Imagine a system more concerned about healthcare and not itemization of billable services.

Republican voters are never going to change their preference to a democratic candidate based on who the Democratic candidate is. The people who have potential to vote for Democrats aren’t undecided in who they prefer, they’re undecided if they even care enough to vote at all. Getting more people motivated to vote who didn’t vote in the prior election is the only way to gain votes. That’s true for any Democratic or Republican candidate for president. Presidential candidates need to make sure that people who voted in the last election for their party’s candidate don’t become disinterested in voting in the current election.

The tough on crime reputation Harris has may demotivate otherwise likely voters for a Democratic candidate.

I hope she motivates people to vote for her.

Let’s not forget that Bernie was a wealthy, criminal businessman from Manhattan in that movie.

Does the NSA need a warrant to purchase information that’s being legally gathered and sold?

The governments in the US shouldn’t be collecting non-public information without a warrant if acquiring that information directly would require a warrant. Seems like a clear infringement of the 4th amendment.

We should look out for all the villagers and reduce the risk of tiger attacks.

Solution? What do they think the problem is?

In his Telegram post today, Durov — borrowing some of the more “high-level” language that other social media executives have used — said that “Telegram’s moderators and AI tools remove millions of obviously harmful content from our public platform,” but he also swiftly moved on to defending the app continuing to allow sensitive content under the category of “war-related coverage.”

“Tackling war-related coverage is seldom obvious.” (He does not define what the line is between “obviously harmful” and “war-related coverage.”)

“While it would be easy for us to destroy this source of information, doing so risks exacerbating an already dire situation,” he continued, citing how, he said, Hamas used Telegram to warn civilians in Ashkelon to leave the area ahead of missile strikes. “Would shutting down their channel help save lives — or would it endanger more lives?” he asked in his post today.

It’s illegal to fire a gun in a mall for good reason. The man was found guilty of doing exactly that.

He was found guilty of exactly the crime you’re concerned about for the exact reason you’re concerned about.

We should be seeking ways to promote access to education, the concept of these exams are antithetical to education. The model of limiting who is deemed worthy of education is on its way out. Tests such as these should be self assessments if used at all. The Classic Learning exam doesn’t seem too valuable as a self assessment.

6’3" 215lbs was reported. I don’t believe that for a second.

How is it a mistake in this case to remand the defendant?

No good faith argument. But many are not willing to confine themselves to good faith.

Millions of people are jailed pending trial.

The steal was stopped by those who refused to participate in his conspiracy to steal the election.

An “advice of counsel” defense would likely require Trump to testify on the stand and be open to cross examination.

An “advice of counsel” defense requires that the documented advice given align with actions taken. It seems that he was given advice to not do what he did, often.

The three-judge panel that unanimously ordered the existing map redrawn last year is set to hold a hearing on Aug. 14, when it could decide to tap a special master.

It will likely reduce money transfer fees overall and decrease average processing time dramatically.

Financial institutions have been happy with the fees generated by not having this system in place. And the Fed is explicitly not allowed to compete with its member banks.
