According to FedNews that email was flooded with all kinds of spam, from recipes to excerpts from movie scripts and bullet points outlining retirement and vacation activities, some NSFW. And some reported it as phishing.

He is such an ass. So much time and money wasted on figuring out that dumb email.

Canada's a world leader in nuclear technology. We could build them easily in a relatively short time frame, probably undetected. Testing would be the tricky part obviously.
Not saying I support it, but I'm quite sure it's possible.

You need enriched Uranium or Plutonium which is extremely expensive to produce. Canada does have the facilities to do it, though.
Also, it is well above the pay grade of a BA physics student. There is a reason that nuclear weapons are still the province of a small group of nations.

At this point, I basically want a year of this chaos to really drive up prices across the board.

You can't fix stupid. The GOP supporters need to be cudgeled by the price of eggs, the price of gas, the price of prescriptions, the closing of their schools, the deportations of their families, the loss of their government funded jobs.

Pounded into submission by the government they voted for and the government they deserve.

Pain is the only way they can learn.

You’re not wrong. The only way these cultist will learn at this point, is pain. Add in losing their social security benefits etc.

Sadly, losing their Medicaid/Medicare might kill a lot of them off before they learn.

Seems like it solves the problem either way.

I am sure this would be fine...nothing bad could possibly happen, right?

https://www.politico.com/news/2025/0...tations-022648

A group of prominent military contractors, including former Blackwater CEO Erik Prince, has pitched the Trump White House on a proposal to carry out mass deportations through a network of “processing camps” on military bases, a private fleet of 100 planes, and a “small army” of private citizens empowered to make arrests.

What is terrifying to me - Elon Musk has a Top Secret security Clearance, without any assessment, just because Fat Donny said he could have one. Kiss all your national secrets and personal information goodbye. Add in his computer luckiest with the same clearance, and the US might as well surrender.

Throwing a little positivity into this thread:


Quote:
Diners in a Windsor, Ont., restaurant were stunned and elated over the weekend when an American couple picked up the bill for the packed establishment — citing U.S. President Donald Trump's divisive rhetoric and their love of Canada.

May Hermiz is the co-owner of Toast on Erie Street. She says the day took an unexpected turn during their lunch rush when the couple from Ann Arbor, Mich., told her they wanted to pay for everyone in the restaurant.

Costa Rica is taking on the people being deported as well because the countries they are being sent back to are not taking them. THey hoping kissing Trumps feet doing this helps them with him.

It won't, but sick people.

Also the processing camps are nothing new, he talked about camps being set up for the people being rounded to be deported. Another country set up camps a long time ago.....

I work at a company with a lot of that tech principle B.S. where we have contracts with pseudo-motivational speakers that constantly bombard us with emails.

To think i have ever opened one of those email or viewed its contents. I guess i would be the first to go under Elon's test. Piss off, dude we have work to do

If you think it’s bad now, and it is, it’ll be a hell of a lot worse in 12 months. A lot worse. Buckle in.

More than 20 civil service employees have resigned from billionaire Trump adviser Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, saying they're refusing to use their technical expertise to “dismantle critical public services.”
