Of this you can be certain:

If Democrat lawmakers treated Republican voters the way Republican lawmakers are treating Democrat voters there would already be gun battles in the streets.

This simple fact is *the* reason they're doing what they're doing. Because they know they can.

The presidency is not a part-time job.

But yeah, tell me again how Biden was old...
“..Trump in his second term has started scheduled events in the afternoon on average, at 12:08 p.m. .. The number of Mr. Trump’s total official appearances has decreased by 39 percent.”

We should all assert our First Amendment right to avoid disclosing to the federal government how much money we make.

The reminiscing in the comments - spot on.

After my fam moved from FL to NJ when I was 5 my parents would put me on a plane every summer to visit relatives.

When I was 8 I did the entirety of EWR to MCO in the cockpit jump seat of a National 727.

Can't do that anymore, either.
The trend towards dressing down started when TSA began requiring passengers to strip down to get through security.

Also, Sean Duffy is a moron.
Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

A better person than I would say, "I hope Candace gets the professional help she needs."

I, on the other hand, hope she falls into a fuckin' hole.
Looks like it’s going to be another perfectly normal day from the American right-wing.

Another reminder that full vehicle autonomy can not be achieved at scale using vehicles as independent nodes.

Vehicle autonomy **requires** V2V (vehicle to vehicle) and V2I (vehicle to infrastructure) communications.
This is near 100% confirmation that Tesla won't get a permit to roll out FSD Supervised in Europe.

My hunch is that the Regulator needs Tesla's FSD data, which Tesla has refused to submit even to regulators in California since 2014.

I wonder what Tesla has to hide?

Yes. Quit your job, sell your house and move to a Red state where unemployment is higher, schools suck and healthcare is worse.

These people are just shockingly stupid.

"HIGHEST STOCK MARKET EVER"

The S&P 500, alone, has lost over a trillion $ in value in the last 2 weeks.
Some piggy needs to ask him for proof.
Trump is so far detached from reality it’s absurd. It’s past time to talk seriously about the 25th Amendment.

I think it's funny that so many people are twisting themselves into knots trying to figure out the whole Trump/Mamdani thing.

It's so very basic - Trump sees his polling numbers.

Sadly, true

I stumbled upon my high school yearbook (1980) online.

There's an entire section devoted to teachers and their 2nd jobs.

We should probably do better.

Recent losses in investment accounts, across the board, more than suggest that it won't be long until white folks rise up and drag the Orange Fuckpuppet out his nasty fake-ass stucco whorehouse in Palm Beach and make a bonfire out of him.

Itinerary planning for some Exumas #sailing in March. The Exumas are like a candy store - there are way more beautiful anchorages than you have time to see, so you just have to keep going back.

In an age in which we are continuously, relentlessly bombarded with Stupid, this manages to stand out as being More Stupid.
this defies parody. also helps explain why Sec Bessent bizarrely blamed immigrants when confronted with a question about high beef prices

So... Trump actually believes some people are, in fact, real pigs?

Test him again.
Q: What did the president mean when he called a reporter "piggy"?

LEAVITT: Look, the president is very frank & honest with everyone in this room. You'll all seen it yourself. You've all experienced it yourselves. And I think it's one of the many reasons the American people reelected this president
