  1. Well, sure. But the sale of Trump branded "freedom masks" will be acceptable.
  2. Well, yeah, but you see, the silk road guy had quite a collection of bitcoin. Assuming he still has access to them, I'm guessing there will be a nice chunk of change headed to the Trump Presidential Library fund.
  3. Or I. Or anyone I work with. And most, if not everyone here. But the rules really don't apply to him. Shit, nothing does. He's a convicted felon, and one can argue "see! he's not above the law!". Yes, yes he is. Wake me up when he suffers any consequences of, well....anything.

  5. He's such a piece of shit. All he knew is they were J6 "hostages" and needed freed. So, an EO was shoved in front of him, he signed it...and here we are.
  6. I asked my fed wife if it does; the EO excludes (paraphrasing) "positions of public safety" from the hiring freeze. So...yeah. Her agency had a really nice gig in Houston that she had been strongly encouraged to apply for; we talked about it last week, and I told her that it might not be available after the 20th. Her agency had mulled this possibility over, and their counsel felt that as long as the job was listed/made available prior to the 20th, then it would still be open after a potential EO for a hiring freeze, as in past hiring freezes. Nope. The EO shut down any opening (and as we saw upthread, job offers as well) nation-wide, except for "public safety".
  7. Meanwhile, in Lafayette, LA:
  8. You know, if there any certain acts or things that you might enjoy, now is the time to start calling favors.
  9. I've got the ESPN 4K channel on YTTV, and there are no commercials, nor is there a halftime show. Just a solitary camera angle with muted audio during breaks. It's glorious, and I'm glad I didn't have to reach for the remote and mute the damned tv if I had seen that.
  10. Just wait until tomorrow, where Musk will have a red armband with some kind of logo on his left bicep. It will be dismissed as a "fashion statement".
