Santa Anna didn't make it back to his home until 1837.
He was captured by Texan forces not long after the battle of the Alamo and forced to sign a treaty (after a few weeks in captivity). The Mexican government then declared that Santa Anna was no longer president and that the treaty signed under duress was null and void. Santa Anna was then exiled, but that lasted less than a year, making 1837 the first Christmas he was home with his son after the battle of the Alamo.
Here's a simple fact, there are Chinese nuclear plants that are releasing more tritium into the ocean during normal operations than Fukushima is, or ever will.
Another simple fact, all the tritium released worldwide is basically negligible when you look at the diffusion rates in ocean water.
I've got no clue what China is really wanting with the seafood ban, but it's not to punish Japan for releasing Fukushima water.
See, this shit wouldn't throw me. As a DM I love improve in my plot lines. Hell, I often don't plan things out past laying out the world and enemy motivations.
Sure my big bad has goals, but they have to work for them just as much as anyone else does. One of the most fun (for me) campaigns I ever ran was where the big bad conducted a ritual off screen, and botched the roll. He ended up killing himself.
The party knew that he had been planning a ritual of some sort and had gone into seclusion. They had decided to dismantle his organization before tracking him down.
So weeks of fighting and taking out little hidden cells of the cult, they finally find info about where the big bad was doing his ritual. Only to find a mangled rotting corpse and a closed hell portal.
The Lochner Era might have been worse than the pre-civil war era.
To know that the Lochner Era was like, just imagine this court in 10-years.
The Supreme Court during the Lochner era has been described as "play[ing] a judicially activist but politically conservative role".[5] The Court sometimes invalidated state and federal legislation that inhibited business or otherwise limited the free market, including minimum wage laws, federal (but not state) child labor laws, regulations of banking, insurance and transportation industries.[5] The Lochner era ended when the Court's tendency to invalidate labor and market regulations came into direct conflict with Congress's regulatory efforts in the New Deal.
The Lochner court struck down laws that would have lessened the impact of the 1929 stock market crash, and also struck down efforts to shorten the depression.
FDR flat out said that if they didn't knock it off, he would appoint as many justices as needed to undo the damage.
This current bill is maybe not the way to do it. Just add a few more seats (13 Total, to match the number of appeals circuits), and then maybe name the Federalist Society a hate group and ineligible for federal service in any capacity.
Jay Leno did the most to further that hit job. He spent months spreading lies, all while McDonald's became a major sponsor of his show.
The difference is that this actually is safe.
See, the radiation released is actually lower than the background radiation of standard ocean water, because the ocean is full of naturally occurring uranium oxide. It's water-soluble.
Anyway, the tritium in the discharge water is diluted so much that it will be a non-issue. This just gets headlines because people are kind of stupid when it comes to the scary radiation word, as if you weren't bathing in ionizing radiation right this very second from all the natural sources around you.
You have gamma from cosmic rays, alpha and beta emitters in the soil, and a dozen other sources of radiation around you.
A bail bondsman has more legal options for going after someone than any other type of loan officer, including the use of bounty hunters.
Oil companies are ultimately to blame. After all, it was the Rockefeller Foundation who did the early radiation studies in the 50s, and then blatantly lied about the results to make radiation sound super scary. They claimed that there was no safe dose of radiation, and that any exposure, no matter how small, led to a direct, linear, increase in cancer risk.
And then the oil companies funded politicians who declared education to be the enemy, so now Americans don't know enough physics to know that every day, they are swimming in safe doses of ionizing radiation. That ocean water has millions of tons of natural uranium oxide dissolved in it.
US nuclear policy has been based off of these lies, it's part of why nuclear power is so expensive.
Those same oil companies actually paid to found Greenpeace and Friends of the Earth to specifically advocate against nuclear power, by spreading fear and lies about how nuclear physics work.
The Rockefeller foundation still funds Greenpeace, and still requires that Greenpeace be anti-nuclear to receive that funding. All while being heavily invested in oil.
Yup, the air blower companies have also funded anti-paper towel studies. It's somewhat funny.

I seem to remember a guy being convicted for possession of child porn, and the very much adult porn star actually came to his trial to testify in his defense... I'll see if I can find a link about it, but that will be some risky searching.
2011 is well outside the Statute of Limitations for infringement...
That's three years with some wiggle room for ongoing infringement.
This is likely an intimidation/shakedown thing.
X-ray vision. He can see all the boobies he wants to. I'd imagine that he mostly got it all out of his system as a teen.
Also, it's not hard to resist a blatant setup like that if you know it's coming. Clark knows who Cat Grant is.
