I'm sure China would send us those for free.

You guys seen the entire list?

This is the king demanding tribute from ALL his vassals.

Yeah my understanding of the ID situation in the US is certainly flawed. It seems labyrinthian to me at times due to all the different state ordenances. Although nothing compared to the US health care system. Jesus Christ. One thing I've learned here is that freedom certainly isn't free.

"Leave" from public view. That is all people on the right ask of Musk. They are okay with his interference and interventions. He just makes himself too much of a target by being publicly visible.

You can't be the shadow government when you're exposed to sunlight. Then again, the brain behind the entire operation never stepped out of the shadows and will remain there. Peter Thiel.

Thanks for typing out the percentages, so far I've only seen emotional news reports about it without any detailed info.

Are these tariffs on ALL goods from a certain country? Eg, does 34% on China mean 34% on ALL Chinese goods or just certain ones like cars?

Well, one of two things will happen now.

• The US economy will recede by roughly 30% over the coming years (classified by economists as "catastrophic collapse")

• It will turn out that trade was "fake and gay" all along and autarky is the way to go, despite centuries of historic lessons to the contrary.

Take your pick.

Also non-american here who lives in America now though. I was also confused about the backlash to voter ID back then (this is a VERY old issue) as in Germany you are required to show your ID when voting.

It has been explained to me that most Americans do not have ANY form of identification other than their drivers license. There is no personal ID you are required to possess like in Germany. The vast majority of Americans does not have, nor will ever have, a passport. Driver's licenses are cheaper to obtain than in Europe, but you still have to provide a host of documents many poorer people might not be able to provide + you need to pass a driver's test of course to get it. There are a lot of people who for one reason or another can not do that.

In other words, if you don't pass a driver's test in the US, you might as well not exist. There is still the "social security number", but that one is NOT MEANT to be a form of identification, plus immigrants without citizenship can also obtain them (I should know, I have one). I don't think a common driver's license counts for voter ID's purposes under that proposal, so the way to identifying yourself as a citizen is even more limited. There is a REAL ID program in some states, but not others. You also get that from the DMV, which again is just the motor vehicle office. It's really fucked up here. All of it. A solution would be to require citizen ID's like its done in Europe, but the government doesn't want to pay for that and Americans are usually against something like that ("government overreach wah wah what's next, chips in my skin???"). So...hm.

That's a Tekken character.

You're thinking of Martian law.

There there. We will recover, brother. 😔

That battle caused a mass-extinction event among the Total War community.

• Frontal cavalry charge without any follow up

• Siege engines positioned outside the fortifications against a mobile enemy

• Projectile forces unsupported outside the fortifications

• Melee infantry inside the castle, watching and picking their noses

My wife told me to shut up multiple times during that episode as I was screeching like a monkey. The wrong side won that battle that night.

I've never used twitter or facebook or tiktok and left reddit and 4chan. I don't want to be part of the problem.

I want to be the ENTIRE problem.

Had to google her, don't recognize her. Here's my thrown stone. Don't look at the glass castle behind me.

I think my body would have given out long before I ran out of things to say about Trump. I would have started with Plato, and ended with a litany of insults, everything that could possibly conceived by mankind. A 20 hour "Zaporizhian Cossack's response to the Sultan", but even more scathing.

I thought it was kinda cool he was mad at Trump for 24 hours straight. This shit takes a lot of physical effort, especially for a 55 year old.

Highly performative though. Not saying it was useless, because it definitely was a statement. It was not yet a "step in the right direction, but at least a "slight bend of the neck to maybe someday start looking in the right direction". Now I would like every other congressional Democrat to follow it up with something. Furiously voting against absolutely everything the MAGA terrorists propose, no matter what. Call Mike Johnson a cuck live on C-Span, every day. Lock MTG in the bathroom. Create 100 policy proposals for the docket, every day and from everyone until the .txt list is 500 Petabyte big.

Shut congress down. Completely, until Trump is gone. This is war.

If you use anything but TOR together with spoofed VPNs for "activism" against a government that would jail/kill you, you are being reckless.

If you use X for your activism, you're not an activist you're a fed honeypot.

Typical Roman suppression against Illyrians again. Tsk Tsk.

Lol, no.

Alt-right is already declaring her a martyr and firing up their base. Even Russia chimed in, proclaiming European democracies as fake now. With absolutely zero self-awareness. Navalny-who?

Alright this is knee-jerk speculation, but the only reason I can think of for the FBI collecting evidence like this (the moving boxes) and the university not saying anything, is because it was determined Prof. Wang is a Chinese agent. It's very unlikely ICE would come after professors, could do it silently, and someone in an area of expertise that is highly sought-after would be deported at all. And they wouldn't include the FBI either.

Meh. This meme is straight up lifted from /pol/, and people there usually go "I voted for this EXACTLY" when news break about how foreigners are abducted from streets and Vance is preparing for an ideological war with Europe.

"Moderates" and old geezer Republicans fell for his lies (again), big surprise. You won't find them here. The people who made this meme (originally about Israel by the way) only lament how Trump has still not publicly executed Obama and Pelosi.

America's involvement was never secret though. And it should have been a lot more (more involvement, not "more secret").

Based Chuddah. Nothing ever happens.
