Reading between the lines, I suspect that there was a contract in place for use of the venue, and the System tried to back out of that contract based upon the directives issued by Trump and Abbott.
Liberal schools have backed out of contracts with conservative speakers many times. But when it's a liberal's contract, then it's wrong. What venue would rent space without a clause to back out for public image or legal reasons?

Anyone that screams like that should be considered as having a mental breakdown giving cops the authority to muzzle them. That isn't normal behavior. It's a sign of someone emotionally unstable which makes them dangerous.

What if we understand it to mean any cost increase will be more than offset by jobs and wage growth which lessens the tax burden.
All these anti-tariff people will assure you they are economic geniuses but don't understand opportunity cost. These are the people that think buying a refrigerator for $1000 and replacing it for $1500 in 10 years is better than paying $1500 for one that lasts 20 years.
They think it's better for a family to pay $1000 and have to resort to a 40k job to get by than to pay $1500 but make 50k.
All they can see is a cheaper price tag on the shelf. They are myopic.

Put me on the “ I like Sowell list”.
Sowell's great, but too many people use the argument "I'm right because Sowell agrees with me" here. He's not infallible, and the argument is an appeal to authority.
Either the argument can stand on its own merits or it can't. Having a sponsor for your argument doesn't convince people capable of thinking on their own. On the contrary, if you need to name drop, it makes your argument less convincing.
re: Will AI fakes become illegal? RE Vance and Elon

Curious if posting fake speech made with AI will be protected under the First Amendment.
Is it illegal to do an impression?
Is it illegal to take someone's real words and alter the tape to make something different?
Will only AI be illegal or will all deceptive editing like the daily show or CBS where they show an answer to a different question? Or when they cut out context to make it sound worse?
Should all AI be banned or just the realistic ones?
Will AI like Dank Brandon be banned even though it is clearly a joke?
Will it be legal with a disclaimer? What if someone removes the disclaimer and transmits it? Is the original creator still liable?
If AI is going to be illegal, then shouldn't all manipulated media?
If AI makes something and I alter it slightly, is it still AI generated?
If I train the AI or write the code, will it be my creation then and therefore legal?
The content creator can upload it anonymously, so the people in trouble will be the ones sharing it. Will they be prosecuted for not knowing it was real?
There's going to be a huge can of worms if people try to ban specific AI content. If they can make it illegal to make certain content, it will open the door to many other types of banned content. I'm not always a fan of the slippery slope argument as a reason to not make changes, but this seems like a good application of it.
re: Pope Francis calls for an end to 'heavy bombing in Gaza'

Why, are there some of us who are in favor of totally razing Gaza to the ground using a heavy carpet bombing campaign? Why would somebody be in favor of that?
Because this will never end until one side is completely gone. They've been fighting longer than most of us have been alive. Israel is the most likely winner in a battle to the finish, and as much as I dislike them, we could be rid of them if everyone just ignored them. We'd have to kill the muslims to achieve the same.
Having Israel level Gaza and then move in and rebuild on their own is the most practical solution at this point.

Tornetta's Argument:
Tornetta argued that shareholders were not fully informed about how easily the goals would be achieved when they voted on the package.
His argument is "I agreed to it, but I don't know enough about what I'm involved in, and I'm too stupid to do my due diligence, so someone needs to pay for my mistake."
If lawyers weren't scum, they would have laughed him out of the office.

You improve processes, identify waste like overspending, and evaluate jobs and teams on ROI.
That's exactly what DOGE is doing. They identified unnecessary waste. They also identified that department X doesn't need Y number of employees, so like all smart business people do when forced to make cuts, they get rid of the newer, lesser experienced employees.
DOGE is doing exactly what you said they should, but you're still bitching.
When you are dealing with millions of employees, you can't evaluate every one individually. You have to make generalized cuts. Getting rid of newer employees or entire departments is the most logical way to accomplish that.
This is the real world and our decisions have to be made in that context. The departments were also told to put forth downsizing plans. If some new employee was so great, the departments have the avenue to save him.
People bitched for years about waste. Now you're bitching because they aren't making cuts "the right way." Which is ironic, or more accurately hypocritical, because I'm willing to put money on you cheering on Massie for opposing the CR when he wants untargeted across-the-board cuts.
re: America is actually the bad guy

To believe this is true would require that people like Obama and Biden were actually in on a plan that would eventually strengthen America. That's just not believable.

The first thing Kash did was redecorate his office and clear his personal trainer in. Then fly to his Vegas home.
Kash took a day to settle in to a new job instead of arresting everyone you wanted him to before he even started an investigation into them? The horror. If this isn't proof that nothing will be done, then I don't know what is. He spent a day to decorate his office, for frick's sake. Who does such a thing?! The republic is dead.
Are we really going to get upset because Kash took time to decorate his office? You're desperately looking for something to complain about. In no way does Kash decorating his office mean that no arrests are happening. It's silly to even make such a connection.
"I can't wait for the crooks to get arrested."
"Didn't you hear? Kash spent day 1 redecorating his office, so that means no arrests will ever happen."
"Aw shucks. That's unassailable logic right there. Welp, we tried. Guess I'll go back to voting GOPe. Their spines are as nonexistent as mine."
Do you people even realize what it takes to prosecute wealthy, connected people? If Kash arrested everyone in his first week and blew the prosecution because the investigation wasn't thorough, you would be bitching about that. Do you want the criminals to go to jail, or do you just want to feel good about them being prosecuted for a few weeks until their overpriced lawyers get them off because the case wasn't airtight?
Can we at least wait 6 months to a year before all the wailing and moaning about nothing happening? Why do you people expect to overturn decades of multi-level corruption in a couple months? It's simply not realistic, and you're stressing yourself for no reason.

Good God, it's barely been 2 months. Nothing's happening!! Trump should have arrested everyone on day one!! OMG that one person still has a clearance!! It's all over!! We're doomed!!
I really wish people on the right would grow some balls. This incessant whining that nothing is ever good enough is just as annoying as when the left whines about everything.

re: How Free Trade Took Down the American Middle Class
Posted by TenWheelsForJesus on 3/23/25 at 5:45 pm
The strength of the middle class is what made America prosperous and the most powerful country on earth. We were able to outspend the soviets because of the wealth created by the middle class.
The "true conservatives" are fools blinded by their own moral superiority. They follow their "principles" despite the real world outcomes. Like the leftists who follow their belief in affirmative action even though it hurts black students when they can't keep up, the "true conservatives" will complain about the social structure crumbling without realizing that their zombie-like devotion to their ideology contributed to it. Instead of analyzing the results, they will insist that continuing to follow their ideology is the only way to solve the problem exacerbated by following their ideology.
This is why America First is the superior belief system for our country. We don't have to worry about hurting our country when we do "the right thing," because doing the right thing would always be what's best for America.

If you look at a lot of the prominent stars of the 60s and 70s, many had ties to intelligence or the military. The leftists have always been brainless drones. They were told to hate the establishment back then to cause turmoil. Now they are told to love the establishment to cement their overlords' power.
Leftists have always been easily manipulated retards who do what they are told.
