60 years of propaganda masquerading under the banner of legitimate News organizations will do that to a population.

Or... They also remove the moratorium to drive the point home.

Is this the law that has exceptions for undercover, environmental, and weather?

Meaning the only reason to be against it is to avoid accountability?

ICE isn't new, it was created back in 2003 when the Department of Homeland Security was created post-9/11.

The lack of any training... that's new.

Well this guy was the Vice Chief from 2022-2023 and became Chief in 2023. So that's under the Biden administration, for what that's worth.

Anyone not with their head up their ass saw the numerous warnings from hundreds of organizations and people directly involved in Trump's life and the evidence that he was literally the Russian asset "Krasnov" back before his first election. This isn't a revelation to anyone that's been paying attention. He was impeached for it. Twice. Yet here we are. Indirectly at least, you can't seriously try and claim that fucking about with Ukraine at all in the midst of Russia trying to annex it is unrelated.

I get what you're saying, but the more direct comparison would be to the Chief of Staff of the Army, not the President.

I gotta say, I spent a solid minute on Google Images trying to find a picture that made him look more badass than the professional headshot photo, but a good half of the images are him in readers.

That depends on your sorting preference. Several sorting options are very straightforward like top, new, etc.

Sex is a scapegoat for implementing surveillance and discrimination systems. The same as every "think of the children" law ever passed.

It's not about the children, it's about making it impossible for opponents to justify in the 10 second sound bite that the media allows with no further context whatsoever. And that's all of the media that 90% of people consume.

They are as far as the shareholders are concerned if Amazon is telling them about different tiers of subscription. The bullshit the company spins is just as, if not more, important than the raw numbers. Especially when companies only report mandated info and the raw numbers they're referencing aren't disclosed for comparison.

Statistics is the art of making up a narrative you want to show via numbers, and finding a way to say it exists regardless of reality.

Shareholders are dumb panicky creatures. As long as the numbers aren't terrible and you say some nice things most of them take it as gospel.

Spinning shit as a positive is a full time career in the corporate world after all.

Subscription info is definitely part of the information provided to investors. The raw numbers may not be in the financial documents, but revenue from subscriptions most definitely is and will give a general idea of changes even if the company doesn't give the numbers directly.

 

NASA and Boeing officials pushed back Friday on headlines that the commercial Starliner crew capsule is stranded at the International Space Station but said they need more time to analyze data before formally clearing the spacecraft for undocking and reentry.

When in Summit settings, searching for "mu" causes an immediate app crash to home screen as soon as the U is typed. No option to report issues or submit feedback.

Only have this device to test at the moment, but I can get it to do it every time.
