FBI, Homeland Security agents raid office of well known Providence immigration lawyer.

Federal agents take boxes of files out of the of office of Providence lawyer Joseph Molina Flynn, who specializes in immigration work.
FBl and US Attorney's office won't say what raid is focused on. But it appears it had been in the works for a while, not the last few days.

Your Karen attitude won't help at all, lady. You'll be lumped in, along with the rest of 'em. :story:

And literally having them do an exercise to divide them and rile them up politically.

Soldiers should have every right to discuss politics, but never in official capacities or as part of their job.

I'd be interested in @Joseph Stalin 's take on this.

Electricity prices in the EU are a shitshow and almost fully decoupled from supply and demand due to distortion from the EEX

The reason why energy is so expensive is that Merkel, may she be killed by wild apes, shut down many nuclear and coal powerplants. The reason why France has cheap energy is because they use a fuck ton of nuclear energy and 'green' countries have to wait till 2030 for their first nuclear powerplant because of regulations and investigations.
But let me tell you why green policies aren't realistic in any scenario in Northern-Europe, it is because:
1. Germanic countries only have on average 1800 hours of sunshine a year, thus without subsidies it is actually a net negative to have solar panels for both homeowners and companies. Many green energy and recycling businesses straight up admitted that their industry can only sustain itself with subsidies.
2. European energy grids are overburdened and slow to upgrading, we have companies not being able to invest into new buildings or new machinary because the local energy grid would be too overburdened and thus have to wait 3-6 years for more energy. For example, one town's entire energy grid could instantly be overburdened by 1 electric truck.
3. Nobodies buys recycled waste, this goes for recycled paper, plastic and construction material. Local recycled plastic of worser quality is more expensive than higher quality plastic from China.
4. The only reason why companies follow green policies is because of regulations and multi-nationals suggesting it (=threatening).
5. Even if politicians want to ignore green policies, they are still forced to do it because otherwise they would get sued by the greens for it. And if the judge rules against the greens, the greens will start another trial with a more green judge.
6. The strongest solar panel battery of 22.000 euro's when fully charged can only supply a house realisticly for 2-12 hours, meanwhile a generator of 400 euro's can supply a house for 8 hours with 5 liters of petrol.
7. A bit unrelated but companies and homeowners sometimes cannot build because an investigator found shit from a protective animal like birds, hedgehogs or bats.

US politics thread, I know. Just wanted to echo this sentiment from the Japanese side. Whenever any road traffic accident happens involving anyone non-Japanese, it trends on X with the general opinion being "why are these people even here in the first place?"

(I make sure to drive very carefully while I'm here. I'm one of the "good ones" I hope.)

You nips are alright. Especially your intolerance for immigration. Japan for the Japanese.

Since we're on the topic of nuclear. Three Mile island is being reactived by Microsoft as many of you know. Do you know why it closed? Democrats. In Pennsylvania there is an Energy portfolio. Basically companies must buy X percent of a certain method of power generation. Nuclear energy was not a part of this portfolio. Republican lawmakers wanted to bail out TMI and add nuclear to the portfolio to give the plants more income. Dems killed this, particularly the Governor. Plant shuttered. Now Microsoft is restarting it.

Is starmer's judgement hur- YES. OF FUCKING COURSE IT IS. What a stupid question.

Also low-key appreciating that "bong" has finally entered official discourse about this country, even if it is accidental. Oh dear, it's just past one o'bong, I'd better go eat.

Let's divert the conversation into more pressing matters:

Ivanka Trump wears a dress "inspired" by Audrey Hepburn's Sabrina (1954) gown. Audrey Hepburn's son, Sean Hepburn Ferrer responds. Excerpts from the Daily Mail.

I understand Sean is Audrey's son, which is a massive honor and privilege itself. I don't exactly like how he'd use her mom's legacy to play politics. I cannot say much about Ivanka's inspiration for Hepburn's style; Audrey's posture and style of clothing is iconic from grace. I still think Audrey wore it better, but that's me.

so the outfit was specifically meant to look like the Breakfast At Tiffany's thing?
I'm pretty sure I have to go take an aids test after picking up on a fashion cue like that

Yes, actually. "Our" crossdressing weirdos didn't try to twist and deform children into versions of themselves with full institutional backing.

You get Swat Kats instead.

Swat Kats was nice enough, but they needed a third one to Getter with, and I get the idea of Mayor Jim Cummings sounding welsh because old corrupt mayors from the 1900s amirite but yeah it just sounds like Winnie The Pooh had a stroke

For anyone on the fence of doompilling, consider the following 4 possible outcomes:

You doompillYou stay prepared yet hopeful
"The collapse" really happens100% chance you're fuckedNarrow chance you survive into a new golden age
Nothing ever happensYou end up being a miserable loser nobody likes to hang out withYou end up getting fit, well-rounded, and having cool hobbies "all for nothing"

This is very close to one of my favorite MatI moments, “Pascal’s Wagers for Zoomers”. If you doom you will eternally be doomed.

Sorry for being dumb and retarded but I know nothing about COVID beyond what the normies want me to believe about it. Can I get "redpilled" or "educated" or whatever dumb term we can use about it? I'd like to do my own research but I genuinely dunno how with this kinda stuff when everything's so biased so I'm asking here like a fag.

I realize asking here will still just get me biased answers but oh well thread looks like it slowed down anyway.

That's fairly easy, friend. Whatever the mainstream media said about COVID, the truth is the exact opposite of it. There you have it.
