How do you even define “foreign ownership”, anyway? The owners of most of this land probably aren’t Chinese citizens. They probably aren’t citizens of any nation, because they’re probably corporations. What if it’s one corporation owned by another corporation owned by another corporation? What if a group of businessmen in Beijing established a company in Delaware? What if it started off as a completely American corporation, but then did an IPO, and all, or a majority, of the shares happened to be bought by Chinese people?
Not sure if there’s a better thread for this, but Legal Eagle (and Liz Dye) just released a video on Project 2025.
The other day, the Cleveland Plain Dealer had an op/ed saying “Don’t believe all the scares about Project 2025”, and then listed some of the things in it. Gee, huh, if you’re only listing three or four of the items in it, it’s possible to find ones that don’t seem so scary. Who’d have thunk it?
Are there any items in Project 2025 that aren’t scary?
The font’s not bad.
I’m now toying with the idea of sending them E-mail complaining about their use of Arabic numerals.
Are you kidding. They used comic sans.
If that isn’t evil, I don’t know what is!
Also don’t believe all the media’s scare tactics about Texas Chainsaw Massacre. It’s a film about some friends going on a road trip, <scenes redacted> and a woman laughing.
(Actually I forgot; a woman’s laughter *is* now apparently scary to the RW).
Red state, after all.

This is the guy who won the primaries for U.S. Senator, not the GOP equivalent of a LaRouche no-hoper running for the General Assembly. 
Part of me wants to laugh, but part of me says “This is how you get from now to Handmaid’s Tale in less than a decade if Trump wins.” Witch is always shorthand for “women who are bold or outspoken in ways we don’t approve of.”
Hey! I represent that remark!
(Well, not the cat part - I have a parrot, not a cat. Does that still count?)
No! Parrots make you pirates, come on, this is basic stuff!
Familiar spirits were most commonly small animals, such as cats, rats, dogs, ferrets, birds, frogs, toads, and hares.
Bolding mine. But do you weigh the same as a duck?
Do you use the parrot as a hotline to Satan? If so, yes.
“Beelzebub want a cracker?”
Is it your familiar? Then yes.
It was a fat parrot, for it flies around at night while she sleeps, plucking the souls out of Republicans. It has been losing weight of late, though, as the pickings have become sparse.
Eh, the rules for parrots as familiars weren’t even introduced until Stormwrack.
In return, we Show Me folks drive over to Kansas for sports betting - I’m guessing the tax revenue comes close to zeroing out.
Somewhat related anecdote:
A month or so ago, I was walking and had a couple in a car stop and ask me how to get to Kansas. Being fairly close to the border, I asked him where in Kansas so that I could give him the best route. He didn’t care - he labeled himself a degenerate gambler and just needed to get across the state line so the app on his phone would register as being in Kansas and he could place a bet.
