  1. I think it might be a little more pragmatic than that. I think they want to take away his ability to do it to other people. It might look vindictive, but he lacks remorse and taking away InfoWars and any capital he could use to rebuild another media company goes a long way to keep him from doing this again.
  2. overview shot:
  3. Installing headlights. Over 30 parts per side. Check out the reflection
  4. I think the stakes are higher as they work though new grifts so that it affects more people directly. We've always had corruption in things like import licenses, liquor or gaming. The problems started accelerating when we got into areas that were for public good and privatizing taxes: Defense became a huge deal during WWII and then during the cold war with the whole military industrial complex. This didn't hurt anyone except more taxes. Then we had the war on drugs and privatization of jails and the profit incentive was more people in jail for petty crimes, now there were classes of people directly affected by this policy. We moved on to making traffic horrible so that we would buy off on privatization of roads with toll roads build with public bonds that transferred the risk to taxpayers and profits to corporations. Privatization and deregulation of our electric providers means the focus is on profit instead of providing a service so when the power goes down and rates skyrocket we get to use more taxes to line the pockets of the corporations that don't have the best interest of the public at the top of their priority list. Now we're doing the same thing with education by intentionally making it bad so that people will buy off on vouchers to enrich out of state business interests. So the more they dig into the "for the public good" areas to privitize things that are really public services the more it affects the population.
  5. Maybe she wanted two dudes at the same time. Watch your cornhole.
  6. Another incompetent Trump appointee, for life. The competent ones quit or were fired for doing their jobs and the rest are corrupt ass kissers, lost their ability to practice law or convicted of crimes.
  7. Even better. I found stats on the actual Republican primary and she is in a dead heat with one of the other 5 but drops once people are read statements about her.
  8. She'll be out of a job soon, trailing her primary opponent by 14 points in a primary with 6 candidates. I think all her trips to NYC were to try and get a cabinet appointment. https://www.coloradopolitics.com/elections/2024/internal-poll-shows-mccorkle-leads-boebert/article_4fd34bbc-1d03-11ef-aa9d-bb703058a29b.html
  9. He figured out the reimbursement and signed the checks after he was president, while in the Oval Office, but yeah, the main acts were in October 2016. Oh, where does that put Madison Cawthorne on the list? Crippled, congressional cuck, sucks cock at coke fueled orgies
  10. I wonder if the Ferderated/fediverse stuff mentioned above is the key to their plans for embedding and that it will work differently than other platforms. The strange thing is it looks like it would be a light lift since you can embed Instagram posts in bulletin board software.
  11. As long as he's not in jail. lol. We can joke about the only reason he can vote is he's on probation and not behind bars. With the convention coming up it would be funny to give him a two week Rikers sentence and he can't go to the convention.
  12. He’ll gain more votes in some circles.
