I don't disagree that Miller (via Trump) will continue to push further. But what is in front of the court right now is not at the level you folks were mentioning, perhaps joking about before. As for the administration refusing to answer a question about going further back, just shows he's not a completely incompetent lawyer as no lawyer should feed into "perhaps" statements. I also would put more money on 9-0 than I would that SCOTUS holds up the EO.

You're thinking like a rational person would think, which is why you are wrong. It's quite clear looking at her what the real issue is, this aging women thinks it's alright to just represent his whims without truly representing the most important thing to Trump, physical looks. She has refused Mar-a-lago face and he's not going to tolerate that. Definitely a legal document, but you can't use it to hide behind illegal acts. As a public official, no idea if it is even legal to sign an NDA related to your work though.

My CEO has advocated for the use of AI and they are giving us a ton of resources and options. He's been very up front, it very well could result in less employees. That said, he has stressed two things 1) take advantage of the training/tools and use our AI. Even if you're not with Verizon, they are skills that will help you elsewhere. 2) the focus from leadership is not simply to cut staff, it's to become more productive and translate that to better products, better customer service, etc. How that shakes out, who knows. But I have embraced it and now that i'm getting better at prompts, i'm getting a ton of good info out of it. I gave up on a project last year as it would require IT to do some work and our department didn't have any more money left for IT. I took a look at it the other day and by the end of the day, I had a script, documentation on how to maintain it, documentation on how to use it, had more functionality that we had originally discussed, and had verified it enough to feel comfortable to turn it over to my team to do some QA testing. I haven't had this much fun at work in quite some time. My brother was at RSA (IT security conference) last week and one of the keynote speakers warned companies that if you're looking to use AI to find efficiencies, and then look to cut payroll to enjoy that benefit, you may get left behind. Companies that find efficiencies and use that additional time to find more efficiencies but also improve products will be the ones that succeed. Today's CEOs and Wall Street demands will result in layoffs, but it definitely is possible that if several start to flounder soon after, we might just find that the AI world still has a place for human workers.

Both sides have been ignoring it for decades, likely at the behest of businesses that enjoyed cheap labor. Biden's initial 'fix' was to simply reclassify folks as asylum seekers. It only exacerbated the issue. You correct about the bipartisan bill in 2024, but that didn't come until those evil southern states began moving a tiny fraction of what they dealt with for years into northern cities like Chicago which began to freak out about having to take care of a couple hundred people. You are correct that it was Trump and the republicans fault the bill didn't pass, but that should not negate the liability of ignoring the issue for decades by everyone prior to that either.

Just an fyi, and note I don't side with Trump in regards to birthright citizenship, but this wouldn't affect Trumps kids, Rubio, anyones grandpa, etc. It would not be retroactive, only from the time the EO was signed. Going forward, U.S. Born children, born to parents that are not citizens or have legal status, would not be citizens. I don't know the status of some of your Grandparents, but this likely would not have effected your parents. This would not effect Marco (both parents were legal residents), it would not affect any of the Trump kids (father was US Citizen and even if he wasn't, mother was legal resident). To me, it's an unconstitutional solution to a legitimate problem, at least a legitimate problem when you refuse (which both sides have) to address over decades. It almost feels like an extra safeguard to limit one of the benefits of coming here illegally should another president step in and again refuse to address the southern border.

I can understand that concern, but man, no way could you stop me if I had a chance to be in that capsule. The idea of being where so few have, getting to see things so few have seen, taking in those views.... I would be in my glory. Can't remember who/what it was, knowing me probably something I listened on a podcast, but they had quotes/conversations from astronauts and many talked about the greatest thing about being in space was a feeling of just how small we are, even as a whole, yet most talked about how connected they felt too. I just tried to look it up, and pretty sure it was the Overview Effect which was a book by Frank White. I have never read it, so likely an article or podcast about it. I've been lucky enough to see a few amazing views on this Earth, it sounds like its the same feeling, but with an exponential force. Found this while searching and watching it now.

No way Iran opens it all the way up even with a toll. They now know we can't control Israel so they will make sure every other country in the world puts pressure on Israel to lay off as well. Easiest way to do that, slowly ramp up flow through the straight, make sure the World feels pain and feels it enough that they turn their anger towards the country that started it all and walked away.

You got all the establishment Dems talking points out in one post. After getting burned by the likes of Tulsi and Fetterman, I understand the concern though. As for the tattoo, I do believe he got it because he thought it was cool, not because of any nazi ties. I do like his opponent better though, just wish she was 35-40 years younger.

I feel like Trump is doing a phenomenal job in ensuring a blue wave later this year. So with that, I politely ask all liberals to let him do his thing, I mean you can protest and get mad, that's all good, but don't give an unforced error. My twitter and a few other news sources I quickly gloss over are going ape **** over this Chicago murder and in digging into it today, seems like Fox News is the only national MSM currently on it. But in short, an illegal alien killed a Loyola University student a few days ago. This is what the Loyola student newspaper is worried about after the fact: https://www.foxnews.com/media/loyola-student-newspaper-apologizes-calling-suspected-murderer-sheridan-gorman-illegal-immigrant

And not that I want to defend my competitor, but those AT&T numbers aren't that bad either (subjective based on the area (rural/urban). We have several years before the cellular wifi at home solutions are able to truly compete with fiber/cable. It's still a great and cheaper option for many that don't utilize their Internet all that much.

Those ping times, while high compared to Fiber/Cable, are incredible. I had a customer that used Hughes Satellite internet for backup and we'd see a 700-800ms, sometimes up to 900ms. They say the average human doesn't start to realize slowness in browsing until you get past the 100-120ms mark.

They should update their policy, and push the industry to join them, in shutting off this service immediately upon any future shutdowns as well.

Yeah, Navy couldn't do it alone, we'd need boots on the ground in western Iran, controlling some portion of the coast. If the plan resulted in zero American deaths, the financial cost would be unreal. Now you still don't have any off ramp and you have boots on the ground which is escalatory by nature. That said, at this point, I think you only have two options, boots on the ground, which in my opinion has to mean regime change and you just hope you 'get it right' this time, or diplomacy. The one that sounds like a much better option, is also exponentially more difficult for this particular administration. Thus why i'm hoping India/China are able to pull this off.

Reason #534 why Trump really is a democrat.

I hope someone is telling Hegseth and Trump this and aren't being pushed out of the room. The Strait is a perfect spot for Iran to focus on, but everything in that Strait is a possible target. Without a doubt i'm confident the US could control all of it if they wanted too and likely make it secure enough to get ships insured and trafficking it, but the cost....holy cow the cost. There is a part of me that hopes there are some backdoor discussions with maybe India or some other Middle Eastern states Iran is willing to talk to on our behalf. In fact I do suspect China and India are talking with Iran to see if there is an arrangement that can be made and will get the US involved when they feel it's appropriate. China and India probably aren't excited to help us out, but Trump screwed this up so bad it's affecting them too and it's sad we need to look to them to help solve this for us.
