Schumer needs to go. He doesn't have the nerves his job requires. His messaging is weak. He's weak. Once again, he looks like a loser.

I agree with CS, why let the shutdown even happen if you can't whip the support to sustain it.

Diversity of opinion in the Democrat party is good. But from the beginning, they all knew the stakes of a prolonged shutdown would be high. They should have all agreed from the beginning to be totally unified until the end, or not even tried in the first place.

Chuck doesn't have the leadership or the political acumen for these types of battles. Heck, he didn't even try to whip a unified front near the end.

Also, we need to wise up about geriatrics in politics. FFS.

Whites aren't popular after they perpetrated hundreds of years of slavery, genocide, and apartheid.

This is totally understandable.

Definitely feel bad for the unpaid tower controllers and overworked airport/flight staff.

I wouldn't fly for nothing right now. I have been in travel quagmires, missed flights just to rent a car. It can be miserable.

Plus, I like people, in theory. But when cooped up with 1000s of a them, all pissed off as I am, I like them not so much.

I see nothing!!

I'm gonna miss following her stock portfolio.

McDonald's is good at lowering the prices of their crap food during harder economic times to the point that it's more affordable than real food from the grocery store. They've been doing so since August, and even more so recently.

In Trump's mind, McDonald's is groceries, and it is getting more affordable.

So take that, libs!

The runners are just people trying to make ends meet, so killing them does not result harm to the cartels in terms of "skilled" human resources.

It's easy to assume the cartels will recruit through coercion when cash doesn't work.

I've always doubted that the U.S. strikes are much of a deterrent at all. If anything, it hurts our side because we look terrible, which in turn helps the cartels and Maduro's regime. This story proves it, imo.

Ignoring the abhorrent moral implications, these strikes are just bad strategy.

No kidding, especially considering the billions in taxpayer subsidies given to Musk's companies in conjunction with his complaints about his own tax dollars.

I have lots of opinions about stocks that I don't own, or no longer hold, or might hold in the future. All investors do, it's called due diligence.

tardSarge musta spent all his money on Pabst and doesn't invest. So his opinion doesn't matter.

Elon claims Tesla is an AI company, but he already has an AI company xAI. Tesla is going all in on Robotaxi and robots. Neither venture will be profitable enough to justify a multi-trillion valuation.

Waymo is worth around 50 billion and is years ahead of Tesla in the driverless transport market. Elon's taxis remain under human supervision.

Elon's robots also do not have the potential for such high valuations of Tesla. The idea that households will spend tens of thousands of dollars for a robot, plus presumably hundreds or thousands per year for the software updates, just so they don't have to fold their clothes is ridiculous. Even if they did, it's not enough to justify such high valuation. Factories and assembly lines are already using robotics and have been for decades, so no game changer there.

Tesla is already massively overvalued solely because of Musk's cult following. The current stock price has nothing to do with fundamentals.

*70,000 streamers

(Still not much)

Was that before, or after, the dog abuser showed up to the party and demanded a VIP seat because he had 7k streamers watching?

Which he was denied and promptly throttled (again) by the entire internet.

If your religion can't even help your own leaders with morality, why should we ever think it can help with the country's?

Well that's a misfortunate typo...

Comprised

So, the police officers seem to live...outside of the city they serve?

Police should be compromised of the community it serves.

What's yer issue with that statement?

His revisionist history and self-ordained but undeserved exceptionalism.

Anyway, your fake immigrant facade aside, NYC is as much my community as it is yours.

Only, I like our cities and you despise them, as you do with everything American that isn't your flavor of MAGA extremism.

Didn't you learn about NYC, the Statue of Liberty, or Ellis Island for your civics exam?

Some "immigrant" you are. LOL.

If Mamdani gets through his term without getting indicted or being outed as a pervert, it's a win for NYC.

It seems like the guy actually cares about his community, so I'm optimistic.

I heard he wants free public transportation. That's some hardcore commie extremism! (meanwhile, mainstream conservatives literally stomp our citizenry into the asphalt)

Putin is hoping we get bogged down in a war so he can point to us to justify his "special military operation' in Ukraine.

Well, there goes my plans for the weekend. Dang!

Ah yes, Adobe.

The company that promises the ultimate improvement in productivity, but really just kills productivity and causes rage with their endless popup ads.

*in my best Dennis Hopper voice*

Windows? F**k that ---! sudo apt update!

Lewandowski has some competition as Kristi "Cruella" Noem's Jasper.

Ah yes, so goes the libertarian in their dire time of need.

I hope he can get the care he needs, and I hope it works.

Hey, we're getting our own paramilitary Response Support Force (RSF) in our cities here in the US!

Awesome!
