Hell, I wouldn’t be shocked if we see some teams outright refusing to come. Owners and managers might go for “well we can’t guarantee that half your team isn’t going to wind up deported to Libya”, but I guarantee the players won’t.


While this is true, you have to think on diplomatic terms too. The number of countries that will actually deal with us long-term is rapidly falling because President Sundown might wake up tomorrow and decide to tear up your trade deal or defense agreement or whatever. I can definitely see India saying “no” purely because of that.


The issue is that’s not NECESSARILY true. Jones is a co-owner in multiple companies that sell that snake oil.
Anyone who’s spent time in any institution will tell you that corruption is a cancer, whether it’s just saying “good enough” on shoddy work that’ll barely hold together, or deciding “close enough” when arranging security for a formal dinner of political figures and journalists. If you don’t cut it out, it becomes part of the culture and nobody thinks twice.


Trump didn’t go to the dinner over multiple years purely because a lot of reporters use it to poke fun (in good fun) at the President, and occasionally actually lobby for something too. The man cannot take being made fun of, at all. Making it a Presidential event makes sure that he can exclude anybody that’s not the most sycophantic.


And I’m sure the fact the guy was Californian will, in no way, be spun to influence the California elections.


No, we definitely are trying to use rich whites as a patch on the leaking dam now that we’ve been trying to deport all the “illegals” as fast as we can (and to get the administration filthy fucking rich). “Rich” in this case being "over $50k/year so we might be able to get them to buy a car and rent an apartment Considering they’re talking about lifting the immigration restrictions on white South Africans specifically.


Yeah, this is basically where I’m at. We don’t want to make Canada an actual state. What we want to do, is make it a colony, in the 17th century idea: we rule everything, and whatever you do, it just gets shipped southwards to prop up what’s left of the imperial core.


And to shove justification off to a black box. Awful hard to put an algorithm on trial.


Not just “giving up”, there are large portions who think McCarthy’s mistake was not simply murdering everyone who appeared before HUAC. My own father-in-law doesn’t really want these to be any form of actual “we wanna know what’s going on” trials, he just wants this to be all but a summary execution.


Actually basically yes. NASA has had decades of practice at minimum viable operation capability, making their spacecraft and rovers all but drag themselves along even when anything else would stop working.


You forgot ‘and a friend to pull you out in case’.


I will also point out that the idea of a pre-tribulation Rapture is not biblically well-supported, and was pretty much made up out of whole cloth by dispensationalists in England as a way to make the idea of a doctrine focused on Revelation more palatable (“see, you’ll be taken to heaven in secret one day before all this happens”). It’s taken a LOT more root in America than it did in Europe, to the point that it’s mainstream doctrine among a lot of churches (thanks Tim LaHaye and Jerry B Jenkins for doing that, you weird fucks).


He pardoned a literal war criminal. Eddie Gallagher shot at civilians so much his team fucked with his sniper equipment to make sure at least his first shot or two missed, to give people time to get away.


7, but yes, he’s said that he’s the same person he was in first grade.


Yeah, this should’ve been going since at least the ICE bullshit started, at latest. One resolution fails? Another one, right then. Keep it going, constantly, Enemy At The Gates style. Make them defend the position, make them justify it to their supporters.


Officially, they’re just housing them until their official removal procedures. Unofficially, I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of these people aren’t disappearing into the slave trade as soon as it’s convenient.


It actually assumes that Iran doesn’t know the capabilities of its own neighbors, since a lot of Middle Eastern nations, including Israel, are operators of the F15.


Generally, “I did illegal thing because my lawyer advised me to do illegal thing (also I have power to compel my legal team to say whatever I want)” is not a GREAT defense.
