  1. I think the tariffs and threat of same created huge uncertainty in a lot of sectors such that business plans were scaled back and put on hold. Certainly true of many of my clients.
  2. Probably important to note that the only real substantive changes Biden made to immigration were to permit asylum claims while remaining in US and not treating first unlawful entry as a crime (also closely tied with family separation policies). The real difference is the perception that Biden policy was more lenient than Trump's, driving people to the border.
  3. Given that it isn't information about Israel or Palestine, I think it should be allowed.
  4. Looks like Trump might be grabbing ol Sus by the pussy.
  5. Well if by "done" you mean "fucked shit up," then yeah maybe, probably.
  6. She is a complete mercenary and this is another indication that there is life after MAGA/Trump. In other words, at this point she doesn't give a shit about alienating Trump because she can find other gigs.
  7. Fairly shocking. https://variety.com/2025/film/news/james-woods-rob-reiner-death-remarks-1236609668/ James Woods criticizes Trump over Reiner remarks. Actually talking like a semi-sane person.
  8. I did a quick google (really duckduckgo because fuck Google) when ana brought that up and read the Biden (mis)quotes. Unfortunately, my skepticism meter was on low sensitivity, so I didn't dig any further. I didn't pay a great deal of attention to Biden's campaign because voting for him was a foregone conclusion for me. This is the kind of thing I look out for, usually, on #bothsides, and why I tend to be skeptical of many "interpretations" of what someone says. I like to see it straight from their mouths, or text, or whatever.
  9. To be fair, I thought ana was talking about the board being skeptical of the vaccine, rather than some other "they."
  10. Yeah, that is a terrible awful thing to deal with. The answer is almost always the hard line. I'd say always, because it's probably correct. But absolutes make me nervous.

  12. I didn't say you condone it. But on the bullshit notion that Antifa and left-wing terrorism are our number one national terrorism problem, the American counterterrorism apparatus is being directed toward Trump's political enemies. https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-bondi-memo-s-quiet-rewriting-of-domestic-terrorism-rules
  13. Because your team is obvious. Your use of idiot terms like "Mainstream." This isn't media. This is data analysis. More, from the Libertarian Cato Institute. https://www.alexnowrasteh.com/p/politically-motivated-violence-is Eighty-three percent of those murdered since 1975 were committed by the 9/11 terrorists (Figure 1). The Oklahoma City Bombing accounts for about another 5 percent. Those murdered since 2020 account for just 2 percent. Terrorists inspired by Islamist ideology are responsible for 87 percent of those murdered in attacks on US soil since 1975 (Table 1). Right-wingers are the second most common motivating ideology, accounting for 391 murders and 11 percent of the total. The definition here of right-wing terrorists includes those motivated by white supremacy, anti-abortion beliefs, involuntary celibacy (incels), and other right-wing ideologies. Left-wing terrorists murdered 65 people, or about 2 percent of the total. Left-wing terrorists include those motivated by black nationalism, anti-police sentiment, communism, socialism, animal rights, environmentalism, anti-white ideologies, and other left-wing ideologies. Those murders that are politically motivated by unknown or other ideologies are a vanishingly small percentage, which is unsurprising because terrorists typically want attention for their causes.
