  • Hes a long term buddy of the chief deputy, so that did it for him. The chief said he's known him for 40 years and doesn't think this outburst will impact his policing.

    So instead of getting reprimanded in any real sense or getting fired, he got a strongly worded letter and had to make a public apology that let him blame it all on Ambien.

  • October surprise: Trump just blew a huge lead, and the Madison Square Garden rally started the drop, says top data scientist

    Jump

  • Here's a list from just that rally:

    Former president Donald Trump hosted a rally where speakers made numerous vulgar and racist remarks inside New York's Madison Square Garden on Sunday.

    Speakers at the rally called Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee, "the Antichrist" and attacked Hillary Clinton, the Democratic nominee eight years ago, as a "sick son of a b****."

    Speakers also made racist comments about Latinos and Black people, both key voting blocs in the election that is just over a week away. Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe branded Puerto Rico a "floating island of garbage," said Latinos love "making babies" and joked about "carving watermelons" with a Black friend for Halloween, while radio host Sid Rosenberg called the event "a Nazi rally."

    Here, Newsweek rounds up some of the most shocking comments made at the rally.

    'Floating Island of Garbage'

    Tony Hinchcliffe, a stand-up comic, said: "I don't know if you guys know this, but there's literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. Yeah. I think it's called Puerto Rico."

    Trump senior adviser Danielle Alvarez told Newsweek that the "joke does not reflect the views of President Trump or the campaign."

    'These Latinos, They Love Making Babies'

    "Believe it or not, people, I welcome migrants to the United States of America with open arms. And by open arms, I mean like this," Hinchcliffe said, while waiving his hands and mouthing: "No, go back."

    He added: "It's wild. And these Latinos, they love making babies too, just know that. They do, they do. There's no pulling out. They don't do that. They come inside, just like they did to our country."

    'We Carved Watermelons Together'

    Hinchcliffe also pointed to a man in the audience before saying: "That's cool, Black guy with a thing on his head. What the hell is that, a lamp shade? Look at this guy! Oh, my goodness. Wow! I'm just kidding, that's one of my buddies. He had a Halloween party last night. We had fun, we carved watermelons together. It was awesome!"

    Harris Is 'the Antichrist'

    "In fact, she is the devil, whoever screamed that out. She is Antichrist," said David Rem, a sanitation worker billed as Trump's childhood friend, although it has been reported the pair met for the first time just two weeks ago.

    Harris and 'Pimp Handlers'

    "Kamala Harris is the least qualified candidate to ever run for any political office in American history," businessman Grant Cardone told the crowd.

    "She makes her boss look competent. She's a fake. I'm not here to invalidate her. She's a fake, a fraud. She's a pretender. Her and her pimp handlers will destroy our country. They will."

    'Nazi rally'

    "I just got back from Israel about two weeks ago. They love Trump in Israel. Just you know, they love him," radio personality Sid Rosenberg said.

    "I get back and they go, 'Sid, you want to speak at this MSG thing?' I go, 'Sure—out of character for me to speak at a Nazi rally. I was just in Israel.' But I took the gig."

    'Sick Son of a B****'

    "She is some sick b******, that Hillary Clinton, huh?" Rosenberg said. "What a sick son of a b****. The whole f****** party. A bunch of degenerates. Lowlives, Jew-haters, and lowlives. Every one of 'em. Every one of 'em."

  • Just so no one mistakes the above as hyperbolic, musk actually said this during an engineering meeting. His engineers kept telling him why Tesla needed the extra sensors, and he replied "people just have eyes and they can drive."

  • This is nonsense.

    FPTP voting means there are 2 viable options only. If you don't vote for the "lesser evil," you are voting for the "greater evil."

    Choosing to not make a choice is still a choice. Voting for "not Harris" is the exact same thing as voting for "yes Trump" in our system.

    You're voting for the greater evil by voting for Jill Stein, which is exactly what her and her partners Putin and Trump want.

  • Coordinating directly with Putin, the oligarch dictator of Russia, who is currently engaged in a genocide in Ukraine, to elect Trump, a US presidential candidate that has told Israel it "needs to finish the job," a person whose son in law has said gaza is "excellent beach front property," and who hid the number of drone strikes and their casualties caused during his admin, is the lesser evil?

    I'd call the above stupid, not its far to disingenuous to be an actual real perspective.

  • Well, start here at a dinner she attended in Moscow in late 2015:

    Years later, after Trump was elected, she claimed it was just perfunctory, with no real interaction with Putin. She also claims she received no payment for being there, although we know Flynn received 45k from Putin for his attendance.

    Then there is this from 2016 about Russian efforts to divert Clinton voters to stein. She also received intense press coverage by RT, Russians propaganda TV station, that was not banned in the US at the time.

    Here she is refusing to call Putin a war criminal, a stance she suddenly recanted days later.

    Here is evidence she is currently working with the GOP.

  • Tons of questions here, but sure I'll give it a go.

    Any autonomous or nearly autonomous hardware device would be taxed. Exceptions can apply. Maybe autonomous tractors are not taxed because food is needed, but unemployed farmers also need to be cared for.

    As to the code question and m365, maybe, maybe not. It may be reasonable to tax all cloud automation as a whole, or maybe just all SaaS, leaving IaaS and PaaS out of it. Exceptions may apply.

    The tax would be on the good or service forever, yes. If you displace human workers with automation, then thry need their basic needs met for human decency, but also so they don't tear society to pieces, justifiably in my mind.

    Incumbent companies using automation may have an advantage, but only until they use a new robot or new automation. That advantage goes away if they are stuck 5-10 yr behind to avoid a tax. If they want to keep avoiding it, newer companies using taxed but getting a huge productivity booster will surpass them. That will incentivise them to use the tax producing goods or services and remove any initial advantage.

    I think I would also be okay with "no tax until you hit X automations" as well. You clearly can't give tax breaks on employees, as not employing people will be the whole point of this, but you could likely work it out.

  • Most laws aren't retroactive. If you do the thing before it's illegal, then you skated by. That could very easily be the answer here, especially as most all the physical automation is barely existent. If a company deploys now, they don't pay the tax, but they will when they upgrade models.

    As to code automation, same rules apply. Excel macros get by, but I would apply the tax on companies that replace white collar jobs via SaaS or other applications as their core businesses model, or for that line of buisness for vendors that do a lot of things. It would have to be refined as to where you draw the line, but you could.
