  • Donald Trump did not get elected President (Twice!) by relying on intelligence that didn't come from his own Very Big Brain....

  • And it's really just a coincidence that Trump was very involved in Professional Wrestling back in the day, and gave Linda McMahon cabinet positions in both administrations.

    But hey, conspiracy theories are fun. Here's mine: we will see neither Usha Vance nor Erika Kirk for the duration of Vance's "pregnancy", and when the baby is born it will look a bit different than the other Vance kids....

  • All I'm saying is that nobody is going to leak anything to the WaPo right now unless the administration wants it leaked. They may not be State-owned, but they are certainly State-pwned.

  • What did you need help with?

  • Why should we believe WaPo? They are part of the problem

  • When was the vote they were being reimbursed for? Believe it or not, that matters. If they got a check before a vote that's a bribe, and a big no-no. But if they got it after the fact, that's a gratuity, and A-OK, according to the Supreme Court

  • I wonder if the real point of the article is not that the Russians are doing this, but that everyone else is saying "Hey, we know what you're up to". To give them second thoughts about escalating.

  • I find it interesting how the article is just casually dismissing the fact that countries can now fly around and take pictures of other countries' geosynchronous satellites. It says "Yeah, pics are OK, but Russia might be listening, too, and that's bad." Whicn is bullshit. I don't think anyone is going through the trouble of sending up a remotely piloted space drone but saying "Let's not listen to the data it is sending, that would be unsportsmanlike!" So all those craft we say are "just taking pictures"? Yeah, they're listening too.

    I think any country that broadcasts signals into the air like that will have some really good encryption going on though, so listening to the signals is about as useful as listening to static

  • Wait, we're all concerned that his mental acuity is increasing?

  • The Colbert thing was the day this poll ended. So the additional publicity he got is not reflected in it.

    I don't have a horse in this race, they both seem reasonable candidates, who can be effective against Paxton. I don't know why Lemmings here are so down on him. Is it because he is very outspoken in his Christianity? Not all Christians are assholes. He has said "There's nothing Christian about Christian Nationalism", after all.

  • My fellow Americans, a short time ago, we were a dead country. Now we are the hottest country anywhere in the world. The hottest, and getting hotter and hotter until it’s too hot to live here anymore. For you, of course. Too hot for you. I’ve got a great, ice-cold bunker. The best bunker ever.

    No wonder he wants Greenland so badly, he wants to build the Fortress of Solitude

  • And not just any foreign entity, one that is a provider of fossil fuels and has a lot to lose if the US reduces its reliance on them

  • Blame America First!

  • It's a speech that the President gives to a joint session of Congress, so Senators and Representatives are all in the chamber together.

    The Constitution mandates that the President gives Congress an update on the State of the Union "from time to time", and over the years that has evolved into a speech given around this time of year, every year except the first year of a President's term. It is also viewed as an opportunity for the President to advocate for legislation he favors.

  • I suppose, but if the weather was that bad the lack of a plane wouldnt matter.

  • No, I meant the investigators. You can't expect someone of Kash Patel's lofty stature to wait in an airport with commoners.

    But why did the investigators have to drive the whole way?

  • Couldn't they have flown commercial?

  • If Trump manages to hold onto power past Jan 2029, he won't need votes to do it.
