It’s almost exactly what a jury determined he did to E. Jean Carroll.

Reasonable doubt is not a low bar, and you can’t bypass it by just believing. Yes, we need evidence to support accusations. People are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty.

Not that this would ever go to a criminal trial, because at this point the only way Trump is facing justice is if half the government is heading to the gallows along with him Nuremberg style.

That said, it doesn’t take much for allegations against Trump to be credible. If we just believe the shit Trump himself has said unprompted he’s a sexual predator that molests women and peeps on under age girls. There’s a reason a jury found that he probably sexually assaulted E. Jean Carroll despite having almost no evidence of the specific incident. He’s made it abundantly clear how he treats women, and it doesn’t help that he got caught in obvious lies.

There was a lawsuit over the previous giant pay package. And I recall at least threats of legal action over Elon siphoning resources from Tesla to his other companies. However, the move to Texas allows them to require at least 3% stock ownership to sue as a shareholder.

At this point, anyone who chooses to own Tesla stock is unlikely to sue anyway since they’d have to be completely unaware, an idiotic true believer, or just someone who is fully aware and is betting that the bullshit inflating the stock price will be able to push it even higher. The first two wouldn’t know to sue and the third would only be bursting the bubble their trying to ride.

Billy Madison. Said to a third grader who said he can’t wait to be in high school like Billy, who is pretending that he is enjoying high school when it’s actually horrible.

Logically, this combined with their insistence that they can revoke legal status means that no one’s citizenship is guaranteed. Everyone born in the US is descended from people who weren’t citizens. And those who went through a process to become citizens can apparently have that yanked away if the current administration get its way.

If I were the next president and had to try and undo the damage these fascists are inflicting, I’d start by deporting the bastards behind this shit in all three branches of government, starting with the the Supreme Court. Maybe just drop them all off in Antarctica.

Don’t underestimate the power of a pointy stick. Whatever size advantage the beast may have, it’s not going to be able to simply ignore stab wounds.

Look at it this way, if you were naked and unarmed, and a dozen or more little imps as tall as your knee started stabbing at you from all angles with spears that can easily rupture your vital organs, how brave would you be to charge at them and try to kill them all with your bare hands?

Thanks to a bullshit Texas law, you have to have 3% ownership in Tesla to sue them as an investor. And I doubt many people who still hold more than a token amount of Tesla stock would be inclined to sue anyway. All the sane investors got out of there a long time ago.

Let’s set aside the horrific implications for a moment. And let’s ignore the part about deporting American citizens as a form of collective punishment.

Just reading this in the most charitable way possible, he’s saying that we could let businesses sponsor the migrant workers and in doing so allow them to stay. What a clever idea, why haven’t we tried that before? Oh wait, we have, they’re called work visas. Too bad half your party opposes them (while the other half wants to use them as a form of indentured servitude). Not that it even matters that much when you are deporting people who are here legally anyway.

Doesn’t matter what promises Trump makes (even if he had actually meant them), when ICE has an absurdly high quota to meet and free reign to deport people without due process, no paperwork will be able to keep immigrants safe. They will just continue to go for the easiest targets

Because they aren’t just doing nothing, they are actively interfering.

What’s wrong with the classic volcano sacrifice?

On the one hand, he could dump absolutely unthinkable resources into primary campaigns. Given the sleazy tactics he employed previously, it’s safe to say that any primary fight he really threw his weight into would be brutal, dirty, and incredibly damaging to everyone involved. Even if he failed to unseat the incumbent, they would have almost certainly have a diminished war chest and a lot of additional baggage weighing them down going into the general election.

On the other hand, I am not exactly holding my breath while I wait for Musk to make good on a promise. And even if he did follow through, there’s no way he would just throw the money at the campaigns and let professionals handle it. He can’t resist the urge to make himself the center of attention, which can only backfire.

And third, his objection to the bill is not all that shit that it does to fuck the country, it’s that it isn’t cutting enough. Anyone he backs in a primary is probably going to be even worse than the incumbent. The only upside there is that the even more extreme candidate might be more likely to lose in the general election. but that’s not a chance I wanna take after the last election.

They’re the same IP, but they aren’t the same continuity. And I wouldn’t be surprised if they have the license for the show specifically and not the books.

Look at it this way, if a new Witcher game was being announced, how big of a difference would it make for it to be a spinoff of the existing games, a new adaptation of the books, or a an adaptation of the Netflix show?

Worse than irrelevant, it becomes another tool for extortion and corruption. Why do nothing for free when you can get paid to do nothing?

Are we not going to acknowledge how fucked up it is that someone was behind bars for five years before getting a trial?

While on ketamine.

The article cites a strategist who argues that bringing attention to immigration only helps Trump because immigration is his strongest issue. The unstated assumption is that sentiment on any given issue is basically static and unchanging, that you can’t change minds you can only change topics.

Shot in the dark, they’re doing keto in the saddest way possible.

Her argument is that they are just cutting waste. Healthcare for people who are unemployed is apparently waste. You only get healthcare if you are working a shitty low paying job for someone who got a tax cut.

It’s like my dad always used to say: “The day I can’t do my job drunk is the day I hand in my badge and gun.”

So, you need to be working a job that pays like shit and doesn’t provide healthcare, thus subsidizing the shittiest employers.

Or you need to prove you are disabled. Which of course probably requires supporting medical evidence. Which would require access to healthcare.

Oh, and even if you have an obvious disability, we’re gonna make it as hard as possible to apply for disability benefits.

Justified by the idea that somehow having access to a doctor enables people to sit on the couch and play video games all day.

Just admit that you (at best) don’t care if poor people suffer and die as long as it benefits you and your donors in some small way.
