Q: What do you tell Americans who are concerned that repealing the endangerment finding comes at a host to public health and the environment based on science?
TRUMP: I tell them don't worry about it. This was all a scam. They'll have more money to spend for healthcare.

Okay okay yes, I know, but hear me out - we HAD this TV growing up. This was what we listened to Chipmunks Beatles and The Wall records. 8 tracks. It broke so we bought a black and white tv to put on top of it so we could watch the Ewoks movie.

Very sorry if this sounds sexist, but she was more like those models who would hold up signs at E3 back in the day, representing the president, instead of someone who is supposed to be defending justice. When your response to justice is to bring up finance, you are clearly unfit for the job.
The Attorney General of the United States refusing to look at or acknowledge Epstein Survivors today in a House Judiciary hearing. The world is watching. History will remember.

A close friend in Maine reports that things are terrible there, as much as in MN, short of the executions in the street (so far). I don't know why we don't see much about it in the news. I see an occasional hint here, but she says she has family out protesting and witnessing in a bigger city.

He made a game that's title and concept is a play on eugenics. I was already out there - I'm not a prude, I dug the horror of BOI, but making light of eugenics as an American where it's being utilized by the state as we speak? "Hard pass".
And then I saw the names involved...

My heart goes out to Hookland, the king on the deck of ravens, on this Woden's Day.
Hello. Still without necessary IT and health issues mean I may have to leave the county long before I would wish. However, I am still filling notebooks and hope to be able to restart an intermittent service at some point soon. I am also discussing how best to make Hookland permanently available.

Anything that offends the top two dipshits is very likely to be a good thing.
House Oversight hearing on ICE opens with the rules:
"It is also a clear violation of the rules of the House to make statements that might personally be offensive to the President or the Vice President of the United States."

NEW: Ring has introduced "Search Party", a horrifyingly dystopian feature nominally designed to turn all of the Ring cameras in a neighborhood into a dragnet that uses AI to look for, in their commercial, a cute lost dog.
With Ring, US consumers are actually building a surveillance dragnet.

If any ancestor of yours had Canadian citizenship, and you can prove it, then you have Canadian citizenship. It is a right, you just have to claim it. The only cutoff that may exist is the existence of the country. Meaning 1867. And even then, it might mean earlier.
