A 2011 case! Those gears of justice sure do move slowly.

I'm addition to the other stuff, protest movements often begin at schools, so trying to preemptively control that has benefits for a regime concerned about future protests and civil unrest.

If not for the lack of decentralization, they'd be more decentralized.

They will if China threatens to punish them for it. Making it the other country's own interest to not fuck with them is the whole point of the warning.

And testing companies can reduce prices and take on many more customers if they don't actually test anything.

"Ultra pasteurized" are just words on a carton unless there's someone verifying it.

From another story about the event, it wasn't even like odd jobs for a host, it was small job remote work for people in Germany and Asia. Stuff they would be doing at home and just kept doing during downtime on a long vacation.

Don't reply to any business emails while lounging by the pool, you need a work visa for that!

They were teenagers who had spent the last 5 weeks traveling the world. They probably just didn't think keeping up with developments in the US was important. That plus a healthy dose of white privilege (and probably a wealthy background given that they were teenagers on a world tour) telling them oppression was something that happens to other people.

Trust me guys, this time the Republicans will finally be done with Trump!

"He opposed" as in subtly redirecting the conversation to the preferred narrative of the opposition. He didn't even say that money shouldn't be spent, just that he was focused on the battleground seats. Which is barely a bullet point in a daily political activity summary, but became a whole story with a clickbait headline because news is about clicks, not importance.

The title is not supported by the article at all. Here's the entirety of its quote from Jeffries:

“Here’s the thing,” Jeffries told Jonathan Karl on ABC’s “This Week.” “I’m gonna really focus on trying to defeat Republican incumbents so we can take back control of the House of Representatives and begin the process of ending this national nightmare that’s being visited upon us by far-right extremism.”

It's at best dodging the question. I assume Jeffries will support his incumbents and isn't a friend to progressives in general, but this statement isn't making clear anything.

Holy crap is that transcript insane. The moment centrists are on the downswing Carville wants to split the vote. Also some nonsense about all employees having "a fiduciary duty to your employer".

And all this with disgraced anchor Chris Cuomo egging him on then at the last moment remembering he was supposed to pretend he was neutral.

Yeah, of you were in there and didn't have people on the outside who knew your status and could initiate proceedings on your behalf, how would you ever get out? You don't get phone calls or lawyers or court dates.

Ask Ilhan Omar. She's just a little representative and they wanted her gone. AIPAC can be a big fish in a small pond against a small number of targeted representatives who are already on shaky ground. They don't mean shit at the presidential level.

What could possibly go wrong with pairing the extremely old Biden with the even older Bernie in 2020?

By the time a VP is being chosen, she wouldn't be "a rep", she'd be the Democratic nominee for president a.k.a. the most important Democratic politician in the country.

The tolerance for "it's a loophole" or "it's a glitch" as an excuse from human beings with power and agency in a system that's never been built assuming it would be run by a computer is way too high.

Who knows why he didn't ok it, but this sure demonstrates how claims that the United States can't stop Israel from committing war crimes are lies.

They're literally 'entitled' to use Swiss roads. You don't need to ask police permission to drive somewhere. If they thought the caravan was going to park somewhere illegally, they could intervene then once an actual crime has been committed.

But none of this is about actual crime. It's just NIMBY racism.

Private prison corporations in the US must be pissed. What about America First!? We could build those gulags and extract that slave labor here on American soil, but globalist Trump is instead giving our tax dollars to some Mexicans.
