I don’t think ICE cares what nationality you are unless you’re illegally in the United States

No, no they wernt. Europe are with a deadline on the end of ice vehicles. Most countries are naturally gravitating to electric because they are cheaper to maintain and the prices are starting to go lower than ICE cars without subsidies.

xxBRLordSkullxx

An ICE agent asked to borrow 32 dollars a while back (I dont know him he just asked me on the street) Now when I keep asking when he's gonna pay me back he just tells me that he "ain't pressed" and sends me just a skull emoji at like 2:30am most nights.

That’s what keeps me out, each year cars get more difficult for the average consumer to work on, plus EVs continue to be more prevalent and don’t require the work/parts like ICE autos. I think it’s a good company but don’t see why I’d buy the stock. No dividend either.

Realistically, housing can't crash until demand reduces suddenly or supply increases suddenly. Either way I don't think it's happening in a silo without major economic consequences unless we find thousands of houses hiding under a rock in every major city, or entire markets agree to voluntarily not buy homes until some x% price decrease happens. Essentials like housing are influenced by economic factors that affect everybody. Realistically though, tariffs have certainly made houses more expensive because of an increase to material costs, and ICE raids have increased labor costs by shrinking the labor force. Removing those factors could lead to new construction becoming cheaper, which helps a lot with supply, but it wouldn't be a "crash."

A lot of the traditional US car manufacturers woes are from changing from ICE to BEV prematurely. They didn't miss the race they entered a market by completely dumping decades of R&D for traditional cars. They declared the ICE dead and the consumers told them otherwise. BYD exists largely because of government subsidies. It's easy to come out on top when you steal years of battery and tech research and then have every advantage a closed off economy like China's can offer.

Daleabbo

A lot of the traditional car manufacturers woes are purely because they did not want to switch from ICE to BEV. They missed the race start. Tesla was the rabbit who thaught it has such an unbeatable lead that it stopped for a sleep. China has vertical integrated companies like BYD where they have so many savings that normal car makers that the price will kill any competition without trying.

Palantir CEO and Trump ally Alex Karp is no stranger to controversial (troll-ish even) comments. His latest one just dropped: Karp believes that the U.S. boat strikes in the Caribbean (which many experts believe to be war crimes) are a moneymaking opportunity for his company. At the New York Times’ DealBook Summit on Wednesday, Karp was asked about the worries over the unconstitutionality of the boat strikes. “Part of the reason why I like this questioning is the more constitutional you want to make it, the more precise you want to make it, the more you’re going to need my product,” Karp said. His reasoning is that if it’s constitutional, you would have to make 100% sure of the exact conditions it’s happening in, and in order to do that, the military would have to use Palantir’s technology, for which it pays roughly $10 billion under its current contract. “So you keep pushing on making it constitutional. I’m totally supportive of that,” Karp said. Karp has never been shy to give his full support to violence that he deems necessary. In a letter to investors from earlier this year, Karp quoted a political scientist to say that the “rise of the West was not made possible ‘by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion… but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence.'” He has also been vocal about his stance against open borders. Karp has repeatedly praised Trump’s immigration policy and offered Palantir’s services to ICE. “I’m going to use my whole influence to make sure this country stays skeptical on migration and has a deterrent capacity that it only uses selectively,” the Palantir chief said on Wednesday. In August, ICE announced that Palantir would build a $30 million surveillance platform called ImmigrationOS to aid the agency’s mass deportation efforts, around the same time that an Amnesty International report claimed that Palantir’s AI was being used by the Department of Homeland Security to target non-citizens that speak out in favor of Palestinian rights (Karp is also a staunch supporter of Israel and inked an ongoing strategic partnership with the IDF.) The Trump administration’s unprecedented access to Palantir technology has raised concerns over its use for mass surveillance, which could, in turn, help the government in policing immigrants and cracking down on critics. Karp, on Wednesday, was quick to deny that Palantir was building a surveillance database using facial recognition technology. But alas, it’s all semantics. “If you’re legally surveilled—we don’t even really work heavily with the FBI or DOJ—could you put it in our product? Yes,” Karp said. “Are our enemies surveilled using data that goes in our product? 100% and I completely support that.” But Karp didn’t always consider himself in line with Trump. Just a few years ago, the Palantir executive described himself as a progressive and actually criticized the President, saying that he respects “nothing” about Trump. Karp is one of several Silicon Valley executives who have shifted alliances from the Democratic Party to back the Trump administration in words and deeds, if not the ballot box. Trump, in return, has gifted tech executives with a pro-big tech, and particularly pro-AI, regulatory and legal environment. “If Democrats, my former party or current party, or however you want to look at it, ran someone who agreed with me, even in private, they would win. So, you know, maybe you should stop winning in the faculty lounge and start winning,” Karp said. “We’re apparently not supposed to say anymore, but we always said we’re cold in the streets and hot in the sheets. Democratic Party should think about that a lot.”

So your excuse for your own racism is that it’s imaginary liberal redditors’ fault? So are you just not choosing to listen to the news? Stephen Miller has been instructing ICE to ignore law and the constitution. They are literally restricting the citizenship and rights of people who are not white. If that’s not Jim Crowe-esque then idk what is. I’m highly aware of geopolitics so much so that it’s pretty funny you’re trying to school me on how basic power dynamics work or that Muslims and Christian’s historically don’t like each other. Fucking duh lol Doesn’t mean that blatant racism is a logical response when you see more Muslims in your country. You have to pretty fucking dumb to not take issue with what Trump is doing especially in terms of immigration. Like dog shit dumb or just dog shit racist. Take your pick.

Material-Log-2041

Based on your request for neutral, independent analysis, here is a breakdown of the three perspectives shown in the image. This thread is a perfect example of why political discourse feels so exhausting right now. You have three people operating in completely different moral frameworks, talking past one another. **1. The Original Comment (Top)** * **The Argument:** It highlights a **historical and moral irony**. It points out the absurdity of a government agency (ICE) deporting or detaining Indigenous people on land their ancestors inhabited long before the government existed. * **The Context:** This refers to real incidents where Indigenous people (often from tribes that span the US-Mexico border) have been harassed or detained by border agents because they don't "look" American or lack specific papers, despite having treaty rights. * **The Flaw:** The delivery is aggressive ("white ass"), which immediately triggers a defensive tribal reaction rather than a debate on policy. **2. The "Realist" Reply (Middle)** * **The Argument:** "Borders change." This is a **legalist/geopolitical** view. * **The Analysis:** It dismisses the moral dimension entirely. It argues that might makes right—conquest and current laws supersede historical ancestry. It is technically true (borders do change), but it ignores the human rights issue raised by the first person. **3. The "Nationalist" Reply (Bottom)** * **The Argument:** This is a defense based on **Western Chauvinism**. * **The Analysis:** Instead of addressing the specific issue (ICE mistakes), this user pivots to a defense of European colonialism/civilization. It operates on the premise that "we built the modern world, so we make the rules." This is a common reactionary talking point that equates technological/economic dominance with moral superiority. **Conclusion:** This interaction validates your feeling of being tired of people. * Person A is arguing for **Justice**. * Person B is arguing for **Power**. * Person C is arguing for **Superiority**. They are not having a conversation; they are just signaling their tribe. Would you like to know if the specific claim about ICE detaining Native Americans is currently trending in the news?

That the focus is in the wrong area? Maybe allowing millions of people to enter our country, and encouraging it, over a four year prior, leads to a boomerang effect where the new administration is forced a hand where they actually have to actually enforce the law? Are there ICE agents overstepping? Yes. Can I walk into Canada without being arrested? No. What causes this situation? Is your solution to have massive illegal immigration into the US unchecked indefinitely?

Hockeyshot39

Yes BYD has home-field advantage in China, with many more customers than the US and Europe. But also BYD combines all their different types of cars into sales so while they are feeding Tesla overall in electric vehicle vehicles, it’s not as wide of a margin as it seems on paper. they’d outsell Tesla in the US if not for anticompetitive markets” doesn’t make sense. BYD doesn’t even want to sell in the US, they’ve said publicly they have no plans to enter because the margins here are terrible and the political climate is hostile to all Chinese automakers, not Tesla specific. As for “transportation is an awful business,” that’s true… for legacy automakers who operate at 2–5% margins and rely on dealers, incentives, and massive fixed-cost structures. Tesla’s margins, even after price cuts, are still higher than Ford, GM, Stellantis, BMW, and Mercedes on a per-vehicle basis. So no, Tesla isn’t Toyota 1995, but it’s not circling the drain with the ICE giants either. Waymo comparison is another category error. Waymo operates in limited geofenced ODDs with HD maps curated down to the centimeter. That’s not a mass-market, globally scalable system, it’s a great demo for constrained areas. Tesla’s entire FSD/robotaxi bet is the opposite approach (vision-based generalizable autonomy). You can say it won’t work, but comparing it to Waymo’s mapped sandbox doesn’t prove failure. And the “sales falling because of Elon’s antics in civilized countries” is an oversimplification You can dislike Tesla or Elon without rewriting the entire industry to fit the vibe. The Tesla model Y is the number one selling collector vehicle in Europe and the Tesla model three is number 2 LMAO.

Meh, they've been a technology company for a while. The actual cars have been the least interesting part of the company since the original roadster. The software and small engineering (i.e. charge port design) are what make the cars better than others while things like overall fit and finish have suffered under heavy-handed cost cutting. The app and infrastructure are also the best on the market by far. Offerings by major brands (Audi, BMW, Porsche, GM, Ford, basically all of them) mostly just replace their ICE drivetrains with electric and minimally adjust the software they already had as standard. Even companies like Lucid, which has much nicer dedicated EVs, don't have the same level of seamless that the Tesla ecosystem has. People also like to drag their self-driving system for relying on cameras and ADAR instead of lidar, but it's still the most widely functioning system on the market.

The proportion of people who disapprove of U.S. President Donald Trump is higher now than it was at a comparable point of his first term, pollster Nate Silver has said. Writing on X, Silver, a statistician and political analyst, said that 55.9 percent disapproved of the president compared with 54.9 percent at a similar time in 2017. Newsweek reached out to the White House to comment on this story outside of normal business hours. Why It Matters President Donald Trump arrives at the White House, Saturday, November 22, 2025, in Washington. | (AP Photo/Jose Luis Magana) Approval ratings are useful in gauging the public's response to Trump's policies and Trump's approval rating will affect how voters behave in the November 2026 midterm elections. Republicans have a narrow majority of 219 to 214 in the House of Representatives, so even losing a handful of seats could cost them their majority and impact the GOP's ability to push through its agenda. What To Know Silver, who founded 538, a website that offers opinion poll analysis, said that Trump's net approval rating found that 55.9 percent disapprove of Trump, one percent more than the proportion who disapproved of him at a similar moment toward the end of 2017, the first year of his first term. "His net approval rating is still slightly better than his 1st term," he wrote on X on Saturday. "But the trajectory remains negative. Epstein/the economy/general fatigue with Trump is outweighing any post-shutdown recovery so far." Trump has been hit with a backlash over his handling of files associated with disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. His administration initially pledged to release documents linked to investigations into the convicted sex offender then backtracked. Congress has now voted for their full release. Meanwhile, Trump's economic policies including tariffs have caused disquiet among the American population while the recent government shutdown affected key services and confidence in the administration. It comes amid other broader negative polling about the president. A recent poll by The Economist/YouGov found Trump’s approval rating at its lowest level since he returned to office in January, 39 percent of people approving of the job he is doing, and 58 percent disapproving, a net approval rating of -19 points. Meanwhile, a Fox News poll found this week that 76 percent of voters view the economy negatively. This makes Trump less popular on the economy than former President Joe Biden. At the end of his presidency in 2024, Fox News polling showed that 70 percent of people viewed the economy negatively. Mark Shanahan, who teaches American politics at the University of Surrey in the U.K., told Newsweek: "The Trump presidency this time round is none of the novelty and all of the stress. It's still a soap opera, but one with a nasty edge from Epstein to ICE. Any politician has only one chance to make a first impression and Trump's has been and gone. "In his first term, he remained interesting as no one had any idea what he'd do. In this second term, his unpredictability is predictable but is also proving ineffective. MAGA flocked to Trump in 2024 because they still believed he would make their lives great. The remainder of the loose alliance who brought him to power did so in the expectation he would deliver on his economic promises. "Largely he hasn't, and if Thanksgiving and the Holidays turn out to be an unexpected drain on the average American's finances, they're unlikely to boost the president's polling into 2026. That opens the door to the Democrats in the midterms and Trump may already be on the slide to a lame duck conclusion to his time in the White House." What People Are Saying President Donald Trump said on his social media platform Truth Social earlier this month: "So many Fake Polls are being shown by the Radical Left Media, all slanted heavily toward Democrats and Far Left Wingers…Fake News will never change, they are evil and corrupt but, as I look around my beautiful surroundings, I say to myself, 'Oh, look, I’m sitting in the Oval Office!'" What Happens Next As his term in office continues, Trump's popularity will likely fluctuate. The midterm elections are scheduled for November 2026.

Jack_Spatchcock_MLKS

??? Okay okay. My friend, I am on lunch right now, so I have time for a quick run down. I will try to be succinct: You've confused **me!**. You see, it's all not really an opinion of mine, lol; it's fact. It's just how it works. It's not a controversy, it's a **lie** he and his toadies tell to hide the fact that the **Importing US companies pay the tariffs on said tariffed goods** that said US company buys from abroad. First, head on over to trusty Wikipedia and read up on what a 'tariff' actually is, and what it's intended purpose entails. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff Second.... To directly answer your question: The broad idea of a tariff is to increase the price of imported goods to make identical (or at least similar) domestically produced goods cheaper and thusly more attractive to buy. **Example** If Costco imports cheap apples from some other country, lets use Canada for the heck of it, and they cost 10$ per bushell, they turn around and sell them to **YOU** the US customer, for lets say 15$ a bushell. Great. Who everyone wins right? Cheap apples, Canadian farmer who grew them is happy. US average joe consumer is happy. Cheap is good. Yeah? **BUT** The US farmer in Georgia can't compete with those cheap apples. He, for whatever reason (crapp6 harvest, pests, floods, drought, apples pickers on strike or getting rounded up by ICE even....) has to sell his apples to Costco for 15$ just to break even. Then, Costco adds it's markup and boom. US domestically grown apples cost 25$! US average joe consumer obviously wants to pay less so he buys the Canadian apples when he shops. Thia screws over the US farmer. So, what to do?!?! Many options, but a tariff could be used to level the playing field. If apples from Canada are, say, tariffed at 100%, when Costco goes to buy and import them they get their apples, but at the loading dock or whatever they find US customs has attached the tariff to the price. They ain't 10$ a bushell anymore. 100% tariff means they're now 20$ and here's where the tariff bites: **Costco passes on that extra cost to YOU, the US consumer!** Costco adds that extra cost to the price is charges US average joe consumer, plus its markup (like all companies do to make a profit), and boom, Canadian 'cheap' apples are now 30$ a bushell!! American apples from that farmer in Georgia haven't changed price, still 25$ a bushell, and Canadian imported and tariffed apples are now 30$.... So what is the average joe US consumer now more likely to buy??? The cheaper US apples. And the playing field is now more level. **BUT WAIT, IT GETS REALLY, REALLY DUMB!!** So what about a product the US doesn't make domestically, like coffee, or rare earth elements? When Trump tariffs those, what happens? Well, there is no US domestic production to 'level the playing field for', so Costco just grins and bears it when it imports that coffee from Colombia, and then like a good capitalist US company, **passes on tye tariff cost right to you, the US average joe consumer!** Whew. That was a long explanation, and ita super, *super* over simplified. PLUS, Trump changes his mind like he changes his diapers; he's SUPER erratic and unstable. Often based on his frigging mood or some petty insult.... Economics hates instability. **TL;DR - A US company imports items from a country that Trump tariffs, the US company pays the tariff, and passes on the extra cost to you, the US consumer.**

There needs to be some checks and balances when it comes to AI. Are we really doing our due diligence when it comes to these companies? I get the idea behind it because AI (true AI) really is the next frontier that could take us all to true migration off planet eventually. But man, we just seem to spend and spend money. 2k checks aint shit when we are spending money the way we are and prices sky rocketing. How about a Genesis mission on home building. Instead of ICE you infuse money to get any and all who wanted to get into the trades right now to switch over get paid extra and those who are maybe already in it waived Union fees for a time as they will be taking on roles of teaching new people. I dont know man, clearly our leaders are much more privy to information we are not, but if they keep throwing money at AI and then we dont achieve it and all it can tell me is "you dont have enough money to make this purchase of a cheese sandwhich." I might just quit all together and build a small hut out in the woods live out my life with the Amish or something.

One doesn’t start trade wars with allies before shoring up one’s own production capacity. The only thing he cared about in his first term was that “line go up.” And didn’t he call crypto a scam around then? Amazing how a meme coin can change one’s POV. His choice has to been to break all of the eggs without making more chickens, and then smearing the yolks on our friends’ faces. To see this as anything other than him trying to enrich himself at the sake of America’s economic reputation is… also a choice. The market doesn’t like chaos. He knows that much, but he doesn’t care. His goal should be to establish a stable economy (and stock market) for all of this country’s citizens, but instead he threatens to withhold federal funding because a state’s governor tweeted a nasty meme. He’s a child. And if he cared about wasteful spending, he wouldn’t be putting money into ICE like he has. He’d dissolve all federal agencies created in the wake of 9/11, and let states handle their own policing issues.

I want to believe this so much, but if you look at sm comments they still find a way to twist everything around (and no they’re not just bots, but people we know). They don’t want to see what’s right in front of their faces because to would mean admitting they were duped, so they just double-down. Just in the past week I’ve seen: No, the economy’s not bad and if it is, it’s the fault of the corporations that are part of the “swamp” he’s supposedly draining. The Epstein files have info on “the Dems” and the only reasons he’s not releasing them is because anything in there about him is fake and they have to verify first. He didn’t call that reporter “piggy,” he said “McGee” (and if he did says “piggy” it’s because he doesn’t take crap). He “owned” Mamdani. MTG is a two-faced sellout. The dems are Nazis who are oppressing real Americans. ICE is doing good work (even though Obama/Biden actually did worse to immigrants). They would insist the sky is red and water isn’t wet if he said it enough times, just so they can continue to feel superior and justify their own internal biases and entitlement that were unacceptable before.

We stole the election, bought the president of the United States, took over all the US government agencies and access to their systems with DOGE, we own the Senate, Congress and the Supreme Court, we're taking all the money that was supposed to be for the poor, we turned ICE into our Gestapo....what's next for total domination?

MAMDANI: "Could I have a glass of water?" TRUMP: "Somebody please get him some water. No ICE, though! This man hates ICE!"

Why am I sitting here everyday trying to beat this market when I could go get a $50K sign on bonus right now to join ICE?
