And remember that any ballroom costs will be doubled in a few years. Do you think that the next President will want to wake up to that eye sore for 4 years?

Does anyone know how the pre-Trump ICE agents feel about the Trump (2) era hires?

It’s weird thinking about this because before the current ICE generation were considered the Gestapo, those old-school agents were.

And the second time around was because Trump… tried to kill them. I don’t respect the suicidally greedy.

Reminder: immigration violations are misdemeanors or civil actions

Can’t the President make changes to the White House, including revising/removing previous Presidents’ changes? What’s legally problematic this time (besides scale and lack of taste)?

But… aren’t pretty much any of today’s countries that could be the analog of WW2-era USA on Trump’s side?

Related: it shouldn't be a surprise that a whole party made out of Failsons and Nepobabies has decided Liberalism is Bad and we should establish Medieval Nepotism as our core governing principle.

All the Republicans since then, including Trump, have been following that plan.

Yes, many of these elements existed before Reagan, like the post-Civil War revenge and the businesses that didn’t like FDR. But Reagan is when they got their jaws clamped on our throats.

Not sure on the last one for Trump. Not that it matters; this isn’t a Trump coup 12 years in the making, but a Reagan coup 45 years in the making. I guess Reagan fits more.

I haven’t actually put them in Xcode to see what happens yet.

Looking up what this “vibe coding” is. Found an example video at

Tried some sample ideas that I had in my head for years. Holy crap.

Now I’m feeling old. And dirty. (Lapsed computer expert since the late 20th century.)

Since the tariff maker can’t stop the payer from just passing on the extra cost to the consumers, it effectively becomes an indirect tax.

It’s not easy since Team Red Elephant has no problem with homicidal counters. (It was easy for Mitch to kick Obama in the nuts every week because of this, even as senate minority leader.) Schumer et al will have to stick their necks out.

If “vaccines cause autism,” then are already-autistic kids free to take the shots, or is “double autism” supposedly a thing?

And being autistic is worse than being dead?

Is there a blue-axis equivalent to CPAC? Or the Project 2025 stuff?

Why is this guy (Trump) anyone’s hero? Being President is supposed to be as boring as being a bus driver.

ctmacuser.bsky.social @ctmacuser.bsky.social · Feb 26

I think he was there once. But he was heavily restrained (most of the time) at least.

Is there an anti-Project 2025? Like, a Project 2029 or something?

No. But the way you responded to people mentioning MT’s liver issues made me wonder.

…

Hmm, besides cancer, excessive drinking can lead to liver issues. I don’t know if MT had a drinking problem, let alone if her experiences with JW kicked it off.

JW gives people liver cancer?!?

That would give Netanyahu nightmares.

Maybe someone could make a wake-up brain meme comic about that.
