Isn’t being “out of control” kind of the point? Right now we have an executive branch with Essential Functions like military, domestic enforcement, ATC, etc. still intact. We have no functioning legislative branch and President rules by executive order unconstrained by the judicial branch. How is this not exactly what a would-be King would want?
Dude sucks for sure, but real talk: I think when the seas rise and the food gets scarce and there’s no way we can avoid doing something, the powers that be will resort to some kind of geo-engineering BS. It’ll be a coin flip if that kills all of us
Wife and I saw the SNAP suspension coming and dug around in our budget to give what we could split between local and state food banks. Feels like barely anything compared to what’s needed.
How can we not agree on “no hungry children or seniors”? If not just “no hunger”. I guarantee we’re net losing money by not feeding our people. How is it that the cruelty is really the point? I can’t wrap my head around it
Sad to hear. I loved the trains when I lived in the Bay area. Was also a great nonstandard place to show visitors. All the workers I met there were dedicated and loved the work (except maybe ticket takers). Hope they can figure out a long term solution
Anytime you try to surge recruitment in anything, you lose quality. From what I’ve seen, ICE requirements are basically the floor already. Maybe they’re hoping for better candidates as SNAP expires and people get desperate.
Oh interesting! We had a few that would honk but have grumpy/neutral faces instead of the usual smiles. I was wondering if they were just stoic or i misidentified which car was honking… Anger honking that everyone thinks is support is hilarious. To be honest though, I smiled and waved even friendlier at the detractors. We’re doing this for you too
Was fun. Maybe 200-300 folks showed up in our small suburb. Hopefully the bigger cities have more turnout
Didn’t work on us! Worst we saw were drivers giving us thumbs down as we waved Americans flags
I’m excited to take my preschoolers to their first protest! Won’t be able to stay long, but feels worth it to introduce them to good political principles
That’s the official statement? Sue them for slandering your mom. She wouldn’t put up with Orban’s bullshit
I’m surprised that I’m the first to say “p-trap” drain. Self-maintaining, no moving parts, affordable as anything, protects the indoors from sewer gas, catches rings. Chefs kiss 200 years old and still great
I just tried “Trump signs of dementia” and got ‘An AI Overview is not available for this search’ Meanwhile subbing in “Biden” have a full ai summary. Sus for sure
Yeah KATU is Sinclair I think. Extremely dangerous to our democracy and all that. I watch late night on YouTube, which is fine and all since I have no idea how to pressure KATU 2 to do anything. Complain to local advertisera?
I mean, go ahead? They’re already allowed to have young Republican clubs - how would this be different?
And if you won’t use the sharpie, you’re fired and I’ll find someone who will
Plus, “hey, more exploitable labor!” Oligarchs and their fanboys range from neutral to pro-Poverty
I don’t know, 3" (or so) grouping at 200 yards under those conditions is objectively hard. I don’t know anyone in my personal life that I think could make that shot
I just saw the clip too. Kirk fully sucked but I don’t know how you can watch that video and not see a fellow human dying
Clear encampments by… Giving them homes to save money?
I’ll bet it’s the opposite. They’re shifting the cancellations/ATC stress to commercial flights while private flights are unaffected
