The private university can enroll whoever they want, but the executive branch literally controls immigration/foreign affairs. So the students can attend remotely.

Bernie is the compromise.

This dude fucking sucks and doesn’t understand the purpose of the 2nd amendment. Stopped reading there.

It’s just this. Not anything to do with how local taxes work.

Neither is this boon dongle, just like “star wars” before it.

Why do you say that? It’s a metal that can be hammered extremely thinly, gold leaf etc.

Dems literally only talk about tax deductions for rich fucks that will absolutely not help anyone else. It’s absurd in the comical sense.

Nah, the joke is the military generals who have been in charge for so long are rubes and can’t even do corruption right. The Boeing shareholders/board members who are being paid these billions of dollars are the ones enjoying $4000 dollar wine and imported Kobe Beef steaks with the lobbyists

Overcomplication is a feature of privatized military production because it’s far more efficient at creating profits.

100% this. But my question is that since the US is the largest weapon dealer in the world, both in terms of dollar amount and number of planes etc, who the hell are buying these things and why? Surely when you are purchasing something that costs billions of dollars you have to account for the on-going support costs too? Most countries don’t have the luxury of ignoring costs do they?

I’m not sure why anyone would be “panicking” about the loss of a the latest US boondongle? The US MIC hasn’t been building things for fighting performance or efficiency since at least the end of the cold war, and probably before. An f-35 “almost” being shotdown just sound like boeing get’s another trillion dollars to build an “f-35+.”

All the career generals get to spend the next 10years instructing their minions to write intellectually bankrupt papers about how the US needs to engage our “strategic partners” to match this “new threat”. Honestly they could probably just copy the slurry of papers that were written after 9/11 about “low-tech threats” that the next generation of arms needs to deal with. Meanwhile the generals will be taken to the Capital Grill for their weekly lobbyist meetings where they get to drink $40 glasses of wine and eat $100 steaks because they are the most basic, worthless and craven people that our shitty political system has put in charge of trillions of dollars over their careers.

Regardless those people aren’t “panicking.”

What lack of theory does to a mfer.

In America there is no difference.

You weren’t voting for harm reduction and you probably never have in your entire life. If you vote for capitalists, that isn’t harm reduction.

You had me in the first part, not gonna lie. But then I see that you are perfectly fine with unquestioning support of Israel.

If democracy isn’t worth dying for, then you won’t ever be able to have it.

Democracy sucks ass and directly lead to the problems we have now.

If their budget was zero’d out on the federal level where would the local FBI officers get their funding?

Dismantling the FBI seems like a good idea to me anyway. It’s not like their mission is a good one. Maybe in the next government the FBI can be brought back as a federal agency that is narrowly focuses on investigating/punishing local/state level law enforcement.

But of course the Dems will just approve whatever budget the republicans come up with and facism will continue unabated.

Broken Clock moment. Private universities like the Ivy Leagues absolutely shouldn’t be tax exempt, and also shouldn’t be receiving any aid whatsoever from any government, federal, state, or local.

The widespread conflation of judaism and zionism is a completely normalized form of anti-semitism.

And it is intentionally pushed by Israeli PACs.

I guess we will see. Since feb I’ve still gotten a bunch of fundraising txts for shitty candidates that have lost repeatedly in hopeless districts from the DNC. Example: Fl-6 and Fl-1
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida’s_6th_congressional_district
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida’s_1st_congressional_district

Or Texts from Corey Booker, who has been shitty since before 2016 and yet the DNC keep trying to turn him into the next Obama.

On Mar31 I got a fundraising text from “kamala,” yea, no comment needed there.

If you want to win you need to back candidates that are more then just centrist dems who want to be bipartisan.
If you truly believe the GoP are fascists, then you cannot work with them at all and that isn’t something I see from many of the current Dems. I guess the crop of candidates for 2026 will be revealing, but looking at Fl-1, the only dem candidate is the same one that has lost the previous 5 times, often by >10% of the vote.
