Is that still true today? Or can you speak loudly and carry and even louder stick?

Well considering no one actually uses literal currency anymore…whats the big deal
Basic question about ‘Operation Epic Fury’
Posted by Augustus516 on 3/26/26 at 5:39 pm
Just wondering who came up with the name, that’s all.
Epic Fury, what are we describing. An all-caps tweet/post?
And while we are at, lets discuss the worst handles for military operations in general
Where does ‘Epic Fury’ rank?

But again the difference, from the article you quoted:

The Biden White House has chafed at comparisons, repeatedly emphasizing that Biden has fully cooperated while Trump repeatedly stonewalled investigators.

Trump refused to let the FBI come search his files. That gave the FBI the opening to get the warrant. (Yes, there is a legal question whether Trump declassified the documents are otherwise had a right to them...im just saying he gave them the opening they wanted)
Not the answer the board will want to hear, but this is the correct answer

Clearly they are preparing for the long haul.
And if the current government is popular enough to call for backup, there is probably no appetite for regime change among the civilians

True. I was just assuming Alabama was objectively more backwards than Virginia and that they would pay state senators like 5 bucks

Executive orders are what every intelligent president understood they were for decades before trump:

What is this. Sounds like my wife’s grandfather rambling about being a share-cropper.
Every day (for trump) should be a SOTU address day, drafted and crafted by someone…smarter.
Give us the cliffs later. Jesus.

For anyone paying attention, this is and should be the biggest news concerning government overreach in a long time.
This administration has already played kingmaker with Intel and other major companies by investing in them.
To force a private company to release guardrails on its product…based on a liberal AND conservative consensus interpretation of the constitution is unreal.

Then why do we keep talking about it. Since everyone knows trump wants regime change or to just blow Iran off the map, what 7-year olds are left, thinking otherwise?
Is it true the new 10% tariffs will only be in effect for 150 days?
Posted by Augustus516 on 2/21/26 at 6:50 am
If true, i imagine businesses may potentially cut deals with other countries business knowing there is an expiration date, with little political appetite to renew.
Am I right? Any business/economist types with insight on this?
