If only law-abiding Montanans had access to firearms, this could have been avoided

shooting at a local dive bar in a small Montana town killed four people, prompting a manhunt for the gunman that has stretched into the weekend and rattled residents.

The authorities identified Michael Brown, 45, as a suspect in the shooting that took place on Friday morning. It was the deadliest in Montana since 2015. Mr. Brown is an Army veteran who has struggled with mental health issues, according to his relatives, and lived close to the bar.

The violent attack rocked the town, Anaconda, a tightly knit community in Deer Lodge County. Some people said they would now lock their doors at night for the first time in years; others said they would carry firearms for protection.

Sounds like Trump & Rubio got a triple murderer freed from a Venezuelan prison

Posted by ATL <iframe src='https://mb.boardhost.com/TheDeuce/info/user=ATL' width='330' height='300' border=0 style='border:none;'> on August 1, 2025, 19:41:12, in reply to "Thread for all the dumb political shit this week, July 28th."

By the time the United States was extracting a group of Americans and legal U.S. residents from a prison in Venezuela last month, some State Department officials had come to an uncomfortable realization.

One of the prisoners had been convicted of murdering three people in Spain in 2016. And soon he would be on his way home, having his photo taken alongside those deemed by the United States to have been wrongfully imprisoned in Venezuela.

…

Mr. Hanid Ortiz, 54, a citizen of the United States and Venezuela, is now living as a free man in the United States, according to two people with knowledge of the case.

A 19-year U.S. Army veteran who served for a year in Iraq, Mr. Hanid Ortiz was expelled from the military after pleading guilty to fraud and larceny.
In 2016, according to Venezuelan court documents, he sought to kill a lawyer in Madrid who he believed had a relationship with his wife. When he arrived at the lawyer’s office he killed two women there, as well as a man he mistakenly believed was the lawyer.

The deaths were violent, according to an extradition request by the Spanish government that was included in the Venezuelan records. One woman was killed with a large knife or machete. Another was likely killed with an iron bar. Afterward, Mr. Hanid Ortiz fled to Germany and eventually to Venezuela.

mostly with long range missiles and Shahed-136 drone variants. i think the Russian version is called a Geran.

The Shahed and other type of one way attack drones are only controlled pre flight by way point and altitude programming. once they are in the air they can't do any kind of evasive maneuver and they fly slow (around 100 mph), so they are much easier to shoot down. they are cheap, cost estimates vary from $25,000 to $50,000 per unit. the Russians put a lot of them in the air at a time attempting to overwhelm UKR air defenses.

First, it seems like there are often pretty substantial adjustments of initial numbers, both up and down, given the uncertainties in estimating employment numbers quickly. And I’d guess those adjustments will be larger going forward, since from reports I’ve seen the government’s data collection and analysis capacity has been significantly decreased from the Administration’s cuts.

And lastly, if they really were trying to game the numbers, then they’d probably apply the same political controls to follow on updates.

Edit: you’d also probably get leaks and newspaper reports if they were deliberately falsifying these reports.

Alan Dershowitz said he is suing a Martha’s Vineyard food vendor who refused to serve the former Harvard Law professor pierogi because of his politics.

Dershowitz, a former Democrat who represented President Donald Trump in the first impeachment trial, has frequently lamented his pariah status on Martha’s Vineyard, the posh vacation spot for the wealthy and often liberal.

On Wednesday, Dershowitz posted on X and said he is suing the “bigoted vendor.”

I don't think the creators of the campaign are trying to advance a Nazi agenda. Either they have the media literacy of a typical American, and were therefore ignorant of the optics, or they were counting on the publicity bump they'd get from the controversy.

i'm not arguing that the intent was to suggest eugenics or nazi tropes. but they likely did consider factors to increase publicity, including tapping into existing right/left conflicts that Sweeney was already a part of.

i'm guessing the marketing team expected the genes wordplay to possibly generate buzz about her mom's 2022 bday party photos with "Make Sixty Great Again" red hats, which had a bunch of social traffic and created "news."

I would have assumed that wordplay about having a thin waist and gigantic funbags was the point*

And saying it treats non-white people as less than human.

When the ad first dropped I thought it was a nothing burger. Then I saw a bunch of the online left push that it was fascist and Nazism which I thought was dumb and would be contained but it soon broke containment.

It's certainly something that exists. I mean it even exists in this subthread.

And some point the democratic party is gonna have to try to stem the tide. They'll win elections this upcoming midterms because Trump is so chaotic and the people will want some obstacles to him but long term it looks really bad. They are getting crushed on men 18-49 and the only cohort they win with is 18-49 women. Every other group is basically a tie or GOP win.

On Monday, the European Commission spent the day briefing journalists to defend the deal as an anchor of stability and predictability in troubled times, a pill that is hard to swallow but necessary to avoid a havoc-wreaking tariff war across the Atlantic.
Then the story took a new twist when the White House published a fact sheet about the agreement with multiple claims that mismatched or downright contradicted the version of events presented by the Commission just hours earlier.

Fox Business guy asked if the decision not to lower somehow gives companies cover to raise prices (question makes no sense, this guy is obviously stupid).

Anyway, Powell says no, the tariffs themselves give companies cover to raise prices and gives an example from Trump's first administration.

His tariffs last time were orders of magnitude lower.

When tariffs are imposed, companies will first take the his to earnings. You see that happening now. Then, when it becomes prolonged, companies begin to raise prices as they watch what other competitors are doing. A little at a time; watch, wait, let prices increases dribble out, with as little attention paid to it by politicians and the public as possible. Increase the money supply, and prices go up faster and higher.

But the case it cites doesn't say that! It's from an "assuming arguendo" type footnote.

But even assuming financial institutions like the Second Bank and the Federal Reserve can claim a special historical status , the CFPB is in an entirely different league. It acts as a mini legislature, prosecutor, and court, responsible for creating substantive rules for a wide swath of industries, prosecuting violations, and levying knee-buckling penalties against private citizens. See supra, at 2192-2193. And, of course, it is the only agency of its kind run by a single Director."

https://www.politico.com/news/2025/07/26/democrats-approval-rating-poll-00478141?_native_ads=1&font_scale=1.0

"Only 33 percent of voters hold a favorable view of Democrats, with a meager 8 percent holding a “very favorable” opinion, for a net negative favorability of 30 percentage points.

While voters still have significant concerns over the president’s and the Republican Party’s handling of the economy, inflation, tariffs and foreign policy, the majority of respondents nonetheless say they trust Republicans more to handle those issues in Congress.

Despite criticism of the administration’s handling of inflation — disapproval outweighed approval by 11 points in the poll — the Republican Party, by 10 points, is trusted more than Democrats to deal with inflation."

"“The Democratic brand is so bad that they don’t have the credibility to be a critic of Trump or the Republican Party,” Anzalone told the newspaper. “Until they reconnect with real voters and working people on who they’re for and what their economic message is, they’re going to have problems.”"

Wild to me that changing your political views over a 25 year span is some sort of gotcha- FOR DETLEF

Posted by VIV <iframe src='https://mb.boardhost.com/TheDeuce/info/user=VIV' width='330' height='300' border=0 style='border:none;'> on July 29, 2025, 13:24:48, in reply to "they're even worse than libertarians *"

But since you want to continue to bring it up, let's talk about it.

In short, I've changed some and the Libertarian party has changed some, so I no longer fit best with what they choose to platform.

I was 20 the first time I voted in a Presidential election. It was 2000 and I voted for (how's your) Harry Browne. I was fresh off of reading The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged and I had a rather narrow view of the world. A wildly positive reading could see it as "idealistic", but a fairer accounting would call it "naive." To be clear, I'm not saying all Libertarians are naive, I'm saying I was.

My personal philosophy was (and generally still is- but we'll get to that later) socially liberal and fiscally conservative. In 2000, that's what the Libertarian party roughly claimed to be. I wanted small government, free market capitalism, low taxes, personal freedom, pro-choice, equal rights for all including LGBT, decriminalization of drugs, end to foreign entanglements. It's an easy, comfortable position for a white guy from the suburbs getting a good college education to take.

Since 2000, I have changed some opinions. I've kept some the same. The biggest changes come from personal interactions. Notably, I've seen people go bankrupt because they got cancer. I've had friends go to Iraq and Afghanistan and come back broken physically and mentally and get shitty help from the country that sent them there. I've actually talked with immigrants (ILLEGALS!!!!!) who are just here so their kids will have a better life than the shitty one they had when they were young. I've had LGBT friends move from a red state to a blue state because they're worried they'll lose spousal rights. And on a petty personal level, I've blown out like 4 tires because of potholes because our roads are so shittty.

So, while I do generally still favor a smaller government, I do think if we're paying into this place, we should focus on things in a more utilitarian manner. We shouldn't spend as much on military as the next 13 highest nations combined. We especially shouldn't do so when we services we get from the country (education, healthcare, infrastructure, public safety) don't keep pace with other first world countries. I think it's possible to both cut taxes and better serve the citizens. I'm happy to discuss any of those points further, should you like. And make no mistake, I'm still a free market capitalist at heart. That doesn't mean we eschew all social programs. I bought the "but those are socialism" lines when I was younger. Not anymore. We've got socialist programs all over our government that are perfectly fine with.

I also no longer identify with Libertarians because the Tea Party movement flooded the party with people who were unabashedly conservatives who just didn't like the Republican label. The socially liberal end of the party was essentially cut out and replaced with people with fundamentally silly ideas of what a government is and isn't, arguing all the way down to the now infamous consent age and fire department discussions.

At that point I was left with the neoliberal D party (socially liberal, fiscally too liberal for my tastes), the R party (socially conservative with a Theocratic bent, pretends to be fiscally conservative but actually outspends the Ds and now dangerously populist with a smattering of fascism), and a Tea Party L party. So, WTF do I do as a voter? For me, if they're all going to overspend, I'd rather they overspend on things I think are worthwhile. I'd rather my government not harass people just trying to live their lives in peace.

I know you have the ability to not just speak in catchphrases. we've actually had conversations before. so, if you'd like to respond with something that's actually thought out, that would be cool. if not, well, that's your prerogative.

"the sum value of my outfit will always be higher than yours."

Silly VIV, growing up and changing your opinions based on your life experiences is for losers.

More people favor the GOP on issues and more people now call themselves Republicans than in years past.

People just don’t like Trump and think he’s too chaotic. The reason they’re more likely to vote for Dems is stability, but people think the Dems are worse on the issues and moved too far left.
