Kind of… the issue is conflicts like this are very costly and damaging to the economy.

Thankfully so far China has behaved a bit more rationally than belligerent states like the USA and Russia who are willing to do considerable damage to their own and world economies in an attempt to strengthen their military position. Which makes little sense in a mostly peaceful era. Economic and diplomatic power are more important in the long term, and they’re trading that away.

So I predict they will not do it even though you’re right that they theoretically could because the smart move is to keep growing your power base. China could be in a class of its own someday if they are smart enough, and then they’ll be able to force Taiwanese submission without even invading.

I wish it was just boomers…

In the recent Santa Monica incident, for example, the Waymo vehicle braked hard before impact — resulting in a “significant reduction in impact speed and severity” that the company said “is a demonstration of the material safety benefit of the Waymo Driver.”

In other words, when our product functions as intended, we expect it to kill some number of children.

Cars cannot be made safe despite what the snake oil salesmen will tell you. The future is not driverless cars, but careless drivers.

Oh I get it. Cheeky.

Ok… are you saying they got the wrong guy or what?

We’ll see. The evidence here seems pretty strong. I don’t see how it could be disputed.

Did you actually read the article? This is nothing like the Franken situation.

She was raped and many people corroborated her story, including contemporaneous notes in her medical chart.

Seems very detailed and well-corroborated. I’m surprised he’s denying it given all the evidence but I guess maybe he feels it’s his only option.

Hard to see how this doesn’t sink him though, thankfully.

There’s still a lot of Catholics in the movement.

Well I doubt this woman voted for anyone since she has no legal status.

Despicable. But very naive that she went into the office to try to sort this out in person. Should have sent a lawyer instead. I guess some people don’t follow the news very closely.

I thought those were all just reskinned versions of safari on iOS. Or am I wrong?

I’m aware of it but I’ve never tried it. Does it work on iOS?

That will be the day I finally never return. Old Reddit kinda sucks but it’s still miles better than the modern abomination.

It says part of CBP. Implying part will be funded.

What part of the CBP is being funded?

I have a compromise… get rid of birthright citizenship… and every other kind too.

Maybe give it a different title and share it and watch chaos ensue?

In an interview with ABC’s “This Week,” Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said that Democrats view the long lines as “leverage” for their demands of change.

“Democrats want to see long lines at airports as leverage. President Trump’s trying to take that leverage away and not make the American people suffer,” Duffy said.

This strategy doesn’t make sense to me. Wouldn’t Trump want disruption to blame on congressional democrats? Or is the assumption the American people will always blame the president?

I would think if they’re able to keep government functions going without funding DHS then it will just prove to people that there was never any need to fund it.

God I hate these people so much.
