I’d say Buchanan still wins. Saw the Civil War coming and basically stood back and let it happen. Was even sympathetic with slaveholders and the South in general even though he was from Pennsylvania.

But I hope to see the day sentiment finally changes and Reagan joins the worst Presidents list.

Balance. It’s perfectly fine to realize when you’re too far in either direction.

Of course they censored it. Can’t stand being reminded why they’re tankies.

Note 4 is also my vote. It set the standard for a while and no phone I’ve owned since was as great a leap from previous generations.

A Republican is grand standing about information he’s being briefed on during a meeting scheduled for tomorrow.

So my Spidey sense says no. There is no reason to do what Turner did today. Unless you’re an idiot. Or you want to indirectly tell people such a briefing is happening.

Lately it means they tried, failed, but want people to think they’re still as capable as the Soviet Union. Which they aren’t. Haven’t been for decades. Much of Soviet engineering might came from Ukraine. It’s part of why Pootin so desperately wants to subjugate them again.

A guy showing up to a trade show doesn’t mean the whole country supports genocide.

You’d realize how dumb this assertion was if you had any clue how trade shows work.

And? Why would they receive the grants before conditions are met?

Are you suggesting these corporations should be given the benefits without doing anything?

So far, yeah. They already have a significant US operation in New Hampshire that’s being expanded and upgraded. It shouldn’t be a surprise such a company met the US production requirements first because military hardware contracts require significant levels of domestic content to begin with that BAE already meets.

Other applicants are having to establish whole new operations in the US for the first time ever. That takes a while. This kind of manufacturing needs a bit more than 4 walls, a roof, and some machines.

Grant announcements for Intel shouldn’t be too far out. Their plan is for a whole new plant which requires more planning than the route BAE went with.

They’re a .ml account. Their whole purpose for posting is to argue in bad faith and push BRICS propaganda.

TSA is a jobs program. It will never go away at this point.

Mountain biking. Especially if you have a local organization for trail management. They’re almost always looking for volunteers.

You’ll have the biking, being active outdoors, some hiking for trail management, typically some fund raising events, bike maintenance/repair workshops, community rides and potentially more depending on the size of the group.

Good variety of activity from solo riding to big social gatherings. And I’ve found it a much more chill group of people than road bikers. And it doesn’t really require the super expensive $2k+ bikes some people opt for. My current ride is at about $700 all in and does everything I need it to do.

Not automatically. States have the authority to run their own elections. But this would set precedent for others to follow.

lol swipe must have boomed me. But that does make it funny.

Older gentleman walked into the lobby of our office. None of us knew who he was or had seen him before. He looked confused and lost. Someone went over to ask if they could help him. He tried to but didn’t respond. Then fell over. Hit his head on a table on the way down. Was dead before the pandemics arrived.

We were all in shock. Poor guy was starting into a stroke when he walked in. Maybe even walked into our office to try getting help. But it was already too late.

I get the intent here, but it’s a really bad comparison. It’s certainly easy to get confused about without base level awareness of finance and accounting things.

The DoD is a government cost center. It doesn’t generate revenue. Therefore nothing to tax. Meaning nothing for the IRS to audit.

That’s why the federal government has other audit authorities and often contracts independent auditors to help. Those people are auditing department spending and assets related though. This type of audit is not to check if taxes are owed. It’s more like making sure the department bank account is correct to keep this simple.
