"Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country," Noem said.

At least since they don't believe in trials we can skip straight to their hangings.

Like that is shit you learn in Junior High in social studies or whatever.

I don't know whether or not Noem knows what habeus is, but lying about it is just part of the strategy. They know that most persuadable voters are low info voters. Those voters may or may not hear about this, but if they do they'll hear what she said and have no reason to search out whether or not she's telling the truth. They almost certainly agree with the premise she said and will instead think that Dems or the media are crazy for opposing habeus.

It's Bannon and Flynn psych warfare crap and everyone in the admin is doing it.

Ironically, the scientists and doctors approved the new vaccine, but the admin overruled (or appointed people at the FDA to overrule) the vaccine and make it only available to those who are "at risk", which most doctors have very different criteria.

Kamala is considering running for Governor of California? Or is that just pundit speculation?

Another Dem dies in office. 3rd one this term. Giving the Republicans a bigger majority with a tight vote coming up. Remember they gave him the leadership position on Oversight over AOC and others.

The big beautiful bill is fascinating to watch. It feels like one of those last heists before everything crumbles. Bond markets hate it. Probably not going under 7% interest on mortgages for awhile. Massive increase to debt with nothing to show economically for it.

Kind of running out of things to cut that can be transferred to weatlhy people. Especially with the military budget increasing.

Another wild stat. The median home buyer in 2007 was born in 1968. The median home buyer in 2024 was born in 1968.

RM has been focusing on the wrong genocide. We've all missed it. Finally it's being addressed.

The thing with this bill is maga embraces it because they believe everything they are told. Fox is saying how great it is and it will cut the deficit etc. and they believe it.

They're going to get the rug pulled out from under them, especially when they see how the no taxes on tips stuff actually works, and then blame Biden.

So many sheep that support eveeything no matter how bad it is for them.

Its actually a benefit for us personally. We own our home and our cars with no plans to buy anything major soon. And the bill would increase our take home by 3k or so and more once i start working again. But even that minimal benefit is not worth the downsides of it at all.

Hundreds of billions being transferred to the wealthy and medicade getting cuts and MAGA is celebrating paying a little less at the pump and "no taxes on tips" that only applies to cash tips that they likely weren't reporting as income anyway.

The combination of social media, 24/7 partisan news and the realization that you can make many low information voters believe whatever you state the loudest and most often has pretty much broken everything.

In 3.5 years when the majority of the country is far worse off, they'll find new boogeymen to blame and whip up even more hatred and distrust. If not Trump, it will be somebody even further to the right and more populist.

I think the issue with anyone who benefits that isn't super wealthy is who in the world is buying your house? Pretty much narrowing down the buyer pool to private equity at this point and soon they'll be able to set their own market.

Reading up on the coming screw worm infestation. Looks very likely with the only question being how far north the fly gets. Buy your beef now and freeze it.
