They want us to spend money here until California burns off the map. Then they want to blame DEI and place contingencies on federal funds.

But what most of these mouth breathers don't realize is that California pays more federal taxes than any other state. And without California supplementing the stupid red state they live in/represent they'd be in far worse shape than they already are.

Republicans are going to do pretty much what they damned well want to do - they don't care about polls like these. And it continues to be laughable at all of the Trump voters who are essentially saying, over and over and over, "well, I voted for him to make some changes, but I just hope he doesn't go overboard and actually implement a lot of the stuff that he said he will, or that Project 2025 wants." Some people have to find things out the hard way.

I suppose, but some of those numbers are fucking ALARMING, imo. You’re telling me more than 40% of this country favors military invasion of Panama? Fuck off jingoists.

At this point I think 40% of Americans would probably be in favor of literally executing all transgenders or launching a nuclear attack on Iran if they thought they could get away with it and if it wouldn't affect them or their families personally. Their adored leader wondered aloud in his first term why we couldn't just nuke hurricanes before they hit land. It's a reflection of where we are as a society. The moment some of these policies starts to hurt them personally they'll turn against them on a dime, although they'll likely never admit they made a mistake or that Republicans are to blame for it.

I think probably 30-40% of the country is neck deep in the right wing disinformation swamp so, while alarming, I don't find those numbers surprising. MAGAs support anything Trump wants to do, especially actions that they view as displaying dominance over others, whether that be weaker nations, marginalized communities, or perceived political enemies. They live vicariously through and relish Trump's disrespect and humiliation of others. The cruelty is the point.
 

President Trump Promotes Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier to Under Secretary of the Air Force After He Was Fired in 2021 for Making Anti-Marxist Comments in Podcast in 2021​


IMG_4609.jpeg
“… Lohmeier came to public prominence in 2021, when he self-published a book alleging that Marxist ideology had become widespread in the military. In the book and a subsequent podcast appearance, he criticized the Pentagon’s diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and claimed conservative viewpoints were being silenced among senior leaders.

Then-Lt. Gen. Stephen N. Whiting removed Lohmeier from his post as commander of 11th Space Warning Squadron, over a loss of confidence in his ability to lead. A spokesperson said at the time that the decision was based on his podcast comments. Whiting is now the four-star commander of U.S. Space Command, one of the U.S. military’s 11 combatant commands.

Shortly after being fired, Lohmeier separated from the military. Since, he briefly hosted his own podcast and became a regular guest on others, keeping up his criticism of the military’s leadership. …”

I know this might be shocking, but Elon quoted something that doesn't actually represent the law. The DOL staffer who told the political appointee that the regulation couldn't be passed as a DFR was probably correct -- there are limits on what DFRs can and can't do. And anyway, the regulation referred to in that piece was only an internal guideline and was not subject to the APA, or at least not all of the provisions of the APA (agencies are given more latitude to modify internal policies and informal rules).
