Other way around. He's taking advantage of the distraction to make an order that - without hyperbole - could literally end democracy in the US.

Sometimes those officials deny you rights, including your right to live.

We had a whole civil rights movement about it. Jim Crow. MLK Jr. The laws are specifically intended to apply selective enforcement. That is their entire purpose. Why do you think these laws are always proposed by Republicans?

I can 100% guarantee that implementation will be left up to the states, and there will be a discretionary level of federal oversight. Rural Louisiana officials will be given leeway to allow votes for people who seem genuine. Meanwhile every single signature will be audited in New Orleans, and a computer glitch will accidentally purge a lot of people. Every town of 350 people will have 4 registration offices, and every large college town will have one office open 10am to 1pm with a 2 hour break for lunch. Registered Republicans will get mail, emails and calls reminding them to register to vote. Democratic party members will get one flyer that gets lost in the mail.

If you think these rules will be applied fairly to all, you're a sucker.

Less of an overhaul, more of a keelhaul

Not so much the case anymore. 10 years ago yeah, but recently most cards won't charge back interest. Interest going forward is horrendous though, so yes definitely have a plan to pay it off beforehand.

Liberals in America have willingly neutered themselves over the past 70 years. The only group in America willing to resort to anti government violence is currently in power.

All the "Trump won't be so bad" idiots.

You sure you're talking about me? I'm always attacking tankies. I'm probably already banned from .ml

I would think, "the accuracy of that statement depends on your voting record".

Keep in mind any empathetic comments are probably deleted.

We FUCKING TOLD ALL OF YOU THIS WOULD HAPPEN. And you said we were being hyperbolic.

It will get worse.

It's usually 12 months or longer.

And the chicks with 3 boobs

I believe it was something like you do the check pulls against one card and use it to pay off another

This is completely legal and very common, in the US at least, I don't know why people think it's some shady thing. It's called a balance transfer and credit card companies actually advertise low teaser rates for doing it. They want you to do it.

In my city they have a planning commission. They take into account local studies, population patterns, future construction, and ridership data. They plan out the bus routes and stops and then they have a period of public comment. If there's a need for a new stop, residents can petition their local representatives and join commission meetings to make suggestions. Stops are usually eliminated or consolidated when ridership data indicates they're not necessary during annual reviews.

I like the cromch

This IS the ad-libbing. The real best stuff is the executive order intended to destroy the voting process. This is a distraction.

And? They supported the ceasefire. Neat. They're still not going to forget their initial grievances. And Iran and Saud aren't suddenly decide to be all friendly.

What makes me sick is all the centrists and Leftists and low-information idiot voters who fucking believed all that shit about Hillary. Fash gonna fash, I expect them to be liars and hypocrites. But THOSE fucking dumbasses, the "Hillery gives me bad vibe so I vote for orange man" unga-bunga paint sniffers? That's what makes me sick.
