Undoubtedly - the SC rigged one on the record, and GA wiped election servers from another after receiving a court request to hold them for investigation - but it sounds like he was just stirring the pot about mail-in votes with this statement.

Putin has brain cancer.

Don't you need to have brain in the first place to get brain cancer?

Not necessarily - Kissinger died of heart failure.

Fair enough.

captainlezbian , to politics in Texas erects new border barrier as dispute with Biden administration ramps up

If they want to be in texas so bad we should swing through New Mexico and take them there.

AnneBonny ,

I can't believe that people are still trying to cross the border there.

bluGill , to politics in Texas erects new border barrier as dispute with Biden administration ramps up

Biden could solve this problem by making the existing border crossings easier/faster. Last time I was in Mexico it two 3 hours to get back into the US. Border agents could work much faster. Mexicans - like humans everywhere - are mostly nice people. IF congress won't fund more border control then just metrics for how long the line is on the agents "scan the passport, you look like the picture, no red flags in the computer so I need to keep this line moving: NEXT". Just making the legal border crossing easier would make a big difference.

I really don't want to see an iran - pakistan conflict. Really we need way less conflicts in general.

ITT: settlers angry that they're getting called out by a despot arguably no different than the despots they uplift on "either side" of the aisle.

Our elections are rigged-- the only people allowed to make it to the finals are racist, genocidal, war-mongering, capital-extolling, military-industrially paid-for ghouls; regardless of what color tie they wear, and it's been that way for the last 50 years. Putin is capable of being a beneficiary of the same kind of rigging on his own end and being absolutely correct about how Occupied Turtle Island is rigged.

This is the essence of critical support. Two things can be right at once, and an abject bastard who is no ally can occasionally be dead on the money.

The human brain can run on a hamburger once every day or two. Investing immense amounts of energy into statistical models is only taking us further away from true, meaningful AI, not closer.

TacoBellAbuser87 , to World News in China's population drops for second year, with record low birth rate

China bad and old! ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

Rapidcreek OP , to World News in China's population drops for second year, with record low birth rate

Short term, it's going to be a disaster for the Chinese government. Most countries got wealthy before they got old. China is not. And unless its economy suddenly booms again for another decade and spreads the wealth evenly, its next generation are going to be financially/personally strained supporting a lot of elderly people.

This may be a prime motivation in Xi's actions.

nulluser , (edited ) to News in US Senate rejects measure to force human rights report on Israel

Here's a stupid idea.

How about a rule that just says that if the State Department has evidence that war crimes are being committed by other countries with money or weapons provided by the US, that it is obligated to immediately report said evidence to Congress. Congress should not have to ask for this kind of thing.

Edit: .. and then wait 30 days for an answer.

themachine ,

Will they also report themselves?

nulluser , to News in US Senate rejects measure to force human rights report on Israel

"How can we keep pretending that war crimes aren't being committed if we get a report telling us that war crimes are being committed? Geeze Bernie!"
