Seriously fucking jealous. My Chicagoland experience was three years in Joliet. Not nearly as cool.

On the Nebraska AG's site, there is a form where you can report complaints that you want his office to investigate. I asked that they arrest the Nebraska AG for theft of State property. I don't know if education can reverse the damage, but I know damn well that defunding public schools is extremely dangerous. Fuck school vouchers. Fuck state efforts reducing funding for higher education. I look at those initiatives with an entirely different lens now.

Here's the thing about Trump: if you look at any time he declared bankruptcy, he was claiming that it wasn't going to happen up until the moment that it did. He's never going to publicly concede the inevitable. But, he still signed the papers in the end.

The lawsuit is fucked up for multiple reasons. Obviously, there is the question of standing and states' right - "the law". Obviously there is the fact that the basis for the challenge lacks any compelling evidence - "the facts". But something I think what is being under-appreciated is how fucked up it is that the official state governments are using not only the tax dollars, but the authority, of the state to pursue a purely political endeavor. This is not fighting for water rights for all Texans, or even a partisan policy issue like abortion rights. This is purely an attempt to install a political ally, and using the state government to do so. It is extremely similar to what Trump got impeached for - using the government's funds and position for purely political gain. It is corruption, right out in the open.

I'd talk shit, but I assume Nebraska will join the lawsuit in the next 24 hours. But, this does allow them to actually introduce evidence at the SC level, right?

There was actually some sort of unknown there. If 2000 was a tightrope walker juggling lit torches high above the ground, 2020 has been a group of performance artists smearing feces on themselves while singing God Bless America. 2000 was "what's going to happen next?" 2020 is "what the fuck is this?"

This thread moves fast, so maybe it's already been addressed, but TwiceHorn's guess is correct. She sent sex videos to her boyfriend's ex-wife. She is a naughty girl. classy

Calling Epoch Times a far-right media network is missing a good part of the story. Epoch Times is the associated with Fulan Gong, a religious movement which has been persecuted by the Chinese government. It was started by a Fulan Gong adherent, and is basically the anti-Chicom Chinese paper. Do you remember those Iraqi dissidents who manipulated the US government into invading Iraq? Well, it's like that, only with a little bit of cultish doomsday appeal thrown in for good measure. This NBC article is interesting.

I think you are reading too much of a character arc here. Kemp could get away with disenfranchising a million voters, so he did. He can't flip Georgia to Trump, so he won't. Trump asking him to do so is like the old proverb "nothing is impossible for the person who doesn't have to do it." If Kemp could flip the state while maintaining plausible deniability, he certainly would. Edit - And his original actions had nothing to do with Trump. He did it for himself.

In case you are trying to remember who Corsi is, he was subpoenaed to testify by Mueller. The report indicated he had possessed knowledge that WikiLeaks had obtained Podesta's hacked emails. From his wiki page:

Let's Talk Regulations
So, you think the DOE should just set efficiency standards without any evaluation of whether they are achievable? They aren't limiting anyone from developing alternatives to these filtered techs, just establishing which techs are feasible/affordable as the basis for a reasonable goal. ["Additionally, it is DOE policy not to include in its analysis any proprietary technology that is a unique pathway to achieving a certain efficiency level."] If someone approaches the DOE and says they could achieve a certain watts/cycle based on using laser cannons, the DOE doesn't just want to set the standards at that level and fuck over the manufacturers, and subsequently the public, when the manufacturers fail to achieve that target. Or, let me guess, you don't think the DOE should set efficiency standards beyond what is currently on the market?

Let's Talk Regulations
For what it's worth, I see a bigger issue with industry codes than (direct) government regulations. For example, the International Plumbing Code is not developed by government agencies, but rather by the ICC, a private non-profit that is made up of industry stakeholders. While that may sound great, those stakeholders often represent the companies which will directly profit from more conservative rules. The IPC is then broadly adopted by local jurisdictions, giving those privately developed rules the force of law. More government could help. If the feds were to set up an organization to engage the private boards, review the rules, and then publish their recommendations on which rules to strike at the local level, it could help protect public from onerous requirements.

Let's Talk Regulations
Did you read it? Most of it is not the modifications of the rule itself, but rather the rationalization of it dealing with environmental impact, cost impacts, employment impacts, etc.. In other words, most of it is an argument that it is a "smart" regulation.

Right now I think it's questionable on whether Kemp makes it through the primary. If he does, I think Abrams wins in a walk. Trumpsters will not vote for Kemp and he can't win without them.- the trump election lawsuit thread of dominance
Unfortunately, no. There is a third group of people who think Q is fucking crazy, furrow their eyebrows at Trump feeding the bullshit, but still voted for him because a) a) money, b) abortion, c) socialism, d) fear of holding cops accountable, e) they vote R no matter what.- 2020 Presidential Election -- Biden v Trump: Sleepy Joe vs Dopey Don [Results begin on page 409]
Yep. But it would be nice to get every Republican on record either voting the for the Constitution or voting for Trump.- Section 230 discussion
Cool. I had not seen that. It was initially dismissed, but was reversed on appeal. Just settled a couple of weeks ago, but terms not disclosed.- Section 230 discussion
And correct me if I am wrong, but it is pretty damn difficult for a public figure to win one of these cases. Not to say they wouldn't bring a case as a nuisance. So, whether the attack on a politician was factual, the impact on the social media platform would most likely be the same - defending against a nuisance lawsuit they would likely win. The truth would have little financial impact on the provider. - the trump election lawsuit thread of dominance
