Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Giving liars a platform is why the nation is in peril. Mich never bothered to ever check facts. But the cyber coin train is coming Mich. And it is express.

They didn't expect this: Musk and Trump purge leads to HUGE SPIKE in federal union membership

We contemporary Americans sure make the Bill of Rights look overly generous in some ways.

I have a lot of very smart engineers working for me. Smart is good. But if they are a couple of years out of school they have little practical experience. One of my partners called some of them, "calculation machine guns". You give them a task and some software and they start generating numbers like nobodies business. If you don't check in with them on occasion they may be way off on a tangent, but they have lots of numbers to show for it. Without the experience to know what is real and what is just numbers these people can be dangerous. And they don't always understand the importance of backing things up before you change parameters/code.

"Oh shit, I just deleted the whole project".

"Oh shit, the server went down for a second and I haven't backed up my work for the whole day".

They have never worked on anything with this kind of impact on millions of people. And we have no clue what they are doing, and Eloon may not either.

But it gives plausible deniability to Congress. They didn't vote for this, their constituents can't blame anyone specifically for this interruption of services they need. But in the meantime Eloon does their dirty work and will have immunity for whatever he fucks up.

But this is what the majority of voters asked for. This is what the 20 million who sat out the election didn't think would make any difference for them. This is what wasn't as important as performative votes about Gaza. This is the next four years.
Sorry.
Put in other thread but this one feels more appropriate.
I think these may be important dudes on the team:

“Hello good sir, I would like to purchase this bottle of Tanqueray.”

(skeptically) “Do you have some ID, son?”

“I, ah, may have left it where I’m meddling with $6,000,000,000,000. Will this goon in unmarked battle greens be able to vouch?”

Trump attending SB.
Would you rather:

A. Chiefs win on a last minute Mahomes drive. trump is shown in a positive light several times during the game.
B. Chiefs loose by 30. During the presentation of the trophy trump has a heart attack and leaves the earth.

B

edit: actually, probably A…we were debating last night whether vance or johnson would be better or worse, should something happen to trump

i’m not convinced one way or the other, so i’ll just go with a Chiefs win and immortalization

A.

Trump is gross enough and dumb enough that he will screw up and turn more people and courts against his disgusting policies than Vance would.

Trump may be overplaying his game with Canada and if he keeps it up, he is going to fuck up his psychotic plan. Canada is walking out of this rethinking their neighbors and their interactions with them and it's just going to hurt more every day Americans, especially along the northern border communities and cities.
