I think this is the point in the story where Elon will call them pedophiles.
Another bit I think people are missing... Signal is not a government contracted app. They're trying to avoid written records that can be FOIAed
Occasionally, on my daily walks, I see squirrels who aren't scared of humans and can catch detailed photos of them with only a smartphone. This one popped up from a dumpster to the ledge and seemed much more interested in eating than running.
If it wasn't apparent, they would mock the trains leading to Auschwitz. How far will the media let this go? Evidence so far seems to show that the billionaires who run it all view this as a great distraction for their get rich quick scheme. Capitalism is a disease.
His position is going to rapidly transition from ignoring subpoenas to "You and what army?" To "the bar association are traitors" to "we'll set up an executive branch element with tribunals" and his whole job is to bark these things behind Trump's leash to make the courts treat the cabinet with kid gloves.
He doesn't want them on his properties. Why would he want them in their cabinet? Take the hint, dipshits: You're volunteering to be a token for someone who hates you.
That does summarize the majority of their careers, though.
Friendly reminder that Walmart has staff members specifically to help their low-end workers apply for assistance programs.
Question for all of your least favorite family members: If Walmarts employees need assistance programs while working full time at Walmart, then who is benefitting more from social safety nets? Walmart or the worker?
Alternatively, if they were to have a minimum wage above the poverty line, wouldn't that fix the glitch?
Leave it up to moderate liberals to roll over and die. Way to signal his kingship guys, fucking top notch pick, that Merrick Galand. To think this ineffective dipshit was considered for SCOTUS. Literally a direct historical correlation to the rise of Hitler through ineffective and complacent liberalism from the socialist party. I guess when you construct a DOJ that doesn't prosecute billionaires the whole thing short circuits when the tyrant is one.. who could have predicted that except every leftist and historian?
Seems like a reasonable ask if they're worried for their safety.
I've said it before, I'll say it every time it's proven again: US consumers get more protection from tech company overreach from EU courts than our own. Our agencies need to have big gnarly angelfish teeth, not this wrist slapping "as long as you share the profits it's basically legal" nonsense.
Playing into looting as a means to an end for change we want to see on the left is a political dead end. I don't care if Walmart gets robbed, neither does Walmart, their insurance may care, but Walmart and businesses like it are part of the biggest lobbying groups for increased police presence and these events are a gift to their narrative.
It's fine to say I don't care about retail theft on capital owners that rob workers every day. It's a whole other thing to say this is how we go about change as a movement and that we actively support and encourage it. Just like abortions, the edge cases that barely happen are the only ones that will be talked about endlessly in media and if we're simultaneously cheering on the more common cases where the "victim" is an oil baron it's not a good look. Nuance ain't America's strongsuit.
She was one of the first high profile people on blue sky so it's not for not trying. Even this criticism though reads a bit like "You dislike capitalism and yet you participate in it." You can criticise what you partake in, why not?
Truly, this is the most relatable sisyphean trial of modernity.
