I think this election will show a slow realignment of Arabs and Muslims toward Republicans.
Probably going to be a line between Arabs/Muslims who feel economically secure and those who don’t. The racism and Islamaphobia are pretty well entrenched to the point of being foundational in the US right and I don’t think that’s ever going to change.
If its not economic what actually is there to attract Muslim or Arab voters to the Republican party or American conservatism?
They could have hand picked the most friendly, least controversial speaker
Pretty sure I heard the speaker give their speech on some other outlet and it was pretty tame and lib. The speaker already was friendly uncontroversial.
Edit: Monero will never have over 1% inflation again
Inflation on the crypto transaction charges, right?
So how do you get your physical cash into a digital crypto currency without having a bank account to turn your cash into digital cash or a place to hold your crypto currency as cash when you need to buy groceries or something?

I absolutely don’t trust parking my car under this.
That would be funny if all the justices got got by this. Just having the SC have zero justices on the bench for any amount of time would be a funny thing to happen while I’m alive.
feels like a bait post
figure out a way to enact his popular policies
Shouldn’t… shouldn’t he be trying to enact policies that the Democratic party supporters, progressives, liberals want? That seems to be what’s sinking his re-election chances.
People don’t want the genocide in Palestine to continue, but Joe is going to keep it going.
People don’t want the USA to keep getting in the way of Russia and Ukraine ending the war there but Joe seems to be fine keeping it going.
People in general are pretty cool with transgender people getting proper healthcare throughout their lives. Biden’s administration puts out messaging saying that trans healthcare is harmful to trans people so its okay to limit or ban it.
People are okay with abortion services being a thing. Biden is a pro-life candidate and hasn’t really been doing anything to codify abortion services into any federal law.
People would like more affordable electric commuter vehicles. Biden’s administration tariffs the shit out of Chinese manufactured electric vehicles available for import with some weak argument about it being “unfair.”
There’s probably more examples but shrugs its not like Biden is going to do anything. Waiting until the last few months before elections to suddenly put out messaging about changing how the supreme court is staffed instead of doing it almost four years ago when everybody was talking about how Trump got to pack the SC with only the ripest of reactionary picks and all the ways Biden could curb the effect the SC has on US politics/laws, feels too much like closing the barn doors after all the animals have got loose.
Turns out my browser script blocker was keeping the full thing from loading. smacks self in forehead
Huh… anybody have a link to the full research paper and not just the pay walled abstract?
It allows all the campaign cash currently raised for Biden to be used without trying to funnel some of it through a PAC that isn’t supposed to have direct contact with the campaign its playing with money for.
Axelrod predicted that Biden wouldn’t be inclined to leave the race, noting that “this is a guy with a lot of pride … who believes in himself.”
Just pulling another Ruth Bader Ginsburg and making it all about themselves, Democratic party stay winning.
As everybody knows, the average American’s excess savings are stored in the balls. And it now looks like, the balls have run dry.
Its okay, the UK has a spare.
When you hit the “Olde Fortran” too hard one night.
Sometimes people celebrate the death of horrific and oppressive people. That’s not necessarily a bad thing.
First sentence might have been fine, its the second one that probably was a “foot in the hornets nest.”
the moment of the Butlerian Jihad comes one step closer
So just when Hunter is facing two criminal trials starting in a few weeks, he has no resources.
Oh… I so wanna see the right/well connected have to rely on a public defender.
there are concerns about how Biden will pay for expert witnesses to testify for him at his Delaware trial.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
As the hearing opened, Lowell told Judge Maryellen Noreika that for the first time in his long career, he wasn’t ready for a trial to start. He noted the complexity of Biden’s legal situation: two trials looming within weeks of each other, and appeals proceedings already underway in both jurisdictions.
Come on… there’s no way that this lawyer didn’t see this coming and was just wanting to milk this cash cow for as long as possible (currently four years and counting).
Experts who testify for defendants at trials can bill $500 per hour or more for their work. They can rebut the analysis that government experts provide about evidence presented at trial.
Tell me what I want, what I really really want! I’ll tell you what you want, what you really really want! You gotta pay, you gotta pay, you gotta pay, you gotta pay, You gotta pay me 500 bucks in USA now…
It’s not clear how much Lowell, or the other lawyers working on Biden’s cases, are charging for their services. In other recent cases, Lowell has sought fees of $855 per hour and over $1,500 per hour.
Hunter needs to get another job sitting on the board of a Ukrainian company, STAT!
Berges also told lawmakers he stopped representing Biden last year.
“From a business perspective, it hasn’t been the best decision for me,” he said.
Got that bag, time to split!
More please!
Jo Miran, seems pretty on the nose with what the USA was wanting at the start of the SMO.
Now, the USA just wants it to stop.
Damn… reality needs to stop making my Uncle Ted right about things…
