My inner cynic is coming to the surface on this one. I would rather the GOP control all 3 branches so it doesn't give them an excuse that the "other side" is holding back progress or some other bullshit. Yes it would mean unchecked power, but it might be the only way to open people's eyes.....I can't even finish that because I doubt even that would happen.

"We investigated ourselves and found nothing wrong."

Being a vet myself I would HOPE that most commanders especially the Joint Chiefs would say no to that level of absurdity and bullshit. If it came down to it yes he could relieve commanders till he found someone to follow his orders, but if that happened I would almost assume a coup would take place because the CIC is trying to subvert the Constitution and every Service Member is charged with upholding said document.

Now getting a 3 letter agency to do it...is another matter entirely, but again any federal employee is sworn to uphold the Constitution and not the man. I just feel those 3 letters can be swayed a little bit easier.

I pay my portion of my health coverage at a little under 20% of my paycheck for a family plan. That is technically half since my employer pays a portion as well. If taxes would be raised to that point or even less than what I am paying now I would not care in the slightest. Hell I would welcome it. If it is more I would be a little more upset but if I do t have to pay co pays or the other crap a medical bill generates like the portion my health coverage doesn't pay than in my eyes it again balances out.

Putting a little Hauk Tuah on that 50.

If they float, it typically means the person is consuming too much fat in their diet. Not always but moat times.

Yeah I am betting it will be 75 for me and I am only 43 now.

How are they influenced, and they aren't used being used for publicity from what I can tell from the article. One of the first posts here does a pretty good summary of the article that it centers more around the outrage than actually the after-school program itself.

I think they were just side stepping since they paused the lower courts ruling and then when they found out she left the state they dismissed their ruling as moot and then just went and overturned the lower courts. Pretty fucking spineless but they can still throw a supposed W and make themselves out to upholding values or some other BS talking point.

The only thing that would be the icing on the cake would all of these "Christians" would still be firmly on planet earth while everyone of the LGBTQ Alphabet would ascend. I know I am being hyperbolic but people can understand what I am getting at.

No this meme is just that old.

That is not exactly true. While it is true that the military brought Starlinks over to Poland and Musk gave 1500 units to Ukraine as well. There was a lot of back and forth because technically you are not supposed to use a commercial product for actual military operations. For everday activities it was fine but when Ukraine started sending drone feeds over the systems and supplied those feeds to the US Forces, it sort of crossed a line and they had to start negotiating the terms in the contracts as well as scaling back the usage. So all along Musk has been walking a fine line with being complicit with his tech being used for war and trying to avoid it.

Let me clarify I am not a Musk apologist, I am just adding some context. I still do not like that he can seemingly over reach like this, but if the terms were not in place and negotiating was not done he is within his rights.
