Here’s what I find especially odd. Trump’s trip to the golf course was apparently “unplanned” and “not on his official schedule.”

Yet the gunman had been there for 12 hours:

Was he just waiting there in case Trump randomly decided to go golfing that day?

I think something people forget is that the candidates are standing like 10 feet apart. So with Trump’s mic muted, we may not be able to hear him, but Harris probably still can.

I think that’s one reason Biden seemed so feeble in their debate—he was having trouble focusing on what he was trying to say with Trump rambling on in the background. With the mics muted and the camera focused entirely on Biden, that was totally unapparent to the viewer and it seemed like Biden was just losing his train of thought for no reason. I’m sure Biden told Harris as much, which is why the Harris campaign was pushing for unmuted mics.

I find it funny that all the replies to this comment are things like, “get money out of politics” or “increase spending on education.” In other words, things that require legislative action.

So all we need to fix our broken system is for that broken system to work correctly. Got it.

That’s Chinese, not Japanese.

Got an agenda, do ya?

Read the article:

Another option involving them is the magnetar, a neutron star with an intense magnetic field that's prone to energetic outbursts. But those outbursts also generate more energetic photons, and the researchers checked the site of GPM J1839–10 with an X-ray telescope and saw nothing. Plus, magnetars are thought to rotate more quickly than the 22-minute gap implies, so they're probably out as well.

Just because some random Google result says it’s a magnetar doesn’t make it true. Considering the team that discovered it doesn’t make that claim and as far as I’m aware no one else has looked at this particular star, I think it unlikely that there’s a definitive, widely accepted explanation.
