Reading his words really slams home which side of the political spectrum truly believes in personal freedom and liberty. And it's not the side that promotes fascism and wants to implement a Christian version of Sharia law under the Ten Commandments.

Except CA isn't fairly represented in the House either. CA would need 68 representatives just to have the same representation as Wyoming.

And say, shouldn't the states that have a huge economy and bring in more tax dollars have more of a say than the red welfare states that suck up those tax dollars? Just sayin...

Oh seriously, f right off. Nobody wants Tesla drivers to die, they just want Musk accountable for killing the ones that died because they believed his constant lies in the videos he released and speeches he gave that "Autopilot" / "Full Self Driving" and "ROBOTAXIS ARE COMING" meant that the cars actually can drive themselves.

Tesla only succeeded due to the hard work and innovation of its two ACTUAL founders. Ever since Elon did his cuckoo bird routine and pushed them out of the nest, Tesla has fallen behind all other car manufacturers, and have only managed to stay afloat trading carbon credits for government cash. Instead of releasing a low to mid-priced model to compete, he squeezed out the cyberturd. And SpaceX is going to ruin any chance of humans getting off this planet with Starlink. In 6 months, Starlink satellites had to make 25,000 collision-avoidance maneuvers, and they are on an exponential curve. It's not if, but when they screw up and start the beginning of the Kessler syndrome.

And Starship is the biggest government grift of them all. That PoS will never make it to the moon, much less Mars. It's going to end up just like the Hyperloop.

Elon is a con-artist whose only talent is constant market manipulation, insider trading, and fooling the gullible.

I'm so glad I listened to all the posters who said voting for the Democrats was voting for GENOCIDE. Boy we sure dodged a bullet there didn't we!

Does anyone else remember the 2016 debate with Hillary Clinton where she accused Trump of being a puppet for Putin, and he interrupted "No puppet, no puppet! You're the puppet!"

Or when Alnur Mussayev, the Russian officer who served in the KGB's 6th Directorate in Moscow, said that Trump was recruited as a Russian agent in 1987, under the codename "Krasnov", when he went to Russia for a "real estate project".

Um, the founder of Collective Shout, Melinda Tankard Reist, absolutely identifies as a pro-life Christian who has said that her faith 100% influences her activism.

So it's absolutely hilarious that you believe we need to "understand our enemy", when you've failed to identify the faith and influence of the founder and primary force behind it.

The problem is with a shitty latch: the hood appears closed, but it's not.

The OTA Update doesn't fix the shitty mechanical latch - it still doesn't latch consistently. What it fixes is another poor design choice: evidently, the car has sensors that can tell if the hood was closed correctly or not, but this was never turned on/programmed? The OTA Updates this so now the car can warn you when the shitty latch fails.

Or who knows, maybe they initially turned off that sensor because it was going off all the time because of the latch...

Oh, didn't you know? The police are under NO requirement to protect at the individual level.

The Supreme Court of the United States explained that it is a “fundamental principle of American law that a government and its agents are under no general duty to provide public services, such as police protection, to any individual citizen.”

This is the most braindead comment I've read here yet. Google search Democratic Party Platform and you'll find a 92 page document covering everything you pretend to be looking for. Now Google the Republican Party platform, and you'll find it's "Whatever Trump wants at any moment'.

You could be complaining out of sheer ignorance, which is a common feature in today's political environment, when a simple Google search has the answers for the 'do your own research' generation, or you are being disingenuous on purpose to push the Both Sides Same narrative.

"just because there isn't a file named "Epstein's client list.docx" doesn't mean there isn't info about his clients."

Exactly, this focus on a "list" drives me crazy. If detectives investigating a murder don't find a piece of paper with the victim's name on it in the killer's possession, they don't throw their hands up and say, damn he got away with it.

Epstein's entire business model revolved around having receipts on his clients, that's how he stayed out of prison for decades, and it's why they are covering it up now. This isn't a conspiracy theory, it's a supressed criminal investigation.

Just wait for the quid pro quo. SpaceX was supposed to get us back to the moon on 3 billion dollars. They are now at 5 billion dollars, and all they have to show for it is a flaming husk of a booster caught by "the chopsticks".

For anyone who thinks that was some incredible accomplishment.. NASA has been landing rovers on Mars using truly incredible engineering that makes SpaceX look like a bunch of kids eating Baby Ruth bars in the sandbox.

So if Elon gets appointed to a government position and starts awarding Tesla and SpaceX all kinds of extended taxpayer-funded gravy grift, you will know your pet theory is 100% spot on.

A tolerant society can not tolerate intolerance. One side will attempt to "just live", but the intolerant side is incapable of "letting live", and they will not stop until they replace tolerance with their system of hate.

You're so right!! Remember in the early 80's when they deregulated the Savings and Loan Banks, expanding their authority to make loans and reducing regulatory oversight? What a great idea, that was. Getting rid of those unnecessary regulations really stimulated greedy white collar and political criminals, they stole everything they could until the whole system crashed, and that deregulation ended up costing taxpayers a 160 to 175 billion bailout in today's dollars.

What a deal, right? What a boon to the economy, what a next level brain you're working with. You know, every time we hear someone cry about the need to deregulate, it's either a pirateer looking to steal more money from the taxpayers, or a useful idiot who drank their kool-aid.

Imagine applying for a job as a backend engineer and not knowing, based on the job posting/qualifications needed that they were a Windows shop.

Or just imagine generating this fake Gmail in Gemini or ChatGPT and posting it to farm the rage.

USAID was established in 1961 by President John F. Kennedy via executive order under the authority of the Congress-passed Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. While authorized by this legislation, it was later formally codified as an independent agency by Congress through the Foreign Affairs Reform and Restructuring Act of 1998.

Sadly, a LOT of people stayed home and did not vote for Kamala Harris, or they voted 3rd party, and Trump was elected to run the Executive branch. The Trump administration decided the executive branch could choose which laws they executed. The opposition was immediate and lawsuits were filed, but the gears of justice grind slowly, so here we are in 2026 with depositions finally starting.

I guess you missed the part where OP wrote "NOT VOTING IS VOTING".

In the 2020 election, 81,283,501 people voted for Biden while 74,223,975 voted for Trump.

In the 2024 election, 75,017,613 voted for Harris, while 77,302,580 voted for Trump.

Thata 155,507,476 - 152,230,193 = 3,187,283 fewer people voting.

Biden got 81.2m votes vs Harris getting 75m votes... in other words, people who showed up to vote for Biden in 2020 sat out and didn't vote in 2024, which directly resulted in Trump winning.

Not voting is voting, get it now?

It's weird watching Idiocracy become a documentary in real-time. When farmers can't get fertilizers from Canada, I'm waiting for Trump and Elon to announce a partnership with Gatorade as the new Crop Quencher.

That text you italicized so proudly, is what Tesla CLAIMS happened. Did you know Tesla repeatedly told the court that they did not have the video and data that had been captured seconds before the crash, until a forensics expert hired by the PLAINTIFFS found the data, showing Tesla had it the entire time?

Gee, why would Tesla try to hide that data if it showed the driver engaged the accelerator? Why did the plaintiffs have to go to extreme efforts to get that data?

A jury of 12 saw that evidence, you didn't, but you believe Elon the habitual liar so hey, keep on glazin'.

Well look at you, licking police boots hoping you get permission to go all the way up the thigh!

Coombs and other family members say that Destinii was lying on her mother’s chest when a police bullet hit her in the head. Destinii’s mother also died, from a second bullet family members say came from the same officer.

Meanwhile, in the two weeks since the shooting, Independence police have refused to give any details about the shooting. But hey, you keep licking those boots nice and clean.
