Welcome to the Mafia Presidency | That’s a nice business you’ve got there.

They're preparing for a fight with the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal while a grizzly bear is growling at them.
He has, however, read a collection of Hitler's speeches:
Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler's collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade. Hitler's speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist.
"Did your cousin John give you the Hitler speeches?" I asked Trump.
Trump hesitated. "Who told you that?"
"I don't remember," I said.
"Actually, it was my friend Marty Davis from Paramount who gave me a copy of Mein Kampf, and he's a Jew." ("I did give him a book about Hitler," Marty Davis said. "But it was My New Order, Hitler's speeches, not Mein Kampf. I thought he would find it interesting. I am his friend, but I'm not Jewish.")
Later, Trump returned to this subject. "If I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them."
He's been spewing antisemitism like this since at least 2015. (I didn't pay much attention to him before then)
It's not just ignorance when it's pointed out repeatedly over the years and you keep doing it.
They're also emitting a lot of unburned natural gas, there are plans to install a lot more turbines, and it's much easier to fight something new and illegally installed than something that's been around a while. Plus, it's the NAACP fighting it, which makes sense, because the turbines are being used to power a chatbot that's tuned to be racist.
Ideally, we want to get rid of all fossil fuels, but any little place a victory is possible is a good thing.
Happens every day already. Just not organized
Of Americans who have a clue about it. Problem is that lot didn't hear before it passed
They tried. Problem is that most of the press is billionaire-owned and they're literally settling frivolous lawsuits Trump has filed in order to bribe him.
I'd try a device reboot. It works fine on windows, Mac, and android
The youre doing something a bit unusual:
- turned off Javascritpt
- running a browser extension which strips off the access token from the URL
- desperately needing a reboot, causing Javascript to break
Its a gift link, so already no paywall
No, but its better to understand what happened instead of some fiction being pushed by local officials.
When you do frequent midnight alerts for missing elderly, people disable the alerts on their phone entirely. Then when disaster hits, they don't know its coming. And because no planning was done for it, they can't evacuate a camp full of kids quickly enough even if they know what's about to happen.
Actually preventing this kind of thing means maintaining preparedness for decades when nothing happens.
