  1. I figured it was part of the schtick
  2. lol. Maybe. She bought it April 2, so basically the exact same value as today. I don’t believe it’s possible for them to sustain that value with the whole world basically protesting Musk. And if he leaves, the value crashes even further
  3. Seriously?!? This is the first I’m hearing they actually expect stimulus checks… but it’s based solely on the fact we got Covid checks? Like, his platform is just to give us money for no reason? I mean, my firm did quite well processing PPP loans, so I wouldn’t complain about something like that as the economy craters due to tariffs. Maybe we’re on to something here. Fuck it. Bring on the pain, baby!
  4. But we’re all ill informed now because the FDA isn’t reporting on outbreaks anymore. You’ll just have to rely on word of mouth. Might just have to give up chicken for the foreseeable future
  5. What? Damn near every elected Republican cowered to him. That's why he’s in office. If only a handful of them would actually standup, he would’ve been removed from office during one of his prior impeachments. They could also do it now. Or, they could just do their jobs and cut out this tariff bullshit, pass some laws re: immigration and deportation, laws to make it even more clear that due process fucking matters. They could do something to get more gear and equipment to Ukraine. I can go on for days. They simply aren’t standing up to the bully.
  6. I don’t really know where to post this, but I just found out my MIL cashed out a bunch of blue chip stocks and dropped a couple hundred grand into Tesla over the last couple weeks. Fuck. At least, I’ve been told it’s only a couple hundred. God help us if it’s a lot more than that.
  7. Yeah, I’m waiting to see more on that. Because at face value, it seems very very bad. From what I gather, the allegation is that she told the dude and his attorney to leave her courtroom through a side door, after somehow being made aware that there were ICE agents in the courthouse coming for him. I don’t think that’s illegal. Is his attorney also guilty of obstructing an investigation? What if I have a client that I know is going to get arrested if they show up for a hearing that I could attend for them myself, and I tell them “just stay home, I’ll make the appearance for you” … is that illegal?
  8. The article says his wife is going pro se on the habeas action. That seems very ill advised considered how shady the other side seems to be acting in some/all? of the other cases. I’m surprised there isn’t a big firm or two taking on all of these cases in some form or fashion. And likely for free or very reduced cost. Immigration attorneys, in my opinion and experience, are by far the most passionate of our profession. They aren’t chasing money, it’s truly a calling for them.
  9. Crazy this matches our best 1st round total
  10. Hell yeah
  11. Uhhh
  12. Nice little soaking rain. Won’t be much in the gauge at this rate, but enough to prep the ground for watering day tomorrow
  13. Bottom left appears to be Channing Tatum
  14. One person agrees with me, everybody else is shitting on me; therefore, the public almost unanimously agrees with me.
  15. They issue that too late for the cell that just passed over downtown? Or are they expecting em to keep popping up?
  16. Severe thunderstorm watch just popped up on tv. Radar shows nothing. What the hell is going on?
  17. Comments like these are great. Even the morons know it’s not true. Every little irrefutable lie helps chip away at their blind obedience. It also allows us easy opportunities to make fun of him when we’re around the morons, and they’re forced to take it without response
  18. Remember when they said people with kids should get extra votes?
  19. I wouldn’t have high hopes of that. Had relatives that “disowned” Trump after J6 and talked shit about him for quite some time. I don’t think they thought he’d be running again, so there was no harm in their talk. That lasted right up until it became clear he was going to be the R nominee. Then they were right back on the Trump train. I’d suspect there are a lot of folks doing the same right now, on the assumption that he won’t try to run again and they won’t be in the position to flip back (because reasons).
  20. Yeah, as I do every time I have family in town, I withdraw several grand in cash to pick up the bill when out eating. That’s not weird at all It has nothing to do with unreportable income I don’t want to deposit at the bank
  21. If I were defending the contractor, I’d argue that the door had clearly been tampered with. Somebody obviously broke in and tossed the door 300 yards away before turning on the gas and leaving
  22. It’s not going to result in less beef eating, it’s just going to shift where the cattle are raised. Not going to do anything for the overall health of the planet. Probably make it worse since the new producing countries will have even lower standards than we do
  23. Haha! Wat? He claimed to be an attorney? Would’ve muted him right off the bat if I’d seen it
