"I really hope the executives listen to them."

Do you think that they aren't participating in the insurrection? The presidential immunity question should be enough to answer this for you, before even considering that Thomas' wife was actively helping coordinate J6.

There's a coup still underway and SCOTUS is right at the front of it.

No. There are insurrectionists.

The UX people did have that fight. It ultimately comes down to "take your check and do it, or we can find someone who will"

I demand the movie industry delivers Scarlett Johansson to my room striped and covered in melted butter, but it looks like none of us are going home happy today.

David Simon has a history of public takedowns and is pretty defensive of Baltimore. He sort of ended O'Malley's presidential ambitions. I want to say single handedly, but O'Malley did a lot of work on that too

By funding Israel and not Ukraine, they get to support two. Technically three of you're counting the Uyghurs, but that feels like more of a bipartisan effort.

I mean... If you've purchased anything from HP after Carly Fiorina, you pretty much deserve whatever horrible thing they do to you.

I'm an American living in Canada and I think the law and mentality around it are silly.

That said, you're right. Those are the codified rules, and because they are codified, the hotel has taken the necessary steps to protect themselves, while going out of their way to provide this to their customer. They could have just told them no, just like every other establishment does.

I don't mind paying them more. Make it a lucrative career. You know what... Why not $5mil/year. Attract the best and the brightest... Maybe.

But make the consequences count. Any hint of malfeasance... Any remote indication that they are betraying the will of the people, make them pay it all back and put them in jail. Like... We see that you took money from Comcast, then voted favorably on their bill. Jail.

The same Russia that lost five planes last week to a country without an Air Force, or the Russia that lost 20% of it's black sea fleet to a country without a navy?
