Mayor Ras Baraka said he was "appalled" and "angry" and blasted ICE for also detaining U.S. citizens, including a veteran

DUI hire
Imagine the message to America's enemies that the Secretary of Defense - normally a position filled by overwhelming bipartisan consensus - has squeaked into his job with a Vance tie-breaker after repeated concerns about his character and lack of experience.

Its been fun kicking the TDS suckers sorry asses (figuratively) and outing the liars and virtue signalers (literally). Let this thread serve as a support group for Biden and Kamala supporters to commiserate over their huge loss. You will survive but are left with no pride in being an American. Not sure if I want to return to this circus of ass clowns any time soon. I leave you snowflakes with these two images to ponder. The defeated democrats and the current leader of the free world.

Whoa total body slam, he drops, wait, who is that on the left…
Kathy Griffin?
I really do hope you’re a good carpenter Marsh as you don’t have a chance of making it as a pundit…but who knows, you’re perfectly qualified for Secretary of Defense though the job is taken for now, I heard Hegseth is celebrating his razor thin confirmation by throwing a kegger.
Please google Kakistocracy, it’s been seen before and it never goes well.

Pundit? That would be a good job for a limp wrist-ed candy ass liberal.....not that there's anything wrong with that.
Thanks for your hopes for my professional skills....im in high demand...they wont let me retire.....it does separate the men from the boys which suits me well..

Yeah, nothing says leadership like white nationalist tattoos, zero meaningful qualifications, a history of alcoholism and a rap sheet of abuse against women. If Trumps real goal is to make our already lethal military stronger he seems to be fk#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g it up like it’s an overpriced steak.
As for Mayor Pete, the photo you shared is fake.
This isn’t a good look for you, hope you have the day off to recharge those batteries.

And this is where you’re 100% wrong.
Trump is inheriting a very strong economy, by far the strongest post-Covid of any nation on earth. Record stock markets, record unemployment, weaker adversaries and despite the increased cost of some consumables real wage growth continues to outpace inflation.
You say the working class has spoken but in reality it’s been totally duped into believing immigrants, LGBTQ etc… are the source of their problems which is nothing more than a giant smoke screen while the elite consolidate power and wealth. The Dems biggest mistake was not more effectively exposing this fraud being pushed on the American people in plain sight.
The goal is total control and obedience, it’s not a “could happen” it’s already occurring. Welcome to America.

Actually Buttigieg has far better qualifications than Hegseth.
Hegseth is proof that the current season of the Apprentice is based on Idiocracy and scares anybody that’s concerned with national security.
Meanwhile the FFOTRS got elected by 35 people/couples who donated $1.6 billion to Trump's campaign in 2024. Just SEVEN of them accounted for $1 billion.
It took a decade, but the country's billionaires finally figured out the full meaning of Citizen's United. And they're taking advantage.
And you’re convinced he has your best interests at heart.
He got your allegiance by making you feel like a victim.
Victimized so far by immigrants, women, GLBT, DEI hires, Californians, Christian Bishops, etc and all one has to do is read your posts.
After those can no longer be sold as a threat he’ll come up with a new villain, can’t be a hero without one.
Hopefully you didn’t put all your money in his meme coin.
As far as construction goes, I remember the 1970s when lumber prices soared and housing starts dropped, maybe you missed that.

Just wait until the tariffs on Canadian lumber kick in and all those illegal imigrants get rounded up and deported. I am sure the building industry will be thriving!!

You can’t say FFOTRS (First Felon of the red states) supporters have egg on their face, because they can’t afford them.

How much do you want to bet the Trump administration will order the department of labor to exclude his government terminations in their January jobs report?

Considering government health services are now prohibited to publicly release ANYTHING not cleared by the Trump admin I wouldn’t trust a single number put out by any government agency,
Seriously, avian flu is exploding right now and if Trump thinks that makes him look bad better seal those lips or you’re gone. If you think this is crazy talk Trump already did this during Covid and publicly bragged that was why he was doing it!
Making matters worse the fastest way avian flu, which is deadly, can be transmitted to humans is…………you guessed it, raw milk. Those HHS hearings this week are going to be interesting, or not, because the GOP right now couldn’t give a rats ass about public health.

There is already warnings about food prices spiking as immigrants aren’t showing up and soon maybe be unable to harvest crops this country depends on. Oh wait I heard Orange Julius is going to bring down inflation, so I’m confused Marsh please share your expertise. Tariffs will increase the cost of goods coming in, food prices spiking with the labor force responsible for doing the menial labor our young feel is below them, oh my Marsh help us understand.

I’m not sure Trump would really understand any of that unless it was to make his family money. Even then I don’t think he’d understand it, he’d just sign the executive order.

You realize this AI is all bull#^&#^&#^&#^&. Nothing but a multi tera byte series of databases that the algorithms search and post the results. Doesn't make the search correct or even valid. It's just what the algorithm parses to be the answer.

It’s a lot more than a sophisticated search Paul. AI can identify non-explicit associations, self optimize and most dramatically generate output that semantic searches or even machine learning could never touch.
As you noted it’s not always right, often it’s errors are easy to spot and this limiting factor is good for humans. That being said, humans aren’t always right either and if AI can be 70% accurate but a million times faster you disrupt conventional workflows where a hierarchy thought process funnels decisions to the most experienced people thus reducing the need for less experienced labor.
We’re already well down this path.
What should really concern everyone, even Marsh, is how this technology is so ripe for misuse and abuse. In Gaza, we've already learned how Israel — being short on military targets — used AI to identify locations to strike with little human oversight. This appears to have been a big contributor to massive unessary civilian casualties.
With Trump eagerly taking his Sharpie to the US Constitution, I fully expect AI usage domestically to accelerate development of the fear based police state on our doorstep.
AI used for good may be a wonderful transformative thing to advance humanity, but when intentions are driven by greed, cruelty and a lust for power the impact on humanity could, no, will be freaking disastrous.
Time to revisit those most beloved science fiction authors of the 20th century as it’s all right there.
