I'm just here for the punch and pie. I'm a leftist. I'm not a liberal I'm not progressive. That means I'm actually left of center. Not cosplaying as.

And it'll probably be another 18 months until it's finished, probably another 20 to 24 months until the machines are finished being built to put into the plant and then it'll take anywhere from 8 to 12 months to get it up to full capacity. That's 10 years.

Yeah I get into this discussion a lot. And I have to explain to people there's a battery factory 90 mi from me did they "started building" in 2018. They didn't break ground until 2022. They still haven't made a battery from that plant yet it's not finished and it's 2025.

I mean let's be real it's going to take years to find all of the locations to even start negotiating with the municipal governments to put a manufacturing facility there. If we started tomorrow it would be 8 years before the first factory was open.

China's not going to go towards a consumption buy shit from the US economy. And in two to three years the US isn't going to have a manufacturing base in two to three years they may have all of the spots they're going to build manufacturing picked out.

It is but we don't have a working Congress that's going to hold them to the Constitution. Judges can't set their own cases The DOJ is not going to charge him or try and get him to stop doing it Congress isn't going to do anything The states could but I don't know

It was never debunked that Trump personally didn't collude. Mueller's report was flawed the FBA withheld documents and evidence from him if I remember correctly shit so many things happen it's hard to keep track. And nothing was ever pursued.

A Florida judge, Ed Artau, who is hearing Trump's libel lawsuit against the Pulitzer Prizes, used a routine ruling as an opportunity to call for the overturning of the Supreme Court's decision in NYT v. Sullivan.

He is the latest federal or state judge to join this campaign against Sullivan.

I mean this is like listening to Schumer after the fucking Clinton election. Don't worry for every blue collar Democrat vote we lose we'll pick up two or three moderate Republican suburban votes. And that's worked out real well.

What did your billionaire puppet Master's tell you to do Hakeem. If you could just be honest with that I would know where we're heading. I mean if you're going to fuck around and not do anything remotely impactful can we at least speedrun this. I want to claim asylum somewhere.

So we're still not going to win the house or do anything and nothing's going to change in this place is going to turn into a fucking dystopia. Got it I wish it would hurry up and go ahead and do that so that other countries will allow people to claim asylum. could speed run this process? Thanks

I hear China's doing some amazing research. And if I was the Chinese government I would advertise the hell out of welcoming any US researchers and offer immigration support. Any researchers working on PhDs I would mandate that all of their credits transfer to a Chinese university and research

No but they pushed out all the people who had opened investigations on SpaceX. So it's kind of the same

I mean I would probably subscribe just to help out the expenses. But I don't really care what he says in social media or speeches. And I don't hate anybody enough to make them have to sit down and listen to his speeches and then parse out all the coherent parts.

I'm just saying it dilutes our criticism. Sure call out that he has no ability to do this and the fact that he did should be addressed but won't be. But to tie the fact that he did it to a tragic incident that really doesn't have one to do with the other just weakens the criticism. That's all.

You are placing blame on an incident that is probably seven managerial levels above the actual decision making.

This might get some hate. I am all for throwing shade and hate towards Trump & co. But I don't see how the director of the FAA being gone caused this accident. The director is not an ATC. It isn't like him being gone was one less seat "in the tower" and that directly affected coverage and caused it.

I misunderstood their statement. My brain translated what you said as The discrimination and productivity loss is attributed to DEI policies.

Its going to wreck education for the working class. The wealthy will still be able to send their children to schools to mingle with other wealthy people so that they can replace their parents once they matriculate through their wealthy networking system that lasts 16 years.

Is it sentient? Not to downplay the difficulty of coding a predictive text generator. But there is a world of difference between a system that replicates it's predictive text capabilities and a sentient program that is self-aware and autonomous making its own decisions.

In which DEI policies are discrimination? And loss of productivity and where are you getting those numbers. I want to see the study that shows that between two candidates who have equal experience and education, making an effort to choose the one from a marginalized group hurts productivity

I don't have a credit card. And I don't use my bank card on the internet. So I don't I don't use eBay it may they may be there I don't know I don't use eBay

Yeah You really have to look for very specific things. Like I don't shop for shoes or clothes or anything like that. I'm searching for heater control boards for a aqua hot prevost water heater. Or control switches for 91 Volkswagen Fox. Things that aren't going to get a lot of searches.
