Your comment made me think again at my sources. Re-researching starting with the link from @CaptainPedantic@lemmy.world and eventually through this Atlantic article it seems as though pandemic supply chain issues finally caught up to the fly factory.
But as @evenglow@lemmy.world said, I’d still chalk that up as first term damage, and Trump and DOGE should get screwworms.
The article doesn’t mention why this is suddenly an issue. They used to have a narrow choke point around Panama where they did this routinely to keep these things from ever getting into the US, but that was cut as part of the “government efficiency” fiasco, so now it’s a widespread, growing, problem. Really the perfect example of why wildly cutting government spending without thought is not an ‘efficient’ approach to reducing spending.
There is also a picture of a screw-worm infected dog in the article, if you want to see what your republican sponsored future will be
At this point i’d take an AI CEO, at least the fuck ups will be impossible instead of impossibly stupid
*illegally freezes, but good luck getting CBS to hold trumps feet to the fire in any way
Why was he even running
Apparently there are ‘snark’ (what the hell kinda name for a genre is that?) pages on Reddit for all sorts of niche stuff
From my cursory glance, yes, they are
Sad, I watched her shorts sometimes. Apparently there was a hate ‘snark’ subreddit that just made up shit about her all day, with some members connected to the factory farming fur industry, and pedophilic artist KazeoLion, leading the harassment
Look at that, actually politicking, never thought I’d see the day
“That’s my IP to sit on and do nothing with!”
Fuck whoever stayed quiet then
“Oh no, I might contradict the annoying moron who is wrong! I can’t be seen as being on the opposite of that!”
Operation Midnight Hammered
Aww just the screen rights, I thought this was about someone else acquiring the Duke franchise
The letter is described as 1.5 pages long and “incoherent,” claiming that Boelter was secretly trained by the U.S. military “off the books.” The letter was found in Boelter’s car, according to the Star Tribune, and says that Walz wanted Klobuchar killed so that the governor could run for senate, something he’s expressed no desire to do. There’s no evidence anything in the letter is true, but that hasn’t stopped conspiracy theorists on X from insisting it’s evidence that Boelter is actually left wing.
hahaha. It’s funny, but there are people just as stupid as this guy who will point to this toilet paper as a smoking gun
Christopher and his team were anticipating the termination of the program and have been working to present asylum cases for some Haitian immigrants. They’ve been able to grant at least 10 people asylum so far, but the options to stay in the U.S. legally are limited.
“At least twice a week, I get a call into my office from someone who indicates, ‘I’m supportive of these deportations, I’m supportive of raids. But I’ve got someone here that works for me, or, ‘I’ve got somebody that I know and I want to help them get legal. So what do we need to do to get them citizenship?’” Christopher said.
“They are amazed when I tell them there is no path, or if there is a path, it might be 20 to 30 years,” he added.
Not a god damn thought in their heads
and all the deaths surrounding him, JD Vance would make a good Stephen King creature
I’m actually laughing out loud at this bullshit
