Andrew Jackson famously paid off the national debt through a massive tariff that almost started the Civil War 20 years early

Also makes me suspect that republicans have zero clue who they can run after The Donald. Why else would they even bother trying to mention having the guy in office after 2028? The methods to do that are either a constitutional amendment (they don’t have anywhere near a big enough majority to get one through) or unconstitutional means (scary, but also way more work/trouble than running a competent candidate and winning a normal election). It would be way easier to start grooming the heir apparent if they had any clue who that was.

I was using Manjaro KDE and ended up switching to Pop OS because Manjaro would never work right with my GPU. Pop OS has worked very well out of the box though.

Those numbers are from the Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health. Regardless of whether they’re true or not, Israel supporters won’t believe those numbers.

With no more High Priestess the priest hunter could finally retire

It’s because education is sold as a way to get a job. Nobody communicates the value of being an educated person other than the salary one could potentially make.
