My mistake, I was internalizing ‘military age male’ when I both read and responded to the original commenter. 🤷‍♂️

Or I should have gone with a higher age. The photos I saw looked like very rough older men, which again doesn’t say much as it’s Russia and they’re fighting in a war.

Some of them look like they need a care home.

Didn’t we just get photos of 50 year old Russians turning themselves over to Ukraine? Idk what you mean by ‘working age males’ anymore.

Hey, the POTUS said on ‘day 1’ he’d have a deal made. Art of the deal kind of guy.

I’m more interested in what comes next, will he back Russia instead?

There’s still time to bribe the old man.

Especially after the president said he’d deport Americans. If you submitted the article, how long do you think you’d last before you accidentally not accidentally got deported to a gulag?

The fan is probably one of those bladeless ones.

Can someone just sue these rich assholes since the DOJ, Congress and the SCOTUS won’t hold them accountable?

I will say, that the lack of social services, social safety nets, and collective bargaining means that the first threat against your career and source of income immediately pacifies you.

Some other European countries that have those benefits don’t realize what kind of burden Americans are under. I am literally afraid of them starting to ‘loyalty test’ people in my profession for loyalty to ‘trump’ instead of the constitution and the presidency (as outlined by the constitution, instead of someone who wipes their hands with it).

Spoiler: they won’t.

The idea that Art of the Deal can’t get this guy back is absurd, they have the power and ability to do so. They refuse to.

This is the important part. Trump 1.0 didn’t have carte blanche to get away with everything, the SCOTUS and a more compliant Congress have given 2.0 that authority.

And if it is, and he can, that’s a natural born leader right there if I ever saw one. Promote ahead of peers (who can’t helicopter penis). Meritocracy.

We obviously needs a test that is biased toward males so we can clearly see and point toward female deficiencies.

Being born with the appendage designed for peeing standing up is significantly more important than all that other stuff you mentioned. Simply having a uterus makes women 10x worse, duh.

At some point these countries just need to stop buying American. What’s he going to do? Go to war with them? I mean… Elon already sued advertisers for boycotting his Twitter…

What’s being reported… is that the national security folks believe that most all top level officials already have enemy nation states ease dropping on their personal phones. Especially if, say… you’re in their country (like one of the members of the signal chat was, in Russia specifically, during the signal chat episode).

Signal may be safe for us normies, but if your device is already compromised because you’re a high value target, especially if you’re in their lair, then there isn’t much good that’ll do for you.

5 floors up in a hotel, you say?

If they’ll counter Musk’s primarying political opposition and stooges, you may see congressmen grow a spine.

What? I’m going to Europe for a ‘camping trip’. They aren’t limiting private citizens travel in or out, yet. But, I certainly will not be bringing my phone.
