It Could Happen Here recently published a podcast episode about how this would work. Some people are upset with how far out the date it set, but it's a smart approach and provides the runway necessary for other industries/unions to sign new contracts.

The far righters weren't happy and voted against this. But they said they weren't going to kick him out because of it.

Louis Rossmann pointed out that it's effectively an ohmmeter 🤣

If you're familiar with the Lock Picking Lawyer, he has his own store and has some good kits.

I'm not getting any sort of kickbacks from the link. I picked one of these bundles up and I like it. The lock it comes with is super handy because it's designed to be re-pinned. You can change the pins without disassembling the entire lock.

A further update from The Guardian's live blog:

The ousted Republican delivered more than one “shoulder charge” on another rebel who displeased him, the former Illinois congressman Adam Kinzinger, according to a book Kinzinger released last month.

In it, he calls the California lawmaker “notably juvenile” for his treatment of Liz Cheney, the former Wyoming congresswoman who like Kinzinger served on the 6 January House committee investigating Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn his 2020 election defeat.

And he detailed two times he says McCarthy physically “checked” him, “as soon as I started speaking the truth about the president who would be king,” Kinzinger wrote.

“Once, I was standing in the aisle that runs from the floor to the back of the [House] chamber. As he passed, with his security man and some of his boys, he veered towards me, hit me with his shoulder and then kept going.

“Another time, I was standing at the rail that curves around the back of the last row of seats in the chamber. As he shoulder-checked me again, I thought to myself, ‘What a child.’”

Is that eagle... shooting a machine gun?

Sounds like Enshittification.

Yet despite that...

Tuesday’s statement from the House Freedom Caucus included the line: “… we remain committed to working with Speaker Johnson”.

Never threaten to endanger a Republican’s weekend off.

100%.

Several people have jumped into them. Some have been rescued from there, but “a handful” had “jumped into the net and then jumped to their death,” Mulligan said.

He declined to say how many. It will take a year or two of data to fully understand the system’s effectiveness, he said.

In the decade beginning in 2011, bridge officials said, there were 335 confirmed suicides, or an average of 33.5 per year. In 2022, as the first nets were being strung, there were 22. Through October this year, as more nets have been added, there were 13.

“If we save 30 lives a year, and not 31, it’s worth it for those 30 people who we saved,” Mulligan said. “And that’s every year. To greatly reduce the number of people dying in the community is a worthy goal. And to achieve that is success.”

Some of them, sure. But she continues to be an outspoken critic of Donald. So much so that she calls him "the world's most dangerous man". I think we can give her a pass.

I'm refreshing the page but it's not getting any fuller!

They voted for a hurricane?

Everything I've read about them states that they're specifically designed to be non-lethal.

I agree that on the surface it sounds inhumane. But if it didn't hurt much, just think of all the Tiktokers that would turn this into a challenge.

I'm no fan of Elon. But some of us rely on Starlink to get connectivity on our phones because not even LTE covers the area.

I liked when the reporter asked Karamo if she could name just one example of how they've been fundraising and she said yes but still failed to do so.

Kristina Karamo

We're not bankrupt. That's not true. So the thing about it is, we are operating at a positive cash flow. So yes, it has-- have I hit the financial goals that I would like? Not at the level I would like, but we are on our way.

Zoe Chace

Well, that's why I guess I'm asking just for any example. Is there a fundraiser in which you tapped into businesses that had been sitting on the sidelines, like you talked about in your campaign?

Kristina Karamo

Of course.

Zoe Chace

Or something like that?

Kristina Karamo

Of course.

Zoe Chace

Just any specific you can give me?

Kristina Karamo

Yeah, well, for one, yes. But I don't know what specific you're looking for. Because my question is, why are you so dogmatic on the notion of people who want to push the elitist narrative? That's my question. Because I've answered it multiple times.

But my question to you, so why are you so aggressive on that notion? I'm not going to go through the nuts and bolts of every person who's given $1 or $10,000 or $20,000 to our administration. I've answered, we're operating at a positive cash flow.

It Could Happen Here had some good coverage on how this is actually happening.
