I'm a patriotic American, but I think the Revolutionary War was a mistake and history would have been a lot better if the US had stayed British. So the printing presses used by the Founding Fathers did a lot of harm even without being "automatic assault presses".

Wonder if North Korea is thinking now would be the perfect time to attack.

Yes, but whoever Trump picks next will be attacked just as harshly as Vance. Remember what happened to Kavanaugh. All the media needs is one person claiming personal knowledge that the nominee did or said something bad.

I watched all of it, and the interview was highly inconsistent with the narratives that either Trump is Hitler or Trump is senile. The interview made Trump seem joyful. Funny to think back to the TV show NewsRadio (yes, I'm old) and consider that the actor playing the station mechanic played a key role in an US presidential election by interviewing Donald Trump.

The PA governor is Jewish. I wonder if having him on the ticket would hurt with turnout with a segment of the Dem base?

The British abolished slavery without a Civil War! If the US had been militarily part of the UK you don't get WW I and II (probably) and as a bonus no communism.

What I don’t understand about Elon is his push for Mars colonization, given his views on AI. AI is either going to kill us or greatly accelerate technological progress. If it kills us, it will find us on Mars. If it accelerates technology, it will make getting to Mars much easier than it is today. Given the likely progress of AI over the next 15 years, why is Elon bothering with trying to colonize Mars in the near future?

The only moral action is to use Neanderthal DNA to bring back some Neanderthals and then abandon Europe to them.

But in a real free market, a condition of sale could be that you wave any legal liability for injury.

How long until Trump tells a joke about Kamala and Willie Brown? I bet he already has some prepared.

But harder now for the Dems to attack Trump for this.

Experiment: When a plumber, electrician, or handyman has finished his job and expects payment, ask if paying in cash is OK. You will see an expression of pure joy cross his face as he answers "yes".

It's my impression that women hate women who use sex to get ahead in the way that Kamala did.

Trump talked about the drones at a press conference. As best I remember, he refused to say if he had been briefed, said they couldn't be foreign, and said the US government should say what they are. Assuming Trump was briefed and is not being misleading this means the drones are likely controlled by the US government. The military has massive bases on which to test drones, so I'm guessing the drones are looking for something.

A long time ago I was a congressional intern. The issue that generated the most mail was animal rights. Don't be surprised if this killing has political impact.

What's with old people is that if you have had a serious medical issue you lose all sense of embarrassment and shame concerning your naked body because you deal with doctors and nurses looking at it, and you stop caring about how you appear when naked in front of others.

Could be, but then why wouldn't the military admit what it is doing?

If it happened now, an emergency appeal to the US Supreme Court would likely quickly result in Trump being freed.

Trump obviously believes in quantum immortality so knew he would survive from his viewpoint.

Elon might be able to get humans to Mars before someone creates a computer superintelligence, but it seems very unlikely he could create a self-sustaining Martian colony before superintelligence is created.

The Dems probably thought the Republicans were incapable of backtracking on abortion, but Trump pulled it off.

The Black Hand got a random troubled kid to kill Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
Or the printing press which allows heretics to attack the honor of the holy Catholic Church. Let's pray this doesn't cause schisms and violence.
