The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

1. Fired Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse, head of the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency for providing information contrary to Trump’s decreed view.

2. Said he will deploy the "regular military" to American cities, first Chicago, then New York and S.F. -- sounds familiar in a Civil Wary kind of way.

3. Blurred the line between the regular police in Washington D.C. and the military.

4. Used the FBI against his former national security advisor.

5. Haled work on an offshore wind farm constructed off the coast of Rhode Island, despite a rapidly growing need for electrical power supplies from the massive growth in data centers.

6. Announced the federal government's embrace of corporate statism, taking a 10% ownership stake and control of Intel (paid for by money from the CHIPS Act).

7. Hinted at a name change for the Kennedy Center (that will include the name "Trump").

8. “Admitted,” along with vice president Vance, that the criminal investigation of John Bolton is coming from the White House.

9. Will deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man who can testify to torture committed at the direction and payment of the Trump administration, to Uganda on Monday.

But don't call the pedophile a fascist.
