I’d like to throw Libertarians in that same cess pool.

90% of them don’t know what Libertarian means, besides no taxes or regulations they don’t share any of the beliefs around personal liberty. They looove jack booted facist shit aimed at the left and minorities all in the name of law and order.

They will hide behind it as a defense mechanism to side step any accountability for their voting record now that the Republican brand is completely fucked.

“Ohh I voted for him but Trump doesn’t represent my beliefs, I’m a libertarian.”

You are going to see a lot of hard core Republicans claiming to be something else as Trumps approval rating sinks further below 30%.

I never once mentioned “airport” in my post.

You may want to better educate yourself on this subject before responding.

ACLU 100 mile boarder zone

In the US, the boarder is considered anywhere within 100 miles of an international boarder. I.E. Oceans, Lakes that are adjacent to another country and the actual boarder with another country.

Ice agents can setup checkpoints anywhere within this area and search your phone. Since most Americans live near the coasts this “boarder area” covers an 90% of the population.

The proportions of his head is all wrong, and the hat doesn’t lay properly on the back of his head. I’m pretty sure it’s AI.

No

Both statements can be true at the same time. But the scale of one is many times larger.

China’s MO from rare earths and magnets to cars to silicon follows the same plan. Take IP, Subsidize the industry, Research, once you have a monopoly use it to squeeze adversaries.

I will say at least China is willing to kill off underperforming companies.

The US needs to let a lot of legacy companies that aren’t performing die off. It also needs to break up oligopolies in many industries. Why compete when you can buy up the future competitors and set prices with a handful of competitors. The financialization of our economy is choking us.

There has been a ton of stories lately of women targeting ICE agents and getting valuable intel on their operations which they pass along to anti-ice organizations, or working to out them to the public and reveal their identity.
