Its naive to believe that under Trump anything has changed about the US government's approach to the Saudi's. What may have changed is the public's perception of the arrangement. Because anything Trump does requires more inspection, criticism, and scrutiny. It doesn't matter that his predecessors have engaged in the exact same arrangement. The US, under both Republican and Democratic administrations, has supported the Saudi monarchy for over 60 years. Because of oil.

Would the Democrats consider it an illegal order if Trump directed American military forces to shoot American citizens that we're infected during a zombie apocalypse and transformed into the walking dead?

No. I saw the news of drought conditions in coffee growing areas of Brazil late last year then waited for a sale at the local Super Market and stocked up on about a 3 year supply. Sorry to say the blame for higher prices is weather not politics.

Under attack, for example, from government collusion with and coercing of social media platforms to censor views and opinions deemed critical of the regime? What you're glossing over is the fact Democrats under the Biden administration threw the first punch in the effort to suppress free of speech. Add in deploying street goons to inflict violence on those participating in protests and events where the exercise of free speech is attacked and you've got all that authoritarian crap the liberal cult complains about.

Perhaps everything is not always about Trump as you believe? And moving Maxwell to a minimum security facility is in part so the chances of her "committing suicide" like her boss are less likely? I'm going to take a wild guess and conclude she knows a lot more about the "clients" than what has already been said.

You're being irrational. Rather than parallels its most likely confirmation bias in interpreting events from afar. And seriously, how can we trust the judgment of people that believed Joe Biden was of sound mind and body when it was obvious through simple observation that he wasn't?

I support Trump's position and actions on some issues and not others. This is one where I don't. He could issue an executive order declassifying everything and instruct the DOJ and FBI to release everything while redacting the identities of the victims. While we're at it he could declassify files on the Russia collusion hoax and the J6 riots. Out the FBI and other federal agencies on how many employees and assets where in the crowd along with the purpose. Give us the official records why the NG wasn't called up. And settle the story on guys like Ray Epps and whether or not he was a government asset. Why won't he? There are many theories. One is the Trumpenstein theory purposed by a guy named Donald Jefferies. In summary this theorizes Trump is in reality a "Trojan Horse" deep state plant. If anything its a semi-amusing read. https://donaldjeffries.substack.com/p/trumpenstein-and-the-death-of-politics

Why doesn't Trump schedule a TV address to the nation and spill all the beans on the Epstein operation directly to the public and forget about having to rely on Congress?

I'm sold on the idea they need to go with the "Josh Allen experience" every game from here to the end of the season. If they go back to slow paced milk the clock and limit drive count Brady ball game management on offense on Thursday they're going to lose something like 27-10 to the Texans. Because this defense as its playing now can't stop anyone and is still going to give up points. So instead win 37-27.

I'm resigned to the reality the answer to the Bills defensive woes is not on the roster. And all the tinkering and additions Beane and McDermott have made since day one of their regime hasn't resulting in any significant improvements in the defense. Without turnovers its bottom third in the league. Clearly after 8 seasons they have failed. Getting a few players healthy is going to help but it's going to be marginal improvement. Protecting this defense by playing McDermott's slow-ball run focused offense isn't going to work against the better teams in the league. And in practice playing slow and draining clock is not how to utilize the league MVP. What we saw yesterday, an up tempo attacking offense is the blueprint going forward. Put up as many points as possible and put the stress on the opponents offense to keep up and play a game they either can't or don't want to play. This provides the best situation for the opponent to make mistakes and errors our defense should be able to capitalize on. I wasn't completely sold on the idea the Bills need to go balls-to-the-wall on offense to score 30 to 40 a game to win but with this defense it looks like there's no other way.

Earlier tonight Trump apparently reversed course and urged House Republicans to vote for releasing all the files on Epstien.

We need to channel some positive energy and all think 3 and out or better yet TO.

Another FS on 73.

How any RB and WR have had career games against McD's defense?

Both poor on that. Milano was late in recognition and drop and Poyer is slow and as a result was forced to take a bad angle.

Where there's a will there's a way. Anyone incapable of budgeting about $250 a week for food needs to spend a little time to learn how to manage money properly. A few hints. Use manufacturer and store coupons, focus on sale items, avoid certain high priced items, don't buy what you don't need or will waste. That's what we do and it works.

The House vote to order release of all is due next week. Expect it to pass. The Senate, who knows? A Trump veto will result in most of his supporters jumping ship if they haven't already.

He may be the defacto protector of the secrets of the rich and famous but this is about more than Trump. This is about keeping the secret arrangements and mechanisms of powerful and wealthy under the covers. Revealing all of this would vaporize the illusions that are fed to the public. Let's not forget how Patel and Bongino came into the job guns blazing vowing to reveal and address all and so far have done less than nothing.

I more or less agree here. What I don't get is these rich and powerful men didn't need Epstien to supply them with women. They had the means to do that alone. Why get involved with the guy? They could have kept their obsessions out of the light. What was Epstiens angle? Did the wealthy "Johns" pay him or compensate him with favors? What exactly? How was all this funded like the private jet and island? I know Epstien was involved in investment banking before his operation. The media and everyone else is focused on the who while there is close to zero interest in the why and how. I think answering the why and how are the questions and answers the government is worried about shedding light on. Because it's likely an intelligence operation that once revealed will take us down the rabbit hole of the political underworld.

Someone or something? Israel.

He's using gmail to communicate with Russian officials? If you want everyone to know your business that's the way to go. If you didn't know it Google and other service providers share all your e-mails, phone calls, social media posts, and text messages that flow through their operation with the NSA and other intelligence agencies. And all that stuff everyone claims is erased or deleted, they have it.

There are certain academic and course requirements for every degree. These are set by educators and others with experience in the specific field. Computer Science is not different. But I don't recall every needing any skills related to astrophysics in software development. The unemployment rate for recent computer science graduates is 6.1%. So there's no shortage of available American workers. The other aspect of the business is outsourcing. Which has eliminated more American jobs than any visa program. https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/international/us/gen-z-unemployment-rate-2025-computer-science-grads-face-one-of-the-highest-unemployment-rates-today-latest-job-market-news/articleshow/123418021.cms As the job market tightens the arguments for continuing to import large number of workers because of lack of domestic supply weakens.

I disagree. I've worked in the technology space most of my life in three different industries. At least in the tech space, the main objective of H1-B visa program is to bring cheaper labor into the country. Same as letting in all the illegals for low wage jobs. Unemployment among recent CS degree college graduates armed with the latest skills is high. And if these new graduates don't have the skills then what exactly are the specific skill sets Trump is referring to and why aren't universities and technical schools teaching the required skill sets?

I expect there are challenges to having a bi-coastal marriage to a "Hollywood" wife with her own career ambitions and goals. She's not going to play the role of the good star football player's wife running cookie sales or clothing drives for the community. Add in all of Allen's off field activities, appearances, commercials, interviews, more or less celebrity status after winning the MVP. It all adds up to a lot of distractions. On top of all that, he's experienced and smart enough to understand the shortcomings of the team and where things are headed. A likely wild card playoff spot and an early exit from the tournament. I'd love it this off season if he wakes up to the fact that half his career is past and demands the front office does the things most posters and observers of the team see as obvious flaws that need to be fixed if they want to make it to and win a Super Bowl. Let's start with getting some play making and impact receivers.

It is revolutionary in the sense that previous technology enabled enhancements to productivity resulting in workers being able to produce greater output then before. AI results in enhanced productivity while eliminating workers. The primary issue is all of the benefits of AI go to the owners of capital and all the costs and consequence go to labor. Millions will lose their jobs. The standard response from proponents of AI is the unemployed will work in "new" industries and jobs created as a result of AI without being able to articulate or speculate on what those new industries and jobs will be. Meanwhile, vast quantities of finite resources, water, natural gas, electricity, other materials are being allocated to this sector which will result in even greater costs to be borne by the have-nots. So far the focus has been to develop and deploy the technology as fast as possible and ignore any consequences to workers or society and civilization. The end goal being to produce an army of robot "slaves" to do the bidding of capitalists. Creating a class of 21st century slave owning plantations. A pretty dark vision for the future. I think it goes far beyond universal income. I'll speculate the party that seizes the high ground on the view that AI benefits and costs need to be managed and controlled and distributed equally for the good of all of society, not just wealthy tech moguls and their companies at the expense of everyone else will gain the upper hand winning a majority. Maybe as soon as 2026. My guess is the Democrats will embrace the issue as the Republicans are bit slow to catch on to the pulse of change going on here and generally this administration is adverse to taking on business interests.
