NYC Mayor is his top track, he wasn't born in the USA so that should limit his exposure nationally. He's a convenient strawman for the right so I'd say that keeps him safe but there are guns everywhere so who really knows.

I'd say tax them something like 50% of fair market rent each month it's empty.

Didn't Biden deport over 4 million without needing gestapo tactics? It's clear that even the deportations aren't really the main goal, it's fear and repression of the population.

And it's being reported that Trump is even deporting people at a lower rate compared to Biden, which is very telling when you consider how little attention this was getting with Biden.

It's a movie plot but I wish somehow hackers could inject random anti Trump memes on all phones just to see what happens.

The USA and the UK were massive supporters of Saddam and his reign until we decided he was no longer useful. Literally giving him billions and billions of weapons. We allowed him to consolidate power and act as a destabilizing force in the region until we decided he was bad, but until then he was a very close ally. https://archive.globalpolicy.org/iraq-conflict-the-historical-background-/us-and-british-support-for-huss-regime.html

The Alters has been insanely fun the last week or so. Pretty interesting science fiction space survival, resource gathering, base building. Some of the mechanics around quantum computing is quite unique.

It's worth diving into what they are classifying in this influencers group. They even point out that some of it offers helpful and genuine support. But it sounds like they would even consider a men's therapy or coaching business in this group, or even something like that Mankind Project. I am just guessing but that kind of group is a world away from the typical toxic manosphere stereotype.

The survey only involved like 950 people and it only defined it as, "the rich" which seems pretty vague. Given the survey also mentions Bezos and Musk it wouldn't surprise me if that is the group having too much on this survey, not humble millionaires like you and me.

Honestly I was amazed it wasn't cancelled by executive order before and Trump's birthday made a federal holiday.

Everyone should go check out The Alters, it is a pretty weird game but a lot of fun with a great story and atmosphere. It's a space survival, resource/building, race against incoming death game.

That's the same talking point we've heard for decades but even US intelligence reports have said the opposite, even earlier this year. I'm sure they could create dirty bombs but that only requires nuclear power plant waste.

Posturing is what Iran does. They've done that at least since the early 90s. But US intelligence services have repeatedly come to the conclusion that Iran is not ramping up production, at least based on the briefs even from a few months ago earlier this year.
