How do you think he will get these armed Hamas to leave Gaza, if not by force? Will he be bribing them with Trump and Melania NFT and Crypto?

He also said he would get rid of bombs and unexploded ordnance when clearing out Gaza for his Israel buddies.

I thought Israel was bombarding their shit into dust? They seem to be doing fine. With Trump gibs they should be able to keep it defended. No need for US boots on the ground at all.

Oh no, based DOGE staffer down!

Short version:

Marko Elez, one of the two primary DOGE emissaries embedded in the Treasury Department, resigned from the Musk-led agency, the White House told The Wall Street Journal, after the publication uncovered Elez’s ties to a since-deleted X account with racist posts including calling for “eugenic immigration policy” and to “normalize Indian hate.”

I bet it was the normalize Indian hate that got him. Dude apparently worked in Silicon Valley for a bit so I get it.
God damn it, they still bow to this bullshit.

Surprisingly one of the only major losses ATM.
 
Wait… so if anti-gamer articles and Anita Sarkesian were funded by US-AID, does that mean that all of gamer gate; which lead to Trump’s rise in 2016 is all the result of democrats not considering the consequences of wasting all of our money?
Maybe karma is real after all

Hilarious and telling
 
What have they done to be so bad? I don't know anything about them.
one of the biggest fuckeries is CAFE standards. in the 70s during the fuel crisis, the NHTSA was put in charge of implementing Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards, which are standards meant to increase the average MPG of cars sold in the US

CAFE standards dictate that if car manufacturers do not meet minimum MPG goals set by CAFE then they will be charged a certain $ per 0.1 MPG they are under the goals per vehicle they manufacture that year. that penalty is not just for the vehicles that fail to meet CAFE standards, but for their entire production line. that's every single car they manufacture, even ones that meet CAFE standards

CAFE standards are determined by the vehicle footprint. so basically, the bigger the car is, the higher MPG it's allowed to have. the graph below shows what the targets have been for the last decade. thanks, in part, to the EV scam, progressives embedded in NHTSA have set these limits to unrealistic standards. the requirements they're asking for impossible for traditional Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) vehicles to meet, especially with the amount of safety equipment that's required to be in every car growing every year (which also happens to be managed by NHTSA)

this is further complicated by the fact that passenger cars and trucks have different standards set, so if a car manufacturer is able to get their vehicle classified as a truck they have a lot more leeway in the MPG limit. this directly led to the development of the SUV, which is a truck wearing a car skin suit. this also directly led to all pickup trucks being huge as fuck because no matter what you do, it is physically impossible for a small box on wheels to meet the MPG requirements. trucks are not meant to be MPG friendly, they are meant to be utilitarian

so, long story short, the reason there are no reasonably sized vehicles left to buy in the modern age is that they either need to be tiny hypermiler cars that can meet the almost impossible MPG targets for smaller cars, or they need to be giant behemoths that are allowed to take physics into account and be allowed to have a low MPG

The Supreme Court will shit all over Lamberth if the argument is cruel and unusual punishment
Fuck Royce Lamberth. Do you know what he's most famous for? Being the Presiding Judge of the fake court known as the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. You know, the rubber stamp that granted well over 99% of the requests filed by it to spy on people.

Everything always comes back to gamergate in one way or another its like the modern lynchpin by which all modern politics and culture derive from.
 
Considering the absolute state of the ATC, it wouldn't be too hard, and considering the kind of woman Hillary is, definitely what she is thinking of.
I can just imagine it now. Seething, she calls up a few old numbers she has to "handle business". One third of them are now disconnected, another third basically laugh in her face and tell her they've retired and that her and Bill should just shut up and fuck off and enjoy their last years on the huge pile of money they have, if DOGE's Eye of Sauron doesn't get to them first, and the last third tell her it's going to cost three times as much, and it's her cash up front on the table, because all the dark money lines aren't working anymore.

What, you think those wetworks spooks did it for free?

The best she can get now is a disgruntled troon who packs a pipe bomb in their luggage and tells the cops it's a dilator after they get caught.
 
I was literally just checking the thread to see if this was posted already. A slam dunk imo.

More things I've seen about the Gaza Plan:

It would seem this plan is not some epic own on Benny and Israel. In fact, it appears to have come directly from them and involves forcing Europeans to take the most forsaken, cursed, violent, disordered and resentful people in the Middle East as an additional burden.

In summary:

This is genuinely insane, and this is so over-the-top Philosemitic that it outdoes the "Zion Don" and the whole AIPAC-loving GOP meme and blows it out of the water. They're going to/want to deport every Palestinian to White countries, redevelop Gaza with OUR tax money, and then hand it over to Israel once it's all done. This is a meme. This is a literal caricature from a rabid anti-Semitic Neo-Nazi. If you had written this six months ago, it would've been beyond parody.
 
The US has spent > $310B on Israel. Bin Laden's direct stated reason for 9/11 was the US support of Israel (instead of the US propaganda spin of terrorists "hating freedom").

Whether intentional or unintentional, in a strange way this move might finally solve the Israel question. We spent 20 years proxy fighting for Isreal, we pay for the entire existence of that fucking country. If we have Americans directly fighting and dying for Israel, given the general squeamishness for war dead it might finally light the spark that turns America against its greatest ally, just as Americans fighting and dying in Vietnam did.

Either that, or we kill all the muslims and open the middle east entirely for the Jews. Whichever comes first, but either way we might finally solve this problem head-on instead of all the indirect proxy shit we're been doing since Israel's inception.

CAFE just needs to be deleted, it and CARB which gives California express control of much of the US's, and by consequence the world's vehicle regulations. This shit served it's purpose once smog was no longer blanketing US cities, and yet it kept pushing standards to ever more impossible limits. Every single person on these boards should be fired and anything they've put on the books as 'required' for cars in the last 20+ years erased.
