Easy, he committed fraud by blowing up the renovation budget.

Could you point me to the East Wing of the White House please?

Logic does not matter to alt-right.

And that happened even after they arrested him and tried to put him in jail. What's happening now might be shocking but not unexpected at all.

>tried to put him in jail

They really didn't. It was a dog and pony show under the belief that he would not make his way back into power. The dems/reps did not want to set a precedent of holding a president to account for doing terribly illegal things. They didn't intend to actually do anything to prevent this.

And so here we are.


I'm not sure I entirely agree with that. I wonder if the Democrats didn't delay prosecution until late 2023/early 2024 in order to have it be a headwind against Trump running again.

If so, they have been well-paid for that bit of "strategy". Trump was able to delay the cases long enough that the election came first, and now he has immunity at least while in office.

I think they didn't realize the moment the country was in. They put a judge in charge of the justice department when we needed a bull-dog prosecutor. It was a bad choice.


He's done planning, it's in execution stage now. Speaking from my experience of living unelected/farcically elected governments for ~20 years.

If "cesspool" was a social media it would look like 2026 twitter.

Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Afghanistan in recent history have executed men explicitly for morality law violations such as adultery, sodomy, and apostasy.

Willing to bet that X premium signups have shot up because of this feature. Currently this is the most convenient tool to generate porn of anything and everything.

My work laptop used to be Thinkpad P1 before they enfored Dell hardware. The current win11 laptop needs to be replaced for stability issues, and I begrudgingly going to ask for a MacBook.

I can't help but feel that 10% "smart" users have failed the rest of the 90% users.

10% is approximate casual Linux user base

I'm really interested to see what happens during the world cup. Won't be surprised if somehow it may end up even bigger of a scandal than Qatar'22. Even if we set immigration and politics aside, heat it going to be an even bigger issue than everyone is anticipating.


I bought a not too expensive TCL qm6k with game master mode. Whenever it detects Xbox series S input, it turns on the mode by default. On menu it stays at 1440p but when I start a game, it switches to 4k 120hz- and the input lag becomes horrible!

Turns out it does not even care if I set lower resolution in Xbox display settings. So I had to just disable game master mode. And I don't miss anything.
