    If you meant by Median Household Income, then it's 7 of the top 25. Not as bad as you saw, but, considering there are 50 states, it's pretty fucking pathetic.

    No i never said that. I'm saying it's the media's job to report facts, without putting their political opinions within said facts.

    You surely can see there is a difference. It's not the media's job to report their "fee fees" along with headlines. Save it for the opinion sections if they feel so inclined, not my fucking front page headlines.
    Correcting a lie told by a politician isn’t being biased. It is, get this.....reporting the fucking facts.

    The US, taking a very Trumpian approach to "paying debts", has functionally stopped allowing Iraqi translators who work with the US military into the US. These are people who put themselves and their families at risk to help the US army, and they're functionally being given the middle finger by the Trump administration.

    Trump is literally all about political points, so then why didn't he go?

    "It's tremendous wealth," Trump told reporters gathered at the G-7 summit in France. "I'm not going to lose that wealth. I'm not going to lose it on dreams and windmills, which, frankly, aren't working too well."
    So windmills don't work too well but nuking a hurricane sure sounds like a good idea!!

    Ever the sniveling boot lickers to Heir Drumpf, that the vast swathes of the Republican party are, Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas doubles down on Trump's utter stupidity and says how much better off Greenlanders would be if they allowed themselves to be bought by the U.S. and how well we could strip every national resource from their country.

    By better off he means having to suddenly buy their own health insurance and likely being unable to and then dying/going bankrupt if they get sick?

    I remember seeing the political add of the Democrat running against McConnell on how how he blew off coal miners who were dying black lung disease, blah, blah, blah.

    They will still vote for this guy. As with your post and many others, I don't have much confidence in the state of Kentucky on anything they do.

    So while you all let the Russians derail the thread into a discussion about journalistic ethics

    Im amazed none of you mentioned Trump straight up lied about what China said, and was called out on it by them

    President Donald Trump claimed on Monday that Chinese officials are prepared to return to the negotiating table, signaling there may be a path to a potential détente in his tit-for-tat trade war with Beijing.
    China called last night our top trade people and said, ‘Let’s get back to the table.’ They have been hurt very badly, but they understand this is the right thing to do and I have great respect for it,” Trump told reporters during a bilateral meeting with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi on the sidelines of the G-7 summit.

    “They want to make a deal,” Trump continued. “That’s a great thing.”
    Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Geng Shuang appeared to dispute Trump's claim that such phone conversations had taken place.
    “I am not aware of the phone calls over the weekend you mentioned,
    ” he said in response to a question at a Monday press briefing. “What I can say is that the trade differences should be solved through dialogue and consultation.“

    ...but did not outright call it. Nice catch. Add to the pile of "Trump claims a world leader said something nice in private, which that world leader denies in public".

    I suppose China could have lied here, but
    a) Trump has far less credibility, and
    b) I fail to see the benefit of lying in public, saying there is no deal and Trump lied, when there is a deal and Trump told the truth.

    But hey... At least he was honest. He (alongside all of the GoP base and politicians) dont want to lose their wealth (be present or imagined) in order to combat the worst catastrophe of humanity. Because mist of them will be dead when this gets in full swing

    Just think how much radiation those windmills will actually put out if he actually does nuke hurricanes.

    The answer is still 0. The radiation would come from his stupid decision to use nukes on nature
    Just preface all my posts with "Well, I didn't read the thread, but..."

    It's not the radiation that's the concern, it's the noise. The noise is what causes cancer according to Trump, and only Trump.

    Well, imagine nuking a hurricane...and that radioactive fallout blowing all over Mar-a-lago.

    So apparently nice beautiful Doral resort he wants for upcoming G7 had a bed bug problem.

    With trump's Doral bed bug haven trending with #EmolumentsClause, now seems as good a time as any to remind world leaders of his BED BUG problems at the resort.

    Be a shame if #TrumpBedBugs started trending.
