I'm out of the loop. Been freezing my ass off for like 4 days now, with only a handful of hours of power during that whole time. Today is the first day I've had a decent amount of power and internet access. Just found out Rush has passed. RIP. Don't know what the fuck is happening in Texas, just that ERCOT is apparently fucking morons?

Will it be worth the economic collapse?

Will it be worth the caskets coming back from the Middle East?

Will it be worth Chinese hegemony?

Will it be worth the open borders?

Will it be worth the subversion of our national culture, heritage, and history?

Will it be worth the continued hyper-degeneracy?

Will it be worth the monopolized technocracy?

And God knows what else...

Seems overpriced to me.

"Deep in the 5,593-page, $1.4 trillion 2021 US federal budget is a provision that will likely put an end to online sales of vape juice and vaping hardware to our customers in the United States. (Our overseas friends are safe! For now.) And sadly, there's very little we can do about it, and very little you can do about it - other than find a local vape shop and convince them to carry Mister-E-Liquid. On March 28, 2021, we will no longer be able to send vapor products to our US customers.

The new law defines any vaping products as "cigarettes" under the Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking (PACT) Act, which has multiple effects. Within 120 days, it will specifically prevent the United States Postal Service (USPS) from carrying any vaping products, just as they're prohibited from carrying cigarettes. This includes not just vape juice, but also vaping hardware like coils and mods.

The obvious alternative, of course, would be to deliver our vape juice by UPS or FedEx or another private carrier, but they've blocked this route, too. FedEx has already committed to no longer transporting vapor products. Even if other carriers don't follow suit - and they have 90 days to do so - the PACT Act puts such impossible burdens on shipping using private carriers that it becomes impossible to deliver vape products economically. The carrier has to be able to check ID on delivery, and any error is subject to massive liability, including fines and possible jail time. The customer has to be home for delivery, and it has to be the same person who placed the order, not just someone over 21 who can legally receive it. The retailer has to file massive volumes of reports with every state, local, and tribal government, including the identity of every customer to whom we've sold, with again massive liabilities.

They're making it impossible to be an online vape company, without expressly outlawing the industry. We can legally keep making our product, we just can't get it to you. By slipping it into a bill that was too big to fail - this year's spending bill includes desperately-needed pandemic aid - they've back-doored their way into killing the online sales of vaping."

?

Some won't like to admit this, but this is the truth, which is why all the RINOs are making waves, because if they convinced the GOP to abandon Trump, they will control the judges and the legislatures, which are going to be required to see this fight to the end.

GOP needs the proverbial gun to the head on this. We have to keep them more afraid of us than they are of Democrats. Call your reps, call them every day. Don't let them even think about folding.

What even is the argument for "state's rights" when it comes, at least, to the presidential election?

Why should there not be a universal, national standard that all states, all cities, and all counties must adhere to in the case of presidential elections?

This doesn't even past the smell test of basic logic, or reason.

ELI5.

I'm not joking, or memeing.

Poll workers, counters, AGs/SoSs, etc... whoever has been involved at every level, no matter how minor or major their part.

The punishment for attempted coups should be swift and capital.
