Kasper will remain an adviser at the Pentagon in a special government employee role, limited to working no more than 130 days a year.

And also consequences are for show, he's not really fired.

It makes sense. The damage Trump does to the the economy will be felt by everyone, and even right wing media struggles to defend the tariffs.

In contrast, immigration as a political issue has always been about hype and narratives more than reality. The anti-immigration argument is mostly fighting an imaginary problem. As such, the effectiveness of the policies are irrelevant, they need only to claim that things are getting better and their supporters will believe them.

I would be much more interested in knowing what people think about the specifics of Trump's immigration policies. How many people support deporting us citizens, suppressing free speech, violating due process, etc. I would bet that those numbers would look very different.

Getting closer to what I want, which is a reasonably sized and priced EV truck built for actual utility. I'm ok with it leaving out all the extras that I don't need, and hopefully that means it isn't also going to be tracking people and harvesting their data.

My biggest objection to the truck itself is that it's still trying to look like an ICE truck. There's no engine in front, you could easily slide the cab forward a bit to make room for a larger bed. I would much rather have a tiny frunk and an 8 foot bed, even if it means making the whole thing slightly longer. It's shorter than a corrolla, so it's not like they couldn't add a little length to the design if necessary.

Bezos being involved is also a massive turn off, but than I'm not sure who is going to go into mass manufacturing EVs without some rich asshole funding it.

Also being able to get anything in diet instead of just one or two things.

Or diet everything.

Pretty sure the only way I'll get to be done with working is when I'm done with breathing.

In the op-ed, McMahon says, “Why? Not because we want to be unkind to student borrowers. Borrowing money and failing to pay it back isn’t a victimless offense. Debt doesn’t go away; it gets transferred to others. If borrowers don’t pay their debts to the government, taxpayers do.”

But when businesses need a bailout...

Also, hilarious coming from this administration. How many bankruptcies has Trump been involved in?

Not like they were going to get any help from this administration anyway.

And let's not forget Elon and his Doge bro minions. They're destroying the security around every system they touch, firing the people responsible for that security, moving sensitive data out through starlink to God knows where, and apparently just giving logins to Russia.

Almost makes storing nuclear secrets in a bathroom seem quaint and wholesome by comparison.

That's not true. It's led by the finest collection of imbeciles the modern world has ever seen.

The bill compels state and local authorities to “use all lawful means necessary” to enforce its provisions, and would subject authorities to prosecution under existing weapons of mass destruction statutes if they refused to investigate alleged violations of the law.

As if this wasn't awful enough. Were this to pass, you could spam out anonymous tips to any authorities you have a gripe with, with allegations about anyone you you want to harass, and failure to investigate any of those allegations could lead to serious prison time. And you know damn well they wouldn't hesitate to use a law like that to target anyone that resists their insane nonsense.

having their status revoked by ICE or the president himself with no justification given. Other than blatant racism.

That's not true. They also do it to punish free speech and to intimidate others into remaining silent.
