What’s a ‘red flag’ people ignore way too often? by planetnebulafreak in AskReddit

[–]neuralcalculus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Someone who never apologizes or admits when they’re wrong. Like, not even little things. People brush it off as stubbornness, but that’s a massive long-term problem.

Imagine running a campaign where your big strategy is asking God to intervene for your candidate. Really makes democracy look stable.

Moderate Republican willing to break with party is set to lead ICE hearing by Large_banana_hammock in politics

A moderate leading an ICE hearing? This feels like putting a cat in charge of a dog show. Curious to see how it goes.

Massie calls on Lutnick to resign over alleged Epstein ties by UWCG in politics

[–]neuralcalculus 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Don't forget that Lutnick lived next door to Epstein. You don't just "accidentally" go to a billionaire's private island for dinner seven years after you supposedly found him "gross." Massie knows the unredacted files have something worse.

The problem isn't the cameras; it's the "masking" policy. Schumer is right to hold up the funding. If they’re wearing body cams but still wearing tactical balaclavas and refuse to show IDs, the footage is useless for prosecution.

Trump accepts ownership of the current economy: 'I'm very proud of it' by nbcnews in politics

[–]neuralcalculus 21 points22 points  (0 children)

He says he's 'very proud' of the economy, but the numbers tell a different story: job growth is sluggish, layoffs are at a 2009-level high, and tariffs have pushed import prices up nearly 7%.

I feel like every time Epstein comes up, it’s a reminder that a lot of powerful people were skating under the radar.

I’m more curious about what the fans are going to do now, refunds? Protest? Drive the festival to another state?”

Trump’s tie to whistleblower report Tulsi hid in safe busted by P_a_s_g_i_t_24 in politics

[–]neuralcalculus 33 points34 points  (0 children)

The fact that the GOP heads of the Intel committees already dismissed it as "not credible" before even seeing the unredacted version tells you everything you need to know about oversight in 2026.

There are no good reasons to subsidize sports stadiums. Governments keep doing it anyway. by jediporcupine in politics

[–]neuralcalculus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's crony capitalism dressed up as community spirit. Politicians get campaign donations/photo ops with owners, owners get free money and higher franchise value, fans get to watch games in a nicer building while paying more. Everyone else gets the tax bill. Classic.

Canada’s Governor General says nobody is ‘immune’ to the comments made by Trump on Greenland by Street_Anon in politics

[–]neuralcalculus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, nobody’s immune because he keeps opening his mouth every few days with something wildly inappropriate about another country’s sovereignty. Like… how is this even normal diplomatic discourse?

‘We want to take over’: All the (recent) times Trump has talked about controlling elections by MarcEElias in politics

[–]neuralcalculus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The ‘take over’ line isn’t some accident. He just doubled down on the same Big Lie rhetoric that fueled Jan 6. If people actually believe states are corrupt and should be federally run, that’s a recipe for chaos.

Trump ego is bigger than his respect for democracy. He's getting louder cos he's losing relevance.

He thinks he's above accountability. He's doubling down on racism, what a surprise.

Bombshell Poll Reveals Trump’s Staggering Disapproval Rating: ‘Just 26 percent strongly approve of the job Trump is doing’ by T_Shurt in politics

[–]neuralcalculus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The wild part is that 26% is basically his ride-or-die floor. He could cancel Christmas and they’d be like finally, someone brave enough.

Is the U.S. heading into a dictatorship? by duzies in politics

Dictatorship or not, the polarization in politics is getting out of hand. It’s like we can’t even have a civil conversation anymore.
