Supporting what Putin and Russia have done with Crimea and then trying to take over the rest of Ukraine just shows that you are either a bot, or just trying to whitewash the invasion. It's probably time for Russia to be broken up to prevent this sort of thing from happening again.

And it still comes down to, "Why was he stopped?" in the first place. ICE isn't known for actually following the law, in the same way that Donald Trump himself isn't known for following the law, or even the rules of basic human decency.

There are some basic issues at play here, such as there needing to be reasonable suspicion that any sort of crime has been committed before any sort of search or seizure of property. Since ICE is not known for getting a warrant, just going over the border does not mean there is a REASONABLE suspicion that anything wrong has been done. Since the government does not have a right to just take personal property then, they have no realistic case to charge someone for destruction of ANYTHING the person actually owns themselves.

Now, ICE is really subjecting itself to lawsuits for violations of the US Constitution, and with any luck, as of Jan 21st of 2027, the Trump administration will lose its control as Republicans will lose control of the House and hopefully Senate.

Did Trump actually care?

You are just another xenophobic idiot who can't handle anyone who is different than you are. The people who identify as this or that aren't being broken into this or that "identity", they do it themselves when they feel they are being discriminated against. The anti-woke people(you probably fall into that category) still feels that there is no racism in the USA, and that complaints about systematic racism are just people looking for a handout while their rights are being attacked.

If you are blind to there being racism in many towns, or in police forces, then that is why there are protests when people are killed by racist police officers who are then protected by the overall police force and politicians. You probably support ICE killing US citizens without anything happening to those ICE agents who are GUILTY of murder.

There is a fair amount of doubt when it comes to some of those "attempted assassination" attempts. You don't regrow an ear for example, and the reactions do not reflect what a true attempt would have resulted in for some of them. Overall, staged "assassination" attempts have just been used as an excuse to create a police state.

Promotion by government of one religion over another is very much the sort of thing that this talks about. You can take certain core concepts, such as not killing others and make THOSE laws, but government should not be promoting one religion, or pushing that religion. The moment you do that, it encourages other places to make laws to restrict what YOU do with your religion. Picture it being illegal to eat or sell pork, because that's the belief of those in power in a given place.

MAGA is dominated by uneducated and clueless people who cheer the flag while stepping on the US Constitution. For those idiots, you are correct, facts do not matter, because you have a wannabe fascist dictator talking loudly, and Fox News supporting the rise of the sort of garbage that SHOULD have died after World War II.

With that said, it's bad when people promote the garbage that was the hallmark of the Nazi Party, which Donald Trump has been copying as well.

Nah, I would probably do things very few do, such as having a full house for the workers to live in cheap(taxes and basic maintenance costs being the only thing I would ask in return). It would be a lot less expensive than rent for an apartment, that's for sure.

Many of us have been trying to make things better, and end up feeling squeezed by the economy, or AI job losses, or whatever. With that said, I wouldn't mind trying to be a rich asshole as a change of pace, because I'd probably do more positive things with the money than the rich assholes you hear about in the news all the time.

Unlike wind and solar, tidal generators of all types don't have a "no power is generated due to this or that". Seriously, unless something happens to damage the tidal generators, what's going to stop the movement of water in oceans and seas?

Yet another reason not to go Apple.

There have been two sides to this issue, and you may have missed the nuances involved. First, you have the voice recognition/internal systems that many auto makers have. Then you have Android Auto/Apple Car Play support. In some cases, if the car includes its own voice recognition system, that tends to mess up integration with Android/Apple voice support, because the voice button goes to the system the auto maker has included, and in many cases, without there being an option to set which one you want the voice button to work with.

Now, Google has been adding new features into Android Auto, such as climate control support. Obviously, the car maker needs to enable that functionality, but for new cars, you SHOULD be able to hit the voice button and tell it to set the temperature to whatever, turn on/off the front/rear defroster, and things of that nature without needing to hit any buttons. A number of auto makers have skipped on trying to reinvent the wheel and don't even have their own voice control system, the button goes to Android/Apple automatically and uses the assistant on your phone.

There are relatively few people who would benefit from internal navigation, such as those who live in extremely rural areas that don't have cell phone service EVERYWHERE, but the idea of the auto maker making specific deals with Apple or Google seems like a complete waste of money.

Remember how bad it was when Apple Maps first came out? Putting it INTO the vehicle as a default is a really really bad idea.

Hyundai has a decent setup for this. The only subscription would be BlueLink(the system where you can use an app to get information about your car and such) after three years/36000 miles. Hyundai also has the higher end cars with BlueLink+, where you get the service for the life of the vehicle without any limitation or additional fee. Hyundai also has embraced Android Auto/Apple Car Play, so they don't push you to using THEIR system when your phone provides a probably better service.

I agree with you, all of these car companies that FORCE you to a subscription for what should be seen as basic features are going to drive buyers away.
