> killed a teenage Islamic State fighter with a handmade custom blade, and then performed his re-enlistment ceremony posing with the teenager’s bloody corpse in front of an American flag.

Yeah, it's...it's bad

wtf is wrong with this guy

> “This is not who Eddie is,” his wife, Andrea Gallagher, said in an interview. “He is a lifesaver. He is that guy who runs into the burning building when other people are running out.”

A problem conveniently solved by no longer seeing certain groups as "people"

Yeah and there are actual photos

> As for the photos taken afterward, posing with the body, Mr. Stackhouse said, “these types of pictures are not unique, they’ve been in every Iraq case I’ve ever done.”

@TimStone uhhhhhhhhhhh

mmmmm buddy, guess what, that doesn't make it okay

do we want to place bets on if trump will pardon this guy because of toxic masculinity?

Like the whole defense premise here seems to be "Ah no he didn't stab that injured kid to death, he was actually trying to help him, and sure he posed with his corpse afterward, who wouldn't?"

@GodEmperorDune Would it shock me? No. Would it have any bearing on a dishonorable discharge? Thankfully also no

@TimStone uhhhhh it seems like this is the worst "why not both" possible

the article says he stabbed the kid right after applying medical treatment

I think some other account makes the suggestion that he punctured the kid's neck for medical reasons except that's not at all what you do for a collapsed lung so 🤷

@TimStone i mean a tracheotomy (sp?) is a thing

but thats a single cut that you would do with a scalpel, not some homemade hunting knife

hottie avenatti forgot to pay the rent for 4 months

dude is rapidly becoming a trump on the left

"left"

@Unionhawk fair

@GodEmperorDune "Rapidly", implying that he wasn't already?

@Yuuki also fair

this was pointed out early on

and brought up when he started with the 2020 nonsense

@Unionhawk this is making the rounds through my TL

@GodEmperorDune we don't need that

1 on any side is already too much

@Memor-X agreed

this is goddamn apalling

(their country's flag blah blah blah)

I mean for someone who appears to have an unusual attraction to the flag you'd think he'd get this but

@TimStone to add the end is "because it is all a BIG CON, and the American taxpayer is paying for it!"

how? isn't your welfare system crap and they wouldn't get into it?

they can't be taking your jobs, unless your so unskilled at it that an asylum seeker is more skilled than you

i'd be very curious what the American Taxpayer is actually paying

@TimStone the fucking rocket launcher

h/t @EmilyG

@GodEmperorDune obvious

@Unionhawk hell yeah

(shouldn't be up to DSA to fill in the gaps of govt fuckups but here we are)

Who keeps us safe etc

@Memor-X Trump's stupid troop deployments to the border are certainly payed by taxes

@GodEmperorDune Yeah, but that would be for an airway obstruction, like bleeding in the mouth, not a collapsed lung

Feel like we should make an exception to the Invade the Hague rule for this dude tbh

Quebec judge says class action lawsuit over McDonald's Happy Meal toys can go ahead: beta.ctvnews.ca/content/ctvnews/en/national/canada/2018/11/15/…

> A class action lawsuit against McDonald's Canada arguing that Happy Meals and their accompanying toys illegally advertise to children can go ahead, a judge has ruled.

Here's a better criticism of the sufetonil oral application approval:

Though I'm still not confident in the closing "will they ever learn?" versus whether the agency clearly has authority to do differently or if Republicans would get up in arms again about "overreach"

The disinvitation part is concerning in either case, though

@Wipqozn Why do they hate happiness?

@TimStone Lawyers

Ontario PC Party passes resolution to not recognize gender identity: globalnews.ca/news/4673240/ontario-pc-recognize-gender-identity

@Wipqozn wut

this is atrocious

just cruel for no goddamn reason

your state gov can get in the sea

@GodEmperorDune Doug ford baabbbyyyy

Christ he's going to run for PM one day isn't he

@Wipqozn I recognize that this is particularly mean spirited but uhhh does he only share the unhinged bigotry of his brother or is it maybe the whole package?

lol:

> California inmate confesses to being a serial killer responsible for about 90 deaths

God that's gonna be some mixed messaging to the MAGAheads

@TimStone uhhhhhhhhhhhh wat

@Ash Be glad you presumably haven't had to see the latest Bill Mitchell take then. But yeah, I can't even watch audio anymore. Someone had a slowed down clip where he just sounds like a rambling drunk person and I'm really curious if his energy is what helps mask the fact that what he's saying is often just gibberish

@Ash Right? Hopefully they're investigating fully; the article says he hasn't provided any false information but the police have an interest in closing cold cases and this guy has exhausted any appeal attempts, so infamy is not unreasonable at that point either

I mean Trump clearly did not write that

Right?

But regardless of who did it's pretty weird that they would at this point?

I don't understand

Oh whew, Amazon isn't getting $2.1 billion in local subsidies

It's actually more than double that 🤷

Annnnd the Saudis are apparently pissed Trump gave countries waivers on Iranian oil, lol

As one does

Michael, is it because of the extrajudicial murder?

"Hahah everyone dies" is uhhh a platform, but mmm

@Unionhawk Of course

@GodEmperorDune So we're gonna need you to take the state and just move several hundred miles north please

@TimStone uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

@TimStone this is why we can't have net neutrality, so we can offer our first responders better services

Oh, but that costs money, though

"Responder Private Core" makes me think that they offer both a package to public emergency services and there's some bonus package with extra shit

Facebook doesn't count against your limit during the emergency for an extra $50/month

"How is that related to first responders?" "They have to mark themselves safe, obviously, it's an extreme value add don't question us"

@TimStone To be honest I'm not sure

@Ash they should have just purchased the First Responder Premium package

only on verizon

@TimStone Oh, you mean remove important nutrients from the ecosystem?

It's just impressive how he processes things that make sense but then extrapolates them so they become really dumb

Like yes, if you have an excess of detritus that dries easily a la pine needles and becomes the primary source of flammable material it makes sense to manage that. If you have a ton of trees that have dried due to drought and are themselves extremely flammable, not as much!

But you know, when your brain works like that ^, 🤷

@TimStone we'll grow oranges in alaska
