As soon as I hear any politician mention faith, I know for a fact whatever they're trying to do is bullshit and likely immoral. They default to faith when there is no real justification for whatever they're trying to push. They always try to claim that because of their faith, that it is inherently moral. As if everything is black and white and grey doesn't exist at all.

But not everything in their chosen book of faith actually applies to every situation, and some can just be ignored now. But never these sections and those ones aren't important. So this is black and white, but not other things they decide are related to their faith, those can be a grey area when they want them to be.

Sounds like pretty clear voter intimidation to me. I bet if we follow it back far enough we get directly to DeSantis' office.

I went through an entire training for collecting signatures in AZ this year. I've never heard of a state sending police to verify signatures in any way shape or form. The various state laws around signatures on petitions are usually pretty clear. If there is a question at all about whether it follows the requirements, it's not counted.

This is why those petitions usually need 3-4x the minimum number of signatures to make sure it's actually on the ballot. States love invalidating signatures for the simplest things.

That wouldn't be an issue today if Apple had started supporting RCS, the replacement for the old SMS/MMS system years ago like every Android phone. Instead of trying to strangle it by acting like iMessage on iOS was the only solution.

Citizen approved ballot measures should override any existing law, unless that was also from a ballot measure.

These measures are directly approved by the citizens instead of indirectly through elected representatives. The citizens have determined this is something they want, regardless of what politicians may have decided previously.

He doesn't want it to appear that Trump's candidacy is affecting the sentencing... So his candidacy will directly affect when the sentencing happens.

The courts need to simply ignore the politics, no matter what they do to try and avoid it they always fall right into the shit because anything a candidate does has a political spin from somewhere. Just ignore it completely, act like the politics isn't a part of the case, because it isn't. If the case happens to be occurring during an election, well the candidate shouldn't have been doing illegal shit in the first place.

Welp, Israel has had their chance running the area, let the Palestinians run things for a bit and see how it goes instead.

Anything car related with BT is almost always the car's fault. They use shit hardware and don't care about the software because no one can do anything about it. No one is picking their car based on the BT support.

See the thing is, they are actually US citizens, even if they want to pretend they're not.

We don't just revoke citizenship because people want to claim they're not citizens. The US, like nearly all countries, does not revoke citizenship unless the person has another citizenship, they don't intentionally make anyone Stateless as a matter of regular policy.

Put the newest intern in charge for a year. They couldn't do much worse than the last 4 CEOs, and would be much cheaper.

They're not really though.

Brazil's complaints are about misinformation being actively spread on the platform, andTwitter not only failing to moderate it on their own, but refusing to moderate when the accounts are specifically pointed out either.

The TikTok ban fundamentally goes back to the Chinese government controlling the company. Regardless of what TikTok and the government claims, only an idiot would believe they don't have control over a social media platform based in China. Even if the servers are US-based, the Chinese government will have access whenever they want.
