I haven’t seen my Grandma in a few years. I’m actually visiting the state next month, but I won’t visit her.
She knows why. And my Dad doesnt argue with me about it. He really goes to check on his sister.
I don’t tolerate intolerance. This is what happens when Americans do.
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Donald Trump announces plan to change elections17·5 months agoMaybe it’s just me, but it feels like a bad idea to do something that disenfranchises people at the moment.
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•McConnell cries foul after 2 Democratic judges cancel retirement after Trump victory8·6 months agoInteresting. Bitch MacDonald is groveling at Trump’s feet.
Turtle man has no bar to lower.
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump cabinet criticized as hodgepodge team unified only by ‘absolute fealty’ to him21·6 months agoHats… Why they are called beurocrats.
But the ones who are leaving are largely close to retirement and would rather not deal with bullshit to their own job, and I respect that. The ones who aren’t leaving probably see this as a great stepping stone for their career, as they get to enforce rules most previous position holders were unaware of.
Federal government is just like corporate jobs in that there is a game to play - the game is fundamentally different in that it’s based on law and office mission, rather than profit and deceit.
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Elon Musk calls for ‘appropriate penalty’ against Alexander Vindman for ‘treason’22·6 months agoI’ve said before - have you actually seen him in a situation where he’d be vulnerable like that?
There is a level of rich, and I don’t know if it’s when you make hundreds of millions or your first billion, but at some point it just becomes easier to only travel to secure venues by escort.
The security prices these guys pay must be insane to us, but likely a drop in the ocean for them.
Why do you think the flight tracking bothered them so much? Because it broadcast arrival and departure times, and destination. That allows planning.
If the public doesn’t know when you arrive and when you leave, or how you arrive or how you leave, that’s just a bit of added security.
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump picks John Phelan, a businessman with no military experience, to be secretary of the Navy151·6 months agoI knew a second Trump administration was going to be a horror show, but I’m pretty sure Putin orchestrated a lot of this in revenge of the US using capitalism to crush the USSR.
He’s now using capitalism to crush the US. And he’s barely doing anything, he just had to help get a spoon fed capitalist elected and the capitalist would handle the rest.

peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Exclusive: Trump plans no exemption for oil imports under new tariff plan, sources say24·6 months ago“look I know y’all said lower prices, but I think we can do better! Higher prices, for everyone and everything!”
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump AG pick Matt Gaetz says he's withdrawing2·6 months agoProblems for Trump.
Not problems for a lame duck
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Matt Gaetz withdraws as Trump's nominee for attorney general4·6 months agoI think a lot of these are covering Romeo and Juliet scenarios. 19+16 is def not ok in a lot of those.
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Cyber-Security Experts Warn Election Was Hacked7·6 months agoInteresting. Minnesota has ballot backed electronic voting (vote is done on paper, read by machine), and the presidential results were far closer than anyone here is admittedly happy about, but it’s not exactly possible to do ballot stuffing like this.
I can see one swing state having an anomaly like this possible - that’s an anomaly.
The 7 swing states that Trump won? That’s a pattern.
However, I also would want to know what the bullet ballots were for all 50 states, not just the ones neighboring the swing states states to say it’s a pattern.
But the other part where it’s specific counties thats weird. To me, that sounds more like organized efforts to get people to at least vote for president. A cyber attacker certainly wouldn’t use county voting participation data to find registered voters unlikely to vote and cast a bullet ballot for them… Right?
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump AG pick Matt Gaetz says he's withdrawing6·6 months agono, see, in Trump’s head, Guilliani is a loser because he couldn’t escape having his stuff taken by the law
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump AG pick Matt Gaetz says he's withdrawing311·6 months agoWeird. Either there’s a 4D chess move here, or Trump doesn’t have full control of the GOP like he wants.
That’s going to cause problems.
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Federal Inquiry Traced Payments From Gaetz to Women | A document prepared by federal investigators bolsters claims by women who say they were hired for sex by Trump’s choice for attorney general3·6 months agoIt’s too late at night for me right now, but did Gaetz ever get on Trump’s bad side?
Is it possible he’s using Gaetz to test the waters of his nominees, or is he using the nomination to humiliate Gaetz? Has Trump responded to the scandal?
It seems odd that Trump would purposely trigger infighting before he took office.

peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Gaetz sent over $10K in Venmo payments to 2 women who testified in House probe, records suggest11·6 months agoWomen? Or underage girls?
And if this was to keep them quiet, he sure learned a lot from his dear Leader didn’t he
peopleproblems@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Sexual Abuse Victims Speak Out Against Trump Campaign's Linda McMahon3·6 months agoI get that they are using the dirt as leverage against eachother, but if they really wanted to conspire they could just remove protections for minors.
Child labor laws, consent, sentencing, etc. it kind of highlights how stupid the party is.
That’s going to make a lot of people upset. I don’t recommend doing that.
But then again, I can use reasoning to gauge whether a certain action will have a certain outcome.
