This sort of comic book corruption is quite literally illegal in every single country in the world that has written laws. I don't even know what else you say about this, it's amazing

The defence you say then: is we need them in case we have a tyrannical government.

Is this not s tyrannical government ?

Or do you use them just to shoot kids ?

Someone on FB suggested renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of the Cretaceous Meteorite. It was tongue-in-cheek, of course, but humans might owe their existence to the Chicxulub event. Such renaming might help our species collectively reframe our self-concept.

I'm reading informed speculation that Trump's tariffs are imposed to give corporations and industries a reason to support Trump’s interests: Buy Trump Coin and/or contribute to the presidential library, then ask for tariff relief. Extortion, in other words.
