The US is paying them to house those prisoners though, which makes it harder to pass the buck onto Bukele. Not to say they won’t try that argument, but this isn’t just a situation of us dropping him off and saying bye.

Haha, hell yeah. Saw your reply at the same time op responded to my message and misinterpreted. Agreed.

And my point is that the example you used does not make the point you are trying to make, but rather the opposite. I get what you’re saying, it just doesn’t apply to farmers and mechanics.

No, but if a farmer’s tractor is overheating (as in the gard drive conparison), I’m sure they could diagnose it.

I’m not sure how well that analogy holds up. Farmers are usually pretty well versed in mechanical systems. To the point that now that John Deere has been screwing them over on right to repair that some farmers are even becoming versed in computer programming so they can flash the firmware on their tractors.

They should name the archiving ai Herodotus… We really have entered the post truth era.

I was talking with my mom the other day and apparently their neighbors, who up until now had never shown any political affiliation at all, put up a Trump flag. They’ve been neighbors for like 20 years haha, my mom was shocked.

Every single time the SC does something outrageous some version of this article comes out proclaiming his deep held belief in justice and whatever else. And every time it is complete bullshit.

The man who threw a hissy fit over the NWS mildly correcting him over the course a hurricane would travel during his presidency has the nerve to criticize Helene’s response.

Probably at the stage where it turns into ‘it doesn’t matter since she won’t win anyway, this is just a protest vote to show support for third party.’

Vance after the Debate

Vance digging deep into the reddit school of debate. ‘Explain to me how my lie is untrue please. I’ll derail all other talk until then.’

Tying deregulation to improving birth rates is definitely one of the weirder libertarian takes I’ve heard, pure Peter Thiel I’m sure.

Probably Late Night With The Devil. I haven’t had a chance to watch it yet but I want to.

Binders full of sofas.

He’s always been the one to say the quiet part out loud.

A lot of states (mine included) have already had their primaries, so if he steps aside then those states will not have had a say in selecting the democratic candidate. I’m guessing the talking point will then shift to something along the lines of ‘I didn’t get a choice in who the next candidate will be, so I’m not voting’ or calling for all states to re-run their primaries like that’s an option.

Should he decide to step aside, it’ll be fun watching the pivot from ‘Biden should step down’ to ‘how could the dnc just pick someone like that, how undemocratic!’ Same people, same agenda.

Obviously you’re acting in bad faith here, but for anyone else that sees this chain and thinks hypnoton over here isn’t full of it, here’s the first two paragraphs of the article. Long story short, he was set to give a speech at a convention, workers went on strike and everyone involved is doing the exact same thing as Biden.

A strike by the staff of the nation’s largest teachers’ union has prompted President Biden to cancel a speech on Sunday in Philadelphia, where he was scheduled to address thousands of delegates to the union’s annual convention.

The staff union of the National Education Association began its strike on Friday, citing management’s revocation of holiday overtime pay for the Fourth of July holiday and its refusal to provide information on $50 million in outsourced work that may have previously been done by N.E.A. staff. The strike has shut down the last three days of the four-day convention, as delegates declined to cross a picket line.

He’s cancelling the speech so as to not cross the picket line. In support of the union.
