He's an obvious national security threat. Biden could claim immunity since it would be an official act to protect the country.

An officer then allegedly pulled a sealed emergency release button that shut the MRI machine down, deactivating it, evaporating thousands of liters of helium gas and damaging the machine in the process. The officer then grabbed his rifle and left the room, leaving behind a magazine filled with bullets on the office floor, according to the lawsuit.

I have doubts a constitutional amendment will pass, but hopefully there are other avenues to enact this plan.

I'm pretty sure The Den of Tools is just a shill for Harbor Freight.

Hmm... there's a big difference struggling to make ends meat and > A significant share of wealthier Americans are coping with financial pressure by cutting spending, including dialing back restaurant visits and entertainment.

That's not struggling, it's being irresponsible. I make over 6 figures and live in Southern California, and my only hard ships are self induced... motorcycles, motorcycle parts (I don't need three motorcycles), gun parts, car parts, going out to eat, driving an old truck, new tools and beers ain't buying themselves.
You cannot make me sympathetic for the wealthy with stupid headlines.

There is an inverse relationship between what someone has accomplished while in the military and how much they brag about it after they get out.

What's that line from Liar Liar? "STOP BREAKING THE LAW, ASSHOLE!"

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice

She is fighting some battles.

I keep suggesting this game to people. The story is pretty short, mechanics straight forward and game play very linear. But it is a ride. Do not read about it; no reviews, no strategies. Put on some good surround sound headphones, turn out the lights, and let the game carry you away.
One of the few games I've finished then immediately restarted.

What makes it worse, those people almost never actually struggled. Otherwise they may have learned to suffer some empathy.

Maybe riding a motorcycle has made me hypersensitive to it, but it seems, yes. I see all of you and so many of you are on your cell phones while driving. It's bad enough I've learned to spot you from a hundred yards behind; the subtle drift of your car, checking your speed with the brake pedal, you aren't smooth in stop & go traffic.
It apparently is a challenge for a lot of you to stay off your phones, a-fucking-lot of you. So it looks like WisDOT is speaking to many of you like children, because many of your fellow drivers are acting like children, unable to prioritize operating their 3,000lbs+ machine safely over Instagram/tik tok/Twitter or whatever the fuck.

They keep people in the car better during a rollover event.

Even more effective is a little known technology called a seat belt. Windshields have been laminate for a while. Side windows are supposed to be tempered so that shatter into tiny pieces.

That's always been my take. The Navy has the experience with big-ship operations, and operating smaller craft from those large ships, and it's supply and logistics would likely evolve from ocean to space faring ships.
The Marines are historically an amphibious force, an extension of the Navy, specialized in ship-to-ship and ship-to-shore operations; ship-to-surface would be the evolution of that.
