Trump floated the idea of using nuclear bombs to stop hurricanes headed for US
President Donald Trump has floated multiple times the idea of thwarting hurricanes headed for the US by bombing them, including by dropping nuclear bombs on hurricanes to disrupt their course.
Sounds about as informed as when folks claimed the world was ending because there wasn't more oil to be produced. Trump is itching for using nukes, doomers itching for the end of the world...whatever floats your boat I suppose.

American Socialism / From the crucible of Haymarket

New York Times columnist fact-checks Elon Musk on ‘no deaths’ due to USAID cuts
Elon Musk, accusing him of spreading misleading information, after the world’s richest man claimed no one could name even one person who had died due to foreign-aid cuts in the USAID programme.
Yamah Freeman, a 23-year-old woman who died during childbirth after Musk "stopped paying for the diesel for ambulances in her part of Liberia"; Gbessey Kiadu, a one-year-old who died of malaria.
"Ibrahim Koroma, an infant, died of AIDS in Sierra Leone after you interrupted HIV supplies. I talked to health workers who cared for him," Kristoff wrote.
And many others. The trouble with Fascists is that their definition of who people are is very narrow.

Central Europe sizzles as heat records are smashed in Switzerland, Denmark and Czech Republic
Unusually high temperatures were recorded even in the Nordic countries not known for sweltering summers. Denmark’s Meteorological Institute reported a record 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit in Ødum north of Aarhus — the warmest day since records there began in 1874.
The Eurotrash are cooking! And it's not even the hottest part of Summer yet! Maybe they can relocate Europe to Greenland.

Kagan Puts Trump's Most Inflammatory Remarks About Haitians Into Supreme Court Record
Justice Elena Kagan put President Donald Trump's most racist and inflammatory remarks over the last decade about Haitians into permanent record Thursday, blasting her conservative colleagues on the bench for refusing to "put them in print."
Scathing dissent unravels Supreme Court claim Trump wasn't racial using his own remarks
In her dissent from one of the Thursday Supreme Court decisions on immigrant rights, Justice Elena Kagan made sure Donald Trump’s litany of racist remarks would be a forever part of the court’s historical record.
Welcome Bags Planned for White South African Refugees
“They will get an Android tablet, an American flag and copies of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence. They will also receive a packet of literature that provides a sanitized, Trump-approved view of American and South African history, one that criticizes racial equity and civil rights laws and promotes claims of discrimination against white people.”
People entranced by Trump do not think he is racist. I dream they perish in a puff of smoke. AI has more consciousness than these people.

Iran pushes plan to charge billions for Strait of Hormuz management as Trump denies fee scheme
Iran's negotiations over Hormuz management would give Tehran unprecedented control over a chokepoint through which 20 percent of global oil normally flows. The regime is examining international models, including Turkey's Dardanelles arrangement and the Malacca Straits Patrol, to justify the arrangement.
Now back to our regularly scheduled war.

Who is Dan Jarvie? And TDoS is still TDos. He wrote a book don't you know, after telling the Austin City Council that the world was ending because of that peak oily stuff. I wonder if that video is still around?

American Socialism / From the crucible of Haymarket
Last post by TDoS - Jun 26, 2026, 04:22 PMQuote from: K-DogIs it worth pointing out that in American Socialism this nonsense would not exist? A planned economy centered on human needs would not allow this bubble.Such is the hope of its supporters anyway. During the last national elections folks seemed to be more interested in fascism. Mandami appears to be pitching his verwion of it pretty well. I suppose, on the grounds that if the Republicrats can lean farther right, the Democans can try leaning farther left. RE can have his prior protein rations restored, and you can get cheaper health care maybe, and higher taxes because you own property that can't be hidden or moved very easily. Always hated the idea of buying a house for that reason, if more closely resembles a financial anchor.
