Current US Policy:

If you’re suspected of trafficking a small amount of drugs with no evidence, we will murder you, but if you’re convicted of trafficking an enormous amount of drugs with copious evidence, we will pardon you. Because we are currently a very stupid country.

BREAKING: The Michigan Court of Appeals has sided with Senate Majority Leader Winnie Brinks. Speaker Matt Hall’s attempt to block nine bipartisan bills from the governor has failed. This ruling is clear: no one, especially no politician, is above the Constitution.

Undocumented immigrants paid $100 billion in taxes in 2022. It would cost $300 billion to deport them all. They're here, they're working, they're contributing. Give them a pathway to citizenship.

All these Christian nationalist morons acting like Muslims peacefully living in our country for decades is a cause for alarm while their orange messiah agrees to have qatar build an air force base in Idaho. When has the US ever had a foreign country build an air force base within its borders? Wtf?

If someone’s not mourning the death of Robert Redford in a manner that’s consistent with your views, make sure you set up a database, call their employer, and get them fired.

I mean, I think he was planning season two before he even finished season 1 considering how long ago he started working on the pilots license, so he's probably working on something even now.
What if there’s never another season of the rehearsal or anything else form Nathan Fielder and he just spends the rest of his life flying airliners

You fought for habeas corpus, put it in your constitution, and now you’re just gonna let a game show host take it away? You’re not losing your rights. You’re handing them over.

So you can take over Greenland and Canada but can’t send a plane to pick up someone you are paying another country to hold for a year? Weird take on sovereignty.

HAPPENING NOW: Judge Boasberg holds a "show cause" hearing on whether the government defied his orders when it deported Venezuelans accused of being members of Tren de Aragua to a nightmarish Salvadoran prison

Agreed. I kinda feel like connecting the oven to the internet could be a fire risk that isn't worth taking.
My oven is a pretty standard thing but it has this feature called "rapid preheat" where it will run both the broil and the bake elements together until it's within 50° of your target.

This feature is approximately 700X more useful and interesting than having it connected to the internet.

What if, Congress passed a law terminate the delegation of authority to the executive branch agencies to implement their legislation and closed all of said agencies and reopened new agencies, with the same functions in the legislative branch?

If a Democrat fired 100 FAA employees and put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers 8 days before an airport plane crash, there would be a right-wing and media frenzy for weeks.

UPDATE: Secret Service agents — not ICE — were denied entry at a Chicago school despite initial CPS reports, a CPS source said.

Secret Service agents were looking for an 11-year-old who posted an anti-Trump video, the source said. https://buff.ly/3EatFDz
