What I don't get from the other article,

the inspector noted that food workers, including Trump during his visit,

But this is the inspector from

According to the March 2024 Bucks County health inspection report,

How could the inspector who inspected on or before March 2024 have observed this guy "working" at the store for an event that just happened a few days ago?

Thank you for your service.

I can't thank the presidential candidate for his service though, since there wasn't any.

At some point the UN peacekeepers will... you know, need to actually start keeping the peace. By .. means necessary.

Ah, if only kbin.social hadn't gone done, I would too be post 1-year mark. I replaced that one with my own instance, but that makes me look younger than I should be...

Hmm, but wouldn't forking lemmy require you to create your own instance?

Indeed. The same wikipedia article says,

Navalny later regretted making the 2007 video.

And citing a source for that claim. His views changed and the cockroach thing didn't represent his later views, as they shifted.

This came before https://www.jpost.com/diaspora/article-825264

To me this is the biggest part,

in large part because the conflict is too volatile to predict how it might be managed days from now, let alone months from now.

Reading between the lines, I'm hopeful that Harris will enact a major change in policy down the line in this area if she's elected - but also be able to claim that while she never broke from Biden or older policy, that the "volatile" conflict went in an un"predict"able direction requiring the move.

It depends how sleepy I am. If I'm wide awake and know I won't be able to fall asleep for a few hours, I'd try to get as much done before hand (so I'll have more time later to sneak in the inevitable nap). If I can barely keep my eyes open, just make sure the alarm is set and sleep it off.

I wonder if Biden would legitimately side with Israel over the UN?

Yes.

It’s insane that’s not an obvious answer,

No, it's an obvious yes.

Ali said he felt that Biden’s apparent reluctance sends a message
“I feel like the blood is really on the hands of the Biden administration or whoever comes next if we don’t uphold our own laws when US citizens are killed abroad,” she said.

I can’t wait to someday have a president I’m not embarrassed to be associated with.

I wonder how long that wait will be... ):

Would be nice if the mods could clarify this - say for the same article, that one is explicitly required to including an extra link to a non paywalled source if one is available and the original is paywalled, in the same post.

why anyone expects this to actually pass when Biden’s spent four years saying he can’t do anything about the House/Senate.

From the Fact Sheet,

The Departments of HHS, Labor, and the Treasury proposed a rule to provide a new pathway under the Affordable Care Act for women to access coverage of contraceptives when their private health coverage is exempt from covering this benefit due to a religious objection.

Basically this is a set of administrative rule and executive action updates. Stuff the White House can do w/o needing new legislation from Congress.

And provides zero details

These are in the fact sheet, here's a quick summary: contraceptives are now available w/o cost sharing (i.e. for free) - both OTC and prescribed, private insurance is now required to disclose that it's available w/o cost sharing or prescription, offering grants for expanding coverage of contraceptives, etc.

Actually, if you read the original survery, it's not even 10% of Dems who would agree with that,

Only 9% agree.

Actually have some good news here. If you look at the survey itself, it explains that this was part of the question,

if Trump loses the election, he should declare

In other words, that 19% is assuming that he'll declare it stolen.

If it was genuine (no interference) then I can see how having nearly half the folks opposed to joining could cause some, erm, friction in the union.

But I'm willing to make an exception in this case - when Russian disinformation gets involved, it makes sense to move the bar in the opposite direction to counter them!

If I have read both correctly, they are actually different articles - this one is about warning that the Economist polling model (has moved to favour a GOP presidency) and the other one is warning about the different polling model from The Hill (which has also moved to favour a GOP presidency).

I can see the benefit of posting all of them together at once though (hey ma, look at this! all the polling models I can find are starting to agree on the outcome!)

Weird, it's not showing up for me. (That is, the article shows up just fine, no paywall, despite multiple reloads.) I've never seen a paywall from CNN.

Now I find myself wondering what that CNN paywall looks like...

It’s logical to assume if he’s being this blatant because even a little digging would show obvious crimes.

Are you saying that he'll be expected to go to jail if Harris wins? I think you just made my day.

Well, it’s probably all hypothetical, Biden wouldn’t have the balls to do anything.

Biden was never a tough-as-nails prosecutor. But this is how Harris made her name, so there's every reason to expect she's do things differently after Jan 20.

The logic doesn't even make sense. Interpol has non-country members such as Gibraltar and American Samoa ...

Even other parts of China (Hong Kong and Macao) are members of Interpol. So there's really no justification to not have Taiwan join - even if it has to do so under a funky name like "Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu"

Right? The one started in 1950 ended with a ceasefire but there was never a treaty ending the hostilities.
I guess they mean ending the ceasefire and a return to active wartime hostilities but the way they say it is certainly funny.
