I hate it too, but there's no law saying a Dem President can't order it changed in 2029. It probably won't even be in serial production by then.
Or he orders USPS not to handle any mail ballots
I suspect it's just a superficial resemblance, the YA-9 also has U-2 vibes from certain angles.
I think the biggest risk would be detailed photographs of the inlets. I haven't seen any photos to confirm the inlet covers were in place but unless someone seriously screwed up they would be.
Oh I see what he was saying now
The Great Khan of the Plains is right there
Breyer: But wouldn't that then always be the case? If the civilian law enforcement tells you we want military force just in case something happens? Sherman: Absolutely, your honor...and we had plenty of capacity to do that. Breyer: Ok, I think that answers my question
Indeed, the US bought a zeppelin, filled it with helium, and it had a long, successful career (mostly in determining what not to use zeppelins for).
It was 100% necessary for the *Germans* to fill their zeppelins with hydrogen, because the US had an effective monopoly on helium and refused to export it, for obvious reasons.
Sounds like next time you should cut out the middle man and just interview her focus group
It has been the honor of my life to serve as Commissioner of BLS alongside the many dedicated civil servants tasked with measuring a vast and dynamic economy. It is vital and important work and I thank them for their service to this nation.
The whole reason they're going for it now is to ensure no Congress can ever be elected that would do so
Died with hippo, not from hippo
I learned very early not to touch anything the British called BBQ
And that was how Prof. Kreis ended up a Subject of the Crown
I knew immediately that the business model was get people hooked with cheap deliveries subsidized by venture capital, then jack up prices later. I just couldn't predict that a global pandemic would come along to absolutely supercharge the dependency factor.
I see six
They start deporting Cubans to South Sudan, Florida is going to get spicy real quick
The prompt they put in told it to be "not politically correct", and people who describe themselves as not politically correct are often Nazis.
The Guardian, but not so annoyingly British
I believe the docs were mostly from the CA National Guard. I get the distinct feeling some officer rolled their eyes at the assignment and said "eh, make a planning exercise of it".
I'd bet money some people were saying that as they were drawing the maps
Who said they didn't
Looks like he blocked you
Especially when they can't even be bothered to explain themselves
I deleted several posts about a Times story because they violated Times social media standards.
I always figured Bade for an awful person, but seeing the glee on her face definitely cements that
Yet still they fall
The point is that fictional stories do not have to accept the bounds of reality. I can write a novel in which gravity doesn't exist, that doesn't make it so or a good basis for a philosophy.
Okay but replicators aren't real
If I and most of the people I know voted for a guy who got 0.05% of the vote, that might give me pause on whether I have my finger on the pulse of the nation.
She only protected Alaska from the thinnest sliver of the horrors in that bill though, so even by this standard of success she failed.
Truth and Retribution
Dollar store Marc Thiessen
He's also clearly stanning ACB for parochial reasons. Hell he probably knows her personally.
Yeesh, that is not a blockworthy quote
"something something great deference to the President in foreign policy" -John Roberts probably
Diego Garcia was returned to Mauritius this year and subsequently leased back by the UK. Using it for an attack on Iran would likely cause diplomatic headaches with both. I'm not saying it won't happen, but that's probably the holdup.
Because Diego Garcia is not United States territory
The organized protests like NoKings are giving DC a pass
And here I always thought "Derek Guy" was an obvious pseudonym
He always gets super offended when people call him a troll
Generalizing *a GOP convention delegate* to represent everyone who voted for Trump is proving Elliott's point for him.
They haven't even admitted there *is* a contract. Which is farcical, but here we are.
Their argument is that El Salvador holding them in CECOT has nothing to do with the US
It's a useless gotcha, all of human civilization is "just made up". Things exist because we chose to make them.
A tricky question, what is this The Bridge of Death?
The evolution from monolatry to henotheism to monotheism is fairly well documented in the archeological record, not surprising the text echoes that.
Even the BBC has almost nothing on the front page right now, just a small piece about drones.
Okay. The people have spoken. For every reskeet this gets, I will post a random picture from my camera roll with no explanation (other than alt text). Let the games begin.
I assume you mean Steak 'n Shake, if Shake Shack were cancelled I'm not sure what I would do
When I was living there I found that virtually all waste-related terms were different, such an odd subject for divergence.
Netanyahu pioneered this and Democrats let him get away with it.
If trade policy is the #1 crisis in the country for the next 4 years I think we'll be getting off easy.
He's also already here!
I'm not sure he's enthusiastic, I remember a piece from early on that said he'd been given a minder to keep him in line. He won't say no to anything because he's spineless and afraid of being excommunicated.
I hope she isn't planning to use any fertilizers on her homegrown crops because I have bad news about where those come from
The vast majority of them usually have more to fear from a primary, so it will have to get very bleak indeed.
I think the result of that would've ended up much worse for Greenland.
I think I read somewhere that he's only listed as working one day per week or something, so that the 130 days lasts the whole year. Which is nonsense, but someone has to sue over it.
If the President declares he's not obligated to obey the law, no one is obligated to obey the President
"maintains the Biden budget through September" except all the parts it doesn't
AUKUS is out, FRAUK is in
This has real Josh Barro "nobody actually believes Trump will try a coup" energy.
Awful
Whoever is running this account I'm sorry your boss is an idiot
Remember how hard they slapped him down on student debt relief. Only Republicans are allowed to ignore the law
My best case scenario at this point is that they're waiting until after the speech tonight so that it doesn't include an angry rant against them. The alternatives aren't great.
I know who my money would be on if it came to a fistfight
I have to assume they can't do this for long before people stop checking in
I don't know how you watch that and come away thinking Zelensky was the one who chose to argue
There are lots of people who think their phone app does just as good a job of forecasting, so it needs to be hammered that NOAA is where those apps get their data.
The wider shot is worse, Trump is nodding off!
Look at the question wording, this was a push poll.
Sounds to me like you at least were always going to find a reason to vote against Harris. Which doesn't inspire confidence that this was a path worth taking.
"Was this group large enough to swing the result, and would they have swung as a result of plausible actions" are also at least theoretically quantifiable.
"did this issue cost Harris the election" is absolutely a question you can issue a numerical value to.
Are we talking a stellar-mass or supermassive black hole? Because for a stellar mass the tidal forces will rip you apart well before the event horizon.
Any country that considers America an ally after today is a fool
I'd like to point out to everyone confused that Michael Tracy the weirdo Everest Youtuber is not Michael Tracey the weirdo Xitter poster!
Perhaps, but I think the constant factor here is that the entire Republican Party is terrified of Trump supporters. They're scared of physical violence, they're scared of a primary, they're scared they won't turn out in the general. It's why they didn't convict in the second impeachment.
The Cabinet Secretaries that would have to vote this through are all sycophants he selected specifically for sycophancy. He could be a gibbering wreck and they wouldn't turn on him.
This is fake
And a judge that will let it past a motion to dismiss
None? Whatever words describe what Elon is doing at the Federal level, "quiet" isn't one of them. That's not to say every state government is a bastion of small-d democracy. Many of them have serious issues. But nothing like this.
Voter registration happens at the State level. There are plenty of ways to cause mayhem with this, but voting isn't one of them.
They half-heartedly tried after 1/6 and even that was too much. They know it's safe to say whatever in the WSJ because MAGA doesn't read.
Did I say that?
Dude is quote-tweeting a post about Dems failing to oppose Trump and he claims it's about Biden. Just absolute disingenuous garbage.

I had to unfollow you over there, you're the only person still doing "retweets are not endorsements" in 2025 and I really don't need Stephen Miller and Chaya Raichik in my feed!
Their millennial parents probably played it for family movie night
Trump has never felt he owed someone for a single second in his life
Welp so much for Denali
The prompt was your most millennial complaint, not your worst
I see Mr Bouie has decided to recreate his Spiderman 3 take for the Bluesky era
William McKinley: if Trump gets to name a carrier after his apparent favorite President, maybe he'll be less inclined to revert the Denali name and/or name a carrier after himself.
People said I was overreacting when I cancelled my WaPo sub. The mainstream media is either surrendering to fascism or collaborating with it.
People complaining about paywalls should direct their anger at Google/Facebook etc for destroying the advertising model
