The East Wing argument is such a weird hill to die on. Even Obama era staffers admitted it was embarrassing to welcome foreign dignitaries to a muddy patch of grass rather than a fit for purpose room. It's also majority private sector

They're actually ramping back up on AWS after Azure failed to scale to their needs. They planned to be fully off AWS in 2027 but they're continuing to ramp usage. Azure doesn't scale.

Life expectancy is a function of demographics, which averages ignore. Income is also an assertion not supported by data. For simple procedures such as a knee or hip replacement, many people earning under $80K CAD opt for US treatment. Likel

You're being dishonest if you claim otherwise. UK brain surgeons get paid less than a Walmart general manager in the United States, let alone a like for like comparison.

The insurance companies had substantial input to the specific text of the ACA. I'm not sure how you can imply the ACA was not a BigCorp bill when BigCorp wrote it. It's also well known from leaks that the first Obama administratio

A vehicle is a deadly weapon. Would you personally accelerate against a police vehicle with active lights that is conducting a traffic stop on you? Accelerating towards law enforcement is a deadly threat. If he's willing to threaten th

Huh? Did you watch the video? Not only do you hear his car revving, but you see the law enforcement vehicle repeatedly shift backwards as he rams it. At 0:45 you see and hear him hit the vehicle, rev and the crunch of him accelerating again

Seems totally legit! Harris+Biden spent $770M on TV ads while Trump spent $350M. How about 2016? Clinton spent $400M on TV ads while Trump spent $125M. How'd that go for them? Really seeing those double digit improvements.

TV is dead so who cares if it consolidates. In fact, consolidation is probably the only way it staves off complete collapse for a few extra years. The average age of a Fox News, CNN or MSNBC viewer is 60+. The median 20 year old NEVER watch
