Internal US news is not World News. Literally almost anywhere else this would be fine. !news@lemmy.world !politics@lemmy.world !keeptrack@lemmy.world

"Remember, you only get one mother!'

"Promise?"

People who haven't been there, do not know and really can never know.

I'd say, your best and safest bet, is to cut ties. When it comes up in conversation, politely explain that not all families are "presentable".

Unless you know every thought that has ever been thought, there's no way to know if your thought is original or not.

I think challenging them to do so definitely opens that door.

"But what is the other explanation?"

When it all goes wrong, and everyone has to Make Attorneys Get Attorneys, you need low level plebes to fall on their swords.

"Hey, hey, it wasn't ME! It was THIS GUY!"

We're already seeing it with Musk and the whole "Well, he doesn't REALLY run DOGE."

No, but you don't challenge them to investigate you, because they absolutely will.

At least they haven't been charging you for it?

 

NGL, I have an inherent bias and put in my reservation on a car that does not technically exist yet.

Keogh has some good things to say in this Podcast with Motor Trend. Still a lot undefined, but he seems to be saying the right things.

"Mr. Trump's tariff increase also eliminated a duty-free exemption for low-value packages coming from China. The "de minimis" exemption allows goods valued at $800 or below to come into the United States without paying duties or certain taxes.

But it has faced scrutiny due to a surge in shipments claiming the exemption in recent years.

U.S. officials pointed to the growth of Chinese-founded online retailers Shein and Temu as a key factor behind that increase — and Tuesday's halt could delay parcels from both companies from entering the country."

Just little things like the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) and the Near East (UNRWA).

"The UN Educational, Science, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), in particular, will undergo a review under an expedited timeline due to its history of anti-Israel bias."

Looks like he's buying the lies about UNRWA and Hamas.
