More lies. There were no DV charges filed against him. He was not stopped for trafficking. He was rounded up in a Home Depot parking lot.

Keep in mind, though, that the UK's hate speech law is an affront to civilization. As is the Germans' prohibition on Nazism. Terrible violations of human rights. Torture and confinement -- eh.

It ain't your money, dumbass. They raised the money themselves. I'm quite certain their donors are pleased at the results.

But that's what I'm saying. It's very likely not quite +34 any more, but it's entirely possible for kids who couldn't vote in 2004 to be radically pro-Obama in 2008. If your political consciousness began in 2004, what the fuck would attract you to the GOP? And they have probably maintained...

But why is there even an argument? If this was just about the scope of injunctions, it could be resolved in orderly course. There's no reason SCOTUS even has to humor the president. The relief being asked for is supposedly "extraordinary." So why not let the order stand? That they are...

They are wildly fluctuating in value because of complete uncertainty as to what is happening with US economic policy. The problem with debt is that the upside is limited but the downside isn't really. While the treasury isn't going to go bankrupt, there are major concerns about fiscal...

Maybe, although I'm not sure 2024 can be treated as part of a trend. The way political allegiance typically works, from what I've read, is that early preferences are persistent. Once a Dem, always a Dem (to a first approximation). So those Obama +34 voters in 2008 are probably still pretty...

Yeah, firing Powell would cause a bloodbath in the markets. Probably 08 levels of malfunction, though in different ways. Trump the dumbass doesn't realize what he's asking for. Lowering rates = inflation. Trump, a chronic debtor, can't think of interest rates other than "low = good"

The fact that the 30-44 swung less to Trump than 18-29 or 45-64 is evidence for my point, albeit indirectly. If my theory is right and there is a cluster of Obama-raised voters who are extremely liberal, then some of them aged out of 18-29 -- and aged into 30-44. So they were replaced by...

Well, when was this shooting? Maybe they haven't gotten around to talking with her. I'm not predicting she's dead; I'm just saying that there might be more to the story than we know right now. Too early to lambaste the mom, I think, not that it really matters what is posted here.

Have we seen the mom yet? Sometimes the kids kill them first. Or beat them up. It might not have been up to her

But that wouldn't explain the recent emergence. To my knowledge, there hasn't been a split like this in a while. Which could be a point in your favor. It could also suggest that something about this specific moment (as others mentioned, pandemic and algorithm) is creating this effect. What...

From the end: "We yet cling to the hope that it is not naïve to believe our good brethren in the Executive Branch perceive the rule of law as vital to the American ethos. This case presents their unique chance to vindicate that value and to summon the best that is within us while there is still...

Well, to El Salvador's prison at least.

Could be politically more conservative if not overall more conservative. But these micro-shifts are not uncommon. People born in 1958 were way, way more likely to be GOPers than people born in 1953.
