    @Klaus said in Tariffs for TokTok: I believe the main reason why Trump loves tariffs so much is that they give him endless opportunities to reward or punish the people/companies/countries he is dealing with. I think Trump has really bought into some of the economic policies of McKinley and the overall lack of inflation in the 19th century. Would not surprise me to see a $1 coin issued that contained a small amount of silver.

    @Axtremus said in The forgotten nuclear incident.....: Don't know about you, I rarely associate the U.K. with nuclear power or nuclear weapons, even though I know that the U.K. is a nuclear power. There was plenty of nuclear activity when I was growing up. Both the UK Atomic Energy Authority and British Nuclear Fuels were major employers in the area. They reduced activity in the mid-90's, so only about 15% of the power is nuclear nowadays. Also, CND is a British organization. You might not have heard of them (really?), but I bet you know their symbol... [image: 1743074447723-5ef82ab0-58b5-4d2f-89cf-199c689b0ff8-image.png]

    If you're a Transylvanian transvestite slapping teenage girl's asses in the soccer locker room, while your weiner rotates at attention, reasonable takes on a different meaning.

    Also I remember when they had to widen the highway to Amarillo, TX to accommodate all the GOP AGs driving to get their nationwide injunction requests in front of Judge Kaczmarczyk.

    They need to make a concerted effort to be politically fair. If a concert or play has public funding, it should be fodder for public tv or radio. Affiliates should be better at sharing programming, especially in radio. Nashville could probably generate multiple programs as could NYC and LA. Public radio and TV should be the official EBS. For radio, issue some new AM 50K Clear Channel licenses.

    I really do not understand why it’s so difficult to remove them. They have no legal right to be there and they’ve done damage.

    But it’s a reminder that this did happen on Pete’s watch. Maybe he was paying too much attention to keeping airplanes safe.
