Thank you. Is there some credible investigative journalism piece that pulls the threads together? From complaint to deposition to investigation to drop?

Has anyone laid out what happened to this complaint? How was it adjudicated?

The pendulum is poised to swing wildly back to the other side. The agencies aren’t going away. They provide paychecks for the loyal. This much is clear from their accusations about the current administration. It’s a confession and a way to redistribute taxpayer funds to the sycophants.

All of the “calm down” faction presumes an independent judiciary that protects “the people”. I don’t believe that to be the case anymore.

Apparently constitutional lawyers and SCOTUS have forgotten who the federal cops work for. Which is why political purity tests have been implemented in selection of judicial lifetime appointments. The core of making this coup complete and controlling the Presidency is in co-opting the judiciary.

The first one to balk will be replaced. The rest will get the hint. Impeachment won’t matter because immunity will cover bribery and high crimes and misdemeanors. Giving teeth to an already used defense. There can never be any legal basis for articles of impeachment. This ruling ruins the republic.

We could argue about what constitutes a creative job and I’m not opposed to AI. The opacity from the technology progenitors is concerning to the creative people whose information is being used in LLM training. Current law is the baseline for that protection and changes are rightfully suspicious.

Got it. All of Florida’s Senators and half of the ones from Tennessee, Ohio, Alabama, Utah, Kansas and Missouri are abdicating their responsibilities to the country in idolatrous service to a convicted felon.

Same bullshit they said about cryptocurrency and blockchain. “It’s transformative. We need new laws.” All a smokescreen to eliminate or shape existing law to their benefit. My trust in their motives ran out a long time ago.

What you can’t explicitly say you imply by explicitly not saying the explicit thing you implicitly said. Indigenous isn’t morally superior in any context. Writing that idea into common understanding belies an agenda of hegemonic change.

Would love to see that argument prevail. Is there a legal definition of “non-abusive” or even “hacking” that would support that assertion? This is partly why 230 is a problematic law although chipping at its margins will refine its purpose.

I see it as a filter that allows you to eliminate content from your feed that the original service refuses to provide because it would impact revenue from data brokering. Framing it as a potential hacking tool helps the original service argue against it in court.

Lots of people “rightly horrified” by Israel’s actions. The message being sent to the policymakers in the US and Israel by these campus protests is at best muddled and at worst antisemitic. A professed aim of solidarity with the Palestinian people is cynical.

The more direct a link from campus to outcome the more successful the protest? Seems like a good PhD thesis.

Equating Hamas with the Palestinian people is arguably justification used for Israel’s continued action. Though only a fraction of the protest support may be for Hamas it’s a convenient cosplay for the ones that do and why I believe police crackdowns by administrators play into both side’s hands.

I get the sarcasm but I don’t think he is lying about this. It’s what he believes right now and since he is not a principled man it is a belief he won’t take a stand on. I wouldn’t expect him to be pinned down on any of his opinions. And he’s too wily to be pinned down on facts.

Is there reason to think an advanced society won’t have a quality of life delta between its citizens? Or that awful living conditions will exist at the bottom end of that scale?
