I laugh, but then I also run my fingers across my tin foil hat a little.

The Old Guard GOP really wanted to keep Cornyn. They dropped over $120 million on this primary. That's 1/12th of a Kamala Presidential run on a single Senate Primary. That's more than twice of the entire Massie vs Gallrein Primary, both candidates compared to just Cornyn. Just as Massie v Gallrein was loudly the most expensive Representative Primary, this was quietly the most expensive Senate one. Only Ed and Tom were at about parity on spending, Paxton was out spent five to one!

I'm really not joking when I say this is the dying gasps of the old GOP power structure. This was quietly a major battle in the RINO vs MAGA civil war, and the RINOs have been completely embarrassed.
This makes one wonder what the Republican Party will look like once Trump's term is over.
 
A person is suing to become the owner of some 80 thousand Bitcoin wallets that have been inactive for five years
If memory serves if they don't have the key they can't access the wallets or transfer crypto out of them, right? If it was possible to brute force the keys it probably would have been done by now.

"Victory or death!" proclaims a costumed bagpiper in vintage military uniform and helmet, as Anti-ICE Protesters continue holding a Human Chain outside Delaney Hall Detention Center at midnight on 5.26.2026

I would guess it would just be treated as abandoned property. But it’s literally inaccessible anyway.

Hypothetically, if you were the owner of the wallets you could legally obtain the funds if and when the keys are cracked once quantum supremacy is achieved. Could be the long play. Now, that could take a very long time to happen, but assuming (BIG IF) Bitcoin is still around and still on the rise that would be an absurd windfall.
 
It is not necessary for an officer to watch or download your child porn collection to charge you with child porn possession or to attain a warrant. Merely matching of hash values will suffice.
Wait, was it a requirement up until now for cops/feds to actually get their hands on a stash before they could charge, even if they had a criminal dead to rights? Was that hard/inconvenient or am I just missing something obvious/stupid

I definitely see the NeoCons essentially being extinct after 2028. The GOP will essentially have a more nationalistic bent and be more wary of free trade. Basically the clock's back to the Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt idea of the Republican Party.
 
Didn't SCOTUS just say this can't be done?
So, now we have to wait for this to be brought up to SCOTUS? What is the point of all these lower courts if fucking everything gets kicked up to their desk in the end?
You lads didn't think these cunts were just going to take their (imaginary) balls and go home after being repeatedly smacked around in court, did you?

They'll do this down to their last fucking dollar. They're that petty and spiteful (and desperate to survive at this point).

Incidentally this is how you know they're really feeling the hurt now. This kind of endless lawfare in the face of obvious precedent is unprecedented. They know they're sunk if they can't find some way to keep their existing cheating mechanisms working.
 
I do not care if you grew up on a sneed farm in rural Wisconsin.

I do not care how many tours of duty you did with the Marines.

I do not care how many country songs and American flags are in your campaign commercials

I do not care how many pounds you can dead lift.

If you campaign on mass importing jeets and niggers into my country you are my enemy and I want you to fuck off forever.
I used to be middle of the road on this issue. I know plenty of ethnically Indians who are great people. Truly net positives to the population.

The scale of difference between them and those abusing the system, both in numbers and personal impact, is too much to ignore now. I'm especially concerned with the increase of those who worship the pedo prophet.

Do you know what the funniest and most ironic fact here, spite, desperation and hubris when losing is what turns a loss into a complete fiasco. These lawsuits and rulings are going to cause a complete motherfucking disaster for their side.
