That’s the point where I’d politely ask them to come outside with me, then beat the shit out of them while repeating “Your body (punch), my choice (punch)” until I felt they got the point.

Oil and gas are the apple that will get us kicked out of Eden.

If this results in the Kroger Albertsons merger going through I’m going to be so pissed.

Aside from that, we have far too many monopolistic companies that need to be brought down a peg. This is going to be miserable.

Colorado had nothing to do with this. Harris won by well over 10% here. New Mexico too. Get us out of here, please!

Yes, my MAGA family members bought Trump’s line of “I don’t know who is involved in that”.

I actually think you’re wrong. Having MAGA family members, I tuink they are legitimately brainwashed. They are in a bubble where they don’t hear the bad about Trump. They only hear good things about him and ad things about his enemies. Some of what they hear is true, much of it is lies, all of it is intended to scare.

I think that, had these people heard the same things the rest of us did, at least some of them would be voting differently. Not all, but enough.

As an American who follows this stuff pretty closely, a national abortion ban will be opposed in the courts by the states, but it will very quickly get to the Supreme Court to assess the constitutionality of the ban. When congress passes a law, the president signs it, and the Supreme Court rules that the law is constitutional, that is basically the end of it. Our current court will absolutely uphold a national abortion ban.

I think that the only way we avoid a national abortion ban under a Trump presidency is if the House of Representatives refuses to pass the ban. There is a slim chance that would happen but it’s possible.

Honestly we need to get rid of the $1 bill generally but that’s a completely different post all together.

What do you replace them with? Coins have been tried and rejected by consumers a few times now.

I carry around PowerPoint presentations that contain huge loops of satellite data. I love my 1TB USB stick.

Not enough capslock

They currently live in the US. So, whether they properly answered your prompt seems to depend on your definition of “your country”.

The problem is that Republicans are being told that there is proof. That the fraud is rampant and everyone knows it. It’s just that “they” keep removing and hiding the information.

My mom seriously believes that there is mountains of proof and that she has seen it in the past, but can’t find it anymore because it has been deleted from the internet.

What’s GAD?

And the statewide margin was still a 14 point margin. Too much to overcome with 12 stolen ballots.

You’re right, it is. In 2020 not a single race in Mesa County was competitive. Likewise, none of the state-wide races were competitive enough to have their results changed even if everyone in Mesa County voted the same way.

You’re probably right but I don’t really get it. Mesa County is so red that Trump won by 28 points in 2020. What was this person trying to achieve? For that matter, what was Tina Peters was trying to achieve? I just don’t understand how either of them could have made a difference when, in 2020, Trump won by over 25K votes out of a total of 91K votes cast and 107K registered voters.

You’re probably right there. Looking up the onky quoted I’ve been able to find from Musk on the topic, I think he’s been careful not to incriminate himself directly. Either that or he’s been lucky in his phrasing…

… or imprisoned not more than 5 years …

That said, your point isn’t wrong. $10,000 is nothing in this context. Criminal fines should be in direct proportion to a person’s income. Also, statutes, when they mention monetary value, should peg that value to invlation, income, or some other metric that scales with time. We have SOOOOO many laws on the books that use ridiculous numbers by modern standards but were reasonable at the time they were enacted.

It’s so dumb that you’re getting downvoted for telling people the truth that they don’t want to hear. Of course you can’t just “prosecute the board”. Individually, they may or may not be complicit.

It does seem that Musk could be seen as obviously complicit, though, since he is the one out there making the pitch. DOJ should be able to go after him, criminally, if the activity continues, right?
