I was about to say, you nod along with Ted until he starts into the racist bits.

Nah, aside from the WH UFC fight, the "Michelle Obama is trans" bullshit has been floating around since 08 when Obama was running the first time.
No, there's a scaffold in front of the WH to support the asinine UFC fights tonight (and the stands for those). It's a temporary structure, theoretically (though of course, Dear Leader has floated the idea "as a joke" of just keeping it in place permanently "for other events".)
Not if they're hit with a missile or another satellite. Debris could pretty easily be rocketed up into a higher orbit from a military strike.
remove and destroy
Nah, we only wanted to remove it. Trump and Hegseth have both been public that we should start building another huge wave of nuclear weapons, and you need uranium to do it. Far easier to try and mug someone else for theirs (and their oil and whatever else you think you can get) than it is to actually buy it and refine it yourself.
Every time I hear about a solar flare now, I kind of hope for a repeat of the Carrington Event.
Or they're doing what my company does, and holding offerings open to harvest resumes, either to sell the data or to have people they can throw on a list for their recruitment staff. Also just pumping numbers for board meetings - "we had 9k applicants for these 3 positions" sounds impressive and not dystopian to a certain type of investor.
For those not doing the math - assuming a trillion dollars just gets dumped into a bucket labeled "world hunger" (because we as the world decide to start taxing millionaires, billionares, etc heavily), and assuming we'd need $93 million to eradicate it annually, we could eradicate world hunger for the next 10,752 years.
If an insurance company refused to carry a cop, they'd be sued out of existence by every police union and booster org in the nation.
As someone who's anti death penalty for any case, I'd prefer we waste money on incarcerating people if we must, rather than risk killing the wrong person. People have made entire careers out of justifying why an (usually) innocent person has to die, using a lot of junk science (bite mark, hair, thread analysis, a lot of CSI stuff is absolute bullshit or at least no better than 50/50).
The crime is usually better known as "being black in public". More specifically "being a black authority figure".
Stand-up was literally started as an idea by a man who self described as a fascist. Behind the Bastards did a decent two parter on it...last year?
