The biggest takeaway for me is that all the good sounds bites are going to be Vance sticking his foot in his mouth. Vance had a bunch of safe and boring answers so nothing for Trump's base, who already dislike Vance. Walz was probably nervous but he definitely missed several chances to call things out.

Nah, it was just a show in Germany, even at Nuremberg only like 10 Nazi were executed. Most Nazis were just absorbed back into their society but the Germans just passed specific laws to prevent the display of Nazi flags. That is really the biggest difference. The Germans even let former Nazis back into the government.

Seems like the cops should now be worried about civilian phones exploding and now might consider shooting anyone that tries to hand them a phone /s

"She was also ordered to forfeit more than $11bn (£8.2bn) to the court."

That sounds like profit to me. It was the cooperation with the court that really did it.

It's worse than that, Dems today are literally more right wing than Richard Nixon. Nixon literally wanted Federal universal healthcare at one point, started the EPA and expanded welfare.

I live in rural NC and still see a bunch of signs for him around. I still think he's going to lose, but I know my county will probably still be like 75% Trump and Robinson voters.

People forget, but in the 70's Nader was so feared by the DC elite that Nixon repeatedly complained about him on the Nixon tapes. Nader would have been a good president based on his record of advocating for citizens over corporations.

This is 100% my question. I am assuming to polling was specifically done in an urban environment where there is some public transportation. It makes sense that you'd still have a lot of folks that would still want a car. If this was a more rural poll or would have to be like 99% car.

It's NC, so it's bottom of the barrel what is legally required minimum wage. 7.25

And yet a local Domino's Pizza around here is still offering the same $12 an hour rate and advertising a manager salary of $25k a year! Corporations never learn and people wonder why customer service is so crappy.

So one of the cops shot the other cop in the torso? Talk about a well trained police force. It's like something out of Naked Gun. And clearly the cops being there clearly made the situation much worse and injured more people. These stooges should never carry a gun again.

I'm sure NYC will be on the hook for a few lawsuits out of this one situation alone that will at least get into the low millions! Great job NYPD for a subway fare!

It's really insane if you listen to Reagan talking about immigrants being the strength of the nation and keeping the USA young and growing. And how if we ever stop with immigration or would ruin the country.
