That’s why you arm them and train them. I remember my father talking about Reagan did that with the afghanis…. I’m not sure if I am remembering correctly but I think it was them. I heard @marklevinshow mention this as well. I completely agree.
SIDENOTE: my dad was a huge history buff. He had 100s of books on every war ever fought …. Every war fought on American soil. Do you know how many times I had to watch Patton? He was also a huge Louis La’Mar ( misspelled) fan. He had every book in paperback and in leather bound. I’m sure I have watched every western ever made, 10x over. Sorry, I veered off course for second. Anyway, good memories.
@PatriciaTumlin3 They’re mad because they couldn’t funnel the money through some government program back to them. They’re bitter because they wanted to steal the money.
It’s sad how many people know almost nothing in a time when every answer sits right in their pocket. We have the easiest life in all of human history yet somehow act the most ignorant.
Our ancestors worked the land from sunup to sundown, buried half their children, and still survived winters with no heat, no medicine, and no grocery store. They would walk into 2026 and figure it out in a week. Most of us would be dead in a month from pure incompetence.
How do you live this soft and still stay this dumb
xAI builds AI that actually tries to understand the universe. It makes tools like Grok that answer questions with the truth instead of the usual filtered nonsense. Some people still call it just another chatbot or Elon hype. They’re wrong. It’s already live and working. How exactly is it Nazi software that will destroy the human race?
@calamityjane65@glenn_tunes Neuralink links brains to computers and could help restore movement and speech. No humans have died from it, those claims are false. Animal testing caused some deaths and the fear of privacy loss or mind control remains.2/3
SpaceX built the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy, the first rockets that routinly reuse their boosters for orbital launches. They now handle most of the world’s orbital flights, fly cargo and astronauts to the ISS for NASA and run Starlink internet for remote areas. Starship is next a bigger rocket for Earth orbit and deep space 1/2
Israel is really pushing it. Who do they think they are, refusing Hamas and Iran’s calls for friendship? James, I don’t know about you, but when an Islamist regime extends its hand to show “peace be with us” and sends thoughtful gifts all the time, sometimes suicide bombers, the rockets feel a little much, but everyone shows love differently. You keep thinking they will never show you love, but they really love to spread that love. Maybe you will find the rockets thoughtful. Maybe you are a suicide bomber type of girl. Are you into that “let’s blow up a building or two, maybe a plane” kink? To each their own. Love is in the air.
@jamestalarico Wow, look at us westerns, going around pushing the two state solution; I mean, who the hell would not want to listen to our scholars in the west. Whom think we know better than the country who live under terroristic threats all day, every day.

I can’t vote for someone who thinks there are 6 genders and has nothing on my list that will better the lives of Texans. No way in hell am I willing to hand over the keys to these communist. I will not speak much about his views on the Bible and murdering babies. Like all of us he has to stand before God. I have my own bad choices to be ashamed of. My God have mercy on us all
