I think pops had the guns while junior was investigated.

Trump’s America
The deadline to sign up is January 1, and was really December 15, so anyone that has attempted to sign up has seen their premium double, at least. At this point, the lack of subsidy is baked in. Not sure how it changes anything for 2026.

Affordable Watches
Haha went to three because that is a deal I just could not pass up. Saw lots of Fossil, but no Zodiac. Little surprised these would sell out as for non-fanatics, they're kinda uggo and it's an obscure brand. How belated is this?

Trump’s America
This does not describe his base. This describes something else entirely, maybe the persuadable middle or something. I have been told repeatedly that everyone voted for Trump because of his racism and otherism. And I certainly don't disagree with that as pertains to the base. I concede that Vance has the potential to appeal to a more rational class of voters. But I don't think there are enough rational Trump supporters to get him elected.

2023 Thread of Racism in America
She sounds drunk, or mentally handicapped. Must be rough for her living in Clearwater, where 1 of 5 is Hispanic. And that whole Florida name must be a constant reminder.

Trump’s America
I mean maybe. We have often discussed that Trump is sui generis and I think that's very true. That 30-40% base he has maintained is almost solely attributable to his peculiar traits that no one else can duplicate.

I for one welcome our new AI overlords
Excellent post. I meant to extend that out to a criticism of Cuban, but neglected to. I think you're absolutely correct.

Trump’s America
So, from what I can see of the VF article, there are some very subtle defenses of Trump and certain elements of Trumpco. That seems to normalize the administration. But I have no idea who is the audience for that? It's way too subtle for the base and they ain't reading, period, much less VF.

Elise Stefanik needs her own thread. She's gonna be a GQP big player.
Also just a side note. Kathy Hochul is very attractive at her age.

Trump’s America
It's amusing that one of the "exhibits" of that display was paid for by a government agency, created by the most socialist president we ever had and no doubt created on the government dole by a drunken layabout artist. At least he was white. Well, sorta. Alexander Dux was born in Austria-Hungary in 1898 and immigrated here with his family in 1910.

She's a fucking cunt. She needs to take her Luka-less Mavericks and get the fuck out.

Trumps War on Everything
Well, technically, it wasn't the assassinated prince, it was his petty, jealous, inbred haemophiliac relatives.

Trumps War on Everything
Does it trouble you at all that drug smugglers, common criminals like Juan Orlando Hernandez or El Chapo, are being murdered on the high seas without the due process accorded to at least Hernandez? Or that the actual victims are just ordinary people trying to get by, maybe a bit compromised?

Trumps War on Everything
The only thing that's even remotely close to that is I believe Chevron or Conoco (C company) had actual leases on Lake Maracaibo. Chavez nationalized that, but Chevron still operates there although I'm sure it's on lower margins. Nice to know that Chevron is us and we are Chevron (or Conoco).

No one on here watches Rachel Maddow and if they do it's for lulz.

Trump’s America
Well, yeah, assuming the unpopularity of Trumpco holds, he'll be tainted among the rationals. He also has I think about zero appeal to the base. They. Have. To. Have. The. Base. How so?

Trump’s America
Why is this troubling? I get that Vance is a) a lot smarter than Trump and b) apparently in the thrall of YarvinThielco, which makes him very dangerous indeed. I also think he's unelectable.

Rob Reiner found stabbed
"Tough love" or loving from a distance is the approved way to deal with active addict family members. Anything else risks enablement of the addict, not to mention safety and property of the family. Still, it's incredibly hard to watch a close family member self-destruct. Many times, that leads in fairly short order to a rock bottom for the addict and the necessary realization that they need help and acceptance of it and recovery. Other times, it's going to lead to long term homelessness, jail, prison, and mental institutions. I had seen an article in connection with the film About Charlie where the Reiners had used this approach for many years, but Nick remained incorrigible and they gave up and began enabling him again. Fucking brutal. I've spent a lot of time talking to and listening to the stories of addicts and the worst things I have ever heard inevitably concern their addict children.

Have you a valediction, boyo?
Funny how many of the great lines came from James Cromwell.

Charlie Kirk got ded, Erika Kirk grifts in place
I have this persistent thought that real life before color tv and movies actually occurred in black and white. Like, my parents grew up in black and white.

Also, thanks to a con man, they started to vote and thereby try to impose their batshittery on the rest of us.

I bet you were one before Trump. Libertarian that is. You've apparently always been a retard. Interesting factoid from the Migration Policy Institute, which is credible. Biden Administration let in a little over 5 million immigrants. It also naturalized a record 3.4 million immigrants.

Those aren't actually encounters. Encounters are detentions and expulsions. Now, a detention might later result in expulsion, or release pending asylum or other grounds for legal entry.

That article does nothing to explain what those costs might be and how they are calculated. The sources cited are highly political. the Committee on the Judiciary being headed by notorious straight shooter Gym Jordan, backed up by the wonderful Darrell Issa and Andy Biggs. FAIR was founded by a white supremacist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Tanton There are more sanguine estimates that they cost us very little if anything at all.

Tell us, then, what is an "encounter"?
