A similar example from the right is Christians who believe we must support Israel in order to create the conditions for the end times. There's no persuading them out of supporting Israel because it's just axiomatic for them. People who do that with blank slate ideology give us things like men in women's sports because there's no difference at all between people you bigot.

It's why I never understood the idea of Christian Zionism, wanting to be charitable or wanting the Israelis to maintain protection of Christian holy sites is one thing. Still, you cannot force God's hand. The end times will come when God deems it so and not a moment before.

Trump really needs just to fire Powell at this point. It's clear he's actively doing everything in his power to manufacture a recession for no reason other than wanting to make Trump look bad.

Trump can fire Powell, but it has to be "for cause" since the Fed exists outside the control of the executive branch.

Powell would have to step down willingly, and even if he does, Trump can only select a new chair for the Fed from the 7 member board of governors.

For some extra info on the board of governors, most of the current crop maintain their terms until 2030-2038

You think you hate the Federal Reserve, but the truth is you don't hate it enough.

Some lefties have already tried to paint Trump as a Communist in the past, I remember seeing some shitty facebook posts about it in 2016, it's pretty laughable; they really cannot help but lob the same tired attacks

I love that so many people are openly talking about (and recommending) just fucking ignoring these idiot judges and carrying on anyway. It's entered the mainstream consciousness and I don't think these judges quite understand how dangerous that is. This is "jury nullification" on steroids, and judges already hate nullification. They should be scared shitless that the public at large is losing its willingness to respect and obey the courts.

All it takes for a district court to become utterly toothless is for its city/county police/sheriff departments to stop enforcing its orders. If these judges keep pissing everyone off like that, they're going to discover how far their gavels go when there's no guns backing them up.

It's quite literally Trump's decision on if there's an emergency or not.
Faggy Rand tried and failed in humiliating fashion to pass a bill that ended the emergency. This ruling is literally illegal on its face.

i know this will be hated, but i'm calling bullshit on it being his "scheduled time" i remember back in january them hyping up the fact that Elon and DOGE would be working until july 4th 2026, now its been about 120 days and he's done?

it reminds me of how ICE had a daily deportation announcement, but because they deported so few fuckers they abandoned it.

we finally have an elected official with real backing and power asking how WT7 fell the same way as the other 2 buildings despite not being hit with a airplane

Because it got hit with a gigantic falling skyscraper and then burned out of control for 8 hours.

Go read the fucking NIST report. It explains very plainely exactly why WTC7 fell.

His wikipedia page seems rather small compared to the amount of power he had.

And he has a Linkin page to boot.

I am going to need a lot more than some random Veritas video of a guy who sounded like he was half talking out of his ass for 90 seconds in a greasy spoon to give any weight to the idea being intimated that this guy was "really" running the fucking government. :story:

The NIST report is suspect for more reasons than im sure you will care to read.

A tower that collapses sideways could lead to a chain reaction of towers falling down. they dident want that so ALL the buildings fell down in the same uniform, frankly spooky, vertical collapse.

Let me ask you, how many buildings, outside of controlled demolitions, have you seen fall down PERFECTLY VERTICALLY, its like a structural engineers worst nightmare, its what you do EVERYTHING to design against because even a topple is preferred than a shearing and buckling of VERTICAL STABILIZERS.

Even if somewhere in the middle was structurally compromised its hard to understand how it could be weak enough to buckle in on itself but not topple from wind combined with the directionality of the impact, its implying all 4 corners of the structure gave way PERFECTLY EQUALLY otherwise it could come down with directionality as even a small difference in timing would cause increased weight being distributed unfairly and gravity would exacerbate this all the way down, it would follow the "lead" corners collapse at the break with the top going to opposite direction.
