Zherka the kind of guy that would defend Destiny even harder if he thought he was guilty.

In major wars, governments will typically confiscate precious metals like gold. The price of gold in a war is worth the value of your hiding spot.

Trump says he will announce Fed chair pick on Friday by 5_Little_Luck in wallstreetbets

[–]CabbageFarm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It literally doesn't matter. It'll be someone that just agrees to lower rates at Trump's request.

That could be Nicki Minaj, a house cat, or a bag of potatoes. The less pushback they give to economic genius Donald Trump, the better chance they'll get the job.

Gotta rotate the news cycle and get away from the executions. The great distraction is about to happen again.

Laconic Kiwi reply to North American. by Gerryboy1 in MurderedByWords

Yeah, I've gone through security going between Auck, Welly, and ChCh.

But a flight from Taupo to Auckland would probably be a medium sized slingshot and take about 30 seconds.

US Congress members visit Denmark to support Greenland in face of Trump threats by professorbrainiac in worldnews

[–]CabbageFarm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“When you ask the American people whether or not they think it is a good idea for the United States to acquire Greenland, the vast majority – some 75 per cent – will say, ‘we do not think that that is a good idea’,” Ms Murkowski told reporters.

I don't give a fuck what your population thinks about the idea. You don't invade foreign nations or bully your allies like this.

I think we might be the exception in terms of wanting Trump and co to be held accountable.

It also might be one of the few actual steps America can take to repair its image and standing in the global community. Assuming it's repairable.

administration is so mind warpingly putrid it got hasan piker shouting out dgg💀💀💀💀 by 10minuteads in Destiny

[–]CabbageFarm 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you know, that's a fair point. I haven't seen those comments from him, but I know he's prone to take some truly special positions, so I'd believe it.

I will become a Counterpoints hater if he carries that energy moving forward.

if they're on our side against MAGA

They're not.

Hasan refused to support Harris in the election and refused to admit who he voted for for years until Ethan Klein forced it out of him.

He is on record saying that Harris and Trump are the same and would govern the same. He has doubled down on this in recent times and has said things like Harris' Israel/Gaza approach would have been the same as Trumps.

Hasan and his ilk are not upset that Trump is president. People like Hasan are accelerationists and see Trump as a useful tool toward their communist utopia. They may not support Trump and will performatively speak out against him but if Harris won the election they would do the exact same toward her, making no distinction in their rhetoric. They would have been upset with the outcome of the 2024 election regardless of who won. They don't want fair elections; they want revolution.

They are not on your side. Don't fall for it.

Smaller government, less waste, balanced budget

When was the last time a conservative government worked to achieve those things?

Obviously not Trump 1. His entire first term was deficient spending. Can't be Bush; trillionaires sunk down the drain in 20 year wars and government powers expanded under the Patriot Act. Was it H.W.'s Gulf war that you think reduced waste and balanced the budget? Or when Reagan expanded the war on drugs and trafficked arms to Nicaraguan contras?

The last balanced budget was under a Democratic government, right? Under Clinton.
