I was assured there were many of them. They are to be released this week. Kayleigh wouldn’t bear false witness, would she?

Good job, Trump! I can now check off “Lebensraum” from my “Are Republican’s actually Nazis?” Checklist. Almost full now, then I guess we all lose.

Welp, I guess I can check off “Do unethical medical experiments on people” from my “Are Republicans actually Nazis?” Checklist. Next up: Get Bayer to restart pesticide production to clean up the migrant detention centers.

No, he can’t. The VP is chosen, not hired. He can only be removed by impeachment or resignation.

This whole list amounts to $729 million. That is 20% of the $3.5 billion in additional money we sent in one month to Israel to buy bombs and missiles. You can see what kind of goodwill our government is really interested in “spreading”. Maybe the USAID money was well spent and we could do something about the money that is going to death, misery and creating more hate against us? Crazy talk, I know.

I just remember the drunk suburban girl who would load up the jukebox with Creed and Nickelback at the bar. Nothing kills a good Friday night at the bar faster than that.

I thought Kendrick was very good, and I don’t listen to him or very much of that style music. He is amazingly talented and I thought a top tier showman. In the article, Jack Posobic said that he wished it was Creed (like In the 2001 half time) instead. Since this was the Apple Music streaming halftime show, I looked it up. #1 Streamer of last year was Kendrick, I didn’t see Creed in the top 50. Also Billboard has Kendrick at #4 all year for Streaming, also no Creed. I know Creed had a big resurgence last year touring, but I was around listing to music in 2001 and we all voted that Creed sucks. I didn’t like those people who liked Creed then, and even more so now.

You are correct. I know it is a tax that will be paid by us. These will probably collapse the US economy. I give it 8 months. Then another 6 to start wiping out the rest of the worldwide markets. Maybe two years before we become a warring shithole with nukes.

We have always been at war with East Asia.

They sold out because there weren’t any. UFD tech waited in line at micro center, until they found out how few were available. I believe Steve has a video on calling it a paper launch. The alternative is to buy 4080’s and even 3080’s, until the price becomes too high on used and older GPUs. We saw that happen during covid. Yes, Nvidia makes all kinds of chips, GPUs and especially high end ones are a very small part. A very large and growing segment of Nvidea is also vehicles, which in America is now tariffed on Mexican and Canadian production an additional 25%. Almost all portable electronics have chips from Taiwan or China in them. We are already in a trade war with China, so now we are staring one with the alternative? OpenAI can move to Vancouver all they want, but I bet the 25% tariffs from there will hurt also. Plus, If AI firms don’t need as many of the AI chips, as recently shown, then that market goes down. Google makes their own server chips with cpus produced in… Taiwan.

These tariffs, if not removed, will crash the US economy and possibly the global economy with it. Good luck everyone! or as POTUS says " Jesus didn’t need electricity".

Remember, the tariff is 25-100%. Let’s just say it ends up at 50%. How many gamers will pay 3k for a 5090? It is a mediocre upgrade this generation anyway. Also, both AMD and Intel GPUs are made in Taiwan (TSMC). Nvidia’s profits lately have been coming via ai chips. The Chinese just showed us that those aren’t needed. Jensen and his cousin at AMD are 2 of the smartest CEOs in the country, they know that tariffs like this will crash demand, give China an opening, and possibly wreck the US economy.

Hmmm. Sounds like if California can’t get aid from the federal government, then they will just have to use their own money. I would suggest the comptroller to order all federal tax money in the state sent to Sacramento for use as disaster relief. They can’t prosecute 40 million people not paying taxes.

I have a question about this that I have been thinking about. If they did this, probably through executive order, Would they not create a situation that the US federal government does not have jurisdiction over illegal immigrants? The federal government has jurisdiction or it doesn’t, there is not an in-between. This would shift jurisdiction to the states, which would be a nightmare for the people trying to do this. I suppose you could change the meaning of the word “Jurisdiction”, but since it is in the constitution, that would effectively change the meaning in all federal law, also a nightmare scenario. The only way I can see this type of order or law passed, without amending the constitution, would be to pass the law and try to stall it to deport as many as you could. I think this would not work also, due to lower court judges stopping it, and forcing the supreme court to take it up. Then I guess it would take some mental gymnastics for them to get it passed and not start a civil war.

I think Biden should use his pardon power for good. I don’t have a huge problem with this, but I want him to do something unexpected. Biden should pardon all the married immigrants after his program was recently shot down in court. For those that don’t know, Many immigrants are married to US citizens, but cannot achieve citizenship that you normally would be able to do. It hinges on entering the country Illegally, which requires them to leave for up to 10 years before re applying for citizenship. Biden could pardon the “crime” of illegal entry, this removing the INS statue of not allowing them citizenship.

If we can’t change the court, why not force them into an ideological corner? Challenge the law that artificially limits the size of the house on Constitutional grounds. By going originalist thinking, the house should have 1 rep per lowest population state. This would allow higher population states to massively increase the number of representatives. The electoral collage number is Constitutionally based on the number of senators (2) per state, plus the number of representatives. This allows all votes to be equal.
