Once again ... surprised? Not really. I have little doubt but that Trump wants to cootchie-coo Prime Minister Modi, and dismissing an investigation into a situation like this, where the abuse of the workers is so blatantly obvious, is one tactic which is all but an automatic for Donnie.
Still it's tragic. I mean, $1.20 an HOUR labor rate? GET SERIOUS! Even for India, that's ludicrous, though it's the kind of stunt that Trump would have LOVED to pull, himself.
What else to say, I don't know, other than this is one more travesty committed by an unfeeling administration that is more interested in influencing heavyweights than it is in serving ordinary people.
The NSGOP would like to get rid of the minimum wage altogether. Some would like to bring back full on owning people slavery. I would bet that some of them would call $1.20 per hour π¨π¦π―π¦π³π°πΆπ΄.
I'll also bet that the ones who scream the loudest about the minimum wage being an onerous burden on the poor, put-upon bosses are the ππ¦π’π΄π΅ likely to have ever had to work for an hourly wage themselves.
The NSGOP might not be able to bring back slavery, but serfdom might be more likely. Although the difference between serfdom and slavery is blurry to say the least.
As a conservative Christian I am a bit conflicted. On one hand, they aren't Christian and deserve to be tortured in a lake of fire for ever, and on the other hand, they did screw over poor people and essentially brought back slavery. So my only question before I can decide if I support them is how dark of skin are they?
Kidding or not, (and why be sarcastic when Trumpites don't know what it means and will see you as a rabid member of their Trump cult) christianity, Judaism and islam are based on the rantings of a full on racist, violent megalomaniac and buffoon, Abraham (Hinduism is also racist with its caste system). FYI - what it means to be a christian, jew, muslim. /And, is there any real difference between the "god" commanded genocides of the early Israelites, and what is being done in Gaza, Palestine... by Israelis now?

Isnβt it amazing how much money these religions have? Lucky for the BAP faps, they donβt have that pesky cheezus wandering around telling them to give Brie to the poorβfor their brioches.. In the immortal words of the Hindu Saint, Mordred:

Trump removed a White House painting of Obama and replaced it with...you guessed it...a portrait of Trump. Said painting depicts the attempted assassination of BLOTUS.
The Farter of Our Country is a bad-tempered child.
I will take that further and say that Mary Trump's book, Too Much and Never Enough, is a clear-eyed and detailed description of the mindset and motivations of Donald John Trump.
Nah. Toddlers do their best. It's the parents who have a problem if they can't figure out the kid. Assmouth is not doing his best. He takes pride in being a shit.
Why insult children everywhere? Trump is a criminal and megalomaniac (as are all criminal) with almost unlimited power, thanks to the U.S. voting, education, social, legal, etc. systems. How else would Trump act when he doesn't get his way other than like something out of the Godfather? Hitler was the same.
We have a new Hindu temple about 5K away. It does have all the towers, but it is also a bright orangey pinkβ If that's a colour. It certainly stands out. Apparently it was built by a sect of Hinduism that has plenty of money, and they employed a local contractor or local contractors. There's been a lot of stuff posted about it as it was built, and my wife β who works with a Hindu lady, and therefore got all the inside goss about the various sects, said there were lots of white people in the photos. So presumably no scandal here. I must say I rather like it β but then I've always liked a bit of garish.
"You have to wonder whether Trumpβs affinity for fellow autocrats like Modi had anything to do with his administration dropping this particular case. (While thatβs purely speculation, it hardly seems out of the question.)" I don't wonder...
I'd say it's all but a slam dunk. Trump wants Modi in his corner, though that's no easy deal. Modi treats a LOT with Russia and Putin, and breaking up that partnership will take some doing. Dismissing the temple case was a move in that direction, but it will take a LOT more to influence Modi.
I hope there will be an actual election but I fear at most we will get a sham election like Putin runs. Maybe not even that if Don the Dipshit names himself king.
trump tries to maintain a cosey relationship with autocrats. His administration is now planning to prop up the govt. of Argentina to the tune of $20 billion U.S. tax dollars.
Meanwhile, American soy bean farmers are bracing for bankruptcy because China is buying soybeans from other countries due to the tariffs.
βthe Defendants overseeing the Robbinsville temple construction then retaliated against workers who organized to demand, among other things, that Mohan Lalβs remains to be treated according to his β not the Defendantsβ β religious rituals and that the Defendants improve working conditions.β
This here makes me question the explanation of the religious practice of volunteering claimed by the defendants. If these people were there to fulfill their religious obligations, that are part of the groupβs religion, why would the workers demand different religious rites at death? The death rites would be the same, wouldnβt they?
Wealthy people lying about their abuse of the downtrodden? Never.
They're probably counting on good ol' American racism to cover that angle. Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh, Jain... what's the difference, really? One group of brown people who have one of those non-Christian brown people furriner religions is basically the same as the next, isn't it?
1. Religious exploitation and privilege is not limited to Christianity, or even the Abrahamic faiths.
2. Although Christian Fucking Privilege is paramount to the NSGOP, when other authoritarians are exposed, they will defend them.
3. Slavery still exists, even here in the US. And the current Regime doesn't care.
4. Here is yet one more example of how good people do good things, bad people do bad things, but it requires religion to for good people to do bad things.
Hiding behind religion to push your authoritarian agenda forward is a sign of weakness and insecurity. Both Modi and Dear Leader share this in common and both should be criticized without fear.
Also, didnβt India just say screw you to Dear Leaderβs tariffs and tariff threats? Just wait until life saving pharmaceuticals arenβt available or extremely expensive. Guess Dear Leader isnβt a strong man, deal-maker, or businessman after all. What a joke.
βWhile the case hasnβt been resolved yet, this whole saga has been a chilling reminder that religious zealotry can sometimes mask exploitation. While the BAPS temples, in New Jersey and beyond, may appear to be a monument to Hindu devotion, the lawsuit suggests that its marble faΓ§ade was built on the suffering of at least a handful of marginalized workers who say they were coerced into their roles.β
I hope Comey's defense team is loaded for bear. As I understand it, the prosecution's case is pretty thin, and was made despite protests from within the DoJ. It's entirely possible that this will wind up being yet one more embarrassment for them, Bondi, and Trump!
By now we should've long ago realized that you cannot shame the shameless.
Religiou$ Fanatics, Trumplings & MAGAsses are totally shameless. In fact, they'll gleefully, proudly boast of their shamelessness. For them HATE, IDEOLOGY & FAITH is all that matters.
"I expect to see more resignations at the DOJ and FBI based on this indictment. I expect to see the Comey case dismissed at some point.
"Comey is represented by renowned former prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, and Trumpβs Virginia federal prosecution team is led by his former personal lawyer Lindsey Halligan, who has zero experience as a federal prosecutor or even as a trial lawyer. This will be like watching an NBA player in Fitzgerald go against a JV high school player in Halligan."
[shrug] THEY may not embarrass very easily ... but some AROUND them will start feeling the pain, especially considering the lame case being brought against Comey. It's entirely possible that the judge sitting on that case will take one look at it, then address the prosecution with two words:
Look, anyone supporting Trump and not understanding that he will, at some point, stab them in the back deserves it as an object lesson, if nothing else.
I don't really care what happens to Comey, but the authoritarianism behind this prosecution horrifies me. It is a case of a President using the power of his office to settle a score with a man who dared hurt his tender feelings.
I am a chicken and has to admit I just can't read about all those horror stories from UnUSA, Gaza, various other countries. I actually get depressed, and I don't need that. Sorry.
"Bear 32 Chunk, as he is known, hunts for food in preparation for Fat Bear Week."
From the Guardian. I suspect the bear is preparing for hibernation rather than fat bear week whatever that is. Unless the 2 are somehow the same?
Anyway, the all Blacks play Australia today at Eden Park. Hopefully the Eden Park jinx will still be in force β Australia haven't won there for maybe 20 odd years. If the all Blacks lose, don't expect to see me very much tomorrow. To lose to Australia is a great humiliation. I suspect that the coach may well be under sentence ATM. :)
Ah well, we don't have bears β fat or otherwise. I'm reasonably grateful for that since my youth I spend a lot of time in the bush, and didn't have to worry about anything breaking into the food cache except for the occasional possum.
You don't seem to realise the absolute fanaticism of rugby fans in this country. It's the only sport in which we dominate. It's not the only sport we are good at, but it's a sport where we expect to win rather than just hope to win. So there's a lot of egos tied up in it.
I am one of the least fanatical, but if we lose again they will be rounds of tooth gnashing and wailing and tearing of hair. It will be the headline in every new service, pushing pretty much everything but nuclear war off the pages.
The other day I posted something about the AB's coach whose nickname is 'razor', suggesting he couldn't "cut it anymore". Didn't get many laughs β some, but a number of down votes and at least one person that took me seriously and asked why I thought he couldn't.
We have our version of football, which drives people nuts. Our local newspaper is mostly sports. So I understand the cultural significance. Since we lost the NBA, basketball team, I tuned out.
I am geographically nowhere near fat bear week. There are no people. It's still fun to see how they get so fat.
Once again we are seeing yet another example of being able to justify anything in the name of religion. Even human slavery.
It worked here in the pre-civil-war era. It is at the heart of the foundation of the SBC.
Once again ... surprised? Not really. I have little doubt but that Trump wants to cootchie-coo Prime Minister Modi, and dismissing an investigation into a situation like this, where the abuse of the workers is so blatantly obvious, is one tactic which is all but an automatic for Donnie.

The NSGOP might not be able to bring back slavery, but serfdom might be more likely. Although the difference between serfdom and slavery is blurry to say the least.
Again, there's no evil that can't be justified by rich religious people.
As a conservative Christian I am a bit conflicted. On one hand, they aren't Christian and deserve to be tortured in a lake of fire for ever, and on the other hand, they did screw over poor people and essentially brought back slavery.

I'm kinda new here.

Not an Amirite, I think he's Irish. : )
Yes. Holytape specializes in satire.

This kinda reminds me of how Trumpβs buildings were built. Nonunion labor and stiffing the contractors.
And plenty of undocumented immigrant labor.

Obama is the class act that Trump will NEVER be ... and at one level or another, I'd bet money that that sticks in Trump's craw CONSTANTLY.
Trump obsesses about Obama 24/7 because trump is a insecure loser. Trump's klandaddy Fred apparently told Fatler what a failure he is all of his life.
Trump removed a White House painting of Obama and replaced it with...you guessed it...a portrait of Trump. Said painting depicts the attempted assassination of BLOTUS.
The Farter of Our Country is a bad-tempered child.
I've said it many times: Trump is a child in a mansuit, pretending to be an adult.
I will take that further and say that Mary Trump's book, Too Much and Never Enough, is a clear-eyed and detailed description of the mindset and motivations of Donald John Trump.
I think it is essential reading.
Obama got laughs telling jokes about Mushroom Dick; he will never forget that nor forgive it.
Nah. Toddlers do their best. It's the parents who have a problem if they can't figure out the kid. Assmouth is not doing his best. He takes pride in being a shit.
Why insult children everywhere? Trump is a criminal and megalomaniac (as are all criminal) with almost unlimited power, thanks to the U.S. voting, education, social, legal, etc. systems. How else would Trump act when he doesn't get his way other than like something out of the Godfather? Hitler was the same.
He was not entirely wrong.
I bet the teleprompter worked too.
And, even if it hadnβt, he would have been able to recite his speech without insulting everyone in the room or threaten peons over it.
He has a hand in his pocket instead of the guardrail ! It's scandalous ! Cancel his Noble Prize !!!
I don't know about that tie color either. π
You're right.
Yup. I use escalators a lot. That rubbery/plastic handrail always moves at a greater speed than the steel steps.
"Okay, here's where the main building goes. How many spires would you like on it?"
"Yes."
"I'm sorry, but I'm going to need a number for the-"
"ALL THE SPIRES."

"bright orangey pink"
In French, it's rose saumon (salmon pink).
Ah ... I had it in my mind there might be a word for it thanks.
You should ask your wife next time. As a knitter, she should know the name of a lot of colors and shades.

Can sometimes? Correction: ALWAYS.
Religion is bullshit, therefore, by definition anything & everything they do is exploitative.
In of itself religion never produces anything. Like vampires, leeches & ticks it survives by sucking-off nourishment out of something & someone else.
You paint with too broad a brush there & the bad you mention has been done by all kinds of different people-groups-politicians.
Altho some religion has been hijacked by the sorts you mention, much good has also been done by those of faith.

Trump doesn't care about actual crimes, he just wants to imprison anyone that isn't sufficiently loyal to him.
Or anyone who has the temerity to spoil his view out the limousine window with a tent.

Say WHAT???
One can hope, anyway!
Thin? The filing isn't two whole pages and is vague at best. Lawyer woman for Assmouth used *principal* in lieu of *principle*.
A mistake we all make on the daily.
The guy who helped Trump win in 2016. How soon Trump forgets.
But what has he done for Shitler lately?
I bet Mme Hillary Clinton is laughing her ass off.
He gets no sympathy from Michael Cohen either.
https://therealmichaelcohen.substack.com/p/justice-collapses-under-trumps-shadow
You realize Mr. Cohen is as much a shit as Dear Leader. He just happened to get caught, took the fall.
Now he is making bank on a redemption tour.
I don't buy it.
True, but that doesn't mean what he has to say is worthless.
Ok, I just don't want to go there. I never paid attention to Ehrlichmann's redemption tour either.
Lol, karma
But he refused to pledge his undying loyalty to Shitpants McTinyDick, so he has to pay!
Look, anyone supporting Trump and not understanding that he will, at some point, stab them in the back deserves it as an object lesson, if nothing else.
Rβamen.
I don't really care what happens to Comey, but the authoritarianism behind this prosecution horrifies me. It is a case of a President using the power of his office to settle a score with a man who dared hurt his tender feelings.
Y'know, I hate the perversion of justice and authoritarian overreach those charges represent, but... given that we're talking about the guy whose ill-timed 2016 press release, about a nothingburger case he wasn't recommending charges for anyway, gave us both all of those "But Her Emails!" memes and, π°π© πΊπ¦π’π©, Trump's first go at fondling the big-boy desk... there's a shitty little part of me that had a not-so-little giggle at the thought of Comey getting harassed by the monster he helped create.
I hope Comey likes the feel of leopard tongue on his face.
I don't like what he did either. Bolton is a much worse guy, but I don't like him being invaded either.
To be fair, if anything ever has been, Bolton shoulda been in jail a long time ago.
I know I feel a lot safer. I can put the shotgun away, maybe.
I am a chicken and has to admit I just can't read about all those horror stories from UnUSA, Gaza, various other countries. I actually get depressed, and I don't need that. Sorry.
No need to apologize. Sometimes evil seems invincible.
But despite that, we're still here.
Evil destroys itself! Remember what happened to all the Sith Lords before Darth Bane. Even the rule of two requires evil to destroy evil!
