Looks like Ship Trump ran straight into the Harris/Walz iceberg.

Yes, please do fire them and hire even worse ones, just like you did with your lawyers in your many court cases.

  1. Ms. Liu no longer lives with her father having moved out of her family home in September 2022 aged 16, but for the past two years she has regularly visited him at her family home a few nights per month. Ms. Liu further explained that on many of these visits since her father began using his dorzolamide eyedrops, she would lie on her father’s bed to talk and spend time with him each evening beginning around 8:00 p.m. and would stay on his bed from 30 to 90 minutes at a time, during which time she would have contact with her father’s pillows and bedding.13 When reacting to a funny or emotional story or video she shared with her father, which was not uncommon, Ms. Liu would sometimes press her face into the pillow while laughing.14 Ms. Liu explained that as a young child she grew up talking and spending time with both of her parents in their beds while they relaxed and that she had continued with that family tradition when visiting her father, and treasured it all the more since she no longer lived with him.15
  2. Ms. Liu’s father corroborated Ms. Liu’s explanation that in June 2023 he was prescribed dorzolamide eyedrops to treat his glaucoma which he administered in his bed twice daily until ceasing use in late March 2024

A little odd, but not unbelievable. There was also a point made that this medication would not help her compete in her field of artistic swimming and that the measured quantities were extremely low, consistent with it being absorbed through the skin. So on the whole it sounds like there's no real controversy here.

"He believes AI could save it." Haha, nice joke there Marc.

The party that has promoted a sexist and racist agenda for decades is surprised when its members publicly make sexist and racist comments about an opposing candidate? This very well could turn into a major leopard-ate-my-face moment and I'm ready for it with plenty of popcorn.

I get the feeling they didn't think this through thoroughly.

My guess was based on knowing that his parents were likely conservative (owing to the signs in the yard). In my experience conservative parents are often stricter than more liberal leaning parents. If that was the case here then knowing he was bullied and denied being on the rifle team, I can imagine that things weren't exactly chipper for him in the family home either.

My guess was, of course, just speculation. However, I would urge whoever is investigating his actions to look into the family situation to get a better picture of what might have motivated the young man's actions.

He was a young man still finding his way. Even accepting the fact that he had conservative leanings, that doesn't preclude the possibility of him doing something to lash out at his parents particularly if that something involved causing the death of a prominent "conservative" his parents hold dear. My presumption is that his conservative parents were strict and overbearing, which isn't a stretch based on my own experiences.

Not sure if you are in the US or not but just so you are aware, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) will not issue a copyright to AI generated content. I don't know what the laws are outside the US, but other jurisdictions may be similar. The upshot of this is that while you may try to sell AI generated content, you will not be able to enforce any sort of copyright on it, at least within the US and possibly other countries. Many (those whose countries don't recognize copyrights on AI generated content) will be able to take what you post/sell and sell it or use it as their own without having to pay you anything.

True. My comment was addressing the perception of Biden as portrayed by the major media outlets (they rarely ever mention that Trump is nearly the same age), but I concede that my comment could have been clearer in that regard.

Another video recorded on the island of Ebeye in the Marshal Islands. This video is on the topic of the islander's affection for Basketball. In this video Evan is asking for people to send any surplus basketball related gear to the island for the benefit for the children. Details in the video and description.
