Tariffs in general aren't new, but Trump's tariffs were applied haphazardly and poorly determined because he doesn't understand what they are. Avoiding that uncertainty entirely is a good idea.

Not very surprising. That's because we killed them everywhere else to make room for us.

Supporting oil and fracking isn't even in the same ballpark as wanting to deregulate and eliminate the EPA entirely.

It's because on the surface it looks like the classic bullshit "both sides" claim. Where one side is clearly worse but they try to make it seem like both are similar.

Not sure if this is different to be honest. The Rs have been trying to undermine the EPA for decades, there's a long history there that shouldn't be ignored even if recent D admins haven't been great.

I don't have the time to do a deeper dive at the moment, likely others don't want to even bother, so they just downvote since a good 90% of the time the both sides type responses are disingenuous.

At this point I think I'd take my chances. More likely to die if an officer is on scene in this country now.

STIs have been a massive issue in nursing homes for decades. What's special about boomers? Just that they're now the largest generational influx?

I still find it absolutely amazing that anyone appointed by an official isn't barred from being involved in any investigation or judicial proceeding involving that official.

That won't stop them either. They'll just use it anyway. These companies never delete anything they might be able to use. At least not willingly.

The Green Party isn't doing shit to try to fix the system, and is just as hypocritical as the bigger parties.

It's a throwaway vote whether you want to admit it or not.

You know that's 100% accurate. It's EA. If there's anything that seems good for players, it's a mistake.

You think that will stop them? They'll just do it and pay a comparatively small fine to the government in a decade after they get around to investigating it. And that's the best case scenario. More realistically nothing will ever happen.

The Satanic Temple is already recognized as a tax exempt religious institution by the IRS.

 

NASA and Boeing officials pushed back Friday on headlines that the commercial Starliner crew capsule is stranded at the International Space Station but said they need more time to analyze data before formally clearing the spacecraft for undocking and reentry.
