I was just out of school, and there were no good jobs. Good times...
There were like 8 companies that came for interviews the quarter before I graduated. The quarter I graduated there were 2, Motorola, or the Pascagoula shipyard. Being no dummy, I took the Motorola job. Funny, after 2 job changes I ended up working in shipyards or Navy bases the rest of my career, but never directly for the DOD. You work with what the world hands you at the time.

I did work with what I had. Are you trying to pretend the economy was good? And I graduated WHILE he was in office.

Clamping down on Regan administration inflation was painful but necessary. Oh, you must have forgotten about the oil shortage also, caused probably by the Saudi's and our own oil companies.

Carter took the one action that brought down inflation: he appointed Volker to the Fed. That's where the sky high interest rates came from and that is what ultimately broke inflation. The severe recession was also a result of that same tight money policy. If you were already well off, the policy made you better off with very good returns on savings. If you weren't, sucked to be you.

I'm not aware of anyone ignoring their rulings. Yet.
Callifornia (gun laws) , Alabama (voting distric maps), and Texas (Immigration/razer wire), are just some the states in the last few years, have all defied the supreme court decisions.

California pushing new gun laws is not what I would call "ignoring" SCOTUS. They're doing the exact same thing (in the other direction) that the hyper conservative states are doing.

AL districts were redrawn and in effect for this past election. They fought it, but lost.

The Texas razor wire was removed by CBP per final decision from SCOTUS.

I find it funny you sit here an make claims they didn't defy the SCOTUS when various sources say all three defied the SCOTUS's decisions, opposite of what you claim here. I guess you know better..

Great. Elon has posted the list of federal employees he wants to cut


I hope this back fires
Musk, who called himself “super pro climate” in an X post last year, reposted and commented: “So many fake jobs.”
This motherfucker right here is talking about other people having fake jobs?

Noted within that article "$181,648.00 by the US taxpayer to be the ‘Climate advisor’ at HUD."

That is the kind of thing we need to get rid of.

However Musk today proposed killing the entire CFPB. The branch protecting people from financial scams run by banks, pay day lenders, car title swindlers and lately fintech startups.

Gee, I wonder why he wants to get rid of CFPB. Could this request be on behalf of his billionaire buddies in finance?

The agency that that makes decisions on how to most wisely allocate billions of dollars on long term infrastructure projects shouldn’t have a climate expert? Know nothing Felix writes again!

Comprehension difficulties? Let me spell it out for you: you are trying to say they didn't defy the SCOTUS, giving your explanation as to why they didn't, when in fact they did, which is backed up by various sources.

But Elon virtue signaled to Felix. Everything will be ok now! Going after these kinds of roles is intended to be a distraction from the truly evil shit they will do to people. Rubes like Felix are going to led straight to the slaughter house.

You realize that is total pay including retirement and etc. which is not that much for a person in DC

But is more egregious is that Leon is making decisions and he has not divested from his companies and signed the ethics pledge

Until Leon and the rest of the trumps gaggle of idiots actually divest and sign their ethics agreement their statements are about as useful as tastebuds in an asshole

That's not how those cases ended up. At least in the 2 specific ones you mentioned. And again, the CA ones are just typical laws that get passed and then get fought out in the courts.

You simply have a different definition of "ignore" than I do.

Enjoy your thanksgiving.

IS that why sources specifically state that CA is purposelly defying the SCOTUS in rewritting their gun laws? The very definition of defiance is continuing to try and do something you have been told you can't do. So your "that's how gun laws work, they keep writing them and fighting them in court" is a bullshit argument, speically when they have already been ruled they can't do what they are trying to do with those laws.

IS that why sources are saying AL defied the SCOTUS when they refused to rewrite there districts as ordered by the SCOTUS, and purposely defied them in rewritting the maps not once, not twice, but 3 times, where the finally maps where chosen by the District Court, not the legislation? IF the state of AL wasn't defying the SCOTUS, why was it the district court that made the decision on the map, and not the state legislation?

IS that way sources state Texas defied the SCOTUS when it comes to the boarders? It's also a direct violation of the constituion because boarder authority falls under the federal government, not the states. Of course, A federal court ruled Yesterday that the Federal goverment can't remove razer wire. So now we have federal judges ignoring SCOTUS rulines, as the SCOTUS ruled that the federal goverment CAN take down the razer wire. So, if the razer wire was taken down as you claim, and they wheren't defying the SCOTUS, why would such a case be in court blocking the feds from removing it, after the SCOTUS said that the feds COULD do so? The fact that they filed a new suit to stop the feds from taking down the razer wire AFTER SCOTUS ruled that the feds can, is another text book definition of defiance.

You can spin it how every you want, it's you who is trying to redefine the definition of "ignore", or in this case defiance, not me. Let me ask you this, as father, if you child defies you for a day, a week, or a month, then stops defying you, does that mean they never defied you? Fuck no! How the cases ended up doesn't mean they didn't defy the SCOTUS in the mean time, and when they do stop defying the SCOTUS, it's because they hadn't found the means to do so permenantly. Everyone of those states did defy the SCOTUS decisions, and some still are.

With that said, I hope you had a great Thanksgiving, spent time with family and those you love. I am about to go take my mom out to Thanksgiving dinner. cheers!
