Here is something I’ve been curious about. Congress has undisputed constitutional control of tariffs. A previous Congress enacted a law to delegate some of that authority to the President.
So now.. how can the President (or anyone) just say, “fuck you, you can’t have your constitutional power back?” Why can’t Congress just fall back to their constitutional authority and render their predecessors’ delegation invalid?
If your bread goes moldy in a week, you might be good! (Am not an expert)
And polls like this will only make him vindictive and want to control us harder.
So why the fuck does he think he needs to be involved and to solve this through physical violence?
Significant money placed on stupidity combined with a corporal punishment upbringing. What are the odds he’s also a Republican?
Make sure you leave a yelp (or whatever) review.
This one has charm, but the trend is strange.
Should they all report Trump?
Look into ecowitt. I only have the ground humidity sensors, but they work well with HA.

The VA doesn’t find out what’s wrong with vets, they ask vets to come with deep medical knowledge and diagnoses to support their claims. In my branch at least.. diagnoses weren’t handed out. Only Motrin.
As you say, these companies give vets the ammo needed to support their claims, and that requires a medical provider’s time. Whoever is behind these articles is advocating against veterans receiving benefits once the military breaks them.
All they had to do (as an example) is tell someone, somewhere, that only one form of ID is enough to let him back into the country—if he happens to show up there—to be compliant.
Anything along these lines is “following the court order” to facilitate his return.
The SC was complicit when they chose the word “facilitate” instead of giving measurable tasks.
make (an action or process) easy or easier.
That’s so fucking little a requirement, it’s effectively not one. How no one saw this I don’t know.
Either that or it was being harassed by UAVs, which could have been the actual target of the AA.

Your prof curved to the third quartile. Interesting.
This headline is making my head hurt.

Says the asshole trying to buy an election to rig a court ruling?

I’m going to editorialize a bit here. The DoD was ready to fire every probationary employee today. An AF Lieutenant General came to tears yesterday breaking the news to staff. And this is not just first year employees as the media keeps pointing out- this changed this to two years in 2015 for the DoD. For many excepted employees, it actually takes three years to leave the probationary period. Doing rough math (3 years out of a 30 year career- that’s 10% of that particular population). It took “woke” CNN to point out the law that you can’t just fire ~6% of the workforce without first determining what will break.
Too bad this wasn’t law for the IRS and other agencies.

SecDef says a "reevaluation of our probationary workforce" will be followed by wider dismissal of "redundancies" and "underperformers."

Trump Takes Lead in 538 Simulations
538’s 2024 presidential election forecast model showing Democrat Kamala Harris’s and Republican Donald Trump’s chances of winning.
For the first time since 538 published our presidential election forecast for Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump, Trump has taken the lead (if a very small one) over Harris. As of 3 p.m. Eastern on Oct. 18, our model gives Trump a 52-in-100 chance of winning the majority of Electoral College votes. The model gives Harris a 48-in-100 chance.
Am I supposed to ask stupid questions here, or not ask stupid questions?
