For any dumb ass veteran that voted for this prick or is thinking about it. Forget the draft dodging, a lot of politicians dodge the draft. Trump doesn't have any respect for you and he doesn't appreciate your service. What you did for him.

The bounty of our soldiers heads in the Middle East? Trump lied about it. Fake news he called it.

It took about six weeks before a journo asked about it in a WH presser.

"Don't go to college if you cannot afford it."

If you hypothetically wanted to be a janitor. The respectable person who often ends up, cleaning up after grown adults who don't know how to be adults and leave messes everywhere... You'd still would need a bachelors degree!

Do I think that is a realistic requirement for cleaning up hallways and bathrooms? No, but good luck finding any job in 2023 not requiring you to have a degree.

So when someone says college is "optional" they're out of touch.

Wasn't that something Bernie Sanders ran on? At least for community colleges. I can see an argument for private ones still charging. But come on.

Same can be said for health care in the US. If you break it down, I don't see how it's all that different from a ponzie scheme.

@Terminhell @Linux Is Best Biden ran on free community college, but then Manchin and Sinema refused to end the filibuster ensuring Biden could do nothing on that front.

We have brought back o major megafauna, but no one remembers. Horses originated in north America, but spread out along the Beringia, and then died out in North America most likely human hunting. Had the Natives had horses and Mastodons as transport animals instead of killing them off for food, they might have invaded Europe. The horse is a missing American Megafauna that was returned to it. Why wild broncos in the west should be protected.

In the late 1400s, Spanish conquistadors brought European horses to North America, back to where they evolved long ago.

Apparently "right to repair" among urban liberals consider it mostly a rural problem so put less effort in it. We need to fix that because it could bring some of those rural states we sorely need because of the senate's screwed up makeup that 17% of Americans control half the senate. Also right to repair is essential for #solarpunk as much as urbanism is. It has 70% bipartisan approval among voters. this is something that can bring both sides together is we work at it.

@EverydayMoggie Usually if the animals die in an experiment, it is the end of that experiment (or it is at least significantly delayed).

Musk is just rushing through the process.

@Darnell Clayton :verified: @moggie Musk did while killing and torturing monkeys what scientists were able to do 20 years prior without killing or torturing them.

John Deer makes 5 times as much money maintaining the sole monopoly over repairing tractors than it makes building and selling actual tractors. #capitalism
Sometimes they make special parts that require special tools that only licensed mechanics with "special training" can fix. If capitalism were that great, why hold us hostage? My favorite ice cream place hasn't had ice cream in a year because only a licensed mechanic can fix their machine. SMH.
