Exactly. Hence the name distinguishing it as the "American" one.... People (Americans?) are so dumb.

The media is just playing to the electorate there, I'm afraid.

I watched the YouTube stream of a recent Maryland townhall: dark blue state, all Democrat Representatives and Senators speaking and taking questions, hosted by a Democrat county executive. Someone got up and confronted them about the immigrants abducted by ICE being held in Baltimore Harbor and not allowed to see their lawyers. Multiple people in the live chat started complaining that they weren't discussing real issues like Social Security and Medicare. ... Even though they had discussed it earlier. Americans are fundamentally selfish.

Putting it on personal mobile devices allows it 1) to be more easily exfiltrared to their foreign affiliates, and 2) allows them to get around FOIA. I'm sure most of their actions are being carried out in a similar manner.

Even if we ever do wrest power from them, we will have to go along without ever knowing everything they have broken.

I think my husband and I learned to parent from Daniel Tiger.

My coworkers on my current project are also supporting a cube sat mission that just launched. I'm not sure I follow what's really unique about a cube sat mission though?

I think the kinetic launch is a cool idea from a physics perspective, but from a systems perspective, it's going to be fucking difficult to build systems to withstand it.

Same boat man! Will design you a satellite constellation for a visa.

I thought Teslas (or maybe just the Cyber truck?) wasn't insurable. I thought that was the whole reason Tesla has to offer car insurance, because regular insurers won't cover them.

I got the circumstances wrong, the temporary halt was because he didn't want the weapons used on civilians in Rafah.

Looks like they did threaten to withhold military aid in the fall over the flow of humanitarian aid, but that didn't happen.

I think Biden allowed genocide to proceed apace in Gaza. Full stop. This is just an attempt to answer your question about what would have been better under Kamala, presuming she would have been Biden 2.0:

Biden heavily pressured Netanyahu to open to border with Egypt to let aid in, even temporarily withholding military support to get him to do it. Additionally, Biden made an effort, however ineffectual, to airdrop aid and build a temporary dock to bring in aid on ships. Biden rolled over for Netanyahu, but there was at least the semblance that he was bothered by the civilian toll and attempted to lessen civilian suffering.

It's because our two party system (and our education system ...) doesn't allow you to have nuance or more than one or two issues that you vote on.

Criticizing Obama for drone strikes only ends up enabling the turn-the-middle-East-into-a-glass-parking-lot people (to bring back 2010 talking points). Similarly, to point out that Biden wasn't nearly tough enough on Netanyahu (he tried to grow a couple vertebrae of a backbone approximately twice) only ends up enabling the "Remember the Abraham Accords? Trump/Kushner a jew-whisperer!" argument.

I just came to shit on the Heritage Foundation, regardless of the veracity of the headline. Can I stay?

They need to be put on a terrorist watch list.
