@#3 ... It's about making cars more Expensive. ...

Not more expensive,

Just more profitable.

Or don't your current alias' issued talking points take into account Capitalism?

For starters, I would like to see a more precise description of "pressured."

Was the White House just pointing out misinformation on Facebook?

Only 27?

Does that look like a benefit to the MAGA folk?

But it does go back to a question I have asked before...

Why does the self-declared party of Law And order seem to break the law so frequently?

Have the Democrats, with the Presidential nominee being a former prosecutor, now take that Law And Order appellation from the Republicans?

@#39

I dunno.

Those TLAs (Three letter Acronyms) tend to be a curiosity for me.

... "In 2021, senior officials from the Biden Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire," Zuckerberg wrote in a letter to the Committee on the Judiciary of the US House of Representatives. And while it was Meta's decision whether to remove content, he continues, "the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it."

During the pandemic, Facebook officials drew ire from critics of lockdowns, vaccines and masking mandates because it removed certain posts, saying they contained misinformation related to the virus or otherwise went against its policies. In all, Facebook took down more than 20 million pieces of content in just over a year. Zuckerberg joins other social media executives, including Jack Dorsey, former CEO of blogging platform Twitter, in lamenting past instances of content moderation that, in their view, went too far. ...

@#38 ... posting song lyrics. ...

Really?

My posting of the lyrics from the song Wet Dream has your alias all astir?

Well, for starters, the puns in those lyrics are quite good.

And, secondarily, thank-you for noticing.

... This is a big FN deal. ...

Yeah.

But no.

It is as #18 states, a Yawn.

For all the reasons the comments on this thread state, the comments your alias seems to conveniently ignore.

But ignoring things you don't want to hear seems to be a creed for the MAGA folk.

Maybe that is why FoxNews seemed to find the need to lie (to the tune of nearly $800M) in order to maintain its audience?

@#21 ... that is something that might have to happen AFTER a case is reinstated. ...

Yeah. That's how I view it currently.

If SC Smith wins this appeal, then that gives him an ability to file something [not sure the exact name] to have Judge Cannon removed from the case.

Whether or not he will do that, well ... I will also say that I've not a clue about his strategy in this particular case.

@#4 ... Apparently this self-appointed "Board" is in violation of Georgia State Election Laws and therefore has no authority make new "rules". ...

If that is the case, then the Board would be able to delay the election results while the "violation" case makes it's way through the courts.

Isn't that what fmr Pres Trump wants in our elections?

Uncertainty?

OK, allow me to state this differently...

Why do fmr Pres Trump and his MAGA cult members not seem to want elections progress appropriately?

Is fmr Pres Trump so afraid of a valid outcome that he sees the need to toss a wild-card into the election process?

@#16

imo, you're being kind.

@#13 ... Your peeps totally blew a legitimate case of criminal mishandling of classified materials. ...

Aside from the "your peeps" aspect, which I disagree with...

What evidence does your current alias have to present to substantiate it's assertion?

Or is the comment just the usual disruption attempt of your current alias?

AC

@#15 ... All caps makes you look like a complete jackass, ...

Yeah, reminds me of the times when fmr Pres Trump uses all caps.

@#29 ... Nobody takes you seriously.

Nobody. ...

Now your current alias appears to think it speaks for the entire world?

Suggestion: Do get a grip on reality.

@#6 ... Don't believe him. He's trying to subvert expectations. It worked for his debate with Biden. ...

Maybe.

But lowering expectations may not work with VP Harris.

And I suspect fmr Pres Trump (or his campaign) may know that.

I am sure you see the larger level of energy that VP Harris shows compared to Pres Biden or fmr Pres Trump.

imo, that is the major issue fmr Pres Trump faces, and seems to be afraid of, in a debate with VP Harris.

He seems to be old, feeble, and also seems to have a major inability to stay on topic.

If I had to guess, I'd say that the latter is what his campaign would be most concerned with, should he debate.

@#10 ... But Dems were so corrupt and incompetent and so hyper-politica ...

How so?

Apparently your current alias has evidence to back up what it states.

More from the analysis ...

... Why it matters: It might. Trump knows that nothing matters more than economic issues. That makes the next 71 days a battle to convince voters their wallets are still hurting.

- - - The former president is seizing on every negative bit of economic news to make the point that the economy is much worse than the Biden administration says.

The big picture: Vice President Kamala Harris is doing the opposite and grabbing onto any good news. It's a cherry-picking battle.

Zoom in: Trump falsely claimed last week that the Biden administration manipulated jobs data after a standard " and scheduled " revision showed the U.S. economy created 818,000 fewer jobs than previously estimated.

- - - Trump was wrong on why " and how " the new numbers were released. But the labor market is cooling, news that Trump wants to drive home.

- - - "Americans overwhelmingly disapprove of Kamalanomics because no one can afford it," RNC spokesperson Anna Kelly says.

- - - "After three-and-a-half years of sky-high inflation on everything from gas to groceries to housing costs, voters are feeling the pinch as a result of the Harris-Biden spending spree." ...

Between the lines: The risk for Trump is that his doom-and-gloom approach could turn into a self-fulfilling prophecy. If he wins, he'd be inheriting an economy that's slowing down -- and will be much harder to speed up with words alone. ...

@#5

What does alliteration have to do with the topic?

@#1 ... Jumping into a new car from the driver's seat of something built before 2010 can cause quite the case of future shock ...

I can relate to this.

When I bring my 2002 car into service, and I am given a 2024 loaner car for the day, the experience of driving that 2024 car is odd.

For starters, where I would expect a dashboard to be, I am now presented by what looks like a living room entertainment center.

And I also say good-bye to any tactile controls on the dash. Controls are all "touch" controls, with the inherent problems they present.

... Jumping into a new car from the driver's seat of something built before 2010 can cause quite the case of future shock. Over that time, automakers have been on a technology frenzy, loading up new vehicles with all manner of gizmos, gadgets, and features, some meant to make your life easier, others to make your journey safer. But do car buyers actually want all this stuff? A new survey by JD Power suggests they may not. ...

This is the America fmr Pres Trump seems to want.

More from the article...

... People in a quiet neighborhood in Carthage, a town in Moore County, North Carolina, heard a series of six loud pops a few minutes before 8:00 p.m. on Dec. 3, 2022. A resident named Michael Campbell said he ducked at the sound. Another witness told police they thought they were hearing fireworks.

The noise turned out to be someone shooting a rifle at a power substation next door to Campbell's home. The substation, operated by the utility Duke Energy Corp., consists of equipment that converts electricity into different voltages as it's transported to the area and then steered into individual houses.

The shots hit the radiator of an electrical transformer, a sensitive piece of technology whose importance would likely be understood only by utility company employees. It began dumping a "vast amount" of oil, according to police reports. A subsequent investigation has pointed to a local right-wing group, one of a wave of attacks or planned attacks on power infrastructure.

By 8:10 the lights in Carthage went out. Minutes later, a security alarm went off at a Duke Energy substation 10 miles away, this one protected from view by large pine trees. When company personnel responded, they found that someone had shot its transformer radiator, too. Police found shell casings on the ground at the site and noticed someone had slashed the tires on nearby service trucks. ...

@#8 ... The 11th Circuit should come to that conclusion themselves, you'd think ...

While I do not disagree.

One question that lingers here is ... does the Appeals Court need a motion for her removal in order to decide upon her removal?

In other words, does the Appeals Court need arguments presented to them in order to decide?

I have not a clue to that answer.

@#11 ... They're just using all the "Commie" stuff they had ready for Bernie. ...

My view...

They are using the "commie" stuff to try to appeal to the old, boomer FoxNews watchers who equate "commie" with how they remember "Russia."

That is, trying to equate Democrats with Russia, when it is the Republicans who are majorly cozying up to Russia.

Typical for the GOP, accusing others of what they are doing.

@#24 ... Didn't the guy who stood in for Trump in Clinton's 2016 debate prep end up supporting him? ...

Who was "the guy" your comment refers to?

Here's what I found...
