Doubtful

I would expect Israeli intelligence to know to go get commercial grade satellite imagery to circular. I’m not looking at this image is false or an isolated act.

I’m just saying that Israel has a vested interest in pushing a media narrative that is against what the Trump administration is pushing in this specific case and has the resources to provide backup information.

Assuming a competent set of diplomats, I wouldn’t be surprised if some back channels between Iran and the USA agreed to these limited exchanges to save face and not go to war.

And I wouldn’t be surprised if Israel knew this and is exposing this as a way to push the USA to war.

Manhattan has an entire network of steam transmission.

There is also a lot more driving in the USA, even in a decent transit area like Chicago.

Yeah, but it is a question of whether his base will believe him or not.

The same way people can learn to dance while reading a book.

I would rather have a poor attempt at setting up a system to prevent genocide than none at all.

The City of Charlottesville has a master plan which includes infrastructure upgrades and expanding their business network.

It sounds like the people suing don’t want to ride the bus.

Yes

It was a difference between Western powers versus the Soviet Union. Western powers tried to make sure that Germans understood their complicity to genocide even if they didn’t operate concentration camps. In contrast, the Soviet Union generally portrayed the problem being Hitler leading the people astray.

Yeah. Trump can buy off police departments by giving them carte blanche over their personal conduct.

They had to follow orders, but they did it in the minimal way possible.

They made sure the military looked like crap on parade. A lot of units weren’t in dress uniform and the marching was noted as sloppy where it looked on purpose.

Very little modern military equipment was used. That the US Army pulled out a Sherman tank shows what the military wanted to show off.

Also, over loudspeaker, they played Fortunate Son, which is an anti war song about how the rich don’t have to go to war but the poor do. That is not a song I would expect to hear at a military parade.

This was not a parade where the US military was showing off.

I think the big issue for Trump right now is the military. If you read between the lines of January 6, the military purposefully skipped the chain of command in allowing for the deployment of national guard troops. I wouldn’t be surprised if the military cut the President out of the chain of command at that time, especially as they got every former Secretary of Defense to defend their actions post instruction.

Trump and Hegseth have been trying a lot of carrot and stick incentives to get the military on board, but the recent Trump Birthday parade shows that there is still a deep disdain on serving Trump. You also have a lot of military strategists who likely see the writing on the wall regarding supporting Trump; Trump can’t give the military anything close to what the military already has.

Trump can clear out the civilian government, but the military is a lot harder to crack.

Because you need a justification for the higher price. Without the update cycle, flagship phones would likely need to be cheaper to sell.

A lot of working and middle class people don’t understand how tax brackets work and a lot of upper class people don’t have a financial incentive to correct the working and middle class.

Also, a lot of upper class people have shifted their income from wages to capital gains, which has a lower effective tax rate.

The problem with that is that you generally have to fly with an ID and a name; a name you need to provide when buying plane tickets.

I don’t see how the face scan let’s them do anything beyond what they already can.

The audience wins out over time.

The USA has never had an event to make Americans from shame for the country. It isn’t like the USA hasn’t done shameful acts, but there hasn’t been a reconging of what the country has done.

Well, where do you thing Bob got it from?

If a networked system of computers existed, it would probably look a more like Minitel and be very tightly controlled. I would expect that all computer communication would be available to be reviewed by various government agencies.
