  • Also funny how those senators that voted no are up for reelection this year and won their primary...

  • What?! I can't believe it Elon lied to us! Who could have seen this coming!?... /Sarcasm

  • Multiple articles have stated in 2024 changes to state law requires a special election to fill a vacant Senate seat. Before that, a 2021 law allowed the political party holding the seat to submit three names for the governor to choose from, rather than leaving the selection solely to the governor. Political experts cited in the report say timing requirements mean the window to call a special election would be tight, with an estimated cutoff of Aug. 3 based on candidate filing and notice deadlines. It's why if it's announced Aug 4th it'd would have been weekend at Bernie's essentially and why people are calling on Governor Bashear to just call a special election to force their hand.

  • I've started to see an uptick in bot accounts across different platforms saying something along the lines of "lol there's no need for negotiation. if the usa really wanted to destroy Iran, all it takes is a push on 1 button. if anything trump is showing alot of restraint". So definitely building towards actually having boots on the ground if the uptick of strikes on kharg island is correct. Could also see that operation go sideways and call for full scale invasion as a false flag event.

  • You are right. I'm so exhausted seeing all these news articles question why trump would do that to workers when in reality he's literally the biggest narcissist that gets the most attention.

  • It's ironic because Alitos family didn't arrive from Italy until 1914 as well.

  • How could Hunter Biden do this?!

    /Sarcasm

  • Inflation rose to 4.2% based on today's reports and you've got ExxonMobil and Chevron CEOs warning of severe energy spikes in July and Aug....gonna be fun....

  • They'll also deflect and say still not 9% we saw under Biden.

  • I believe the condescension you mentioned is real, but it’s magnified tenfold because we're all trapped in media echo chambers. Most normal people aren't obsessing over these niche topics, but the media and political machines weaponize them to keep us divided.

    It perfectly exposes the hypocrisy on free speech on both sides. The left’s online gatekeepers treat disagreement as a moral failing, effectively chilling free speech through social conformity. On the flip side, the right screams about censorship while using state power to ban books, police classroom speech and insist that Christianity is the only acceptable religion. Both parties rely on these culture wars to control what we can say and think, all while abandoning any real, material help for the working class.

    Republicans have just done a better job of identifying the issues facing everyday people and campaigning on them, but they rarely have a plan to actually fix them. Spencer Pratt's website for LA mayor is a great example of this. While he highlights the exact issues hurting regular people, there is zero substance or realistic plan on how any of it actually gets done.

  • Oh man the novel trump is about to write on truth social about this is going to be like 3 parts.

  • Especially on his own platform. It's why I've always hated the media spin of an article saying people want xyz and there's no poll only a couple screenshots off Twitter.

  • Or when Tesla bought SolarCity

  • Not shocking at all he lied based on his past. Let's all also remember Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag notoriously spent nearly $10 million of their reality TV earnings between 2010 and 2012, specifically because they believed the world was going to end on December 21, 2012....so maybe let's not pick him for mayor.

  • Technically I think Gabbard and loeffler are left.

  • It's exactly like the office scene you just have to declare something.

  • Once ai opex budgets get cut the GDP is going to tank. Ai investments have been propping up the numbers and stock market with no real path to sustained revenue at the investment rates. Just ai and probably ketamine psychosis these CEOs have.

  • And any fines are essentially pennies that just get factored into the cost of doing business.

  • Technology @lemmy.world
