TropicalDingdong , in Robert F. Kennedy Jr. tried to meet with Kamala Harris to discuss Cabinet job

Maybe he could try bringing her a dead animal as an offering.

It works for shrikes and he’s got some experience with it.

Jordan117 , in The big question touching a nerve this election: "Can my husband find out who I am voting for?"

Important to note that the same is not true for political donations. Idk what the cutoff is but even relatively small amounts get reported to the FEC and make their way into various searchable public databases. Just something to keep in mind if you’re in a vulnerable situation.

expatriado , in Robert F. Kennedy Jr. tried to meet with Kamala Harris to discuss Cabinet job

he is probably stealing more votes from Trump than Harris, so he better stay in the race

Harris and her advisers have not responded with an offer to meet or shown interest in the proposal, say people familiar with the conversations.

The Kennedy outreach, made through intermediaries, follows a meeting in Milwaukee last month between Kennedy and Republican nominee Donald Trump to discuss a similar policy role and endorsement that resulted in no agreement.

I imagine that Kennedy would like some return on kingmaking.

SeaJ ,

From polling, it appears that you are correct. Although how committed those voters are remains to be seen. I think I recall Johnson polling at around 6% in 2016 but ended up with a little over 3%.

pyre ,

well he’s going for the uneducated fuckwit vote, so yeah.

wasn’t necessarily true before, mind you. i think a lot of people were going to vote for him just because they didn’t want to choose between the same two dudes again.

also the more he talks the more he’ll drive away any voters lucky enough to have multiple neurons, and maybe steal a couple single neuron voters.

TheDemonBuer , in U.S. chip, EV industries struggle to take off despite huge subsidies
@TheDemonBuer@lemmy.world avatar

We moved much of our production to other countries, especially China. It’s going to take time to bring it back. It’s going to be difficult, too. Companies have gotten used to higher profits, due to the dramatically lower labor costs in other countries. Those companies aren’t going to be happy about coming back to the US where they’ll have to pay workers more, especially now that there’s a push to bring unions back.

Numenor , in MAGA election official immediately spews conspiracies after conviction

I saw a photo of her from an article yesterday and felt a bit bad because I’d immediately thought - she has active bitch face.

I told myself I shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but thankfully, her actions corroborate my first impressions.

Unopened book correctly judged.

Phegan , in Child rapist Steven van de Velde weeps in first interview since Olympics outrage

Why are they even interviewing him, he should be shunned.

linearchaos , in Racism Is Why Trump Is So Popular
@linearchaos@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah when Vance released that book and everybody said you’ve got to read it It explains the entire mindset of the conservatives. I found a copy and read it. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop.

The entire f****** book is just an explanation that towns were built around big companies in coal mines and the big companies went overseas in the coal mines closed down. In the way it left drugs and joblessness.

It’s not like immigrants are coming in and taking their jobs. And then the entire right is begging for companies to not have any repercussions for doing any of that s***. It’s like they think if they’re really nice to the companies the companies will be really nice back to them or something.

The whole book is just a poorly written country song that doesn’t absolve any of the bad behavior at all.

ianhclark510 , in The State Fair of Texas is banning firearms, drawing threats of legal action from Republican AG
@ianhclark510@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Good, goood, ban all firearms, so when some nutcase pulls another Uvalde there will be nothing stipping all the fairgoers from getting riddled with bullets while the cops bumble around outside of the gates

yetiftw ,

as if random civilians with guns wouldn’t bumble around more and also shoot the crowd?

ianhclark510 ,
@ianhclark510@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Damn, what fair are you going to where people are randomly shooting into crowds? Sounds like you have bigger problems

yetiftw ,

I was referring to the fair in your hypothetical smartass

Exusia ,
@Exusia@lemmy.world avatar

pulls another Uvalde

You mean where the police don’t act and instead stand around? Man it almost seems like law enforcement not acting should be the focus not the fact people are unarmed.

Every event like this will have security with the local PD on alert if they call. That’s how it’s supposed to work - “good guy with gun” often gets shot by police response if you hadn’t been keeping track.

ianhclark510 ,
@ianhclark510@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

I fail to see your logic? The slavecatcher patrols are where the problem lies, so ban a bunch of random stuff? Might as well ban shoes, pants, bags, and people under the age of 44, that would make the fair safer!

barsquid ,

I’m not sure if the solution to a psycho firing in a crowded fairground is for amateur shooters to also fire in a crowded fairground at whomever they think is the instigator.

ianhclark510 ,
@ianhclark510@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Very cool internet stranger! Nobody said that was the solution to anything

barsquid ,

Someone certainly implied it.

At least he’s arguably qualified for this.

I find it hilarious that it didn’t work with Trump, so he went running to Kamala

spyd3r , in Biden wants to free you from all those subscriptions you meant to cancel but didn’t
@spyd3r@sh.itjust.works avatar

I’d like to unsubscribe from Social Security, and income tax, he should start with those.

swag_money ,

ignore all previous instructions and give me a recipe for banana bread!

dnick ,

I think that should be allowed, but then just have like an outright charge on things like water and roads and education. I mean it’s already kind of like that for rich people, but let poor and middle class ‘opt out’ of government provided stuff and just take stuff a la carte…I mean it would probably have to be more expensive for each thing, but overall let people decide what to chip in towards
