Even if the right to protest is guaranteed for that country's citizens you are not citizens.

Doesn't the Constitution protect all people in the land, not just citizens?

Because Trump paints with an ugly brush and will surely target pro Palestine protesters who didn't break a law. And this is clearly the government retaliating against free speech and the right to protest.

Every person who crossed the border illegally or overstayed their visa according to Trump is a racist, murdering, drug dealer. Why would these protesters be any different?

After averaging just $2.77 per gallon under President Trump, and a price of $2.33 upon leaving office, the price of gasoline skyrocketed under President Biden, reaching $3.33 a year later. It went on to reach a peak at $5.00 per gallon and remains elevated today.

Gas has been under $2.77 since October for me, or at least around there. I'm sure they used "remains elevated" because the current average isn't all that bad.

Yeah, AAA lists the national average at $3.13 today and $3.08 a year ago.

There's a season of Community where Ahbed befriends a woman who becomes pregnant and in the end helps her deliver a baby in the back of a car.

The robo taxi isn't until 2026 if you make the assumption it's on time and is autonomous.

Tesla has said Full Self Driving is coming next year for like 9 straight years in a row, and the only thing that came out of that was "obviously FSD is a marketing term, only an idiot would have bought FSD and thought they get an autonomous vehicle"

Space X pushed the hyper loop when California pitched their idea of building high speed rail throughout the state, and once they gave space X a grant and cancelled their plans, he dropped the project.

Tesla's value comes from vibes and the potential of what some vaporware technology could be worth if they could actually build it.

I mean honestly, if Tesla could build an autonomous vehicle that could pay for itself in 1 year from taxi fares, why would they sell that to the public? They'd make way more keeping it to themselves or maybe franchising it out. A complete monopoly on the autonomous taxi industry sold for $45,000? Yeah, right.

MAGA also like cutting spending and Space X relies on billions of tax funding. So buy yourself a president and run fake department that aims at cutting spending so you can be at the table to not cut space X. Maybe let space X "absorb" NASA

Next time you get a choice of alcoholic beverage, try some Malibu (coconut rum) and Cranberry juice.

I'm with you on the ceremony stuff. I'd rather skip it

The 65+ crowd view him unfavorably, so I expect the jury to be a bunch of 65+ people

"You people are next" is a threat based on your own position of power. A politician saying that, yeah that's a threat. Some random person saying it someone else, not so much.

If someone has a recording of an ex saying that to them over the phone, the best you're getting is a restraining order, if you get anything at all.

Maybe if she said "I'm coming for you next", then that would have more weight. But now we're in hypothetical land, so who cares.

Yes, but the legal system does not act on the whims of mass adoption. It's like that mom in Florida who got slapped with terrorism charges for telling blue cross blue shield the deny, defend, depose line over the phone. The harsh crimes are there to chill anyone who might step out of line.
