He doesnt have a position or status in Hawaii's government. Neither does his wife. He is already "famous" there and so is his wife for reason of Hawaii's history

He doesn't need money, at least as far as I know. He has an inheritance from his mom and maternal grandad who is also famous there for historical reasons also.

My nephew is also now "famous" for the connecrions my brother and his wife have as well as doing his own thing with hawaii's culture.
Huh.
So your family is very tied into the old money Kama'aina Haole New England missionary stock is what you're saying, right?
 
Something that may have passed people by:
Judge Merchan has altered the schedule of Trump's trial from Wednesdays to Fridays.
This was designed to make sure Orthodox Jews who support Trump overwhelmingly are excluded from his jury pool due to religious laws.
Oh for fucks sake, this is straight up bullshit. The Sabbath starts at sunset, and it’s DST. While a Jew could try to argue this to get out of jury duty, it’s ludicrous that any judge would actually accept it as a reason. Religious arguments to get out of jury duty simply don’t work.

If there’s any nefarious purpose, it’s to reduce media exposure as people tune out after Thursday evening.
 
Pontificating, one change I have noticed in recent years completely alters the fundiemental ways the right and left interact. The old saying "The Right views the Left as misguided, the Left views the Right as evil" is no longer true.


The Right now absolutely views the Left as Evil in turn.

That will have massive changes in a free and fair electoral system. If we ever sort our shit here in the U.S. that mind shift change will mean a lot more hostile right-wing and a lot more active one. And the Left only has themselves (and the Uniparty) to blame.

Wouldn't it make it harder to control the narrative if something happens that goes viral on social media over the weekend?

There's also the angle of them trying to lock down Trump from doing weekend rallies.
 
Time to go down memory lane.

That only applies to Republican presidents. Going back to Vietnam, if not before, Dem presidents have blithely and routinely gone to war without getting approval or even consulting anyone. I do not consent, I am a freeman traveller on the land, pig!
 
Not the point retard. How hard was it to wait for the Iranians to leave the embassy and kill them en route to a airport? Attacking a embassy is a no-no when said embassy belongs to someone like Iran who will retaliate.

Exactly. Legally, Syria is what as known as a "free kill zone," where sending your troops, dropping bombs, and even invading and seizing territory is not an act of war.

The good news is that a draft would, as far as I'm aware, require Congress to actually invoke it via vote.

Laws don't mean anything in 21st century America. We're a who-whom regime now.

So, place some responsibilities on the women as well.

Whoever does this will get 0% of the woman vote and lose the next election.

The failure to agree to compromise to prevent the war in the first place is on Lincoln.

Presidents do not have the power to change the Constitution. Imagining one more compromise to keep slavery around as Northern opposition to it only grew every year would have prevented a civil war is like imagining that Hitler was only one last appeasement away from starting WW2.

>According to an article from The Guardian, U.S. vinyl sales rose 21.7% in the first half of 2023, driven by artists like Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, and Fleetwood Mac. Swift’s latest album, Midnights, sold nearly 500,000 vinyl copies throughout the entire year.
So because faggots keep buying really bad music, the rest of us physical media collectors have to suffer?
 
So everything you need to live is up around 10%, but it's okay because some unspecified luxury goods are collapsing in price.
Isn't there a term for when this happens? A sudden crash of luxury good prices, becuase no one's buying them due to everything else being unaffordable? I seem to remember it being one of the warning signs that shit is about to hit the fan, economics-wise.

i believe the white house and media is calling it "Bidenomics"

I've seen it called a "richcession", but that's a stupid neologism. I'm not sure it has a name as such.

That depends on how you define "right wing."

If you define it as the public face that represents the "right wing," then you are forgetting that their entire existence is to be graceful losers. Barely any of those faggots have any real principles. They're kayfabe heels at best.

The right must purge their animated strawmen and avoid purity spiraling before any real organization can take place. They also need to actually have right wing beliefs and the courage (plus desire) to actually represent their constituents.

This is not going to happen.

The Republican party will die before it pivots unless some actual black swan event happens.

What REALLY needs to happen is the creation of a post-modern right wing ideology. There's room for traditionalists of course, but that can't be the main call. We don't have the demographics or societal disposition to "go backwards" or look to the past.

The Dark Enlightenment or whatever you wanna call it is the only thing I can think of with this approach, so let's hope whatever leader emerges from that (if any) doesn't end up sitting on a staircase pissing his pants while apologizing to a nigger for being white.
