He also supports removing protections on the most delicious endangered animals so the POTUS' failsons and RFKjr can go murder and eat them

Went down the rabbit hole of City of Livonia City Council election results from this past Nov 4. https://livonia.gov/DocumentCenter/View/10747/Nov-4-2025-UNOFFICIAL-City-General-Election-Results?bidId= Most notable things to me...because they were all "No Party" is the high, high absentee number (Livonia has become a retirement home) and extremely high vote totals (Livonia almost votes at 85% rate of total population and of the voting age population it has to be an extremely high number). Numbers rounded to simplify math for my sluggard math skilz Total pop: 95k Total vote: 80k Total absentee vote: 55k Total day-of vote: 25k Not relaying any of this as a revelation about trends or anything but that high participation number was really interesting. I'll take a look at another Detroit suburb or two and compare later today.

Hard to put the Nazi genie back in the bottle when its cool for you to wear or show off a swastika to your jewish co-workers on a Coast Guard cutter.

seems hard to imagine that any public corruption is anathema to them. Might be a rival in the admin who doesn't like Pulte/Martin.

Israeli Intelligence can be helpful to its friends.

Found this interesting perspective. I have to think the odds of 25th amendment are growing if GOP wants to have a chance to hold the House and Senate.

This schmuck is laying in the weeds for Article 25 or death.

Yes

The reaction to Trump calling for the deaths of his political opponents is good. It has to be the most important story of the day. That and revealing what he did or allowed to happen to pre-teen girls.

good burn

I have a funny about this too.... My coworkers and I were talking Lindberg baby story because my family had a mild connection to Norm Schwartzkopf's dad in the NJ state police back then. How/why not important. Anyway....coworker having to get back to work says "well, now I know something else about the Nuremberg Baby" Which became a thing the rest of the day where we were talking about a potential movie about the baby so bad he committed war crimes. Who was eventually celebrated by Elon Musk.

Semi-related but amusing (to me). I was watching this the other night. You can see the ginormous computers and test sensors back in use then. Funny to me was the comment about the nuclear effects of concern to air crew: "Don't worry about fallout, that is a ground problem."

Anytime I get sad about the US losing its technology edge (try to buy a US-made drone), I think back to this and to the 1960s era computers and people that got this accomplished.

Punish the guilty

Punish the guilty.

this is a tiktok link but its pretty damn right on

I'm sure everyone has a high wage job that needs one

Commentary about the same

Maybe. Good to know. I consider the Investing thread more about your ilk's predations on my retirement savings instead of your ilk's predations on my rights and the future of civilization.

E.G,

I feel like AI shenanigans deserve their own thread. There is just so much of this stuff out there about its failings and people overweighting it as the next step in our evolution.

May it continue.

Seems like some people are troubled by the propaganda that has infected their brain.

If and I only suppose this as a hypothesis...Thune wanted to remove Trump. Navigating this to the Senate where Thune ignored Mike Johnson very rapidly might indicate Thune was not interested in protecting Trump from the coming bow wave of bad things.

I think i might have mentioned the purchase of the King Abdullah Academy here in NOVA. Fairfax County Public Schools recently asked for names and I put Jamal Kashoggi HS as my first choice. Trump likes the guy who had Kashoggi cut up.
