The affidavit does not mention the full list of influencers, but is still a terrifying indicator of how deep the Russian plot to interfere in U.S. politics really goes.

Well, why not? Name and shame all of them. Normal political ads are required to tell you who paid for them (even if they only do it in the fine print). There's no reason not to hold these schmucks to the same standard just because it's TikTok vids or whatever instead of magazine or TV ads.

Don't usually hear about instances of women sexually coercing men (thanks, toxic patriarchal double standards!). Taking him at his word for the moment, it's unfortunate that this happened to him at all to begin with, but good on him for being willing to speak out.

If President Convict didn't want to get punished during his campaign, maybe he shouldn't have done the crimes.

Investing in actual education infrastructure won't get VC techbros their yachts, though.

You can take the Afrikaner out of South Africa, but you can't take the apartheid out of the Afrikaner.

If a full fifth of your workforce needs to be sacked, it's clearly a management issue, so let's start at the top.

Man is also a member of the party responsible for the dysfunction, don't forget that.

Once again, GOP proving that they never operate in good faith.

So? If you let fear of fascist reprisal stop you from upholding the rule of law, then they've won.

What a fucking clown. Shareholders should be holding him personally liable for tanking the company.

Giberson’s mother said that for her son, the 2020 election was like watching his favorite baseball team on a World Series run.

Both of them are fucking morons.

So, obviously, if you go to a brick-n-mortar store and buy something there, it counts as a sale for the store, with stores that don't get enough sales often closing. But if I order something online from, say, Best Buy and pick it up in store, how is that tracked? Does it count as a sale for the store, even though I didn't actually buy it there? If not, do companies use a separate metric (ie this store doesn't get as many sales, but people still come in to pick up stuff, so we'll keep it open)?

Not to celebrate her death, but fucking finally. The woman was literally older than the Golden Gate Bridge and had no business being in government at her age. She should've retired with some dignity decades ago.
