Trump and the rest of the republicans have already been spinning this around to their supporters as a demonstration of how “corrupt liberals have degraded our country and are weaponizing the court system” and “eLeCtIoN iNtErFeRAnCe.”
Yeah, it’s been a while since Ernest has posted anything, and I don’t think he has uploaded any new code in a while. I wonder if there was a roadblock somewhere?
Ernest also said he was having health issues so I hope he’s doing okay.
There is no way this was an accident like they’re claiming. It’s deliberate pandering to the white-nationalist, neo-nazi crowd.
The whole “oops we didn’t notice that” is just a “wink-wink, nudge-nudge.” Nobody “accidentally” includes the third reich in a political ad. No-one. Zilch.
Both Khamanei and US Evangelicals campaign on how terrible the other is and then act in a way that validates the other’s worst tendencies, making a cordial relationship between the two countries nearly impossible.
Among the dead was Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian, 60. The helicopter also carried the governor of Iran’s East Azerbaijan province, a senior cleric from Tabriz, three crew members and a Revolutionary Guard official, the state-run IRNA news agency reported. IRNA said the crash killed eight people in all, including three crew members, aboard the Bell helicopter, which Iran purchased in the early 2000s.
The crash took place in a mountainous area under heavy fog.
I would guess this doesn’t actually lead to regime change in Iran, because the countries Supreme Leader, Ayatollah (85) was not aboard the craft.
He could potentially win Michigan based on this, so you’re probably right in that they did some polls and found this to be a domestically “good” move.
The auto industry is huge in Detroit. If Biden didn’t do this, I could imagine a situation where these budget-friendly Chinese vehicles actually scare the Big Three Auto Companies and the UAW into backing Trump, which would be a disaster.
I believe a defense for the tariffs is that the Chinese government is heavily subsidizing them, but I do not know how true that is.
Lol. It’s actually gotten to the point where I almost wouldn’t be surprised if there were some sort of demonic influence giving him some evil villain plot armor.
Obligatory NAL, but it reads as “pretrial proceedings,” which are hearings held prior to trial to determine things like laws pertaining to the crime, the facts, and other issues.
It sounds (to me) like that’s exactly what they have been doing since Cannon was originally appointed as the judge in this case.
What she did was cancel the trial start date, May 20th, and then set a date to resume “pretrial proceedings.”
It’s insane how Trump manages to get away with everything. Even before he became president, he somehow got away with destroying and bankrupting everything he touched while also managing to fail upwards.
Personally, I would argue that it’s more just bad business practice; non-competes are inherently protectionist and do not really fit well into the idea of a free-market (in my opinion, at least.)
Also, this magazine is “Neoliberal,” but not in the sense the term is used in leftwing circles. I also doubt many would actually identify themselves as a Neoliberal outside of this magazine.
On this magazine (an offshoot the subreddit, r/neoliberal, which itself is an offshoot of r/badeconomics), it is really about Free trade, competitive markets, pro-immigration, YIMBYism, pro-Carbon taxes, pro-international cooperation, LGBTQ+ rights, Democracy, human rights, civil liberties, due process, etc.
For more context on why it took on the term “Neoliberal” it was originally taken in jest during the US 2016 election where it became very commonplace (on reddit and twitter, at least) for anyone who wasn’t 100% pro-Bernie to be labeled and dismissed as a “Neoliberal shill.” The r/neoliberal subreddit took off, and basically, we have center-left social policies and support free markets.
However, unlike classical liberals and so-called “libertarians” we believe there are instances where the government can correct market failures. (This FTC ruling is one such instance, and controlling interest rates is another.)
While Neoliberalism as a term is often associated with the Thatcher and Reagan eras, many on this magazine decidedly do not agree with much of their thinking and regard some of the major policies as having failed, or at the very least as being ineffective.
What differentiates us from many on the left is we do not believe corporations, businesses, or the pursuit of profits are inherently evil or that government intervention is always the best solution to a problem (or that it would even make many situations better.)
We are also against protectionist policies such as trade tariffs (Jones Act, for example, increases the cost of shipping in and out of the US, passing the cost onto the average American,) unnecessary (or excessive) US occupational licenses (they act as barriers to entry,) and single-family zoning (regarded as one of the a major causes of the housing crisis and a car-centric urban fabric, at least in the US and Canada.)
In my opinion, these types of agreements should only be allowed if they come with some sort of golden-parachute severance package. Preventing people from working in the fields they are most useful and experienced in once they depart a company (either willingly or not) only benefits their former employer. It doesn’t benefit the employee, hurts competition, and is also (likely) a drag on the economy.
Getting rid of these is a victory for the average American.
The backlash was fierce. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the outspoken Georgia congresswoman, immediately filed a resolution demanding Johnson’s removal, called the bill a “sham”.
“I don’t care if the speaker’s office becomes a revolving door,” Taylor Greene told Steve Bannon, Trump’s former adviser, on his War Room channel. “The days are over of the old Republican party that wants to fund foreign wars and murder people in foreign lands while they stab the American people in their face and refuse to protect Americans and fix our problems.”
Oh, this is only the beginning of this shit show.
Trump and the rest of the republicans have already been spinning this around to their supporters as a demonstration of how “corrupt liberals have degraded our country and are weaponizing the court system” and “eLeCtIoN iNtErFeRAnCe.”
And the irony will be totally lost on them.
Would you vote for a man convicted of 34 felonies?
Asking for a friend.
Yeah, it’s been a while since Ernest has posted anything, and I don’t think he has uploaded any new code in a while. I wonder if there was a roadblock somewhere?

Setting aside the obvious budgetary problems, is the situation really such that Britain needs mandatory military service?
From an outside perspective, it seems extreme.

They do have a strange, codependent relationship.

Still, I detest protectionism lol.
Edit: grammar
They are such a disappointment. Protectionism just makes industry lazy (in my opinion.)
The US auto industry had plenty of time to build a competitive product. It’s their fault they didn’t.
Unfortunately though, they are major employers, with major unions, in a major swing state that Biden needs, giving them outsized influence.
Not a huge fan of Johnson, obviously, but it was very satisfying to Marjorie get curb-stomped so quickly.
The final vote was 359-43-7. Just 10 republicans sided with MTG.
The House to MTG
Lol. It’s actually gotten to the point where I almost wouldn’t be surprised if there were some sort of demonic influence giving him some evil villain plot armor.

Delay, delay, delay…

Utterly disgusting and disgraceful. U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon has given Trump everything he wanted in this and her bias is clear.
This is both comical and poetic.
I love this for Boris.
Yes!
I also forgot the most important part, which is that this magazine is all about worms. Worms are important.

Good ol’ Marjorie being a Russian asset again.
I honestly have no idea. It also looks like Argentina is keeping their claim on the Falklands, too, so that muddies things even further.
