You're Andre. I'm Serena. Correct!

Yes? I'm forming my opinions based on reporting. You're basing your opinions based on opinions.

Again I'm not saying you're wrong. Look at the information Snowden revealed. Before the reveal it was conspiracy theory. Now it's fact.

This reporting isn't fact, it's reporting in progress. At the moment it doesn't find the always listening allegation to be true, but not impossible either.

Honestly for big boy I hope so, but don't know. Assuming he loses this year, and assuming he survives until 2028, I would hope he'd be gone, but I can't be sure. I assume 2026 midterms will give us a rough idea.

It's not trusting Big Tech, it's understanding that Little Tech can also lie.

Cox Media Group wants to hype up their product and use AI buzzwords. To be seen as reliable they say that they work with Google, Amazon, Facebook, etc.

The report is basically CMG saying they can do X, and everyone else calling bullshit. (And in response CMG clarifying "No, we don't actually do that" and then also removing the companies they don't actually work with.)

It isn't definitively saying they don't, but also isn't saying that they do. You can assume the worst if you like, but that doesn't mean the worst is actually true.

Is it possible this type of spying exists? Yes. Is it possible this is a cover up? Yes. Do we have actual data to support that? No.

Tomorrow an investigation may reveal otherwise, but for now it doesn't seem to be the case.

Oh but he will. Trump will put all the blame on Vance. He threw him under the bus during the debate and he'll do it again.

Vance will try to be reasonable but forgets he isn't dealing with reasonable people. Eventually he'll turn on Trump as a way to cozy up to "normal" Republicans. He'll get a few TV appearances and then disappear.

When 2028 comes around he might try to run in the primary but he'll get stomped on and be one of the first to drop out.

He's in the Senate now and that's where he'll stay. Maybe he'll get reelected, but I doubt he'll be around much longer than that.

Correct!

And she did, correct.

This looks messy, but I said the same about the first trailer and that movie turned out ok.

Also, will we get an odd MCU tie-in? Secret Was setup?

#2 because it allows you to later give them a mustache (#1), which is funny but the toaster isn't amused.

That's because he really does believe it. If you listen to him say he heard it on TV it is the most genuine statement he has ever made. It's like a child telling you exactly what they saw on TV.

If you're looking for someone to sue it would have to be the "sources" Trump heard the information from. Unfortunately I'm confident those people understand the ruse. They know to say allegedly. They know how to utilize weasel words.

Because people like to connect with other people and share anecdotes about their own life. That's human nature.

A man can say he spent the weekend with his husband camping in the woods and how it reminds them of a poem.

A woman can say her wife is picking her up after work and they're going to a bookstore to pickup the newest book in a series.

These are innocuous statements and yet some states/people would vilify them.

I'm voting FOR Harris in the same way I was previously voting FOR Biden. Biden/Harris & Harris/Walz support policies that most closely match those policies I support.

If Trump died tomorrow I still wouldn't support Vance or any other Republican because they support policies that I am strongly opposed to.

I would like to have more options, but realistically those are my choices.

I don't have to agree with Harris/Walz on 100% if issues. I'm allowed to criticize them. But at the end of the day I'm voting FOR something and not just against the worst possible choice.
