  1. Lolol. Musk stuggles with the consequences of his actions... m2-res_480p.mp4
  2. Elon Musk does this kind of thing all the time. He presents a concrete number which could mean something of consequence, but the actual relevant number is some small part of the number he shows so you don't really know. He surely has at least some estimate for the smaller relevant part, but doesn't give it. Why would he do such a thing? Here he has definitive number on the numbers of SSNs issued to non-citizens. He then says that some of those people they found registered to vote. Why not say the actual number registered to vote? He says some of those registered to vote have indeed voted. He doesn't say how many of them voted or what elections they found that they had voted in. Why wouldn't he give that number? It really is the most important number. How many of these non-citizens issued SSNs by the last administration voted in the last presidential election? Could it be that the number that actually voted is inconsequentially small? Presenting the larger number and saying some of them voted makes it seem like it could be a huge problem. Musk and DOGE have used this tactic before. With the SSA database they have on numerous occasions noted the number of individuals with DOBs over 120 years ago that are not marked as deceased in the system. They quote a huge number and say that it is a massive problem. Why don't they ever say the number of 120+ year olds receiving benefits? Could it be that none are actually receiving payments from the program? Quoting the large number of alive 120 year old could mean there is a huge problem and justify their departments work. Musk has done this with Tesla products. When unveiling the Tesla semi Musk quoted the range of vehicle and the overall weight which seemed impressive. The website says "300-500mi of range" when "Fully Loaded at 82k lbs Gross Combination Weight." That is an impressive range and a heavy load, but how much of it is cargo? They don't say. How much does the semi weigh without the trailer? They don't say that either. The impressive range is likely possibly through an extremely large and extremely heavy battery meaning that a small fraction of the 82,000lbs is cargo. Why not give the actual number everyone wants to hear? People interested in voter fraud want to know how many of those non-citizens voted in federal elections. People interested in social security fraud want to know how many 120+ year olds are being paid by the system. People interested in using the telsa semi want to know how much cargo they can transport with that 300-500mi range. The actual numbers don't send the message he wants being sent.
  3. What money are you talking about?
  4. Lol not sure what you mean. The original theory was that the country was going to Democrat forever in twenty years. The revised theory is that he was off by 20 years. I reckon he must mean yhe US will be Democrat forever in 40 years because 20 years the other direction would could say is wrong right now. I think the original theory was dubious to start and full of logical holes.
  5. So it happened now instead of 20 years from now? Wouldn't that mean the country is _now_ Democrat forever. Have you considered the possibility that you were just wrong altogether?
  6. At least Sanderson, Long, Conaway, and Lawson were teammates with Taylor.
  7. At least the one that beat him out for the 157 spot his freshman year.
  8. Only the third Hodge winner though!
  9. Pre 2022 criteria for the award was a wrestler’s record, number of pins, dominance on the mat, past credentials, quality of competition, sportsmanship/citizenship and heart. Now it is record, dominance, bonus-point percentage, quality of competition and sportsmanship. Pins are still considered as part of the bonus-point percentage criteria. Sportsmanship is still there. Citizenship and heart have been removed as criteria.
  10. Only recently has that become the case. Before the criteria changed in 2022 it includes "Past credentials" as a selection criteria. I am sure some voters still go by that.
  11. Four more to add this year. Is that a new record? 4 transfer champs in one year. It was very nearly 5 with Troy Spratley losing a close match at 125. Mitchel Mesenbrink Cal Baptist->PSU Dean Hamiti Wisconsin->OSU Stephen Buchanan Wyoming->Oklahoma->Iowa Wyatt Hendrickson Air Force->OSU
  12. An entire team wearing MAGA hats? One reason I ask is that at least one athlete wore a MAGA hat on the floor at NCAAs. It didn't seem that controversial.
  13. What about a MAGA hat? Wouldn't the high school state championship have more difficulty regulating messages on banners/clothing/etc? Being run by the government it would be subject to the protections of the 1st amendment. That said one year at districts I wore a t-shirt from my offseason club under my warm-ups. An official saw me with my warm up jacket off and the t-shirt exposed. He told me that wasn't allowed and shirts either had to be blank or school issue. Said it was a rule and threated to take a team point. I don't know if that was true, but he did not take a team point and I did not change the shirt.
  14. Maybe NPS messed up when they gave away Mar-a-lago. If Trumps is going there 2-3 times/month it might have been worth it to keep it.
  15. It's a very strange looking gun. Guess it's a good thing Tesla made them bulletproof.
