Production in the United States resulted in approximately 2.4 times higher costs. Tariffs will fix that, right, right?

I'd imagine so. Offering them money won't change that and is boorish. Not that that's a surprise.

Skilled comedian, obviously juggling well within his limits. I've seen him do his motorbike juggle, classic clowning

Very nice.

It could certainly reduce routine PCP visits.

Yeah, the mullahs are great guys who only want peace (as long as we all convert).

That lady was quite frisky.

I guess it gives you what it thinks you can absorb.

@Doctor-Phibes said in ICE kills a US citizen in Minneapolis: @Horace said in ICE kills a US citizen in Minneapolis: @Doctor-Phibes said in ICE kills a US citizen in Minneapolis: @Horace said in ICE kills a US citizen in Minneapolis: I don't know how meddlesome they can be. I've read that they have taken control of the video evidence, but the shooter himself released the primary video to the public. There's a hypothetical scenario where there is video not seen by the public, nor MN state officials, which is being held by the FBI, and that video would be helpful for any legal case against the shooter. That's just a hypothetical. I'm not aware of any reports that there is juicy video the public hasn't already seen. What the public has already seen sure does seem to be enough to build a case with, according to many, so maybe we'll see it. And then if convicted Trump can pardon him. Presidential pardons don't work for state level crimes. Right, and the US can't declare war on a country without a vote by Congress. Yes, that's true too. Loopholes around military action without declaring war, take that up with most presidents.

@jon-nyc said in From my sister who works at the sheriffs office: My sister was a dispatcher aged 24 when 'The Gainesville Ripper' serial killer hacked up five co-eds about her age. The movie 'Scream' is based on him. That freaked her out. She had details that no one sane wants to hear. Some day, if she's still willing to talk, I will be willing to listen.

lol

TARS told me earlier that SCOTUS has been reluctant to address such a topic.

We won after all!

Dalek poetry might be interesting.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent reportedly informed Trump on Sunday that the investigation “made a mess” and risked destabilizing financial markets. A source told Axios, “The secretary isn’t happy, and he let the president know.” Former economic government officials—including three former Federal Reserve chairs, four former treasury secretaries, and former Republican Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas—signed a statement describing the reported criminal investigation into Powell as an “unprecedented attempt to use prosecutorial attacks to undermine [the Federal Reserve’s] independence.”
