anyone who looked at the track we were on and thought there was some smooth political move to reverse course lacks common sense or any real-world experience. You can disagree with the moves he's making but "radical" is not a rational criticism. I'd say let's let it play out before we pass judgement but that's just me.

the new proposal is “terrible for Ukraine”




But at least there will be a Ukraine. They want the US to essentially partner with them to endure the existence of their country, but gain nothing but satisfaction of helping someone in need?
Well, the door may not agree, but I went 6 to midnight.

Cutting the government is basically unheard of, so you are technically correct.

The minerals are worth more than the 24 trillion when you consider the stakes of the chip production supply chain and racing China to ASI and likely global domination.

But even at the stated monetary value alone, if you're not built for it, you build for it.

is framed as "gun control" instead of the war on guns or the war on gun violence?




So you're asking why we have a "war on drugs" or a "war on terror", but no (official) "war on guns"?

That's a pretty stupid question. The comparison is apples and pomegranites.

Can you elaborate on what's confusing you?

Why would you compare a illegal/undesirable behaviors or substances to a constitutionally protected right?

It will start the next time an administration refuses to enforce the law against violent protesters. Vigilantes will confront them and people will die which will kick off more confrontation.

For now, law and order is being restored.

Japan is a relatively small country and got hit with 2 nuclear bombs and only lost less than a fraction of a percent of their population and became one of the best countries in the world not long after it.



Jeez, this is a bad take.

Nuclear weapons are nearly 2000x more powerful than the ones dropped on Japan.

The US was the only country in the world with nukes and so there was no exchange as there would be in a modern nuclear war.

The US spent a lot on reconstruction in Japan.

No one is funding any reconstruction after a nuclear war as there will be no winners, just different levels of losers.

I need to get a tesla to get on this list. I'm about 45 mins from Nashville, so close enough for one of these betas to give it a shot, but my place sits back in the woods at the end of 1/2 mile of winding gravel driveway and dead ends into my driveway which is guarded by 2 very large and loud dogs. I don't think anyone would have the courage to come all the way to my door to key a car, but the entertainment factor would be off the charts if they did.
