Could this forum suck any worse? Come on guys! Why this thread has gotten the oxygen it has sucked out of this forum, I will never know! I come here because I want to get away from all of the political garbage out there. I want to talk about and learn more about Omega watches…and watches in general. I wish you guys would put this much passion into the other threads. Are the moderators asleep at the switch? WTF?
Now the hissing can commence!

Yep, that's happening as well. Countries around the world are aggressively recruiting American talent. For generations, the talent came to the US following opportunities ... now it is starting to leave.

Isn't it an important part of her role to consistently perform well in interviews and public discourse? Just look at Obama, a clear example of how much stronger Democratic candidates used to be. If they can’t learn from their mistakes and adapt, they’re doomed to repeat the same failures. I hope they’ve made significant changes and restructuring, because a strong Democratic Party is important for American democracy and the country as a whole.
Yes. I have friends and colleagues in health care and medical research. The cuts have been arbitrary, devastating, and reckless. Making America great again doesn’t mean adopting practices from the 1800’s…
I think it's possible some of the people posting in this thread don't understand just how incredibly damaging the "defund the police" movement was among certain voters. I realize that the reality is largely that it was a fringe portion of the left, and not a Democratic Party ideal, but it was allowed to have way too much voice. There should have been a concerted response from the Democratic Party that encouraged Law and Order and reform. It's my sincere hope that all of us encourage our Representatives along this line of reasoning for the future.
Former National Weather Service officials are saying that with the deep cuts made to the service across the country, they will no longer to be able to track severe weather events in the same way as they did before. In areas subject to severe storms this puts citizens at risk.
There are a pile of cuts like this that people will only notice when it’s too late…

Sorry but your wrong on this. The only people who gave it too much voice was republicans who kept make false accusations of this person or that person wanting to defund the police. Remember when republicans added an amendment to a spending bill withholding federal funds for places that defunded the police as a gotcha for democrats? Every single democrat voted in support of it. Cory Booker was jumping for joy as it was now officially on the record in black and white that they were not for defunding.
In fact it was republican Tim Scott who introduced a bill that would defund police departments that didn't ban choke holds. That bill didn't go anywhere.
Later Tim Scott and Cory Booker spent months working on a bipartisan police reform bill. Scott told Booker the only way to get the bill to pass was to get police support for it. Booker took the bill to two major police orginzations and got their support for it. Suddenly another police orginzation comes out of left field saying they are againt the bill. Scott jumps on this as an excuse to kill the bill. He then goes around saying he did so because the democrats wanted to "defund the police".

Glow- I'm not saying it was any major political portion of the democratic party, and essentially you're echoing the greater concern over the whole situation. Both parties amplify minor things to give them major platform; what I am saying is it is/was absolutely the responsibility of the Democratic party to hit back on "defund" and say "hey, we're actually not doing that."
Consider some of the Harris/Walz speeches where they're talking about police/and or gun rights- that's finally a major party candidate giving serious voice to some of these issues. A major voice.
It's, perhaps unfortunately not about bills passed, it's about perception.
I think generally I've been... leaning into this idea that there are definitely groups demanding reason while offering none. If we're consistently seeing concerns that "the left" is defunding the police (even if it isn't true) the answer is absolutely not to allow it to go unaddressed "because it's not true." vocal opposition might have been helpful.
You can tell me I'm wrong, but please consider that it's the middle voters' perceptions- the ones that aren't going to seriously parse for truth but need to see the loud headlines- that both parties should be catering to. I'll hunt down data on my own, as will you, clearly. Quite frankly- FOX is doing one thing exceptionally well, and that's specific and targeted messaging from many of their... hosts, anchors, and reporters.
