They were going to get to make a bunch of shit to replace what we were going to give to the Ukrainians too, but now not so much. So domestic orders-down. Foreign orders- gonezo. 
 

bail them out too, like the farmers?

companies can’t lose money because that’s wrong, but people can lose money.  Well, certain people. Not the ones that can afford to lose some money. 

 

the companies will get a bail out, not the workers

So, this is fun. Message I just got from our German friends/family:

“Hello Brisket, we received some bad news from my nephew and he would like to ask you for your opinion...
He got the commitment for a scholarship to study in Madison which would have startet in August.
Unfortunately Trump has deleted the money for that and now the university has cancelled the contract. Are they allowed to do that? What is your legal opinion for that?
Nephew asks me, if he may contact you...”

I got to tell them I’m so sorry to hear this…and yes, you’re fucked. Sure, what he’s done is probably illegal, but it will take time for the courts to sort it out…if they can…and if he obeys a court order. Shit, we just had dinner with a friend who is a medium-sized university president. His take was pretty sanguine: higher Ed is turbo-fucked. All of it.

Imagine a way to destroy our standing in the world….and this admin is doing so. But have no fear, it’s ALSO hurting countless people right here at home. My daughter is applying to graduate programs this fall. I had encouraged her to apply to multiple programs in the US. I’m now glad that her target schools are all overseas. Of course, it may be that Americans become persona non grata to our former allies, so not exhaling yet.

DoD:  The NYT story about sharing China war plans with Elon was made up fake news.  We are also going to poly everyone to find out who leaked this real and sensitive information.

Maybe Maury Povich or Montrell Williams can host the results reveal party?

 

Very soon, Elon Musk will be selling Tesla's equipped with Starlink to be given to each illegal or legal immigrant to self deport.  All they have to do is show up 50 miles in from the Mexican border, with a 75 mile charge.

Did Jane's finance kidnap Sydney and take her to Las Vegas? And if so, did she enjoy it?

i have reached a wall where i can't consume dotard on a daily basis....  so i haven't read this thread for 30, 50 pages, i don't know how far i am behind

apologies in advance if this has been cited....

i found 2 metrics for the % of americans that rely entirely on social security: 27% and 40% of all ss recipients, let's split the difference and call it 33%

the ssa on their site says there were 71.6m recipients in 23

23.6m people would be 10-14 days away from starvation, no meds, no utilities, no home, no apartment

the basic necessities of survival, i.e. the basics of civilization, would be at risk for at least 50% of recipients: 35 million people

pitchforks, torches, guillotines, and every billionare's value plunges by half? 2/3rds?

i just can't see it

he might as well just nuke all of florida

This ship sailed a loooooong time ago. They wouldn't remove him when he tried to install himself as an un-elected dictator. 

Honestly, whatever he could do that would actually make them impeach and remove him is too terrible to even imagine. 

He could nuke New York, L.A., or Chicago and they wouldn’t remove him.

Fuck Trump, fuck Stephen Miller, and fuck anyone that works for this administration

 

 

I like this Senators courage to speak out against Trump. But does it even matter? Is he pulling a charade?

Ok, , I will be the anti-doom human. Gonna tag a few. If I forgot you, well meh.

We are UT. What starts here and all that shit.

We fight with kindness. We fight with what we were raised with. Open a door for someone at a cafe or bar. Be kind.

I ran an experiment today. I bought flowers and walked through a diverse crowed. I handed out flowers to people who seemed sad, perplexed, alone. I had one dude get pissed, he backed off (I did not see him but his "date" wanted to give me her number). And yeah, I had a big ass friend with me who backs this concept. And he is an Aggie (only time I will spell it that way.) Yeah, a simple act.

We are in this together.

So here is my challenge. Let's not be doom. Let us walk off the ledge @Brisketexan and realize, we win if we smile while silently thinking. Let our neighbor know I am here. Go give someone a flower. Just that.

Lets get ready, but right now, lets be kind and wow them with kindness. MLK, Mandela, Ghandi.

Let us hold hands. Simple shit.

There was a lot of talk about that in the first pages of this thread. I'm not saying that I'm doing that. I think maybe you need to take a few breaths. It was more piling on with you from your post than antagonizing you for your post.

Dude, I was making fun of the people you tagged for saying they were gonna become the monsters and then subsequently not doing it and you calling them out for whining all the time by doing the right thing. Its why I immediately said I don't think you understood my post and specifically why I didn't quote you as a direct response. It was a comment made in jest right after you lighting people up, for ledge dwelling.

If you still want to cancel because I agree with you then I guess fuck me and this site. I just think you are a bit charged up for some reason and are clearly not understanding what I meant in the post.

No shit dude, we're trying to figure out why he flipped out. I was gonna say we don't need MLK right now, we need Malcolm. Glad I didn't, or maybe it would be my fault that he's leaving

this is absolutely whats happening. Its going to snowball fast. Now its random people here and there to seed the fear, then once you have an infraction (violence, riots, whatever) its the big ass crackdown. My only thoughts are wondering if its 2025 or 2026. Probably the latter as need more pain before any infractions take place. 

I am advising my legal resident green card holding family member to leave this year and not come back. They were already detaining him and harassing him regularly at IAH going back some 15 years. Said family member is overseas now and I am advising them its playing with a loaded gun coming back through. Sure, you could argue stats and probabilities, but again, pretty sure thats a 2025 argument. 

And the beat goes on. Hope you homies are well and staying nuke free.
