“We need to give cops support and supply them with military gear to keep us from a military occupation” is quite the take.

One easy trick to accepting an occupying military is to have them on city payrolls instead of federal.

Who knew?

IDF came out prior to this and said that they HAD shown them the "smoking gun" so this is actually a pretty big retort even given the Biden admins complicity with the Israeli Government.

Is it really "selling" weapons when you're giving someone the money to buy the weapons in the first place?

I’ve heard many times that there are two navy Nuke electrician billets in the White House for general electrical gopher work that they’re perfect for. Still sounds like a rumor though

His loving dogs killed the Cougar. loving monster, we should let him out the wild with nothing and hunt him with dogs.

This is not the first time Montgomery is accused of violating local laws while on pre-trial release. Earlier this year, he admitted to the parks officer that he and his dogs followed a bobcat for approximately 11 miles before his dogs killed the bobcat, which violates local hunting rules.

The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors (elections) is majority republican. They've had enough of the fraudit and don't really give a poo poo if Donnie's going to lie up a storm. This letter rules.

The Cyber Ninjas are bad at computers.

Finally, we express our united view that your “audit”, no matter what your intentions were in the beginning, has become a spectacle that is harming all of us. Our state has become a laughingstock. Worse, this “audit” is encouraging our citizens to distrust elections, which weakens our democratic republic.

Your “auditors” began the “audit” unaware that using blue pens on ballots could harm them, and apparently would have distributed blue pens to those conducting the recount of ballots had a reporter not informed them. It has gone downhill from there. Your “audit,” which you once said was intended to increase voters’ confidence in our electoral process, has devolved into a circus.

You are using purple lights and spinning tables. You are hunting for bamboo. These are not things that serious auditors of elections do.
You are photographing ballots contrary to the laws that the Senate helped enact, and you are sending those images to unidentified places and people. You have repeatedly lost control of your twitter account, which has tweeted things that appear to be the rantings of a petulant child—not the serious statements of a serious audit.

None of this is inspiring confidence. None of this will cause our citizens to trust elections. In fact, it is having the opposite result. You certainly must recognize that things are not going well at the Coliseum. You also must know that the County’s election was free and fair, and that our Elections Department did an outstanding job conducting it.

Unfortunately, this has become a partisan issue, and it should not be one. It is time to make a choice to defend the Constitution and the Republic. As County elected officials, we come from different political parties, but we stand united together to defend the Constitution and the Republic in our opposition to the Big Lie. We ask everyone to join us in standing for the truth. The November 3, 2020 general election was free and fair and conducted by the Elections Department with integrity and honor.

Regardless of your intentions when you decided to subpoena our equipment and ballots, this cannot really be what you envisioned. You, Senate President Fann, are the only one with the power to immediately end it. We implore you to recognize the obvious truth: your “auditors” are in way over their heads. They do not have the experience necessary to conduct an audit of an election. They do not know the laws, nor the procedures, nor the best practices. It is inevitable that they will arrive at questionable conclusions.

It is time to end this. For the good of the Senate, for the good of the Country

“Nukes” are the pejorative term for the enlisted depression corps that run all the reactors and support equipment. Because of the skill set they often get shore duty in odd billets where you need a reliable gopher.

I spent 80% of my time fixing things like the laundry dryer and galley stove and a cumulative total of 0% fixing the reactor. Tech training is just generally useful.

In 2020, the island state of 24 million people was producing extraordinary numbers: fewer than 1,000 cases, about 90% of them detected in recent arrivals, zero infection leaks from quarantine, a death toll of 12, and 253 days without a single local case.

On Friday, the numbers turned when health authorities reported 29 local cases, followed by 180 on Saturday, 206 on Sunday, and 333 on Monday. Most are in the north, with large clusters in Taipei city and New Taipei city, where testing stations have reported 10% positivity rates. About 91% of Taiwan’s total local caseload has come in the past four days.
