We stop the horrors by placing stipulations on the aid we supply the Israelis. We stop turning a blind eye to how their extreme right wing factions like Netanyahu's Likud party use our money and military resources. The United States, Europe and most of Asia are against settlements within Palestinian territories but each year right wing politicians allow or even encourage taking over more and more land. Plenty of Israeli citizens are against the settlements and against the Netanyahu regime so let's work with them to make decisions that aren't so obviously provocative to both their neighbors as well as the minority Israeli citizens who also live there. Let's not pretend Netanyahu's do whatever he pleases policies aren't a big part of the anger and aggression we are seeing year after year. Our aid and financial support should be 100% conditional.

My point was that a transmitter would be easily detectable.

I am fully against this booby trapping war crime regime but the problem with your first options is that pagers don't transmit like phones do. That means there would be no way to remotely aquire the GPS or other saved data undetected.

Insurance transition from protection against highly unlikely emergencies to our default payment system is the biggest scam in world history.

The Samsung keyboard definitely looks better but underperforms both gboard & SwiftKey when it comes to swipe typing, auto correction and spelling. I very much wish it was the best because I'm getting tired of the other two trying to force AI features on their keyboards.

I'm fairly certain it's getting worse.

Unless we're disallowing guns in video games, movies, books, plays or on the internet in general then this is a waste of time.

I had an ex who insisted on this setup. Apparently Kitchenaid has somehow been able to convince people this is an decorative status symbol. As an appliance I've never seen one in action and I've seen many of them.

My aim is to replace Biden with someone who can actually win. Bidens team is on the offensive trying to claim he's got the best shot but that's a load of hot garbage. I think you'd be surprised at how many people voted for anything not trump last time around. This time around his cognitive decline has become so blatantly obvious that by even defending it you destroy the democratic party's credibility and as a result become Trumps real enabler. The election will be decided by a few swing states and a small number of undecided voters living in those states. Telling them they are wrong about what the see and hear from Biden is gaslighting plain and simple. If democrats want to differentiate themselves as the morally superior party then lying out of fear isn't a good look. The situation is what it is. The best chance they have is to replace Biden as soon as possible. Every day that passes decreases the nominees chances. Also, I really hope they hold a primary vote because just telling voters they get Vice President Harris makes this feel less like a democracy and will definitely alienate enough voters to throw the whole election.

Final thought, as long as we have a two party system nothing will really get better. The best we can hope for is not worse. It's very telling that so many democratic congress people are afraid to challenge the party. If an elected representative is afraid to act on their conscience then it's obvious we don't have a real democracy.

He's only working on that particular old man's OS.

Ya know he may be working angle here. His whole life is over and he knows it. I'll bet he figures if he goes crazy all in on Trump that maybe he could land some political support in getting his conviction overturned if Trump wins the election. Considering his current situation its probably the only chance he has.
