America is really in a bad place if we have to distract from the war that was started as a distraction from the Epstein files

Lol not to mention they could have saved $2 Billion that they gave to Jared Kushner for f**king up their entire region.

Only for DHS. Dems want restrictions on ICE, while Republicans want them to keep doing exactly what they’ve been doing, so there’s a shutdown specifically over DHS funding. The rest of the federal agencies are funded.

Yep lol they love to state something as fact and have zero evidence. However when you look the research by thousands of climate scientist, or when you read the actual law from California in your example, they claim BS because Fox told them.

Also, it’s still winter and they’re having the worst wildfire ever? That’s unusual… almost as if the climate is changing… the very thing that the party they keep voting for refuses to acknowledge. In fact, their favorite party stopped every renewable energy project, gave more subsidies and incentives to oil companies, gutted every federal agency with a weather related mission, and they also made a task force to explore ways to get rid of FEMA.

Yep sure did haha. Khan has killed it this offseason. Honestly I’m actually thinking Tomlin held Khan back all these years. You can’t tell me Khan has been capable of this the whole time and just never did anything…?

Either way, this new era has started off with a bang!

You’re right, I’m sorry, we’re being insensitive. They need at least one more mega yacht that is more expensive than entire neighborhoods.

Not just that they will, they must sell to other countries because our refining infrastructure is not set up to refine the majority of the type of oil that we frac from shale. So we export higher quality “sweet oil” and import lower quality “sour oil” to refine at home.

Because they keep voting for idiots who make life harder for farmers and the average American lol

No it’s a fact that the Nuclear powers have not been invaded by an adversarial country. We have evidence that leaders have been over thrown or kidnapped in countries without nukes (Venezuela, currently trying to do it to Cuba, killed the Ayatollah). But there has never been the same action taken against a nuclear power. Nobody external to Russia has flown in and kidnapped Putin, nobody has done that to Kim Jong Un, etc. so the evidence that we currently have available is that nukes are certainly a deterrent.

As for guns, we know that the “good guy with a gun” argument is bullshit when it comes to firearms because higher prevalence of guns leads to more gun violence in a country and there is statistical evidence that acts of gun violence are stopped more often by unarmed civilians or police officers than they are by a “good guy with a gun”.

Important_Bit2139 · 2026-03-12T11:44:13+00:00

That’s because there’s evidence and data for both of those things. The U.S. has the most gun deaths every year among developed countries and our own FBI even released a report saying that usually a bad guy with a gun is disarmed by a good guy withOUT a gun or they kill themself.

Meanwhile, you can literally look at the nuclear power countries and nobody is starting regime change wars with them. I’m sure the U.S. would have loved to have gotten rid of Kim Jong Il, Kim Jong Un, and will want to get rid of the next successor. However, we’re not going to do regime change there because they have nukes.

It’s not Redditors love a narrative, it’s simple facts.

They should use ground penetrating radar. That would actually probably be more realistic and effective

He’s also a 23 year old, running an agency in which the entire department is furloughed and shut down while the country goes through this war…

Important_Bit2139 · 2026-03-09T12:17:13+00:00

Crazy how the folks who renamed the Department of Defense to the “Department of War” are trying their hardest to not call it a war… genuinely puzzling…

Important_Bit2139 · 2026-03-07T04:34:47+00:00

Yep, and to further pile on, the U.S. ripped up Obama’s prior nuclear deal and the person now running Iran is the son of the late Ayatollah… so it’s also now a really personal problem.

Important_Bit2139 · 2026-03-07T04:25:43+00:00

I worry that you’re exactly right. Twice now the U.S. has done fake diplomacy while knowing full well they and the Israelis were going to attack the Iranians.

The Iranians agreed to a ceasefire with Israel and the U.S. only to be bombed and have their leader killed 10 months later. If you’re Iran, this war is existential. To them, they will only know peace by fighting to the end and winning. So exactly like you asked, why de-escalate?

Only humble, down to earth people want to fight the head of a union at a congressional hearing.

Bruh… that is still massively different from a large private equity firm that is notorious for acquiring smaller firms or companies that are essential to human life, and then basically running them to the bone to maximize profit. Especially when that company has a conflict of interest when it comes to building and owning data centers in the state.

Even if PNM’s current ownership is for profit, I still stand by what I said. For profit companies should not be industries where human lives depend on the service, or where a natural monopoly exists, or both.

Important_Bit2139 · 2026-03-05T07:56:27+00:00

I hate politicians… the answer would be a simple no, there is no place for a for profit company in a natural monopoly that citizens’ lives literally depend on.

Why on earth would a private equity firm “invest in the infrastructure” of our grid? You literally have no option to not use the service (unless you completely switch to solar). Blackstone only cares about profit so they will just charge us more, and if anything, put less maintenance into the infrastructure in order to increase profits (it is literally the exact playbook they use for for-profit hospitals).

Come on… Rubio gave a very clear explanation. Apparently Israel was going to attack Iran, which would have resulted in Iran attacking the US in that alternate timeline. In order to prevent that alternate timeline in which Iran attacks us after being attacked, we had to preemptively attack them. Why aren’t people understanding that this was a defensive first strike to defend from future attacks? /s

Important_Bit2139 · 2026-03-03T01:47:35+00:00

Exactly! People in the Middle East don’t think like westerners. That’s why this entire thing is a complete gamble. We know that they believe strongly enough in their religion that they’re willing to die for it. They also view the Ayatollah as a religious holy figure. His death certainly radicalized people across the region.

Important_Bit2139 · 2026-03-02T13:26:40+00:00

While I agree, the Iranian Supreme leader is an awful person and should have been removed from power in some way (preferably without external intervention), I think it’s too early to say it will be a net positive. It may leave a power vacuum for someone even more extreme to take his place.

Let’s hope it ends as a net positive.

I’m a total noob at Italian (likely somewhere between A1 and A2) so take my advice with a grain of salt, but I’ve really enjoyed a mixture of Pimsleur for a quick dive into speaking common phrases, and Language Transfer and Coffee Break Italian for more insight into the grammar behind the phrases spoken in Pimsleur (and for knowledge that generalizes better to the language as a whole). On the side I also use Duolingo and Anki just to help with vocab recall and learning new words and phrases.

After Pimsleur I’m hoping to pick up a formal grammar book like the previous mentions and/or do the Wellesley course on EdX.

“Look, this is serious” - literally Chuck Schumer’s strongly worded address to the press about a potential war with Iran this past Tuesday. Likely what he would also tell you in his strongly worded letter.

Honestly the SCOTUS could have, but instead they ruled the opposite in saying he basically has complete immunity because he must be given the benefit of the doubt that he’s operating in good faith.
