Because Trump will cut all funding and equipment if they don’t.

Nope - they’re available nationally

I assume that’s the plan with RFK’s “wellness camps”. Define gender dysphoria as a qualifying mental illness, and send transgender folks there to replace migrant workers who have been deported.

When you owe the bank a thousand dollars, that’s your problem. When you owe the bank a million dollars, that’s the bank’s problem.

The Sandy Hook families already know they will never recover the entire damages award. Spending real money on any future lawsuit won’t put another dime in their pockets, only add to the portion that never gets paid because he won’t make it in his lifetime. They’ll probably do it anyway for the satisfaction of making him squirm in front of a judge, but owing another billion is irrelevant.

Then add a few years, since you’ll be the one paying to replace wear items like roof, carpets, and appliances.

They’re laying the groundwork to purge officers that might push back on plans to abandon Ukraine, bar women from combat roles, discharge LGBTQIA+ service members, etc. If they think an officer may not roll over and support whatever the new administration wants, then threaten investigation and court martial unless they agree to step down quietly.

“Tastes of human sir. Would you like a white wine?”

Uh, Socialism please.

“Well we’re all out of Socialism. We only had three bits and we didn’t expect such a rush. So whaddaya want?”

What, so my choice is “or US free enterprise”?

Gay sex tapes would do it. Not that I think there are any, but his base are homophobic enough to turn on him for that. Rape and pedophilia they can understand, accept, and support, but gay sex is where they would draw the line.

Sigh.

Not the solution you think it is. It would be the rural Republican areas of California that would split off, meaning the magats would have an even stronger lock on the senate.

To be even more explicit on the last point, that means regularly updating OpenWRT and all your containers, not just the server’s base OS

Police station would be a terrible choice. People who aren’t able to vote on election day skew poor, black, brown, and/or immigrant - exactly the groups who would be (rightly) afraid of entering a police station.

They did. Here. Now.

Except that the Dems are consistently unwilling to play hardball. The generals would have to make the decision to intervene without being asked for that scenario to play out. I don’t know much about sentiment in the upper (or even lower) ranks of the US military, but that seems unlikely.

Even then, there’s a significant chance Harris refuses to be put in power by military intervention, or the generals believe she would remove them and instruct her attorney general to prosecute them. So military intervention, if successful, would at best mean new (military supervised) elections.

Vested interest? Literally vested stock options. Well, by now they’ve already been used to purchase stock.
