He ain’t no Golden boy that’s for sure.

Now that ain’t workin’, that’s the way you do it
Lemme tell ya, them guys are dumb

And we do feel that we produce a superior product here in the United States, and we just need to have the markets.

lol. lmao even.

Facts don’t care about your feelings bitch!

You don’t understand they need to be able to dogwhistle somehow. /s

Interesting choice of number here. /s

Since it seems you’re asking a question in good faith I’ll try to answer. I’m not the person you replied to but here…

I think the main thing that has changed is the disappearance of Elon Musk. Last time around there was what I consider to be valid concern that Musk would pay his flunkies out of pocket to keep working and tearing apart the Federal government during the shutdown. With most Federal employees going home during a shutdown, it would leave very few at the helm to be able to stop DOGE in their iteration at the time. Musk was making hay at the time of how they could do things on weekends because no one was there to stop them, and it was very reasonable to consider that he would personally pay his flunkies to tear shit apart while people were furloughed during a shutdown. As frustrating as it was, and as much as I fucking loathe the likes of Chuck Schumer and his corporate cock sucking ilk, I personally did see Musk as a legitimate threat if the shutdown occurred last time around. Musk is gone and there is no one to pay DOGE employees to keep working while everyone else goes home, so it stands to reason that you might actually maybe get these old chucklefucks on board for doing something right for once. Not making any promises, though, as I agree with another poster that characterized Schumer as a last minute pants pisser.

Google in the pocket of extremists and helping them wipe their sordid history from the internet.

The future of the US.

He was an asshole before that though.

I am very likely to be one of those deaths when the Medicaid rules change on January 1st, 2027.

Washington state minimum wage is pretty high and increases based on cost of living every year. The income cutoff for Medicaid is pretty low.

I will have to be working at least 20 hours a week in 2027, and there’s a significant chance that in doing so I will end up making more than the Medicaid limit and be forced to pay for health insurance that won’t cover nearly as much of the $18k a month without insurance meds that I very likely may have to take for the rest of my life to stay alive.

To not have to do this I would need to give up working and apply for disability. Even though I have cancer I would need legal disability status to avoid the work requirements since I don’t have children. Even though I am in my forties I am considered one of those “able bodied young men abusing Medicaid to stay home playing video games.”

It’s fucking sickening and I am furious about it.

Thought for sure it was gonna flip over on the dismount.

This is the internet, maybe build it yourself instead of demanding others do the work for you?

You could also just as easily only paste in the encoded part and put the decoded bit back into the link yourself.

I don’t trust corporations OR law enforcement officers.

They both have interest in their own stories being true, both for PR purposes.

Unfortunately vast swaths of the justice system are in the Heritage Foundations pocket and can and will make those soldier’s lives an absolute living hell while they’re trying to fight and prove it was an illegal order.

Remember, the system was built to defer to power (like how the words of police are always considered trusted and of the highest quality by courts) and to only allow those with infinite amounts of money to be able to appeal obviously bad decisions. While waiting on justice, they may spend years inside a cell for refusing to follow a legal order.

Unless it happens en masse with the majority of the Guard doing it all at the same time, the first individuals who choose to say no will suffer greatly.

I remember Joe Biden claiming he wrote it. (C-SPAN video)

Much of its rejected proposals were ultimately recycled as the USAPATRIOT Act of 2001 with Joe Biden’s vocal endorsement.

This show didn’t get enough love while it was on the air. Such a great show.

The episode with Conner O’Malley as Trevor is my favorite though.

“Mysteriously” why not check the mod log? [email protected] has rules that they have to be actual news sources, not the MeidasTouch post on Meta’s Threads app.

I posted on that same one, but I looked at the modlog and the mod who removed it asked to use an actual news source or just post that source in a more appropriate community.

This kind of conspiratorial thinking doesn’t help us.
