US needs to sever all ties with Elon, cancel his government contracts, and deport him. Do it yesterday. A single trillionaire with no loyalty to anything or anyone except greed and ego with the power to influence a globally destablizing conflict with the flip of a switch.
"Ukrainian troops have been caught off guard by restrictions on Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite internet systems that disrupted frontline operations, while Kyiv received no warning from its partners of a Russian missile attack on its energy facilities for the second day running."
A press secretary unfamiliar with punctuation, phrasing, and pronunciation seems like a bad thing.

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854
Oh, look who didn't win a Nobel Peace Prize...again. Oh, well. He still has his FIFA peace prize.
Surprised these barbarians didn't put it on pay-per-view.
The Pentagon says it plans to livestream an execution. Pete Hegseth said the public will be able to watch the firing-squad execution of Nidal Hasan, convicted of the 2009 Fort Hood mass shooting, scheduled for December 3. Turning a government execution into a livestream should alarm everyone.

Amid all the questions about the $5000 "dividend" I have yet to see anyone ask what that is actually worth. It *might* get you 1 year of in-state, public community college tuition...*just* tuition. It's < the average credit card debt It's < 3 months rent for national average 2-bedroom apt
Why no, I didn't hike an hour and a half uphill to this place to listen to your fucking Bluetooth speaker from across the lake you fucking self-centered asshole.

A Canadian town's famous warm welcome doesn't extend to US ambassador on 9/11 anniversary
Gander, Newfoundland, opened its doors to more than 6,000 stranded air travellers on 9/11. Now they wonder if Trump's representative in Canada belongs at their commemoration.

There is zero reason to believe that the Post Office will follow any directives from the courts that don't serve the administration.
PSA: Election officials in California, Oregon, Washington and elsewhere are telling voters if you can, return your ballot through an official ballot drop box rather than trusting it to the mail.
Someone needs to re-record "Tennesee Whiskey" and change the lyric "You're as smooth as [Canadian] whiskey
