Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

Chickens my ass, Joe. Delaware is just the asshole of New Jersey when it comes to chemicals.
And no mention of the fact that nearly every bank/credit card/finance company has a HQ there because of their liberal incorporation laws.

Industry of Delaware​

The only mining in Delaware is of gravel and sand. The major economic enterprise is manufacturing, especially chemicals. Wilmington boasts of being the chemical capital of the world because it is the administrative and research centre of several chemical companies: DuPont, Hercules, and AstraZeneca. Chief chemical products are pigments, nylon, petrochemicals, and pharmaceuticals. Delaware also has a petroleum refinery, a synthetic rubber plant, packaging plants, and textile mills. Dover is home to food-processing and other industries.

Finance and other services​

Owing to the state’s liberal incorporation law (1899), Delaware is the legal home to thousands of American and foreign corporations. More than three-fifths of the companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange are incorporated in Delaware. The law does not require Delaware corporations to maintain more than a token presence in the state, but it is the source of considerable corporate litigation for Delaware’s courts and corporate lawyers. The corporation franchise tax is an important source of state revenue.

Sauce

The Eastern Shore of Maryland is loaded with chickens. NOT Delaware. Senile ol' fuck, not that I'm surprised since he doesn't even know where he is half the time.

"Maryland has more than 500 chicken concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs), mostly on the Eastern Shore. They range in size from just over 30,000 birds at a time to more than 560,000. Ferrell and some other Eastern Shore residents are worried about what those farms are releasing into the air.

Each CAFO contracts with a big poultry company. On the Eastern Shore, some of the most common are Mountaire Farms, Tyson Foods, and the Salisbury-based Perdue Farms. The chicken houses are typically large metal buildings — the newer ones are about the length of two football fields. Each house can hold anywhere from 25,000 to more than 50,000 birds.

Andrew McLean said his farm in Centreville has about 171,000 chickens in a flock, spread across six houses. He gets five or six flocks, or a total of at least 855,000 birds, a year."

By contrast, I didn't donate any money in 2016...and I couldn't have asked for a better outcome.

Wasn't Trump's campaign largely self-funded? His campaign was an anomaly for a lot of reasons, but the biggest one I think was the fact that it was funded by and for a literal billionaire and could be propped up solely by that money alone.

Successful artists don't do online commissions full-time. They make assets for game studios, work at production houses, design for websites, have contracts with galleries and museums to display and sell their artwork, etc. Doing commissions for strangers online eats into time where they can reliably make more money, and when they do open commissions, it's because they're in between gigs since 90% of this industry is part of the gig economy to begin with.

Strangely and unfortunately the online artists that do make most of their big money from online commissions are...furry artists.

Furry fandom on suicide watch once again.

I know that Section 230 is a big issue here, but thoughts on this snippet Dan Crenshaw is introducing?

Preliminary thoughts; I'll care when he actually does more than pass bills. Congressmen do this all the time and yet many never get to where they pass the House or reach the Congress floor for discussion. Plus I don't trust him anyway.

Intresting, reading through it putting enforcement in the FTC is interesting, as it is more likely to act on behalf of consumers and by giving the States a right of action it holds the feds feet to the fire to act. The 3 Billion dollar threshold also means this is clearly aimed at twitter facebook google et al and not every small forum and private discord so it seems generally well thought out. I would be ok with this.

It really is astounding how hellbent they are on pissing off the very same people they vilify as violent extremists.

"Our Democracy™️ is in peril! Let's commandeer elections so that we always win, disenfranchising half the country who are on the verge of violently overthrowing us!"

It's a level of tone-deaf arrogance that I cannot fathom.

Because ultimately they want the fight. They live for it. They’ve structured their entire ethos around it for generations at this point.

The dying fucks like Pelosi and Schumer might not really like the circumstances, but they have to do extreme shit to keep the rest of the coalition happy. What the cost of this retarded little game is, or if there even is a cost at all, is a matter of argument as this thread itself attests. Until there’s a big cost this slow, humiliating death is entirely deserved.

Then why is Paypal issuing 1099 forms to people at $600? I'm also seeing other users saying that it did pass by being snuck in.

there was two different tax related lines in the bill that delt with amounts of $600. the mandatory banking reporting of transactions/wires of more than $600 dollars was axed. the 1099k for over $600 passed.

The disturbing part is that the latter got swept under the deluge of articles covering the former, and at the expense of my health, browse A&H fairly regularly for financial news. I literally didn't know about the line about 1099k until this morning.

I think that's a "you have reportable income" thing, similar to a W-2 from your employer. It's not giving the IRS access to your bank accounts.

Speaking of which, I don't think I got the refund I was owed last year, in spite of receiving my Bidenbux.

I don't think it's tone deaf arrogance. I think it's intentional, they want someone to flip out and fight back, shoot someplace up, bomb someplace, stage an "insurrection," whatever.

Trump would need a third term to even begin fixing all this.

And that's why he shouldn't run. Because unless he's willing to literally fix centuries old problems caused by multiple presidents, politicians, bureaucrats, and even citizens, he can't lead us. /sneed

What do I know? I guess you really can build a wall stretching the southern border in 4 years. And maybe those powerful, White /pol/lacks actually cost Trump the election.

If the US gets its Pinochet, and he fails, I don't know what Right wants after that.
