  • RFK Jr demanded a vaccine study be retracted — the journal said no

    Jump

  • This is not new. He's been harping about how dangerous and terrible scientific journals are for years and has said numerous times he's going to try and shut down some of the leading ones. And I have no doubt he will succeed at least with a few. We are rocketing past Idiocracy at this point.

  • Democrat reformists finding out that Democrats will only play dirty against the left.

  • I feel like it's very optimistic of you to think that people suck balls on the Internet because they are paid and not because a lot of people are just generally shitty. I kinda hope you're right even tho that equates to a rather dystopian present. But the more I meet people, the more I realize that people just kinda suck. Like there are some truly abhorrent people out there... and they're multiplying lol.

  • ‘Absolutely Disgusting’: Trump Sparks Fury By Joking He Can Cancel Future Elections If U.S. Gets Into a War

    Jump

  • I can't help but feel like a civil war is a different scenario. Russia currently controls 20% of Ukraine. For the sake of simplicity, that's 10 US states. I have a very hard time believing that if a foreign country had complete control of 10 states, and the majority of the people of those states, for all intents and purpose were unable to vote, an election would go over smoothly. I have to imagine it would be an utter shitshow.

  • Charging to tour rental properties...

  • Not to mention 3 or 4 ppl that can and will reliably make mortgage payments for 15 or more likely 30 years. Once someone drops out because of life events then they'll want to be bought out by the next person which introduces a whole bunch of headaches. Having watched this exact thing play out, this will most likely turn into a bitter nightmare of endless paperwork and some ruined relationships.

  • Trump has spent almost a third of presidency at his own properties, new report shows

    Jump

  • I don't know if he's doing it this time as well - I'd be surprised if he's not - but last term he kept putting the presidential guests up to stay at his properties at a marked up room cost too

  • Trump to blame for high cost of living, Americans say in new poll

    Jump

  • I mean with regards to this poll, yes and no. Look at the question framing. For some questions this is true but a lot don't really leave space for that mistake:

    Did trump have a negative affect on grocery prices?

    Did trump have a negative affect on your finances prices?

    Will Trump's tarrifs increase the price of every day goods?

    These don't ask if Trump or his administration is responsible for high grocery prices or CoL or the financial climate, just if he has helped or worsened it. Other questions are pretty clear in their separation from this specific administration:

    Do you believe Corporations or billionaires have had an active role in making life more difficult for average people over the past 25 years?

    Do you believe congressional Republicans or congressional Democrats have made life more difficult?

    A lot of the other questions just have to do with how anxious people feel about finances or the concerns they have and doesn't really ask about any politicians at all.

    Of course you are absolutely right that, in general, people have an astonishingly and consistently short memory resulting in attributing current problems to current politicians but I dunno if this poll is really indicative of that.

  • US House speaker shuts down chamber to block Epstein vote

    Jump

  • I'm betting on her suddenly testifying before court and "bearing it all." Confessing that there really isn't any list and they blackmailed and trafficked girls but only to a few sacrificial and unimportant people. And she will conveniently walk free as part of a plea deal to be included in the deal Epstein struck in 2007.

  • Millions Kicked Off Medicaid? 'Don't Eat Carrot Cake,' Says Administrator Oz

    Jump

  • I mean you might not like it but he's totally right. I stopped eating carrot cake 3 years ago and about 4 months afterwards I got in a horrific car accident. 2 people were critically injured, 2 more died and a llama was also killed. I was miraculously unharmed and the doctors said if I had even a bite of carrot cake in the months leading up to that I would have been hurt badly. Who knows how big that medical bill would have been... Thanks Dr. Oz!

  • House Republicans block Democratic maneuver to force release of Epstein files

    Jump

  • In situations like this where it clearly won't matter, I've always seen it as basically a token vote that they pass around to whoever's turn it is. Everybody on the team gets a few votes throughout their term where they can vote against something that will pass anyway and then they can turn around later when their constituents are mad about whatever and just say "but remember? I voted against that thing you hated!"

    I could of course be completely wrong but it just seems like the math just barely works out in the majority party's favor way too much to be a coincidence.

  • Trump urges MAGA supporters to forget about Epstein files

    Jump

  • It's almost worse than that. I swear, some of them take a perverse pride in being led all around the political landscape like a dog with a shiny red ball. The discussions I've had where people happily and excitedly admit that Trump was completely lying to them and just hungrily accept the new story as undeniable fact is wild and impossible for me to wrap my head around.

  • Bring them back!!!

    Jump

  • I'd say they do them justice to some degree no? I quite enjoyed the first movie, it changed some stuff from the book for sure but I feel like it captured the same feel for the most part and does the story justice. Admittedly, the lost world was a bit of a mess as they combined some stuff from different books and changed the ending for the worse I'd say but Ive seen much worse adaptations in the theatre.

  • Flooded Texas County Turned Down Funds for Warning System From Biden Admin in 2021: 'We Don't Want to Be Bought'

    Jump

  • "We don't want to be bought by the federal government, thank you very much," a resident said. "We'd like the federal government to stay out of Kerr County and their money."

    While the county ultimately kept the funds, they allocated the majority, about $8 million, to sheriff's department upgrades and public employee stipends

    I... what? "We don't want your stinking money. We'll still take it tho... We just won't spend it on what we said we would. That'll show you dumb idgits!"

  • The area that camp mystic is on is literally called "flash flood alley" because of the possibility of this happening. The area has thin soil that doesn't really soak up much water and bedrock that keeps it on the surface. Combine that with a bunch of creeks that all converge to a river in the area and you get what happened this weekend.
