A publicly advertised community discount at a fixed time isn’t what she’s talking about, but it’s nice to know when a prestigious economist isn’t above glibness in the absence of a counterargument
If you think the economy is bad now don’t forget the Big Beautiful Bill’s provisions will go into effect in the next few months, catapulting tens of millions of amerikans into forced hunger and culling Medicaid by a trillion dollars
when this video first dropped I was like "hey uh why are Americans funding catapults to start wildfires in Lebanon?" and hundreds of Israelis came into my replies and were like "it's actually a trebuchet idiot"
Just so people are really aware of what this means: A Trump appointee has approved Trump’s personal crypto firm to operate as a bank
Corporations can conduct transactions in which the Trump family gets a cut
The public will not have to be informed
There’s no precedent for this
If correct, this looks like a wildly botched CIA-involved operation that murdered a bunch of fishermen with bombs from drones, tortured survivors and witnesses, and may have even assassinated the famous prosecutor investigating the case in Ecuador.
Can we get Church Committee round 2 yet, Congress?
I can't help but notice that I am seeing a lot more dragon sighting videos since the advent of generative AI.
Could it be that AI's adverse effects on the environment are leading to a change in their behavior, e.g. lack of water sources that causes them to move closer to cities?
The prosecutor who was investigating these CIA strikes was murdered. One of the boats is still missing. Survivors of the other two strikes say they were tortured before being dumped in El Salvador. All 3 craft were licensed commercial vessels cleared by Ecuadorian authorities and there is no indication they were engaged in drug trafficking. This is a scandal and horror of epic proportions.
One of my favorite movies of the last few years. A hilarious and demented flick. A film for anybody who’s noticed lately that America is an open-air insane asylum
I am thinking of the numerous ferguson activists and organizers who were shot dead in the years following. the right co-opted their struggle and turned it into a culture war they'd win a decade later, judging by the way everyone talks about it now.
