What is significance of September 17?

---

It's constitution day, although I wonder how many Leftists know that. It's the anniversary of its ratification.

---

Actually it is when it was signed. It was ratified in June.

Patrick: We’re going to remove these leftist liberals on campus who are inciting students. We're going to hold them accountable.

Is that due to more gold buying, or the big run up in gold the last few years?

Inflation hedge and a steady exit from government bonds (not just U.S. treasuries) due to geopolitical economic instability.

i've lived in the united states for most of the 42 years i've been alive, and i've never had people be openly racist to me.

until i heard from all the people either openly on X or privately in DMs hurling racist abuse at me for switching to the republican party.

eye opening.

I never understood how Kimmel avoided all the cancel culture stuff given his background and the show he started on…..

Hannity: Pritzker, Newsom, predictably claiming this is a conservative censorship. That is a false. I can't find a single prominent conservative voice in the country that even remotely wanted or was pushing to get Jimmy Kimmel taken off the air. pic.twitter.com/UfKSl87wph

No his White House was busy fueling hatred and starting the recent race issues by commenting about ongoing police investigations and spreading false information about criminals turning them into saints that were "wrongly" shot by the police or getting involved in cases they shouldn't have been in and creating a new classification for people to be "white" because they were not dark enough to be "true" Hispanic.

Ive never found Kimme funny, but there were affiliates who were telling Disney they were not going to show Kimmel's show anymore. That's why it is suspended, though now it seems he is mad, and wants out of the ABC contract.

I hadn't heard about this before now and can't find much detailing it when I looked it up briefly.

Seems like an odd pair of countries to agree to this. Other than being Muslim I can't much they have in common or even how big of trade partners they are.

I don't like the precedent of the White House advocating for removal of TV hosts it doesn't like. I read some of those statements as not so veiled threats which seems out of line to me.

It is unprecedented. Righty zealots love it because they see it as the government making late night a safe space for them. Anyone with a brain hates it because if the government will censor soeech that you hate, eventually it will censor speech you like.

But my point was that this seems to not be a result of the FCC chair's threat, but an affiliate in the South who will need FCC approval for a merger soon.

They are sucking up, not actually caving to federal pressure. Fine line, I know.

"Unprecedented"?
