Retired. Just a follower now. Was in the software industry for a long time. Used to play hockey and do triathlons, but now I ride my bike and swim. No more running. Knee replacements do limit you. Liberal, but reside in Ohio.

In the US, we can't even dream of it.
A dutch woman gets a €439 fine after a traffic camera mistakenly identifies an icepack for a phone.
We can only dream of such mistakes here in Scotland.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:
A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Immigration's economic benefits far outweigh concerns. Immigrants complement native workers & drive innovation. As the USA's workforce shrinks, smart immigration policy could address labor shortages while maintaining America's competitive edge in the global economy.

Yes, this Cabinet — with a Fox & Friends drunk, a Real World airhead, a former heroin addict who beheaded a whale, a dog killer, a Russian stooge, a scandal-plagued wrestling executive, etc — this Cabinet is LITERALLY the best America has ever had.
Thank you for that insight, Elon. Smart as ever.

Elon Musk at Trump's first Cabinet meeting: "I think this is the best Cabinet ever. Literally. So, uh, and I do not give false praise... I think it‘s literally the best Cabinet that the country has ever had."

I’m not sure the rest of the country fully grasps the panic and anger building in DC, MD, and VA.
The entire economy of this area is about to collapse. Paychecks are stopping. Careers are ruined. Taxes are about to plummet. Yet no one seems able to stop this madness.

Maybe the DOGE kids will find the elusive Trump tax returns and make them public.
Just to be clear, the IRS does not have to allow this. There’s no reason to allow the DOGE incels anywhere near the servers

I just posted this on Facebook because while super online people see what's going on, normies don't. I just re-read it and it sounds unhinged. But it's what's happening. And even I can't believe it, even if we're seeing it.
