Is it illegal in the USA to ship crates of cheap bourbon to the Defense Secretary?

[-] silence7@slrpnk.net 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

The laws which sprang up after the 21st amendment make shipping alcohol subject to fairly complicated regulations. The rules likely depend on both where in the US you live and where you ship them to (eg: his office in DC, or some suburb where he lives)

Gift cards and escorts. Do they have Spec's or twin peaks in DC?

[-] silence7@slrpnk.net 6 points 3 months ago

If you ever stay in a DC hotel, the glossy magazines in the room have escorts ads. I do not claim to know which intelligence service places the ads.

Pete sees that as "employee discount possible"

FedEx it. This is not an endorsement of FedEx, I'm just saying they'll ship whatever's in the box.

Don’t care… reading to children more important.

I hate that I’ve now seen this man’s tattoos and nipple piercings. The internet has ruined our lives.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
