If the MAGAnauts push the woke Blue states into their United States of Alabama, who will make the neat stuff?

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power. What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

-- Nicolle Wallace/2024 [like this? the next extortion is on the way]
Effective with the 2026 mid-term elections, military proctors will be stationed at every shithole Blue city polling place, demanding to see a current, valid United States of Alabama passport. No passport, no vote. I am the dictator.
-- Donald J. Trump by Executive Order, this day 7 December 2025 [let's not wait that long]
He was awarded a Bronze Star and a Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB), having served in civil-affairs operations and as an adviser in Afghanistan. But let's be clear: Hegseth was not a front-line leader of combat troops under sustained fire.

I have had to explain and re-explain and re-explain and re-explain, you know, how relational databases work, what is an eigenvector,

I know a little something about SQL, DB2 (preferably LUW, z/OS if the money's right), Oracle, SQL Server, Postgres, and database design in general. Mentoring/teaching/consulting on a short term basis, too. And a bit of stat analysis if it's R.
