Bold strategy. We had to kill them without a trial, because otherwise we couldn't kill them. You know there is a word for killing someone without justifiable cause. Murder. That's what they are admitting to.

It's called a Kavanaugh stop, and it was made legal by Kavanaugh... Unfortunately.

You're right, if we had just ran the peoples choice of Sanders in 2016 he would have won just like Mamdani did. Glad you made exactly the right comparison

No. He is awful. Votes for most of Trump's appointments, would have voted for the CR but let his buddy take the fall instead. As a former Virginian, I really hope my state will primary the shit out of him. He needs to go and has failed to meet the moment.

No one deserves it... But with a 50 point spread for Trump, they definitely asked for it... And then even the recent election at 40 point spread, clearly are fine with how things are going.

Pelosi has 40 years in office, currently worth 278M, assuming all was made during her time in office that's ~6.95M/yr

Using the same assumption MTG has netted 5M/yr. This isn't a vast difference.

Corruption is corruption

Respectfully, people are boycotting the Kennedy Center over Trump's takeover. Maybe the union should also participate in a boycott and go on strike? Because I can't see people increasing their attendance as long as the program and schedule is controlled by Trump.

I know there are many, but you forgot the best one! Literally the origin of "left is best" that has been adopted as a joke/meme by the left because of its absurdity.

Unrelated to the discussion, but by far the best quote from hbomberguy:

Eh, it's been sold to so many countries at this point, I'm not sure it matters. Also, China already has a knock-off version of likely stolen F-35 blueprints.

I'd be more worried if it was the F-22

Sure, if you are buying the cheapest clothes because you can't afford food and rent and everything else, then I don't think any of this is actually applying to you. Shein isn't pulling in 32B in revenue from just poor people. It's the people who could actually afford better that's propping them up

All evidence would suggest otherwise. They are making the conditions in these places absolute hell and then saying "it can all go away if you stop fighting and sign these papers that will deport you tomorrow". If they wanted to hold them forever, they wouldn't give them an "easy out"

Seems like given the timeline, then some of the people he is having arrested still probably have spent more of their lives in the US than he has.

But thanks for the extra information.

It's been law since 1866 that no living person is allowed on our currency. And while this has been violated many times in the past, the most prevalent was Coolidge and 150 year coin. Americans hated it so much they melted most of them down cause they couldn't sell em.

The only thing innacurate about this is Trump asking permission.

US, Canada, Brazil, Russia, China, South Africa... etc all pay above average (for their country) wages related to mining, and those were what I could find relatively quickly. The "modern slavery" piece was explicitly about the DRC... but that's also about Cobalt (which isn't "rare earth")
November 7, 2025 at 6:12 PM
I followed up further with the reference to China, since you were also claiming I was running into spotlight fallacy... And in the event you want to go further than that, the issue with "modern slavery" in mining is more specifically limited to a handful of specific examples, not all countries.
November 7, 2025 at 6:12 PM
In another comment, I randomly picked a mine in the US to call out that mining is decently paid work. You suggested that equating all mining with "rare earths" was strawmaning, so I specifically targeted a mine that was a US based "rare earths" mine, which is the one in CA.
November 7, 2025 at 6:12 PM
China is actually improving in basically all aspects of environmental regulations, and at a faster pace than most nations. And China has actually paid miners above average wages compared to other industries since at least the 70s. (Can't believe you are making me carry water for China...)
November 6, 2025 at 10:12 PM
I didn't give you a hypothetical mine, I gave you a real existing mine that is currently producing "rare earth" metals. You seem to think the only way to pull them is via slave labor and/or US pressure. CA is overly environmentally conscious, and has strong labor laws. It shouldn't exist apparently.
November 6, 2025 at 10:12 PM
we shouldn't need: if targeting renewables
we will stop: if we stop using oil so heavily
Energy is the target... shifting to a more abundant energy source would eliminate it as a target for control.

Yes, war over resources have existed and still exist.

For the record MP Materials pays people between 26$/hr to 40$/hr. Mountain Pass, CA is right around the median cost of living in the US. So 26$/hr is hardly poverty wages.
November 5, 2025 at 8:53 PM
The graphic example alludes to bombing... Either way, "show them who's boss" - my China point stands... we haven't done this at all.

And excuse me... replace the NC mine with the Mountain Pass Mine in CA. If you want a different one that specifically targets rare earths. Point extra stands
