VP Harris tells teachers union she’s ‘fighting for the future,’ blasts Project 2025 • Oklahoma Voice
  • I don't see how someone with a Yale law degree is able to consider people making less than $50k a year when making economic decisions. Then we have people like Nancy Pelosi who is just there to enrich herself.

  • Republican attacks on Kamala Harris to get ‘as ugly and bigoted as they can’
  • I'm saying I want universal healthcare and Dems won't do it. They want to give health insurance companies and private hospitals a shitton of taxpayers money and keep insurance tied to employment. It's a crock of shit.

  • Top things everyone I know is worried about:

    College costs and student loans for themselves and maybe their children, must younger people can't afford children. Medical costs Housing costs Ability to retire at a reasonable age Cost of living

    Kind of hard to see how they want to fix those issues when they're taking money from those industries and using private health insurance companies to administer Medicare/Medicaid plans and still paying sky high prices to private hospitals. Private health insurance is a huge gift to employers as well. It keeps people from easily leaving and they get huge tax breaks.

  • Take control of the DNC away from the center right and get progressives in charge.

  • Cop described Sonya Massey shooting as ‘self-inflicted’ in initial dispatch
  • Not just black, but suffering mental illness. Not sure which is a bigger crime. Certain people will instantly dislike you because they sense something different about you.

  • Yeah, I saw her speech to the DNC the other day. She used a bunch of weasel words like "affordable" healthcare, "middle class" , assault weapons ban, etc. These things range from meaningless to barely a move in the right direction. Y'all got tricked into thinking the conservative corporate candidate is so progressive because she is compared to the fascist option. It's a bunch of B.S.

  • The problem is that "access to low cost / affordable healthcare" is such a limp dick policy. Yeah, I can "afford" healthcare, but it still costs me thousands of dollars every year and I'm tied to my employer for it. Then I'm still not getting very good care and I have a chronic mental health disorder. That cop just executed that schizophrenic woman in Illinois and I've been arrested and mistreated due to my own mental health. Nobody is helping people like me and her. Local jails are filled with people who are there because of the lack of mental healthcare. I'm lucky that I get to see a p-doc for 5 minutes a month without paying full price. Full price is $200 per visit, just to get a refill on a prescription that makes me feel like shit all the time. I got my appointment mixed up one time and couldn't get a refill until I saw the doc a week later and had to restart on a lower dosage. Nobody wanted to help me get a refill, I talked to multiple people at the office and at the pharmacy and couldn't get it and kept getting different answers from different people. The doctor told me I should have came in to see him without the appointment. I was afraid to do that because I didn't want to get kicked out and lose access to my doctor. The healthcare system in this country is a mess and a joke due to shitty scum sucking MBAs taking over every aspect of it. They're working for the private healthcare industry and doing nothing to help us.

  • To be fair the Democrats don't have a platform other than: not Republican/Trump/ diverse coalition. Ok, they didn't want to backslide, which is good, but the things they want to accomplish don't help the working class a whole lot.

  • The Rule
  • You can probably find a used workstation/server capable of using 256GB of RAM for a few hundred bucks and get at least a few gpus in there. You'll probably spend a few hundred on top of that to max out the ram. Performance doesn't go up much past 4 gpus because the CPU will have a difficult time dealing with the traffic. So for a ghetto build you're looking at $2k unless you have a cheap/free local source.

  • Mark Kelly now heavy favorite to be Harris’ running mate as he blasts JD Vance on Ukraine
  • I hope that age in politics snaps back hard in the coming years. As I get older I'm really getting sick of old people

  • Too spicy?
  • They also want to defund the IRS and other federal agencies, which exist to enforce laws. Once of the biggest CSAM busts in history was spearheaded by a single IRS agent and resulted in hundreds of arrests across the globe, including a border patrol agent. It ended with taking down a huge darknet website called "welcome to video."

  • Somehow USB disks are still the easiest and most reliable way
  • Most phones are only USB 2.0. I don't know why you would want to mess with that if you don't have to.
