2024 US Presidential Election

[Daniel Lion]

This is a photo from 1945 of liberated Jewish concentration camp survivors at Dachau. Are some of them making the "Nazi salute", as well?

@Luman, I do not correspond with you on this thread, so I will not comment on your perception of this photo.

Good luck. Post to your heart's content.

I will see you on a different thread if our paths cross again.

Take care.

I am not trying to demean anyone on this thread as I try to respect everyone.

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

Ah, the leader giving direction to private industry leaders to further his political goals.

There's a type of political structure that utilized this sort of organizing principle, but I just can't seem to remember what it was. All I can say it was kind of in vogue in Europe in the first part of the 20th century.

President Orange and his significant other:

Trump said he couldn't care less if we have to pay higher prices for new cars:

Trump says he 'couldn't care less' if auto prices rise because of tariffs

Remember: Banks are people too!

Then they'll say you should just keep a 'buffer' in your checking so that doesn't happen and blame you again. Americans love to think they're so smart and wise for avoiding getting fucked in the ass that they don't see why the ass fucking should be prevented in the first place.

Do you mean our tinnitus? Or my personality? I've been really struggling with my left ear static noise. I'm worried about having this noise until I expire which is depressing. It's not that I'm not trying to fix it. I've had left jaw replacement and recently had CT scans of my temporal bone and TMJ.

I don't see why the ass fucking should be prevented in the first place.

That's what the Norwegians think is so damn natural. I always thought Adam & Eve was a man and a woman.

The UAW supports Trump's auto tariffs.

In a Victory for Autoworkers, Auto Tariffs Mark the Beginning of the End of NAFTA and the “Free Trade” Disaster - UAW | United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America

Days after Volkswagen, the #2 automaker in the world, announced making $20.6 billion in profit in 2024, a new UAW survey of VW workers in Chattanooga reveals the devastating financial toll of VW’s substandard U.S. health care offerings.

You'd think that as a tinnitus sufferer yourself, you would be more concerned about the Trump administration harassing and firing FDA employees on a daily basis.

I read on Apple News two days ago that the medical device section will not be affected. Make of that what you will.

IT ALREADY HAS been affected.

If you have any information to the contrary, please provide a link.

Has anyone watched Elon Musk's informative town hall in Green Bay, Wisconsin?

Elon Musk:

IRS refund fraud payments are one of several means used by the Democratic Party to attract and retain illegal immigrants in the USA. That's why they are so opposed to @DOGE stopping this!

The Democratic Party is aiding and abetting fraudulent government payments to illegals in order to establish a permanent one-party majority nationally, just like they did in California.

The more you look into it, the crazier it gets.

Demagogue!
A political leader who seeks support by appealing to the desires and prejudices of ordinary people rather than by using rational argument.

Senator Cory Booker just taught me a new word I've been looking for for a while.

Briefly. Other than Musk attempting to buy votes for the Wisconsin Supreme Court special election (which ultimately failed), I didn't glean any particularly interesting information from it.

What else was said?

I'm sorry to hear about your struggles; a jaw replacement is a major surgery. Are you recovering well? Wishing you a speedy recovery.

I share your worries. Advancements in tinnitus research move at a glacial pace, and relief doesn't seem to be coming anytime soon. Regenerative medicine currently seems like a pipe dream, but I feel that bioelectronics (such as Neurosoft) still offer a small glimmer of hope.
