  1. ideally something better than last time
  2. Trump Kicks Off Legal Chaos by Revealing Elon Musk Actually Runs DOGE So when he's in court, trump says elmo is just an advisor. When he's talking to the Saudi sovreign wealth fund, elon is in charge of the now most powerful department in government.
  3. just so you know, the "whirlwind" is a MAGA flavor of brownshirts.
  4. It really is remarkable how much these republicans and trump voters hate the idea of being validly compared to nazis.... and then keep on doing nazi shit https://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/article/kprc-video-republicans-20177616.php They REALLY didn't appreciate the comparison to nazi germany removing books from schools they considered "un-german" Cy-fair is removing entire chapters from their textbook curriculum to remove mentions to climate change, vaccines, and diversity.
  5. TBH for Kash his wikipedia page is a good source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kash_Patel#Promotion_of_conspiracy_theories Pretty crazy that the head of the FBI starred in russian propaganda films just a few months ago
  6. yeah no kidding, a running google doc or something where we could decorate each entry with a link would be a horrifying thing to see in 4 years
  7. For some extra excitement about Patel, it's not like he's written a children's book about trump being a king or anything
  8. GRUhorn, you're the only cryptoperson getting banned with any sort of regularity lol. It's impressive how you just won't quit You missing the irony of a bitcoin maxi going off and scamming with his own cryptocoin is an equally impressive display of cognitive dissonance.
  9. https://ukraine.news-pravda.com/en/world/2025/02/20/32838.html The United States has stopped the sale of weapons to Ukraine The United States has stopped the sale of weapons to Ukraine, - the head of the Defense Committee of the Rada "According to my information, the weapons (from the USA) that were being sold (to Ukraine. - ed.), - supplies have stopped. Those companies that were supposed to transfer these weapons are now waiting, because there is no solution," Roman Kostenko said. The reasons for this decision are still unknown. "And everyone is waiting to see if this decision will be made in order to supply weapons here, at least for money," he added.
  10. AP: A news conference between Zelenskyy and Trump’s Ukraine envoy is canceled amid growing tensions KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — A news conference that was planned to follow talks between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and U.S. President Donald Trump’s Ukraine envoy was canceled Thursday as political tensions deepened between the two countries over how to end the almost three-year war with Russia. The event was originally supposed to include comments to the media by Zelenskyy and retired U.S. Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, but it was changed at the last minute to a simple photo opportunity where the two posed for journalists. They did not deliver statements or field questions as expected. The change was requested by the U.S. side, Ukrainian presidential spokesman Serhii Nikiforov said. Kellogg’s trip to Kyiv coincided with recent feuding between Trump and Zelenskyy that has bruised their personal relations and cast further doubt on the future of U.S. support for Ukraine’s war effort. Dozens of journalists gathered at Ukraine’s presidential office in Kyiv after being invited to take photos and observe a news conference with Zelenskyy and Kellogg. As the meeting began, photographers and video journalists were allowed into a room where the two men shook hands before sitting across from each other at a table. Journalists were then informed that there would be no news conference with remarks by the leaders or questions from reporters. Nikiforov gave no reason for the sudden change except to say that it was in accordance with U.S. wishes. The U.S. delegation made no immediate comment. The White House did not immediately respond to questions about why the news conference was called off.
  11. The state of Texas subsidizes their operations, and pays them whenever the cost of electricity is too high for them to profit (this is when they are paid to shut down for energy demand). Otherwise, they tend to seek the areas with weakest zoning laws and cheapest power. Definitely a shot in the dark, but 500W at the wall for total system power with a 100% utlized 1080 doesn't feel off. But you're exactly right on the required energy per coin and transaction is definitionally going to continue to increase exponentially
  12. This is not fucking happening. You have heard it repeated so many times that you believe it must be true, otherwise many people would not be saying it. Post some actual citations to your claims if you want to try to argue that your apparent single biggest issue is even a real problem.
  13. or better yet, "a democrat like Tulsi Gabbard...."
  14. PEX is great and extremely durable, there's some good freeze tests on YouTube
  15. Unfortunately, the president believes he does not need the consent of the governed. He (thinks he) decides the law for all agencies under him, including the armed forces. Gonna be interesting to see how things go if all parties stay on their current course and heading
  16. This thread got started when the mods let one of the "hooray the government is shooting protesters" threads get out of hand during the 2020 summer and fall of love. Jimmy didn't make this thread or title - Immamac did lol. The mods memory holed a bunch of abhorrent shit in the DT thread because it would have been extremely embarrassing for some of the posters to keep up, and moved a bunch of posts complaing about the mods into this new thread
  17. That's a pretty generous interpretation lol, there's not alot of arguing about policy going on - it's trying to get TB91 to accept the reality of what's happening right now and the consequences of his vote. Trans policy, as always, is the only thing this kinda person is capable of bringing up. He's not even replying to other prompts or questions.
  18. there's a shocking number of property owners and managers that I see with active sprinklers yearround maintaining swamps, even after they've drowned all their St. Augustine
  19. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_dissonance
  20. my guy you need to get off of facebook and fox news. This shit is not happening in the school nurses' office or to the scope and scale you imply. You are spouting goebbels-levels of propaganda that's disassociated with reality right now.
  21. Der Sturmabteilungen, ja? Once trump has his official paramilitary force that's only answerable to him and him alone, we will be in the "reign of terror" section of the holocaust memorial
  22. he didn't salute their fucking generals and gush about how he was in love with their totalitarian leadership https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/we-fell-in-love-trump-and-kim-shower-praise-stroke-egos-on-path-to-nuclear-negotiations/2019/02/24/46875188-3777-11e9-854a-7a14d7fec96a_story.html
  23. This represents the streetfighting phase of the fascist takeover. Visiting the National Holocaust Meuseum and Memorial page on hitler's rise to power is rather chilling when you realize how similar it is to today: Just to really hammer home how similar trump and hilter's rhetoric is, lets update those bullet points for current trump talking points: During election campaigns, Donald Trump won followers by playing on people's hopes. He promised to fix the economy and put people back to work (no change needed there) return America to the status of a great and RESPECTED world power again Make claims on new territories based on century-old misinterpretations of history (Panama Canal, Greenland) create a strong authoritarian executive office ("I will be a dictator on day one") May be some interesting reading and a small history lesson for @Texasborn91
  24. Your vote indicates that you believe she should not have the freedom and liberty to live in the way she wishes to. Or any other trans person. This animus of hate was enough for you to overlook everything else about trump and pull the lever for this guy
  25. Your vote says differently. Your vote says you think Troph is subhuman. Be honest with yourself about what you fucking voted for. Christ, talking to you is like a scene out of Man in the High Castle.
