the table through SNAP.
How do they justify this?
What is wrong with them?

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

Trump disgraced Arlington.
More important is to remember that Veteran's Day is not a day to remember the fallen heroes. It's supposed to be a day to celebrate the service of all the armed forces' members - past and present.
Memorial Day is for remembering and honoring those who sacrificed all.

Trump wants to give $2,000 to every American, compensation for the prices he's raised via his ad hoc/likely illegal tariffs, paid for by - uh, tariffs.
Assume that's limited to 267,000,00 citizen-adults.
The cost is $534bn
His tariffs bring in ~$30million/mo.-$360m/yr.
That's a $174bn shortfall
