Another troll post by silence. Drop in on a website or message board with a snide comment, statement or question, and then retreat never to return and engage accordingly. That’s a classic troll move.

And yet we have “conservatives” on the board who complain that they are always getting called out as “trolls”. Go figure.

yup. its textbook trolling and its also nonsensical - republicans control every branch of the government. every. thing. is on them right now.

there's only so much mileage you can get out of the biden health scandal.

4 months in and this admin has not just our economy but perhaps the global economy on the precipice, our international reputation is in tatters amongst the free, democratic world and they're picking earth shattering fights domestically with numerous important government agencies and the education system, judiciary and essentially any state that isn't deep red.
 
I can't believe they are resurrecting Star Wars. It's obviously all about the corruption, but still.

Hey MAGA: You know how Doge found like $3B of cuts? Trump is going to put $25B in the hands of Musk next year for the "Golden Dome." They think you are fucking idiots. They think they can distract you with shiny objects and pick your pockets.

The price tag estimate on the Golden Dome is at least $500B. At least. In all likelihood, it's well over $1T. It also requires Canadian cooperation, which will not be forthcoming under Trump, I would imagine. This is the public policy equivalent of the Cybertruck: it's incredibly stupid, overpriced, does nothing, and will cost us an incredible amount of money.

I mean, the fucking Planetarium in Huntsville is named after him.

That said, the faux ignorance is a feature, not a bug.

World Scientists Look Elsewhere as U.S. Labs Stagger Under Trump Cuts​

With the welcome mat withdrawn for promising researchers from around the world, America is at risk of losing its longstanding pre-eminence in the sciences.


“… As the Trump administration moves with abandon to deny visas, expel foreign students and slash spending on research, scientists in the United States are becoming increasingly alarmed. The global supremacy that the United States has long enjoyed in health, biology, the physical sciences and other fields, they warn, may be coming to an end.

“If things continue as they are, American science is ruined,” said David W. Hogg, a professor of physics and data science at New York University who works closely with astronomers and other experts around the world. “If it becomes impossible to work with non-U.S. scientists,” he said, “it would basically render the kinds of research that I do impossible.”

… . At Johns Hopkins University, a bastion of scientific research, officials announced the layoffs of more than 2,000 people after losing $800 million in government grants. An analysis by The New York Timesfound that the National Science Foundation, the world’s pre-eminent funding agency in the physical sciences, has been issuing financing for new grants at its slowest rate since at least 1990….”

We had a UNC student president candidate back in my day who ran with his dog Sarge on a platform that included building a dome over the campus so students would not have to go to class in the rain.

Either that or ere’body is doing a great job of ignoring his trolling.

I mean come on, the idiot is poasting links to Stephen “Nazi” Miller? Hahaha.
