I could actually go along with this so long as it is understood that it will be his children exposed to whatever he decides is the maximum ā€œsafeā€ level of inhaled microparticles. Of course, the fact of the matter is that it will be disadvantaged kids breathing this shit so the companies can make a little more profit, and I get to intubate a few more children, so, no biggie right?

This is interesting (other than the inherent discriminatory application and inhumane brutality of capital punishment generally) in that the USSC seems to be saying simultaneously that discriminating against non-Christians is unacceptable, but that discrimination against Muslims is just fine. Stupidest possible timeline strikes again!

You know… I’ve been wondering… the CERN Hadron Collider went live in Sept. of 2008… is that the beginning of the stupid timeline? :thinking:

I got a mailer this week from Melania Trump asking for upwards of $5000. Printed using my name.

Wonder what database they bought?

That’s literally the exact opposite of what needs to happen… It’s almost like they don’t WANT to fix the problem of immigration for some reason, but that can’t be right! He RAN on fixing immigration issues! :thinking:

That’s a win-win in trumpland.

ā€œLet’s fix the problem of immigration from central America… by making things even shittier there!ā€ doesn’t seem like a winning strategy, but I guess this is because we tend to think of ā€œwinningā€ in a sense of uplifting others, versus simply trying to chalk up political ammunition to benefit yourself.
