  1. No, he will let Elon continue to be the CEO.
  2. Sure, kids will die, but how can we know if they are dying of measles or with measles?
  3. Not like anyone is going to buy one, anyway.
  4. The current system is better for both the SEC and Big 10 just about every year. Last year wasn't normal.
  5. The youths that voted for him aren't going to college.
  6. This is why we have a second amendment.
  7. Well, now people won't know if the comment was racist or homophobic.
  8. It shows the card information, too.
  9. They probably should also add Mexico and give them nukes to dissuade us from going to war with their cartels that we just declared to be terrorists.
  10. Anyone sharing a couch with Vance is going to have that expression.
  11. Rural hospitals are going to close in every state. They are very hard to keep open, even with Medicaid funding.
  12. As someone who manages some grant-funded projects that have been paused due to being funded under Biden's Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, there is definitely a lot of waste, fraud, and abuse going on. Waste - Construction projects have been put on hold. It costs money daily to keep equipment on-site, and if you send them home, it costs tens of thousands of dollars to mobilize back out. I'm certain that some projects are being cancelled altogether, costing millions of dollars for zero benefit. Fraud - The government signed contracts agreeing to pay for a portion of these projects, and some are being cancelled outright, mid-project. That is fraudulent, just like it would be fraudulent for me to take the money and then not work on the project as described in the agreement. Abuse - None of this shit is authorized by Congress or law. DOGE can't even tell us who is in charge of it, and they are overriding the people who actually are in place to monitor and evaluate Federal employees to fire them based on emails their AI is reviewing. I think the Sesame Street in Egypt grant is ridiculous just like everyone else does, but there is still someone, probably an American citizen, on the other side of that agreement who in good faith signed a contract from the United States to purchase all the equipment, hire the film crew, relocate to Egypt, and produce that show. There is nothing fraudulent about any of that.
  13. Trump says he's going to sell 5 million of these and pay off the national debt using the $25 trillion that raises. How many millions of them are we selling at the $1M price?
  14. We aren't operating under the constitution anymore. Don't even have a country, really.
  15. I just have a really hard time believing that someone with the ability to spend $5 million would want to spend that to move here. I'm looking at places that offer golden visas so I can move out. This isn't a very affordable place to retire and we have other, much cheaper options if you are young and looking to move here to make money.
