Why would any community out there put these in if the company you are purchasing them from is going to try and lay claim to the video footage you take using a machine you purchased from them? It’d be like a VHS company trying to have the copyright to any movie that was played on its VHS player.

This big beautiful bill will add trillions to the debt, starve, children, and make the economic divide between the top 3% and the rest of the nation even greater.

I just listened to the congressional hearing were they announced that over five years the big beautiful bill would put 4.7 trillion on our national debt, and over 30 years. It would be 30 trillion. If interest rates go up one percent that number becomes 50 trillion. That’s their numbers.
Mamdani got into office and instantly: • Froze rent for 2 million New Yorkers • Cut subway fares in half for low-income riders • Fully funded NYC parks • Added $680M for public schools • Launched free child care for 2-year-olds If establishment politicians actually wanted to help you, they could.
This is coming from a bunch of people that won’t release the Epstein files because it will cause chaos within their own party. I agree with Joe, if this is the position, the Republican Party wants to stand on, they can go fornicate themselves.
I believe we are dealing with is a Schrödinger's McConnell situation
He is absolutely aware that if he does not have control over the results of the election, there will be a landslide against the Republican Party and he will end up being impeached, convicted, removed from Office, and brought to trial for crimes. $1.4 billion while serving during his first year? Cmon

I just want to thank all the men defending Platner for pointing out who we shouldn’t leave our drinks alone with. We see you. You’re not special. Every woman has encountered you. We appreciate the heads up.

With fuel likely to stay at nine to $10 a gallon for remote parts of Alaska during this winter because of a illegal war in Iran, every place in Alaska should be looking for alternative energy sources that cannot be subjected to supply chains. The president can play with like string on a puppet.
Alaska Beacon@alaskabeacon.com · 4w agoAs Trump buyouts shake offshore wind industry, states hope developers stay in the game, writes Alex Brown for @stateline.org alaskabeacon.com/2026/07/07/r...
Let me get this straight, we don’t have money to build an Alaska Corridor for energy, rare earth minerals, or to help everything in Alaska become less expensive through improved infrastructure, but we have money to throw at taking, installing troops, and controlling the same resources far away? Hmmm
VoteVets@votevets.org · 4w agoBREAKING: In DIRECT VIOLATION of the Constitution, Donald Trump has resurrected his push for the U.S. to acquire Greenland, saying it “should be controlled by the United States,” and suggesting the U.S. could pull ALL TROOPS out of Europe if they refuse to acquiesce. Denmark is a NATO ally.
I blame Vince McMahon. He lets this guy do a couple of shows and the next thing you know he’s treating Washington like an episode of Monday Night Raw.

If we had a dual presidency with offset years, modeled after the shared power of the European Union, we would give the power back to congress where it belongs, take away from the pressure of elections, and change the electoral process. A presidential council for some decisions sounds good right now.

The American Reserve Modernization Act, proposed by Congressmen Begich, only makes this worse. This is a bad idea- it turns the federal government from a referee of markets into a speculator in one volatile asset. That speculation forces taxpayers carry the risk, crypto get federal legitimacy.
