There is no way this was an accident like they’re claiming. It’s deliberate pandering to the white-nationalist, neo-nazi crowd.
The whole “oops we didn’t notice that” is just a “wink-wink, nudge-nudge.” Nobody “accidentally” includes the third reich in a political ad. No-one. Zilch.
Would be fucking hilarious if they're running their own shit AI that was just pulling its data from the TS platform and it created this ad. Considering we know what their userbase is like over there
It’s insane how Trump manages to get away with everything. Even before he became president, he somehow got away with destroying and bankrupting everything he touched while also managing to fail upwards.
Lol. It’s actually gotten to the point where I almost wouldn’t be surprised if there were some sort of demonic influence giving him some evil villain plot armor.
I love whoever decided to drown out Sunak's speech (which was inexplicably done outdoors, on a rainy day) with 'Things Can Only Get Better' on loudspeakers from nearby.
I wonder if it was the same person who played the Benny Hill theme over Boris Johnson's resignation.
He's betting he won't lose votes on the left because the left will vote against Trump. He's playing chicken with the end of civilization, and we're all in the car with him.
He could potentially win Michigan based on this, so you’re probably right in that they did some polls and found this to be a domestically “good” move.
The auto industry is huge in Detroit. If Biden didn’t do this, I could imagine a situation where these budget-friendly Chinese vehicles actually scare the Big Three Auto Companies and the UAW into backing Trump, which would be a disaster.
I believe a defense for the tariffs is that the Chinese government is heavily subsidizing them, but I do not know how true that is.
But the new ruling from U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon vacates that date and sets a new slate of pretrial proceedings, the latest of which is a hearing set for July 22.
Um... July 22nd isn't "indefinitely". Either I'm confused or the headline contradicts the actual article.
Obligatory NAL, but it reads as “pretrial proceedings,” which are hearings held prior to trial to determine things like laws pertaining to the crime, the facts, and other issues.
It sounds (to me) like that’s exactly what they have been doing since Cannon was originally appointed as the judge in this case.
What she did was cancel the trial start date, May 20th, and then set a date to resume “pretrial proceedings.”
Thanks for the clarification. Yeah, that really shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. What will surprise me is if he ever actually faces any consequences. Anyone who is still expecting any real justice for trump has not been paying attention.
Among the dead was Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian, 60. The helicopter also carried the governor of Iran’s East Azerbaijan province, a senior cleric from Tabriz, three crew members and a Revolutionary Guard official, the state-run IRNA news agency reported. IRNA said the crash killed eight people in all, including three crew members, aboard the Bell helicopter, which Iran purchased in the early 2000s.
The crash took place in a mountainous area under heavy fog.
I would guess this doesn’t actually lead to regime change in Iran, because the countries Supreme Leader, Ayatollah (85) was not aboard the craft.
The president isn't unimportant though. A sad fact about Iranian politics is that the two times they elected a reformist president - Khatami in 1997 and Rouhani in 2013 - it was followed by the election of a Republican president in the US who spat in the face of attempted conciliation.
Bush grouping Shia Iran into his 'axis of evil' and trying to link them with Sunni Al-Qaeda, and then Trump's binning of Obama's carefully negotiated nuclear agreement, has done an enormous amount to undermine the reformists as ineffective and to strengthen the hardliners around Khamanei. It doesn't get talked about enough: there's a weird sort of codependency going on between Khamanei's crew and the US Republicans.
Both Khamanei and US Evangelicals campaign on how terrible the other is and then act in a way that validates the other’s worst tendencies, making a cordial relationship between the two countries nearly impossible.
