Frankly, I'm surprised he doesn't just demand that all billionaires turn over their stock shares to him, making him the richest person in the world, and the world's first trillionaire.
(I double-dog dare him to)
(DO IT, YOU COWARD!)
You certainly have tales to tell!
There'd be no US bond market. All of us with US bonds wouldn't have them any more. That would eliminate the safest long-term investment option for everyone.
Internationally, that would also hurt the power of the US dollar, further weakening America's influence.
I know I'm a day late, but this video is absolute fire and EVERYBODY should watch all 92 minutes of it.

I wonder what percentage of the usual far-right agitators/terrorists are in ICE now.
Like, once this is all over and we've dealt with all the ICE members properly, will there even be anyone left in the Proud Boys, 3%ers, Patriot Front, etc?
I agree. I'd love a simple legal process for challenging lies that doesn't lead to years-long lawsuits.
Like, if someone lies, you can challenge them with evidence, and if they can't back up their lies, they have to issue a retraction.
If they can back it up, it's not a lie, and they can keep it.
It's why we have libel/defamation laws.
Social media companies (and ISPs) don't want to be held to account for what people post using their services, and that's fine. It's what Section 230 is there to protect.
But if they choose to promote certain content, they are not longer just hosts.
If social media companies weren't explicitly pushing specific content, they wouldn't have a problem as they'd be covered by Section 230.
When they pick and choose what to promote, they act like editors at newspapers, which is why newspapers are careful about what they publish.
Yes, for all the *actual* lies promoted by social media companies, he absolutely could.
If the social media companies weren't using algorithms to promote lies, then there wouldn't be a case. But because they make money on 'engagement' they have incentive to.
I'm not calling for a repeal. I'm just calling for the appropriate application of the law.
Section 230 is intended to protect hosts from libel/etc lawsuits when people post things to their platforms.
But if they promote the lies, they then take ownership of them, and should be legally accountable.
How so?
Social media companies hide behind Section 230 and then push propaganda, pretending that all of that propaganda isn't coming from them but rather from the people posting on their site, and thus they aren't running afoul of Section 230's limitations.
If "local police" are going to sit on their hands and do nothing while armed gangs are roaming the streets attacking and murdering people, what's the point of "local police"?
When even their own officers get attacked by these gangs and they won't act, why do we even have them?
I said none of the things argued in that article.
A least one thing:
Actively apply Section 230 the way it was written.
If social media uses algorithms to push stories, they are no longer neutral, and thus should no longer be covered by Section 230 protections.
My family name dies with me.
There's a lot of ... not great content in IDW's run. But MtMtE and LL are amazing (and are the titles where you get Autobot Megatron).
I hope Americans remember that the entire Republican party is ready to allow WW3 to happen just to avoid having to stand up to Trump.
A maze where half the walls a filled with one color and the other half filled with another, making the solution to the maze obvious.
Meanwhile, any image editing program can solve it with a single click of the fill tool.
It won't happen until they start really feeling it in their pocketbooks.
Nobody should.

How soon until ICE agents shoot up a school?
I wonder what future historians will decide was the start of WW3.
Russia's invasion of Ukraine?
China's invasion of Taiwan?
Trump's invasion of Greenland?
🤔
Their escalations in MN might be shortening that timeline.
Apparently, for more accuracy, they should have drawn a baby piglet.
This is why I think this won't end until they go too far for even the far-right to tolerate.
And that's a long ways yet to go.
Real question:
How do we enforce the laws that they are all breaking if they are the ones that hold a monopoly on all the violence?
Who's going to arrest the police/ICE/DHS/etc?
The car only "sped away" because the driver was already dead.
Plus, the shooter wasn't even in front of the car when he fired. He was standing to the side of the driver-side wheel when he leaned over the hood and fired his gun (sideways) into the windshield.
Then stood upright and fired again through the open driver-side window.
