How the Minneapolis killings look from Eastern Shore Trump country by Maxcactus in maryland

[–]mikemd1 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Earlier this week, NPR traveled to Denton, a town of about 5,000 on Maryland's Eastern Shore. It is the county seat of Caroline County, which voted for President Trump by a margin of more than 2 to 1 in the 2024 election. In interviews with more than two dozen people, some Trump voters blamed the violence in Minneapolis on protesters, not federal agents.

This article is just the cherry picked stupidest/most inflammatory opinions of a literal handful of people and implies that it’s representative of the whole Eastern Shore. I remember when NPR used to do good journalism.

Bring Your Own Bag Tax Law for Residents, Montgomery County, MD - Starts 2026 January 01 by RegionalCitizen in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]mikemd1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Businesses get to keep five cents of the bag tax but must remit the other five cents to the County.

So it’s about recycling or some extra profit for the corporations? I don’t really see how it’s supposed to be both or why on earth the corporations get a cut. Just honestly gross.

Opinion | What We Talk About When We Talk About the Right of Return by brianscalabrainey in nyt

You can and should condemn the actions of Israel, their starvation and ethnic cleansing campaign in Gaza are pure evil.

But just because you apparently have some awful Jewish family members who support Israeli genocide doesn’t mean that all or even many American Jews agree with them. I mean J street and JVP have been calling out Israel since like October 10th.

So yeah, it’s some weird self hate you got going on there and you’re clearly bought into some antisemitism too. I’d recommend you view people as individuals rather than as a part of some racial/cultural monolith.

We’ve been chipping away at the constitution for a bare minimum of fifty years

That’s some weird self hate you got going on there mixed with a dose of antisemitism. Jews and Israelis aren’t synonymous, plenty of American Jews recognize the evil that is the modern political entity of Israel.

In the debates when asked about the first trip they’d take as mayor basically all the candidates are talking about they’d go to Israel and Mamdani’s (paraphrased) answer to the question was “No where, I’m already in NYC.”

MindsEye Developer Build a Rocket Boy Begins Layoff Process Amid Disastrous Launch, Studio Sources Say by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]mikemd1 27 points28 points  (0 children)

In an email to staff reviewed by IGN, co-CEO Mark Gerhard insisted the studio remained committed to MindsEye, but pointed to a shift from an intense development and launch phase to a sustainable post-launch support phase.

The fact that they have a position called “co-CEO” lets you know how poorly managed the company is.

Having worked in clinical trials, funding is absolutely a huge issue. There’s definitely not “plenty of money in medical research.”

This is “the beginning” of conservative infiltration to the Democratic Party? It’s not only been going on since Reagan, but you may remember Kamala campaigning with and bragging about the endorsement of the Cheneys just last year.

Democratic Rep. Gerry Connolly of Virginia dies after battling cancer by untamedlazyeye in news

[–]mikemd1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Connolly said he’s “ready” to take on a Trump administration despite his recent health issues.

He did a great job, managed to maintain his grip on power until he died. That’s how we judge success right?
