even Biden booting him from Democrat circle

Not what happened, Biden went out of his way to bring Summers on to his campaign and only dropped him after progressives called him out for it (arc)

Otherwise totally agreed

not to mention horribly unjust to everyone waiting in line

Bullshit, the fact that a line exists because our systems move so slowly is what’s unjust to those people

Two other attendees said that at the time it was unclear to them whether Bove meant to sink the boats after seizing the drugs and arresting the crew — as the U.S. Coast Guard traditionally does — or sinking them with the crew and drugs still on board.

“It seemed so outlandish I didn’t take it seriously. It just didn’t seem reasonable until they started blowing boats up, and then holy s—-, does this all go together?” said one former senior DOJ official who was in the room. “Now that you look back on it, I think you can infer he probably meant just sink the boats with the people on them.”

Jesus fuckin christ, it is so frustrating how like 999/1000 times when one of their friends demonstrates obviously criminal intent right in front of them cops go dumb as pig shit and are like “When he said ‘let’s just kill them all’ I thought he was being metaphorical!”

Let’s all mentally prepare ourselves for Trump to claim he wishes he could release these documents but his gosh darn DOJ just won’t do it because they’re using them to investigate Bill Clinton or whoever and he certainly wouldn’t ever want to interfere with a federal investigation

Yeah, ask these people to define what they mean by “rhetoric” and I bet this common ground dissolves pretty quickly

Republicans blamed rhetoric by the widest margin, 73%-19%, but independents (53%-28%) and Democrats (54%-34%) were also much more likely to blame extreme political rhetoric as a factor than to discount it.

That for profit company would appreciate people doing their advertising work for them for free I’m sure

Has it actually been reported anywhere that the sandwich in question came from this restaurant chain?

Judge Gettleman has ordered Immigration and Customs Enforcement to provide three meals a day, adequate supplies of water, access to prescription medicine, clean bedding and space to sleep for any detainee held there overnight, with “adequate supplies of soap, towels, toilet paper, oral hygiene products (including toothbrushes and toothpaste) and menstrual products for women detainees.”

Holding cells and toilets are to be cleaned, and detainees should have access to showers “at least every other day,” according to the order.

If you have to order the waiter to bring you a soup the chef didn’t spit in you should probably just skip ahead to finding a different place to eat

For the government’s books, sure (if anything, it was a 0% interest loan, which is probably better than a wash strictly speaking)

But for society in general - the money was gathered from consumers but will be getting returned to businesses, so not a wash at all

Based on the elections this week and a bunch of polls over the last thirty days, I’m pretty sure they are actually

You’re remembering correctly, but grand jury indictments are only required for felony charges not misdemeanors. Way less serious charge than they were trying for originally, but if he’s unlucky enough to get 12 scumbags on his jury he could still end up being fined or doing a few months in jail.

The meetings, known as “audencias publicas,” or public hearings in Spanish,

NYT really thinks its readers are this stupid

In this tech-savvy age, when many get their questions answered online by swiping a phone or clicking a mouse, the consulate sessions are a throwback to another era, when problems were addressed face to face.

“Cliche factory on line two, something about overtime pay?”

That was quoted from the OP

And what’s the point of that? NOTHING has changed,

Not true, hundreds of individual people have been released orat leats had their deportations paused

The onslaught of legal rejections has come in hundreds of individual cases, typically filed on an emergency basis after ICE’s targets are arrested at courthouses or check-ins with immigration officers. Though a handful of class action lawsuits have been filed seeking to block the administration’s expanded detention policy, they have advanced slowly and seem weeks — perhaps months — from resolution.

Lots of terrible things are being done and any kind of justice is happening unacceptly slowly and arbitrarily, but saying “NOTHING” is happening isn’t true and makes things seem more hopeless than they are

The upcoming trial regarding the deployment of the national guard to Oregon is expected to feature testimony highlighting disputes between local police officers and federal enforcement personnel

The visible clouds must have blown away by the time this news team started their video, but it’s clearly visible in the photo on top of this article discussing the same incident -

6. People vote for Milei’s party

Sort of

Although voting is compulsory, turnout was the lowest since the return to democracy in 1983, at 67.85%, surpassing the previous record low of 71% set in 2021.

Hear hear.

I can see why this manager got the job though, he’s clearly a real stand up guy.

appears to be a potential violation of the Antideficiency Act,

If we’d had this calibur of journalism about a century ago they would have said the Hindenburg appeared to be experiencing a potential flight delay, I swear

Potential penalties for violations include both administrative and criminal sanctions such as suspension or removal from duty, fines and imprisonment

I mean, this is the sound of a journalist screaming internally “SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING”, but the time to start screaming externally was a while ago

He already has billions more than he could spend in a lifetime. It isn’t smart it’s deranged.

“Oh wow, our research shows our business model destroys the planet, better keep that a secret!” is the sort of exemplary moral reasoning I normally only expect from petroleum companies
