Vance is the heir apparent to Trump, that is the impact his pick has had. Everyone can see it, and no one seems to object much to it.
Walz was yet another brain dead choice in a long list of brain dead choices made by an incompetent diversity hire of a woman who has never won any major elected office outside of CA. Her loss was only in doubt because of worry about a repeat of 2020 fraud, and the major institutions of the professional class burying the gas pedal into the floor in their attempt to gas light the nation into thinking of her as Presidential material.
The fraud didn't happen, and the major institutions no longer have the credibility to set the Narrative anymore thanks to the way they all blew the backs of their own heads off during COVID spreading misinformation.
You are seeing now why Biden picked her as VP, as a walking talking guarantee to not be 25th Amendmented out of office.
I might have posted too soon, the House may not flip.
We'll have to see.
I grow tired of economists who haven't groked that the theory of competitive advantage so beloved by free traders is bullshit when labor is as mobile as capital.
Tariffs protect domestic industry from predatory offshoring of labor. China needs tariffs on their imports that offset their lack of environmental and labor laws.
X needs to offer block and mute, like Gab does. Block means they can't see or reply, mute means they just cant reply.
She took the Ticket, and will pay the price, like all of them do, for fame.
Compare and contrast her career to that of Tom McDonald, who has not taken the Ticket, and has more talent in the tip of his pinky finger than that fucking whore has in her entire body.
university student body is 2/3 women, degrees awarded are 2/3 women, so it should not be a surprise that women out earn men in areas where a university degree carry a premium. This has been known for a while, as an outgrowth over the controversy over the "women earn $0.79 compared to men." Women out earn men early on, but then it flips later on, after men climb the salary range with experience, and women dropping out to have children.
I don't choose a character to represent myself in the game, I choose a character to represent myself IN THE STORY of the game.
This is the part the DEI cultists just cannot get, the story drives the game not the characters, and DEI people universally suck at writing a good story. Their books suck, their video content sucks, their games suck, all for this same exact reason.
Larry Corriea has made this point over and over again when it comes to books, that woke books have shit storytelling, and it shows in the one metric that matters: No one buys them.
So it goes with woke video games: no one buys them.
I knew it was only a matter of time until this story showed up here.
Was going to post it myself. :D

Access to white people is not a right.
I've seen videos of her speaking on something she knows well, and she doesn't come across as an idiot. Her problem is that she can tick off the number of things she knows well using the fingers on one hand.
She is a culturally cloistered girl boss of the professional class, with a heaping helping of diversity hire thrown in. She has never known accountability, knows next to nothing, and cannot handle pressure at all.
Because I have limited my book reading primarily to authors published by Baen, or titles I found on Amazon, I haven't noticed the heavy female bias of regular publishing. I haven't even been into a book store in almost a decade.
If I were a male author, I wouldn't even try to get published with the Big 5 publishers. I'd try Baen, or some other smaller publisher, or just self publish on Amazon.
That kid is already permanently broken, and his immediate family is who broke him. Deport them all to Congo.
Remember that Elon is suing Media Matters, and will more than likely own the place when he wins. All I see here is justification to bring even more lawsuits against Media Matters.
They just can't stop defaming people, and it will lead to their demise.
From what I could see, there were 4 of them, and yes, they are reasonably competent with their gear, but in a two way gun fight, their lack of numbers mean they get squashed like a grape anyway.
They will not have any popular support, and their lifestyle makes it impossible to blend in with the general population, so they will be easy to find.
Yes they did.
Vancover WA is right across the river from Portland, and has seen significant Antifa activity in the past. WA is totally vote by mail, has been for 20 years.
50 years ago a woman having a hysteronic fit like that would get the pimp hand to reset the CPU.
The View is just a parody now. If you ever run into some woman who watches it and takes it seriously they need to be cunt punched.
Thank Infinity Ward, they started the matchmaking/lobby trend with Modern Warfare 2 circa 2009. It raised a minor uproar at the time, and I haven't bought a Modern Warfare title since them.
Chivalry wasn't just rules for men, it had a code of conduct for women, too.
Women threw that off 50 years ago.
Men will not play the game of heads you win, tails I loose any more.
Embrace the unifying power of the word "and."
Fascism is an authoritarian system of government that feature a powerful central government that heavily restricts speech, has a command economy, secret police that persecutes dissidents, and vests large amounts of political power in one singular strongman leader.
Nothing the left every says about "fascism" bears any resemblance to this, and can be dismissed out of hand if they do not comport to this central definition.
"Fascism" was turned into a morality argument from the moment Germany surrendered in 1945. The true meaning and definition of this system of government is not taught in primary education deliberately so as to preserve the loaded morality baked into the modern use of the term.
The "diversity" the left wants is the same rigidly enforced ideological dogma in different colored and shaped packages.
Yes, the 19th Amendment was a mistake, one of a series of them in the early 20th century. 16th (power to lay income taxes), 17th (popular elections of US Senators), and 18th Amendments (prohibition) were (18th) and still are disasters, too.
I don't think importing a used car made and sold overseas has tariffs applied. JDM cars imported here don't have tariffs, AFAIK, just local sales taxes. Tariffs would apply to new cars built overseas but intended to be sold here.
The threat of tariffs in the 1980s are why Japanese car manufacturers have production plants in the US now. If they build their cars here, no tariffs.
Imports from China has long needed wage and environmental law arbitrage tariffs , for two decades or more. They rob us blind while polluting the hell out of their country and working their people literally to death, and this is without even getting into their total disregard for intellectual property or the organized crime family that is the CCP.
