USA Political Discussion Thread 2025

If the MAGAts could feel embarrassment, they would be, after the charade parade the convicted felon held. I don't watch the faux news networks but I can't even imagine how they would spin this.
In particular in light of the 9M+ marching in protest.
Compare that to the artistry and historical pomp in the Trooping of the Colours in London. No, no sorry, shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence.
How humiliating for the US majority.

The Russians are trolling Trump.

The subtitles read: "The parade Trump imagined." and "The parade Trump saw."

Yep after years of Republicans ruling the budget agenda since Gingrich with the conservative wing breaking their own principles budget after budget ; we might see the blue states getting some awareness and even leverage with this way of thinking. 👍

Trump directs ICE to pause raids against certain industries

and this is how the whole thing unravels... you can't say that US law applies to some americans and not others. other industries will be in court and on the phone with Trump and then he's going to be in yet another bind.

well that didn't last long... seriously, if an idiot like me on the other side of the continent can figure out that some decision by the most powerful man on the planet is putting him in a bit of a bind, then who the fuck is helping this moron out?!

ICE officials told to resume raids on hotels, restaurants, farms

that doesn't mean that there isn't going to be a lot of "nudge, nudge, wink, wink" stuff going on but it appears that immigrant labor isn't getting the message that they shouldn't fear showing up to the farm!

Texas farmers hit hard as migrant workers avoid ICE

I not a fan of Carleton, but the interview is about what is happening to our society today.
The loss of innovation due to control.

Touched on.... repair of your equipment or why you can't repair it.

If you are a car enthusiast, you like the conversation. Minus the interruptions.

the automobile industry is a sanctioned monopoly. its actually amazing that Elon and Tesla were able to do what they did because for decades its been impenetrable.

its additionally supported by pervasive laws around the entire structuring of north american society around the automobile.

i'm having to buy vehicles for children... i'm usually looking at vintage machines that can be understood and fixed without proprietary tools.

Appeals court won’t let Justice Department step in for Trump in E. Jean Carroll’s $83M verdict

" A federal appeals court panel on Wednesday refused the Justice Department’s effort to put itself on the hook for an $83.3 million defamation award advice columnist E. Jean Carroll won at trial from President Trump. "

apparently Trump tried to do this in his first term... make the US tax payers responsible his $83M legal problem!
