[00:15] IsambardPrince "Waukegan police said a man apparently took his own life after accidentally shooting a friend to death Sunday evening.

[00:15] IsambardPrince The incident unfolded at around 7:15 p.m. as four men were driving around Waukegan trying to buy drugs, police said.

[00:15] IsambardPrince As they were driving in the 1900 block of West Greenwood Avenue, Fredi Aquilar Carrasco, 31, who was in the backseat of the vehicle, fired a pistol into the back of the front seat. The bullet struck Leobardo Diaz, 28, who was in the front passenger seat, according to authorities.

[00:15] IsambardPrince After the shooting, Aquilar Carrasco exited the vehicle and walked away, police said. His body was discovered later that night in the yard of a residence about two blocks from the initial shooting. He was dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot to the head, police said."

[00:16] IsambardPrince MinceR, Well, there's two ICE doesn't have to find anymore.

[01:47] IsambardPrince schestowitz-pi, Every authoritarian kleptocracy gets used to having humorous euphemisms for political corruption.

[01:47] IsambardPrince I suppose in America that will be "Donating to the Trump Presidential Library".

[01:47] IsambardPrince This describes what happens when you say something Trump doesn't like and he threatens your broadcast license or has some sleazebag of his work you over.

[02:08] IsambardPrince "If I didn't know already, I would ask "Who is so freaking retarded that they would vote for someone like this?"

[02:08] IsambardPrince Unfortunately most of my family. You shouldn't ask questions you don't want to answer I guess.

[02:08] IsambardPrince It's not that the Venezuelans who thought they would be the "Golden Immigrant" because they hate anything vaguely Progressive are particularly stupid. Half the people my mom goes to church with, including her household, are on the dole, and Trump released an executive order that cited no laws in the middle of the night that not only tried to take "the dole" but pretty much everything down to federal aid highway grants.

[02:08] IsambardPrince Everyone is on "the dole" if you haven't noticed lately, because that's what happens after 50 years of right-wing politics, inflation, recessions, and wage stagnation. Programs from the 60s and 70s that were intended to deal with extreme corner cases of poverty become something EVERYONE relies on.

[02:08] IsambardPrince Now they're coming for that. Enjoy, I guess?

[02:08] IsambardPrince I hope they send the Venezuelans back if many of them really are right-wing. Conservatives are why our country is such a dumpster fire already and the last thing we need is more people like this here and maybe becoming citizens and voting someday. We are apparently perfectly able when it comes to destroying our own country. Go home.

[02:08] IsambardPrince If Ronald Satan had sent the Cubans (the last group that turned out to be amazingly right-wing) right back where they came from instead of starting a long program of welcoming their least desirable and most reactionary defectors into America, perhaps we would not be talking about Trump right now."

[02:16] IsambardPrince Trump should use that one when war breaks out with Venezuela.

[02:17] IsambardPrince MinceR, He doesn't realize it but the best way to cement the Republican grip on America would be to let the Venezuelans burrow in. They hate Maduro and it would be the Cubans all over again.

[02:17] MinceR that would be counter to his emotions

[06:02] IsambardPrince schestowitz-pi, USCIS changed their API.

[06:02] IsambardPrince I had this to say on Reddit:

[06:02] IsambardPrince "It could be an innocent API change, it could be the administration trying to make it so the data doesn't get reported. Who knows?

[06:02] IsambardPrince Trump didn't like the unemployment numbers after he didn't respond to COVID at all for 6 months, so he told BLS to go back and get him "better numbers" and then later they revised it and said they undercounted it. It wasn't 16 million people losing their jobs in 6 weeks, it was 24.9 million.

[06:02] IsambardPrince It's like 1984, right? Orwell. The statistics don't matter. Maybe they had a goal of making 150 million pairs of boots, but they only made 60 million, so they revise the goal to 50 million and now they have an overproduction. Maybe they didn't make any boots. Maybe half the people are walking around barefoot.

[06:02] IsambardPrince Expect this to be how "statistics" get reported again.

[06:02] IsambardPrince What happens when tariffs and trade wars sink our economy and put millions out of work and cause hyperinflation?

[06:02] IsambardPrince Do you expect everyone in the news will cite BLS saying that unemployment skyrocketed to 11% while inflation that year was 18%?

[06:02] IsambardPrince Of course not. They'll "get better numbers"."

[06:02] schestowitz[TR2] you post loads of Off topci stuff

[23:59] IsambardPrince MinceR, On Reddit, I said: "Many doctors who have to read state-mandated speech say "The State requires me to tell you that......but that isn't medically true."'

[23:59] IsambardPrince The law basically requires them to say it, but they have their own Free Speech rights to tell you that medically, what the State requires them to say, is not true at all.

[23:59] IsambardPrince You only get laws like this in red States."

[23:59] IsambardPrince "Then the State requires them to show you an ultrasound when they know that you are experiencing a miscarriage.

[23:59] IsambardPrince For years I thought that this is probably where the evil would end and that Roe v. Wade was settled law, but now it's not."

[23:59] IsambardPrince "Now, in many States, women who miscarry are being investigated and even sometimes prosecuted criminally."

[23:59] IsambardPrince "OB/GYN in Indiana was crap before all of this happened, and I hear it's getting even worse now.

[23:59] IsambardPrince Before hospital birth, infant mortality rate was incredibly high. It was something like 11-12% of all pregnancies.

[23:59] IsambardPrince Indiana really wants to go back to this? Illinois already has half the infant mortality rate of Indiana.

[23:59] IsambardPrince If it wasn't for States like Indiana making the national average worse, we'd be doing better than Canada."
