  • ‘Ridiculous’: Pentagon doesn’t even know what to do with extra $500 billion Trump wants to spend

    Jump

  • ...And yet no one in power right now will push back against it because they don't want to be seen as "weak on defense"

  • Judge scolds Mark Zuckerberg's team for wearing Meta glasses to social media trial

    Jump

  • HA! yes. I knew I spelled it wrong just to lazy to edit my post - thanks!

  • Judge scolds Mark Zuckerberg's team for wearing Meta glasses to social media trial

    Jump

  • This feels like gorilla marketing to me. They knew the judge would tell them to take them off and it would be just enough of a sensational story to make it to press. Now more people know that Meta has these glasses.

    Edit: I'm not changing it. The responses to my mistake are too funny

  • House Speaker welcomes Trump call to ‘take over’ elections, claims Dem wins appear ‘fraudulent’

    Jump

  • I think Obama not pursuing charges against those in the Bush administration was another, more recent, bit of bullshit.

  • Do it for your country's debt!

  • as an aside - Read somewhere that this argument that the government can't afford all of these things like healthcare, infrastructure, etc. that would help most people is bullshit. Since the federal government prints it's own money there is nothing that it can't afford. We spent 3 - 8 trillion on the Afghanistan and Iraq wars alone. And when people argue that it will increase inflation - sure maybe, but if you tax wealthy people more it can cover part or all of the newly printed money.

    Note: I'm a bit of an idiot about this stuff - so this article could be completely off base and I just wouldn't know.

  • How come residential power lines aren't buried underground still?

    Jump

  • There is moisture above ground too and ground movement can affect the poles as well. I would think that there is more exposure to damages above ground with cars hitting them, tree limbs, strong winds, animals chewing through wires, etc. While it's easier to repair damages above ground I believe there would be less of them with buried lines.

  • That's nice that they got a rejection letter though instead of being ghosted

  • 'Sense of betrayal' driving 'big shift' in Trump support that could sink GOP

    Jump

  • You know whats crazy is how much shit that trump has done during his time as president - how outrageous and what-the-fuckness of it all and some how we have to believe that he didn't even attempt to try to rig the election? That the statement you made is just too crazy and out there for it to be real. That you had to call out that you may be living in crazy land conspiracy theory land just in case.

    I don't think it's in any way crazy to believe that with all the other shit that he has done, including leading an insurrection against this country. I'm with you I think he did indeed rig the election with the help of musk and others and I'm not going to apologize about that belief.

  • Democrats go all in on affordability in bid to turn voters against Trump

  • On the right side candidates can't not be perfect - so it's always easy for them to vote for their candidate

    On the left side candidates will never be perfect - so it's always easy to not vote for their candidate.

  • They want you to "quit demonstrating"

  • Or we could all just be a bunch of "tourist" visiting a city - just like all the "tourist" that "just visited" the capitol on January 6th 2021.

  • People in the MAGA world genuinely believe that most people think like them. The difference is that they are the brave ones that speak truth to power, everyone else is just a timid sycophant the bows down to the "woke" mafia.

  • Democratic National Committee blocks release of its 2024 election autopsy

    Jump

  • The Comprehensive 2024 Election Theft Fact Check is a well researched take on all of this. Have to admit that sharing it feels like a blue-Q type thing (Trump and the MAGAgats have done a great job poisoning the well when it comes to questioning election integrity) but if you can get through it all, it does line up with a valid take on the 2024 election.

  • Why did Donald Trump Jr turn up in a tiny British enclave looking for money?

    Jump

  • In October, he published a list of donors to the project. Alongside tech companies and weapons manufacturers was a Russian-born US businessman, Konstantin Sokolov.

    Sokolov is building a £1.8bn AI datacentre in Gibraltar, the enclave’s biggest outside investment.

  • They experienced the beginning of the internet and computers becoming a main part of people's lives

    They experienced the height of the cold war and experienced genuine concern for nuclear armageddon

    They experienced the end of the cold war and a few years of peace

    They experienced the beginning of grunge, hip hop music, heavy metal, MTV , and the peak of Michael Jackson

    They experienced 9/11, the dot com bubble burst, the housing crash of 2008, the pandemic of 2020

    They lived under the thumb of the silent generation and the boomer generation dominating politics for their entire life (as we all still do today) so there voice was never really heard.
