This is for topical issues effecting our fair world... you can quit snickering anytime. Note: It is the desire of the leadership of SFDebris Conglomerate that all posters maintain a civil and polite bearing in this forum, regardless of how you feel about any particular issue.

Is there a Left Wing news media? Because even John fucking Steward forgot about presumption of innocence and painted Luigi Mangione as on par with domestic terrorists without even using the word "alleged", and he's usually pretty good about standing up and being a truth teller.
In this country, if you are not Fox News, OAN or Newsmax you will be considered liberal media. Especially if you mock or criticize Trump or his policies in any way.
Its like Yahoo News which I use to gather my news. You go in the comment sections, you will notice how annoyed Trumpers get if some news page says anything bad about their Dear Leader and then blame Yahoo News for it. Even though the article actually came from somewhere else.
Also Yahoo News comment section does have algorithm where they will block posts from posting if you say certain things. Then these same Trumpers accuse Yahoo News about censoring even though I could say something that would be liberal or even neutral and still get flagged.
I just get amused by it all. Trumpers accuse liberals (especially if it's a POC) of victimhood but don't have a problem when they do it.
Again. Hypocritical but they don't see it that way.
So now Musk employees under the DOGE umbrella have seized control of the treasury department and a few others and started messing with their computer systems.
DOGE is not a real department and Musk has not been through any confirmation process. There is absolutely no legal justification for this.

Ladies and Gentlemen is why you should vote.
Hopefully this will be shutdown. Though I suspect if this happens, Trump will just create that DOGE department as an official department of some kind. Whether Congress or Senate approves it or not.

You speak like someone who thinks that rules and laws still matter for this government. I got bad news for you...

So he's freezing payments now and controls the purse of the government despite that being Congress' role.

Who is going to stop the USA? That's what I'm worried about. The alliance stopped Nazi Germany. Who the fuck can stop Nazis with nukes?
Even if America manages to shoot down 99% of the nukes aimed at it, the remaining 1% will still flatten it into oblivion. And even if it manages to shoot down 100% of the nukes aimed at it, the resulting nuclear winter in the rest of the world will blot out the biosphere and essentially result in the exact same outcome.
This is not just a fun meme or a cool quote in a movie. It is hard fact.

The problem with mutually assured destruction is that it assumes none of the players are insane or complete idiots.
