Of course they flee on roads. Far faster way of escape than taking a hiking trail or a bike path.

To paraphrase Mark Twain, history does not repeat itself, but it often rhymes.

Sadly, they'll all be found guilty but too old and white to actually go to prison for their crimes.

He claims to hate the same people they hate. He was a Democrat until he decided to run as a Republican.

"In many cases, I probably identify more as Democrat,” Trump told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer in a 2004 interview. “It just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans. Now, it shouldn’t be that way. But if you go back, I mean it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats." - Donald Trump

Whether or not he really hates them is anyone's guess. Personally, I think that after his foray in birther-land, he realized that Republican voters would like it if he dropped the mask and let his racism shine through. Now he just spews hate at anyone right wing voters hate and they lap it up.

Assuming that the theoretical aliens lack faster-than-light travel, it would make more sense for them to send automated probes to explore star systems rather than sending living beings on multi-decade (at least) trips. If alien technology has really been discovered it would most likely be a crashed drone or something like that. AI guided probes designed to operate in stealth while studying a new civilization would surely be the best first option.

There has been a lot of talk lately due to testimony given before Congress from a former Pentagon employee with the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office who claimed (second hand) that the USA had intact and partially intact alien vehicles

“We are not talking about prosaic origins or identities,” Grusch told the Debrief. “The material includes intact and partially intact vehicles.”

Grusch said analysis determined that this material was “of exotic origin” – meaning “non-human intelligence, whether extraterrestrial or unknown origin”.

Now, in my opinion, just because someone has impressive credentials doesn't mean that they're not a loon. On the other hand, I feel that the results of any tax funded research into such matters should be fully public.

Yep, according to this Guardian article.

Today we were unlucky, but remember we have only to be lucky once, you will have to be lucky always.” The IRA’s statement after its bomb exploded in a bathroom on the sixth floor of the Grand Hotel, Brighton, in October 1984, was cleverly sinister but, with its repeated emphasis on luck, oddly airy. It took responsibility off the shoulders of the killers and placed it on those of Dame Fortune.

It's one thing to indict a hamberder. To indict the ketchup stained wall it was thrown against is quite another.

It's an app. Maybe it requires GPS access so they can track that data point. VPN says USA, GPS says Germany, they block access.

Ha, a computer in grade school? You young pup! When I was in high school we were writing programs using punch cards you had to feed into a reader!

Immigrants coming to the country to request asylum is in no way an invasion by any literal usage of the term. Further, no state is in "imminent Danger as will not admit of delay." DeSantis is just playing this up to drum up support of racists. Frankly, I wish people in the USA would realize that this nation was built on immigration. Every person in this country who is not 100% Native American is descended from immigrants and I'd wager that includes every single person in that town hall.
