  1. Need to mention that X isn’t receiving the millions in tax dollars from the FBI that twitter did.
  2. What a maroon.
  3. Ironically, if the IPCC's projections are to be believed, global warming may occur, and we will adapt to it through innovation. All the resources that Europe is burning up in a phantasmatic "energy transition", which has failed and will fail -- will just burn through money that we will then not have for innovation. What will Europe do when these misguided ideologies have permanently broken the back of its economy? https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/20470/germany-murder-of-europe
  4. X. has become more like a town square than an Intelligence operation since Musk bought it.
  5. Because only the folks who want to MAGA aren’t terribly worried about protecting the government’s right to censor the people’s speech? The error in jackson brown’s hypothetical is that it would be the government encouraging the kids to jump.
  6. How would it go if he lets NY take possession of the property and after going to the expense of seizure, managing, process of sale, he wins the appeal and they have to return the property to him? Be careful what you wish for.
  7. Or you could go educate yourself. Otherwise, you’ll finish the day just as ignorant as you started it.
  8. Yes, but the technology that makes fracturing so productive is directional drilling. Fracturing has been around since about 1930. Instead of drilling down to the zone and fracking from there, they can now turn and drill through the zone, fracking that entire distance. They changed it when the data came back that showed the temperature hadn’t gone up. Even though the record shows fewer and weaker hurricanes and tornadoes, every one is now evidence of climate change.
  9. Your ignorance is not evidence of anything else, just your ignorance. No straw, no steel, no hair. Just ignorance.
  10. He might get a better deal going through the Hunter Biden Bonding Agency LLC.
  11. And frac baby, frac.
  12. This would not be doing it again. It’s not a loan for a project. It’s injecting yourself into a litigation, putting your head on the chopping block, in a matter that is being adjudicated on ideology alone, in an overwhelmingly ideological arena. You cannot honestly say that this process has been representative of historical American jurisprudence.
  13. Give the slow student a little time to respond, and then you can go.
  14. As you freely admit to being dishonest.
  15. It would have no effect unless and until it did widespread damage to the economy.
  16. You haven’t established that that’s what happened. And you can’t, because there’s no proof that anything would be different for the people of any country that the U.S. has interacted with. If the people were sold out, they were sold out by their own leaders, just like us. A very similar bill of goods was sold to Venezuelans by the socialist Hugo Chavez. He ejected all the American oil companies and soon after oil production diminished. It has never recovered. Here you can see what it was like before, and what it is like now. Something went wrong, can you tell what it was?
  17. Your ignorance is certainly not an insinuation, it’s fully established.
  18. Just ask yourself: why do the illegal aliens discard their passports and ID cards at the border, after carrying them all the way there?
  19. By your logic, raising taxes wouldn’t reduce the money supply, either.
  20. The reluctance to enter into this situation, even at fire sale rates, is evidence of the fear of being the next target.
  21. Hahaha. Did he ever say “socks on a rooster?”
  22. I can only guess that your economist is Robert Reich or someone similar. You’ve shown some figures to show how much money was injected into the economy, now show how much money was sucked out of the economy by the shutdowns.
  23. I think this might fit here:
  24. And the ocean is rising so fast that Obama couldn’t wait to invest in beach front Martha’s Vineyard and Magnum’s old house in Hawaii.
