Joe Biden has launched one of his most scathing attacks yet on Donald Trump’s record of racism, suggesting that the former US president would have acted differently to the January 6 2021 insurrection if was led by Black people....
We don't have a 2 party system. We have a broken first past the post voting system that becomes 2 party automatically. It can't change until the way voting is held changes.
You still haven't accounted for how an orbital insertion would work. You have to reach orbital speeds in the correct direction which requires a directional burn not possible from the ground.
Well for one you cannot make anything orbit with only a launch from the earth, it will require at least an orbital insertion burn or it will either crash back down or reach escape velocity, not orbit earth. So is there another rail gun in space that catches and relaunches the craft? Are they firing rocket engines and rocket fuel with this rail gun?
Physics, specifically orbital mechanics, remains in the chat.
“I just wanna debate this guy, but you know– and I’m gonna demand a drug test too, by the way,” Trump said as the audience cheered. “I am. No, I really am. I don’t want him coming in like the State of the Union. He was high as a kite.”

I'm not American so I face no real threat(as far as I'm aware)
You need to up your awareness friend. There is no corner of the planet not directly affected by the upcoming election in the US. Go ahead and imagine the current state of the world but with the US pulling out of NATO firmly allied to Russia. Sound fun?
It will definitely be vetoed by the governor but what's this? A republican super majority that can override vetoes? One that they got by having a Democrat switch parties immediately after being elected?
These fuckers have declared war on America, it's time to take the threat for what it is.
Body positivity is such a strange concept to me. There's efforts to reclaim words while simultaneously calling them bad if used as an insult.
