If by slave labor you mean prison slave labor which will include the aforementioned detained migrant prisoners doing their old jobs, then yes.

I know they had a leather flap that worked as the pump check valve… likely the same for gaskgets. It would have been tanned but not treated (rawhide?)

At this stage, he could have his mouth fully surrounding the aipac flag & who cares? Israel is a single issue vote and it’s pretty fucking clear that both Dems and Republicans are going this path. The difference being I don’t believe the dems want to glass Gaza, turn it into a resort, or start WWIII with Iran, so we’ll still call it degrees of difference

We have much MUCH bigger problems at home with a theocratic fascist dictatorship firmly planted in the white house, both houses and the supreme court. They have already rapidly removed all but yes men from military leadership, Homeland, FBI, Justic, CIA, National Security, etc. and dismantled virtually all checks and balances while pivoting into Gestapo tactics at ICE, ignoring the rule of law, and pissed on Posse Comitatus by sending marines into LA. Oh, and they have arrested prominent democrat politicians. We won’t even get into the privacy erosion with DOGE, the Billionaire handouts, Tarriff graft with insiders, and general fuckery with our supposed allies (Canada, Greenland, Ukraine, Europe & NATO). The US is well and truly cooked.

But yah… let’s focus on Aipac lobbying while our system of government is fighting for survival.

Probably male doctor opinions only. OBGYN optional if they are white.

“I don’t care about that stuff. I just know that this is affecting the growers directly whether they are Democrat or Republican or whatever. These growers will lose a lot of money and are risking losing their farms because of a lack of labor.”

They FOR SURE cared about it when rural/farmers voted overwhelmingly for Republicans/Trump and knew what he was saying. This is 100% FAFO and now it’s all crocodile tears “don’t care if you are dem or republican” nonsense.

The default response to them should be “you should pick your farm up by the bootstraps and get the crops picked”. Or you know… Pay living wages to get citizen pickers? Either way, good luck without all the exploited labor.

Even Bezos has acknowledged that companies really only last 30 years. They inevitably decline. Amazon was founded by Jeff Bezos from his garage in Bellevue, Washington,[3] on July 5, 1994

This is the way.

Raft?

Tool belt: brand new All tools: brand new Hammer: held backward Tin snips? Adjustable wrench? I don’t think this woman is an actual carpenter. They’ve played us for absolute fools!

People with protection detail and staff don’t need 911.

Posse Comitatus - I haven’t heard ANY news outlet mention it to date. Complete failure of the press.

National guard is specifically exempt when State controlled.it’s a question of nationalization now.

I’m going to go with ‘survival’ survival for Putin.

" In addition, the Secretary of Defense may employ any other members of the regular Armed Forces as necessary to augment and support the protection of Federal functions and property in any number determined appropriate in his discretion." 100% illegal according to Posse Comitatus Act.

Deploying Marines, Space Force, Navy Army or Airforce in the US against the US is prohibited

Alien vs. Predator… Lance Henrickson and a cast of nobodies with an intersting plot. I went in expecting full-on crap and got a real banger instead.

Not paying for work already done sounds on brand.

Surely people don’t lie to get jobs!

All of Illinois has joined the chat.

We talking Theil/Palantir, Zuck/Facebook, or Ellison/Oracle here?
