  • If you're like me, it's a great opportunity to ruin the family picnic with politics and pressuring maga relatives. Likely won't change any minds, but maybe I'll luck out and not get invited next year.

  • Eh, Auschwitz took nearly two years to convert from camp to gas chambers, and sounds better paired with alligator. Potato, potato from my perspective.

  • Can you elaborate on the distinction you're making?

  • The house can stop it, but that seems unlikely. It had a better chance of block in Senate.

  • That was my hope after bush 2, then again after first trump term. Then the country provided republicons every lever of power as a reward. I'm not holding my breath of anything swinging anywhere.

  • Jesus fucking Christ that's dark but entirely possible.

  • That's just good old fashioned republican efficiency. These boys better get their bootstraps and figure out which conglomerate they're gonna sell the farm to.

    • Farmhands deported, can't find replacements
    • $200k labor grant suspended indefinitely
    • Lost subsidies, making less money on product
    • Tariffs jacked up equipment prices and repairs
    • Depends on Medicaid, no insurance if it's cut

    Oh boy, way to seriously fuck yourself from every conceivable angle, smart guys. Sumo wrestler lookin leopards after this one.

  • Is it too distasteful to make this into a meme? I can't take this seriously at all.

  • I wonder how it feels when VTEC kicks in on a literal rocket

  • Trump team is already walking it back after they started taking preorders and a journalist found the model. They're now claiming they meant to say it could eventually be made in America. It's a $170 Chinese phone they're marking up to $500

  • I believe the Made in USA Labeling Act passed 2021 would prevent following the Moto X approach of just final assembly, but I suppose it's up to trump's FTC to make the final call regardless, easy enough for them to issue an exception.

    Specifically:

    it is an unfair or deceptive act or practice within the meaning to label any product as Made in the United States unless the final assembly or processing of the product occurs in the United States, all significant processing that goes into the product occurs in the United States, and all or virtually all ingredients or components of the product are made and sourced in the United States.

  • “a sleek, gold smartphone engineered for performance and proudly designed and built in the United States.”

    Alright, so clearly this is a bald-face lie? How the hell can they claim this? What kind of made in america SOC are they using?

  • npm is having issues as well with publish and installs. Fun fun day.

  • And there's the rub. Shame they're already on a plane out of here, nothing US can do.
