They’re not at odds. Trump chickened out and now he wants to have a rally on Fox instead of the debate he previously agreed to.

Just pack the goddamn court. There’s ONE conservative justice on the Supreme Court who was appointed by a president who came to power having received more votes than his opponent, and that’s Clarence Thomas, the man whose loyalties can be bought with a luxury vacation and whose wife aided and abetted insurrectionist traitors.
The ENTIRE conservative wing of the Supreme Court is illegitimate. Every single one of them. And you know what? Thanks to the GOP, it only takes 50 votes to approve a supreme court justice. It used to be sixty, but they changed the rules so they could more conveniently destroy America.

That’s . . . not what cute means.
What does it mean when the highest court in your ostensible democracy is this obviously compromised?
I mean morally it’s obvious. Their judgements are invalid. Useless. Feel free to ignore anything they say if you can get away with it. But unless we’re down for anarchy, what means do we have to deal with this? Legally the president can pack the court. So long as he can get the senate to go along. But he doesn’t seem to want to, and there are no viable alternatives to the president we have. Not yet, anyway.
So here we are. A ‘democracy’ with a supreme court that’s openly compromised, if not outright corrupt. Nobody’s running on a ‘maybe the supreme court shouldn’t be filled with 18th century ideologues and grifters’ platform. Nobody’s talking about upside down flags and RVs on the major networks.
So what do?
I imagine they’ll have backtracked on this decision long before then.
I kind of assumed it was based on one of those ‘how they photograph food’ articles that pops up every so often with shaving cream instead of whip cream and motor oil instead of pancake syrup. Pretty sure I’ve seen one where they mix glue in the pizza cheese to make it more stringy.
According to who? Did the NTSB clear this? Are they even allowed to clear this? If this thing fucks up and kills somebody, will the judge let the driver off the hook 'cuz the manufacturer told them everything’s cool?
I read that as ‘euthanized’ and I wasn’t even surprised.
Eminent domain the final mile and be done with it. These companies have no business holding our national infrastructure hostage.
What kind of world do we live in when a fundamentalist authoritarian lunatic can’t even successfully crowdfund his human trafficking operation?
I’ve experimented a bit with chatGPT, asking it to create some fairly simple code snippets to interact with a new API I was messing with, and it straight up confabulated methods for the API based on extant methods from similar APIs. It was all very convincing, but if there’s no way of knowing that it’s just making things up, it’s literally worse than useless.
I just can’t with this shit any more. For all intents and purposes, we have two parties in this country. One of them incites idiots to kill immigrants and gleefully admits doing so. The other party knows that immigrants are people. And somehow the headline ends up being … this slop.
Because Democrats are apparently not enthusiastic enough about immigrants? Or maybe just because the media is vile and only cares about the media. Either way, this is awful reporting. Equating Republicans with Democrats on immigration in any way is astoundingly dishonest and the article fails in every possible way to justify the headline.
