@salltweets This is great! People aren't used to seeing public debates of ideas and even less so seeing Leftist ideologies being subjected to facts and critical thinking.

OTOH, you're probably safe from any of them taking you up on your kind offer...

@Jrovin2025 @TheRabbitHole Oh come on, the reason it's deferred is so that you get the income later when you're in a lower bracket. That's the point of it, I know. So let's not pretend it's not a gift for the rich stashing away money for retirement...

@Rasmussen_Poll At least the Republicans have 3 viable candidates lines up. Recall that the Democrats haven't run anyone that's not been a compliant puppet for the communist establishment in many years.

@OwenGregorian I guess some Rachel Maddow is an alien from another galaxy, she could be detained...

I stopped using Grok since the quality went down recently (delays and dumb answers) and then it started saying I'm running out of tokens after only asking it simple questions. For most things, Gemini is faster and better answers. It sucks what happened to Grok recently presumably to help the new Bots...

@prageru Ask those people if the baby is half way out, does it count? If it's 3/4ths out but then climbs back inside, does that count as a baby then?

American corporate governance is still totally blind to China. A few people understand the threat, but most are hopelessly naive.

Jensen Huang’s fawning over Beijing has been discussed here on Twitter for years. Videos of him being affectionate with that Chinese spy were circulating publicly. You would think the board of the world's most valuable company might take an interest in that sort of thing, particularly when the woman's business network was moving billions worth of Nvidia chips into China. But apparently not.

American corporations spend fortunes navigating a massive labyrinth of compliance requirements, with armies of lawyers, risk managers, and compliance officers obsessing over everything from the precise height of bathroom grab bars to the font size of mandatory disclosures. But somehow that same corporate compliance industry wasn’t able to spot a Chinese intelligence operation sitting across the dinner table from the CEO.

Perhaps they should add that to the compliance checklist.

@MZHemingway The Senate GOP replacing the old failing and unpopular leadership would at least hold onto the sliver of credibility the GOP once had.

Who would effectively wave an incompetence flag??

[Tim Conrad @TimConradB623]

@salltweets I note that you said "accept" and not "believe". Belief isn't so important because they will support their political cult to remain in it, keep prestige and power, and not be shunned by rejecting it.

Jim Jones cult believers...

@OwenGregorian I think we need a national agreed-upon policy on the limits that the government is willing to sacrifice innocent people in the intelligence war...

[Tim Conrad @TimConradB623]

@OwenGregorian So wait, you can get Trans credentials by transitioning from one type of man (say brave) to another type (say confident)?? This gets weirder every year...

[Tim Conrad @TimConradB623]

@OwenGregorian He filled a complaint that he wanted to have sex with her? I've never met such a man. They should study that curiosity...

[Tim Conrad @TimConradB623]

@Sargon_of_Akkad This is why your country is fast tracking to authoritarianism. COVID revealed the compliance level of people today. They are not like Americans in 1776...

If you “heard us” Thune would not be minority leader.

[Tim Conrad @TimConradB623]

@FondOfBeetles Funny!

[Tim Conrad @TimConradB623]

@catturd2 Dues anyone else think this comparison when they see Thune?

[GKC @american_can]

@SenSanders Dem communists eating their own.

[Tim Conrad @TimConradB623]

@catturd2 We should cancel Thune from the GOP public. Pretend he's not there...
