I am disgusted to live in a world where Joe Fucking Rogan is king-maker, and it's a legit political strategy to keep your opponent off his stupid podcast.

Thanks, I wasn't depressed enough, but that really did the trick!

Blatantly unconstitutional, and he knows it. But the point isn't to win on this issue, it's to move the Overton window a little more and to sow more chaos.

OK, that makes sense. Sadly, all of my family have been here for four generations or more. My wife has one slightly easier potential option: If her father claimed Irish citizenship and moved to Ireland, she could piggyback on his Irish citizenship and claim it for herself and our kids, and I'd be able to live there as her husband. But that's really a non-starter, since her father has health issues that preclude a big move like that.

Right now, we're focusing on Vancouver, B.C., because my oldest wants to go to college there, and it's not too far away from where we are now in the Pacific Northwest. If I can get my company to move me, that will make it a lot easier, as they have an office there and my job is 100% remote anyway. But until he finds out if he's accepted or not, we're in a frustrating hurry-up-and-wait mode.

Why is this weirdo so obsessed with the letter X?

Hey, I've been thinking about this for the last few days... How did you do it? How did you get out so fast? I've got a house, I've got pets, I've got roots here. Pulling up stakes is slow and time-consuming.

And do you have a work visa? Or are you a dual-citizen?

I'm more concerned about chown. If someone figures out how to chown the Constitution, we're fucked!

Jesus... This will directly and unequivocally shrink the economy. That money? It's paid to businesses for services. He just fucked our GDP.

And it's going to disproportionately affect red states, because those are the states that receive the most federal grants.

That's the point. These actions make perfect sense... if the felon works for Putin.

 

Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) proposed an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would allow President Trump to serve a third term in the White House so that the country “can sustain the bold leadership our nation so desperately needs.”

For the record, Trump is 78 years old. Assuming he survives and manages to stay in office, he would be 86 when we're finally rid of him.

 

I can't find any content from this user from which to access the famous three-dots menu to unban them, and the post that resulted in their ban is already long gone, so I can't do it from there.

Could an administrator please unban the user?

 

The end of an era in Eugene. :'(

 

WASHINGTON (AP) — The judge overseeing Donald Trump’s 2020 election interference case made public Friday a heavily redacted trove of documents that provide a small glimpse into the evidence prosecutors will present if the case ever goes to trial.

The nearly 1,900 pages of documents collected by special counsel Jack Smith’s team were initially filed under seal to help U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan decide what allegations can proceed to trial following the Supreme Court opinion in July that conferred broad immunity on former presidents for official acts they take in office.

That's gonna be some serious reading over the weekend.

I hate the fact that it's almost fall now, and we're seeing temperatures around 100 degrees fahrenheit and smoke from first fires. In September.

 

The Biden administration on Wednesday plans to accuse Russia of a sustained effort to influence the 2024 US elections by using Kremlin-run media and other online platforms to target US voters with disinformation, six sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

It’s expected the US will make a series of moves on Wednesday aimed at addressing the Kremlin’s efforts including the White House publicly condemning the actions and the Justice Department announcing law enforcement action targeting the covert Russian campaign, the sources said.

 

Just a heads up, there's a severe thunderstorm alert right now:
