If you’re not afraid to be wrong you could choose to believe in anything. There is not a world that exists where microprocessor manufacturing grows in the US without incentives like the CHIPS Act. Especially not when those incentives can be recinded on the whims of whatever lunatic those wacky Americans choose to elect.
not a fan of Trump
But you choose to carry water for him.
That’s funny, I heard from my cousin that Fox News was saying that the White House claimed that tariffs and trade wars were to push companies to restore American manufacturing. But if that were true, why would they want to kill incentives aimed to spark renewed American manufacturing?
Just going by that thumbnail, he could be jerking off two masters.

TIL that Germans that resisted the Nazi Party in WW2 were “useful idiots.”
If only there was some sort of center for disease control that could assist the American public in combating illness. Surely, if such a center did exist, the president wouldn’t hamstring them in some way in which may prevent farmers from taking action against infectious diseases destroying their livestock.
Oh, would you look at that, the president did hamstring the CDC by halting regular release of their scientific reports, and so it is, in fact, on him that bird flu is causing egg prices to soar.

Oof. Y’all are correct about the misunderstanding. I apologize for the heated response. Being wrong kinda takes the fire out of my indignation and now I just feel foolish. Thanks for the lesson, y’all
the “do nothing congress” was miles better
This sentiment is wrong. Making some effort to correct course should be a bare minimum. Accepting the broken system as irreversibly corrupt and doing nothing about it is objectively worse than using the institutions as they are intended. Even if these impeachments go nowhere, let it excite voters to turn out.
If you show up and vote for the party that actually wants to accomplish something, here is an example of what can be done. If you want to see checks and balances in action, vote for the party that is willing to make it happen.
With all the talk of the corruption of the most powerful court in the country, here is what the process looks like to fix it.
Conversely, if you just want to lie down and allow the court to continue to tear down the other “co-equal” branches of government, and regress our rights in an overtly corrupt way, then go ahead and sit back down. Do what you seem to prefer our elected leaders do: Shut up and fuck off. Find another place to commiserate with other self defeated losers.
While I personally do appreciate the level of detail and amount of options provided in this reply, the more straightforward and longer-term solution is to eat the rich.
Why are they censoring the truth?
Oh, that must be really embarrassing, but…
graphic images and disinformation
Maybe work on your reading comprehension to make sure you don’t embarrass yourself like that again.
Signal is not a suitable venue for hosting national security discussions. It’s all laid out in the article that it goes beyond encryption.
The tldr is that the endpoint is insecure. These discussions should not be done on a mobile device, it should not be possible to participate in or view the contents of the discussion out in the open, and it should not even be possible to accidentally invite 3rd parties that were not cleared.
This article goes further in displaying that participants are not adhering to data retention standards, either, to no surprise.
It’s a fascinating article, and really is a revealing example of how profoundly inept this regime truly is.
